Andrea Chénier

  • Andrea Chénier: Anna Netrebko © Dario Acosta

Andrea Chénier is a verismo opera in four acts by the composer Umberto Giordano, set to an Italian libretto by Luigi Illica. It was first performed on 28 March 1896 at La Scala, Milan. The opera's story is based loosely on the life of the French poet André Chénier (1762–1794), who was executed during the French Revolution. The character Carlo Gérard is partly based on Jean-Lambert Tallien, a leading figure in the Revolution.
