Falstaff

  • © Javier del Real

Verdi launched himself into the composition with the ease and nonchalance of his youth, as though the comedy had liberated him from the aesthetic crisis of the opera at the end of the XIX. century and had permitted him to write for the simple pleasure of doing so. This explains how he injected musical life into a character determined to seduce two married women so that he could keep their husbands’ fortune. Falstaff ends up being an opera that encourages us to laugh at life and at ourselves, raising an ode to hope and tolerance.
