Zubin Mehta – Verdi: Nabucco: Va Pensiero (excerpt)

This excerpt from the “Va pensiero” chorus was recorded in 2001. It was part of the “Gran Gala di Verdi” on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of death of Giuseppe Verdi. Performed at the Teatro Padiglione Palacassa in Parma by outstanding singers such as Marcelo Álvarez, José Carreras and Plácido Domingo. The evening’s programme features the great favourites from Verdi’s œuvre from the “Va, pensiero” to “Donna è mobile” and scenes from “Il trovatore”, “Otello” and “Falstaff”. Altogether, a great homage
