NOTES

Title from title frames

In the creation of his opera Nabucco, Giuseppe Verdi played a key role in the movement for Italian unification. Study the series of 19th-century rebellions against Austrian rule that culminated in the two Italian wars of independence. Observe how the music and poetry of Nabucco came to be identified with the Italian people’s quest for nationhood, ultimately leading the composer into a direct participation in the political process that forged an independent Italy
