Opera. LA FORZA DEL DESTINO

In Verdi’s “The Force of Destiny”, a stray bullet accidentally kills a young woman’s father, setting off an unstoppable chain of fateful misunderstandings, ruthless chases and murderous revenge: more the force of chance than of destiny. Together with the work’s celestial music, it is this depiction of the fury of chance, of that split second that can change people’s lives forever, that makes this work one of the most fascinating and challenging in the Verdian canon.
