Giuseppe Verdis opera La Traviata with Irene Zelinkauskaite in the leading role as Violetta Valery, she sung the leading role beautifully. Nearly all the difficult parts ending the first act were there, all the hight tunes perfect, and she did a touching role, some of us were crying in the end. Vytautas Jouzopaitis is the very best baryton in Lituania, wonderful
. For the first time I heard the wonderful tenor Edgaras Montvidas, he also looks elegant and masculin. Eugenijus Chrebtovas as Doctor Grenvil was good, and Vilhelma Moncyte as Flora, both  singing for the first time.

It is an interesting scenografi, and I very much appreciate the video processions, which makes a good atmosphaere.

As La Traviata is having a long tradition in the soon 95 Years of The Lithuanian National Opera, as its first performance which took place took place on December 31, 1920. It is importent for the operahouse, that their representations are first class

La Traviata (The Fallen Woman) is the eighteenth of Verdi’s operas and the first one to draw on the reality of the day. The opera premiered at the Teatro La Fenice, Venice, on 6th March 1853. After the spectacular success of Rigoletto and Il Trovatore, the reception of this opera came as a shock to the composer – it was an unmitigated fiasco. The failure was blamed on the poor staging and the miscasting of singers. “Is it my fault or that of the singers?” Verdi wrote in a letter. “Only time will tell.” The composer evidently sensed that the reasons for the failure had been more serious
. The public must have got indignant at the choice of the protagonist – a downcast woman shown in the milieu, likewise corrupt.

A libretto by Francesco Maria Piave adapted from La Dame aux Camélias inspired Verdi to compose one of his most beautiful operas
. Re-staged and performed at another Venetian opera house, San Benedetto, on 6 May 1854, La Traviata was a triumph. Alexandre Dumas couldn’t be more right when he said, “Fifty years later, my La Dame aux Camélias would have sunk into oblivion, but Verdi made it immortal.”
