Elvira has it all... youth, beauty, and three determined suitors.  But her blessings turn into a curse as passion and power collide.  It is good to be king... and emperor too.  Based on a story by Victor Hugo, this opera was the first of many collaborations between Verdi and librettist Francesco Maria Piave.
Hosted by Keely and Pat.
