"A talent that comes only every half century or so" pronounced The Observer.

Lise Davidsen performs the arias from five of Verdi's greatest operas: 'Macbeth', 'Un ballo in Maschera', 'La forza del destino', 'Don Carlo', and 'Aida'. Through the chronological sequencing of compositions, Davidsen explores the pinnacle of 19th-century Italian opera, leading us through the journey of Verdi's emotional and dramatic development. From the psychological intensity of 'Macbeth' to the grandeur and tragedy of 'Aida', Davidsen brings her vocal power and remarkable nuance to five of Verdi's greatest masterpieces, illuminating the composer's unmatched gift for drama, passion, and human conflict.
