Denial, anger, bargaining, depression, pleading – in a single aria, Verdi takes Rigoletto on a psychological journey as he grapples with the realization that his beloved daughter Gilda has been kidnapped from his home. This opera was written a long time ago, but the intense emotions of a man whose most precious thing has been taken from him are timeless, and sadly more relevant than ever. Join David Sebba for an operatic moment on Rigoletto’s aria, and baritone Ionut Pascu in a heartbreaking rendition of the song a father sings to get his daughter back.
Direction and piano: David Sebba
