Verdi: Ernani
Giuseppe Verdi's opera Ernani, to a libretto in Italian by Francesco Maria Piave, based on Victor Hugo's play Hernani (1830) was first performed on 9 March 1844 at La Fenice in Venice. It was Verdi's most popular opera until he wrote Il trovatore. Later, in 1904, Ernani was the first complete opera to be recorded.
