The opera La Traviata is well known to most people, and its ornamental value and artistic value are supreme. It is the representative work of the famous Italian romantic opera composer Giuseppe Verdi. "La Traviata" is a three-act opera adapted by the playwright Piawei based on the novel "La Traviata" by the famous French writer Dumas. It took Verdi a month to complete all the composition work of the opera. His artistic creation and musical style have been acclaimed all over the world. One of the welcome works.
The first scene of the work is in the splendid living room of the Lady of the Camellia. The high-ranking officials and nobles of the upper class all come here to participate in the party. As the hostess, Violeta is radiant and beautiful. People dance happily here. Dayton proposes that she and Alfredo sing together "Drinking Song" to arouse everyone's enthusiasm. This scene left a deep impression on me. The lingering movements and high voices of the two protagonists here made me stare at them both involuntarily. Although I don't remember the content of the lyrics clearly, the way the male protagonist sings to express his love to the female protagonist deeply moved me, and the beautiful melody spit out the true meaning of love. Although Violetta refused at first, she was gradually captured in the end. Their affectionate kiss at the end made me think the following plot would be more interesting, and I would wonder if Violetta, the courtesan, would spark sparks with Alfredo? Or is the final result unsatisfactory and tragic? Then when the banquet was over, the Lady of the Camellia gave Alfredo a camellia, which reminded me of "Carmen", but the way of "Carmen" is relatively simple and crude, this Lady of the Camellia is more gentle. Then I wondered if all operas like flowers to express love? In the end, after everyone left, La Traviata was left alone on the stage. Her mood at this time was complicated. She didn't know whether she should accept Alfredo's heart, because although there were many pursuits of her, it was all because of her beauty, and she was very worried that she could not treat her sincerely. The first act was over in her mixed mood, but in the end she thought she could try it with Alfredo, because she was also deeply attracted to Alfredo.
The second act is about them spending a few months together in a rural seclusion away from the world. Although this day is real and beautiful, it always makes people feel that it is not very real. Because two people who already lived in a big city suddenly made such a move, it was a bit unbelievable. I was impressed by the scene in the show where Alfredo appeared in the garden in his hunting suit, and he was overjoyed to be loved by the La Traviata. It seems that everything is so sweet and beautiful. I think all the tragedies are set off by the beauty and happiness in front of them, and the progress of these two scenes also laid a deep foreshadowing for the ending of the tragedy in the third act below.
The last scene is about the ending of La Traviata. La Traviata died in the end, and she died in Alfredo's arms. This part is really poignant. I think the final outcome of this tragedy should be like this, because in Western society the concept of class is no weaker than China's, how could the upper class be with a socialite?
Finally, I would like to say a few words about the love between Alfredo and Violetta. I think Alfredo lacks trust in Violetta. When he received a letter from Violetta, he believed that Violetta had abandoned him because he was nostalgic for the extravagant life he used to be, and if he did not analyze why such a change had taken place, he would immediately rejected Violetta. For the true love he paid, and even despicable revenge against her. I really feel sad for Violetta who gave everything for him! Although I know that Alfredo is in love with Violetta, his love is not as great and selfless as Violita, the lady of the camellia. In front of Violita's love, his love seems pale and powerless. Although he finally learned the truth and regretted it, it was too late, and Violetta had already gone to another world. This is really a tragic romance.
I think, if both men and women in love can have more understanding and trust, there will not be so many love tragedies in the world! But it is impossible for the closest people in this world to understand and trust each other, let alone both men and women in love! In fact, isn't the most important thing among couples is understanding and trust? Because of understanding, they know each other and cherish each other; because of trust, they give everything and even life to each other. I think this is the most important thing for two people who love each other to go through this life together!
