Teatro Filarmonico (Verona)

Teatro Filarmonico (Verona)

The Teatro Filarmonico or Verona Philharmonic Theatre is the main opera theater in Verona, Italy, having been built in 1716, and later rebuilt after a fire of January 21, 1749, and again after the allied bombing of February 23, 1945.

History

Verona needed an opera house, so it was decided in the early 1700s to build a theatre worthy and large. Work began in 1716 and lasted 13 years. Finally, inauguration was on the evening of January 6, 1732, with the pastoral drama "La Fida Ninfa" by Antonio Vivaldi, a libretto by Scipio Maffei. The opera season became famous, and the performances led society events. But on January 21, 1749, fire eventually spread in the theatre. Rebuilt, the theater was re-dedicated in 1754 with the opera "Lucio Vero" by Neapolitan composer Davide Perez. The opera had a limited success. Corsican in the Eighteenth Century, during the French invasion, a long series of celebrations were held in the theater, such as the "Cantata per la Santa Alleanza" ("Cantata for the Holy Alliance") of Gioachino Rossini. The theater hosted international singers, and among its repertoire appear the most famous works of Italian and foreign melodrama.

On the tragic night of February 23, 1945, the theater collapsed under the Anglo-American bombing. The Academy Philharmonic announced that it would try to rebuild the theatre exactly as it had been before. The proceedings lasted a long time: the theatre was inaugurated again in 1975, with the opera "Falstaff", that the three burle by Antonio Salieri.

The theatre still hosts in the winter season works, ballets and concerts. The operatic repertoire is one of the most famous for Italian operas and international ("La Sonnambula", "The Barber of Seville", "Tosca" ...) and the works of non-repertoire (A day of the kingdom, "Manon Lescaut" of Auber, "Loreley of Catalani" ...).
