The debut in Milan at the Theatre of La Scala on March 9th 1842, was a great success and marked the beginning of a long tour in many Italian and European theatres. According to critics, Nabucco revealed Verdi’s passionate personality, its success deriving from the grandiose evocative power of the “Va’ Pensiero”, one of the most famous melodies in the world, celebrating the Hebrew’s homesickness. The Italians during the nineteenth century, still not united as a nation and still dominated by the Austrians and Spanish, felt it as their national song, a song of a people longing to see their land free from the enemies and united once again. | |
