In La traviata we meet a woman who wants to follow her heart in a society governed by conventions. The opera premiered in Paris in 1853 and is one of Verdi's most played and beloved works. Ellen Lamm and Magdalena Åberg's La traviata , with a focus on oppression of power and human hypocrisy, was hailed after the premiere in 2019.
