In the centre of the dramatic story of this opera is the love of the Gypsy Azucena for her adopted son and her effort to revenge her mother’s violent death. 15th century Spain, military camp, gypsy caravan, jail and even a burning stake form a romantic backdrop to one of Verdi’s most popular works. It is also said to be his most melodic opera.
