Host Nicolas Reveles sets the stage for Verdi's classic tragedy, one of the most beloved of all operas. Based on the classic novel La Dame aux Camilias by Dumas, La Traviata is a tale of doomed romance among the glittering, decadent "demi-monde" of 19th century Paris, set to haunting music. (#7486)
