Opera San José presents a preview of Verdi’s thriller Il trovatore


Opera San José showcasing Giuseppe Verdi’s powerful drama, Il trovatore.  Set in 15th-century Spain, Verdi’s classic has it all: vengeance, war, jealousy, and passion with an emotional, heart-stopping score including one of the most famous choral melodies ever written, the “Anvil Chorus.” Il trovatore will be sung in Italian with English supertitles.  The perfect Valentine date!

 Scott surprised me with tickets to the Opera for Valentine's Day! We saw
Il trovatore, it was amazing! We had dinner at an outside cafe, very quaint, and perfect weather.  We spent a day in Carmel, and a night in Cambria. We visited Farah at school in San Luis Obispo. What a great weekend! Happy Valentine's Day!
