The Victor Hugo inspired masterpiece marked a pivotal turning point in the composer's career. With several successful operas to his name, he was able to have more creative freedom with Ernani.

From 'Simon Boccanegra' to 'Don Carlos' to 'Falstaff', his genius left us a treasure trove of high drama, great art, and damned good music. I've enjoyed performing in several of his operas throughout my career, including the title role of 'Macbeth'. To honor Verdi, here is a clip of "Pieta rispetto amore" from the final act of 'Macbeth' (Opernhaus Zürich, 2001). | Thomas Hampson | Facebook
