Nat Geo Day Tour: I Verdis fodspor

Giuseppe Verdi er kendt som en af de mest indflydelsesrige operakomponister i det 19. århundrede, og hans værker er stadig populære i dag. Blandt hans mest berømte operaer er La Traviata, Rigoletto og Aida, der hver især fortæller en meget forskellig historie, men alle byder på dramatisk musik og følelsesmæssig intensitet. En rundvisning til Verdis Milano fremhæver hans musikalske geni og afslører hans lidenskabelige engagement for at blive en maestro i italiensk opera.Opdag arven, han efterlod til Milano, en by, han både elskede og afskyede, med et besøg i Fondazione Giuseppe Verdi, det hus, operamesteren byggede til at huse pensionerede kunstnere og musikere. Her får du et nærmere indblik i Verdis og hans kones liv, herunder deres personlige ejendele, møbler, kunstsamlinger og deres sidste hvilested.Næste punkt på programmet er en mulighed for at møde de nuværende beboere i Casa Verdi, hvoraf mange er internationalt anerkendte kunstnere, og høre deres ekstraordinære livshistorier. Du vil også blive inviteret til en unik optræden for National Geographic-rejsende af en af beboerne. Dit næstsidste stop er teatret La Scala. Besøg dets museum og lær fra anekdoterne bag kulisserne om Verdis forhold til teatret.Som afslutning på turen følger du i Verdis fodspor og nyder en pause på Grand Hotel et de Milan, hvor Verdi boede i 27 år, og hvor han tilbragte sine sidste dage.
