Giuseppe Verdi

Giuseppe Verdi learned to play the organ during his childhood in Busseto, Italy, where he was initially taught by his local music teacher, Ferdinando Provesi. Verdi's early exposure to music came through his family's involvement in church activities, which provided opportunities to practice and perform. His talent was soon recognized, leading to further studies and experiences that shaped his musical development. Eventually, he became proficient in organ playing, which influenced his compositional style.

In a way, many people in the opera are responsible (whether directly or indirectly).

Gilda's direct cause of death is the stabbing administered by Sparafucile (a hired assassin). However, her father, Rigoletto, was the one who hired him, as he was planning to kill the Duke. But Gilda sacrificed herself because she loved the Duke. Sparafucile told his sister (Maddalena) that if anyone came to the inn before midnight (the time he was supposed to kill the Duke), that person could be killed and put in the body bag instead. So Gilda, knowing this, returns to the inn and gets stabbed by Sparafucile.

So, to make a long and somewhat complicated opera's story short:

Sparafucile is responsible because he stabbed Gilda.

Rigoletto is responsible because he hired Sparafucile for the job.

Gilda is responsible because she essentially commits suicide to save the Duke.

The Duke is responsible because he seduced Gilda in the first place.

Maddalena is responsible because she convinced Sparafucile to kill someone else instead of the Duke.

Verdi composed verismo opera.

An honor-bound father, a naive son, and a selfless girlfriend is a description of what the opera La Traviata is about. The opera by Giuseppe Verdi (October 9/10, 1813 - 27 January 27, 1901) -- with lyrics by Francesco Maria Piave (May 18, 1810 - March 5, 1876) -- offers an Italian musical version of La dame aux camélias by Alexandre Dumas, fils (July 27, 1824 - 27 November 27, 1895). Violetta serves as the selfless courtesan who manages to die in her true love's arms after Alfredo's father Giorgio repents breaking them up to ensure that his daughter will make a good marriage.

Verdi's title bandit is the character of "Rigoletto," from his opera of the same name. Rigoletto is a hunchbacked court jester who seeks revenge against the Duke of Mantua, who has wronged him. The opera explores themes of love, betrayal, and the consequences of one's actions, ultimately leading to tragic outcomes. Rigoletto's complex character and emotional depth contribute to the opera's enduring popularity.
