Verona - Traviata - Cura

.
I made a new discovery. When I say "discovery" I mean pictures attached to a performance.

.

Back in 2003. There was a performace (was it the only one? Arena di Verona doesn't have an archive) during the Opera festival that takes place in Verona every year. According to the person who was there and whose thoughts you can read HERE, it was "a semi-scenic version". Jose Cura and Angela Gheorghiu portrayed Violetta and Alfredo in that open air, marvelous venue.
