[Shorts] Libiamo, ne’ lieti calici (Brindisi) from “La Traviata” (Excerpt) - Giuseppe Verdi
The Drinking Song (Libiamo, ne’ lieti calici / Brindisi) 🍻 is found at the beginning of Giuseppe Verdi's opera "La Traviata." It sung at a party to celebrate Violetta’s supposed recovery from a bout of consumption. Violetta, a courtesan, and Alfredo, a gentleman from the upper-class fashionable society, have just met and fallen in love. They sing the spirited Brindisi (drinking song) and celebrate life and love - just before the plot begins its tragic trajectory. 😱
