Summary:
"Two enemies, passionate and vengeful; an old gypsy woman with a mysterious bond to them both, and a young woman who must either betray an all-consuming love or face death itself-- these are the fiery elements that govern Verdi's unforgettable 1853 masterpiece of obsession, madness and retribution"--Container.
