Excellent insights like this into the structure of the music of a famous opera are all too rare. They are increasingly valuable as we move even further from the period of composition, and become less familiar with the idiom of the music. A reminder of (in this case) Verdi's innovative genius, and how his composition transcends its period and becomes timeless.

Thanks Andrew!
My first opera when OA brought it to Brisbane. Enthralling. The sets were amazing too.
Thank you!
Terrific
I think I will enjoy #rigoletto !
