La Traviata et Rigoletto de Verdi

In the salons of the Jacquemart-André Museum, Opera a Palazzo presents in alternation two Verdi operas in versions designed to be performed just a few meters from the audience. The proximity of the performers changes the way these stories are heard. The voices unfold in the rooms of a private townhouse, where one can follow the exchanges between the characters as in chamber theatre.

In La Traviata, the meeting of Violetta and Alfredo clashes with the conventions of the world around them. Rigoletto follows a father who wants to protect his daughter and yet precipitates the drama he sought to avoid. Each evening is devoted to one of the two operas. It also provides access to the museum's ground-floor collections.
