aida-2In the music of Aida the magnificence of state and military ceremonies meet tense moments of emotional conflicts of the leading characters, and the pomp of mass scenes with choirs, as well as ballet scenes with intimate passages of lyric personal confessions. Aida is not only a taking romantic story with capturing music, but also a monumental fresco with great stage setting, attracting both our vision and hearing.
