However, Giuseppe Verdi's genius ultimately triumphed, and the work became one of the most loved operas in the world.  'Libiamo ne' lieti calici' with Ermonela Jaho and Francesco Demuro at Teatro Real de Madrid in 2015 (our first stream!) ➕ The opera is currently streaming on our YouTube channel. | OperaVision | Facebook

Libiamo! 🥂 One of opera’s most iconic melodies, “Libiamo ne’ lieti calici” unites tenor, soprano, and chorus in a lively toast to life, love, and (like any good drinking song) the consumption of alcohol! Join in the festivities! Our next performance is Sunday, May 1 at 2:00 p.m. 👉 Get tickets today at coc.ca/Traviata | Canadian Opera Company
