Beschrijving
Giuseppe Verdi’s opera ‘Un Ballo in Maschera’ contains two famous soprano roles, strong male solo roles, fine choruses and sharp dramatic situations. And yet it is not quite as popular as some other Verdi operas preceding and following it. The incantation ‘Re dell ‘abisso affrettati’ is sung by the fortune-teller Ulrica in the beginning of the second act.
