Summary:
James Levine's love for this seldom-heard score infuses every measure of Verdi's music. Superstar Luciano Pavarotti heads the cast as the Muslim warrior prince Oronte who converts to Christianity out of love for the Italian Giselda (Lauren Flanigan)--before dying of the wounds he received in battling the Crusaders. Samuel Ramey is the Crusader-turned-hermit Pagano. Mark Lamos's striking production has sets by John Conklin and costumes by Dunya Ramicova.

Opening credits
Preludio: Oh nobile esempio!
Qui nel luogo santo e pio
T'assale un tremito!
Or s'ascolti il voler cittadino!
A te nell'ora infausta
Sciagurata! Hai tu creduto
Molti fidi qui celati
O speranza di vendetta
Tutta tremante ancor l'anima io sento
Vieni! già pose Arvino
Parricida!
È dunque vero?
Oh madre mia
La mia letizia infondere
Oh! Ma pensa, che non puoi
Come poteva un angelo
E ancor silenzio!
Ma chi vieni a questa volta?
Sei tu l'uom della caverna?
La bella straniera
Oh madre dal cielo
Se vano è il pregare
Chi ne salva!
No! no! giusta causa non è d'lddio
Gerusalem! Gerusalem!
Dove sola m'inoltro?
Oh belle, a questa misera, tende lombarde
Che ascolto!
Che vid'io mai?
Preludio
Qui posa il fianco
Qual voluttà trascorrere
Componi, o cara vergine
In cielo benedetto
Qual prodigio!
O Signore, dal tetto natio ci chiamasti
Al Siloe! al Siloe!
Quest'è mia tenda
Un breve istante
Te lodiamo, gran Dio di vittoria
