Summary:
This memorable broadcast performance marks the only time in company history that the great Verdians Martina Arroyo, Shirley Verrett, Richard Tucker, and Mario Sereni appeared on the Met stage together. Tucker is Manrico, the troubadour and political rebel in love with Leonora (Arroyo). But she is also being wooed by Count di Luna (Sereni), Manrico's political enemy. What neither of them realizes-until tragedy strikes-is that Manrico and di Luna are brothers. Verrett sings Azucena, the mysterious Gypsy pulling the strings at the center of the story. Zubin Mehta conducts the powerful score.

All'erta! All'erta!
Di due figli vivea padre beato...Abbietta zingara
E il padre?...Brevi e tristi giorni visse
Che più t'arresti?
Tacea la notte placida
Di tale amor
Tace la notte placida! ; Deserto sulla terra
Anima mia! ; Ah! Dalle tenebre
Di geloso amor sprezzato
Vedi! Le fosche notturne (Anvil chorus)
Stride la vampa!
Soli or siamo!
Condotta ell'era in ceppi
Non son tuo figlio?
Mal reggendo all'aspro assalto
Perigliarti ancor laguente
Tutto è deserto
Il balen del suo sorriso
Qual suono! ; Per me ora fatale
Ah! Se l'error t'ingombra
Perchè piangete
E deggio e posso oredelo?
Or co' dadi, ma fra poco
In braccio al mio rival!
Giorni poveri vivea
Deh! Rallentate, o barbari
Quale d'armi fragor
Ah! sì, ben mio
L'onda de'suoni mistici
Di quella pira
Siam guinti
D'amor sull'ali rosee
Miserere d'un alma già vicina ; Tu vedrai che amore in terra
Udiste? Come albeggi, la scure al figlio
Mira, di acerbe lagrime - Vivrà! Contende il giubilo
Madre, non dormi?
Sì, la stanchezza, m'opprime, o figlio ; Ai nostri monti
Che! Non m'inganna quel fioco lume?
Ha quest'infame l'amo
Ti scosta! ; Prima che d'altri vivere.
