Giuseppe Verdi Preludio, Gualtier Malde; Caro Nome, Ella mi fu Rapita from Rigoletto 

The opening prelude is concise yet its tragic overtones set the opera’s mood as an unhappy, resentful man reluctantly transforms himself into a jester – Rigoletto. 

His beloved daughter, Gilda, appears in her garden at night with Caro nome che il mio cor. She muses on her love in a thrilling coloratura aria portraying her character: a naïve, innocent girl who looks at love as an ideal. 

The Duke of Mantua appears in Ella mi fu rapita; Parmi veder le lacrime, expressing his anger and concern for her disappearance.
