  Metropolitan Opera Season

  Twenty-two operas from New York's Metropolitan Opera House

  (5) VERDI: La Traviata, an opera in three acts

  The two most common legends about La Traviata are that it was a failure at its première and that it was badly received because of the contemporary (1853) settings and costumes. The former idea dates back to the day after the première; the second took root in the 1870's. But it is possible to demolish both of them as errors, using Venetian and Milanese sources that have been available all along
