Nabucco is the third book (the original title was Nebuchadnezzar full) by Giuseppe Verdi and the one that decreed the success. Composed to a libretto by Themistocles Solera, Nabucco made its debut March 9, 1842 at the Teatro alla Scala in Milan.
It has often been read as the work of Verdi’s most Risorgimento, as the Italian audiences of the time they could recognize their political condition of the Jews in the Babylonian subject to the domain.

This type of reading is, however, mainly focused on the famous choir ‘Go, thought, on wings of gold, tuned precisely by the people jew. The rest of the drama is instead focused on the dramatic figures of the king of Babylon, Nebuchadnezzar II and his alleged daughter Abigail.

Should also be noted that the librettist Solera joined the battle of the Risorgimento by Neo-Guelphism positions, a circumstance which would justify the placement of religious authority, the inflexible priest Zaccaria, head of the Jewish faction. A view not shared by Verdi, whose sympathy and playwright whose interest focused mainly towards the more complex figures and tormented the Babylonian tyrant and Abigail.

Few may know that, originally, the name given by Giuseppe Verdi to his work was “Nebuchadnezzar”, but given the length of the same on the poster, was divided into two lines, namely “Nabucco” and, at the head, “Donosor” but If people did just the first line. Hence the name recognition of the work so far as the “Nabucco”
