Giuseppe Verdi is still one of the most performed and most popular opera composers today. What is striking is that throughout his life, Verdi repeatedly managed to create genuine “hits” – for in addition to late operas such as Otello and Falstaff, early works such as Nabucco and Macbeth also enjoy great popularity.
Verdi often revised his operas several times, which can be confusing. Therefore, in this list you will find all operas by Giuseppe Verdi with the year of the premiere. If there were adaptations of a work, you will also find the year of the premiere of the adapted version.
