From Basement to Brooklyn: Verdi’s Lost Ballet Finds New Life
In the sumptuous acoustic embrace of St. Ann and the Holy Trinity Church, the Brooklyn Chamber Orchestra, under the skilled direction of Philip Nuzzo, delivered a concert of extraordinary historical significance and artistic merit. The evening’s centerpiece—Verdi’s Lost Ballet—introduced American audiences to ballet music by Giuseppe Verdi that had lain dormant in a basement for 175 years.
