About This Song

About "Don Carlo, IGV 7, Act I: "Il glorioso Re di Francia, il grande Enrico" (Il Conte di Lerma, Elisabetta, Don Carlo, Coro)" by Covent Garden Orchestra

The Count of Lerma’s proclamation unfurls with heraldic pomp, yet Elisabetta and Carlo stand frozen in a tableau of private anguish. Public glory and secret sorrow braid together in Verdi’s glittering orchestration.
