Betrayal, revenge, passion and politics are at the heart of Verdi's opera, recounting the tragic story of the 14th-century Doge of Genoa, his estranged daughter Amelia and the vengeance of her jealous admirers. Andrew McGregor and Juliet Giraldi introduce this new production from the Teatro Comunale in Florence.
