Yes, Giuseppe Verdi composed choral music, which is an integral part of many of his operas. His works often feature significant choral sections, showcasing the power and emotion of the human voice in ensemble. Notable examples include the choruses in "Nabucco," particularly the famous "Va, pensiero," and the Requiem Mass, which highlights his ability to blend orchestral and vocal elements effectively. Verdi's choral music reflects his deep understanding of the dramatic potential of the choir.
Using IPA symbols, Nabucco is pronounced: nɑ-'buk-ko. Another way to indicate the pronunciation is: nah-BOO(K)-koh. (The OO in the 2nd syllable is long as in "boo," not short as in "book." Be sure to say both hard "C" sounds.)
In addition to Aida and Amneris in Aida, there's also Eboli in Don Carlos. And though I don't think the term principessa (princess) is ever used in the text, King Nabucco (Nebuchadnezzar) in the opera Nabucco has two daughters, Abigaille and Fenena.
