An honor-bound father, a naive son, and a selfless girlfriend is a description of what the Opera La Traviata is about. The opera by Giuseppe Verdi (October 9/10, 1813 - 27 January 27, 1901) -- with lyrics by Francesco Maria Piave (May 18, 1810 - March 5, 1876) -- offers an Italian musical version of La dame aux camélias by Alexandre Dumas, fils (July 27, 1824 - 27 November 27, 1895). Violetta serves as the selfless courtesan who manages to die in her true love's arms after Alfredo's father Giorgio repents breaking them up to ensure that his daughter will make a good marriage.
