Verismo, meaning 'realism', was a late-19th-century movement in Italian opera that shifted the focus from kings and myths to ordinary people living vivid, emotionally charged lives. These operas confront love, jealousy, betrayal, and longing with unfiltered immediacy. The arias on this album are direct, lyrical, and often explosive: demanding a singer who can deliver both technical brilliance and raw human truth.
