The music is vital and easily accessible, and the theme, like several of Verdi's masterpieces, is current and universal

In Vespri Siciliani is a story about a people or country that is occupied or taken by foreign and tyrannical powers, and where the rebellion of the conquered Southerners is below the surface. The mixture of vengeance over abuse, grief over loss and longing for freedom is a potent energy that can be triggered in an instant under given circumstances or events.

It is the narrative of the human dilemmas that arise under the current political and societal framework; dilemmas between duty and love, between obedience and rebellion, between the personal and the collective and between revenge and reconciliation.

In the face of these main characters, and through their role interpretations, and not least Verdi's fabulous music and orchestration, the audience gets the opportunity to be touched emotionally, intellectually and socially - and in this way the art form and work has a potential for various forms of reflection.
