Chorus and Orchestra of Teatro Real. PRESENTATION In Aida, the grandiose and the intimate converge as in few other operas: the bloody confrontation between Ethiopians and Egyptians is juxtaposed by the love of Radamès, Captain of the Egyptian Guard, for Aida, a slave of the Ethiopians. Their love is more powerful than the hatred between the two peoples, their social differences and incompatible perspectives. This love was as solid as the wall which blocked its consummation. Verdi chose this story after rejecting several alternatives with comical or thematic plots to which he could have composed a grand opera.
