Libiamo, libiamo ne'lieti calici (brindisi) - "la traviata"Libiamo, libiamo
ne'lieti calici che la belleza infiora.
E la fuggevol ora s'inebrii a voluttà.
Libiamo ne'dolci fremitiChe suscita l'amore,Poiché quell'ochio al core
Omnipotente va.
Libiamo, amore fra i caliciPiù caldi baci avrà.
Libiamo, amore fra i caliciPiù caldi baci avrà.
Tra voi, tra voi saprò dividereil tempo mio giocondoTutto è follia nel
mondo ciò
Che non è piacer.
Godiam, fugace e rapidoE'il gaudio dell'amore,E'un fior che nasce e
muore,
Ne più si può goder.
Godiam, c'invita un fervido accento lusighier.
Godiamo, la tazza e il cantico la notte abbella e il riso. in questo paradiso
ne sopraLa vita è nel tripudio
Quando non s'ami ancora.
Nol dite a chi l'ignora,E' il mio destin così...Godiamo, la tazza e il cantico la
notte abbella e il riso; in questo paradiso ne sopra il nuovo dì.

"The opera uses an orchestra with the following instrumentation:
2 flutes (fl. 2 doubling piccolo), 2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 bassoons, 4 horns,
2 trumpets, 3 trombones, cimbasso, timpani, cymbals, bass
drum, triangle, strings.Banda: 2 piccolos, A-flat piccolo clarinet, E-flat
clarinet, 2 B-flat clarinets, 2 horns, flugelhorn, 3 trumpets, 2
trombones, tambourine, bass drum, castanets, harp, 2 double bass.
Verdi and Giuseppina Strepponi had visited Paris from late 1851
and into March 1852. In February the couple attended a
performance of Alexander Dumas fils's The Lady of the Camellias.
As a result of this, Verdi biographer Mary Jane Phillips-
Matz reports, the composer immediately began to compose music
for what would later become La traviata
However, Julian Budden notes that Verdi had probably read the
Dumas novel some time before, and, after seeing the play and
returning to Italy, "he was already setting up an ideal operatic cast
for it in his mind,"
