Va pensiero

Album by Giuseppe Verdi

Va, pensiero is a chorus from the opera Nabucco by Italian composer Giuseppe Verdi, first performed in 1842. The piece features a lyrical, hymn-like melody for male chorus supported by Romantic-era orchestration and exemplifies Verdi's early operatic style, reflecting themes of exile and longing that were significant in his development and in 19th-century Italian music history.
First released: 1998
