Feuerchor from the Opera Otello

Giuseppe Verdi (1813-1901) finished his masterpiece Otello in October 1885. The libretto by Arrigo Boito was based on Shakespeare's tragedy. The Bonfire Chorus is sung in the very first act: the people of Cyprus celebrate Otello and the navy's safe return by lighting a 'fire of joy'.
