La Traviata was produced for the Glyndebourne Festival Opera in 1988. John Gunter's décor and costumes illustrate the Paris of the nineteenth century against the social background of the ancien régime.
The producer draws a clear line between the splendid public lifestyle of Violetta and her modest private reality. Clocks everywhere recall the transience and brevity of the Traviata's life.
