Il Giuramento, also known as The Oath, is a dramatic opera composed by the Italian musician Giuseppe Saverio Raffaele Mercadante in 1848. Set in medieval times, the story follows the love affair between a noblewoman, Amelia, and a commoner, Arrigo. However, their happiness is threatened by the treacherous Count di Walter, who seeks to marry Amelia for her wealth and power. The plot thickens when Arrigo is accused of murder and forced to take an oath to prove his innocence. The opera explores themes of love, loyalty, betrayal, and justice, and features powerful arias, duets, and ensemble pieces. Il Giuramento was a popular success in its time and remains a beloved work in the operatic repertoire.This Book Is In English.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
