Professor Robert Greenberg tells the story of how the greatest composer of Italian-language opera was forced out of retirement by his wife. In the 14 years between 1839 and 1853, Giuseppe Verdi composed 19 operas. According to Verdi, he grew tired of composing, and was already thinking of retiring at age 32. As it turned out, retirement would wait another 26 years, when, after the premiere of Aida, he announced that he had written his last opera. Verdi's wife, Giuseppina, hatched a plot in 1879 with intent to get him back to work. Eight years later, Verdi's comeback premiere became one of the greatest triumphs in the history of opera.
