Aonia edizioni. Aida è un'opera in quattro atti di Giuseppe Verdi, su libretto di Antonio Ghislanzoni, basata su un soggetto originale di Auguste Mariette. Ismail Pascià, kedivé d'Egitto, commissionò un inno a Verdi per celebrare l'apertura del Canale di Suez (1869) nel 1870, pagandolo 80.000 franchi, ma questi rifiutò, dicendo che non scriveva musica d'occasione. Invece quando venne l'invito di comporre un'opera per l'inaugurazione del nuovo teatro del Cairo, accettò. Tuttavia la prima dell'opera fu ritardata a causa della guerra franco-prussiana dato che i costumi e le scene erano a Parigi, sotto assedio. Il teatro del Cairo s'inaugurò invece con Rigoletto. Quando finalmente la prima di Aida ebbe luogo, l'opera ottenne un enorme successo e ancora oggi continua ad essere una delle opere liriche più famose. La prima rappresentazione in assoluto al mondo avvenne quindi al Teatro khediviale dell'Opera del Cairo. (Wik.)
