The Orchestra Del Teatro Dell'Opera Di Roma is one of the most prestigious symphonic ensembles associated with the opera tradition in Italy, hailing from the heart of the country's capital. Founded in conjunction with the Teatro dell'Opera di Roma, which opened in 1880 as the Costanzi Theatre, the orchestra was integral in establishing Rome as a significant center for operatic art. The theater and its resident orchestra have witnessed countless premieres and historic performances over the decades, contributing to the rich tapestry of the Italian operatic narrative.

With a repertoire that leans heavily on the works of Giuseppe Verdi and Richard Wagner, as evidenced by their recent releases, the Orchestra Del Teatro Dell'Opera Di Roma has cemented its reputation for delivering performances that are both technically proficient and emotionally stirring. Their interpretations of classics such as Verdi's "La Traviata" and "Aïda," as well as Wagner's formidable Ring Cycle, have been praised for their clarity, depth, and fidelity to the composers' intentions. The orchestra has collaborated with a slew of distinguished conductors, including the likes of Tullio Serafin and Wilhelm Furtwängler, whose legendary readings of Wagner have become benchmarks in the history of recorded music. With a legacy that extends to both live performances and timeless recordings, the Orchestra Del Teatro Dell'Opera Di Roma continues to be an influential force in the preservation and propagation of operatic masterpieces.
