Almost a Memory (La traviata: Libiamo ne’ lieti calici)

"Libiamo ne' lieti calici" is a famous duet with chorus from Giuseppe Verdi's La traviata (1853), one of the best-known opera melodies and a popular performance choice (as is this opera itself) for many great tenors and sopranos. The song is a brindisi, a lively song that encourages the drinking of wine or other alcoholic beverages.
