Anvil Chorus

The Coro di Zingari (Italian for "Gypsy chorus"),
known in English as the "Anvil Chorus", is a chorus from act 2, scene 1 of Giuseppe Verdi's 1853 opera Il trovatore. It depicts Spanish Gypsies striking their anvils at dawn – hence its English name – and singing the praises of hard work, good wine, and Gypsy women. The piece is also commonly known by its opening words, "Vedi! Le fosche".
