The invasion of Malta by the Ottoman army of some 200 ships is recorded as one of the most merciless and bloody battles in history, in which the Knights of Malta successfully defeated the besieging army after a fierce four-month siege. The show portrays the Ottoman army from the beginning of the invasion to the climax of the battle and the final victory celebration with a true-to-life representation of the emotions of the various people involved. The music is so realistic that it seems as if the battle is happening right in front of your eyes, and is accompanied by the magnificent sound of the orchestra. Verdiana = Verdi-style\" is a fun piece that transforms Verdi's music into samba, bossa nova, and tango styles. Verdi's drama, filled with a sense of urgency, is enveloped in a tropical atmosphere.
