SPONSORED BY CHEVRONTEXACO OVER THE CHEVRONTEXACO METROPOLITAN OPERA INTERNATIONAL RADIO NETWORK, 1:30 P.M.
THE STORY
ACT I. In the Temple of Solomon, the Israelites bewail their fate: Nabucco (Nebuchadnezzar), king of Assyria, has attacked and is desecrating the city. Zaccaria, their high priest, enters with his sister, Anna, and Nabucco's daughter, Fenena, whom the Jews hold hostage. He counsels his people to be steadfast ("Sperate, o figli"). Ismaele, nephew of the king of Jerusalem, enters to say Nabucco is sweeping all before him. Zaccaria hopes for a miracle and turns Fenena over to Ismaele for safekeeping.
