The opera "Il Trovatore" crowns the famous Verdi trilogy (”Rigoletto”, ”Il Trovatore”, ”La Traviata”) leaving as a legacy in the history of lyrical theatre vocal archetypes relevant to the Italian romantic opera. This research aims at the formal and stylistic analysis of the vocal discourse of the character Leonora, considering the solo moments and outstanding overall moments, attributed to the role. In carrying out this approach we will highlight the vocal peculiarities of the character, as well as relevant technical and interpretive aspects. In essence, the research represents a correlation between the structure of the moments that make up the vocal discourse and the nature of the character’s Verdi vocality, Leonora’s role summing up various technical and interpretive requirements.
