CAPTION CORRECTS THAT PICTURES ARE FROM A REHEARSAL AND NOT FROM THE OPENING PERFORMANCE OF DEC. 7. In this undated picture provided Saturday Dec. 7, 2013 by La Scala press office, German soprano Diana Damrau, in the role of Violetta, second from left in purple gown, performs during a rehearsal of Giuseppe Verdi's "La Traviata", conducted by Daniele Gatti. Although "La Traviata" is Verdi's most popular opera, it hasn't been performed at La Scala, which was long Verdi's musical home, in more than a decade.
