Norma est considéré comme l'un des opéras les plus complexes et les plus exigeants techniquement de tout le répertoire lyrique italien. L'histoire de l'amour interdit entre la prêtresse druidique Norma et le proconsul romain Pollione met en lumière des thèmes universels tels que la trahison, l'honneur et la rivalité. Vincenzo Bellini a créé une musique d'une grande beauté, alternant moments dramatiques et passages lyriques d'une grande intensité émotionnelle.
