Violetta Valery, the heroine in 'La Traviata' dies at the end of the third act. The Opera was based on "La Dame aux Camelias" by Alexandre Dumas fils, which was written for the real-life courtesan Marie Duplessis, with whom Dumas had a brief affair. She died at age 23 of tuberculosis on February 3, 1847.

The "Brindisi" drinking song plays when Edward first introduces Bella to his family, when they are making Italian food--quite fitting because La Traviata is an Italian opera. The duet is famously known for it's first line: "Libiamo ne' lieti calici" or "Let us drink from these happy goblets". Intentional irony is present here because when vampires feed, they drink! "Brinidisi" is also my ringtone!
