The musical spaces of violence, protection, escape, or exhibition form the acoustic habitat of the voices that their bodies left behind to form vocal clones and immortal warriors of a posthuman and techno-futuristic chorus that proclaims an opera of the future that is as sensorial as it is political.

The work is set in the home of the aristocratic family Colonna in baroque Rome, where a singer, a writer, a musician, a choir and an instrumental ensemble are on stage awaiting the arrival of the composer..

"Never before has Debussy’s piece seemed so entertaining to me as in this stimulating interpretation. In front of an abstract mosaic glowing in various colors, dancers appear in geometrically styled costumes—color particles in a kinetic image that at times tells of animalistic forces and claws, at other times of spirits and dreams—and sometimes of erotic desires."

Médée

[...] Much can be learned about the art of composition, the interaction of text and music, and the visualisation of a multifaceted tragic event, whose magnitude and power touches the audience. Charpentier’s opera is unique in its combination of French classicism and Italian melodic beauty, and exceptional in its richness of expression and timbre. Every character is sharply drawn, as is the drama itself, staged by Peter Sellars. A bridge is built from mythical times to the present, underlining once again the relevance and continuing impact of ancient Greek mythology in the present day. (...) A brief dance of melancholy and national mourning is followed by a fun explosion of sexual liberation. Medea is capable of terrible retribution. But Jason is tired of being a hero. ‘What has Glory done for me?’ he asks himself. The public is anxious about the impending war. [...]

Back in the freedom of the forest, she founds a family with a fox and is then shot by a poacher. Inspired by an illustrated novella by Rudolf Těsnohlídek, for this opera, which premiered in 1924, Janáček created a highly sensual, impressionistic score that reflects the mutual interaction of humans and animals. This “Czech midsummer night’s dream” will be directed by Ted Huffman, making this his premiere at the Staatsoper: at the podium, the celebrated Janáček-expert Simon Rattle. (...)

Die schweigsame Frau
Next dates:

[...] In the early 1930s, for Richard Strauss — approaching 70 — it was an auspicious moment when Stefan Zweig, a renowned author known for his artful, profound novels and plays, proposed writing a new libretto. In a mutually inspiring collaboration, they created a truly “comic opera” based on a play by Ben Jonson from the Shakespeare period filled not only with striking characters, tempo, and wit, but profound reflection as well. “The opera is a perfect, but perhaps for the twenty-first century,” according to Strauss himself, who in a difficult, dark time created a work of creative compositional virtuosity and a relaxed sense of humor, a story of people longing for rest or who lose themselves in busyness. (...) But Henry did not come alone, but with an entire theatre troupe, who then shows up in Morosusʼ apartment. Henry, who started a career as a singer, presents the members of the company, including his wife Aminta, who is also a member of the company. Aminta is to convince Morosus as a reticent, silent woman, he should then marry her in a fake ceremony, but after a brief period she should change her tune entirely and turn into a raging fury who does anything but provide Morosus with the comfortable life he was looking for, instead making it a living hell. (...) “A whirlwind of sound figures and fragments sweeps through the orchestra, whistling, flashing and crashing. [...]

[...] Set in a faraway island paradise, Georges Bizet tells the story of a love triangle complicated by true friendship. Inspired by a subject matter infused with the exoticism so popular at that time, he produced a score with colourful instrumentation, enchanting melodies and powerful theatre music, which finds expression both in large-scale choral tableaus and chamber-play-like scenes between the main characters. (...) Act one A beach along an isle inmidth the sea: as always, pearl diving season begins at this time of year, and the fishermen have gathered around their leader Zurga. Leïla trusts the old man and tells him how she once experienced a highly dangerous situation: risking her own life, she once saved the life of a refugee who then gave her a pearl necklace that she has worn since then.

In the 1920s, a large number of operas composed by Vivaldi were rediscovered, including »Il Giustino«. These manuscripts shed new light on the composer’s work, who was primarily celebrated as a composer of Baroque era instrumental music at that time but whose operatic works were largely unknown. (...) He does not suspect that Flavia in reality is Vitaliano’s brother Andronico, who is in love with Leocasta and pretends to be a woman in order to be near to her.Vitaliano remains stubborn.

Don Giovanni

[...] Sometimes as a cautionary tale of a wrongdoer who eventually gets his comeuppance, sometimes as an allegory of a freedom-loving, unconventional libertine who questions the moral and religious ideas of his day: The figure of the irresistibly attractive yet unscrupulous Don Juan (or Don Giovanni) is a modern myth, among whose numerous adaptations Mozart’s "dramma giocoso" stands out. At a rendezvous with the wealthy Donna Anna, the womanising Don Giovanni is apprehended by her outraged father, the Commendatore, who Giovanni kills in the ensuing duel. (...) Angry at these accusations, Giovanni is already thinking of his next conquest.When a female voice is heard complaining angrily about her husband’s infidelity, Giovanni is immediately willing to console the unhappy woman. Ottavio has now dispelled even his last doubts about Don Giovanni’s crimes, and he decides to ensure his punishment.Despite the betrayal she has suffered, Donna Elvira is worried about Don Giovanni – she senses that his end is near. Giovanni takes pleasure in telling Leporello how he met a woman who mistook him for Leporello. At that point, they hear a voice threatening to end Giovanni’s life. [...]

[...] In his last opera, Claudio Monteverdi drew for the first time on material with real historical figures, and thus created the first "sex-and-crime story" in operatic history. Like a political thriller, this early Baroque masterpiece tells a story of power and passion and of occasions where it is abused. Monteverdi manages the feat of exposing his partially caricatured figures, whose melodies are very differently characterized, in a sometimes humorous fashion while also creating empathy for them. His extremely expressive music, with sensual melodies, bold harmonies and astoundingly avant-garde style, tempts us to cheer on the adulterers, despite their scandalous behaviour. (...) Opera musicale in a prologue and three acts (1642) Music by Claudio Monteverdi Text by Giovanni Francesco Busenello (...)

[...] This opera is a masterpiece of the Venetian Baroque by one of its most prominent composers. Written and brought to the stage for the first time almost precisely in the middle of the seventeenth century, Francesco Cavalli’s La Calisto is characterized by its musical inventiveness, an extraordinarily focused rendering of the characters, and a sophisticated libretto filled with serious and comic situations as well as characters. Director Stefan Herheim will stage this colorful kaleidoscope of words and sounds using a kind of “baroque sci-fi aesthetic” with all the thematic variety and color that inheres in this opera, ending with a starry sky.

[...] In a villa by the sea in a summer resort, where Figaro is on holiday, emotions run high, old grudges are settled, and intrigues spun. The trilogy of Da Ponte operas, written in the mid- to late 1780s based on texts by the eponymous Italian librettist, has achieved fame for a good reason. Figaro, which was already a success during Mozart’s lifetime, has become a prime example of a "musical comedy" – admired by many, and a favourite among directors, conductors, singers and audiences. (...) But Figaro wants to frustrate the count’s plans.But danger is lurking not only from the Count, but also from another side: Marcellina remembers a promise that Figaro once made her to marry in return for a loan, while the doctor Bartolo, still hurt over a story from the past, swears his vengeance. To pique the count’s jealousy, Figaro had an anonymous letter written to him mentioning a rendezvous the Countess had with a secret admirer.After singing a cavatina for the Countess and Susanna, Cherubino is dressed as a girl. (...) And humour is the sharpest weapon of the desperate. That is why it is a duty, indeed a must, to enjoy this Figaro by Jürgen Flimm at the Staatsoper to the full."(ARD Hörfunk) “What Flimm does with the ensemble is a joy to watch. It is rare to see opera singers with such vitality of movement and performance.”(Berliner Zeitung) [...]

[...] Violetta Valéry is a noble courtesan in Paris who has "strayed from the path of virtue" and leads a life that oscillates between splendour and misery. Only once did Giuseppe Verdi turn his attention to a contemporary subject, Alexandre Dumas the Younger’s La dame aux camélias. As a novel and a play, Dumas based his story on true events. (...) Gastone, Vicomte de Letorières, introduces to her a new guest, Alfredo Germont, who has been her admirer for a year and offers her his love and a restful life. Violetta is forced to decide, between Baron Douphol, who has been paying her for a year, or Alfredo, whom she loves like no other before. In the early morning after her guests have departed, Violetta tries to decide what she wants: a serious love, or a life that is entirely dedicated to pleasure. (...) “Being close to the last things is a pretty good prerequisite to produce an exceptionally good La traviata. Dieter Dorn has succeeded in doing this - with the aforementioned artistically incomparable and energetic Geronto troupe, ravishing young singers and a cool set designer who centres the action on a 17th century still life.” “Verdi´s realistic drama was turned by Dorn into a universal, mythical tale – as a provisional title of his opera read – of `Love and Death`.”(Opera) [...]

[...] His heroic opera about Ariadne, tormented by lost love and yearning for death, must be performed at the same time as a piece by a burlesque troupe. In line with the patron’s wishes (and against the composer’s will), the carefree Zerbinetta and her suitors are inserted into the Ariadne opera. The result, as Richard Strauss’s librettist Hugo von Hofmannsthal described it, is a "juxtaposition between the woman who only loves once and the one who gives herself many times". Through the archetypal opera characters, a confrontation is staged between two different models of love and life that is sometimes humorous and playful, sometimes serious. (...)

Aeneas continues on his journey to form a new kingdom in Italy, while the abandoned Dido is left no alternative but to stay. Henry Purcell composed his one "genuine" opera in 1689, a work that stood out for its musical ingenuity. Dido’s famous lament, with which she ends her life, and the opera draws to a close, and where an entire world is evoked in a few words, demonstrates Purcell’s extraordinary expressiveness. (...) Opera in a prologue and three acts (1689) Music by Henry Purcell Text by Nahum Tate based on Book IV of Virgil’s "Aeneid" (...)

Melencolia

[...] Starting with Albrecht Dürer’s engraving Melencolia I, numerous figures and themes are presented on the stage of Melencolia and set in relation to one another: visiting football stadiums and digital cemeteries from the video game “Second Life”, Austrian folk songs, virtuoso instrumental music and Japanese karaoke, AI voice clones and digital guests including the Iranian ney-anbān virtuoso Saeid Shanbehzadeh, Brigitta Muntendorf and Moritz Lobeck go in search of the liberating melancholic mood in a series of seven tableaux. Tailored for 14 musicians of the Ensemble Modern and accompanied by singers from the Apollo Choir, this work addresses the historical complexities of melancholy – perceived variously as an illness, as a way of overcoming earthly suffering or as the sister of genius. The puzzling polyhedron in Albrecht Dürer’s engraving has become a symbol for these contradictions amid the human desire for salvation. Melencolia combines classical performance with cutting-edge approaches at the intersection of art and technology and transcends the superficially spectacular. (...)

[...] At the end of his illustrious career in Paris, which stretched over five decades, he turned to his most ambitious operatic work Les Contes d’Hoffmann (The Tales of Hoffmann), an opéra fantastique based on a play that premiered in 1881. The audience is immersed in a world full of odd characters and situations, fantastic elements with several demonic, breathtaking moments and a vital, rich score. The title character, modelled on the complex Romantic writer E. T. A. Hoffmann, finds himself among his own stories, fascinated equally by art and by love, attracted by the female characters and duped by his rivals. (...) Act One (Prologue) The great poet Hoffmann is finished. Once a highly regarded artist, he is now a broken man, a wreck who finds his sole consolation in alcohol and his fantasy Stella, his idée fixe of a supernatural woman. Even before she is introduced to the eager public, Hoffmann succeeds in catching a glimpse of her, and is immediately enchanted. When Coppélius, who claims to be a friend of Spalanzani and deals with optical devices, sells him a pair of magical glasses, his fate is sealed: he falls in love and thinks he hears a declaration of love in each of her mechanical words.

With the delightful naivety of his characters, Donizetti and his librettist Felice Romani take superstition and credulity for a ride in a lovingly tender manner.

[...] But in the face of Mimì’s illness, the struggling artists are caught up in harsh reality. In a loose sequence of scenes, Puccini and his librettists not only tell a love story with a tragic ending, but also portray the subculture of bohemians in 19th-century Paris: their desire for freedom, both socially and artistically, their self-image as bogeymen of the bourgeoisie, and their everyday life that vacillates between excess and survival – a lifestyle that Puccini himself cultivated during his studies. In poetic images, Lindy Hume presents the work as a nostalgic retrospective of a carefree, all-too transient youth. (...) Act one Christmas Eve in a garret in Paris Rodolfo, a poet, and Marcello, a painter, are finding it difficult to work. It is cold in their garret. Rodolfo generously sacrifices his latest play to make a short-lived fire in the stove. Their friend Colline, a philosopher, joins them.

[...] Giselle, originally titled Giselle, ou les Wilis, premiered at the Paris Opera on June 28, 1841 and stands as a pinnacle of the era in which dance became the embodiment of the supernatural. At its centre is a young peasant girl who loves to dance and falls in love with the nobleman Albrecht, unaware that he is concealing his true identity. In the second act, the «white» realm of Romantic ballet, Giselle meets Albrecht once more. Her movements become a language of compassion, dissolving the boundary between life and death. Giselle epitomises Romantic ballet and marks a turning point in dance history. [...]

[...] Among his final compositions are the Vier letzten Lieder, completed in 1948, which revolve around the great themes of life and death, featuring a sensitively balanced relationship between text and music and a powerful impact; they are deeply personal and moving. With the Alpensymphonie, premiered in 1915, Strauss concluded his series of tone poems, through which he elevated both the art of program music and that of orchestration to a new level. The experience is a musical journey through the high mountains, from early morning into the night, featuring sunrise and the exhilaration of reaching the summit, but also perilous moments and a powerfully erupting thunderstorm.

[...] Mozart brought his wealth of experience with Italian opera to this work, always with an eye for creating a lively, exciting opera experience, combining captivating melodies and vocal brilliance with deeply felt emotions and striking profiles for the characters with their different life worlds. (...) Together with Konstanze and her maid, the Englishwoman Blonde, Pedrillo has also been taken prisoner. Bassa Selim, a Spaniard who moved from Christian Europe to Turkey and converted to Islam, tried to seduce Konstanze, according to Pedrillo. Konstanze mourns her fate and the violent separation from her beloved Belmonte. Selim begins a new extortionary attempt at seduction. But his threats are in vain, since Konstanze fears neither violence nor death. (...) “By casting the comedian in Mozart’s *The Abduction from the Seraglio*, the theater on Unter den Linden has pulled off a coup.”(Tagesspiegel) “...this portrayal of Mozart is dazzling, lively, majestic, and yet as supple as a blade of grass in the wind.”(Tagesspiegel) [...]

Orfeo ed Euridice

[...] Few works have had such a profound influence on the development of opera as Christoph Willibald Gluck’s Orfeo ed Euridice, which premiered in Vienna in 1762. It exemplifies a whole host of contemporary operatic reforms. The traditional opera seria was challenged and to a certain extent superseded by Gluck’s azione teatrale, which emphasised natural, authentic expression by the characters. (...) Act oneAt the grave of Eurydice, Orpheus mourns the death of his beloved wife, while a group of mourners enacts the funeral rite. In despair, he turns to the gods and demands that they return Eurydice to him. Then Amor appears and calls Eurydice back to life as a reward for Orpheus’ fidelity. [...]

[...] The same source material that later inspired Mozart’s Italian opera seria »Idomeneo« – here, as a French tragédie lyrique. Neptune, the sea god, only agrees to let King Idoménée survive a storm unscathed when the king promises to show his gratitude by sacrificing the first person he encounters on his native shores. The gods Venus and Neptune, thirsty for vengeance, also deliver impressive performances and bring their victims – unlike in Mozart’s version – to a tragic end. With André Campra, a composer who is largely unknown in Germany takes the spotlight in the BAROCKTAGE 2021. (...) TRAGÉDIE EN MUSIQUE IN A PROLOGUE AND FIVE ACTS (1712/1731) Music by André Campra Text by Antoine Danchet (...) In addition, he admits his love for her, which she rejects in shock. The unified Cretans and Trojans sing a hymn to the power of freedom and love. An abrupt ending is put to the celebrations by Idamante’s confidant Arbas, who brings news that Idoménée’s ship has sunk in a storm. When she wants to board the ship with Idamante, a new storm suddenly brews up. Proteus announces that a sea monster will hinder departure and wreak devastation everywhere. [...]

[...] He is then cursed before the entire court by the distraught father of a woman he has dishonoured. Rigoletto, however, hides his daughter Gilda from the shameless goings-on. When Gilda succumbs to the Duke’s arts of seduction, Rigoletto plans a deadly revenge. In the end, however, it is not the Duke but Gilda who falls victim to the plot. The universally known tenor hit "La donna è mobile" becomes a cynical code for failure. (...) Act one At one of his lavish parties, the Duke tells the courtier Borsa of a beautiful stranger he has cast his eye upon. But first he dives into the festivities to seek companionship with Countess Ceprano, another object of his desire. In the meantime, Marullo tells the other courtiers about his discovery that Rigoletto has a secret love. To make his way free for the Countess, Rigoletto suggests that the Duke simply have Ceprano executed, a cynical suggestion that the Duke takes with humor, but Ceprano and the other courtiers demand punishment for Rigoletto.

[...] Since Herod promises to fulfil her every wish for the erotic "Dance of The Seven Veils", she demands Jochanaan’s head on a silver platter. In a frenzied delusion, she kisses his lifeless lips, fulfilling her sensual desire – until Herod gives the order to kill Salome.Richard Strauss had his first overwhelming success as an operatic composer with his adaptation of Oscar Wilde’s scandalous and shocking Décadence drama in 1905: it moves between a delicate psychogram and the depiction of intoxicating, unbridled wantonness. In exhilaratingly ecstatic musical visions, Strauss pours the charged emotions and deep psychological traumas of his eccentric female lead into a shimmering, occasionally also brusque score. In doing so, he captures not only Salome’s mental decline and seductive powers with the sweeping sounds of the orchestra, but also her emotional coldness and Jochanaan’s impassioned accusations in a thrilling and disturbing way. (...) The situation escalates. With Wilde present, a struggle of desire, resistance, attraction, the radical search for truth and ecstasy. Narraboth stabs himself to death. The scene is repeatedly interrupted by Jokanaan’s prophecies, to which Herodias reacts violently. A group of five Jews initiates a theological dispute over the concept of God and the possible appearance of the Messiah. [...]
