About the work A motley group of travellers on their way to Reims for the coronation of Charles X is billeted in the Hotel zur Goldenen Lilie. But when it transpires that no fresh horses are available for the stage coach, they realise they’re stranded. In IL VIAGGIO A REIMS Gioacchino Rossini and his librettist Luigi Balochi present a chamber-piece setting in which the story’s 14-strong ensemble of equally-ranked main characters introduce themselves with a raft of original and perfectly executed arias in a situation of uncertainty and time-biding. The reason for travelling in the opera is the same as Rossini’s motive for writing it: Rossini, whose international reputation had preceded his move to Paris, was commissioned to write an opera as part of the festivities celebrating the coronation of Charles X in 1825, the climax of which would be the premiere of his work. As IL VIAGGIO A REIMS was inextricably linked to the coronation, Rossini considered that the work had a certain shelf life. He referred to the opera as a cantata and did not hesitate to use stretches of its music in one of his French operas, LE COMTE ORY. As a result the work slipped from the programmes and did not surface again until the 1980s, when Claudio Abbado staged it in Pesaro. And we can be thankful, because the opera – Rossini’s last in Italian – is a gem, despite the off-the-cuff circumstances of its composition, with the brilliance of the score and the over-the-top absurdity of the humour. This is Rossini at the pinnacle of Italian opera buffa. Some background trivia on the characters in IL VIAGGIO A REIMS: some of them had featured in the much-read novel by Madame de Stäel, “Corinne ou l’Italie”. Yet they also represent a cross-section of 19th-century Europe converging on Reims to pay their respects to the new French king – and each a deliberate stereotype rather than a fully rounded character. About the production Director Jan Bosse goes to town with the rather absurd premise of Europeans ...
