Ariadne auf Naxos

Sun, Jan 26, 2025, 18:00
Dmitri Tcherniakov (Inszenierung), Dmitri Tcherniakov (Bühne), Kent Nagano (Musical Director), Elena Zaytseva (Costume), Gleb Filshtinsky (Licht), Tatiana Werestchagina (Dramaturgie), Michael Sangkuhl (Dramaturgie), Dr. Angela Beuerle (Dramaturgie), Thorsten Cölle (Regieassistenz), Danila Travin (Assistenz Bühnenbild), Wolfram Koch (Haushofmeister), Martin Gantner (Musiklehrer), Ella Taylor (Komponist), Jamez McCorkle (Tenor), Jamez McCorkle (Bacchus), Peter Tantsits (Tanzmeister), Grzegorz Pelutis (Perückenmacher), Hubert Kowalczyk (Ein Lakai), Nadezhda Pavlova (Zerbinetta), Anja Kampe (Primadonna), Anja Kampe (Ariadne), Björn Bürger (Harlekin), Florian Panzieri (Scaramuccio), Stephan Bootz (Truffaldin), Daniel Kluge (Brighella), Olivia Warburton (Najade), Aebh Kelly (Dryade), Marie Maidowski (Echo), Philharmonisches Staatsorchester Hamburg (Orchestra)
"It is a simple and tremendous problem of life: that of fidelity", is how Hugo von Hofmannsthal described the core of their third opera together, Ariadne auf Naxos, in a letter to Richard Strauss. To live does not mean to persevere and hold on to what has been lost. If you want to live, you have to let go, forget, get over yourself - constantly transform yourself. This is what a young opera composer experiences in this work when he is confronted with the stubborn wishes of his patron; just like the protagonist of his opera, Ariadne, who, abandoned by her lover, Theseus, expects only death. But things turn out differently... Strauss and Hofmannsthal let the opposites collide: Tragedy and comedy, light music and grand opera, playfulness and seriousness. Thus, in the mirroring of art and life, between gaze and gaze, the unfathomable mystery of transformation takes place.

Rigoletto

Sat, Mar 15, 2025, 19:30
Henrik Nánási (Musical Director), Piero Pretti (Il Duca di Mantova), Amartuvshin Enkhbat (Rigoletto), Katharina Konradi (Gilda), Grzegorz Pelutis (Il Conte Monterone), Keith Klein (Il Conte di Ceprano), Aebh Kelly (La Contessa di Ceprano), David Minseok Kang (Marullo), Aaron Godfrey-Mayes (Borsa), Hubert Kowalczyk (Sparafucile), Jana Kurucová (Maddalena), Katja Pieweck (Giovanna), Aebh Kelly (Il Paggio della Duchessa), William Desbiens (Un Usciere di Corte), Philharmonisches Staatsorchester Hamburg (Orchestra), Chor der Hamburgischen Staatsoper (Chorus)
Never one to miss an opportunity to make fun of others, the hunchback jester Rigoletto is employed by the Duke of Mantua. His only joy in life is his daughter Gilda. When Rigoletto must witness how she falls for the calculated vows of love of the unscrupulous Duke, he is out for revenge: he hires the contract killer Sparafucile to murder the seducer. Gilda, however, sacrifices herself for her lover. Rigoletto realises that he has driven his daughter to death and destroyed his own life. Ever since the figure of Rigoletto walked onstage for the first time in Venice in 1851, his fate has moved audiences at opera houses everywhere. Giuseppe Verdi achieved world fame with the opera and its ubiquitous melodies – although it is a piece without heroes: thus Rigoletto, that cynical and lovesick father, joined the broad ranks of Verdi figures who are social outcasts and previously never had a voice in the history of opera.

La Fanciulla del West (The Girl of the West)

Fri, Mar 21, 2025, 19:30

California in 1850: hundreds of thousands have fallen for the gold rush – and some of them also for the barkeeper Minnie, at whose saloon various fortune seekers meet every evening. Among them is Sheriff Jack Rance. Minnie, however, falls in love with the stranger Dick Johnson. It soon turns out that Johnson is a wanted robber: the sheriff wants to see him hang and have Minnie to himself. A round of poker is to decide about Dick’s life: is there yet another trump up Minnie’s sleeve? Puccini certainly held a trump with his Fanciulla, and even considered the piece his best: after world hits such as La Bohème and Madama Butterfly he had reinvented himself with this “spaghetti western”. In La Fanciulla del West, he combined ragtime rhythms, allusions to gospel singing and the music of the native Americans with Italian melodiousness, resulting in a lushly orchestrated broadband sound. This did not fail to affect the audience at the first performance at New York’s Metropolitan Opera in 1910. And yet, compared to Puccini’s major hits, the piece languished in the shadows for a long time – until the musical gold diggers set out to reclaim it… Director: Vincent Boussard Set Designer: Vincent Lemaire Costume Designer: Christian Lacroix Lighting Designer: Guido Levi Premiere: 01.02.2015
