Die Gänsemagd

Sun, Sep 28, 2025, 11:00
Claudia Chan (Musical Director), Ida Aldrian (Prinzessin), Katja Pieweck (Ihre Mutter), Katja Pieweck (Die Königin), Hellen Kwon (Kammerjungfrau), Tigran Martirossian (König), Peter Galliard (Schlächter), Aebh Kelly (Der Gänsehüter), Aebh Kelly (Kürdchen), Carlo Silvester Duer (Falada), Carlo Silvester Duer (Das Pferd), Carlo Silvester Duer (Prinz), Musiker:innen des Philharmonischen Staatsorchesters Hamburg (Orchestra)
Iris ter Schiphorst's opera for children was premiered in Vienna in 2010. Together with her librettist Helga Utz, the Hamburg-born composer created a touching and captivatingly imaginative work of music theater from the Grimm fairy tale. A princess, accompanied by her maid, sets off from the protection of her parental home to meet her bridegroom. Despite a difficult journey and numerous obstacles, everything turns out well in the end and she is able to marry her prince. Tobias Kratzer is staging Die Gänsemagd as part of the opening of the opera stabile's artistic direction and season one day after Das Paradies und die Peri, the opening production on the main stage. Musical theater for the youngest generations is not a niche product for him, but a top priority. Here, young audiences experience it at close quarters: As a flock of geese, the children become part of the action, immersing themselves in the story together with the musicians and ensemble singers - opera as a lively, accessible art form full of enchanting melodies that shows how valuable resilience, self-confidence and trust in others are on the journey through life. Musical direction: Claudia Chan Production: Tobias Kratzer Co-director: Matthias Piro Stage and costumes: Rainer Sellmaier Dramaturgy: Michelle Stoop Opera for children (2009) Libretto: Helga Utz based on the fairy tale of the same name by the Brothers Grimm

La Fanciulla del West (The Girl of the West)

Fri, Mar 21, 2025, 19:30
Paolo Carignani (Musical Director), Christian Günther (Chorleitung), Anna Pirozzi (Minnie), Claudio Sgura (Jack Rance), Gregory Kunde (Dick Johnson), Andrew Dickinson (Nick), Han Kim (Ashby), Tigran Martirossian (Sonora), Paul Kaufmann (Trin), Nicholas Mogg (Sid), Charles Rice (Bello), Mziwamadoda Sipho Nodlayiya (Harry), Ziad Nehme (Joe), William Desbiens (Happy), Grzegorz Pelutis (Larkens), Mateusz Ługowski (Billy Jackrabbit), Aebh Kelly (Wowkle), David Minseok Kang (Jake Wallace), Keith Klein (Josè Castro), Philharmonisches Staatsorchester Hamburg (Orchestra), Chor der Hamburgischen Staatsoper (Chorus)
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

Falstaff

Thu, Apr 3, 2025, 19:30
Finnegan Downie Dear (Musical Director), Christian Günther (Chorleitung), Christopher Purves (Falstaff), Simon Keenlyside (Ford), Seungwoo Simon Yang (Fenton), Jürgen Sacher (Dr. Cajus), Daniel Kluge (Bardolfo), Tigran Martirossian (Pistola), Danielle de Niese (Alice Ford), Olivia Warburton (Nannetta), Anna Kissjudit (Mrs. Quickly), Kady Evanyshyn (Meg Page), Philharmonisches Staatsorchester Hamburg (Orchestra), Chor der Hamburgischen Staatsoper (Chorus)
Sir John Falstaff is an anarchist who obeys only the reign of his own enjoyment, an egoist who feeds only his power-hunger and his own flesh, and who would prefer to raze the small-minded morals of his contemporaries like the walls of a fortress – by seducing two women at the same time. Needless to say, his plan is thwarted, but those trying to expose him also fail to emerge unruffled from the confusion they unleash around him – which only the audience can keep track of, barely. “Tutto nel mondo è burla,” but these jokes are only funny because falling into the abyss actually does pose quite a serious risk. Arrigo Boito, the librettist of “Otello”, distilled a sophisticated, ingenious libretto from Shakespeare’s original, driving Verdi to highly complex compositional heights. Director: Calixto Bieito Set Designer: Susanne Gschwender Costume Designer: Anja Rabes Dramaturgy: Bettina Auer Lighting Designer: Michael Bauer Premiere: January 19th 2020

Le Nozze di Figaro

Fri, Jun 27, 2025, 19:00
Nicholas Carter (Musical Director), Kartal Karagedik (Il Conte d'Almaviva), Olga Peretyatko (La Contessa d'Almaviva), Katharina Konradi (Susanna), Chao Deng (Figaro), Julia Lezhneva (Cherubino), Claire Gascoin (Marcellina), Peter Galliard (Don Basilio), Jürgen Sacher (Don Curzio), Tigran Martirossian (Don Bartolo), Keith Klein (Antonio), Marie Maidowski (Barbarina), Philharmonisches Staatsorchester Hamburg (Orchestra), Chor der Hamburgischen Staatsoper (Chorus)
During times of historical upheaval, the victors are filled with euphoric jubilation while fear spreads on the side of the losers. When cheerfulness grips the figures in Mozart’s piece, it is the swan song, full of schadenfreude, of dying structures, ancient privileges and traditional manners – including those between man and woman. Mozart (and Beaumarchais) hold the balance on the threshold between eras – as artists en route to self-marketing, as portraitists of their times, by precisely rendering a society whose balance is shifting, making Almaviva a ridiculous figure. His class is losing political power, and he compensates for this loss by becoming a slave to his sexual desire. The wind is blowing from the past, giving wing to Walter Benjamin’s angel of history. It is a storm for the winners, and for the losers a mere melancholy breeze. The angel sees nothing but ruins.
