Les Huguenots Meyerbeer

A single night transformed the city of Paris into a house of the dead: on St. Bartholomew's Night in 1572, French Catholics murdered thousands of their fellow citizens who, as Huguenots, belonged to the new faith of the Reformation. 260 years later, Giacomo Meyerbeer brings the events to the stage in his opera »The Huguenots«. With the love story between the Huguenot Raoul and the Catholic Valentine, he shows how a religious conflict escalates and finally leads to a massacre in which even family ties no longer count. Meyerbeer's opera »The Huguenots«, which premiered in 1836, is a key work of 19th-century opera, but largely disappeared from the repertoire after the First World War. Director Peter Konwitschny shows in his production of »The Huguenots

Eine einzige Nacht verwandelt die Stadt Paris in ein Totenhaus: In der Bartholomäusnacht 1572 ermorden die französischen Katholiken tausende ihrer Mitbürger, die als Hugenotten dem neuen Glauben der Reformation angehören. 260 Jahre später bringt Giacomo Meyerbeer in seiner Oper »Die Hugenotten« die Ereignisse auf die Bühne. Mit der Liebesgeschichte zwischen dem Hugenotten Raoul und der Katholikin Valentine führt er vor, wie ein religiöser Konflikt eskaliert und schließlich zu einem Massaker führt, in dem selbst familiäre Bindungen nicht mehr zählen. Meyerbeers 1836 uraufgeführte Oper »Die Hugenotten« ist ein Schlüsselwerk der Oper des 19. Jahrhunderts, verschwand jedoch nach dem 1. Weltkrieg weitgehend von den Spielplänen. Regisseur Peter Konwitschny zeigt in seiner Inszenierung von »Die Hugenotten«, wie religiöse Konflikte eine Gesellschaft nach und nach zerstören und das Miteinander-Leben unmöglich machen.
