L'Orfeo Monteverdi

L'ORFEO | von Claudio Monteverdi

"Abandon all hope, you who enter." Dante. The Divine Comedy

Overcoming death for the sake of love is the daring plan with which the young Orpheus descends into the underworld. He wants to snatch his deceased bride Eurydice from the clutches of the mighty god Pluto. Nothing seems to be able to stop the talented singer. Shortly before the goal, however, he has to realize that it takes more than courage, that he has to overcome more than the guardians of the gates of hell to be united with his beloved. Will he pass the ultimate test?

Monteverdi's Favola in Musica, often almost mystically transfigured as the first opera ever, takes the audience on an impressive journey into the underworld, which is about nothing more and nothing less than life and death.

" L'Orfeo " is made possible by the Kulturfonds Frankfurt RheinMain

English

„Lasst alle Hoffnung fahren, ihr, die ihr eintretet.“ Dante. Die Göttliche Komödie

Den Tod überwinden um der Liebe willen, so der tollkühne Plan, mit dem der junge Orpheus hinabsteigt in die Unterwelt. Seine verstorbene Braut Eurydike will er den Fängen des mächtigen Gottes Pluto entreißen. Nichts scheint den talentierten Sänger aufhalten zu konnen. Kurz vor dem Ziel jedoch muss er feststellen, dass es mehr braucht als Mut, dass er mehr überwinden muss als die Wächter der Höllenpforten, um mit der Geliebten vereint zu sein. Wird er die ultimative Prüfung bestehen?

Monteverdis Favola in Musica, oftmals beinahe mystisch verklärt als erste Oper überhaupt, nimmt das Publikum mit auf eine eindrucksvolle Reise in die Unterwelt, bei der es um nicht mehr und nicht weniger geht als Leben und Tod.

"L'Orfeo" wird ermöglicht durch den Kulturfonds Frankfurt RheinMain.
