Yannick Debus sings “Jakob Lenz” by Wolfgang Rihm - Zurich Opera House

The artistic impulses of three young talents come together in brilliant fashion in the chamber opera Jakob Lenz: At the center is the eponymous Jakob Lenz himself, a highly sensitive outsider of the Sturm und Drang period. In January 1778, he wandered through Alsace in a battered state and finds refuge with Pastor Oberlin. Based on Oberlin’s historical notes, Georg Büchner – an author who died young – wrote his novella Lenz. In 1978, this text inspired the composer Wolfgang Rihm, then 25 years old, to write what would become not only one of his early successes, but one of the most successful chamber operas of the 20th century. Rihm traced Lenz’s inner state, above all setting the voices that «only Lenz hears» to music. With its highly expressive, sharp-edged but also lyrically sensitive tone, Rihm’s score leads directly into the soul of his protagonist. Swiss stage director Mélanie Huber took on this chamber opera in celebration of Rihm’s 70th birthday. Her visually powerful, strident and nuanced production returns to the stage at Winterthur. Bowing once again in the title role is baritone Yannick Debus, whose first appearance in the role took Switzerland by storm.

English

In der Kammeroper Jakob Lenz finden die künstlerischen Impulse von drei jungen Talenten auf kongeniale Weise zueinander: Im Zentrum steht Jakob Lenz selbst, ein hochsensibler Aussenseiter der Sturm-und-Drang-Zeit, der im Januar 1778 in angeschlagenem Zustand durchs Elsass wandert und bei Pfarrer Oberlin Zuflucht findet. Basierend auf historischen Aufzeichnungen Oberlins hat der jung verstorbene Georg Büchner seine Novelle Lenz geschrieben. Dieser Text inspirierte wiederum den 25-jährigen Komponisten Wolfgang Rihm 1978 zu einem frühen Erfolgswerk, das inzwischen zu den meistgespielten Kammeropern des 20. Jahrhunderts gehört. Rihm hat dem inneren Zustand von Lenz nachgespürt und vor allem die Stimmen vertont, «die nur Lenz hört». Mit ihrem hoch- expressiven, scharfkantigen, aber auch lyrisch-empfindsamen Ton führt Rihms Musik direkt in die Seele seines Protagonisten. Die Schweizer Regisseurin Mélanie Huber hat die Kammeroper anlässlich von Rihms 70. Geburtstag auf die Bühne gebracht. Ihre bildstarke, stringente und differenzierte Inszenierung ist nun noch einmal in Winterthur zu sehen. In der Hauptrolle ist wiederum der Bariton Yannick Debus zu erleben, der mit seiner Interpretation dieser Partie überregional für Aufsehen gesorgt hat.
