Rigoletto Verdi

Public

Approvato

One of Verdi's most popular works, Rigoletto  presents the drama of the jester Triboulet, which takes place against the background of the immorality and debauchery of King François I and as a reflection of his own ironic attitude towards the victims of his master.

In order to obtain permission to perform his work, Verdi will first change the original title, La maledizione (The Curse) -  now Rigoletto - , will move the action from the French court to a small Italian duchy - Mantua, while transferring the identity of the negative character - the seductive king - to a duke. The dramatic journey presents the Count of Monterone, whose wife had cheated on him, falling prey to the charms of the Duke of Mantua, becoming the subject of great amusement in the court, which is why he utters a curse on Rigoletto. Although the buffoon was apparently safe, enjoying the goodwill and support of his master, allowing himself a mocking attitude toward the deceived, he would soon come to plan the assassination of the duke to avenge his daughter's dishonesty. The fact that Gilda is aware of the questionable character of the one she loves, does not prevent her from remaining devoted to him, sacrificing herself, in the end, to save her life. The story ends abruptly when Rigoletto discovers with astonishment that the inert body for which he had paid the Sparafucile assassin does not belong to his rival, but to his beloved Gilda. The curse has come true!

The way the quality of the subject, the drama of the action, the complexity of the characters are transposed by Verdi in the discourse of Rigoletto 's work demonstrates his impressive ability to use his compositional resources and strongly individualized language in making a charming music. The premiere of the play took place on March 11, 1851 on the stage of the La Fenice Theater in Venice, where it was a resounding success. From then until today, the popularity of Rigoletto 's opera has been growing, confirming its status as a Verdi masterpiece and making its place everywhere in the repertoires of the great opera houses around the world.
