Leonardo Sini

In his early opera »Benvenuto Cellini«, which premiered in Paris in 1838, Hector Berlioz (1803–1869) created a phenomenal work of art that made one of the most important artists of the 16th century the protagonist: Benvenuto Cellini. Although the opera outlines only three days - the time between Shrove Monday and Ash Wednesday 1532 in Rome - from the dazzling life of the Florentine sculptor, they are stormy enough: after turbulent hours in the hustle and bustle of the carnival, in which Cellini kills an opponent, he is at the In the end, the happy winner.

Hector Berlioz was known for the phenomenal and highly differentiated handling of the instruments in his orchestra and found many admirers, including Richard Wagner. The diverse score includes both large-scale tableaus with their stirring choral scenes and chamber theatrical situations that are uniquely orchestrated. In this way he creates a carnivalesque atmosphere that is second to none.
