Die Fledermaus Strauss II,J

ORF Live - Clemens UNTERREINER als Falke - Dr. Fledermaus in der Silvester Fledermaus 2021 an der Wiener Staatsoper 
samt seiner ganz persönlichen echten „Wiener Schmähs“, die er extra für diesen Abend mit großem Erfolg eingebaut hat.

Clemens Unterreiner - Silvesterfledermaus 2021

Rarely has a work struck Vienna with such immediacy as Johann Strauss’ »Die Fledermaus«. After its premiere in 1874, the piece was frequently performed, in 1894 court opera honours were bestowed upon it, after which it has remained in the repertoire almost continuously. Ever since 1900, it is nearly always performed on New Year's Eve. With a happy lightheartedness, the most famous of all operettas takes a suggestive look at erotic and social disguise beneath the facade of the 19th-century bourgeoisie – dancing and political and social commentaries included. The always prominent »surprise guest« in the second act of the State Opera’s New Year’s Eve performance is also steeped in tradition: this year, it is soprano Asmik Grigorian, who will make her debut in September in the »Madama Butterfly« premiere.

Selten hat ein Werk mit solcher Unmittelbarkeit in Wien eingeschlagen wie Johann Strauß’ »Die Fledermaus«. Von der Uraufführung 1874 an brachte man das Stück in höchster Spieldichte, 1894 kam es zu Hofopern-Ehren, um seither nahezu durchgehend, und seit 1900 fast immer zu Silvester, im Repertoire zu bleiben. Die berühmteste aller Operetten nähert sich mit glücklicher und leichter Hand Spielarten der erotischen und sozialen Verstellung und bringt die bürgerlichen Fassaden zum Tanzen, politische und gesellschaftliche Kommentare inklusive.

Regisseur Otto Schenk, der am 31. Dezember 2011 die Produktion neu einstudierte, sieht in der Fledermaus zwei Motoren: die Sentimentalität, das Sich-Hingeben einer fast hypochondrisch übertriebenen Stimmung und die Blamage, die durch eine geradezu satanische Unterhaltungssucht aller Beteiligten hervorgerufen wird.
