DIE TOTE STADTOper in drei Bildern von Erich Wolfgang Korngold nach Georges Rodenbachs „Bruges-la-Morte“ Libretto von Paul SchottSYMPHONISCHE SERENADE op. 39...

Die tote Stadt

1920 rissen sich große Opernhäuser um die Uraufführungsrechte der „Toten Stadt“ des gerade 23-jährigen Erich Wolfgang Korngold. Trotz jugendlichen Alters genoss er den Status eines Genies, das sogar Mozart überträfe. Köln und Hamburg gewannen den Streit und brachten Korngolds erstes abendfüllendes Werk gleichzeitig mit sensationellem Erfolg auf die Bühne, das unmittelbar darauf seinen Siegeszug um die Welt antrat. Wie Richard Strauss und Gustav Mahler gelang es Korngold, die ambivalente Gefühlswelt einer Endzeit musikalisch kongenial einzufangen. Auch das Sujet konnte kaum besser gewählt sein: Im geheimnisumwobenen Brügge, der toten Stadt, hat sich Paul nach dem Tod seiner Frau Marie vollkommen der Vergangenheit hingegeben. In seiner „Kirche des Gewesenen“ lebt er einzig in der Erinnerung. Bei einem seiner einsamen Spaziergänge begegnet ihm die Tänzerin Marietta, in die er von nun an Marie projiziert. Was sich daraus entspinnt, ist ein Psychothriller im Zwischenreich von Traum und Realität, erotischer Expressivität und seelischer Zerstörtheit. Pauls besessene Liebe treibt das Geschehen unweigerlich in eine tödliche Katastrophe – oder war alles nur ein Traum?

Deutsch

In 1920, major opera houses scrambled for the premiere rights to the “Dead City” by Erich Wolfgang Korngold, who was just 23 years old. Despite his young age, he enjoyed the status of a genius that even surpassed Mozart. Cologne and Hamburg won the dispute and brought Korngold's first full-length work to the stage at the same time with sensational success, which began its triumphant march around the world immediately afterwards. Like Richard Strauss and Gustav Mahler, Korngold succeeded in musically congenially capturing the ambivalent emotional world of an end time. The subject could hardly have been chosen better either: in the mysterious Bruges, the dead city, Paul gave himself up completely to the past after the death of his wife Marie. In his "Church of the Past" he lives only in memory. During one of his lonely walks he meets the dancer Marietta, into whom he projects Marie from now on. The result is a psychological thriller somewhere between dream and reality, erotic expressiveness and emotional destruction. Paul's obsessive love inevitably leads to a deadly catastrophe - or was it all just a dream?
