Viele große und großartige Tragödien hatte Verdi der Welt schon geschenkt, bevor er sein Lebenswerk mit einer Komödie krönte. Und mit was für einer! Vollmundige Lebenslust trifft auf sensible Sinnsuche. Librettist Arrigo Boito entlockte dem 80-jährigen Verdi eine geistessprühende, funkelnde Partitur, die nicht nur im Werk Verdis ihresgleichen sucht.

Mehrere Dramen Shakespeares wurden für diese Oper, nebst einiger spritziger Anleihen bei Goldoni, zu einem Lustspielmosaik zusammengefügt – das wesentlich tiefgründiger daherkommt, als die bis dahin üblichen Falstaff-Bearbeitungen. Nicht krachledern und vulgär, sondern mit viel Raffinesse und philosophischem Witz wird die bekannte Geschichte erzählt: Der Lebemann Sir John Falstaff ist knapp bei Kasse. Um an Geld zu kommen, schickt er zwei gleichlautende Liebesbriefe an zwei reiche Damen, in der Hoffnung auf deren Vermögen. Blöd nur, dass die beiden eng befreundet sind. Sie tauschen die Briefe und beschließen ­Falstaff eine Lektion zu erteilen, die dieser nicht so schnell vergessen wird.

Lebenslust trifft auf Melancholie, Bodenständigkeit auf Draufgängertum und maßloser Genuss auf Nachdenklichkeit. Was für ein Schlusspunkt in Verdis beispielloser Karriere als Opernkomponist, mit der er quasi nebenbei die Gattung der italienischen Opernkomödie revolutionierte und für das 20. Jahrhundert öffnete.

Verdi had already given the world many great and great tragedies before he crowned his life's work with a comedy. And with what a! Full-bodied lust for life meets a sensitive search for meaning. Librettist Arrigo Boito elicited an intellectually sparkling, sparkling score from the 80-year-old Verdi, which is not only unparalleled in Verdi's work.

Several of Shakespeare's dramas were combined for this opera, along with a few lively borrowings from Goldoni, into a comedy mosaic - which is much more profound than the Falstaff adaptations that had been customary up to that point. The well-known story is not told in a vulgar and vulgar way, but with a great deal of sophistication and philosophical humour: the bon vivant Sir John Falstaff is short on cash. In order to get money, he sends two identical love letters to two rich women, hoping for their wealth. Too bad the two are close friends. They exchange letters and decide to teach Falstaff a lesson he won't soon forget.

Joie de vivre meets melancholy, down-to-earthness meets daredevilry and indulgence meets thoughtfulness. What a final point in Verdi's unprecedented career as an opera composer, with which he revolutionized the genre of Italian operatic comedy and opened it up to the 20th century.

In Italian with German surtitles.

The great Italian opera composer Verdi in a different way: not tragic, but inspired by (old) wise humor. This is how England goes Mediterranean!
