"Everything in this world is a joke," says Falstaff, and these words of wisdom are duly appreciated by Ambrogio Maestri, whose portrayal of Falstaff is one of the finest. The Italian baritone not only brings a powerful, versatile voice to the role expression, but also draws a character of funny and yet lovable quality.His acting skills, his stage presence and his exhilarating lightness merge into an incomparable portrayal of Falstaff.
The Zurich Opera Orchestra is headed by its chief conductor Daniele Gatti, who is at home in all the major concert and opera houses such as La Scala, Covent Garden, the Vienna State Opera and the Bayreuth Festival... Verdi's "Commedia lirica" ​​will be performed under his baton. , which is based on Shakespeare's "The Merry Wives of Windsor", for a boisterous party. The outstanding singers such as Barbara Frittoli and Yvonne Naef, but also the tenor Javier Camarena and the soprano Eva Liebau, who embody the young lovers Fenton and Nannetta, also contribute to this. The orchestra and soloists exude happiness and grace, spreading warm, gentle Italianità.
Tempo and timing play a major role in Sven-Eric Bechtolf's lively production, which skillfully creates intimate oases of calm between all the hustle and bustle on stage. This gives the singers space to unfold their lyrical moments. With the help of Marianne Glittenberg's epoch-spanning costumes, Gatti's musical concept and the outstanding acting qualities of the singers, Bechtolf makes Verdi's last opera "musically and dramaturgically a celebration of life and the love of life" (Neue Zürcher Zeitung).
