Guerras do alecrim e manjerona Teixeira

The Wars of Rosemary and Marjoram, by António José da Silva (1705-1739) and António Teixeira (1707-1774), is a Joco-Séria Opera, which was performed for the first time at the Bairro Alto Theater in Lisbon, at the carnival of 1737.

It is a masterpiece of Portuguese theater and music and of crucial importance in our culture. Músicos do Tejo is now presenting a new version of the concert, but which will focus on text and theatrical play.

In this « opera in Portuguese taste » (as this genre of theater spoken in Portuguese was called at the time and with various musical numbers sung with orchestral accompaniment), we find a perfect balance between the comicity of the text, characters and situations; literary and musical beauty; as well as the pace of development and structuring of the work. Its tone is always varying between multiple layers: grotesque, sublime, dramatic, pastoral, satirical, among others that blend in a style that, at times, is rich in something that, intuitively, we call "castiço", even if that word with so much meaning for the Portuguese, is, deep down, so mysterious.

We don't want to reveal the story too much, but we can say that the plot revolves around young people who want to unite despite the opposition of a tutor accustomed to the most conservative difficulties. The context is that of the extended theatrical family that we always find in 18th-century theatre, in which the house's owners are joined by the always ingenious and quick servants to propose intriguing solutions and the respective outcome. – Marcos Magalhães and Marta Araújo

he Alecrim and Marjoram Wars, by António José da Silva (1705-1739) and António Teixeira (1707-1774), is a Joco-Séria Opera, which was performed for the first time at the Teatro do Bairro Alto in Lisbon, in carnival of 1737.

It is a masterpiece of Portuguese theater and music and of central importance in our culture. The Músicos do Tejo now present a new concert version, but which will privilege the text and the theatrical game.

In this « opera in the Portuguese taste » (as this genre of theater was called at the time, spoken in Portuguese and with several musical numbers sung with orchestral accompaniment), we find a perfect balance between the comic of the text, characters and situations; literary and musical beauty; as well as the pace of development and structuring of the work. Its tone always varies between multiple strata: grotesque, sublime, dramatic, pastoral, satirical, among others that mix in a style that, at times, is rich in something that, intuitively, we call "castiço", even if this word with so much meaning for the Portuguese, is, deep down, so mysterious.

We don't want to reveal the story too much, but we can say that the plot revolves around young people who want to unite despite the opposition of a tutor accustomed to the most conservative difficulties. The context is that of the extended theatrical family that we always find in the 18th century theater, in which the owners of the house are joined by the servants who are always ingenious and ready to propose intrigue solutions and the respective denouement. – Marcos Magalhães and Marta Araújo
