Il trovatore Verdi

IL TROVATOREDramma lirico in vier Teilen von Giuseppe Verdi (1813-1901)www.opernhaus.ch/trovatoreMusikalische Leitung: Gianandrea NosedaInszenierung: Adele T...

In his first season as general music director at the Zurich Opera House, Gianandrea Noseda left his fingerprint in Italian and German. In addition to his inaugural premiere of Verdi's “Il trovatore” at the end of October, he will also take on the musical direction of Verdi's “Falstaff”. In spring 2022, a new “Ring des Nibelungen” will begin with “Das Rheingold”: together with artistic director Andreas Homoki, Noseda will venture into his first interpretation of the epic Wagner cycle. He conducts even more Wagner at the end of the season with the classic “Tristan und Isolde”. The Italian is an artist of international standing not only as an opera but also as a concert conductor. One week after the premiere of “Il trovatore”, he also conducts the Philharmonia in concerts in Zurich, Basel and Bern. The worldwide celebrated exceptional pianist Daniil Trifonov can be heard as a soloist. The program includes Brahms ’« First Piano Concerto », which is characterized by symphonic breadth and eruptive expressiveness, and Dvořák's« Eighth Symphony », which has a cheerful mood and is permeated by the most beautiful Bohemian folklore. One can look forward to the interpretation of Gianandrea Noseda, who is known for his enthusiastic and passionate way of conducting.

Gianandrea Noseda on his 1st season as general music director at the Zurich Opera House

Il trovatore
Casting this opera, as Enrico Caruso once put it, is very easy: You only need the four best singers in the world. Our soloist quartet has undoubtedly earned this title: the Latvian soprano Marina Rebeka makes her debut as Leonora, her lover Manrico is Piotr Beczała. His opponent Count Luna is Quinn Kelsey, whom the Zurich audience will remember as Rigoletto, and the Polish mezzo-soprano Agnieszka Rehlis will return to Zurich as Azucena. Gianandrea Noseda makes his debut as general music director; For the first time in Zurich, the young British director Adele Thomas, whose sensual and theatrical imagery predestines her for this work.

Verdi's Trovatore has to endure a major contradiction - namely that of being one of the most criticized and at the same time one of the most popular operas in the entire repertoire. The dark plot, which could hardly be understood without knowledge of the previous history, gave cause for criticism. The reason for the popularity of the piece since the triumphant premiere is Verdi's unrestrained melodic inventiveness, the musical dramaturgy based on sharp contrasts and the brilliance of the vocal parts. Like the other two operas in the trilogia popolare that established Verdi's world fame - La traviata and Rigoletto - Il trovatore also representsa social outsider figure at the center of the action: Azucena, whose insatiable thirst for revenge runs through the rapidly developing plot like a red thread. She once saw her mother burned at the stake. Torn by the pain of this injustice, she kidnapped the son of the family who was responsible for the burning of the alleged witch to see him die in the fire as well. What only Azucena knows, however, is that the child she threw into the fire in blind despair was her son; Manrico, who grew up with her and considers himself her son, is in truth the brother of the hated Count Luna. Now Luna and Manrico, the "troubadour", are not only fighting against each other in the civil war on different sides, but they are also rivals,
