La Belle et la Bête Glass

Once upon a time there was a merchant whose youngest daughter was just called “the beautiful one” by everyone. When he had to travel, his other daughters asked him for expensive gifts, but the beauty only wished for a rose. During a storm, the father ends up in a monster's castle. When he picks a rose there, the beast demands his death unless one of his daughters would take the beast's power instead of her father. Out of love for her father, the beauty agrees. Through her grace she wins the love of the beast, which in this way frees her from its ugly, enchanted form.

Jeanne-Marie Leprance de Beaumont's 18th-century French fairy tale "La Belle et la Bête" was filmed in 1947 by Jean Cocteau, starring Jean Marais, and presented at the Cannes Film Festival. Philip Glass, one of the most important representatives of minimal music, created his opera by precisely synchronizing this film with musical means and premiered it in Sicily in 1994.

English

Es war einmal ein Kaufmann, dessen jüngste Tochter von allen nur „die Schöne“ genannt wurde. Als er auf Reisen gehen musste, baten ihn seine anderen Töchter um teure Geschenke, die Schöne aber wünschte sich nur eine Rose. Durch ein Unwetter gelangt der Vater in das Schloss eines Ungeheuers. Als er dort eine Rose pflückt, verlangt das Biest seinen Tod, es sei denn, eine seiner Töchter würde sich anstelle des Vaters in die Gewalt des Biests begeben. Aus Liebe zu ihrem Vater erklärt sich die Schöne dazu bereit. Durch ihre Anmut gewinnt sie die Liebe des Biests, das sie auf diese Weise von seiner hässlichen, verzauberten Gestalt erlösen kann.

Das französische Märchen „La Belle et la Bête“ von Jeanne-Marie Leprance de Beaumont aus dem 18. Jahrhundert wurde 1947 von Jean Cocteau mit Jean Marais in der Hauptrolle verfilmt und bei den Filmfestspielen von Cannes präsentiert. Philip Glass, einer der wichtigsten Vertreter der Minimal Music, schuf seine Oper, indem er diesen Film mit musikalischen Mitteln exakt synchronisierte und sie 1994 in Sizilien zur Uraufführung brachte.
