La liberazione: La liberazione di Ruggiero dall'isola d'Alcina

La liberazione di Ruggiero dall'isola d'Alcina

Die ganze künstlerische Welt schwärmte von ihrer schillernden Persönlichkeit und ihrem außergewöhnlichen Talent: Francesca Caccini war die erste Frau, die sich als Berufskomponistin durchsetzte und der Opernwelt bedeutende Werke hinterließ. Daneben trat sie mit Mutter und Schwester als „Donne di Caccini“ auch als Sängerin auf – in einer der ersten „Girlgroups“ der Musikgeschichte. Klar, dass auch ihre erste Oper La liberazione di Ruggiero dall’isola d’Alcina (Die Befreiung Ruggieros von Alcinas Insel) aus dem Jahr 1625 starke Frauen in den Mittelpunkt stellt. Den Ritter Ruggiero hat es auf die Insel der Zauberin Alcina verschlagen, wo er sich nur noch den angenehmen Dingen des Lebens widmet. Die kriegslustige Fee Melissa macht es sich zur Aufgabe, Ruggiero zurück aufs Schlachtfeld zu ordern – doch ist dies wirklich die versprochene „Befreiung“? Zwischen Renaissance und Frühbarock stehend, entspinnt Caccini ein musikalisches Kaleidoskop zwischen harmonisch kühnen Rezitativen und Madrigalen, das von dem Alte-Musik-Experten Clemens Flick in einer eigenen Fassung zum Leben erweckt wird.

Deutsch

The entire world of art and artists was captivated by her charismatic character and her extraordinary talent: Francesca Caccini was the first woman who succeeded in establishing herself as a professional composer and leaving behind significant operatic works. At the same time she appeared on stage as a singer with her mother and sister as “Donne di Caccini” – one of the first-ever “girl groups” in the history of music. So it is hardly surprising that her first opera, La liberazione di Ruggiero dall’isola d’Alcina (The liberation of Ruggiero from Alcina’s island) written in 1625, puts the spotlight on tough women who can look after themselves. The knight Ruggiero has landed on the island ruled by the sorceress Alcina where he intends to devote himself solely to pleasure. However, the warmongering fairy Melissa takes it upon herself to order Ruggiero back to the battlefield – but is this really the promised “liberation”? At the crossover from Renaissance to early Baroque, Caccini develops a musical kaleidoscope between harmonically audacious recitatives and madrigals which is now brought to life by early music expert Clemens Flick in his own interpretation.
