L'Heure espagnole / L'Enfant et les sortilèges We are showing the double evening with two short operas by Maurice Ravel, which had its premiere last year in Winterthur, in a new, attractive line-up in Zurich: among others, with the Irish mezzo-soprano Paula Murrihy as Conception, the Canadian tenor Frédéric Antoun as Gonzalve and our Ensemble member Deniz Uzun as enfant. Maurice Ravel's penchant for music boxes, jukeboxes and unusual clocks is well known - and it was also reflected in his first one-act opera, the Comédie musicale L'Heure espagnole . Ravel's musical wealth of ideas is stunning, for example when he makes audible a whole mechanical arsenal from a watchmaker's shop in the overture. But this shop becomes a completely different playground: Here, after her husband is out, the extravagant conception receives one lover after the other. The salacious ambiguity of score and plot appalled the music critics of the time, who spoke contemptuously of "musical pornography". The opera quickly disappeared from the repertoire, but today it is undoubtedly one of the most attractive short operas. Ravel's second opera, L'Enfant et les sortilèges based on a libretto by the poet Colette, was a success from the start. Here, too, Ravel writes a colorful and extremely original score. The story is about a child who is punished for not doing his homework. Out of anger, it begins to destroy things that later nightmarishly turn against the child. Gradually, however, they learn what empathy means and begin to take responsibility for their actions.
