José Luis Téllez analiza la partitura de Nabucco, de Giuseppe Verdi, en nuestra ya tradicionales 'Las charlas de Téllez'.

Nabucco | Las charlas de Téllez | T.21/22

With the enormous success of Rossini’s Mosè in Egitto, the imposing stories of the Old Testament that had been a literary source for innumerable Baroque oratorios, found a new and modest position in Romantic opera which would expand over the course of the century with significant contributions by Donizetti, Halévy, Gounod, Serov, Goldmark or Saint-Saëns, among others. Few, however, made more of this  than  did Verdi and his Nabucco,  the first great success after a dubious start, and one which distinguished him as the symbol of the Risorgimento with the famous Hebrew Slaves chorus «Va, pensiero». Compelling as an uncut diamond, Nabucco also had three top-notch protagonists – Nabucco, Abigaille and Zaccaria–forerunners of some of the grand Verdian roles which were still to come.  This Nabucco comes in the production of Andreas Homoki with the sumptuous and period piece costumes of Susana Mendoza and the minimalist stage design of Wolfgang Gussmann. The action takes place in Italy during the time of Verdi and places the focus, as of the overture, on the family relationships which constitute the real nucleus of this passionate drama.

English

A partir del enorme éxito del Mosè in Egitto rossiniano, las solemnes tramas del Antiguo Testamento que habían sido materia literaria de innumerables oratorios barrocos encontraron un nuevo y discreto acomodo en la ópera romántica que iría ensanchándose a lo largo del siglo con significativas contribuciones de Donizetti, Halévy, Gounod, Serov, Goldmark o Saint-Saëns, entre otros. Pocos, sin embargo, sacaron un partido semejante al obtenido por Verdi con su Nabucco, su primer gran éxito tras unos dubitativos inicios y el que le encumbró como símbolo del Risorgimento a través del célebre coro de esclavos hebreos «Va, pensiero». Contundente como un diamante en bruto, Nabucco cuenta además con tres protagonistas de primer orden –el titular, Abigaille y Zaccaria– que anuncian algunos de los grandes roles verdianos que estarían aún por venir. 

Nabucco se presentará en la producción de Andreas Homoki que, con un suntuoso vestuario de época de Susana Mendoza y una escena minimalista de Wolfgang Gussmann, traslada la acción a la Italia de los tiempos de Verdi y sitúa el foco, ya desde la obertura, en las relaciones familiares que constituyen el verdadero núcleo de este pasional drama.
