Approved

First performance of the opera Nikola Šubić Zrinjski in 1876 in Ivan pl. Zajc, the founder and organizer of the Zagreb Opera Theatre, was a multifaceted cultural event, among other things, because it marked the birth of another artistic branch within the Croatian National Theater in Zagreb - Ballet. Thematizing the last Siget days of the Croatian hero Nikola Šubić Zrinski and his heroic death, the piece experienced an unprecedented success at its premiere, retaining its place of honor on the Croatian opera scene to this day. The greatest excitement was caused by the shocking oath of the heroes of Siget and the finale U boj, u boj, which as a choral song was composed ten years before the opera itself. The great popularity of the work can be attributed to the portrayal of a real hero of Croatian history, who saved Slavonia from complete enslavement in the difficult conditions of the Turkish invasion. Although he failed to prevent the Turks from conquering some cities, Zrinski bravely died defending Siget.
In addition to the extremely patriotic atmosphere that prevails in the opera, an important characteristic of Zajč's manuscript is also visible in the differentiated presentation of two opposite worlds, each of which has its own characteristics. Carefully profiling the characters of the hero Zrinski and Sultan Sulejman according to historical facts, Zajc created as antipodes significant female characters of Croatian opera literature, Eva and Jelena, assigning them a very important dramaturgical and musical task.

Praizvedba opere Nikola Šubić Zrinjski 1876. godine Ivana pl. Zajca, osnivača i organizatora zagrebačkoga opernog kazališta, bila je višestruko važan kulturološki događaj, između ostaloga i zato što je označila rođenje još jedne umjetničke grane unutar Hrvatskoga narodnog kazališta u Zagrebu – Baleta. Tematizirajući posljednje sigetske dane hrvatskog junaka Nikole Šubića Zrinskog i njegovu junačku pogibiju, djelo je već na praizvedbi doživjelo nezapamćen uspjeh, zadržavši do danas počasno mjesto na hrvatskoj opernoj sceni. Najveći ushit izazvala je potresna zakletva sigetskih junaka i finale U boj, u boj, koji je kao zborska pjesma skladan deset godina prije same opere. Veliku popularnost djelo može zahvaliti portretiranju stvarnog junaka hrvatske povijesti, koji je u teškim uvjetima turske najezde spasio Slavoniju od potpuna porobljavanja. Iako nije uspio spriječiti Turke u osvajanju nekih gradova, Zrinski je hrabro poginuo braneći Siget.
Osim iznimno domoljubna ozračja koje prevladava u operi, bitna karakteristika Zajčeva rukopisa vidljiva je i u diferenciranu prikazu dvaju suprotnih svjetova, od kojih svaki nosi svoja obilježja. Pomno profilirajući likove junaka Zrinskoga i sultana Sulejmana prema povijesnim činjenicama, Zajc je kao antipode stvorio značajne ženske likove hrvatske operne literature, Evu i Jelenu, namijenivši im vrlo važnu dramaturšku i glazbenu zadaću.
