Kao krunu ovogodišnjeg programa izdvajamo evropsku premijeru oratorijuma Ester, 6. februara, koji će prvi put posle više od 200 godina, biti izveden u Evropi, na Velikoj sceni Narodnog pozorišta.

 

Partitura oratorijuma Ester (1774) italijanskog kompozitora Kristijana Đuzepea Lidartija, ponovo je otkrivena tek 1997. godine i do danas se ubraja u najbogatija i najmonumentalnija dela jevrejske umetničke muzike XVII i XVIII veka.

 

Saravalov libreto, zasnovan na tekstu druge verzije Hendelovog oratorijuma (1732), “ostao je bez muzike” sve do 7. novembra 1997, kada je Ričard Endruz, bibliotekar Univerziteta Kembridž, pronašao rukom pisanu partituru Kristijana Đuzepea Lidartija pod nazivom oratorijum Ester, 1774. godine. Tada je započeo rad na rekonstrukciji dela, koji je rezultirao svetskom premijerom oratorijuma u maju 2000. u Jerusalimu, dok će beogradska publika imati priliku da prisustvuje evropskoj premijeri ovog dela.

As the crown of this year's program, we single out the European premiere of the oratorio Esther on February 6, which will be performed in Europe for the first time in more than 200 years, on the Grand Stage of the National Theatre.

 

The score of the oratorio Esther (1774) by the Italian composer Christian Giuseppe Lidarti was rediscovered only in 1997 and is still considered one of the richest and most monumental works of Jewish art music of the 17th and 18th centuries.

 

Saravalo's libretto, based on the text of the second version of Handel's oratorio (1732), "remained without music" until November 7, 1997, when Richard Andrews, a librarian at the University of Cambridge, found a handwritten score by Christian Giuseppe Lidarti called the oratorio Esther, 1774. years. Then he began work on the reconstruction of the work, which resulted in the world premiere of the oratorio in May 2000 in Jerusalem, while the Belgrade audience will have the opportunity to attend the European premiere of this work.
