Le Poète

The myth of Orpheus is, above all, the translation to a symbolic language of mourning after the death of a loved one: denial, negotiation and acceptance find their way of expression through the pointless endeavour of the central character to rescue Eurídice from the kingdom of Hades and of his failed pact with the divinities of the underworld. Jean Cocteau, author of the cinematographic script which is the inspiration for this opera, directed the film Orphée (1950) after losing his lover, Raymond Radiguet, who was only 20 years old. His exploration of the myth -   with allusion to Gluck’s Orfeo  - is articulated as “ the successive deaths through which a poet must pass before he is changed into oneself” 

The loss of his own partner, designer and multimedia artist Candy Jernigan,  also inspired  Philip Glass to undertake this double tribute  for what would become the first title in a trilogy of chamber operas based on Cocteau – the others are La Belle et la Bête  and Les Enfants terribles  -  which are totally independent of each other. First seen in 1993, the composer transforms the death of the young poet Cégeste into the point of departure and return of a unique descent to the underworld.

English

El mito de Orfeo es, ante todo, la traducción al lenguaje simbólico del duelo posterior a la muerte de un ser querido: la negación, la negociación y la aceptación encuentran su vía de expresión a través de la inútil pretensión del protagonista de rescatar a Eurídice del reino del Hades y de su fallido pacto con las divinidades del inframundo. Jean Cocteau -autor del guion cinematográfico que sirve de inspiración a esta ópera– dirigió su película Orphée (1950) tras haber perdido a su amante –Raymond Radiguet– con solo 20 años. Su exploración del mito –en la que no faltan guiños al Orfeo de Gluck– se articula como «las sucesivas muertes que debe atravesar un poeta antes de llegar a transformarse en sí mismo».

La muerte de su compañera –la diseñadora y artista multimedia Candy Jernigan– instó también a Philip Glass a emprender este doble homenaje con el que se convertiría en el primer título de una trilogía de óperas de cámara basadas en Cocteau –las otras son La Belle et la Bête y Les Enfants terribles–, totalmente independientes entre sí. Estrenada en 1993, convierte la muerte del joven poeta Cégeste en el punto de partida y de retorno de un particular descenso a los infiernos.
