Approved

From the earliest days known to the world as a musical miracle since childhood, the French composer, pianist and organist Saint-Saëns gave the musical treasury a fantasy for the Carnival of Animals Orchestra , the Third Symphony , as well as his most famous and successful opera full of romantic zeal: Samson and Delilah . a musical biblical story from the Book of Judges.It will be the second Osijek performance after 1926, when the opera was directed and conducted by maestro Lav Mirski. The opera in three acts, which Dalila (mezzo-soprano) and Samson (tenor) powerfully carry on their shoulders and vocal cords, will be conducted by maestro Filip Pavišić, while the director is already well known and appreciated by Robert Bošković. This opera, surprisingly performed only once in Osijek, premiered in Weimar, Germany in 1877, carries fundamental humanistic values, as well as the spirit of romanticism imbued with classicist elements and in an impressively powerful way tells the well-known story of the benevolent strength of a man who protects his people and the cunning beauty of a woman who wants to harm him. Originally conceived as an oratorio, Samson and Delilah , with the insight of the composer, grew into the pearl of the opera genre.

English

Od najranijih dana svijetu poznat kao glazbeno čudo od djeteta, francuski skladatelj, pijanist i orguljaš Saint-Saëns glazbenoj je riznici među ostalim podario fantaziju za orkestar Karneval životinja, Treću simfoniju, kao i svoju najpoznatiju i najuspješniju operu krcatu romantičarskog žara: Samsona i Dalilu, uglazbljenu biblijsku priču iz Knjige o Sucima. Bit će to drugo osječko uprizorenje nakon davne 1926., kad je operu režirao i ansamblom dirigirao maestro Lav Mirski. Operom u tri čina koju na svojim plećima i glasnicama moćno nose Dalila (mezzosopran) i Samson (tenor) ravnat će maestro Filip Pavišić, dok režiju potpisuje osječkoj publici već dobro znan i cijenjen Robert Bošković. Ova, u Osijeku začudno do sad samo jednom izvedena opera, koja je praizvedena u njemačkome Weimaru 1877., u sebi nosi temeljne humanističke vrijednosti, kao i duh romantizma prožet klasicističkim elementima te na dojmljivo moćan način iznosi svima poznatu priču o dobrohotnoj snazi muškarca koji štiti svoj narod i lukavoj ljepoti žene koja mu želi nauditi. Prvobitno zamišljeni kao oratorij, Samson i Dalila pronicavošću skladatelja izrasli su u biser opernoga žanra.
