This is "MASKENBALL-Trailer" by Theater Bonn on Vimeo, the home for high quality videos and the people who love them.

The true political driving forces are of a private nature – that is not rarely the case in Giuseppe Verdi’s works. In UN BALLO IN MASCHERA he links the historical example of the assassination attempt on the Swedish King Gustav with a love story.  Verdi took the murder of Gustav III, who in the course of a masked ball was killed, as the basis for this opera that was intended to have its premiere at the Teatro San Carlo in Naples. The MASKED BALL wound up premiering in Rome, thanks to Verdi’s strong will after a rocky period in the work’s genesis.

It is easy to understand why the censors in the Kingdom of Naples - after the assassination attempt on Ferdinand II in 1856 – rejected the plot of an opera with the assassination of a king, despite it taking place in faraway Sweden and in the year 1792. Verdi had a court confirm that the censor’s requested modifications would ruin his work. He withdrew the work from the theater in Naples and decided to have it premiered in Rome, but there, too, depoliticization was demanded – the authorities were nervous everywhere

Such considerations in our times play no role and so, it will be interesting to see how Sir David Pountney, in the second part of his Verdi trilogy for Bonn – after THE SICILIAN VESPERS – will handle this aspect of Verdi’s work in the “Verdi machine” he developed for three Verdi opera productions.

English

Die wahren politischen Triebkräfte sind privater Natur – jedenfalls nicht selten bei Giuseppe Verdi. In UN BALLO IN MASCHERA verknüpft er die historische Vorlage des Attentats auf den schwedischen König Gustav III. mit einer Liebesgeschichte. Verdi nahm die Ermordung Gustav III., der im Zuge eines Maskenballs umgebracht wurde, zum Anlass für dieses Werk, das für das Teatro San Carlo in Neapel bestimmt war. Der MASKENBALL entstand in Rom, und zwar dank der Willensstärke Verdis nach einer bewegten Schaffensperiode.

Dass die Zensurbehörde im Königreich Neapel – nach dem Attentat auf Ferdinand II. von 1856 – eine Oper mit einem Königsmord ablehnte, war nachvollziehbar, auch wenn deren Handlung im fernen Schweden und im Jahre 1792 spielt. Verdi ließ sich gerichtlich bestätigen, dass die erforderlichen Änderungen sein Werk entstellten. Er zog die Oper zurück und vergab die Uraufführung nach Rom. Aber auch dort wurde Entpolitisierung verlangt – die Behörden waren überall nervös.

Derlei Überlegungen spielen heutigentags keine Rolle mehr, so dass man gespannt darauf sein darf, wie Sir David Pountney im für Bonn zweiten Teil – nach der SIZILIANISCHEN VESPER – seiner Verdi-Trilogie sich innerhalb in der von ihm entwickelten »Verdi-Maschine« dem Thema stellt.
