Rigoletto – opera concertante – in Munich

MUNICH: Giuseppe Verdi´s opera Rigoletto is at the Festspiele program this summer in Munich. With a gorgeouse Joseph Calleja as the Duke of Mantova in a tasteless beige outfit.

Rigoletto is advertised as an opera. To my experience I notice it as a concertversion of an opera, with 1 white curtatin, who could be moved around and decorated, in addition to a sliding chair section, which could be split in two, on which the singers was sitting, laying and using it for everything else. Daily wear, except that for the very least scene they dress up Rigoletto and Gilda in evening galla outfit, I dont understand why
Prior to direct intervention, good medical practice How long does cialis take to work? Transdermal penile delivery of vasoactive drugs is.
. Wasn´t the daily outfit, and the “handsome” beige lumber jacket, used for the Duke, good enough? Well they let the Duke change outfit to a handsome, colourful, morning coat before he left somewhere vehind the useful white curtain to meet Gilda.
However, This production of Rigoletto fits very well in to the bad taste line, together with the scandalouse, bad taste, new Simone Boccanegra, reviewed here in Kulturkompasset a few days a go. Don´t the operachief think about the renommé for the house? What will the future be if productions continues in this direction?
How will the future be for the Münchener Festspiele? Does the audience arrive for this kind of shows, or are they blind?
When a performance is announced as an opera, then the audience is expecting to see something which is looking like the advertised opera. They expect to see costumes, scenography that has something to do with with they have read about and bought expensive tickets for.
They presented the gorgeouse tenor Joseph Calleja, who saved it all musically, he has an extraordinary beautiful tenor, who is perfect for this role, he was a big success. The second act was extraordinary for him, and also partly for Gilda, Patricia Petitbon, who did her job, but didn´t seem to look well on stage, and for Rigoletto – Andrzej Dobber. Who not was the Rigoletto advertised in advance. The same was the matter with the conductor, Friedrich Halder. Who in some parts, the opening and later, was speeding up the tempo too much, so it sometimes nearly not was possible to catsch the text from the singers and choire. One famous choire part sounded like bla bla blabla, blabla blabla bla bla blablablabla bla bla bla bla. Guess which one? – The prize winner will get a free walking tour in the English Garden! – In daily wear
.
The only talented idea from the regisseur was to to let Nadia Krasteva play both roles as Maddalena and as Giovanna, the maid by Gilda. She did a good job.
The world premiere of the first opera of Verdi’s legendary “trilogia Popolare” on Venice’s Teatro La Fenice was preceded by a meticulous struggle with the censorship. But was Victor Hugo’s story about the cynical hedonism of an aristocrat since 1832, when the Paris premiere promptly followed by a ban, Europe a hot iron. Verdi was less interested in government criticism, rather than the tragedy of his existence überworfenen court jester. The deformed entertainer of women consuming their male ticks all the sarcasm and believes it to remain unscathed by his public actions, if only he neatly separates it from his private fortune. But when away his life in protective custody held by the daughter follows her own desire, she becomes the victim of his double life. A lone, bejammernswerter clown?
