| Opernhaus, Zürich, Opernhaus Falkenstrasse 1, Zürich 8008, Switzerland Saturday 29-Jun-13 07:00pm The court of the Duke of Mantua is the scene of glittering festivities. However, the courtiers who enjoy themselves at these celebrations are morally reprobate. They no longer have any values and amuse themselves out of sheer boredom. Here, to enjoy oneself means to humiliate and demean others. The court jester, Rigoletto, is the most cynical of all. He wants to protect only his daughter Gilda from the corrupt world. He locks her away and forbids her everything. Despite this, the young woman goes her own way. She develops from a rebellious teenager into a mature, loving woman. Her longing for freedom and self-determination is stronger than her father’s oppressive authoritarianism, and her faith in love remains unshakeable, despite the hypocrisy of society. Like so many of Verdi’s figures, Gilda achieves what she failed to do in life only in death – to take the step towards freedom.
With Rigoletto, Giuseppe Verdi attained a new level in his musical and dramatic oeuvre. He composes the scenes and successive images in a highly precise manner, at times almost like a film editor. The score reveals a brilliant juxtaposition of psychological ambiguity and melodic directness. There are strong contrasts in atmosphere. Giuseppe Verdi wrote Rigoletto during the politically volatile post-revolutionary period around 1850. His decision to base his opera on Victor Hugo’s play, Le Roi s’amuse (The King amuses himself), was an extremely socio-critical choice. Rigoletto is one of the Italian composer’s most sinister operas.
Tatjana Gürbaca will stage the piece, which will be her début at Zurich Opera House. The German director is now one of the most prominent of her generation; this is also because she preserves a feminine view of the works she stages. The internationally sought-after Alexandra Kurzak will be performing Gilda, and Quinn Kelsey, who is considered a sensational discovery among Verdi baritones, will be singing Rigoletto. The experienced Verdi expert Fabio Luisi will be at the rostrum.

| National Theatre, Munich, Munich, Germany Wednesday 17-Jul-13 07:00pm The first performance of the first opera in Verdi's legendary "trilogia popolare" at the Teatro La Fenice in Venice was preceded by a tricky battle with the censor. After all, the play by Victor Hugo on which it was based, about the cynical hedonism of an aristocrat, had been a hot potato throughout Europe since 1832, when it was banned immediately after its first performance in Paris. Verdi was interested less in criticism of the ruling classes and more in the tragedy of the court jester whose existence is devastated. The deformed entertainer in a world of men who consume women pulls out all the stops in his sarcasm and yet believes that he will remain unharmed by his public actions if he merely separates them cleanly from his private happiness. But when his daughter, imprisoned in a remote location for her own protection, follows her own longing, she becomes the victim of his double existence. A lonely, pitiable clown? "An amoral petty bourgeois man", thinks Arpad Schilling, "who dreams of innocence. A husband mourning for his wife and filled with a thirst for revenge. A great actor to whom success is more important than his own daughter. The fool of a noble lord who has been cheated by his own happiness. Verdi can do what Shakespeare does: He can tell a story in such a way as to make us shudder."

| National Theatre, Munich, Munich, Germany Saturday 26-Apr-14 07:00pm The first performance of the first opera in Verdi's legendary "trilogia popolare" at the Teatro La Fenice in Venice was preceded by a tricky battle with the censor. After all, the play by Victor Hugo on which it was based, about the cynical hedonism of an aristocrat, had been a hot potato throughout Europe since 1832, when it was banned immediately after its first performance in Paris. Verdi was interested less in criticism of the ruling classes and more in the tragedy of the court jester whose existence is devastated. The deformed entertainer in a world of men who consume women pulls out all the stops in his sarcasm and yet believes that he will remain unharmed by his public actions if he merely separates them cleanly from his private happiness. But when his daughter, imprisoned in a remote location for her own protection, follows her own longing, she becomes the victim of his double existence. A lonely, pitiable clown? "An amoral petty bourgeois man", thinks Arpad Schilling, "who dreams of innocence. A husband mourning for his wife and filled with a thirst for revenge. A great actor to whom success is more important than his own daughter. The fool of a noble lord who has been cheated by his own happiness. Verdi can do what Shakespeare does: He can tell a story in such a way as to make us shudder."
