| National Theatre, Munich, Munich, Germany Friday 20-Sep-13 07:00pm Variety is a scarce commodity in the glum little village depicted by Gaetano Donizetti and his librettist Felice Romani – the only prospects beyond the stifling confines of this backwater seem to be the illusion of a hero’s life as a soldier, even if it might lead to an untimely death.
But what wonders a little bottle of Bordeaux can work! Shrinking violet Nemorino really turns up the volume courting Adina after just a couple of sips of the love elixir he purchased from miracle doctor, Dulcamara. And the potion promptly takes effect. Nemorino turns into a daredevil, preferring to die in battle rather than see his beloved Adina fall into the hands of strapping Sergeant Belcore. The ambitious Adina cannot resist the charms of the bold Nemorino – and even Dulcamara is flabbergasted at the energy and transformation released by his deception: this woebegone world of dolorous yearning is suddenly filled with color and fantasy.
And the listeners are left with the hope that this music might be able to transform them, too.
Italian with German surtitles

| Deutsche Oper, Berlin, Bismarckstraße 35, Berlin, Germany Friday 25-Apr-14 07:30pm In Italian with German surtitles. Gaetano Donizetti himself described his ELIXIR OF LOVE, which premiered in 1832, as an “opera buffa”, yet there is little to laugh about in this supposedly comic opera. No different from his DON PASQUALE, composed a decade later, ELIXIR OF LOVE is a work whose mirth is rooted in gentle melancholy. Despite the happy end, the chance that things might have taken a turn for the worse is ever-present, as is the threat that the misunderstandings and coincidences that pepper the narrative of ELIXIR OF LOVE do not always turn out all right in real life. The story recounted by Donizetti and his librettist Felice Romani is a simple one: Adina and Nemorino are in love, yet neither can pluck up the courage to confess their love for the other person. Not until he recalls a single tear in Adina's eye, the famous “furtiva lagrima”, does Nemorino realise that his love is requited, triggering one of the most famous tenor arias in the history of opera. This production of ELIXIR OF LOVE at the Deutsche Oper Berlin is in the capable hands of a director who has repeatedly served notice of her proficiency in mounting operatic and theatrical works based on more lightweight material. Irina Brook has staged works such as Rossini's LA CENERENTOLA and Händel's GIULIO CESARE for the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées in Paris and was recently contracted for the Salzburg Festival with a new production of Ibsen's “Peer Gynt” and Shakespeare's “The Tempest”.
