As Romantic composers go, Berlioz is the most controversial. His last opera, Beatrice and Benedict, was inspired from Shakespeare’s comedy Much Ado About Nothing and received acclaim when it premiered in 1862 in Baden-Baden. Two visions of love stand between four young people: the safety of home versus unbridled desire. Claudio and Héro embody the innocence of marital love, while Beatrice and Benedict are so scared of the shackles of marriage that they refuse to acknowledge their attraction for one another and pretend to feel hatred instead. The conspiratorial tendencies of their controlling society of surveillance finally pushes them to give in. To tell this story, Berlioz composed music he described as “one of the liveliest and most original that I have written, that requires excessive delicacy in execution.” Director Damiano Michieletto expressed his fascination with the composer’s visionary genius, which “goes beyond the capacity to tell a story, and turns such a story into a personal journey during which the music transcends space and widens horizons.”

English

La comédie de Shakespeare Beaucoup de bruit pour rien inspire Béatrice et Bénédict, la dernière oeuvre lyrique de Berlioz, le plus controversé des compositeurs romantiques. La création à Baden-Baden, en 1862, est un triomphe. Entre quatre jeunes gens se jouent deux conceptions de l’amour : la sécurité du foyer, la sauvagerie du désir. Claudio et Héro incarnent innocemment l’amour conjugal. Béatrice et Bénédict ont si peur de la prison du mariage qu’ils refusent de reconnaître leur mutuelle attirance et inventent de se haïr. La conspiration de leur milieu, société de surveillance et de contrôle, a raison de leur résistance.
Berlioz compose, pour porter cette histoire, une musique qu’il décrit comme « une des plus vives et des plus originales, qui exige une excessive délicatesse d’exécution. » Le metteur en scène Damiano Michieletto, pour sa part, est fasciné par le génie visionnaire de Berlioz, qui « ne s’arrête pas à la narration d’une histoire mais la transforme en un voyage personnel, où sa musique agrandit les espaces, élargit l’horizon. »
