Davel - du 29 janvier au 5 février Infos & billetterie → www.opera-lausanne.ch

Ici Davel donna sa vie pour son pays. 24 avril 1723. » Tels sont les mots que le promeneur peut lire sur le monument érigé à Vidy à la mémoire du célèbre major, à l‘endroit-même où s‘élevait le gibet bernois de sa décapitation. Que reste-t-il aujourd‘hui de cette figure de martyr entrée dans la légende en 1803 avec l‘indépendance vaudoise et élevée ensuite au rang d‘icône au gré d‘innombrables publications et manifestations à mi-chemin entre histoire et folklore ? Trois cent cinquante ans après sa naissance à Morrens, l‘Opéra de Lausanne a demandé à deux artistes vaudois de s‘emparer de cette figure charismatique et de la faire résonner en mots et en notes aux oreilles du public d‘aujourd‘hui. Au bout de trois années de travail, ils sont prêts à nous révéler les doutes et les certitudes de son combat, au contact de personnages-clés de sa tragédie : le Bernois Ludwig von Wattenwyl, haut commandant du Pays de Vaud chargé de mener l‘enquête contre lui, l‘ami et traître Jean-Daniel de Crousaz, qui l‘a dénoncé au pouvoir bernois, et cette Belle Inconnue, incarnation fugitive et lumineuse de ses visions mystiques qui sont au cœur de la révélation de son destin. Un voyage artistique et historique que le spectateur est invité à prolonger à travers la lecture d‘un ouvrage consacré à la genèse de la création et à l‘évolution dramatique et musicale de la figure de Davel à travers les siècles.

“Here Davel gave his life for his country. 24 April 1723. These are the words that the walker can read on the monument erected in Vidy in memory of the famous major, on the very spot where the Bernese gallows where he was beheaded stood. What remains today of this martyred figure who became a legend in 1803 with the independence of Vaud and was subsequently elevated to the rank of icon halfway between history and folklore by countless publications and events? Three hundred and fifty years after his birth in Morrens, the Opéra de Lausanne asked two artists from the canton of Vaud to capture this charismatic figure and to make him resonate in words and notes for today’s audience. After three years of work, they are ready to reveal the doubts and certainties of his struggle, together with the key characters of his tragedy: the Bernese Ludwig von Wattenwyl, the high commander of the Pays de Vaud in charge of the investigation against him, friend and traitor Jean-Daniel de Crousaz, who denounced him to the Bernese authorities, and the Belle Inconnue, a fleeting, luminous incarnation of his mystical visions which are at the heart of the revelation of his destiny. An artistic and historical journey that the spectator is invited to extend through the reading of a book devoted to the genesis of the creation and the dramatic and musical evolution of the figure of Davel through the centuries.
