Großes Haus

Sir John Falstaff is vain and narcissistic, cowardly and cunning, in this opera by Giuseppe Verdi after
Shakespeare's The Merry Wives of Windsor and adapted by Arrigo Boito. This black comedy
performance, filmed at The Hamburg State Opera, follows Falstaff as he arrives in Windsor and sets out
to obtain financial advantage by courting two wealthy married women. His opportunistic and comically
unsuccessful seduction ploy begins to unfold, and even those trying to expose him fail to emerge
unruffled from all the confusion. This play compels the audience to keep track of all events, as chaos
ensues.

Valide

Sir John Falstaff is an anarchist who only bows to the dominion of his own pleasure, an egoist who only indulges in his absolutist abundance of power and body and would like to grind down the narrow-minded moral concepts of his fellow human beings like the city walls of a fortress by having two women parallel to each other to seduce. Of course that goes wrong, but those who want to unmask him lose a lot of feathers in the confusion they stage around him - and which the viewer just about sees through. "Tutto nel mondo è burla," but these antics are only funny because falling into the abyss poses quite a serious risk. The "Otello" librettist Arrigo Boito has distilled a linguistically ingenious libretto from Shakespeare's template with finesse, which Verdi drives to highly complex compositional heights.
