Giulio Cesare in Egitto Händel

Libreto: Giacomo Francesco Bussani, Nicola Francesco HaymU prvom činu scena je obogaćena zanimljivim detaljem, svaki je solist iza sebe imao ekran na kojemu ...

The love story of Julius Caesar and Queen Cleopatra is one of Handel’s best operas. A genuine cosmopolite, Handel honed the Italian baroque opera tradition to perfection while enjoying the height of his popularity in London. Opera was the perfect match to baroque’s decorative and dramatic exuberance. 

In Giulio Cesare in Egitto, power and love are intertwined. The opera is fuelled with energy from the delectable music and the believable characters of the story. This production is a musical tragicomedy, a fast-paced battle for love.  

The director of the production, Marin Blažević, is also the artistic director and head dramaturge of the Opera Company of Croatian National Theatre in Rijeka. He has weaved multiple layers into the story. The performance starts with a rehearsal, builds up and evolves into a masterful opera spectacle, begins to fall apart, and eventually disappears. In the midst of all the entertaining extravaganza, “we’re searching for ways to make our Giulio Cesare both relatable and current, both in terms of global politics and the pandemic,” the director says.  

Giulio Cesare is making history at the Savonlinna Opera Festival as the first baroque opera by Handel performed on the Olavinlinna stage. The lead role is sung by Diana Haller, the sought-after virtuoso of baroque repertoire.

U proljeće 2016., 292 godine nakon praizvedbe u Londonu, riječkoj publici predstavili smo „Julija Cezara u Egiptu” (Giulio Cesare in Egitto), jednu od danas najizvođenijih baroknih opera, prvu izvedbu neke Händelove opere u Rijeci i prvu izvedbu neke barokne opere uopće na pozornici „Zajca”. Premijeru „Cezara” obilježio je tada i riječki operni debi naše Diane Haller, a godinu dana kasnije oduševili smo ljubljansku publiku na gostovanju u Cankarjevom domu. Ove godine riječki „Julije Cezar u Egiptu” predstavljat će nas na jednom od najprestižnijih opernih festivala u Europi, Savonlinna Opera Festivalu. Tim povodom odlučili smo „Julija Cezara u Egiptu” ne samo obnoviti nego i uvelike iznova režirati. U tome će nam pomoći i nova imena u podjeli. I to kakva imena! Eksplozivnoj i auto-ironičnoj Diani Haller u naslovnoj ulozi Cezara i briljantnoj anti-primadoni Anamariji Knego kao njegovoj/njezinoj neodoljivoj Kleopatri, te koloraturnoj-atletičarki Sonji Runje kao njihovom zajedničkom smrtnom neprijatelju Tolomeu, pridružuju se nacionalna prvakinja, operna zvijer, Dubravka Šeparović Mušović kao zlostavljana ali prkosna Kornelija, zatim nova prvakinja našeg Kazališta, mezzo-sopranistica kristalnoga glasa Michaela Selinger, kao neodoljivo-ženoliki Pompejev sin Sesto, te – prvi puta na pozornici riječke Opere – mladi dirigent-kontratenor Franko Klisović u ulozi Nireno/a (on/ona). Za dirigentskim pultom i čembalom ponovno – Ville Matvejeff. Händelovu operu muzički i redateljski iznova „čitamo” kao uglazbljenu šekspirijansku tragikomediju, odnosno tzv. „romancu”, u kojoj se ironično-komične scene, odnosi i tonovi izmjenjuju i često isprepliću s prizorima tragičke patnje, naročito u arijama Kleopatre i Kornelije, ili pak hamletovskim osvetničkim dilemama u arijama i recitativima Sesta. Predstavu ponovno započinjemo kao „sjedeću” odnosno „Sitz” probu, tijekom koje se pjevači u pravilu prvi put „susreću” s orkestrom. Takva naizgled obična proba, u kojoj se izvođači pojavljuju i ponašaju kao „oni sami”, postupno se trasnformira u ultimativni, recikliran i barokno eklektičan operni spektakl. Polazimo, dakle, od istih pretpostavki kao prije četiri godine. Ali ubrzo nakon srodnog početka slijede – iznenađenja, obrati, novi izvedbeni izazovi.
