Vincenzo Bellinis 1831 in Mailand uraufgeführte Oper »La sonnambula« gilt neben der nur ein halbes Jahr später herausgebrachten »Norma« als sein bedeutendstes Werk. Die im elegischen, weichen Stil komponierte ›semiseria‹ zeigt die Idylle eines abgelegenen Alpendorfes, in dem Aberglaube und Rückständigkeit die junge Waise Amina beinah ihr Lebensglück kosten, denn Amina schlafwandelt. So gerät sie nachts in das Zimmer eines fremden Mannes, wird von ihrem Geliebten Elvino der Untreue angeklagt und verlassen. Erst Rodolfo, der scheinbare Verführer und niemand anderes als der heimgekehrte Sohn des verstorbenen Grafen, kann mit seinem Wissen das Phänomen erklären, Aminas Unschuld bestätigen und die Geschichte zu ihrem Happy End führen. Regisseur Rolando Villazón inszeniert Aminas Geschichte als eine Flucht aus der Enge ihres Dorfes in eine andere, innere Welt.

Deutsch

Vincenzo Bellini's opera »La sonnambula«, which premiered in Milan in 1831, is considered to be his most important work, alongside »Norma«, which was released just six months later. The ›semiseria‹, composed in an elegiac, soft style, shows the idyll of a remote Alpine village in which superstition and backwardness almost cost the young orphan Amina her happiness in life, because Amina sleepwalks. So she ends up in the room of a strange man at night, is accused of infidelity by her lover Elvino and left. Only Rodolfo, the apparent seducer and none other than the deceased count's son who has returned home, can use his knowledge to explain the phenomenon, confirm Amina's innocence and lead the story to its happy ending. Director Rolando Villazón stages Amina's story as an escape from the confines of her village to another,
