Hector Berlioz has gone down in history as a romantic and an innovator, almost indeed a trouble-maker. Paying scant attention to the demands of fashion, in everything he was a maximalist. Those who asked for Berlioz' autograph in their albums risked receiving the response of the impromptu "Chorus for four hundred and two voices in an unknown Celtic language". But when it comes to serious works then he borrowed plots from the great poets. For Les Troyens – a grand opéra in five acts – he chose Virgil's Aeneid.
Les Troyens appeared at the cross of two traditions. On the one hand it was a tribute to an admiration for the operas of the great revolutionary of the 18th century, Christoph Willibald Gluck, the continuation of his work that was imbued with Antiquity. On the other hand, Les Troyens in five acts with its choruses and ballet scenes was a true French grand opéra, the most monumental of opera's romantic genres, both in terms of the cast and in the length of the performance.
In Les Troyens there are not just two kings, there are two peoples. This is the reason why the opera's score is adorned with powerful choruses and ensembles with so many participants: a quintet, septet and octet. The dances in Acts I and III are intended not for individual soloists, but rather as crowd scenes. The anthems, marches and processions demand and require a huge amount of people on the stage. In accordance with the laws of French grand opéra there had to be a ballet in Act IV. The act would open with an entire ballet scene – "Royal Hunt and Storm".
At the Mariinsky Theatre Les Troyens only appeared in the 21st century. The current production is the second visit by the theatre and Valery Gergiev to this mammoth opera. The Stage Director and Set Designer of Les Troyens is the Frenchman of Greek descent, Yannis Kokkos. In St Petersburg he has revived his production of 2003, which was staged to celebrate two centuries since the birth of Berlioz in Paris. The stylish and laconic set designs cleverly make use of a gigantic mirror: its reflection makes the impressive events depicted within it even more grandiose and majestic.

Based on the Théâtre du Châtelet-Paris’ production created by Yannis Kokkos (Premiere: 11 October 2003), in co-production with the Grand Théâtre de Genève

English

В качестве литературной основы для «Троянцев» Гектор Берлиоз выбрал ни много ни мало «Энеиду» Вергилия. «Троянцы» – это настоящая французская большая опера, самый монументальный из романтических оперных жанров. Здесь действуют не только цари, но и целые народы, и потому партитуру украшают мощные хоры и ансамбли с внушительным числом участников. Гимны, марши, шествия требуют огромного количества артистов на сцене. Режиссером и сценографом оперного гиганта выступил француз греческого происхождения Яннис Коккос. Он воскресил свой спектакль 2003 года, который ставил к празднествам в честь двухсотлетия Берлиоза в Париже. В стильной и лаконичной сценографии удачно использовано в качестве главного элемента огромное зеркало: отраженные в нем грандиозные события становятся еще более величественными.


По мотивам постановки Янниса Коккоса в театре Шатле (премьера: 11 октября 2003 года),
в сотрудничестве с Большим театром Женевы
