«New paths for Verdi; an opera that runs almost like a movie theater »- Director Andreas Homoki and General Music Director Fabio Luisi talk about the special features of Verdi's Nabucco. Premiere on Jun 23, 2019. https://www.opernhaus.ch/nabucco

Andreas Homoki & Fabio Luisi on Verdi's “Nabucco” - Zurich Opera House

The famous prisoners' chorus, "Va, pensiero, sull'ali dorate", is considered the heart of Giuseppe Verdi's Nabucco: The Hebrews, whose temple city Jerusalem was destroyed by the Babylonians, lament their fate. They are trapped in Babylonian exile and at the mercy of King Nabucco, who overestimates himself. Against the background of this Babylonian-Hebrew conflict from the sixth century BC, Verdi unfolds the drama of individual destinies, such as that of Abigaille, an unhappy lover who initially believes she is Nabucco's daughter, but then learns that she is descended from a slave. With her, Verdi created an operatic heroine who, early on in the Italian composer's operatic output, revealed all the individuality and psychological turmoil of a strong Verdi character. No less fascinating is the character of Nabucco, who changes from megalomaniac oppressor of the Hebrew people to follower of Jehovah. Out of a deep life crisis - after the death of his first wife and his two children and the failure of his previous operaUn giorno di regno – Verdi found his own musico-dramatic language through the Nabucco composition and was celebrated for it at the premiere in 1842 at the Milan Scala. General Music Director Fabio Luisi will also conduct the revival of this opera. Baritone Dalibor Jenis can be heard as Nabucco. For a very special gala performance, we were able to win Plácido Domingo for the title role, who switched from tenor to baritone a few years ago.

English

Der berühmte Gefangenenchor, «Va, pensiero, sull’ali dorate», gilt als Herzstück von Giuseppe Verdis Nabucco: Die Hebräer, deren Tempelstadt Jerusalem von den Babyloniern zerstört wurde, beklagen ihr Schicksal. Sie sind gefangen im babylonischen Exil und der Willkür des sich masslos überschätzenden Königs Nabucco ausgeliefert. Vor dem Hintergrund dieses babylonisch-hebräischen Konflikts aus dem sechsten vorchristlichen Jahrhundert entfaltet Verdi das Drama individueller Schicksale, etwa das von Abigaille, einer unglücklich Liebenden, die sich zunächst für die Tochter Nabuccos hält, dann aber erfahren muss, dass sie von einer Sklavin abstammt. Mit ihr schuf Verdi eine Opernheldin, die früh im Opernschaffen des italienischen Komponisten die ganze Individualität und psychologische Zerrissenheit eines starken Verdi-Charakters offenbart. Nicht weniger faszinierend ist der Charakter Nabuccos, der sich vom grössenwahnsinnigen Unterdrücker des hebräischen Volks zum Anhänger Jehovas wandelt. Aus einer tiefen Lebenskrise heraus – nach dem Tod seiner ersten Frau und seiner beiden Kinder sowie dem Misserfolg seiner vorherigen Oper Un giorno di regno – fand Verdi über die Nabucco-Komposition zu seiner eigenen musikdramatischen Sprache und wurde bei der Uraufführung 1842 an der Mailänder Scala dafür gefeiert. Generalmusikdirektor Fabio Luisi dirigiert auch die Wiederaufnahme dieser Oper. Als Nabucco ist Bariton Dalibor Jenis zu erleben. Für eine ganz besondere Gala-Vorstellung konnten wir Plácido Domingo für die Titelpartie gewinnen, der vor einigen Jahren vom Tenor- ins Bariton-Fach wechselte.
