Eine „Klimaoper“ des 17. Jahrhunderts bringen Christophe Rousset und sein Ensemble Les Talens Lyriques in das MusikTheater an der Wien: Proserpine schildert, wie Pluton, der Gott der Unterwelt, Proserpine, die Tochter der Fruchtbarkeitsgöttin Cérès, entführt und heiratet und damit die Welt in ewigen Winter stürzt. Erst durch das Eingreifen Jupiters ist Proserpine bereit, die Hälfte des Jahres bei ihrem Mann zu bleiben und die andere Hälfte auf der Erde, so dass dort wieder Frühling einkehren kann. Im Mittelpunkt von Jean-Baptiste Lullys 1680 entstandener Tragédie en musique stehen Kämpfe zwischen Göttern mit globalen Auswirkungen. Mit Proserpine beginnt der Schöpfer der französischen Barockoper eine neue Schaffensphase, in der melodisch ausdrucksvolle Arien und Ensembles einen größeren Raum einnehmen als in seinen frühen Opern. Christophe Rousset, dem MusikTheater an der Wien seit Langem eng verbunden, bringt die selten gespielte Oper zum ersten Mal nach Wien.

Deutsch

Christophe Rousset and his ensemble Les Talens Lyriques bring a “climate opera” from the 17th century to the MusikTheater an der Wien: Proserpine describes how Pluton, the god of the underworld, kidnaps and marries Proserpine, the daughter of the fertility goddess Cérès, and with it the world plunges into eternal winter. Only through Jupiter's intervention is Proserpine willing to stay with her husband for half the year and on Earth for the other half so that spring can return there. At the heart of Jean-Baptiste Lully's Tragédie en musique, written in 1680, are battles between gods with global implications. With Proserpine, the creator of French baroque opera begins a new creative phase in which melodically expressive arias and ensembles take up more space than in his early operas. Christophe Rousset, who has long been closely associated with the MusikTheater an der Wien, is bringing the rarely performed opera to Vienna for the first time.
