Giuseppe Verdi RIGOLETTO
Opera in three
acts Libretto by Francesco Piave (performed in Italian) (12 characters,
38 musicians & 12 chorus singers) Staged by Yuri Alexandrov Premiere: 13 May 1997
Yuri Alexandrov’s version destroys the operatic cliches,
sometimes denoted as tradition, which have come to be associated with
productions of Rigoletto, and brings the opera closer to the composer’s original
concept. The hunchbacked Rigoletto is morally flawed, his soul warped, and the
hump and the mask are merely the character’s buffoon-like external image. The
motif of the mask, the inherently evil masquerade that is life, runs through the
whole opera.
