IPHIGÉNIE EN AULIDE - Repetition May 26, 2018
Repetition May 26, 2018, 6.30 PM - Antonín Dvořák Theatre
A tragic opera in three acts from 1774
Informace
 |
The libretto was written by François-Louis Gand Le Bland Du Roullet (1716-1786), based on Jean Racine’s (1639-1699) tragedy Iphigénie (1674) which was an adaptation of the ancient Greek tragedy Iphigenia in Aulis (405 BC) by Euripides (480-406 BC).
Gluck’s reformist principles were crowned by Richard Wagner’s use of leitmotifs and his sophisticated music-drama technique. This production showcases his exceptional adaptation of an original Classicist French opera inspired by ancient mythology. The plot is set during the Trojan War, at a time when King Agamemnon killed a sacred deer belonging to the goddess Artemis; to regain God’s favour in his campaign he is prepared to sacrifice his daughter Iphigénie. The motives of honour, desire for power and ambition contrast with female heroism. Performed in Richard Wagner’s (1813-1883) musical and textual adaptation from 1847 |

Performed in German with Czech and English subtitles.
The auspices of the production took over by Maciej Ruczaj, the director of the Polish Institute in Prague.
