A production of UNITEL
in co-production with
Rossini Opera Festival
and CLASSICA
“There truly is a Rossini miracle!” (Deutschlandradio). Acclaiming
the mastery of tenorissimo Juan Diego Flórez and the breathtaking
young soprano Olga Peretyatko in the lead roles, the press hailed
the premiere of Rossini’s Matilde di Shabran at the Rossini Opera
Festival in Pesaro as the “high point of the festival” (the Berlin daily
Der Tagesspiegel).
Matilde di Shabran was given its world premiere performance in
Rome in 1821. A genuine international hit, it was staged in Vienna,
London, Paris, New York and throughout Italy all before 1830. The
music of Rossini’s last “opera semiseria” – thus half serious and half
comic – contains a succession of beguiling ensemble pieces. The plot
revolves around the knight Corradino, who has withdrawn to his castle
and professes to hate his fellow humans. When he meets Matilde di
Shabran, however, he experiences unknown emotions that have
nothing to do with hatred...
Leading the Orchestra del Teatro Comunale di Bologna, conductor
Michele Mariotti commands an ideal ensemble of singers: while
Juan Diego Flórez, “perhaps the best Rossini tenor of our time”
(Deutschlandradio), sings the role of Corradino, that of Matilde is
“gorgeously sung by Olga Peretyatko” (The New York Times). Mario
Martone’s production gives pride of place to two imposing spiral
staircases that not only allow grand entrances and exits, but also
occasional displays of athleticism!
The production was recorded at the Rossini Opera Festival of Pesaro,
Italy, the composer’s birthplace and location of the world’s only
festival dedicated to researching, publishing and performing not just
Rossini’s best-known works, but also his little-known operas, gems
that have been unjustly neglected for many, many years.
