Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Libros

"La folle journée ou Le mariage de Figaro" es una obra teatral de Pierre Augustin Caron, conocido como Beaumarchais, que causó gran revuelo en París a principios de la década de 1780. En esta "continuación" del "Barbier de Sevilla", Beaumarchais critica numerosos problemas del Francia absolutista. Aunque el libretista de Mozart, Lorenzo Da Ponte, no pudo adoptar el tema con toda su mordacidad para una ópera que se presentaría en un entorno bajo el dominio del emperador austríaco, logró crear un libreto ingenioso que se ve realzado por la música única de Mozart. La obra explora temas como la lucha de clases, el amor y la astucia, todo en un contexto de enredos y malentendidos. La historia sigue a Figaro y Susanna en su camino hacia el matrimonio, enfrentando obstáculos y la intervención de personajes como el conde Almaviva. La combinación de humor y crítica social hace de esta ópera una de las más queridas del repertorio clásico.

A selection of Mozart's letters, translated into English, complete with notes, linking commentary and chronology.

After the first act, the Elector loudly exclaimed "Bravo!" - not knowing if he could stay much longer, so the aria and the storm scene had to be performed at the beginning of the second act. Following this, he again expressed his approval in the friendliest manner, laughingly remarking, "One would not think that something so great could be contained in such a small head." This reflects the remarkable creativity and emotional depth of "Idomeneo," an opera that explores themes of duty, sacrifice, and the struggle between personal desire and responsibility. Set in ancient Crete, the story follows King Idomeneo, who, after surviving a storm at sea, vows to sacrifice the first living being he encounters upon his return. This leads to a series of dramatic conflicts involving love, betrayal, and divine intervention, ultimately culminating in a powerful resolution that examines the nature of leadership and the burdens it carries. Mozart's masterful score enhances the emotional and thematic richness of the narrative, making "Idomeneo" a significant work in the operatic canon.

Mozart's "Don Giovanni," since its Prague premiere in 1787, has become one of the most performed and beloved operas, rooted in the age-old figure of the "womanizer." The character of the impulsive Don Juan has been a subject of exploration and discussion throughout the ages. The audience's identification with this stage figure contributes to its success. Beyond this, the opera's enduring appeal in performances is attributed to the combination of a sophisticated libretto by Da Ponte and Mozart's distinctive music. This book includes the libretto along with introductory comments by Kurt Pahlen, who provides insights into the musical and dramatic events of the opera, addressing compositional structure and thematic connections. A brief summary of the plot and an overview of the work's genesis place it within the broader context of the composer's oeuvre and biography, offering a comprehensive, richly illustrated introduction.

„Zauberflöte“ byla původně zamýšlena jako lidová hra pro několik desítek představení v jednom vídeňském předměstském divadle, když požádal Mozarta o její zkomponování. Obsah opery byl mnohokrát interpretován. Někteří viděli v této opeře čistě svobodnomyslné dílo, jiní se domnívali, že Schikaneder dal volný průchod své fantazii, když do veselého děje zakomponoval některé svobodnomyslné prvky z výchovného románu „Sethos“ od abbé Jean Terrassona. Libretista a skladatel vytvořili kaleidoskop jako symbol lidského života, jehož vyjádření pravého humanismu oslovuje každého člověka. Není tedy divu, že „Zauberflöte“ se často stává prvním operním zážitkem i pro velmi mladé lidi. Tato opera je bohatě ilustrována a poskytuje komplexní pohled na dílo v kontextu skladatelova celkového díla a jeho biografie.
