radio klassik Stephansdom

2008 inszenierte Martin Kušej, nun mehr Burgtheaterdirektor, Igor Strawinskys The Rake's Progress im Theater an der Wien. Am Ende der Direktion von Roland Geyer stand gestern Giacomo Puccinis Allzeit-Hit Tosca in Kušejs Lesart zur Premiere bereit. Das Publikum war gespannt. Musikchefin Ursula Magnes ebenso. Tosca. Dazu haben viele Opernfreundinnen und -freunde ähnlich wie bei Carmen oder Aida eine gewisse Vorstellung oder zumindest lieb gewonnene Erinnerungen an vergangene Opernaufführungen, fein sortiert im Karteikästchen des Erlebten. Tja, diese Tosca von Puccini nach dem Drama von Victorien Sardou – was bleibt, wenn der Regisseur die Kirche als Ort, den Palazzo Farnese und die Engelsburg in Rom mit Dauerschnee, einem zentralen Kreuzes- und Schmerzensbaum mit zerstückeltem Opfer samt Marterl, und einen Wohnwagen bespielt? Was bleibt im Stück? Kälte, Gewalt, Eifersucht, Macht, sexuelle Bedrängnis, Religion und das heutige Leben mit Kapitolstürmern, Querdenkern, Polizeigewalt und dazwischen eingequetscht zwei Künstler: der Maler Mario Cavaradossi und die Sängerin Floria Tosca. Damit ist das Publikum zwei intensive Stunden ohne Pause konfrontiert. Mit der punktgenauen, nie zögerlichen Musik Puccinis ergibt das eine Hochschaubahn der Gefühle und innerer Gedankenwelt. Keiner der drei Protagonisten entkommt seinem Schicksal: Der Maler ermalt keine Freiheit, die Sängerin ersingt keine Liebe und der Polizeichef verfehlt trotz sadistischer Machtausübung sein Ziel. Ein brutales Kammerspiel, in dem Martin Kušej diese Gewalt mit Versatzstücken wie fliegenden Körperteilen und sehr zupackendem Schauspiel vor Augen führt. Dazu braucht es ein Ensemble, das das auch kann! Kristine Opolais ist eine erfahrene Tosca. Sie genießt es sichtlich an ihre Grenzen zu gehen; stimmlich wie darstellerisch. Im Gegensatz zum Original, wird sie am Ende durch die Gräfin Attavanti, dargestellt durch die Schauspielerin Sophie Aujesky, erschossen. Wohl auch mangels Engelsburg, um in den Tiber zu springen… Getötet vom Gift der Eifersucht, das Polizeichef Scarpia geschickt verstreut. Ihr „Vissi d'arte, vissi d'amore“ wird zur verzweifelten Anklage zwischen Scarpia und Gott. Der junge chilenische Tenor Jonathan Tetelman lockte wohl einige prominente Operndirektoren ins Theater an der Wien. So kraftvoll, geradezu strotzend hat man „Recondita armonia“ schon lange nicht mehr gehört. Und im Wechselspiel mit dem Soloklarinettisten des RSO Wien gelang auch „E lucevan le stelle“ ausgesungen und stark. Kein Hauch der Erinnerung – vielmehr Höhe und Kraft in der Tenorstimme wie es die Rolle verlangt. Gábor Bretz unschuldig schick elegant in weiß gekleidet sang einen zutiefst unsympathischen, heimtückischen Polizeichef Scarpia. Eine tolle Leistung. Marc Albrecht hat das Dirigat in der Probenarbeit relativ spät vom erkrankten Ingo Metzmacher übernommen. Da ist in den fünf Folgevorstellungen sicher noch einiges an musikalischen Feinheiten drin. Die Schnellkraft der Partitur Puccinis ist gegeben. Sie schrammt an genialer Filmmusik und weist damit anno 1900 weit in die Zukunft. Das Publikum beklatschte die Sänger und Musiker. Gestärktes Buh für Martin Kušej. Fazit: unbedingt anschauen.

„Vissi d’arte“ – ein Leben für die Kunst. Kurz bevor die berühmte Sängerin Floria Tosca dem bestialischen Zyniker Scarpia das Messer in die Brust stößt, besingt sie in wehmütiger Rückschau ihr Leben. Auch wenn die Arie die Ruhe vor dem Sturm markiert – den Tod ihres Widersachers –, weist dieser Wendepunkt in Giacomo Puccinis Oper auch auf Toscas Schicksal hin. Oft hat die Primadonna assoluta des 20. Jahrhunderts, Maria Callas, diese Arie gesungen. Seit Jahrzehnten ist Marina Abramović vom Leben der „Tigerin“ – wie die Callas genannt wurde – fasziniert. Nun hat sie das Opernprojekt 7 Deaths of Maria Callas konzipiert, in der exemplarisch sieben Bühnentode anhand der musikalisch wie szenisch prägenden Höhepunkte aus der jeweiligen Oper – alles Arien, die für Maria Callas von großer Bedeutung waren – nachempfunden werden. In sieben Filmen wird Marina Abramović zusammen mit Willem Dafoe sieben Mal sterben und am Ende des Abends, wenn es um den realen Tod von Maria Callas 1977 in Paris geht, selbst als Performerin auf der Bühne stehen. Ergänzend zu den bekannten Arien aus dem 19. und 20. Jahrhundert wird der serbische Komponist Marko Nikodijević für die musikalische Gestaltung der Oper Musik komponieren und dabei schildern, dass Callas’ bedingungsloses Leben für die Kunst nie eine Trennung zwischen Bühnenerscheinung und Privatperson zuließ.

When things go from bad to worse for Tosca, Puccini’s tragic heroine, she turns inward and prays. “I lived for art,” she tells God, “I lived for love.” What did I do to deserve all this? Tosca's despair and the moving way Puccini captures it musically speak so directly to artists, to audiences, to all of us, that "Vissi d'arte" has become one of the most famous arias in opera. In this episode, host Rhiannon Giddens and her guests consider what it means to "live for art" and how Tosca's lament has given them much needed strength, whether facing personal struggles, the darkest days of the AIDS epidemic or the persistent sexual harassment that sparked the #MeToo movement. Plus, you'll hear soprano Sondra Radvanovksy sing the complete aria from the Metropolitan Opera stage. The Guests Sondra Radvanovsky first sang Tosca in Denver and didn't quite anticipate how the high altitude would leave her even more breathless than the music! In the many years since, she's established herself as one of the great Puccini (and Verdi) singers and returns to the Met as Floria Tosca in March 2019. Rufus Wainwright comes from a famously musical family, but his curiosity took him far beyond his singer-songwriter roots. As a child, he used to stage operas at home with his siblings and, as an adult, he's written the two operas, Prima Donna and Hadrian. Vivien Schweitzer is a pianist and the author of the new book A Mad Love: An Introduction to Opera. She worked for ten years as a classical music and opera critic for the New York Times. She has also written for the BBC, the Moscow Times, and The Economist.

On this episode of Opera for Everyone we listen to the opera Tosca by Giacomo Puccini. Tosca is an opera in three acts with an Italian libretto by Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa. It premiered in 1900 in Rome, Italy at the Teatro Costanzi. The story is based on the French-language play "La Tosca" by Victorien Sardou. It's a melodrama set in Rome in June 1800, where Napoleon's invasion of Italy threatens the Kingdom of Naples' control of the city. The drama - based on real life events - focuses on an escaped political prisoner named Cesare Angelotti, his friend the famous painter Mario Cavaradossi, and Cavaradossi's lover, the beautiful, devout and talented singer Floria Tosca. Tosca is a passionate, dynamic opera fueled by deception, murder, suicide, and love, and it features some of Puccini's best-known and loved arias.
