Im letzten Jahr wurde sein 100. Geburtstag gefeiert: György Ligeti gilt als Publikumsliebling unter den Komponisten der Nachkriegsavantgarde. Am Freitag wurden die Münchner Opernfestspiele mit einer Neuinszenierung von Ligetis einziger Oper eröffnet: "Le Grand Macabre". Dirigiert hat Kent Nagano, ein früherer Musikchef der Bayerischen Staatsoper.
Fuchs, Jörn Florian www.deutschlandfunkkultur.de, Fazit
Die Oper "Le grand Macabre" von György Ligeti ist keine gewöhnliche Oper. Sie weicht von der herkömmlichen Moral- und Klangvorstellung ab. Kein Wunder: Die Handlung spielt einen Tag, bevor unsere Erde von einem Kometen zerstört wird. Da darf man nochmal ordentlich über die Stränge schlagen! Regisseur Krzysztof Warlikowski inszeniert das Stück an der Bayerischen Staatsoper. Dirigiert wird die Oper vom ehemaligen Münchner Generalmusikdirektor Kent Nagano, mit dem BR Klassik-Reporterin Sylvia Schreiber gesprochen hat.
Sex, Dekadenz und ohrenbetäubender Radau: György Ligetis Oper "Le Grand Macabre" weicht oft von der herkömmlichen Moral-und Klangvorstellung ab. Krzysztof Warlikowski inszeniert das Werk zur Eröffnung der Münchner Opernfestspiele.
Ein Komet rast auf die Erde zu. Der selbsternannte Prophet Nekrotzar verkündet den baldigen Weltuntergang. Die Menschheit fällt zurück auf ihre „basic instincts“: Es wird viel getrunken und reichlich Sex gehabt in György Ligetis einziger Oper „Le Grand Macabre“. Ein apokalyptisches Welttheater, gewaschen mit allen Wassern musikalischen Raffinements, rasend virtuos, grell und grotesk wie ein Wimmelbild von Breughel oder Bosch. Eine Weltuntergangsoper aus dem Jahr 1978, bei der am Ende noch der Weltuntergang ausfällt. War alles nur ein Albtraum? – Kent Nagano dirigiert die Münchener Erstaufführung eines der großen Werke des Musiktheaters des 20. Jahrhunderts. Autor und Sprecher: Holger Noltze Betreuung: Olaf Roth

Inspiriert ist die Geschichte von den wuselnden Renaissance-Gemälden Pieter Breughels: es treiben sich allerhand fantastische Figuren und Klänge herum. Ligeti hat nicht gespart mit provokanten und spektakulären Szenen: Von einem Besäufnis über eine Sadomaso-Szene bis hin zu einem fatalen Komenteneinschlag - alles hat Platz in seiner einzigen Oper. Auch musikalisch tobte sich der ungarische Komponist aus, lässt die Protagonisten halsbrecherische Koloraturen singen, das Orchester in seinen typischen Klangschichtungen flirren und er setzt ausserdem diverse Spezialinstrumente ein wie Kuckuckspfeife, Entengequake, ein Regal oder ein elektrisches Klavier. Unter dieser schillernden Oberfläche liegen aber auch tiefere Schichten, wie sich im Gespräch mit dem Dirigenten Baldur Brönnimann zeigt.... Erstausstrahlung: 27.02.2019

Wolfgang Marx's I Don't Belong Anywhere: Gyorgy Ligeti At 100 (Brepols Publishers, 2022) commemorates the centenary of Gyorgy Ligeti's birth. The volume consists of twelve contributions that consists of new investigations of many aspects of Legeti's career. 2023 marks the centenary of Ligeti's birth, an appropriate moment to take stock of the relevance this composer has in the contemporary world, to assess where he "belongs" today and how our views of his uvre and our understanding of his position in musical and cultural history have evolved. What do Ligeti and his music have to say to us in our post-postmodernist age? Why do his works still fascinate us so much? This book offers new readings of core compositions such as "Aventures", "Lontano", "Le Grand Macabre", the "Holderlin Fantasies" and "Galamb borong". It also reassesses the context and reception of Ligeti's works, including the influence of Romanian music (not least in his childhood), musical life in Hungary between 1945 and 1956, the ways in which his thinking was influenced by his experience of different soundscapes, yet also the surprisingly widespread use of his music in film and TV (beyond the usual suspect). Finally it presents new sources discovered or made available only recently: letters exchanged between Ligeti and Aliute Mecys in 1972, the correspondence between the composer and his publisher Schott, and an extended BBC interview from 1997.

Sverige har upplevt koloratursopraner som tagit delar av världen med storm. Jenny Lind och Kristina Nilsson är två av de uppburna celebriteter vi höjer mot skyarna i veckans avsnitt. Det svenska musikundret blommade redan vid 1800-talets mitt, när Jenny Lind nådde en världspublik med sin stämma, vilket senare även gällde Kristina Nilsson. Det är två av de svenska koloratursopraner som skrivit in sig historien, både i Sverige och internationellt. Om detta talar vi i veckans avsnitt med sopranen Britt Marie Aruhn. Hon debuterade på Kungliga Teatern i mitten av 1970-talet och blev snart en av Operans aktade artister som sjungit närmare fyrtio av de största huvudrollerna. Hon uruppförde György Ligetis opera Le Grand Macabre och sjöng Första damen i Ingmar Bergmans legendariska uppsättning av Trollflöjten. Hennes koloraturer sträckte sig upp till trestrukna G och hennes stämma har hörts på prestigefulla scener som bland annat Covent Garden, La Scala, Wiener Staatsoper och Parisoperan.
Gerüchte von einer Porno-Oper machten die Runde. Aber in Wahrheit ist Ligetis "La Grand Macabre" eine Cartoon- oder Comic-Oper. Autor: Frank Halbach
