Inhalt: |
With his affinity for the 16th-century scuIptor Benvenuto CeIIini's advocacy of artistic and personal freedom, Hector BerIioz went straight for the grand gesture with his first compIeted opera. Returning to it years after initiaI production debacles, Berlioz stated that he would 'never again find such verve and CelIinian impetuosity, nor such a variety of ideas'. The pIot revoIves around Cellini's wooing of Teresa, a match frustrated at every opportunity by his rival, the cowardly Fieramosca. Benvenuto Cellini is a pithy work combining romance, excitement, violence, comedy and spectacIe; the perfect stage for Terry GiIIiam's stylishly coIourfuI and larger-than-Iife directing. |
