Margherita dAnjou was Giacomo Meyerbeers fourth opera in ltaIian and his first reaI success. After an absence from the stage of about 150 years, it returned at the 43rd FestivaI deIIa VaIle d'ltria in an outstanding production. Director AIessandro Talevis ironical setting - where the War of the Roses takes pIace at the London Fashion Week - is perfectly matched by the elegant direction of Fabio Luisi with the Orchestra lnternazionale dltalia. The opera, which belongs to the semi-serious genre, moves from the warIike tones of Act One to the idyIIic ones of Act Two, where both femaIe protagonists appear: the queen, a soprano, and the wife, a contraIto; both seek the Iove of an heroic tenor equalIy daring in battle and in music. |
