Inhalt: |
Doktor Faust was left incomplete at the time of Busoni's death. lntended as his masterpiece, the opera's genesis was complex and long. Based on Goethe's tragic play, the story of Faust's pact with the deviI is weII known but the opera's structure represents Busoni's unique conception, cast in two ProIogues, a beautiful orchestral lntermezzo and three scenes. ExpIoring ideas of rationality and metaphysical doubt as well as the concepts of artifice and pretence inherent in operatic performance, the result is one of the most creative and unsettIing of Busoni's works. |
