description
Iulia Maria Dan, Soprano • Dshamilja Kaiser, Mezzo-soprano • Pavel Černoch and Paul Schweinester, Tenors• Claudio Sgura, Baritone • Eduard Tsanga, Bass • Prague Philharmonic Choir • First performed in 1865, Amleto (‘Hamlet’) represented a radical new development in Italian opera, the nuovo melodramma. Composer Franco Faccio and his librettist Arrigo Boito sought a greater degree of musical unity in staged productions and a more equal relationship between text and music. In Hamlet, a play that many then considered un-operatic, they found the perfect medium through which to explore the work’s philosophical and dramatic power – not least the great set-piece scenes: Amleto’s soliloquy ‘Essere o non essere!’ (‘To be or not to be’), Ofelia’s Mad Scene and the fight scenes – in a way that strikingly prefigures the verismo operas yet to come.
