Text: Thomas
Sauvage.
Inspired
by models from the
Commedia dell’Arte, the
plot is set in Seville
and presents the old
“Greybeard” Don
Belflor (a retired
bullfighter and
womanizer), his young
wife Coraline and her
lover Tracolin. In a
highly contemporary way,
this leads to a three-way
relationship of which
everyone approves. The
‘accord parfait’ is a
perfect triad consisting
of exactly three notes.
It is noticeable that the
libretti of the Second
Republic were no longer
subject to censor.
Two arias were
planned for each role. As
a flautist, Tracolin also
knows how to evoke famous
melodies from the French
opera repertoire in his
advances. The
centrepieces are the two
trios.
One of
these, the variation
number “Ah! vous
dirai-je, maman”, is
the jewel of the opera:
here, vocal virtuosity
and the comedy of the
situation are combined
with brilliant ease.
