Giuseppe Verdi: Ernani

dall' opera Ernani-En 1844 Giuseppe Verdi compose Ernani>/I> son cinquième opéra basé sur la pièce de Victor Hugo. Le succès d?Ernani comme celui de Nabucco et des Lombards à la première croisade (I Lombardi alla prima crociata) repose sur deux éléments particuliers : l?idée mélodique et l?idée patriotique. Le choix de l?idée mélodique est d?une grande importance. Elle est le vecteur qui sert à toucher et à éveiller l?intérêt du public. L?idée patriotique nourrit l?enthousiasme et les émotions. Environ dix ans plus tard Verdi reprendra une histoire similaire à celle du personnage d?Ernani un noble banni de la cour à travers le personnage de Manrique dans LeTrouvère. Dans le Prélude du premier acte de l?opéra Ernani Verdi réussit en trois minutes seulement à nous offrir un superbe condensé des éléments principaux qui jalonnent le drame. On distingue très clairement les thèmes de l?amour de la promesse et de la mort.

Vocal Score / Softcover. Par VERDI GIUSEPPE. In a letter of 2 January 1851, Verdi suggested for the first time Antonio Garcia Gutierrez play El Trovador as a possible subject for his new Opera: 'It seems to me very beautiful, imaginative, and full of strong situations'. Once he had settled on the subject, the composer immediately began looking for a theater in which to produce the Opera and after protracted negotiations he decided to stage Il Trovatore in Rome. The premiere occurred on 19 January 1853 at the Teatro Apollo and was an enormous success. The appreciation of the new work increased from performance to performance. The third performance was the last the composer was contractuallyobliged to attend: at the end of the evening the audience presented Verdi with two laurel wreaths. Verdi 's account of the performances, contained in a letter to his friend Clarina Maffei, was eloquent: 'They say that this Opera is too sad and that there are too many deaths. But ultimetley in life everything is death! What exists?. . . ' Notwithstanding Verdi 's pessimism, Il Trovatore circulated rapidly. In fact, no other Opera of Verdi except 'Ernani' enjoyed such instant and widespread success./ Répertoire / Chant et Piano
