Hear Rachel Nicholls sing Leonore's Aria and talk about her role as Leonore in Beethoven's Fidelio at Bergen National Opera.

Fidelio is a political opera characterized by Beethoven's ardent humanism and commitment to the fundamental freedom of the individual. Leonore, a strong and iconic female figure, takes center stage in the opera. Her husband Florestan is imprisoned for his political beliefs. Disguised as a man, Leonore looks for a job in the prison. Here she must overcome physical obstacles and vicious opposition to lead Florestan back to freedom. The scene where the line of prisoners is led out into the light is one of the greatest moments in opera history.

English

Fidelio er en politisk opera preget av Beethovens glødende humanisme og engasjement for individets grunnleggende frihet. Leonore, en sterk og ikonisk kvinneskikkelse, står i sentrum i operaen. Ektemannen Florestan er fengslet for sin politiske overbevisning. Forkledd som mann søker Leonore seg jobb i fengselet. Her må hun overvinne fysiske hindringer og ondskapsfull motstand for å føre Florestan tilbake til friheten. Scenen hvor rekken av fanger føres ut i lyset er et av operahistoriens største øyeblikk.
