Il trovatore Verdi

“Il trovatore” captures the heart of anyone who loves a good story, great melodies, fantastic voices and big choruses. The “Anvil Chorus,” Azucena’s “Stride la vampa” and Manrico’s stirring call to arms “Di quella pira” are just a few of the fabulous highlights that the opera offers.

Verdi’s passionate melodrama thrills with swift action, intense pathos, and numerous moments of dazzling singing. “Il trovatore” is the second of the great trio of mature, middle-period Verdi masterpieces, which cemented Verdi’s reputation as the greatest Italian composer of his time. Preceded by “Rigoletto” (1851) and followed by “La traviata” (1853), this opera demonstrated Verdi’s ability to find the perfect melody to express the deepest emotions of his characters desperate for love, and emotionally strapped by circumstance.

In “Il trovatore”, the terrible secrets of a gruesome past echo through the generations. When two brothers unwittingly fall in love with the same woman, they unleash a firestorm of fatal reckoning.

Count Luna and Manrico are fighting on opposite sides of Spanish civil war. At the same time, they rival for Leonora, who however loves Manrico. A terrible past casts a shadow on them: Manricos alleged mother, the gypsy Azucena, had thrown what she thought to be Lunas brother into a fire. In reality she had, bewildered, killed her own baby, and risen Lunas brother in her own child’s place, under the name of Manrico. When Manrico is arrested and sentenced to death, Leonora offers her life to save him. Count Luna learns that she has poisoned herself to escape her fate to live on his side, and orders Manrico to be executed. Desperate, Azucena tells him, that he had killed his own brother, whom she had risen unawares…

English

„Trubaduur“ paelub igaüht, kes armastab head lugu, suurepäraseid meloodiaid, säravaid lauljaid ja võimsaid koore. „Mustlaste koor“, Azucena „Stride la vampa“ ja Manrico võidukas kutse relvadele „Di quella pira“ on vaid mõned näited vaimustavatest muusikalistest hetkedest, mida see ooper pakub.

Verdi kirglik melodraama võlub kiirelt areneva tegevustiku, intensiivsete emotsioonide ja särava vokaalse tulevärgiga. „Trubaduur“ on Verdi hiilgava ooperikolmiku teine teos, mis kinnitas tema positsiooni ühe mõjukama Itaalia heliloojana. „Trubaduurile“ eelnes „Rigoletto“ (1851) ja järgnes „La traviata“ (1853). „Trubaduur“ on ilmekas näide Verdi andest leida armastuse järele janunevate, kuid olukorrast kammitsetud tegelaste sügavate tunnete väljendamiseks kauneid meloodiaid.

„Trubaduuris“ ei anna põlvkondade tagused kohutavad saladused inimestele asu. Kui kaks venda armuvad kogemata ühte ja samasse neidu, algab arveteklaarimise halastamatu torm.

Krahv di Luna ja Manrico võitlevad Hispaania kodusõjas vastasleerides. Nad on mõlemad armunud Leonorasse, kes armastab Manricot. Mineviku hirmutavad saladused heidavad nende saatustele varju. Nimelt on mustlanna Azucena aastaid tagasi ja meeltesegaduses, arvates et viskab tulle di Luna imikust venna, heitnud tulle oma poja ning kasvatanud Manrico üles kui enda oma. Kui Manrico vastaspoolele vangi satub ja surma mõistetakse, pakub Leonora mehe elu eest ennast. Krahv di Luna on vahetusega nõus, kuid teada saades, et naine on vahetult enne nende kohtumist mürki võtnud, laseb Manrico hukata. Meeleheitel Azucena teatab krahvile, et too on tapnud oma venna …
