Le nozze di Figaro Mozart

Premiere of the production: 11 May 2017

Vyacheslav Starodubtsev’s Mozart. The Marriage of Figaro is brimming with oriental motifs, which are reflected too in the acting style. Working on one of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s most important operas, the director has taken inspiration from the chinoiserie aesthetic that was so fashionable in European art of the late 18th century. This is a sophisticated offshoot of rococo style, drawing on the artistic traditions of Medieval China. Porcelain, coloured silks, sliding screens, and elegant tea houses tucked away in the depths of the garden were adopted as part of the European aristocratic lifestyle. Director Vyacheslav Starodubtsev makes no secret of the fact that visual content is just as critical for an opera director as the music. Along with production designers Zhanna Usacheva and Pyotr Okunev, he has decided to set the opera in a stately home, where oriental fashion not only has a bearing on the interior design, but also on the way of life.

Премьера постановки: 11 мая 2017 года

Спектакль «Моцарт. Свадьба Фигаро» Вячеслава Стародубцева исполнен восточными мотивами, которые отразятся и в стиле актерского существования. В работе над постановкой одной из главных опер Вольфганга Амадея Моцарта режиссер вдохновлялся модной в европейском искусстве конца XVIII века стилистикой шинуазри. Это изысканное ответвление рококо, навеянное искусством средневекового Китая. Фарфор, многоцветные шелка, раздвижные ширмы, домики для чаепитий в тайных уголках сада стали частью домашнего уклада европейской аристократии. Постановщик спектакля Вячеслав Стародубцев не скрывает, что для оперного режиссера визуальные образы значат не меньше, чем музыка. Совместно с художниками-постановщиками Жанной Усачевой и Петром Окуневым он решает поместить персонажей оперы в обстановку богатого дома, где модное увлечение «китайскими штучками» влияет не только на интерьеры, но и на правила жизни.
