Opéra comique in five acts from 1884 Libretto by Henri Meilhac (1830–1897) and Philippe Gille (1831–1901) based on the novel by Abbé Antoine François Prévost d'Exiles (1697–1763) L'Histoire du chevalier des Grieux et de Manon Lescaut from in 1731 Musical staging by Bruno Ferrandis Directed by Jiří Nekvasil The end of the 19th century represented a search for a balance between old and new perspectives for French opera. It had to react to the expressions of realism appearing in the novels of Gustave Flaubert or Émile Zola or in the paintings of Gustave Courbet, to Wagner's innovations in music-dramatic art and, last but not least, to the French operatic ideal represented by Giacomo Meyerbeer's great French opera. The theme, which inspired both Vítězslav Nezval and Giacomo Puccini, was transformed even earlier by Jules Massenet into a masterpiece of French lyric opera. The music of his most famous opus is sophisticated, and despite the occasional sentimentality, it stands out for its melodic invention, thanks to which the composer plastically depicts the characters of the individual characters. While in the first half of the 19th century, French opera favored male heroes, by the end of it, women were beginning to predominate in the leading roles. Manon is also proof of this tendency. Massenet's feeling for melodic singing was once called a celebration of the soprano. We present it in the original French with Czech and English subtitles. Premieres on April 28 and 30, 2022 at the Antonín Dvořák Theatre by the end of it, women are starting to predominate in the main roles. Manon is also proof of this tendency.

MANON – Moravian-Silesian National Theater (preview video)

The most famous opera version of the story of the fated but unfulfilled love between Manon and the Chevalier des Grieux. In spite of adversities and mishaps, the bond of their love remains strong.

When Jules Massenet began to write his opera Manon, another opera with the same theme, composed by D. F. E. Auber, was being successfully performed. It tells the story of the love and break-up of Manon Lescaut and the Chevalier des Grieuxe and their becoming close again. The libretto was written by Henri Meilhac and Philippe Gille and based on the Abbé Prévost’s 1731 novel. Czech theatre-goers know the beautiful 1940 play in verse by Vítězslav Nezval. After Massenet, the same story was used by Giacomo Puccini; however, he did not manage to push Massenet’s Manon from the world's stages. Massenet’s opera has everything that a good opera needs: a high quality libretto and captivating music, whose lyricism, drama, effective vocal parts and rich instrumentation draw listeners’ attention.

English

Nejslavnější operní zpracování příběhu osudové a přece nenaplněné lásky mezi Manon a rytířem Des Grieux. I přes nepřízeň osudu a nelehké životní peripetie je pouto lásky stále silné.

Když Jules Massenet začal psát svou operu Manon, na jevištích se s úspěchem hrála opera na stejný námět D. F. E. Aubera. Libreto vytvořili Henri Meilhac a Philippe Gille podle románu Abbé Prévosta z roku 1731. Čeští divadelníci znají půvabné veršované zpracování námětu Vítězslavem Nezvalem z roku 1940. I po Massenetovi sáhl po stejném námětu Giacomo Puccini, kterému se ovšem Massenetovu Manon nepodařilo vytlačit ze světových jevišť. Massenetova opera má vše, co správná opera potřebuje: kvalitní libreto a strhující hudbu, která zaujme svým lyrismem i dramatičností, efektními pěveckými party i bohatou instrumentací. Do Plzně se opera vrací téměř po půl století.

čeština

Die berühmteste Opernbearbeitung der Geschichte der schicksalhaften und dennoch unerfüllten Liebe zwischen Manon und dem Chevalier Des Grieux. Trotz der Ungunst des Schicksals und der nicht leichten Wendepunkte im Leben ist das Band der Liebe immer noch stark.

Als Jules Massenet begann, seine Oper Manon zu schreiben, feierte auf den Bühnen die Oper gleichen Sujets von Daniel-François-Esprit Auber große Erfolge. Die Oper schildert die Geschichte der Liebe, der Trennung und der erneuten Annäherung der Manon Lescaut und des Chevaliers Des Grieux. Das Libretto schufen Henri Meilhac und Philippe Gille nach dem Roman Histoire du Chevalier Des Grieux et de Manon Lescaut (1731 ) des Abbé Prévost. Die tschechischen Theaterliebhaber kennen die reizvolle, von Vítězslav Nezval in Verse gefasste Bearbeitung des Sujets aus dem Jahre 1940. Nach Massenet griff nach der gleichen Vorlage auch Giacomo Puccini (1858-1924), dem es jedoch nicht gelang, Massenets Manon von den Weltbühnen zu verdrängen. Massenets Oper besitzt alles, was eine richtige Oper braucht: ein sehr gutes Libretto und eine mitreißende Musik, die durch ihren Lyrismus sowie ihre Dramatik, durch ihre effektiven
