Am Tag seiner Hochzeit erhält der Postkutscher Chapelou ein unschlagbares Angebot: Der Intendant der Royalen Oper will ihn für die »kleinen Belustigungen« des französischen Königs abwerben … Wie reagiert Chapelous frischgebackene Ehefrau Madeleine? Winkt dem Postillion in Paris tatsächlich die große Gesangskarriere? Und werden sich die Brautleute jemals wiedersehen?

Adolphe Adams spritzige Opéra comique avancierte bereits kurz nach ihrer erfolgreichen Pariser Uraufführung 1836 zum internationalen Kassenschlager: Man pfiff die eingängigen Melodien auf den Straßen der europäischen Hauptstädte und erzählte sich die Pointen der gesprochenen Dialoge in den Schenken. Sogar Richard Wagner summte hin und wieder das berühmte »Postillion-Lied« mit dem spektakulären hohen D vor sich hin, wenn er nachts nicht schlafen konnte. Die Partitur des heute weitgehend unbekannten Meisterwerks der musikalischen Komödie wartet nicht nur mit hohen Spitzentönen und anspruchsvollen Koloraturen, sondern auch mit geschickt verflochtenen Ensemble- und Chornummern auf.

Hans Walter Richter und Kaspar Glarner versetzen das charmante Gute-Laune-Stück in jene spätbarocke Theaterwelt, die das Libretto zitiert, und lassen dessen zeitlosen Humor und insbesondere die theaterparodistischen Seitenhiebe mit viel Liebe zum Detail lebendig werden.

Deutsch

Coachman Chapelou gets an offer he can’t refuse, on his wedding day: The intendant of the Royal Opera wants to sign him up for the French King’s »smaller scale entertainments« … How will Chapelou’s newly wedded wife Madeleine react? Does a great singing career beckon the coachman in Paris? Will the bride and groom ever meet again?

Adolphe Adam’s sparkling Opéra comique was an international box office hit after its world premiere in Paris in 1836: People whistled the catchy tunes along streets in European capitals and quoted punchlines from the dialogues in taverns. Even Richard Wagner sometimes hummed the well-known »Postillion song«, with its spectacular high D, when he couldn’t sleep at night. The score of this all but forgotten, masterful comedy, reveals cleverly crafted ensemble and chorus numbers in addition to fiendishly high notes and coloratura.

Hans Walter Richter and Kaspar Glarner set this charming, heart-warming piece in a late baroque world of theatre, quoted in the libretto, allowing its timeless humour and wonderful theatrical parodied sidekicks come to life with much love and attention to detail.
