TRAILER | THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST Barry – Nouvel Opéra Fribourg

T. Bekbosunov & E. Ballard 'And this is what you call Bunburying?' – THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST

Si l’on est amateur de vérités pas toujours bonnes à dire mais merveilleusement exprimées, on n’ignore pas qu’entendre dire du mal des membres de sa famille est la seule chose qui permette de les supporter, que c’est une tâche rude que de ne rien faire ou que l’essence même d’une histoire d’amour est l’incertitude… Cela et tant d’autres traits d’esprits issus du chef d’œuvre d’Oscar Wilde : The Importance of Being Earnest. Cette comédie des fiançailles est aujourd’hui devenue un opéra grâce au compositeur Gerald Barry qui en tire un œuvre toute en quiproquos, en mélancolie et en dérision.

français

If you are a lover of truths that are not always good to say but wonderfully expressed, you know that hearing bad things about your family members is the only thing that allows you to bear them, that it is a tough task. than doing nothing or that the very essence of a love story is uncertainty… This and so many other witticisms from Oscar Wilde's masterpiece: The Importance of Being Earnest . This engagement comedy has now become an opera thanks to the composer Gerald Barry, who has created a work full of misunderstandings, melancholy and derision.

In seiner 1895 uraufgeführten Komödie attackiert Oscar Wilde geistreich und ironisch im Verwirrspiel um das Lieben und Werben der beiden Gentlemen Algernon und Jack die Oberschicht im viktorianischen England. Dieses hochlustige Stück ist dank des Komponisten Gerald Barry zur hochlustigen Oper geworden: ein Meisterwerk aus Missverständnissen, Melancholie und Spott.
