“Il Trovatore” kurz und bündig: neue Folge der ZDFkultur-Reihe “Oper für Ungeduldige” mit Moritz Eggert
Eine Zigeunerin hat angeblich den Bruder eines Grafen verzaubert und wird dafür hingerichtet. Ihre Tochter entführt den Bruder des Grafen, um ihn aus Rache zu ermorden, bringt aber aus Versehen ihren eigenen Sohn um. Mit diesen Verstrickungen ist man mittendrin in Verdis Oper “Il Trovatore”. Moritz Eggert fasst sie in der neuen Folge von “Oper für Ungeduldige” zusammen, die ab Mittwoch, 10. Juli 2019, unter zdfkultur.de abrufbar ist. Er entlarvt den vermeintlich so tragischen Stoff als Feuerwerk der Komik und bringt den “Troubadour” in nur zweieinhalb Minuten auf den Punkt.
“Il Trovatore” in a nutshell: new episode of the ZDF cultural series “Opera for the impatient” with Moritz Eggert
A gypsy woman allegedly enchanted the brother of a count and is executed for it. Her daughter kidnaps the count’s brother to kill him in revenge, but accidentally kills her own son. With these entanglements one is right in the middle of Verdi’s opera “Il Trovatore”. Moritz Eggert summarizes them in the new episode of “Oper für Impgeduldige”, which is available on zdfkultur.de. He exposes the supposedly tragic material as a firework of comedy and sums up the “Troubadour” in just two and a half minutes.
