just in these minutes the #berlin state opera house (staatsoperberlin) re-opens their gates after seven years of intense reconstruction at their original venue unter den linden in berlin-mitte. we got the chance to see and photograph the new opera hall last sunday on an empty meet with visit_berlin.
very interesting is the modern ceiling construction by #knippershelbig, which extends the roof height and makes the acoustics even better.
if you check the hashtag #visit_berlin_instameet you'll find more impressions of sunday's short meetup.

La Traviata
Giuseppe Verdi
staatsoperberlin

Taking Berlin by storm…

Today’s show started late as the baritone was stuck in traffic due to the ongoing demonstrations against right wing parties.
An important cause and worth the wait in any case.

It is already the third time for me to see this production. I was eager to see Jenufa, so I booked Daphne and Traviata as well for this weekend in Berlin.

The staging is simple, yet timeless and I particularly love the big broken mirror in which Violetta can see her upcoming fate. The skull she sees in the mirror is portrayed by dancers in white outfits. They arrange their bodies to form a skull. There’s also the sands of time that are constantly running.

A great cast consisting of:

Paolo Fanale as Alfredo and amartuvshinenkhbat as Giorgio Germont.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

pretty_yende_official was again (having seen her several times in Vienna’s production) stunning as Traviata. Great acting combined with her uniquely beautiful voice. Breathtaking coloratura and goosebump moments aplenty. Standing ovations obviously.
Bravissima! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

Kudos to the talented ensemble members who made this cast complete.

Beautifully conducted by speranzascappucci who I haven’t seen in a while. Hopefully she’ll be back in Vienna soon.

Bravi tutti!

After the show I once again did a guided backstage tour. Highly recommended.

A great way to end this opera filled weekend.

🔟Photos‼️
Zugegeben: ein wenig muss ich auch immer an das 50er Jahre Schleiflack-Schlafzimmer meiner Omma (vornehm😉🤣) denken, wenn ich in der Berliner Staatsoper Unter den Linden bin.

Wie viele meiner geneigten Leser sicherlich wissen, ist all das was auf diesen Fotos zu sehen ist keinesfalls „originales“ friderizianisches Rokoko, aber vielleicht „echtes“, irgendwie? Denn „echt“ und „original“ ist nämlich nicht dasselbe, wie man spätestens seit dem legendären Markenrechtsstreit um die originalen (bzw. echten) Mozartkugeln weiß.

1743 als erster freistehender, repräsentativer Theaterbau Europas(!) eröffnet, war es die wohl mit Abstand visionärste kulturpolitische Großtat König Friedrichs II. von Preußen. Und damals war es natürlich -ganz nach Fritzens Geschmack- ein Rokokotheater.

Nun erlebte dieser Bau aber 200 aufregende Theaterjahre: es wurde angebaut und umgebaut, es wurde zerstört und wiederaufgebaut und wieder zerstört. Das was im zweiten Weltkrieg verloren ging, hatte im Inneren nichts mehr mit dem Opernhaus des 18. Jh. zu tun.

Nun ereignete sich in der bekanntlich wenig royalistisch gesinnten DDR der 1950er Jahre etwas bemerkenswertes: das Haus wurde im Stile des friderizianischen Rokoko wieder aufgebaut. Entstanden ist ein Phantasiebauwerk aus Versatzstücken vieler unverwechselbar echter(!) friderizianischer Dekorationsmotive auf hohem kunsthandwerklichen Niveau. Man muss das nicht mögen, aber es ist ein einzigartiges Zeitzeugnis.

Vor einigen Jahren gab es den Beschluss all das abzureißen und durch einen weitgehenden Neubau im Inneren des Hauses zu ersetzen: „Kann doch weg, ist doch DDR, alles Kitsch“, waren noch die freundlicheren Worte. Nach Protesten kam es anders; in einer groß angelegten Sanierung wurde schließlich so viel 50er Jahre „Oma-Schlafzimmer-Ausstattung“ 😉erhalten wie möglich. Wie gefällt euch das Ergebnis und was sagt ihr zu diesem konservativen Gestaltungs-Ansatz der 1950er Jahre? Schreibt es gern in die Kommentare!

Happy World Opera Day 2023

What opera means to me…
It’s more than the music. It’s about the live experience which results in a life experience. It’s about the human voice, the common journey of the people on, in front of and behind the stage, about the sound that brings out emotions inside us.
No performance is the same.

This year has been jam packed with fantastic operas and I’m very grateful to be able to see one at the snap of a finger.

My beloved wienerstaatsoper almost feels like a second home at times.

Another opera house I like to call home is staatsoperberlin as it’s beautiful and also offers highest quality performances.

Two new houses I visited in early 2023 were:

operzuerich where I got to see La Traviata and a rare baroque opera, Eliogabalo.

staatsoperhamburg was also a nice house with interesting productions (Cosí/Tosca). However their photography policy should be revised. Hamburg also offers a great alternative for concert versions of operas at elbphilharmonie where I had the chance to see jakub.jozef.orlinski in Tolomeo in May.

Despite the great bayerischestaatsoper at the Nationaltheater, where I’ve seen some outstanding operas, I discovered Prinzregententheater this summer for an amazing version of Semele, again with Orlinski and another favourite spikelmyers

In June I finally managed to go back to London for the first time since 2019. A lot has changed since then (Brexit), but the royaloperahouse was amazing as ever.

Summer is for festivals and bregenzerfestspiele and salzburgerfestspiele always serve great and unusual performances. I loved Madame Butterfly (with and without rain) and Nozze/Troyens were outstanding, too.

Last but not least, the best curtain call goes to: Semele 🏆
