Introduction One hour before the opera begins

Riccardo Broschi: «La Merope»
Dramma per musica, Libretto von Apostolo Zeno
First performance: Turin, Teatro Regio, 1732
New edition for the performance in Innsbuck: Giovanna Barbati, Alessandro De Marchi
Sung in Italian with German surtitles.

Farinelli’s lustre cast a long shadow on his brother, Riccardo Broschi. Even during his lifetime, he was only perceived as the composer who tailored his operas exclusively to his brother’s unique vocal talent. This perception of him has not changed to this day. Alessandro De Marchi now wants to prove it wrong with «Merope». In his view, Riccardo Broschi «was a master of Neapolitan opera, who composed beautiful operas and wrote impeccable arias for all voice types and parts». De Marchi will conduct the Innsbruck Festival Orchestra for the first time in «Merope». The newly established orchestra unites specialists in historically informed performance practice, many of whom have already played with other ensembles at the Festival. «Merope» promises to be a baroque feast for the eyes and ears, featuring not only magnificent arias but marches, choruses, fanfares and dances as well. As was customary at the time, each act contains several dance scenes, the music to which was provided by separate composers and orchestras. Director Sigrid T’Hooft, a specialist in historically informed performances, will create choreographies according to passed-down dance books.
