  • L'opera a Portata Di Mano Aida
    Bologna, lunedì 21 gennaio 2008 COMUNICATO STAMPA L’OPERA A PORTATA DI MANO La FONDAZIONE DEL MONTE di BOLOGNA E RAVENNA PRESENTA AIDA Di come la Guerra seppellisce l’Al’Amoremore di Gabriele Duma e Andrea Stanisci Si apre il 23 gennaio sera nel teatro di Marzabotto la tournèe dell’opera lirica AIDA , proposta attraverso una rivisitazione che permette a tutti coloro che per i più diversi motivi (luogo di abitazione, tempo, disponibilità economica, difficoltà di prenotazione, limitato periodo di programmazione…), pur desiderandolo, non riescono a frequentare le stagioni liriche. L’AIDA, infatti, verrà rappresentata nei teatri di Marzabotto, Casalecchio, San Giovanni in Persiceto, Budrio, Pieve di Cento. Il ciclo di rappresentazioni dell’AIDA è realizzato con il contributo della Fondazione del Monte di Bologna e Ravenna, la collaborazione della Associazione Eptagon Bonaventura ed il sostegno dell’Assessorato alla Cultura del comune di Porretta Terme e degli altri comuni promotori della Rassegna Crinali, che ha messo d’accordo i teatri di Marzabotto, Casalecchio, San Giovanni in Persiceto, Budrio, Pieve di Cento. Si tratta di un’operazione culturale che promuove un modello di spettacolo, come quello dell’opera lirica, che per molti fattori tende ad essere poco raggiungibile - tanto concettualmente quanto logisticamente ed economicamente - sia dal pubblico che dai teatri stessi: con questa rivisitazione, ridotta ad un ora e un quarto, nella quale si colgono i nuclei centrali dell’AIDA viene impiegata una compagnia di alto livello ma molto ridimensionata rispetto agli sfarzi che di solito impone l’opera verdiana, viene proposto un modello, per così dire, “sostenibile” per il pubblico e per gli stessi teatri (non sempre in grado di mettere in scena un’opera lirica per gli alti costi di rappresentazione e di allestimento).

È estate e c’è festa nella casa di Violetta Valéry, una famosa mondana: è un modo per soffocare l’angoscia che la tormenta, perché ella sa che la sua salute è gravemente minata. Un nobile, Gastone, presenta alla padrona di casa il suo amico Alfredo, che l’ammira sinceramente. L’attenzione che Violetta dimostra per la nuova conoscenza non sfugge a Douphol, il suo amante abituale. Mentre Violetta e Alfredo danzano, il giovane le dichiara tutto il suo amore e Violetta gli regala un fiore, una camelia: rivedrà Alfredo solo quando sarà appassita. Alla fine della festa, Violetta deve ammettere di essersi innamorata davvero, per la prima volta.
