| dbo:abstract |
Blond Eckbert is an opera by Scottish composer Judith Weir. The composer wrote the English-language libretto herself, basing it on the cryptic supernatural short story Der blonde Eckbert by the German Romantic writer Ludwig Tieck. Weir completed the original two-act version of the opera in 1993, making Blond Eckbert her third full-length work in the genre. Like its predecessors, it was received well by the critics. She later produced a one act "pocket" version of the work. This uses chamber forces rather than the full orchestra of the two act version and omits the chorus. The pocket version receives frequent performances, especially in Germany and Austria, while the full version is available in a recording featuring the original cast. (en) Blond Eckbert è un'opera lirica della compositrice scozzese Judith Weir. La compositrice scrisse ella stessa il libretto in inglese, traendo spunto per esso dalla breve criptica storia soprannaturale Der Blonde Eckbert dello scrittore romantico tedesco Ludwig Tieck. La Weir completò la versione originale in due atti dell'opera nel 1993, compiendo con Blond Eckbert il suo terzo lavoro a lunghezza piena di questo genere. Come quelle che l'hanno precedetuta, è stata accolta favorevolmente dalla critica. Più tardi la musicista ha realizzato una versione "tascabile" in un solo atto del lavoro. Questa utilizza strumenti da camera invece dell'orchestra piena della versione in due atti e non prevede il coro. La versione breve viene rappresentata frequentemente, soprattutto in Germania e Austria, mentre la versione completa è disponibile in una registrazione che riproduce il cast originale. (it) |
