Description

[Machine Translation] Prince Aeneas was born to the king of Troia and the goddess Aphrodite. After his defeat in the Trojan War, he drifted to Carthage on the coast of North Africa. Here he met Queen Didone and fell in love with her, but eventually abandoned her in order to rebuild Troyes, and after seven years of wandering, arrived in Italy, where he married a princess. He married a princess there and laid the foundations of the Roman Empire. Didone, on the other hand, in an act of grief, threw herself into the flames. Metastasio's libretto to this story has been set to music by over 100 composers, including Galuppi, Hasse, Paisiello, and others, and was very popular at the time. Vinci's "The Abandoned Didone," composed for the Teatrodelle Dame in Rome, premiered to great acclaim during the 1726 Carnival season and marked the beginning of a fruitful collaboration between Vinci and Metastasio, who over the next four years produced more than five scripts for Vinci. Over the next four years, Metastasio produced more than five scripts for Vinci. This video is the world's first live recording of Vinci's "Abandoned Didone" with baroque singing specialists. The film features not only the skillful singing of Mameli and other singers who have visited Japan before, but also the modern and stylish equipment and costumes.

Description in Japanese

ヴィンチ: 歌劇「捨てられたディドーネ」 / クラシックオムニバス

トロイア王と女神アフロディーテの間に生まれた王子エネーア。トロイア戦争での敗北をきっかけに、北アフリカ沿岸のカルタゴに漂着する。ここで女王ディドーネと出会い相思相愛になるが、結局はトロイア再建のため、ディドーネを捨て、7年間の放浪の末イタリアにたどり着き、ここの王女と結婚。ローマ帝国の礎を創り上げた。一方のディドーネは悲しみの果てに、燃え盛る炎に身を投げる。この物語によるメタスタージオの台本には、ガルッピやハッセ、パイジェッロをはじめとした100人もの作曲家が曲を付けており、当時の人気の高さが目に見えるよう。ヴィンチの「捨てられたディドーネ」は、ローマの「TeatrodelleDame」のために作曲、1726年謝肉祭シーズンに初演されて大好評を得るとともに、ヴィンチとメタスタージオとの実りある協力の始まりの作品にもなり、以降の4年間で、メタスタージオはヴィンチのための5つ以上の台本を制作したほど。この映像は、バロック歌手のスペシャリストを招いたヴィンチ「捨てられたディドーネ」の世界初となるライヴ・レコーディング。来日経験もあるマメリをはじめとした歌手たちの技巧を凝らした歌もさることながら、近代的でスタイリッシュな装置、衣装にも注目。
