三个玛侬
歌剧史上有很多有趣的事情,这就是说很多作家的原作在经过历史的长河之后,早已被人遗忘,但却又在歌剧中复活。比如雨果的戏剧《国王寻乐》(即《弄臣》),是威尔第的歌剧使它被后人熟知,普希金的诗剧《鲁斯兰与柳德米拉》也是因为格林卡的歌剧使它成为俄罗斯音乐史上重要的民族主义歌剧。同样的例子还有很多,不胜枚举.
L'histoire du chevalier des Grieux et de Manon Lescaut by the Abbe Prevost was a classic of the 18th century. There are three operas based on this novel:Massenet's Manon,Puccini's Manon Lescaut and Hans Werner Henze's Boulevard Solitude. Bellini's Norma may be the most difficult opera in the repertory,but it is also the best vehicle for any star soprano.For a long time,Norma is just like a beautiful maiden waiting to get out in the world.As long as an appropriate soprano can claim this role,the success of Norma is at least halfway ensured.
