“鲜血”浇灌下的“爱”与“希望”——观上海歌剧院新制《图兰朵》

Of blood, love and hope——New production of Turandot by the Shanghai Opera House

古老恢宏的中国宫廷,残暴美艳的中国公主,神秘迷幻的东方世界,为爱舍命的猜谜人,敬畏与真爱并存的忠仆柳儿,滑稽戏剧的大臣三人组等人物形象架构出了普契尼歌剧《图兰朵》的"中国印象"并且丰富了戏剧的元素。歌剧中,一首八音盒奏出的来自中国民间小调《茉莉花》的旋律,拉近了这部西方歌剧与中国观众的距离。作为普契尼的绝笔之作,《图兰朵》这部西方歌剧披着东方异域的"神秘"外衣,讲述着《一千零一日》中这个来自古老波斯的民间故事,在西方歌剧的舞台上散发着夺目的光彩。

On February 18 and 19, 2022, the classic opera Turandot, produced by the Shanghai Opera House and led by SOH President Xu Zhong, graced the Shanghai Grand Theater stage. High-tech multimedia projections, along with lighting and stage design, added many levels to this simple yet poetic production.
