 | Description: | After his Neapolitan training, Gaspare Spontini settled in Paris for a few years, where he was nominated â??compositeur particulier de la chambreâ? of Empress Josephine, Napoleonâ??s wife. It was indeed Napoleon who commissioned Spontini to write the opera Fernand Cortez, ou La conquête du Mexique in 1808 and attended the premiere on 28 November 1809.
The choice of this subject is linked to the initial phase of the war against Spain, and departs not only from the actual historic events of 1519 but also from the 18th-century works on the same subject. In the comparison between Spaniards and Mexicans, virtue, valour, tolerance and enlightenment are all qualities of the invaders. The strongly idealised gure of Cortez, presented as a brave, wise and merciful general, predestined to victory, was to be an image of Napoleon. His ght against Spanish â??obscurantismâ? was Cortezâ??s ght against the cruelty, superstition and dark power intrigues of the Aztec (Mexican) sacerdotal class. Cortez frees the Mexicans from their â??evil godâ?, and only the High Priest refuses his clemency.
Like in a pièce à sauvetage, at the last moment Montezumaâ??s niece, Amazily, who had o ered her life in exchange of that of her beloved Cortezâ??s brother Alvar, is rescued (from being sacri ced by the High Priest to appease the godsâ?? wrath for betraying the Mexican cause). The Mexican chief Télasco, Amazilyâ??s brother, promotes the cessation of hostilities: the marriage between Cortez and Amazily sanctions the peace between two peoples. - ORCHESTRA DEL MAGGIO MUSICALE FIORENTINOAfter his Neapolitan training Gaspare Spontini settled in Paris for a few years, where he was nominated "compositeur particulier de la chambre" of Empress Josephine, Napoleon's wife. It was indeed Napoleon who, in 1808, commissioned him the opera, Fernand Cortez, ou La conquete du Mexique, of which he attended the 28th November 1809 premiere. The strongly idealized figure of Cortez, presented as a brave, wise and merciful general, predestined to victory, was to be an image of Napoleon. His fight against Spanish "obscurantism" was Cortez's fight against the cruelty, superstition and dark power intrigues of the Aztec sacerdotal class. Cortez frees the Mexicans from their "evil god", and only the High Priest refuses his clemency. Like in a piece a sauvetage, at the last moment Montezuma's niece, Amazily, who had offered her life in exchange of that of her beloved Cortez's brother Alvar, is rescued. The Mexican chief Telasco promotes the cessation of hostilities: the marriage between Cortez and Amazily sanctions the peace between two peoples. In Spain, the French troops met a very different fate than Cortez's men in the happy ending of Spontini's opera and it has been suggested that the disastrous outcome of the Spanish campaign was responsible for the limited number of performances run by Fernand Cortez in Paris between the end of 1809 and January 1812. This production is a world premiere recording of the first modern times performance of the original 1809 version. It was recorded in October 2019, exactly 500 years after Cortez's first arrival in Mexico. Director Cecilia Ligorio drew inspiration from a murales painted by Orozco inside a building in Mexico city, where Cortez is depicted in a shiny, silver armor and Malinche - the historical figure who inspired the character of Amazily - wears no clothes and is painted with the color of Earth. |  | Actors: |
