Med en sjælden kunstnerisk spændvidde og en unik udstråling på scenen har Danielle de Niese taget operaverdenen med storm. Nu optræder hun med DR Symfoniorkestret i to af operalitteraturens mest markante kvindeskikkelser; dronning Dido i Purcells tragiske barokopera og Anna i Weills ‘De syv dødssynder’.

Her er en unik mulighed for at opleve stjernesopranen Danielle de Niese i en skildring af kvindefigurer, der er drevet til deres yderste grænser. I Purcells tragiske barokopera må dronning Dido dø for sin kærlighed til Æneas. I Weills burleske, kabaret-inspirerede satire må to søstre ofre alle deres principper for at komme frem i verden.

Dido er den ædle dronning, der ofrer sit liv for kærligheden. Hun elsker den smukke helt Æneas, der er flygtet fra grækernes ødelæggelse af Troja. En ond troldkvinde sætter en stopper for kærligheden og sender ham videre til Italien og det nye imperium, som han er udpeget til at grundlægge. Dido kan ikke leve uden sin Æneas, og i dødsøjeblikket synger hun de udødelige ord: "Remember me, but ah! forget my fate."

"Vi er ikke rigtig to mennesker, bare en" synger søstrene Anna og Anna i Brecht og Weills De syv dødssynder. Hos Anna mødes pragmatisme og idealisme, fornuft og følelser, sang og dans. De to søstre begiver sig ud på en rejse for at tjene til livets ophold, og hjemme venter en stadigt mere utålmodig familie. Det viser sig hurtigt, at principper og moral ikke er noget, man kan holde højt i en korrupt og kapitalistisk verden.

dansk

She has taken the opera world by storm. With rare artistic range and unique on-stage charisma, soprano Danielle de Niese performs for the first time with The Danish National Symphony Orchestra, appearing as two of the most remarkable female characters in the operatic literature. She is Dido in Purcell's baroque tragedy and is sisters Anna and Anna in Weill's sharp, cabaret-inspired satire, still so resonant in our own time.

Dido is a noble queen, sacrificing her life for her beloved. She loves the beautiful Aeneas, a hero who has fled the destruction of Troy. Facing her own death, unable to live without him, Dido sings the immortal words: "Remember me, but ah! forget my fate".

Sisters Anna and Anna sing "We are not really two people, just one" in The Seven Deadly Sins by Brecht and Weill. In Anna’s melodies, pragmatism meets idealism, reason meets emotion, song meets dance. This is a brilliant role for Danielle de Niese, who "highlights what she sings with her entire body" (Politiken).
