The premiere of Gioacchino Rossini's last Italian opera on June 19, 1825 in Paris was a special event in several respects: On the one hand, Italy's star of composition finally presented himself in the Seine metropolis with a piece composed especially for Paris. For more than a year he had been in charge of the Théâtre royal Italy, where many of his operas had been performed - but the demanding and extremely critical Parisian audience demanded a new work from the Italian school and was eagerly awaiting the world premiere. On the other hand, Rossini composed IL VIAGGIO A REIMS for the coronation celebrations of Charles X. As early as 1824, after the death of his brother Louis XVIII. crowned with great pomp in the old rite of the pre-revolutionary monarchs in Reims Cathedral. In the early summer of the following year, the official celebrations took place in Paris, to which all the theaters and opera houses contributed program items. In their coronation opera, Rossini and his librettist Luigi Balocchi decided to make the occasion their own topic: nobles from various European countries want to travel to Reims with their servants for the coronation, but they are stranded in the hotel "Zur goldenen Lilie" and come for lack of horses and Carriage no further - without further ado they decide to drive to Paris and celebrate the new king there, not without first organizing a celebratory dinner in the hotel themselves. This non-action, the external standstill and the waiting are garnished with flirtations, jealousies and plenty of national clichés. Rossini was well aware of the short shelf life of the opera as an occasion piece: he used most of the numbers for his next opera, LE COMTE ORY. After a few performances, IL VIAGGIO A REIMS disappeared from the stage - the work was only rediscovered in the 1980s.
