Beautiful, seemingly fragile young women who are nevertheless possessed of other strengths can be found in many of Giuseppe Verdi’s operas. Violetta Valéry is one of these. In common with the character she is based on, the dame aux camélias from Alexandre Dumas’ novel of the same name, at first she is worshipped by a pleasure-seeking society, then later despised. Violetta is beautiful, clever, warm-hearted – and incurably ill. Her path in life has been predestined. There is no place in it for personal happiness, and none either for her love of the young Alfredo Germont, who conquers her heart and wants to rescue her from the vicious circle of selling her love and give her a life without worries. She meets her nemesis in the form of his father, Giorgio Germont. He appeals to Violetta’s conscience not to damage the reputation of his upper class family and forces her to abandon her lover in order not to endanger his sister’s prospects of marriage. Only in her hour of death is Violetta granted “redemption” from the fight she has had to wage against a society that is not prepared to stomach a misalliance between the well-placed bourgeoisie and someone who has strayed from the right path (la traviata).
In their production, first shown at Oper Leipzig in 1997, the successful opera director and artistic director Andreas Homoki and his stage designer Frank Philipp Schlößmann have made the glass-smooth society amongst whom the eponymous heroine experiences both her triumphs and her demise visible in the stalls.
