A grief-stricken father before the lifeless body of his child. Such is the heart-rending image evoked by the final bars of Rigoletto. Taking this drama as a point of departure, Claus Guth has conceived a production in which the buffoon sees his life pass before his eyes, a humiliating farce softened only by the presence of his daughter. Shrouded in a scenography of poetic modernity, haunted by the indelible memory of Gilda, Rigoletto hears her reawaken to the deceptive promises of the Duke of Mantua’s love: “Caro nome…” An aria of great candour and one of the most beautiful that Verdi ever composed for soprano.
