Rigoletto

In Verdi"s classic opera, Rigoletto, the epidemic that erodes the palaces also eats away at hearts and bodies. But the Machiavellian jester conceals a fatal flaw in the depths of his soul: a father's love.

"And Mantua is nothing more than a coffin on a raft washed up in the water pools, between the purulent mud and a blood red sky." Such is how André Suarès describes Mantua in his Voyage du condottiere. Under his hand, no word seems too strong to convey the decay of the city, "rotting and stinking of death". Is this the city's fateful spirit?

In the space of three perfectly economical and well-defined acts, the marshes will once again rise to cover everything. Undoubtedly Verdi's greatest works were inspired by the implacable machination of misfortune, the irresistible force of destiny. How many curses, how many races to the abyss, how many characters beside themselves, trying for one moment to act and to exist but quickly swept away by a furious fatality? Rigoletto is perhaps the most perfect example of this, an almost abstract demonstration. Three characters barely deserving the name, more like archetypes: a thoughtless and immoral prince, his Machiavellian jester and an innocent young girl.

But tragedy will lay hold of the fatal flaw that Rigoletto conceals in the depths of his soul: a father's love.
