Verdi's opera was inspired by a true historical event: the assassination of King Gustav III of Sweden at a costume ball in 1792. But before setting this event to music, Verdi had to contend with the censors, scandalised by the idea of representing a regicide on stage.
Originally conceived by Louis Mérante, Sylvia was the first ballet to be performed at the newly-opened Palais Garnier in 1876, to a brilliant score by Léo Delibes, who also composed Coppélia. But it is the version by Manuel Legris, a Paris Opera Étoile dancer and the director of the Teatro alla Scala Ballet Company, that is making its repertoire debut.
A season behind the scenes at the Paris Opera. Moving from dance to music, alternately ironic, light and cruel, “The Opera” portrays human passions and tells fragments of lives, at the heart of one of the world’s most prestigious opera institutions.
