Arianna a Nasso: history and curiosities

Arianna a Nasso – as Il borghese gentiluomo – is the outcome of Strauss’ collaboration with poet and playwright Hugo von Hofmannsthal. Their debut dates to 1912, in Stuttgart’s Court Theatre, directed by Max Reinhardt (with his theatre company), and conducted by Richard Strauss. They were presented as a unitary project, with the original combination of the subject taken from the comédie-ballet Le bourgeois gentilhomme – with words by Molière and music by Jean-Baptiste Lully – and the myth of Ariadne.

The audience’s reaction towards this work was tepid, and the two pieces were “separated” and revised, thus creating two new successful works and to Ariadne auf Naxos was added a prologue,

The 46th Festival della Valle d’Itria develops around the theme of Ariadne, situated between the Baroque world and recuperation of classical culture.
