Dass eine Oper verboten wurde, weil sie zu wirkungsstark war, konnte in den Jahren des „ Risorgimento “, der italienischen Unabhängigkeitsbewegung in der ersten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts, niemanden erstaunen.
Giuseppe Verdi musste sich bekanntlich immer wieder mit den Forderungen einer bornierten Zensur herumschlagen, aber auch der 16 Jahre ältere Gaetano Donizetti war diesbezüglich vom Pech verfolgt.
Seine Oper MARIA STUARDA nach der literarischen Vorlage von Friedrich Schillers „ Maria Stuart “ hatte es besonders schwer.
www.deutscheoperberlin.deIn the years of the “ Risorgimento ”, the Italian independence movement in the first half of the 19th century, the idea of an opera being banned because of the effect it had on the public hardly raised an eyebrow.
Just as Giuseppe Verdi often had to deal with the demands of a narrow-minded Office of Censorship, so Gaetano Donizetti, 16 years his senior, was dogged by the same problems.
His opera MARIA STUARDA, based on Friedrich Schiller s “ Maria Stuart ”, was particularly subject to the attention of the censor.
