With “Guillaume Tell” Rossini finally offered Parisian audiences an original opera in French, though the public wouldn’t be too excited by Rossini’s experiment with the genre and the opera; coldly received at the premiere, not often performed after, never truly forgotten, but not a popular favorite, the work has only recently went through a veritable Renaissance on the wave of reappraisal belcanto has enjoyed for the past fifty years and it absolutely deserves our reevaluation. Into its historical panorama based on the play by Schiller Rossini wove pastoral elements, patriotic deeds and superbly drawn characters. He responded imaginatively to the challenge of creating a work for the French Opera without abandoning his Italian roots, integrating the belcanto lyricism and formal refinement of Italian opera (mostly evident in the lovers’ music) with the declamatory immediacy and scenic splendor (particularly in the extensive choruses and ballets) of French opera.

When I first listened through it, I couldn’t believe just how ideal it was: the whole opera is composed on one breath, there are virtually no self-borrowings, as Rossini usually did, moreover, each piece has its’ logical place in the whole opera, making for a thoroughly delightful experience; the story is exciting and, though …

Why does this open with Peer Gynt’s Suite No.1 op 46 (the sunrise morning riff from the Looney Tunes cartoons)? At least that is what it sounds like to me.

i used to hear this song as a background music of the looney tunes series – usually episodes with duffy duck and elmer j.fudd. you may think cartoons are childish and trivial, but all these narratives and music had a tremendous role in the shaping of my personality. thank you looney tunes, thank you warner brothers!

A brilliant, stirring end to a beautiful piece of music. The image, though it fits well, is not of a cavalry charge. It’s Rosa Bonheur’s masterpiece, The Horse Fair.
