It received its first performance on 11 November 1679 in the presence of a hand-picked audience made up of members of the Venetian nobility and numerous foreign ambassadors. So successful did it prove that reports soon spread to the rest of Europe.<\/p>\n<p>The libretto by Francesco Maria Piccioli tells of the amorous intrigues set in motion by the arrival of a shipwrecked sailor on the island that is home to the Amazons. The sailor is none other than Anapiet, a spy on the payroll of the king of the Egyptians, Sultan, who plans to lay siege to these female warriors and ultimately marry their queen, Pulcheria.<\/p>\n<p>The work is not based on any particular myth or legend, still less on any historical facts but derives its inspiration from the world of the Amazon warriors that is found in various works ranging from the writings of Diodorus Siculus and Federico Della Valle to Vivaldi\u2019s opera <em>Ercole su\u2019l Termodonte<\/em>, which had reached Venice a year earlier. As such, the work was far in advance of its times, foregrounding female characters and even taking seriously a same-sex relationship between two Amazon women, which it treats without irony or misrepresentation. Its libretto provides for an opulent and, indeed, exceptional staging that calls for elaborate sets, several hundred performers and some fifty horses and their female riders. Carlo Pallavicini\u2019s music is in perfect alignment with the text, underscoring not only the confusion felt by the Amazons when confronted by their emotions, the complexity of which is reflected in the rich expressive palette of the score\u2019s recitatives and arias, but also the splendour of their military power, which is summed up in the sound of trumpets and timpani. Both the music and the staging cast a spell over Jacques Chassebras, Seigneur de Cramailles, who wrote in the <em>Mercure galant<\/em> in December 1679: \u201cThis is the most astonishing and most magnificent spectacle ever to have been spoken of [\u2026] a marvellous spectacle that seems to be less of an opera than a form of sheer enchantment.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3753,"template":"","event-type":[111],"event-saison":[294,329],"class_list":["post-3751","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","event-type-opera-and-oratorio-en","event-saison-season-2021-2022","event-saison-season-2022-2023"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Le Amazzoni nell&#039;Isole Fortunate | Les Talens Lyriques<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lestalenslyriques.com\/en\/event\/le-amazzoni-nellisole-fortunate-2\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Le Amazzoni nell&#039;Isole Fortunate | Les Talens Lyriques\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Carlo Pallavicino (ca 1630-1688) Le Amazzoni nell&#8217;isole fortunate Dramma per musica in 1 prologue and 3 acts on a libretto by Francesco Maria Piccioli.
