Le Balcon

Résumé

By choosing to set Jean Genet’s Le Balcon to music, Peter Eötvös barely had to alter the original play. Whereas for his previous opera (Three Sisters) he set Anton Chekhov’s text in a complex perspective, here he has remained faithful to the linear progression of the work, and only condensed the structure, leaving the dialogue unchanged. Libretto writer, Françoise Morvan, has compressed the play, introducing only the slightest stylistic variations possible and remaining faithful to the spirit of the original. In this way, the musician treats Le Balcon as if it were already a potential opera libretto.
