- It took French countertenor Philippe Jaroussky, 33, all of five minutes to accept the role of King Anfione in Agostino Steffani’s seldom performed baroque opera Niobe, Queen of Thebes (1688). Once shown the score, he could not help but exclaim, “Oh, my God, this is beautiful music!”
Jaroussky discovered the opera after lutenist Paul O’Dette, co-director of the Boston Early Music Festival, traveled to Europe to hear him sing in conductor William Christie’s production of Landi’s Il Sant’Alessio. When O’Dette came backstage afterwards to offer congratulations and show him Steffani’s score, Jaroussky reacted almost immediately. “I was very surprised by the music,” he explained at the start of a transatlantic phone conversation. “I accepted absolutely. While I knew of Steffani because he’s quite famous for his chamber music and huge influence on Handel, I didn’t know his opera music. It’s a very special style, very virtuosic and very moving.”
Although most synopses of Niobe’s libretto, which was inspired by Ovid’s Metamorphoses, home in on Queen Niobe’s tragic loss of her fourteen children and her husband Anfione’s subsequent suicide, Jaroussky’s focus is quite different. He describes the part of Anfione, which was written for castrato voice, as about a king who wants to give up his powers just to compose music.
“He’s a little bit like Orfeo, who convinces the gods to bring his wife back to life,” he says. “In the middle of the opera, his singing is able to build new walls to defend the city. It’s quite a magical power, and very challenging to show in the production. I’m quite excited by it.
“Anfione is a very sweet character, and his music is particularly beautiful. He wants to retire from the world just to compose music. At the end, he learns that all of his children will be killed by God. He cannot support that, and he kills himself. It’s very touching.” [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.][You must be registered and logged in to see this image.][You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]SYNOPSIS - Spoiler:
Act I
The City of Thebes
Anfione, King of Thebes, has ruled for many years and is weary of the pressures of the throne. His wife, Niobe, has born him many children—her Niobids—and is inordinately proud of them. Anfione decides to transfer power to his wife. To this purpose he calls Prince Clearte back from voluntary exile to serve as Regent to Niobe. Clearte is reluctant to accept this rank. Nerea, the nurse to the queen, is aware of the source of Clearte’s discomfort, and she encourages him to reveal his feelings for Niobe. Clearte, left alone, laments his sad state.
A Forest on the outskirts of Thebes
Tiberino, a prince from a faraway land, is on a quest for fame and glory. During the course of a hunt, he rescues Manto, a young maiden in distress. She is overwhelmed by gratitude, and introduces Tiberino to her blind father, Tiresia, the High Priest of Latona. Tiresia is also clairvoyant, and reveals that Tiberino is the son of a King. Manto is smitten, but declares that she serves the goddess Latona, and has not yet worshipped at the altar of Cupid, god of Love. Tiberino is charmed by her naiveté. Left alone, Manto laments her inexperience and inability to express her feelings.
On their way to Thebes, the magician Poliferno has enchanted Creonte, Prince of the rival state of Thessaly. Poliferno casts a spell that causes Creonte to believe that he is in love with Niobe. The magician rouses the Prince and promises to help him to win the queen and the throne of the kingdom to further the cause of Poliferno’s family vendetta against Amphion.
The City of Thebes
Meanwhile, back in Thebes, Anfione devotes his time to the study of the Harmony of the Spheres, and Niobe encourages him. Clearte arrives with the news that Creonte’s army is invading the country. Anfione reluctantly returns to his royal duties. Niobe toys with Clearte under the shrewd eye of Nerea. Alone, Nerea cynically rails about the emotional neediness of women.
Creonte and Poliferno have reached Thebes, and find their way through a secret passage into the city. To protect his people, Anfione invokes Jove’s help with a hymn, and his prayer causes walls to rise and encircle Thebes. When she sees this feat, Niobe is convinced of her husband’s divinity, and asks the people to bow down and worship Anfione as the new Theban god. High Priest Tiresia is appalled by this blasphemy, and protests vigorously. Niobe will suffer no dissent and throws the old man to the ground, forcing him to make obeisance to her husband. Anfione, still in a trance and oblivious to the conflict, finds comfort in Niobe’s praise. Tiresia is left on the ground, hurt and alone, where Manto and Tiberino find him and are appalled by this abuse. They entrust him to the care of Tiberino’s companions. Manto takes comfort from Tiberino, and the young couple explores their feelings for each other. Tiberino is touched by Manto’s inexperience, and he resolves to declare himself to her. His companions congratulate him and tease him about his new love.
ACT II
The City of Thebes
Poliferno uses magic to hide himself and Creonte in a cloud so that they can observe Niobe unseen. Clearte and the Theban court arrive, still in awe of Anfione’s power and the raising of the walls. The Thebans, their confidence renewed, rally to engage the Thessalian invaders, but Clearte struggles with his unrequited love for Niobe.
The queen arrives, and declares her desire to raise Clearte to the throne. Clearte is reluctant to defy Anfione, but Niobe justifies her command by explaining that Anfione has relinquished his royal responsibilities. The king arrives, and is shocked to see Clearte in his seat. Niobe placates Anfione by offering him a place more suited to his station, and presents a celestial shrine worthy of his godlike powers. Anfione is beguiled by her plan, and enters the starry vault. The whole court is compelled to make obeisance to their new god. Poliferno interrupts the idolatry and abducts Niobe. Anfione, frightened and alone, laments the disappearance of his wife.
A Forest on the outskirts of Thebes
Tiresia, confused, cannot clearly discern the omens, but before he leaves, he reveals to Tiberino that his quest will be fulfilled not by success in war, but by other conquests. Manto arrives with her companions, and confesses her affections to Tiberino, but he decides to wait for a better time to reveal his feelings for her. Manto, left alone, is puzzled by his reticence. Poliferno, disguised as Mercury, leads Niobe through the forest. He flatters her by telling her that the god Mars has chosen her as his wife. Niobe is ecstatic at this turn of fortune. Posing as Mars, Creonte is able to declare his love for the queen. Under Poliferno’s spell, the couple is transported by amorous rapture.
The City of Thebes
Tiresia reveals to the king that he has been deceived by Poliferno’s magic, that Niobe has been abducted by Creonte, and that these misfortunes are the result of the royal couple’s arrogance. Anfione vows to take revenge on the Thessalian invaders.
A Forest on the outskirts of Thebes
Nerea, who has fled the city, finds Manto complaining of her amorous suffering. The confused girl rejects Tiberino’s efforts to console her, and the young Prince finds little comfort in the jaded observations of Nerea. He realizes that he is a prisoner of his love. Nerea preaches her philosophy by lecturing sarcastically about the wiliness of men.
ACT III
A Forest on the outskirts of Thebes
Niobe enjoys the attentions of Mars/Creonte and abandons herself to sensual oblivion. Their erotic rapture is interrupted by Poliferno, who bursts in to warn Creonte that the Theban army is approaching. Creonte and Poliferno leave in haste; the spell is broken, and Niobe is left behind, unconscious. Anfione discovers his wife and reveals to her that she has been deceived, and that her so-called Mars was none other than their enemy Creonte. Niobe, outraged to have been duped in this way, blames the gods for this humiliation, and swears revenge. Anfione loses hope of ever finding peace of mind.
The Temple of Latona
Tiresia celebrates of union of his daughter Manto with Tiberino. The High Priest and his new son-in-law leave Manto to her devotions. Niobe sweeps into the temple and boasts of her supremacy over the gods; she then commands her followers to destroy the images of Latona, Diana, and Apollo. The Queen orders Clearte to prepare a ceremony to acknowledge her children as gods, and exults in her victory. Nerea scolds the followers, pointing out that those who live a life of deception will never find true love.
The Square of Thebes
In the great square of Thebes, Clearte leads the Niobids in a triumphant procession, but Diana and Apollo destroy the walls of the city and strike the children from above, killing them all. Seeing this, Anfione takes his own life in despair, and Niobe arrives as he takes his last breath. She cries out in horror at the devastating sight of her dead family, but her grief is so great that she cannot weep. She is turned to stone by her own torment.
Creonte, victorious, enters the city. Free of enchantments, he exiles Poliferno, blesses the union of Tiberino and Manto, and promises a secure future for Nerea. The Thessalians and Thebans celebrate their new King.

| tuffy942Yes, they WILL have their own recording, of course! All the productions were recorded. So, maybe you´re so extremely lucky to get this "house- tape". About the "death" - in the video ( Forum above) on the question "How will you die?" Il Primo Uomo answered - " It will be а sweet suicide, not violent". Though.... You´re our ambassador now! Please, don´t forget saludo also for the boys here! We´re only a few, but .... Good luck and ENJOY!

| Now that I am on earth again, I can tell you that this opera was a jewel. Well sung, beautifully costumed as you guys have seen in the pictures. There were moments that were otherwordly, like when the children revolve slowly around their father, the King, carrying spheres representing planets, while Philippe sings the most incredible melody, as the walls of Thebes slowly rise from the ground. Goosebump moment!! Since you have read all reviews, I will let you know about Philippe....I sent him some flowers before the opera, and he sent word he would talk to me after. So I was all full of butterflies. I went backstage and waited for him. After long endless moments he was there, bright eyed (maybe bushy tailed too,I don't know) and immediately recognized me and kissssssssseeeeddd me....I gave him some stuff and he was funny, he said "Oh, it's Xmas again!!"I asked him if he was tired and he said this opera was "preciosa" but it was easy for him, just get up and sing...!!!!Right! He did tell me they will have the CD soon, and "Maybe" they were talking about a DVD for next year. He also said he had to work "like a beast" when he got back and that he would see Cecilia Bartoli. He will be back in October and November. He thought Boston was very quiet. I asked him if he reads this forum and he said he did, some times, and was grateful to everyone . He seemed very surprised when he asked me if I had gone to Boston just for the opera and I said of course. I think he is really so modest he does not see how special it is what he gives us, and what a star he is! My husband was flapping his arms and looking not happy, so after I gave him a CD of South american arias sung by a tenor (he made a joke about the guy "looking like a tenor") I had to say goodbye, he said he would see me next time, kiss,kiss and that was it.All in all it made not only my day but my year. Beautiful man. | |

| Now that I am home,and all the butterflies have subsided I will give you a proper review of the opera. Here goes. From King, divine God, weeping father to mortal man. Philippe took us through all the emotional turmoil in an opera that should have been called "Anfione", because the opera was entirely his.Ten arias, all very diverse, all accompanied with an ensemble that deserves a whole other review. Everyone else was in another category, although all accomplished and some , like Manto, the young girl, with a very flexible light voice and beautiful presence..But about Philippe:he took us through a whole scale of emotions as his role developed until his poignant lamentation to see his dead children.Standing there in the middle of the stage, one child in his arms. OMG. Someone in the silence of the audience said "wow!" and it was a wow performance. His voice too hovers with delicate pianissimo and pure poetry. Excellent projection in a somewhat small but deliciously baroque theatre.The coloratura in the aria di tempeste was impressive but then we are used to Philippe's ease in the runs and ornamentations. Ms Forsythe as Niobe was adequate in a thankless role that redeems itself as she is turned into stone. The scenery was exquisite, just as an early baroque work would need. A bear, a flying dragon (in a flying cloud) and much movement of panels and scenery at the final disaster. The costumes were lavish. Lots of brocade and feathered headpieces. And to top it, several lovely dances choreographed and interpreted with energy and dancing ability. This is if not the, one of the most beautiful operas I have ever seen. The other interpreters, Matthew White as Creonte had the most unfortunate expression throughout and his wig was too low. He does have a beautiful pure voice, not too strong. Clearte sung by Kevin Skelton was very effective and his voice reminded me of David Taylor's, or Jonathan Peter Kenny, sweet and with a great lower range.Jose Lemos as Niobe's nurse was uneven but very funny . All the interpreters were very effective. The Applause was well deserved. The roar for PJ was too. Later I asked Philippe if it was fair for all his European audience to enjoy at a distance only, but he was vague about a DVD or "maybe next year".He did say that he felt this role was much more for him than as Nerone. I asked several people from the BEMF if there is a possibility of a DVD.I hope! A CD for sure will come out at some point hopefully this year. | |

| Battlelover, Since there is only one source for the choreography, Caroline Copeland and Mr Fittante had to do a bit of searching to recreate tha art of Baroque dance. In this case A M. Rodier had described in detail a number of choreographies for Niobe.There is a fusion of French and Italian in the dancing and the music used was ccomposed by Melchior d"Ardespin.The dancers were Melinda Sullivan,Ballet Mistress and Caroline Copley,Karen Modigh and Carlos Fittante the featured dancers. The fluidity of the costumes and airy feel gave agility and beauty to all the dances. OMG means Oh my God and is a sign of true amazement either positive or negative. In this case it was very positive! | |
