Atto II
The EXAMPLE
Here! ... Lord of the turbo is out Out, will fall upon the head of the wicked. Jeremiah. XXX
Behold, the Lord of the storm, its fury is unleashed, a storm sweeping, hits the head of the wicked. Jer 30, 23
L ' Nabucco wicked will fall like lightning on which the divine punishment, but proceed in order and assist when the curtain rises on Act II. A brief introduction, in which emerging notes expressing inner torment of the protagonist, introduces us into the rooms of Abigaille. This holds a sheet in his recitative and "Have I t'invenni or fatal wrote !..." explains that the document referred to is in possession attesting to its true origin: not the daughter of Nabucco, but slaves. For this reason, the King came to fight against the people 's Isdraele ( and here refers to the rebellion of his vassal Sedacia), left as regent Fenena the child rather than her more and valiant warrior. Here in Abigail we might call the true protagonist of the work, reveals his disappointment, jealousy, anguish, all her pain that turn into hatred Fenena hindering his love, "the fake father," even if against itself. It is his personal drama, his desire for redemption, the battle is ready to fight at the cost of his own life, which does not take any more. The delicate sound of the flute introduces fresh air "I opened up a day that reveals a hidden, frustrated and in pain the goodness of cruel In the scene that follows the warrior, made his entrance on stage, followed by the dignitaries of the kingdom, the High Priest of Belo upset and disgusted, the conduct of the regent Fenena begins: "Horrible scene hath been shown agl'occhi my! "Abigail asked curiously," Oh! that all about?. "And finally a concise rhyme, The High Priest says," Sinner is Fenena, send free the Jews .. "and not knowing how to stop this" damned mob "(the Jews of course) offers the power and demand for Abigail" as ? along with dignitaries, remained silent too, responds with a cabaletta very happy, that is a rumor that the king died in this war on behalf of the people is her calling to be the queen. It's OK: the king Long live the King died, but here it seems a bit 'too much not to have a minimum of condolence for the deceased king, however, the music of Verdi is able to fulfill also the librettist. Abigail, do not expect more, are offered on a silver platter the revenge he craved on Fenena, taking the power that will also redeem its origins as a slave. Court said, the High Priest and the Department of the Kingdom, who will join her in the cabaletta that follows, to accept his will and not to be less strong for him. "Salgo already gilded throne of bloody stool," melody is a lively, funny and cruel while, if we reflect on just bloody stool, if there is another reason why Nicolai refused to music for the opera. But the musician Busseto converts all fear to the joy of aiming for the win, just that reigned negl'animi the Italians, who at the time of the Renaissance, in contrast to the Prussian musician, not afraid of blood.
too, one day I had opened my heart to joy;
all around I heard talk of holy love;
piangeva all'altrui pianto, soffria degli altri al duol;
ah! chi del perduto incanto mi torna un giorno sol?
Noi già sparso abbiamo fama come il re cadesse in guerra...
te regina il popol chiama a salvar l'assiria terra.
Solo un passo...è tua la sorte! Abbi cor!...
Salgo già del trono aurato lo sgabello insanguinato;
ben saprà la mia vendetta da quel seggio fulminar.
Che lo scettro a me s'aspetta tutti i popoli vedranno,
ah! regie figlie qui verranno l'umil schiava a supplicar.
Qui si impone una pausa per il doveroso cambio di scena.
Quando il direttore riprenderà con le prime battute, Il fremito del violino e del violoncello introduce in un ambiente quasi da brivido, che vuol’essere tra il mistico e il misterioso e sottolineano, al tempo stesso, un atteggiamento quasi furtivo che Zaccaria entrando in scena esprime nel suo recitativo incitando un Levita a seguirlo col “Santo Codice” poiché DIO lo ha informato di volerlo ministro di un “ novel portento”, quindi inizia la sua aria che possiamo definire una preghiera, “Tu sul labbro de' veggenti” dal significato apparentemente misterioso che ad alcuni può dar l’impressione that Zechariah almost raving or dreams.
"You on the lip of 'seers Fulminasti, or supreme God!
Assyria in strong accents or speak with you my lips!
and songs you play sacrament each temple;
idols broken over thy law will arise. "
Nella Scena che segue Ismaele comunica ai leviti che sono “bramati” dal pontefice, ma viene aggredito da insulti e maledizioni per aver salvato Fenena dal pugnale di Zaccaria, a sottrarlo all’incalzante tormentone ” Maledetto dal Signor” è Anna, sorella di Zaccaria, in uno dei suoi pochissimi interventi, invitando i fratelli a perdonare perché “Un'ebrea salvata egli ha “ Per convincere i Leviti interviene Zaccaria a confermare i detti della sorella “Inni levate all'Eterno!...È verità! “ Ecco spigato il mistero della scena precedente era proprio da Fenena che Zaccaria si recava per accoglierla nella family of Isdraele. At this point, no time to prepare refreshments or make a toast to celebrate the conversion of the girl who heard suspicious noises, what next? Log in breathless Abdallo Old and faithful officer in Nabucco Fenena announcing the death of his king's intimate, with affection, to flee because "The people now called Abigail, and condemns them." the reaction of the princess is to run between the rebels, all the brake, but it is the rebels to precede the intimate and Abigail to cede the crown, Fenena opposes. To avoid complications, Solera comes between the two Nabucco, resurrected from the dead, that placing him on the head, the crown entrusted pro tempore to his daughter, Abigail challenge "from my head to take it!" The atmosphere is certainly not the most appropriate to welcome the king escaped death, and all were terrified They come looking at the tragic moment everyone on your point of view from start to sing Nabucco, the same air "S'appressan instants" that will lead to another wonderful concert. S'appressan the moments of anger fatal falls on the already silent countenance terror!
lightning around the hatch already the ale! ... preparing a day of mourning and desolate!
The concert will immediately reveals a prophecy that seems to be directed against all, everyone fears that moment, the king despite his fury. Nabucco no longer recognizes the god of the Babylonians who made them traitors to detract from its power and turning to the Jewish state, once again, beaten by their God himself "fell on your own, or foolish Jews, fighting against me." E concludes scandalizing Babylonians and Jews, including his daughter talking to all "Hear my words .. There is only one god .. your king! "
Pretending to be worshiped as such. At which point Zaccaria preliminary sternly prophetic words "Insane! on the ground, falling to the ground your pride ... God PEL crazy hair seize you, you already steals the throne ... " The king ordered that he be taken to death with his people. At these words Fenena communicate broadly to father his conversion: "Jews will die with them. "Nabucco is not accepting the report insists saying the fateful words:" Get down! pay homage! ... I am no longer king, I am God! "Here's to the point, Zechariah's prophecy comes true immediately! A lightning strikes near the King landing, twisting and weakening the mind and the crown falls from his head. In the silence that follows in a choral pianissimo, all express the same thought: "Oh the sky as the bold avenger lightning!" anticipates Verdi Nabucco lost at the edge of madness, the ghostly vision of Banquo in Macbeth's future. Both feel the pull hair and are weakened by a supernatural force. While the main character Macbeth is supported by a demonic Lady behind it to bring it where you want. Nabucco is abandoned by everyone (after all, only better than badly accompanied) remains so only by his madness that expresses, in romance, "Who takes my royal scepter? "During which he discovers, to his surprise, a tear on his brow and finally falls unconscious. Zacccaria interprets the incident, severely as the manifestation of divine wrath of his prophecy: "Heaven has punished the boaster!" While Abigail, in the interests of the people of Belo, but mainly his collection from the ground puts the crown on his head, officially taking power.
Who takes my royal scepter? ... What m'incalza horrible ghost? ...
About PEL crine, ohimè, m'afferra?... chi mi stringe?... chi m'atterra?
chi? chi?... Oh! mia figlia!... e tu pur anco non soccorri al debil fianco?...
Ah fantasmi ho sol presenti... hanno acciar di fiamme ardenti!
E di sangue il ciel vermiglio sul mio capo si versò!
Ah! perché, perché sul ciglio una lagrima spuntò?
Chi mi regge?... io manco!...
AttoIII or third parties this time provides the prophecy of Jeremiah -
Prophecy
The fairs of the desert to Babylon have their room together with the owls, hoopoe and dwell there. Jeremiah LI
" Babylon will become a heap of ruins, a haunt of jackals, an astonishment and scorn, without inhabitants" Jer 51, 37
L 'act should be set in the Hanging Gardens of Babylon (about which will end today? "), near where ARA stands the golden statue of Belo Abigaille with his subjects that the hail by comparing it with Bel, invincible in war" is a queen of Assyria, ie Bel powerful on earth; port everywhere ruin if the stranger calls the war "The High Priest of Belo, with his personal comments, forward the request for death to all Jews and above all for his sister who dare not even mention because "It Belo betrayed ..." and gives the sentence Abigaille. The new Queen seems to pretend hypocritically do not understand, but so advised by a motif similar to steps creeping onto the scene here is supported by the Nabucco Abdallo trust that the order of Abigail back in her room trying to obey but is held back by Nabucco that feeling supported by the soldier whispers in his loss, "because my staff? Are weak, it is true, but woe if anyone knows !..." alone approaches the throne and unbeatable Abigail says in "Who is she?" This dismisses all preferring to be left alone with Nabucco and hidden malice, shall be the king in his place as guardian of his seat, with the indignation of Nabucco communicate the decision of the high priest of executing Jews and then to sign the sentence, Nabucco and Abigaille hesitate to tip his pride inviting Jews to rejoice because "Taken by vile dismay, Nabucco is no longer! "The king signs the document reacting impulsively to that phrase:" Lies! A death, Israel has killed all at once! "Abigail rejoices for having fulfilled its purpose, its revenge.
It's too late when you think Nabucco's daughter Fenena, and when it is proposed as Abigail's other daughter gl 'intimate worship as a slave and look for the document that attests to this point, the woman showed him the document removed before it destroys the his eyes. It is futile humiliation of the king who kneels to beg forgiveness to save his daughter.
change the scene, and here we are on the banks of the Euphrates River. Here Jews forced into chains to work sing The "Va pensiero" chorus that is defined by a certain prayer, but in fact, is a cry, the memories and regrets of their land as it is masterfully explained by maestro Daniel Oren that demonstrates how hard it is to run for more vocal and orchestral difficulties.
The "Va pensiero" conducted by Daniel Oren
ternine the performance of the choir Zaccaria enters blaming the Jews their cries and calls on them to hope and communicates with the prophecy received its air that will end with a choral cabaletta, where he provides for freedom of the Jews and the destruction of Babylon, with joyful hope this ends the third act.
