Thank you :) ***FULL COMMENT: SEE THE FIRST PINNED COMMENT*** Christoph Willibald Gluck occupies an unassailable place in the history of music as one of the great “opera reformers.“ Here is an opera that can be classified at the same level as those of Mozart by its thematic and melodic richness. We are struck by the long orchestral passages that support and consolidate the dramatic framework. He strove to create a new and till then unknown kind of music-drama, in direct opposition to the two main currents in eighteenth-century music theatre — principally, the pandering to vocal virtuosity in opera seria which was rapidly reaching the stage when the singers’ skill was becoming an end in itself, but also the Singspiel movement with its banal plots and folk-like, strophic songs. In contradistinction to these, Gluck considered the real task of the music to be the outlining of the dramatic action. Every sentiment, every emotion, every turn in the plot must be mirrored in the music, must indeed be fully comprehensible only through the music. In the poet Ranieri de’ Calzabigi Gluck found a librettist who was to inspire and stimulate him, and whose librettos matched his own ideas perfectly.
