The annual December event which has become something of a fixture on the calendar since Pinchgut&#8217;s first offering in 2002, has focused on early opera, apart from two operas by Mozart (<i>Idomeneo<\/i>) and Haydn (<i>L&#8217;anima del filosofo).<\/i> This winter presentation of Antonio Salieri&#8217;s <i>The Chimney Sweep<\/i> is a foray into the realm of <i>singspiel,<\/i> or <i>Musikalisches Lustspiel <\/i>(although it has been said that the work is more akin to the Italian <i>opera buffa<\/i>).<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0The opera&#8217;s alternative English title is <i>The Indispensable Betrayers of Their Lordships\u2019 Self-interest.<\/i> A product of the Age of Enlightenment, it is the exact anti-thesis to Pinchgut&#8217;s staple fare of \u00a0serious early opera.<\/p>\n<p><i>The Chimney Sweep<\/i> has all the ingredients of the comedies of the late 18th century &#8211; the lives of the <i>bourgeoisie<\/i> and money &#8211; money for marriage, money as inheritance or &#8211; just not enough of it. It premiered in 1781 at the Vienna Burgtheater, built under the auspices of\u00a0 Joseph II. It was his intention that it be a venue for both the aristocracy and the populace to attend entertainment that was accessible to all. The opera represented foil to the established operas and operettas. Class conflict is at the core of\u00a0 the tale.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16575\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16575\" style=\"width: 265px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-16575\" alt=\"David Woloszko, Sabryna Te'o, Stuart Haycock and Christopher Saunders.

For <i>The Chimney Sweep,<\/i> the stage was dominated by a chimney the surround of which was reminiscent of \u00a0<i>La Bocca della<b> <\/b>Verit\u00e0<\/i> (<i>The Mouth of Truth<\/i>), a Roman landmark\u00a0 which achieved popular fame in the Gregory Peck\/Audrey Hepburn movie <i>Roman Holiday.<\/i> Its connection with this production being the myth that it would bite off the hands of liars. Given the duplicity of the characters in the tale, <i>La Bocca<\/i> was an apt backdrop to the drama and its appetite sated.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of the first act, <i>La Bocca<\/i> was transformed into a woodland scene with mock solemnity, for the opera within the opera of the allegorical <i>Abduction of Ganymede,\u00a0 <\/i>the players acting out the buffoonery for which Salieri was renowned.<\/p>\n<p>Saving one of the best features for the end, dozens of endearing albeit grubby chimney sweeps from the Sydney Children\u2019s Choir joined in the finale swelling the sound of the ensemble with a freshness and energy that underscored the universality and mirth of the story&#8217;s moral:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Long life to all women, all men, and all creatures!<\/p>\n<p>Take chances, live boldly and true to your natures.<\/p>\n<p>Spend all of your days in exciting adventures!&#8230;&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;&#8230;.Embrace this queer world and all its paradoxes,<\/p>\n<p>For soon we will all of us end up in boxes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Salieri composed <i>The Chimney Sweep<\/i> at the command of Joseph II. It was performed 13 times in Vienna during 1781\u20132. Hot on its heels came the premiere of Mozart&#8217;s <i>The Abduction from the Seraglio (Die Entf\u00fchrung aus dem Serail) K. 384<\/i> written for the same opera company and which is said to have eclipsed Salieri&#8217;s work.<\/p>\n<p>How ironic that Mozart&#8217;s librettist Da Ponte, wrote more operas for Salieri than for Mozart. <i>La cifra<\/i> (1789) was a precursor of <i>Cos\u00ec fan tutte<\/i>, a libretto intended for Salieri but one that he discarded. Likewise, in 1791 Salieri declined the libretto which became Mozart&#8217;s <i>La clemenza di Tito<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p>The success of this production by Pinchgut Opera which stared down two breaks with their traditions represents a coming of age for the company and is a testament to its maturity and the calibre of its presentations.<\/p>\n<p><em>Shamistha de Soysa for SoundsLikeSydney\u00a9<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>SoundsLikeSydney accepts no fee for reviews.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0The Chimney Sweep\u00a0(Der\u00a0Rauchfangkehrer) Musikalisches Lustspiel in three acts by\u00a0Antonio Salieri,\u00a0libretto by Joseph Leopold Auenbrugger.\u00a0Performed\u00a0in\u00a0the\u00a0vernacular.
