The best operas overtures for a girl like me.

First part.

By Laura Stephanie Villamil Martínez.

How to start? I really do not know! Hahaha. I have listened to so much classical music that I no longer know which is the best musical piece but something that I have listened to, with much attention and appreciation, are the beautiful works or pieces that open up to an even greater show: What we all know as operas overtures.
Here I only write a small part of what I think regarding great emotions that are at the beginning of many more written and / or composed by beings who were inspired by facts of their life or readings of other great teachers in literature and who helped " unintentionally ”to these composers to grow even more ...


1.      Overture CARMEN, George Bizet.

Pure blast by God! I sincerely believe that Bizet was happy, ecstatic, excited, etc. Because he wanted to express what he felt when writing this famous opera and when he started with an explosive, joyous, lively and fun overture, a spirit full of positivity and creativity that exploded in this opera was noted; not only with the overture, but also with his arias "Habanera", "La fleur que tu m'avais jetée" and "Toreador" is that he decided to do his best musical and operatic work.

I'm just saying that this overture is the best for an opera full of passion, romance, energy and pain.


2.      Overture THE MARRIAGE OF FIGARO, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

If there's one thing I agree with musical historians: Mozart was a child trapped in the body of an adult. A harmonious, playful melody, full of fun, magic, color and beauty through a vibrant, fast and exciting sound that even makes me smile remembering the adventures of Figaro for the mere fact of scolding his boss; Mozart described himself through his music as a childish being, some ridiculous, but who always found genius in everything he saw and heard. His intellect never rested despite being "an inner child" and that is reflected in this overture so full of fun, optimism, elegance and revolution (you know what I mean).

I will always want to hear this "boy" in this great opening.


3.      Overture THE BARBER OF SEVILLE, Gioacchino Rossini.

I keep saying the same thing: Rossini was the best composing operas bufas because he knew the type of music for these texts full of humor and everyday philosophy, he was a man who thought about the lives of others, took him to musicalize in a fun way and let others will enjoy it; With this overture he left that he was not as serious a composer as others, with this work he opened space for the opera buffa and took it to his altars.


Of course Mozart had left it open but Rossini left it very well put and he had also exposed his thought with this single overture: the most common can be shown in public and be applauded for it.

    Rossini's William Tell's overture reminds me my childhood. Now I find Wagner's Tanhauser very profound.

Un puñal en el corazón.

Había una vez, en un reino lejano, una condesa llamada María Elena Luisa Báthory de Ecsed. Era conocida por su belleza insuperable: su cabello castaño caía en ondas hasta los hombros, sus ojos marrones irradiaban profundidad, sus labios lucían un carmesí encantador y su piel morena era suave como la seda. María Elena Luisa, o MEL como la llamaban sus seres queridos, estaba felizmente casada hacía cinco años con el apuesto príncipe Edgard de Borbón. A pesar del amor que compartían, MEL permitía que Edgard hiciera lo que quisiera, incluso tener fiestas excesivas, en un intento de no sofocar su libertad y, quizás, mantener viva la chispa del amor. Sin embargo, con el tiempo, Edgard comenzó a distanciarse de MEL. Sus muestras de afecto disminuyeron y su atención se desvió hacia otras mujeres. MEL, desesperada por reconquistar su amor, intentó de todas las maneras posibles recuperar la conexión perdida. Pero sus esfuerzos fueron en vano cuando una noche descubrió a Edgard en flagrante adult...

I'm doomed But you taught me to love, I feel pardoned For your desire in me to burn. I'm doomed For not knowing how to love, I'm imputed For your dark look. I'm doomed Because of your beautiful being And you love He made me know. I'm doomed Without your passion, Out of your love Heart pallor I'm sentenced By your sheer glimpse But it will be your absolution The one that says to me: "I forgive you my beloved".

Un puñal en el corazón: una revuelta de emoción.

Con el corazón destrozado, Edgard abandonó la iglesia, sintiendo el peso de sus acciones sobre sus hombros. El disfraz de monje se había vuelto una carga que apenas podía soportar mientras sus pensamientos se enredaban en un torbellino de remordimiento y desesperación. De vuelta en el palacio, cada paso pesaba como una losa sobre su conciencia. Ansiaba encontrar a MEL, esperando poder disipar sus dudas y restaurar la confianza perdida. Sin embargo, al llegar a su habitación, se encontró con la puerta cerrada y el silencio como respuesta a sus llamados. Con el corazón latiendo con fuerza en su pecho, Edgard golpeó la puerta con insistencia, rogando a MEL que le permitiera entrar y hablar. Pero sus súplicas fueron en vano. Solo el eco de su voz resonaba en el pasillo vacío. Con el alma hecha jirones, Edgard se derrumbó frente a la puerta, dejando escapar un sollozo angustiado. Había perdido a la mujer que amaba, y la culpa pesaba sobre él como una losa. ¿Cómo pudo haber permitido que las...
