Mathilde von Guise was one of Hummel’s best known operas, partly because the composer actually issued a printed piano score which was published in Leipzig in 1823. It was written for Vienna where it was premiered, in German, at the Kartnertortheater. As was the case with all German lyric drama at the time, it was in the form of a singspiel: with spoken dialogue. Hummel decided to perform the work again in 1821 at the Court Theatre in Weimar where he was working and made some minor revisions to the piece, along with changing the overture.
The original of the libretto, is actually a French opéra comique, premiered in Paris in 1808. In 1823, whilst the publishers Peters were producing the vocal score Hummel tried to interest them in an Italian version presumably on the basis that Italian was still the standard language for opera.
In fact, that Italian version does not seem to exist and this new recording uses a brand new Italian translation.
The performers do give it their best shot. Granted, the virtuoso nature of the roles sometimes taxes them, but the overall impression is one of civilised charm. Kristine Gailite is an attractive Mathilde and Philippe Do makes credible love interest as Beaufort. The remaining cast all contribute and you feel that this is a real ensemble piece.
The Slovakian period instrument ensemble Solamente Naturali provides lively and stylish accompaniment under the direction of Didier Talpain.– Robert Hugill
