Орфей и Эвридика — это лирическая опера, написанная Кристофом Виллибальдом Глюком на либретто Раньери де Кальцабиджи, его 30-я и самая известная постановка. Успех этой драмы заключается в силе её сюжета, новаторстве, которое продолжится в Альцеста, а также в Парис и Елена. На самом деле, Глюк предложил упростить драматическое действие и неясные фразы, а также вокальную виртуозность оперы-сериа, и в Орфей и Эвридика он реализует то, что сейчас называется «реформой Глюка», которая позже повлияет на таких композиторов, как Берлиоз и Вагнер. Опера Глюка обращается к мифу об Орфее — певце par excellence — который убеждает богов воскресить его возлюбленную Эвридику с помощью трогательной жалобы. Но один лишь взгляд приводит его к потере всего... Орфей и Эвридика предоставила одну из самых известных арий лирического репертуара («Che farò senza Euridice»), а также некоторые из самых запоминающихся хоровых шедевров.

The story of Orpheus was a great source of inspiration for many artists throughout history (including Monteverdi, who composed L’Orfeo), but the novelty of Gluck’s tragic opera lies in bringing back the simplicity of ancient Greek plots, as well as their compositional balance. The symbolism evoked by Orpheus was not Gluck’s original creation: the character of Orpheus forms the basis of an esoteric cult which takes his name, Orphism.

In his essay L’Espace littéraire (“The Space of Literature”), Maurice Blanchot dedicated a significant chapter to the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, a conceptual core of his text. By means of an allusive argumentation, Blanchot argues that this myth represents the essence of artistic creation, a process that never leaves the writer satisfied. In fact, the French philosopher interprets the gesture of Orpheus, who turns to his lover at the exit of Hell, as the impossibility of an author to reach his muse. Returning to Gluck, one might wonder how Blanchot would have read the narrative variant staged in Orfeo ed Euridice: in this opera, the intervention of a deus ex machina saves the two lovers from death… And yet, Gluck’s incessant rewriting of Orfeo ed Euridice (who signed at least four versions of his work) seems to support Blanchot’s interpretation!
