Als einer der führenden Opernkomponisten seiner Generation hegte Johann Simon Mayr eine Faszination für die ritterlichen Geschichten des mittelalterlichen England. Le due duchesse, eine Opera semiseria mit Buffa-Elementen, spielt während der Regierungszeit des Königs Edgar im 10. Jahrhundert. Die Chöre von Jägern und Rittern und Troubadour-ähnliche Lieder verleihen einer Partitur, die sowohl lyrisch als auch dramatisch ist, große Lebendigkeit. Mayrs Verbindung von Wiener Klassik und italienischer melodischer Schönheit, verbunden mit seinem anspruchsvollen Schreibstil und einem gekonnten Libretto, brachte eine wichtige und einflussreiche Oper hervor, die in seinem eigenen unverwechselbaren Idiom gehalten ist.
As one of the leading operatic composers of his generation, Johann Simon Mayr nurtured a fascination with the chivalric stories of medieval England. Le due duchesse, an opera semiseria with buffa elements, is set during the reign of the 10th-century King Edgar. Huntsmen’s and Knights’ choruses and troubadour-like songs give great vivacity to a score that is both lyrical and dramatic. Mayr’s compound of Viennese Classicism and Italianate melodic beauty, allied to his ambitious writing and a skilful libretto, produced an important and influential opera couched in his own unmistakable idiom.

Reviews
»Franz Hauk, Experte mit einer langen Liste an Mayr-Einspielungen, behält souverän den Überblick über dieses großangelegte musikalische Panorama.« (Fono Forum, Oktober 2020)»Eine komplett unbekannte Oper wird von einem Ensemble ganz ohne Starnamen zum Leben erweckt und heraus kommt ein erstaunliches Hörvergnügen!« (klassik.heute.com)
