There are very few recordings of Mascagni's Iris, of which only Cavalleria Rusticana is still played. He was, however, the author of some fifteen operas in a rather eclectic style which was influenced by verism among other things. Premiered in 1898, Iris, an opera in three acts, is part of a Japanese-inspired fashion which would culminate in Puccini's Madama Butterfly six years later, whose success would overshadow Mascagni's work.
This new recording, in the absence of stars, makes it possible to reassess this opera and to repair the injustice of the oblivion into which it fell for such a long time. Yet the orchestration is light, the exotic touches discreet, and Mascagni's melodic vein never fails. Made in Berlin in 2021, this concert recording celebrates the tenth anniversary of the Berliner Operngruppe. Founded in 2010 by conductor Felix Krieger, its aim is to present operas outside the usual repertoire. The productions are presented in concert in a semi-stage production and then later published. © François Hudry / Qobuz
