The Metropolitan Opera revived the opera in the 1994/1995 season. Corigliano considers this work a "grand opera buffa" because it incorporates both elements of the grand opera style (large chorus numbers, special effects) and the silliness of the opera buffa style. Commentators have noted how the opera satirises and parodies accepted operatic conventions. (en)
  • I fantasmi di Versailles (The Ghosts of Versailles) è un'opera lirica di John Corigliano su libretto di William M. Hoffman. Parlando del genere della propria opera, Corigliano l'ha descritta come una "grand opéra buffa", perché in essa si mescolano temi e caratteristici della Grand opéra e dell'opera buffa. L'opera, commissionata nel 1980 dalla Metropolitan Opera House, debuttò al teatro il 19 dicembre 1991 con la regia di Colin Graham, la direzione musicale di James Levine e un cast prestigioso che annoverava Teresa Stratas, Renée Fleming e Marilyn Horne. L'opera fu riproposta sulle scene del Met nella stagione 1994/1995 con gran parte del cast originale e Levine ancora sul podio. La stagione successiva invece l'opera fu allestita alla Lyric Opera di Chicago, con alcuni modifiche apportate per semplificarne il libretto e la messa in scena. La prima europea è del 2008, quando I fantasmi di Versailles fu portato in scena in una co-produzione dell'Opera Theatre of Saint Louis e della Wexford Festival Opera; per l'occasione, il compositore John David Earnest revisionò la partitura per rendere il melodramma un'opera da camera. Nel 2015 l'opera è stata allestita dalla Los Angeles Opera con la direzione musicale di James Conlon e Patricia Racette e Patti LuPone nel cast. Nel 2019 invece l'opera è stata messa in scena alla Reggia di Versailles. (it)
