☀️ WITH BEAUTIFUL ART & CULTURE INTO A BEAUTIFUL WEEKEND! 🌹   🎼 The opera "Werther" (Drame lyrique) by the French composer Jules Massenet (1842 – 1912) is a masterpiece of French late Romanticism based on Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's famous epistolary novel "The Sorrows of Young Werther," the first million-bestseller in literary history, which premiered at the Vienna Court Opera in 1892. The famous letter scene "Werther! Qui m'aurait dit" deals with Charlotte's deep, painful love for Werther.   👏 For the musical delight, the performance by Dr. phil. Marie-Luise Reinhard, who is not only an outstanding classical singer (mezzo-soprano/alto) but also an equally outstanding German classical philologist (Latinist), capable of giving lectures or communicating in fluent Latin. – THIS is European educational culture in its full glory! 🙏   🎶 „Werther! Qui m'aurait dit“ from Massenet´s Opera „Werther“: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ej0TeXsRdss     👌 An erudite conversation in LATIN: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLNKiON0k_c
