Abstracts

EN

This study deals with the fairy-tale opera, Rozprávka o šťastnom konci [A Tale of a Happy End] (2019), of the Slovak composer Peter Zagar, commissioned by the Slovak National Theatre in Bratislava. Although this is Zagar’s only opera so far, the composer has ample experience in dramatic composition, as he has composed music for dramatic and ballet/dance productions and soundtracks for movies. The study discusses not only the dramaturgical structure and the music of the opera, and the specificities of its performance, but also points out the pitfalls of opera production for children and the importance of musical-intellectual education.
