Tiivistelmä
This thesis examines the dramatic structure of the music in the opera Rigoletto.
First, I introduce the historical background of this opera, how it was created as well as the changes between the original text Le roi s’amuse on which this opera is based and the libretto.
Secondly, I analyse the musical dramaturgy of this opera based on the analysis of Marcello Conati and Martin Chiusid.
Finally, I discuss the findings of my analysis in comparison with Conati’s interpretation. This analysis will help performers and directors to have a more detailed interpretation of the musical dramaturgy. A more detailed understanding of the opera is helpful in learning the piece as well as making the right interpretative choices.
