L'Arlésienne (novel and play)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
L'Arlésienne was a novel, written by Alphonse Daudet and first published in his collection Letters From My Windmill (Lettres de mon moulin) in 1869.
On a commission from Léon Carvalho, the author transformed the novel in 1872, into a play in three acts and five tableaux with music and chorus. Georges Bizet wrote incidental music for the play's first production, the score later being used for two suites of the same name, the first established by Bizet himself in 1872, the second after Bizet's death, by Ernest Guiraud.
Daudet's play formed the basis of the Italian opera L'arlesiana (1897), text by Leopoldo Marenco, music by Francesco Cilea.
The play is set in Provence, France. L’Arlésienne, which translates to "the girl from Arles", is loved by a young peasant Fréderi. However, upon discovering her infidelity prior to their wedding date, Fréderi approaches madness. His family tries at great length to "save" their son, but eventually Fréderi commits suicide by jumping off a balcony.
