Although the great historical opera in five acts by the composer Daniel Francois Esprit Auber was able to experience its 500th performance in 1880, the opera is almost forgotten today and is rarely performed. In April 2010 the work premiered in the original language at the Anhaltisches Theater Dessau under the direction of GMD Antony Hermus and is finally available on cpo. There is probably no other work in the more than 400-year history of the opera that has had such immediate political impact as "La Muette de Portici". How much Auber and Scribe had hit the nerve of their time with this work, the rebellion of the "common people" against a restorative social order, became clear on the occasion of its first performance in Brussels in 1830 in the presence of the Dutch king. The Belgian opera audience believed they saw their own oppressed nation embodied in the mute fishing girl Fenella. The duet Masaniello / Pietro, which calls for an uprising in the name of the holy love of the fatherland and quotes the text of the Marseillaise, electrified the opera audience so much that they stormed out of the theater and occupied the Palace of Justice. This performance thus became the starting point for the Belgian Revolution of 1830, which led to the country's renewed independence from the Netherlands.
