Synopsis
The story takes place in the March home in Concord, Mass., and through the
memory of Jo March. The time is circa 1870 and the years following.
Prologue
On a visit back home, 21-year-old Jo March sits in the attic where she used to
play as a girl, writing in her journal. Her childhood friend, Laurie, who has recently
married Jo’s youngest sister, Amy, surprises her. They nostalgically reminisce, until
Laurie casually mentions how perfect life was when they were young. His remark
prompts Jo to retreat into a vivid examination of her life. The opera unfolds in this
dreamtime.
Act I
Scene 1
Jo is younger. Called forth by her memories, her sisters Meg, Beth, and Amy
emerge, and Laurie joins them in a game. When Alma March, the girls’ mother, calls
everyone down for supper, Laurie stays behind to tell Jo he knows the whereabouts
of Meg’s missing glove; John Brooke, Laurie’s tutor, has found it and kept it. He and
Meg have become very friendly.
Scene 2
Jo is forced to confront her greatest fear—that her sisters will leave the nest.
Scene 3
Meg and Brooke dawdle in the garden outside the March home, obviously in
love. Inside, Jo and Laurie spy on the couple, and Jo rudely interrupts. Meg invites
Brooke to speak with her father.
Scene 4
The March family is having an evening at home; Laurie joins them. Beth
sings her new composition, and Jo torments Meg over her infatuation with Brooke.
Brooke arrives, distracted.
Scene 5
While Meg and Brooke are alone, he blurts out a marriage proposal, much
to the dismay of Jo, who is eavesdropping. Aunt Cecilia, Gideon’s wealthy, eccentric
sister, is dismayed by the prospect of a match between Meg and Brooke and threatens
to cut off Meg without a penny. Meg politely defies her and accepts Brooke’s proposal.
Scene 6
The March family gathers on Meg’s wedding day. Meg and Brooke appear
together, contrary to convention, and ask to use the same marriage vows that Alma
and Gideon used, which they wrote themselves. The Marches begin to teach their
old vows to the new bride and groom, accompanied by Beth on piano. Meanwhile,
Laurie has arrived, and inspired by the beauty of the music, suddenly asks Jo to
marry him. She emphatically rejects his proposal. Laurie rushes out, and Amy, who is
secretly in love with him, follows. Beth, who has been ill, collapses in a faint.
Act II
Scene 1
Jo has moved to a boarding house in New York City to pursue her career as a
writer and to give Laurie time to cool off.
Scene 2
Corresponding with her family, Jo recounts her experiences in New York and
receives news from home: Meg and Brooke are the proud parents of twins, Amy is
traveling in England, Beth is bedridden, and Laurie is studying at Oxford. Gideon
wants to know more about a certain Friedrich Bhaer, a German immigrant and
professor of philosophy who wants to take Jo to the opera.
Scene 3
Jo and Bhaer have just returned from the opera. They linger in the hallway of
their boarding house, not wanting to say goodnight. Meanwhile, in London, Amy
is sketching Laurie in a park. As rain threatens, Amy and Laurie exit, hand in hand.
In New York, Jo is on the verge of accepting Bhaer’s friendship and love into her
life when she is abruptly informed that Beth is not expected to live. Jo immediately
returns home.
Scene 4
The family is gathered around Beth’s sickbed when Jo arrives. Beth asks
everyone to leave them alone together. Beth senses what is about to happen and
makes Jo promise to care for their parents. The family mourns Beth’s passing together.
Scene 5
Aunt Cecilia offers a letter for Jo to read: Amy and Laurie have been married.
This news crushes Jo. Aunt Cecilia announces her plan to leave Jo her gated stone
mansion and all its furnishings, representing a life without change, perfect, ordered.
“Essentially dead,” replies Jo and rejects this future life.
Scene 6
Jo is alone, writing, as in the beginning. Laurie enters, asking Jo’s forgiveness
and wondering if things “can go back to the happy old times.” Jo responds with a
firm “no.” She sends Laurie off to his bride and calls up her visions of the past one
last time. Her sisters emerge, young, golden, and beautiful. Jo embraces each one and
gives them her blessing as they fade away. At that moment, Friedrich Bhaer enters.
He has come to Concord to see her under the guise of having business in town. “Is
now a good moment?” he asks. “Now is all there is,” Jo answers, extending her hand.
Program Notes
by Laura Dallman
Shortly after its première with the Houston Grand Opera in 1998, Mark Adamo’s
Little Women was hailed as a stunning success. Several critics predicted that the opera would
become a standard of the operatic literature, and, with over 60 performances to date in the
United States, Europe, Mexico, and Japan, Little Women seems poised to make that prediction
come true.
Adamo’s adaptation of Louisa May Alcott’s nineteenth-century novel condenses several
of the story’s more poignant episodes into a few compact scenes. Throughout the course of
the opera, Jo relives several moments of her life where impending events threaten to alter
her family dynamics. Wishing to avoid change, Jo struggles with the passage of time, often
lashing out against those she loves most. This contrasts with Alcott’s depiction of Jo, who
spends the majority of the novel trying to master her “dreadful temper” and learn the virtues
of self-restraint and patience.
Drawing upon the tradition of reminiscence motives in the operas of Donizetti and
Verdi, which can identify a character or signify a recollection of the past, Adamo associates
two motives with Jo and her reluctance to accept change. The first motive, which is indicated
by Adamo as the “stability” motive, fluidly descends and then ascends and is often paired
with the words “perfect as we are.” Jo hints at this motive at the beginning of the prologue
with the words “the happy, happy band” (the band referring to herself and her sisters), but the
motive does not appear in its full form until the end of the first scene. Here, Jo addresses an
absent Laurie, exclaiming the four sisters are “perfect as we are.” From this moment onward,
the stability motive signifies Jo’s confrontation with change and desire for constancy. For
instance, when Meg assures Jo she does not intend to accept Brooke’s proposal in Act I, scene
ii, the motive appears with Meg’s words “let us but continue as before.” In the next scene,
when Jo refuses Laurie’s proposal of marriage, she uses the motive to exclaim again that she
and Laurie are already “perfect as we are.” In Act II, scene i, the stability motive serves a
slightly different purpose. As Jo and her family write letters to each other, each person pairs
the motive with the words “write soon, write soon,” suggesting that though the members of
the family are far apart, they still provide a sense of constancy and strength for each other.
A second motive, marked by several large melodic leaps, often anticipates the
forthcoming shifts that Jo wishes to avoid. This “change” motive appears in its purest form
in Act I, scene ii, after Meg unexpectedly accepts Brooke’s proposal. Trying to soothe Jo, who
is infuriated by her sister’s acceptance, Meg sings “things change, Jo, things change.” Near
the end of the next scene Laurie uses the change motive to plead for Jo’s hand, declaring that
“things change, Jo, between us.” Before he can finish, though, Jo interrupts his proposal with
an ardent request to “let us but continue as before” (the stability motive). At the beginning
of Act II, when Laurie tentatively approaches Amy with a similar declaration, she does not
cut him off; instead she completes his initiation of the change motive with the words “And
a good thing, too!”
Act II also contains statements of the change and stability motives that may indicate that
Jo herself is changing. She actually sings the change motive in the second scene when she tells
Professor Bhaer that their trip to the opera was the most fun she has had “since I left home,”
thus foreshadowing the role the professor will take. In the fourth and penultimate scene, Aunt
Cecilia alters Jo’s stability motive, adding a series of quick, melodic leaps to the originally
fluid phrase (“You alone / a mansion of stone / Gated with steel”). As Aunt Cecilia attempts
to convince Jo that being alone is best, Jo realizes that she does not desire a solitary life. She
recognizes that if she remains unwilling to embrace change, her life will become bitter and
cold, and she excuses herself from the scene.
During the final moments of the opera, it becomes clear that Jo has taken a journey
through her memories in order to understand and accept the necessity of change. Jo returns
to where she began, greeting Laurie as she did in the Prologue but now with a lighter and
happier heart. Embracing the memories of her sisters one last time, she accepts that change
is inevitable, and in the last moments of the opera, she extends the final note of the stability
motive upward (“Now is all there is”), eagerly opening the door to the future.
