Caffarelli pt3 VOIX-DES-ARTS.COM, 21_09_2013 http://www.voix-des-arts.com/2013/09/cd-review-arias-for-caffarelli-franco.html 21 September 2013 CD REVIEW: ARIAS FOR CAFFARELLI (Franco Fagioli, countertenor; Naïve V 5333) PASQUALE CAFARO (circa 1716 – 1787) JOHANN ADOLF HASSE (1699 – 1783), LEONARDO LEO (1694 – 1744), GENNARO MANNA (1715 – 1779), GIOVANNI BATTISTA PERGOLESI (1710 – 1736), NICOLA ANTONIO PORPORA (1686 – 1768), DOMENICO SARRO (1679 – 1744), and LEONARDO VINCI (1690 – 1730): Arias for Caffarelli—Franco Fagioli, countertenor; Il Pomo d’Oro; Riccardo Minasi [Recorded at the Villa San Fermo, Convento dei Pavoniani, Lonigo, Vicenza, Italy, 25 August – 3 September 2012; Naïve V 5333; 1CD, 78:31; Available from Amazon, fnac, JPC, and all major music retailers] If contemporary accounts of his demeanor can be trusted, Gaetano Majorano—born in 1710 in Bitonto in the Puglia region of Italy and better known to history as Caffarelli—could have given the most arrogant among the opera singers of the 21st Century pointers on enhancing their self-appreciation. Unlike many of his 18th-Century rivals, Caffarelli enjoyed a certain level of privilege, his boyhood musical studies financed by the profits of two vineyards devoted to his tuition by his grandmother. Perhaps most remarkable, especially in comparison with other celebrated castrati who invented elaborate tales of childhood illnesses and unfortunate encounters with unfriendly animals to account for their ‘altered’ states, is the fact that, having been sufficiently impressed by the quality of his puerile voice or convinced thereof by the praise of his tutors, Caffarelli volunteered himself for castration. It is suggested that his most influential teacher, Porpora, with whom Farinelli also studied, was put off by Caffarelli’s arrogance but regarded him as the most talented of his pupils, reputedly having pronounced the castrato the greatest singer in Europe—a sentiment legitimately expressive of Porpora’s esteem for Caffarelli, perhaps, and surely a fine advertisement for his own services as composer and teacher. -

Instead, I have preferred to turn the spotlight on the careers of other castrati who are less well known to the general public, as I did for Carestini a few years ago. Since then, having had the opportunity to give concert performances of arias written for Farinelli, I found that they suited me far better than I could have imagined – particu lar ly those written by Nicola Porpora (1686-1768), known in his time not only as a composer, but also as one of the greatest singing teachers. I soon became interested in the master-pupil relationship that could have existed between Porpora and Farinelli. Despite the lack of historical sources, we can presume that Farinelli was still a child when he first met Porpora, and that the composer’s views had a strong bearing on the decision to castrate the young prodigy. -

Brochure De La Saison 2021-2022
Les Talens Lyriques Les Talens Lyriques ont 30 ans ! ui, nous célébrerons cet anniversaire coûte que coûte. O Quelle longévité ! Je ne l’aurais moi-même jamais espé- rée. Comment m’imaginer diriger tant d’opéras, italiens et français, comment imaginer Les Talens à l’opéra de Sydney, de Versailles ou de Drottningholm, comment aurais-je pu me voir diriger du Berlioz, du Verdi, du Gounod ? Ma grande satisfaction est d’avoir tenu ma ligne entre la France et l’Italie, d’avoir pu éviter l’effet pour l’effet, d’avoir pris des risques avec les trompettistes mais aussi les cornistes et autres aventuriers du baroque pour retrouver les techniques et les sonorités « justes ». Je ne rougis d’aucune eau dans le vin que je respecte trop pour l’édulcorer. Cette saison marquera aussi nos 15 ans d’actions pédagogiques dans les écoles et les collèges. Aujourd’hui, les partenariats se transforment et se multiplient, de nou- veaux projets se développent dans ce souci de transmis- sion qui m’est si cher. Bien sûr, tous ces accomplissements ne seraient pos- sibles sans l’aide de nos partenaires qui nous soutiennent fidèlement depuis de nombreuses années. Sans eux, Les Talens Lyriques n’auraient pu mener à bien tous ces beaux projets. Qu’ils en soient ici très chaleureusement remerciés. Et merci à vous cher public pour votre présence pas- sionnée à nos côtés depuis toutes ces années. Vous me manquez, et j’ai hâte de vous retrouver ! Et maintenant : que la fête commence ! Cette saison justement rassemble ce qui est le cœur de notre vocation : 3 beaucoup d’opéras, surtout méconnus ; de la musique de chambre (car le claveciniste que je suis tient à rester aussi chambriste) ; des récitals de jeunes chanteurs (car découvrir de nouveaux talents est aussi notre marque de fabrique) ; et des incursions dans le romantisme. -

Y, de pronto, cesaron los martillazos y afinaciones, se hizo un gran silencio y, en el puesto de director, vestido de negro, violín en mano, apareció el Preste Antonio, más flaco y narigudo que nunca […] Metido en lo suyo, sin volverse para mirar a las pocas personas que, aquí, allá, se habían colocado en el teatro, abrió lentamente un manuscrito, alzó el arco —como aquella noche— y, en doble papel de director y de ejecutante impar, dio comienzo a la sinfonía, más agitada y ritmada —acaso— que otras sinfonías suyas de sosegado tempo, y se abrió el telón sobre un estruendo de color… Alejo Carpentier, Concierto barroco ÍNDICE PRÓLOGO . 11 INTRODUCCIÓN . 13 PARTE I 1.

Mccallum Fine Arts Academy Orchestra 2009 Master Class: the Neapolitan Masters
McCallum Fine Arts Academy Orchestra 2009 Master Class: The Neapolitan Masters Presented by: The Neapolitan Music Society Sponsored by: DUGAN Foundation McCallum Fine Arts Academy Orchestra Master Class 2009: The Neapolitan Masters This fall, the Neapolitan Music Society (NMS) will bring the great Neapolitan Masters back to the McCallum Fine Arts Academy Chamber Orchestra, one of the finest student orchestras in Texas and the southwest. This exciting program of extended study, rehearsal, and performance will immerse the academy’s advanced music students in the history and music of the Naples conservatories, which were the best music academies of their day. The effort will be personally lead by Mº Gioacchino Longobardi (Albany, NY), NMS President & Artistic Director, who will conduct the McCallum Chamber Orchestra. Mº Alberto Vitolo (Rome, Italy), the Society’s Assistant Artistic Director, will provide the students with personal instruction in the rare and beautiful string techniques that produced the famous Sound of Naples. Rounding out the week, Professor Robert Gjerdingen of Northwestern University and the Society’s music historian, will introduce the students to the rich history of Neapolitan music and the conservatories. In its second year, this collaborative program will involve a week of rehearsals and classroom instruction in music theory and history, culminating in a concert performance with the McCallum Chamber Orchestra under the direction of Mº Gioacchino Longobardi. The purpose of the project is to introduce the advanced music students of the McCallum Fine Arts Academy – through an intensive one-week curriculum of study, music theory, rehearsal and performance --to the 18th Century Neapolitan Masters. -

@AEConservatoire #EPARM2019 AEC European Platform for Artistic Research in Music EPARM 2019 Welcome to Cluj! @AEConservatoire #EPARM2019 Opening Event Musical Introduction Transylvanian Quartet • Gabriel Croitoru – First violin • Nicușor Silaghi – Second violin • Marius Suărășan – Viola • Vasile Jucan – Cello @AEConservatoire #EPARM2019 Opening Event Official Welcome by: Vasile Jucan Rector of the Gheorghe Dima National Music Academy @AEConservatoire #EPARM2019 Distinguished Guests, Esteemed Audience, Dear Colleagues, I take great pleasure in welcoming you to the opening of the European Platform for Artistic Research in Music Conference. I hereby greet the famous representatives of the Association Européenne des Conservatoires, the organizer of this event. Research and innovation currently embody an important facet of the musical field as well; basically, all professions are affected, directly or indirectly, by the development of artistic research. This remarkable reunion gathers together all the key representatives from Europe, North America and Australia, united by the common topic of the particularly dynamic frame provided by the musical field. Personally, I am delighted by the speed at which things have progressed lately. The topic of the event hosted by our institution mirrors the growing importance of artistic research as well as the importance of maturing and providing accurate information to musicians. Gheorghe Dima Academy carries on its activity in the historical capital of Transylvania, Cluj-Napoca, a respected academic centre within the scientific community; a Jesuit college functioned in the city as early as 1581, the first higher education institution founded on the present-day territory of Romania. @AEConservatoire #EPARM2019 Institutional music education dates back to 1819 when the “Music Society from Cluj” (Kolozsvári Muzsikai Egyesület) was founded; in 1837, the society became a Music Conservatory (Kolozsvári Zenekonzervatórium) with lectures being given in German and later on in Hungarian.
