Antonio Salieri's Revenge
Antonio Salieri’s Revenge newyorker.com/magazine/2019/06/03/antonio-salieris-revenge By Alex Ross 1/13 Many composers are megalomaniacs or misanthropes. Salieri was neither. Illustration by Agostino Iacurci On a chilly, wet day in late November, I visited the Central Cemetery, in Vienna, where 2/13 several of the most familiar figures in musical history lie buried. In a musicians’ grove at the heart of the complex, Beethoven, Schubert, and Brahms rest in close proximity, with a monument to Mozart standing nearby. According to statistics compiled by the Web site Bachtrack, works by those four gentlemen appear in roughly a third of concerts presented around the world in a typical year. Beethoven, whose two-hundred-and-fiftieth birthday arrives next year, will supply a fifth of Carnegie Hall’s 2019-20 season. When I entered the cemetery, I turned left, disregarding Beethoven and company. Along the perimeter wall, I passed an array of lesser-known but not uninteresting figures: Simon Sechter, who gave a counterpoint lesson to Schubert; Theodor Puschmann, an alienist best remembered for having accused Wagner of being an erotomaniac; Carl Czerny, the composer of piano exercises that have tortured generations of students; and Eusebius Mandyczewski, a magnificently named colleague of Brahms. Amid these miscellaneous worthies, resting beneath a noble but unpretentious obelisk, is the composer Antonio Salieri, Kapellmeister to the emperor of Austria. I had brought a rose, thinking that the grave might be a neglected and cheerless place. Salieri is one of history’s all-time losers—a bystander run over by a Mack truck of malicious gossip. -
Transcripts of Dramatic Musical Works in Full Score
TRANSCRIPTS OF DRAMATIC MUSICAL WORKS IN FULL SCORE AT THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS MUSIC DIVISION Compiled by Susan Clermont Senior Music Specialist Library of Congress Music Division A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF TRANSCRIPTS OF DRAMATIC MUSICAL WORKS IN FULL SCORE AT THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS This bibliography comprises close to 700 transcripts of dramatic musical works in full score copied from original music manuscripts and early imprints for the Library of Congress’s Music Division between 1903 and 1939. The original sources were located in over three dozen European libraries in Austria, Belgium, France, Great Britain, Germany, Hungary, Italy and Russia. The majority of the operas cited in this document date from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries; about fifteen percent are reproductions of nineteenth-century works. Also included in this bibliography are transcripts of incidental music for dramas, melodramas, ballets, and pantomimes (see Appendix B). Finally, Appendix C comprises a short list of instrumental works, mostly for viola da gamba, that were transcribed over a two-year period when the parameters of this project were provisionally broadened. In 1902, a new set of guidelines for the systematic development of the newly-reorganized Music Division’s collections was instituted: opera immediately received a considerable share of attention because, “the peculiar condition of opera in the United States seemed to demand that a center of reference and research be created for the students of opera.” [Oscar Sonneck, Dramatic Music: Catalogue of Full Scores…, 1908] Accordingly, a series of “want lists” were compiled; however, when it was determined after a comprehensive search that hundreds of items included on the Music Division’s desiderata list for operas in full score were unprocurable in manuscript or print versions, the option of contracting copyists to generate transcripts was explored. -
Une Histoire De La Réception De La Donna Del Lago Au Théâtre Royal Italien De 1824 À 1848
6 « Fatale expérience » ou « fête pour le public des Italiens » ? Une histoire de la réception de La donna del lago au Théâtre royal Italien de 1824 à 1848 a donna del lago connaît cent treize représentations au Théâtre royal Italien entre 1824 et 1848. À cela s’ajoutent onze représentations séparées de l’acte II. C’est L donc bien, si l’on en croit les contemporains, « un opéra de répertoire »1. Cette expression ne désigne pas une réalité harmonieuse dont le secret tiendrait à la perfection de l’œuvre elle-même. Elle procède d’une construction dans le temps, au fil des attentes, des colères et des bonheurs du public vis-à-vis des artistes et de l’administration. C’est donc sous la plume même des contemporains que l’on peut faire émerger les grands enjeux d’une histoire de la réception de La donna del lago au Théâtre-Italien. Bien sûr, il serait difficile, impossible même, de retracer ici toute cette histoire. Notre premier choix consistera donc à nous interroger plus longuement sur la création, décisive pour saisir les éléments qui reviendront par la suite de façon récurrente. Notre second choix sera de privilégier, non pas la musique de l’opéra telle que la reçoivent les spectateurs parisiens, mais les questions de scénographie et d’interprétation. Les raisons justifiant cette approche constituent aussi les deux enjeux de notre propos. Le premier tient à la partition même de l’opéra, à son exigence première : la présence simultanée de trois premiers chanteurs, un soprano, un ténor, et un contralto. -

Musikalisches Lustspiel in three acts by ANTONIO SALIERI to a libretto by JOSEPH LEOPOLD AUENBRUGGER ; Vienna, Burgtheater, 30 April 1781. As the playful subtitle suggests, the opera is in the spirit of those late 18th-century Italian comic operas that deal with conflict between social classes. Volpino (tenor), an Italian chimney-sweep, is engaged to Lisel (soprano), a cook in the house of the young widow Frau von Habicht (soprano). Frau von Habicht and her daughter Nannette (soprano) are the objects of amorous advances by the impoverished noblemen Herr von Bär (bass) and Herr von Wölf (tenor). Volpino puts into action an elaborate trick that promises to result in a dowry for him and Lisel. With his musical skills he charms both mother and daughter into falling in love with him; then to Bär and Wölf he proposes to reject the two women in exchange for a handsome dowry. After a suitable amount of confusion and misunderstanding, his plan is successful and all the principal characters are happily engaged. Salieri composed this opera at the command of Joseph II for performance by his German troupe, which included Caterina Cavalieri (who sang the role of Nannette) and Ludwig Fischer (Herr von Bär), but it is in many ways more Italian than German: both libretto and music resemble an opera buffa more than a north German Singspiel. -

Antonio Salieri 18
ANTONIO SALIERI 18. 8. 1750 – 7. 5. 1825 „Promluvím za všechny pr ůměrné na sv ětě, já jsem jejich šampión, jejich svatý patron.“ Nezapomenutelná scéna na konci Formanova filmu Amadeus ! V ěta, kterou říká „génius pr ůměrnosti“, Antonio Salieri, protihrá č Wolfganga Amadea Mozarta, shrnuje um ělecké poselství filmu, konfrontaci geniality a pr ůměrnosti. Byl Salieri zamindrákovaný intrikán, který trp ěl božským nadáním svého vrstevníka a který byl k jeho zni čení schopen použít všechny dostupné prost ředky a neštítil se ani vraždy? Jaký byl ve skute čnosti jeho život a p ředevším jeho tvorba? Hudební skladatel, dirigent a pedagog Antonio Salieri se narodil 18. srpna 1750 v italském Legnanu u Verony jako osmé dít ě v rodin ě obchodníka. Základy hudebního vzd ělání získal u svého o t řináct let staršího bratra Francesca, který jej vyu čoval h ře na housle, cembalo i zp ěvu, pozd ěji bral lekce klavíru u dómského varhaníka. V 15 letech osi řel. Do opatrovnictví jej p řijala významná a bohatá rodina v Benátkách a poskytla mu velkou podporu v dalším hudebním vzd ělání. Studoval zp ěv a harmonii u G. Pescettiho. Při návšt ěvě Benátek v roce 1766 rozpoznal jeho slibný talent víde ňský skladatel Florian Leopold Gassmann a odvedl šestnáctiletého Salieriho do Vídn ě. Postaral se o jeho další vzd ělávání a uvedl jej do spole čnosti. Salieri poznal významného operního reformátora Ch. W. Glucka, který se stal jeho mecenášem a p řítelem. První Salieriho opera Le donne letterate (Vzd ělané dámy, 1770) se do čkala nadšeného p řijetí. Po smrti Gassmanna v roce 1774 získal Salieri ve 24 letech titul dvorního skladatele a zárove ň byl jmenován kapelníkem italské opery ve Vídni. -
