Nei primi anni della mia Raccolta, mi vedevo guardato con un sorrisetto di compatimento non scevro d’ironia... in attesa che la fede e la tenacia mi dessero ragione perché io invece venivo sempre più convincendomi che il libretto aveva pur la sua importanza, anche prescindendo dai difetti letterari e poetici. E continuavo a raccogliere, fiducioso... Ebbi così la soddisfazione di convincermi che non avevo lavorato invano e che la mia tenacia, la mia pazienza, la mia fede avevano avuto ragione della noncuranza, dell’incredulità, dell’ironia di tanti!

L'opera I (Seicento E Settecento)
L’opera I (Seicento e Settecento) (modulo 103) Luca Zoppelli Università di Lecce e di Friburgo Ultima modifica 24 Febbraio 2003 ICoN – Italian Culture on the Net Luca Zoppelli – L’opera I (Seicento e Settecento) Presentazione Il modulo è dedicato al teatro musicale italiano e alla sua diffusione come sistema europeo, a partire dall’invenzione del genere operistico nella Firenze di fine Cinquecento, sino agli eventi storici di fine Settecento, che ne alterano largamente la fisionomia. La trattazione segue il mutare dei caratteri drammaturgici e stilistici del genere in relazione ai contesti ed agli ambienti produttivi che hanno visto svilupparsi dapprima la favola per musica cortigiana, poi l’opera pubblica di tipo veneziano, infine - nel Settecento - l’opera seria e quella comica. Si prendono in considerazione, inoltre, alcune delle più rilevanti questioni di ordine estetico sollevate dagli osservatori contemporanei a proposito del teatro musicale. Nel modulo si citano alcune scene tratte da opere di particolare rilievo storico ed artistico per individuare e descrivere alcuni procedimenti drammatici, letterari e musicali. Sebbene il modulo non sia concepito come una galleria di monografie dedicate a singoli compositori, questi esempi consentono anche di tracciare brevi profili stilistici di alcune figure particolarmente importanti, come Monteverdi, Händel o Mozart. 2 ICoN – Italian Culture on the Net Luca Zoppelli – L’opera I (Seicento e Settecento) Guida al modulo Scopo del modulo Il modulo intende fornire una conoscenza generale dello sviluppo dell’opera italiana, anche nel suo spazio europeo, durante i secoli XVII e XVIII. L’esame delle condizioni sociali e produttive spiegherà i caratteri e i mutamenti estetici e drammaturgici del genere. -
Opera Lirica , È Lo Spettacolo in Cui La Recitazione Teatrale Si Svolge Attraverso Il Canto E La Musica
IL MELODRAMMA Il melodramma , detto anche opera lirica , è lo spettacolo in cui la recitazione teatrale si svolge attraverso il canto e la musica. Nacque alla fine del XVI sec. a Firenze dove un gruppo di letterati e musicisti, la cosiddetta Camerata de’ Bardi , creò uno spettacolo in cui parole e musica davano voce a storie mitologiche, a vicende eroiche e drammatiche. Per rendere più comprensibili le parole del testo inventarono uno stile vocale che era a mezza via tra il canto e la recitazione: il recitar cantando . L'anno della vera e propria nascita del melodramma fu il primo anno del nuovo secolo, il 1600, anno in cui a Firenze, si rappresentò l'opera “Euridice” di Giulio Caccini. Ma il primo vero protagonista del melodramma fu senz’altro Claudio Monteverdi nel suo “Orfeo”, messo in scena nel 1607, si assistette al crescere dell’importanza dell’orchestra e del canto rispetto alle parti recitate e quindi alla netta distinzione fra recitativo e aria . Da Firenze questo nuovo stile musicale si diffuse a poco a poco in altre città, sempre nei palazzi principeschi e per un pubblico colto e aristocratico: l'allestimento di un'opera comportava infatti preparativi complessi e molto dispendiosi. Nel 1637, a Venezia, fu aperto il primo teatro a pagamento, il San Cassiano, e finalmente anche le persone di ceto medio poterono assistere alla rappresentazione di un melodramma. Il pubblico accorse numeroso e dimostrò di gradire molto questo tipo di spettacolo. In conseguenza di questo successo altri teatri furono aperti in varie città italiane, in particolare a Roma. -

Verdian Musicodramatic Expression in Un Ballo in Maschera
VERDIAN MUSICODRAMATIC EXPRESSION IN UN BALLO IN MASCHERA A RESEARCH PAPER SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE MASTERS OF MUSIC BY JERRY POLMAN DR. CRAIG PRIEBE – ADVISER BALL STATE UNIVERSITY MUNCIE, INDIANA JULY 2010 | 1 On September 19, 1857, Giuseppe Verdi wrote to the impresario at San Carlo that he was “in despair.” He was commissioned to write an opera for the 1858 carnival season but could not find what he deemed a suitable libretto. For many years he desired to compose an opera based on Shakespeare‟s King Lear but he deemed the singers in Naples to be inadequate for the task. Nevertheless, he writes in the same letter that he is now “…condensing a French drama, Gustave III di Svezia, libretto by Scribe, given at the [Paris Grand Opéra with music by Auber] about twenty years ago [1833]. It is grand and vast; it is beautiful; but this too has the conventional forms of all works for music, something which I have never liked and I now find unbearable. I repeat, I am in despair, because it is too late to find other subjects.”1 Despite finding it “unbearable” Verdi continued to work on Gustave, calling on the talents of Antonia Somma to write the libretto. However, Verdi did not foresee the intense scrutiny that would be leveled against it. Upon receiving word from Vincenzo Torelli (the impresario of the San Carlo Opera House), that nothing less than a new production would suffice to fulfill his contract, Verdi and Somma set to work immediately on Gustave. -

Carlo Goldoni As Musical Reformer
CARLO GOLDONI AS MUSICAL REFORMER IN SEARCH OF REALISM IN THE DRAMMA GIOCOSO La vraisemblance doit toujours être la principale règle, et sans laquelle toutes les autres deviennent déréglées. -l’Abbé d’Aubignac, La Pratique du Théâtre by Pervinca Rista Dissertation submitted to the Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Baltimore, Maryland March 18, 2015 © Pervinca Rista All Rights Reserved Abstract Venetian playwright Carlo Goldoni (1707-1793), who is best remembered in literary history for his realist ‘reform’ of comic theatre, was also a prolific librettist. In particular, his texts for music written from 1748 onwards remain understudied but warrant significant reappraisal, for Goldoni was one of the first to give shape to the dramma giocoso, an innovative and realistic new genre of opera that went on to have a lasting legacy all the way to W. A. Mozart and Lorenzo da Ponte. Through an interdisciplinary, historical approach and intertextual analysis, the present study reevaluates Goldoni’s drammi giocosi, largely overlooked by scholarship, to uncover the lasting innovations in form and content introduced by the Venetian playwright. Analysis of these texts also reveals clear affinity between Goldoni's contributions to the dramma giocoso and his reform of prose theatre. Most importantly, unlike other types of comic opera, the dramma giocoso has the particularity of combining buffo with serio, a dynamic that, through Goldoni's mature output, continually evolves to bring new realism and social relevance to opera theatre. Goldoni’s influence on this type of musical representation has not been fully considered, but the realism in music that he achieves through the dramma giocoso must be acknowledged as a lasting contribution to modern literature, and to operatic history.
