And this is a requirement that art repeatedly demands, too. The mysterious Tmetamorphosis of the ugly caterpillar into the magnificent butterfly has sti- mulated man’s imagination from time immemorial. Everyone who watches Where does a butterfly is struck by its beauty, elegance and lightness. The ancient ability to think in images and symbols is inside each one of us – and in the world of opera, too. The opera is a treasure-house of the music call the tune? irrational. It unfolds “our imagination’s most beautiful alternative world.” Mozart himself confessed, “I need only to hear talk about opera, I need only to be in the theatre and hear voices – it suffices to transport me utterly.” The Theater an der Wien, the new opera house, is aiding a development in our city that no one can now fail to notice: more and more people with an interest in culture, and younger people too, are going to the opera! They are looking for a space where dreams and longings can unfold freely with great emotion and even pathos – and the opera provides a meeting place for them: everything appears bathed in “bright” light, and in this light one is drawn in by enchanting sounds.

  • French Stewardship of Jazz: the Case of France Musique and France Culture
    ABSTRACT Title: FRENCH STEWARDSHIP OF JAZZ: THE CASE OF FRANCE MUSIQUE AND FRANCE CULTURE Roscoe Seldon Suddarth, Master of Arts, 2008 Directed By: Richard G. King, Associate Professor, Musicology, School of Music The French treat jazz as “high art,” as their state radio stations France Musique and France Culture demonstrate. Jazz came to France in World War I with the US army, and became fashionable in the 1920s—treated as exotic African- American folklore. However, when France developed its own jazz players, notably Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli, jazz became accepted as a universal art. Two well-born Frenchmen, Hugues Panassié and Charles Delaunay, embraced jazz and propagated it through the Hot Club de France. After World War II, several highly educated commentators insured that jazz was taken seriously. French radio jazz gradually acquired the support of the French government. This thesis describes the major jazz programs of France Musique and France Culture, particularly the daily programs of Alain Gerber and Arnaud Merlin, and demonstrates how these programs display connoisseurship, erudition, thoroughness, critical insight, and dedication. France takes its “stewardship” of jazz seriously. FRENCH STEWARDSHIP OF JAZZ: THE CASE OF FRANCE MUSIQUE AND FRANCE CULTURE By Roscoe Seldon Suddarth Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Maryland, College Park, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts 2008 Advisory Committee: Associate Professor Richard King, Musicology Division, Chair Professor Robert Gibson, Director of the School of Music Professor Christopher Vadala, Director, Jazz Studies Program © Copyright by Roscoe Seldon Suddarth 2008 Foreword This thesis is the result of many years of listening to the jazz broadcasts of France Musique, the French national classical music station, and, to a lesser extent, France Culture, the national station for literary, historical, and artistic programs.

Association Agôn et les auteurs des articles Modèle « Le théâtre à travers la musique » 1 Modèle « Le théâtre à travers la musique » Entretien avec Laurent Pelly Laurent Pelly et Florent Siaud NOTE DE L’ÉDITEUR Vienne, janvier 2009 1 « Maeterlinck a travaillé aux confins de la poésie et du silence, au minimum de la voix, dans la sonorité des eaux dormantes », écrit Bachelard dans L’eau et les rêves1. Cet éloge du silence que constitue Pelléas et Mélisande n’a pas empêché Debussy de le mettre en musique au tournant des XIXe et XXe siècles. Loin d’avoir été trahie, la pièce du poète belge a trouvé dans les moires du compositeur français un écho magistral à son étrange dramaturgie. Au cours des vingt dernières années, Antoine Vitez, Pierre Strosser, Peter Stein, Robert Wilson et Olivier Py ont proposé des visions majeures de cet opéra : de Salzbourg à Moscou, en passant par la Scala de Milan, le Staatsoper de Vienne ou l’Opéra de Paris, ces metteurs en scènes ont posé sur les brumes du royaume d’Allemonde des regards aussi différents que nécessaires.

  • De L'opéra À La Chanson
    1 NATALIE DESSAY De l’opéra à la chanson 1 « Si Harpo Marx était né sous l’étoile d’une soprano colorature, il aurait été Natalie Dessay. Car aucune Fille dans La Fille du Régiment n’a été aussi comique. Par contre, il est difficile d’imaginer, 2 depuis Maria Callas, une soprano plus dramatique en Lucia ou plus hypnotique dans La Sonnambula. Tragédienne ou Comédienne, Natalie a régné en souveraine dans notre théâtre. » Peter Gelb Directeur du Metropolitan Opera - New York “If Harpo Marx had been born a coloratura soprano, he would have been Natalie Dessay. As the Daughter in The Daughter of the Regiment, no soprano has ever been physically funnier. But for that matter, it is hard to imagine any soprano since Callas to be more dramatic in Lucia or more hypnotic in La Sonnambula. When it comes to both tragedy and comedy, Natalie has reigned supreme on our stage.” Peter Gelb General Manager of the Metropolitan Opera House-New York City 2 LÉO DELIBES 1836-1891 VINCENZO BELLINI 1801-1835 1 Les Filles de Cadix, chanson espagnole. 4.42 7 La Sonnambula : Ah! non credea mirarti...

  • Biography Natalie Dessay-Sony-Music-Masterworks
    A consummate and many-faceted artist, soprano Natalie Dessay has enjoyed a long and exceptional career, constantly diversifying and renewing her repertoire – from dazzling coloratura to tragic lyric roles, from the fireworks of Mozart’s Magic Flute and Donizetti’s Daughter of the Regiment to the most heart-rending and fragile melodies françaises. Born in Lyon, she discovered her voice in Bordeaux while pursuing her dream of becoming a dancer. In 1992 she made her debut at L’Opéra Bastille singing the role of Olympia in Offenbach’s Tales of Hoffmann. Since then she has appeared regularly on many of the world’s leading opera stages, among them L’Opéra National de Paris, Royal Opera House Covent Garden, Metropolitan Opera New York, Theater an der Wien & Staatsoper Vienna and La Scala Milan, winning universal international acclaim for her performances in Lakmé (Delibes), Ariane auf Naxos & Arabella (Strauss), Orpheus in the Underworld (Offenbach), The Nightingale (Stravinsky), Alcina (Handel), Manon (Massenet), Pelléas et Mélisande (Debussy), Lucia di Lammermoor (Donizetti) and Il Somnambula (Bellini). Natalie Dessay is a regular collaborator with Michel Legrand and together they have performed all over the world. She is also a committed recital singer, frequently performing French melodies and German Lieder with Laurent Naouri, Maciej Pikulski or Philippe Cassard. In 2015 she revealed new depths of dramatic and rhetorical insight, making her debut as a narrator in performances of Howard Barkler’s monologue Und at the Théâtre Olympia in Tours, and in Paris at the Théâtre de l’Athénée. The project was so successful that it was revived at the Théâtre des Abbesses in Paris in May 2016.

  • Gautier Capuçon with Jérôme Ducros Gabriel Fauré Jules Massenet
    Gautier Capuçon with Jérôme Ducros Saturday, April 28, 2018 at 8:00pm This is the 828th concert in Koerner Hall Gautier Capuçon, cello Jérôme Ducros, piano PROGRAM Gabriel Fauré: Élégie, op. 24 Jules Massenet: “Méditation” from Thaïs Johannes Brahms: Cello Sonata No. 1 in E Minor, op. 38 I. Allegro non troppo II. Allegretto quasi Menuetto III. Allegro INTERMISSION Pyotr Il’yich Tchaikovsky: Andante cantabile in D Major Sergei Rachmaninov: Cello Sonata in G Minor, op. 19 I. Lento - Allegro moderato II. Allegro scherzando III. Andante IV. Allegro mosso Gabriel Fauré Born in Pamiers, Ariège, France, May 12, 1845; died in Paris, France, November 4, 1924 Élégie, op. 24 (1880) After successfully completing two chamber works, the First Violin Sonata and the Piano Quartet, French composer Gabriel Fauré turned his thoughts to a cello sonata, starting, as was his custom, with the slow movement. The resulting Élégie was first played privately. “My cello piece was very well received’, Fauré wrote to his publisher, “and that greatly encourages me to go on and finish the whole sonata.” Three years later, however, the elegantly sombre, at first inward-looking, later impassioned Élégie was published as a separate piece and it was to be almost four decades before Fauré composed the first of his two cello sonatas. Fauré subsequently orchestrated the Élégie in 1895. Its deeply sorrowful theme became the basis for an extended improvisation by the organist at Fauré’s state funeral in 1924. Jules Massenet Born in Montaud, Saint-Étienne, France, May 12, 1842; died in Paris, France, August 13, 1912 “Méditation” from Thaïs (1894) First performed at the Paris Opéra in March 1894, Thaïs is the 24th of French composer Jules Massenet’s three dozen operas.
