  • Verdi's Macbeth
    Verdi’s Macbeth - A Survey of the Major Recordings by Ralph Moore Although Macbeth was still a product of his anni di galera, Verdi was able to expend more time, care and effort over it than he had had for his previous operas, working closely with Piave, his first librettist, then the poet Maffei to ensure that the spirit and even precisely some of the language (translated into Italian, obviously) of his beloved Shakespeare infused the work, and giving his singers close instructions regarding how he wanted it performed. As such, it was a watershed opera, representing a great leap forward in both his music and dramaturgy. He had the further advantage of a star baritone playing the lead role; Felice Varesi enjoyed the greatest success of his career at its premiere in 1847. As a result, despite some stylistic infelicities and a certain incongruity between the earlier, rum-ti-tum style of its original form and the sophistication of the later additions, Macbeth, having largely dropped out of sight until it was revived post WW2, is now deservedly popular and frequently staged. It is today almost invariably heard in the revision which Verdi made for Paris in 1864. One live performance and one studio recording below present the 1847 original; the latter is included here merely for its comedy value. There is also a recording of a live performance given at the Valle d'Itria Festival, Martina Franca in 1997 which I have not heard but by all accounts is not as well sung as the 1978 live recording on Opera Rara.

  • Performing Arts Industry a Look Back, a Peek Ahead in the Introduction Whew
    December 2012 THE YEAR PERFORMING ARTS INDUSTRY A Look Back, A Peek Ahead in the Introduction Whew. What a year. One orchestra emerges from bankruptcy while others struggle to function within outdated models; one hugely expensive Ring cycle is declared the disaster of the century, while another far less pricey one triumphs.

El Sistema spreads like the best of wildfires to turn an entire generation of disadvantaged youngsters into mini virtuosos and confident, up-standing CONTENTS citizens.
