Par un heureux concours de circonstances historiques, Gluck eut la bonne fortune de travailler As a consequence of a specific historical set of avec les derniers contraltos de sa génération : non circumstances, Gluck had the good fortune to work seulement Gaetano Guadagni, mais encore Giovanni with the final alto singers of his generation: not only Carestini, Vittoria Tesi et de nombreux autres.

  • «Je Me Figurais Être Orphée», Wrote Countess Sophie Fersen After At- Tending a Performance of Christoph Gluck's Orpheus Oc
    Women in love: Gluck’s Orpheus as a source of romantic consolation in Vienna, Paris, and Stockholm JOHN A. RICE ABSTRACT Among those who witnessed early performances of Gluck’s Orfeo ed Euridice were Princess Isabelle of Parma, Julie de Lespinasse, and Countess Sophie Fersen. Orpheus, and the music Gluck wrote for him, stirred up similar responses in these passionate young women, all of whom found in the protagonist’s tragic plight consolation for own romantic yearning. This paper explores their emotio- nal states, as documented in their letters, and offers some explanations for their identification with a male character from Greek mythology, as brought to life by Gluck’s music and the men who sang it. «Je me figurais être Orphée», wrote Countess Sophie Fersen after at- tending a performance of Christoph Gluck’s Orpheus och Euridice in Stockholm in 1777. She was writing to a man with whom she had been involved in a brief and passionate love affair, and who had just left Sweden. Countess Fersen was not the only young woman who found romantic consolation in Gluck’s Orpheus. Already during the first run of performances in 1762, Princess Isabelle of Parma, recently married to Archduke (later Emperor) Joseph, wrote mournfully to her sister-in-law Marie Christine, whose company she much preferred to Joseph’s. Isabelle identified herself with Orpheus as a way of express- ing the depth and hopelessness of her love. And shortly after the première of the Paris version in 1774, Julie de Lespinasse wrote to her beloved Comte de Guibert, who was far from Paris, that she found a mixture of pain and pleasure in Gluck’s opera: «Je voudrois entendre dix fois par jour cet air qui me déchire, et qui me fait jouir de tout ce que je regrette: j’ai perdu mon Euridice».

  • A Countertenor's Reference Guide to Operatic Repertoire
    A COUNTERTENOR’S REFERENCE GUIDE TO OPERATIC REPERTOIRE Brad Morris A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC May 2019 Committee: Christopher Scholl, Advisor Kevin Bylsma Eftychia Papanikolaou © 2019 Brad Morris All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Christopher Scholl, Advisor There are few resources available for countertenors to find operatic repertoire. The purpose of the thesis is to provide an operatic repertoire guide for countertenors, and teachers with countertenors as students. Arias were selected based on the premise that the original singer was a castrato, the original singer was a countertenor, or the role is commonly performed by countertenors of today. Information about the composer, information about the opera, and the pedagogical significance of each aria is listed within each section. Study sheets are provided after each aria to list additional resources for countertenors and teachers with countertenors as students. It is the goal that any countertenor or male soprano can find usable repertoire in this guide. iv I dedicate this thesis to all of the music educators who encouraged me on my countertenor journey and who pushed me to find my own path in this field. v PREFACE One of the hardships while working on my Master of Music degree was determining the lack of resources available to countertenors. While there are opera repertoire books for sopranos, mezzo-sopranos, tenors, baritones, and basses, none is readily available for countertenors. Although there are online resources, it requires a great deal of research to verify the validity of those sources.

  • Le Cinesi. Revised Libretto by PIETRO METASTASIO, First Set by Nicola Conforto (1751 Aranjuez)
    Le cinesi. Revised libretto by PIETRO METASTASIO, first set by Nicola Conforto (1751 Aranjuez). The scene represents a room in the house of Lisinga, decorated in the Chinese manner, with a table and four chairs. Lisinga, Sivene, and Tangia sit together drinking tea in an attitude of total preoccupation. Silango, listens unseen from the partly open door. Lisinga, after observing each of her companions for some time, finally breaks the silence. Bored, three young Chinese women ponder how they might amuse themselves in a manner that would be enjoyable, innocent, and different. Tangia has fleeting thoughts on the matter but they come to nothing. Much to their chagrin, Silango enters to offer his opinion, but since this is a room strictly off-limits to men, reputations are at stake and he must leave – but best to delay until darkness offers its cover. Meanwhile, in spite of his recent travels in Europe, he must realize that he is no longer in France or Italy and must readjust to the customs of his native China. Lisinga suggests that as a group, they perform a dramatic piece. All three agree, but in turning to such a European pastime, each one favours a different genre. Lisinga opts for an heroic drama, while Sivene would have a pastoral and Tangia a comedy. Thus Silango proposes that each one perform a scene in her preferred style and they will adopt the one they consider to be the best. Since her companions hesitate, Lisinga takes the lead and as Andromache, widow of Hector, plays out a scene in which the life of their child, Astyanax, is threatened by Pyrrhus, unless she agree to marry him.

  • PRESSQUOTES Hanna-Liisa Kirchin
    PRESSQUOTES Hanna-Liisa Kirchin MEZZO SOPRANO Orfeo / Orfeo ed Euridice / Longborough Festival Opera / 2017 Cond. Jeremy Silver / Dir. Maria Jagusz “Her voice is fascinating: sweet and powerful, it had a plangent, matte finish that really did make her sound like something between a countertenor and a more conventional mezzo. In a role originally written for a castrato, and embodying a figure from myth, it was simultaneously strange and wonderfully fitting – heightened by the grace with which Kirchin walked the line between classical dignity and raw, wrenching pain.” (The Crtics’ Circle / Richard Bratby) “Hanna-Liisa Kirchin brings human nobility and ardour as Orfeo in lamenting the death of Euridice, which does not relent either as he undergoes the trial of leading her out of Hades whilst attempting to avoid the temptation of turning around to her, or in his final triumph." (Classicalsource / Curtis Rogers) “Hanna-Liisa Kirchin sang with heart on her sleeve emotion to carry the opera as Orfeo ... her ‘Che farò senza Euridice? was the grief-stricken highlight it must be.” (Seen & Heard International / Jim Pritchard) “As the mythic quester, Hanna-Liisa Kirchin displayed a mezzo which is not huge but which is sweet-toned and expressive. Interestingly, my guest remarked that at first he was uncertain whether Orfeo was being sung by a countertenor or a mezzo, for Kirchin’s voice does have an unusual colour - one which was most effective in a role initially taken by the castrato Gaetano Guadagni... Kirchin worked hard in ‘Che farò senza Euridice’: her voicing of loss was dignified and imbued with wrenching pain...” (Opera Today / Claire Seymour) "...and with a superb central performance as Orfeo movingly sung and acted by mezzo Hanna- Liisa Kirchin who clearly has a stellar career ahead of her.

  • Los Castrados
    LOS CASTRADOS “Mi querido niño [...] os diré con términos más insinuantes que debéis haceros pulir mediante una ligera operación, que os asegurará por mucho tiempo la delicadeza de vuestro cutis y la belleza de vuestra voz para toda la vida...” Charles de Saint-Evremond, 1685 Por Doña Juana La Loca Los castrados (castrati), evirados o i musicci, es como se denominó a aquellos niños a los que se les retiró los testículos antes de la pubertad, antes del desarrollo sexual secundario y que trajo consigo voces de una belleza sublime, los menos, así como infinidad de desgraciados infantes que fueron despreciados hasta el fin de sus días. En el siglo XVI, la iglesia no permitía que las mujeres cantaran en público y esto asociado a que los compositores de cámara empezaron a incluir complejas polifonías, en las cuales los niños empezaban a tener problemas para interpretarlas, ya que cuando todavía llegaban a los agudos no tenían la fuerza requerida y cuando adquirían esa fuerza durante la pubertad la ascensión al agudo se tornaba en sonidos galleados. El problema empezó a solucionarse con la traída, a la Capilla Sixtina, de españoles falsetistas, de los cuales se sospechaba que muchos de ellos eran ya castrados. Los rumores apuntaban a que ya hubo castrados en el coro de la iglesia de San Pedro de Roma desde 1533, pero fue a partir de 1589 cuando el papa Sixto V expidió una bula para la castración, pues cualquier tipo de mutilación estaba castigada por la propia iglesia salvo para salvar la vida, hecho que permitió la entrada de cuatro castrati a dicho coro.

  • Gluck: 300 Anos Do Reformador
    Gluck: 300 anos do reformador Em post recente, abordamos a primeira grande reforma da história da ópera, representada essencialmente por Pietro Metastasio (1698-1782). Dessa vez, aproveitando a comemoração dos 300 anos do compositor alemãoChristoph Willibald [Ritter von] Gluck (1714-1787), completados neste mês, comentaremos a segunda reforma na ópera, por ele conduzida. Maria Antonieta abriu as portas para a carreira de Gluck na França. Situando o mestre no tempo, Gluck fez parte de uma leva de artistas alemães “exportados” para Paris em meados do século XVIII, como Friedrich Melchior, o famoso Barão Grimm (1723-1807), e dominou a cena parisiense de 1774 a 1779, graças à proteção de uma ex-aluna, que se tornaria rainha da França: Maria Antonia Josepha Johanna von Habsburg-Lothringen, mais conhecida como Maria Antonieta (1755-1793). Escreveu mais de 100 óperas, das quais apenas cerca de 40 são conhecidas. Sammartini, professor de Gluck que influenciou muitos compositores do Classicismo. A formação musical de Gluck foi concluída em Milão com o mestreGiovanni Battista Sammartini (1700-1775) e lá mesmo na Itália teve suas primeiras óperas representadas até 1745, como Artaserse (1741), sobre libretos de Metastasio, que ainda reinava absoluto na época. Passou anos viajando e apresentando seus trabalhos em Paris e Londres – onde o grande Georg Friedrich Händel (1685-1759) o recebe, mas afirma (com sua famosa “delicadeza”) que seu cozinheiro sabe contraponto melhor que ele – e ainda: Leipzig, Dresden, Viena, Copenhague e Praga – nesta última estreou sua bela ópera Ezio, também com libreto de Metastasio, da qual temos um vídeo abaixo com uma ária magnífica – deleite para os oboístas.
