  • Kenneth E. Querns Langley Doctor of Philosophy
    Reconstructing the Tenor ‘Pharyngeal Voice’: a Historical and Practical Investigation Kenneth E. Querns Langley Submitted in partial fulfilment of Doctor of Philosophy in Music 31 October 2019 Page | ii Abstract One of the defining moments of operatic history occurred in April 1837 when upon returning to Paris from study in Italy, Gilbert Duprez (1806–1896) performed the first ‘do di petto’, or high c′′ ‘from the chest’, in Rossini’s Guillaume Tell. However, according to the great pedagogue Manuel Garcia (jr.) (1805–1906) tenors like Giovanni Battista Rubini (1794–1854) and Garcia’s own father, tenor Manuel Garcia (sr.) (1775–1832), had been singing the ‘do di petto’ for some time. A great deal of research has already been done to quantify this great ‘moment’, but I wanted to see if it is possible to define the vocal qualities of the tenor voices other than Duprez’, and to see if perhaps there is a general misunderstanding of their vocal qualities. That investigation led me to the ‘pharyngeal voice’ concept, what the Italians call falsettone. I then wondered if I could not only discover the techniques which allowed them to have such wide ranges, fioritura, pianissimi, superb legato, and what seemed like a ‘do di petto’, but also to reconstruct what amounts to a ‘lost technique’. To accomplish this, I bring my lifelong training as a bel canto tenor and eighteen years of experience as a classical singing teacher to bear in a partially autoethnographic study in which I analyse the most important vocal treatises from Pier Francesco Tosi’s (c.

  • The Complete Sacred Music of Nicolò Isouard (1773 – 1818) and Maltese Sacred Music for the Order of Malta in the Late Eighteenth Century
    The Complete Sacred Music of Nicolò Isouard (1773 – 1818) and Maltese Sacred Music for The Order of Malta in the Late Eighteenth Century. By Richard Sydney Benedict Divall Doctor of Letters (Honoris Causa – Monash 1992) and Doctor of the University (Honoris Causa – Australian Catholic University 2004) A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy MCD University of Divinity 2013 MCD University of Divinity To Whom it May Concern This is to certify that the thesis and music editions presented by me for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy comprises only my original work except where due acknowledgment is made in the text to all other material used. Signature: ____________________________________ Name in Full: ____________________________________ Date: ____________________________________ Abstract. Nicolò Isouard (1773-1818) is considered Malta’s national composer. After studies in France and Naples, he returned to his homeland, where from 1794 to 1798 he was an aspiring composer, and employee of the Order of Malta. In 1994 a collection of thirty-three autographs of hitherto unknown sacred music by Isouard appeared at the Bibliothèque Nationale, Paris, and I recognised the importance of these manuscripts. My intentions are to provide a précis on the Order, as the sovereign entity ruling Malta at the time, and the sacred music composed for them in their great Conventual Church in Valletta – now St John’s Co-Cathedral. The thesis will provide the background to Isouard’s early career and a complete edition and commentary of all of his sacred music, including additional works found during the research process, and a catalogue of his stage works.

  • Who Was Who in the Old Conservatories
    Who Was Who In The Old Conservatories Timelines of the Various Maestros Along with Brief Histories of their Institutions The Loreto The orphanage of Santa Maria di Loreto was founded in 1535 in the poor fishermen’s district of Naples. Both boys and girls were taken in until a separate school for girls opened in 1543. Children were taught various trades, which included music after the hiring of professional music teachers (between 1630 and 1640). From 1644 onward, boys able to pay tuition could also enroll. During the eighteenth century the conservatory be- came one of Europe’s finest schools of music. The unsettled times caused by the Napoleanic wars led to Ferdinand IV req- School Uniform uisitioning the conservatory’s building in 1797 for use as a mili- tary hospital. Teachers and students moved to the conservatory of Sant’Onofrio. Finally, in 1806, the remants of Sant’Onofrio and S.

Translating, Adapting, And Performing Opera In Eighteenth-Century Cosmopolitan Europe: Lorenzo Da Ponte At The King's Theatre Abstract This dissertation examines music and text circulation in cosmopolitan Europe during the last decades of the eighteenth century through the lens of translation. London in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries was the largest center of Italian operatic performance outside of Italy. All performances sung at the King’s Theatre, London, were sung in Italian, the presumed language of opera, even when the works had been originated in other languages. This created the need for a culture of translation and adaptation of works from abroad, making them suitable for a London audience partially through the retention of foreignness and partially through domesticating practices. In the 1790s, a period of political tension between Britain and post-Revolution France, four French operas were presented at the King's Theatre in Italian translations attributed to the poet Lorenzo Da Ponte (1749-1838): Gluck's Iphig�nie en Tauride, Gr�try's Z�mire et Azor, Monsigny's La belle Ars�ne, and Sacchini's Arvire et �v�lina.

    EASY Pilot Project European Online Application System for mobility among higher music education institutions The International Relations Coordinators of AEC member institutions have been suggesting for some years that AEC could develop a common European online applications system for ERASMUS and other mobility schemes applications, in order to overcome various obstacles such as the amount of paper work and the proliferation different online systems and procedures. In the framework of the European Funded project FULL SCORE, a task force of international relations experts (a subgroup of the AEC IRCs working group), supported by the IT company ASIMUT, selected the Estonian company Dreamapply to provide an IT solution which could meet the ambitious and unique needs of such a system at European level. With the input of the task force, the company has released the first version of the European Online Application System (EASY) in December 2016. The system has been tested during the academic year 2016-2017 by the 41 AEC members institutions which took part in the first pilot phase. During Summer 2017 a new working group of experienced EASY users has been formed in order to work with Dreamapply on improvements to shape a better system for the academic year 2017-2018. Thanks to EASY the AEC is going to sign a Memorandum of Understanding with the European University Foundation in the framework of the EC funded project Erasmus Without Papers in order to follow up and influence developments in the field of the digitization of Erasmus procedures. The web address of the system is https://aec.dreamapply.com/ What are the benefits of using EASY? 1.

  • DOI: 58 Giorgio Sanguinetti
    Giorgio Sanguinetti A Partimento in Classical Sonata Form by Giacomo Tritto Giacomo Tritto (*Altamura 1733; †Naples 1824) was a prolific, albeit not tremendously successful, opera composer. In his remarkably long life, he wrote more than fifty operas, mostly comic operas – a lesser genre in late eighteenth-century Naples. Today, his ope- ratic output is remembered mainly because of Il convitato di pietra,acomicoperastaged at the Teatro de’ Fiorentini in Naples in 1783, five years earlier than Mozart’s Don Gio- vanni.1 Tritto’s opera, on a libretto by Giovanbattista Lorenzi, is a fine example of the comic side of the Don Giovanni myth and has been recently restaged at the Teatro Verdi in Pisa in the season 2015/16. Tritto was also one of the most influential Neapolitan teachers of his age. When the twosurvivingconservatoriesoftheoriginalfour,Sant’OnofrioandthePietàdeiTurchini, merged in 1806 into a new Collegio di Musica, instead of a single director, Giuseppe Bonaparte chose Tritto along with Fedele Fenaroli and Giovanni Paisiello to form the so-called Triumvirato – a board of governors – that lasted until 1813, when Niccolò Zingarelli became the sole governor. Tritto achieved the highest honour through all the stages of his long career. He entered the Conservatorio della Pietà dei Turchini in 1746, where he was a student of Pasquale Cafaro and Nicola Sala.2 In 1759 he became “maestrino” (teaching assistant) of Cafaro and in 1785 “secondo maestro straordinario” in the same Conservatorio, where in 1799 he became full professor of counterpoint and composition.3 1 The position of Tritto’s opera as a precursor of Mozart’s Don Giovanni has attracted a consider- able size of musicological attention.

CONTENTS Introduction 5 Publisher’s Note 9 Contents of Reels 11 Listing of Manuscripts 15 INTRODUCTION The Ajuda Library was established after the Lisbon earthquake of 1755 near the royal palace of the same name to replace the court library which had been destroyed in the earthquake, and from its creation it incorporated many different collections, which were either acquired, donated or in certain cases confiscated, belonging to private owners, members of the royal family or religious institutions. Part of the library holdings followed the royal family to Brazil after 1807 and several of these remained there after the court returned to Portugal in 1822. The printed part of those holdings constituted the basis of the National Library of Rio de Janeiro.
