  • CHAPTER 5 EPILOGUE It Has Been My Aim in This Thesis to Address a Two-Fold Proposition. Informed by My Reading of the Work of Gi
    CHAPTER 5 EPILOGUE It has been my aim in this thesis to address a two-fold proposition. Informed by my reading of the work of Gilles de Van, I have discovered that Verdi wished to realize a concept which he called posizione. He provided musical strategies which would delineate characters in their subjective and objective ‘position’ with regard to circumstance and to their relationship with other characters at any given moment of the operatic narrative. The term posizione was intended to denote a musico-dramatic mapping of the co-ordinates which could pinpoint this relationship. With Verdi’s concept in view I have investigated the posizione of Violetta Valéry’s character as it has evolved throughout the course of the operatic narrative of La traviata. In addressing the second facet of my proposition I have taken the term posizione into the broader context of its social implications for the character of Violetta and for women of suspect moral status. In order to do this I have investigated the literary and factual provenance of the narrative and the contemporary response of Despite Budden’s own speculative objection to the notion that Verdi compared Violetta with Giuseppina Strepponi, the possibility remains that the courtesan character elicited a special sympathy from Verdi. The life of Alexandre Dumas fils is the origin from which the narrative of La traviata is drawn. Dumas fils turned the experience of his own liaison with the courtesan Marie Duplessis into the novel La Dame aux Camélias which he later adapted for the stage. As characterized by Dumas, Duplessis, transformed into the more noble Marguerite Gautier, renounced her own happiness in order to save the reputation of the family to whom her lover Armand 192 Duval belonged.

  • Verdi's Rigoletto
    Verdi’s Rigoletto - A discographical conspectus by Ralph Moore It is hard if not impossible, to make a representative survey of recordings of Rigoletto, given that there are 200 in the catalogue; I can only compromise by compiling a somewhat arbitrary list comprising of a selection of the best-known and those which appeal to me. For a start, there are thirty or so studio recordings in Italian; I begin with one made in 1927 and 1930, as those made earlier than that are really only for the specialist. I then consider eighteen of the studio versions made since that one. I have not reviewed minor recordings or those which in my estimation do not reach the requisite standard; I freely admit that I cannot countenance those by Sinopoli in 1984, Chailly in 1988, Rahbari in 1991 or Rizzi in 1993 for a combination of reasons, including an aversion to certain singers – for example Gruberova’s shrill squeak of a soprano and what I hear as the bleat in Bruson’s baritone and the forced wobble in Nucci’s – and the existence of a better, earlier version by the same artists (as with the Rudel recording with Milnes, Kraus and Sills caught too late) or lacklustre singing in general from artists of insufficient calibre (Rahbari and Rizzi). Nor can I endorse Dmitri Hvorostovsky’s final recording; whether it was as a result of his sad, terminal illness or the vocal decline which had already set in I cannot say, but it does the memory of him in his prime no favours and he is in any case indifferently partnered.

  • Opera Recordings: a Very Personal Guide by Ralph Moore
    “Untouchable” and ”Most Recommendable” Opera Recordings: a very personal guide by Ralph Moore My handful of regular readers might have noticed some glaring omissions in the list of thirty-seven major operas whose discographies I have surveyed over the last couple of years - operas whose quality and popularity are such that one might reasonably have expected me to have included them in my labours. There are, after all, probably around fifty truly first-rate operas which have been most often performed and recorded and I have by no means covered them all. I received requests to survey some of the following but on consideration, I realised that there were good reasons for my reluctance to do so. The most obvious omissions are these twelve operas: Verdi’s La traviata and Il trovatore; Wagner’s Lohengrin and Tannhäuser; Mozart’s Don Giovanni; Puccini’s La bohème, Tosca, Madama Butterfly and Turandot; Rossini’s Il barbiere di Siviglia; Donizetti’s Lucia di Lammermoor and Beethoven’s Fidelio. My reason for not having reviewed them collectively is that either the opera in question has received one or two recordings of such definitive quality that consideration of the others is otiose or there are so many good recordings of it in the catalogue that making a helpful or meaningful recommendation becomes difficult. I have therefore decided to circumvent the problem by making some brief, annotated recommendations and guidance for those major operas hitherto neglected. Obviously, my selections are highly subjective and controversial, and other collectors will be dismayed that I have ostensibly rejected their own candidates for recordings of classic status or nominated one they loathe but at the same time I think I may fairly claim that these are, in general, recordings which have stood the test of time.

Este título sube a escena, con el patrocinio de Iberdrola, los próximos días 22, 25, 28 y 31 de octubre, quince años después de su última representación en la temporada bilbaína. Esta tragedia, basada en el drama homónimo de Victor Hugo, narra la historia de la conocida noble italiana Lucrezia Borgia. Para dar vida a los protagonistas de esta ópera considerada como uno de los títulos belcantistas por antonomasia, donde tanto el texto como la música quedan subordinados a la voz, ABAO-OLBE ha reunido a un elenco encabezado por dos grandes figuras de la lírica: Elena Mosuc como ‘Donna Lucrezia Borgia’ y Celso Albelo como ‘Gennaro’. La soprano rumana, una de las mejores sopranos belcantistas, y el tenor tinerfeño, reciente triunfador en Viena y el Metropolitan Opera House, han sido artífices de momentos inolvidables en las temporadas de ABAO, como su memorable actuación conjunta en I Puritani, el primer bis en el Euskalduna protagonizado por el canario en L’elisir d’amore y los bises de Mosuc junto a Leo Nucci en todas las funciones de Rigoletto.

    Rezension für: Thomas Schippers Michael Rabin plays Bruch's Violin Concerto and Virtuoso Pieces for Violin and Piano Max Bruch | Henryk Wieniawski | Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky | Pablo de Sarasate | Camille Saint-Saëns CD aud 95.607 Fono Forum Juli 2010 (Norbert Hornig - 2010.06.16) Lichtstrahl im Archiv Viele Veröffentlichungen historischer Aufnahmen stammen mittlerweile aus Rundfunkarchiven. Meist handelt es sich dabei um Live-Mitschnitte, auch die Geiger sind gut vertreten. Und immer wieder gibt es dabei Entdeckungen zu machen... Posthum zu spätem Ruhm – auf diese einfache Formel könnte man die Wiederentdeckung des Geigers Gerhard Taschner bringen. Die systematische Veröffentlichung seiner Rundfunkaufnahmen auf mehreren Labels erwies sich als ein diskographischer Glücksfall; sie war auch ein besonders deutlicher Hinweis darauf, welche Schätze in den Archiven noch schlummern. Taschners maskulines, elektrisierendes Geigenspiel wirkt aufregend und anziehend in seiner unverwechselbaren Individualität. Wie konnte ein Geiger dieses Kalibers nur so lange vergessen bleiben, fragt man sich. In den fünfziger Jahren avancierte er zum führenden deutschen Geiger, der jedoch nie längerfristig bei einem großen Plattenlabel unter Vertrag war. Sein Nachruhm basiert fast völlig auf Rundfunkaufnahmen. Tragischerweise wurden viele Bänder gelöscht. Bahnbrechend für die Renaissance des Geigers war 1997 die EMI-Veröffentlichung „Gerhard Taschner - Porträt eines legendären Geigers“, eine Doppel-CD unter anderem mit Aufnahmen der Violinkonzerte von Fortner, Pfitzner
