Kenneth Tarver Kenneth Tarver - È considerato dalla critica uno dei migliori tenori di grazia della sua generazione, grazie alla bellezza della sua voce, alla tecnica virtuosa, alla grande ed omogenea estensione vocale, il tutto unito ad una affascinante ed elegante presenza scenica. Ha cantato nei teatri più prestigiosi del mondo, incluso la Royal Opera House Covent-Garden di Londra (Falstaff, Così fan tutte, La Cenerentola e Otello di Rossini), la Wiener Staatsoper (Il Barbiere di Siviglia), la Deutsche Oper di Berlino (Don Pasquale, Der Rosenkavalier, Die Zauberflöte, Semiramide), la Staatsoper Unter den Linden (Belshazzar), la Bayerische Staatsoper (Così fan tutte, La Cenerentola, Falstaff), la Dresden Semperoper (L’Italiana in Algeri), il Gran Teatre del Liceu di Barcellona (Il viaggio a Reims), l’Opéra Comique di Parigi (Fra Diavolo), Teatro Verdi di Trieste (Il turco in Italia), La Monnaie di Bruxelles (Idomeneo), la Metropolitan Opera di New York (Il Barbiere di Siviglia, La Cenerentola), il San Carlo di Napoli (Così fan tutte) e il Festival d’Aix-en-Provence (Don Giovanni) diretto da Claudio Abbado. Kenneth Tarver è uno specialista dei repertori più esigenti dal punto di vista virtuosistico: recentemente ha ottenuto grandi successi in opere come L’Anima del filosofo di Haydn (nel ruolo di Orfeo al Budapest Festival e con la direzione di Adam Fisher), Orphèe et Euridice di Gluck (alla Staatsoper di Stoccarda), Idomeneo di Mozart (alla Monnaie di Bruxelles e con Jeremie Rhorer), Orlando Paladino (al Concertgebouw di Amsterdam con la Hilversum Radio Orchestra diretto da Alessandro De Marchi) e L’infedeltà delusa entrambe di Haydn (al Musikverein di Vienna diretto da Nikolaus Harnoncourt). Prossimamente debutterà come Belmonte in Die Entführung aus dem Serail di Mozart e in Antigona di Traetta alla Staatsoper Unter den Linden di Berlino, diretto, nella seconda, da René Jacobs. Inoltre sarà Belshazzar di Handel nel suo debutto sullo scenario del Capitole di Tolosa e registrerà, con Opera Rara, Aureliano in Palmira di Rossini prima di cantarla al Royal Festival Hall di Londra diretto da Maurizio Benini. Come solista in concerto, si è costruito un impressionante repertorio di opere raramente rappresentate e ha collaborato con direttori d’orchestra del calibro di Alberto Zedda (Moïse et Pharaon di Rossini all’Opera Royale de Wallonie di Liegi; L’inganno felice e La gazza ladra al Rossini Festival di Wildbald; La scala di seta alla Deutsche Oper; Adelaide di Borgogna alla Coruña), Riccardo Chailly (Pulcinella di Stravinsky al Concertgebouw di Amsterdam; Passione secondo Matteo di Bach con la Orchestra Sinfonica di Milano “Giuseppe Verdi”; Passione secondo Giovanni con la Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchester), Carlo Rizzi (Armida di Rossini al Festival di Edimburgo), Bobby McFerrin (Messiah di Handel con la Munich Philharmonic), Frans Bruggen (Requiem di Mozart con l’Orchestra della Toscana). Importanti anche le sue partecipazioni in My age, My Wild Beast di Rodion Shchedrin’s al Rheingau Festspiele, nel film Armida di Judith Weir per Channel 4, Carmina Burana di Orff al Verbier Festival e il Requiem di Mozart al Tanglewood Festival diretto da James Levine. Kenneth Tarver ha inciso con le più importanti etichette discografiche come Deutsche Grammophon (Les Nuits d’été e Roméo et Juliette di Berlioz con Pierre Boulez e la Cleveland Orchestra; A White House Cantata di Bernstein con Kent Nagano e la London Symphony Orchestra), LSO Live (Béatrice et Bénédicte, Roméo et Juliette e Les Troyens di Berlioz con Sir Colin Davis e la London Symphony Orchestra). Inoltre ha registrato con Naxos la serie completa delle canzoni di Ives, con Opera Rara La donna del lago di Rossini diretto da Maurizio Benini e, con Harmonia Mundi, Don Giovanni e Idomeneo diretto da René Jacobs e accompagnato dalla Freiburger Barockorchester. Kenneth Tarver ha studiato all’Interlochen Arts Academy ed all’Oberlin College Conservatory of Music, possiede un Masters of Music Performance della Università di Yale, dove, inoltre, ha ricevuto il riconoscimento della presidenza come Most Outstanding Student. Ha ricevuto il premio Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions ed è stato membro del Metropolitan Opera’s Young Artist Development Program e della Staatsoper Stuttgart Ensemble. .

  • Download L'occasione Fa Il Ladro
    Grußwort der Schirmherrin Sehr gerne habe ich die Schirmherrschaft der 29. Auflage L’occasione fa il ladro des Opernfestivals ROSSINI IN WILDBAD übernommen. Ein vielseitiges Potpourri aus Opern und Konzerten erwartet die hoffentlich überaus zahlreichen Besucherinnen und Besucher der traditionellen Veranstaltungsreihe. Damit gedenken die Veranstalter des großen italienischen Kom- Burletta per musica in einem Akt ponisten Gioachino Rossini, der, wie viele andere große Uraufführung am 24. November 1812 Geister, eine Zeit seines Lebens im heutigen Baden- am Teatro San Moisè in Venedig Württemberg zubrachte. Libretto von Luigi Prividali Besonders freut mich, dass im Rahmen des Festivals auch der Nachwuchsförderung eine tragende Rolle zukommt. Die Zahl der diversen Freizeitaktivitäten und auch der Musik von Gioachino Rossini Ablenkungen ist heute sehr groß, gerade im Zeitalter der Digitalisierung. Nichts geht aber über das analoge, direkte Erleben szenischmusikalischer Darbietungen in Spitzen- Neuausgabe nach dem Autograf und zeitgenössischen Quellen qualität wie beim Belcanto Opera Festival ROSSINI IN WILDBAD. hrsg. von Aldo Salvagno für ROSSINI IN WILDBAD © 2017 Dabei ist es wichtig, junge Menschen für das Musizieren – einer herausragend wert- vollen kulturellen Aktivität – zu begeistern. Einige Musiker und Sängerkarrieren haben in Bad Wildbad ihren erfolgreichen Anfang genommen. Damit leistet ROSSINI IN WILD- BAD auch einen wertvollen und hochzuschätzenden Beitrag für die Karrierechancen junger Musikerinnen und Musiker. Auch in meiner täglichen bildungspolitischen Arbeit besitzt Musik eine wichtige Bedeutung. Mir ist dort der Musikunterricht in den Schulen sehr wichtig. Er legt die Grundlage für eigenes Musizieren der Schülerinnen und Schüler, für bewussten lebenslangen Musikgenuss und für die Pflege unschätzbar wertvollen Kulturgutes. ROSSINI IN WILDBAD trägt zu allen drei Aspekten inzwischen seit fast drei Jahr- zehnten einen glanzvollen und attraktiven Teil bei.

His musical training began at the Conservatorio Giuseppe Verdi in Milan and continued with Renato Sassola in Buenos Aires and Armen Boyajian and John Fisher in New York.

At that time the late James Burnett was especially helpful in providing dates for the L’Oiseau-Lyre recordings that he produced. More information was obtained from additional paperwork in association with Richard Alston for his book published to celebrate the conductor’s 70 th birthday in 1997. John Hunt’s most valuable discography devoted to the Staatskapelle Dresden was again helpful. Further updating has been undertaken in addition to the generous assistance of Philip Stuart via his LSO discography which he compiled for the Orchestra’s centenary in 2004 and has kept updated. Inevitably there are a number of missing credits for producers and engineers in the earliest years as these facts no longer survive. Additionally some exact dates have not been tracked down.

  • Gioachino Rossini (1792–1868) Italian, Ingenious, Inspired
    Gioachino Rossini (1792–1868) Italian, ingenious, inspired. Gioachino Rossini occupied an unrivalled position in the Italian musical world of his time, winning considerable success relatively early in his career. He was the first of the great 19th century Italian opera composers and brought opera into the public consciousness and even today his music still rings true. Rossini had already written ten operas before he was 21, and eventually composed 39 major stage works, though in his last thirty years he wrotcve nothing new. He did try to become a composer of serious operas, but it will always be his comic operas, The Barber of Seville (8.553436) and Cinderella (8.660191-92) that his fame will rest. Label Cat.
