  • Thomas Hampson Gives World Premiere with Prague Symphony; Then to Israel, Salzburg and Santa Fe
    Thomas Hampson: world premiere, plus performances in Middle East, Europe, USA 1 message From: Glenn Petry <[email protected]> To: undisclosed recipient Date: Tuesday, July 3, 2012 2:48:01 PM Subject: Thomas Hampson: world premiere, plus performances in Middle East, Europe, USA Thomas Hampson Gives World Premiere with Prague Symphony; then to Israel, Salzburg and Santa Fe Thomas Hampson – recently honored by the Metropolitan Opera Guild with the third installment of its prestigious “Met Mastersinger” series –started his summer at the Zurich Opera, where he brought “sensuality, warmth, and depth” (Die Welt) to the title role of Hindemith’s Mathis der Maler. Next the baritone joins the Prague Symphony Orchestra for the world premiere of Sylvia Bodorová’s orchestral song cycle Linqua Angelorum (“The Language of Angels”), before performing Bloch, Mahler, and Noam Sheriff on multiple dates in Israel and at the Salzburg Festival with Zubin Mehta and the Israel Philharmonic; portraying Puccini’s Scarpia in Tosca at the Santa Fe Opera; and singing Charles Ives with the Mahler Chamber Orchestra under Kent Nagano in Berlin. Hampson also appears in recital with pianist Wolfram Rieger in Austria, singing lieder by Schumann, Mahler, and Dvorák at the Salzburg Festival and songs by Barber and Schumann in Grafenegg. “It’s a fun summer ahead for me,” says Hampson. “After finishing the Hindemith opera in Zurich, I’ll be doing a new piece in the Czech Republic, heading to Israel for some very special concerts, returning to the Salzburg Festival for the first time in a few seasons, and then singing Scarpia in Tosca at Santa Fe with an exciting young cast.

This concert opens with, in its American premiere, the final work of Noam Sheriff, who worked with Bernstein in Israel. It continues with music by one of Bernstein’s closest friends, Aaron Copland, and by Charles Ives, whom Bernstein called “The George Washington and Abraham Lincoln of our music.” (It was Bernstein who premiered Ives’ Second Symphony in 1951, half a century after it was written.) And it concludes with music by Bernstein himself: his great – and too seldom-heard – Second Symphony. Its subtitle, The Age of Anxiety, announces a theme that would drive much of Bernstein’s music: the plight of humankind in a difficult century. Lenny (United States Premiere) NOAM SHERIFF Born January 7, 1935, Tel Aviv Died August 25, 2018, Netanya Noam Sheriff, one of the most respected musical figures in Israel, passed away this last August at the age of 83.
