Messa Per Rossini
Messa per Rossini L'oeuvre oubliée... 13 novembre 2018 30 ans Un événement exceptionnel pour fêter les 30 ans du chœur ! 1792 – 1868 Pour le 150è anniversaire de la disparition du maître, le chœur Arianna présente pour la première fois dans notre région une œuvre du Répertoire Romantique majeure et pourtant oubliée : Messa per Rossini composée en 1868-69 par Antonio Antonio Carlo Antonio Federico Alessandro BUZZOLA BAZZINI PEDROTTI CAGNONI RICCI NINI Requiem – Kyrie Dies irae Tuba mirum Quid sum miser Recordare Jesu Ingemisco Raimondo Carlo Gaetano Pietro Lauro Teodulo Giuseppe BOUCHERON COCCIA GASPARI PLATANIA ROSSI MABELLINI VERDI Confutatis – Oro supplex Lacrymosa Domine Jesu Sanctus Agnus Dei Lux æterna Libera me 13 novembre 1868, l'Europe musicale est sous le choc : Rossini est mort ! Les hommages pleuvent de toutes parts : compositeurs, musiciens, politiciens ou simples mélomanes, aucun ne trouve assez de mots pour exprimer son désarroi face à cette perte immense. Il est vrai que, de son vivant même, Gioacchino Rossini est devenu une légende, lui qui, après avoir composé des chefs-d'œuvres immortels, dont plus de trente opéras, a décidé, dès 1830, de se retirer en n'écrivant plus que pour ses amis. Cette longue « retraite » voit naître tout de même des œuvres extrêmement célèbres telles que le Stabat Mater (1841) ou la Petite Messe Solennelle (1864). L'Italie est en deuil Verdi souhaite un hommage au maître digne de son talent, de son génie. Non pas un simple concert hommage ou des discours... Il faut une œuvre monumentale qui rappelle au monde, aux générations futures, à quel point Rossini était immense.

Giuseppe Verdi Messa da Requiem per soli, coro e orchestra 16 marzo 1874: “...quella Diavola di Messa, la quale finalmente è finita”. Dopo trent’anni e passa di dedizione pressoché totale al melodramma, Verdi completava un approdo alla musica sacra che oggi ci appare tutt’altro che casuale o privo di significato. Un approdo, certo, non un ritorno: troppo lontane nel tempo, ma soprattutto nello spazio mentale, le composizioni giovanili scritte a Busseto, prima che il teatro diventasse definitivamente la sua professione. Ma, a ben vedere, fra quei giorni ormai sbia- diti nella memoria e questo poderoso presente un filo sottile sottile di continuità forse c’è. La prima pietra l’aveva posta nel 1868, alla morte di Gioachino Rossini, lanciando l’idea di un Requiem collettivo in sua memo- ria, musicato una parte per ciascuno dai principali composi- tori italiani.

The Pittsburgh Symphony premiered the work at Syria Mosque under the direction of Fritz Reiner on March 29, 1940, and it was most recently performed with music director Manfred Honeck on December 5, 2010. The score calls for piccolo, two flutes, two oboes, two clarinets, four bassoons, four horns, four orchestral trumpets and four additional off-stage trumpets, three trombones, tuba, timpani, bass drum and strings.

Decca Discography
DECCA DISCOGRAPHY >>I ITALY & Monte Carlo Until the mid-1960s it was taken for granted that the place to record Italian opera was Italy. After a few sessions in Milan (lost to EMI in 1954) and a recording with the Turin Symphony Orchestra during a visit to London in 1947 (AR11722-47), Decca settled on Rome from 1950-70, plus Florence from 1955- 63, with an excursion to Naples in 1964. Monte Carlo followed from 1967-69 and Bologna from 1973-77, but by then London had become the world’s capital for recording operas, whether Italian, French, German or English. Del Monaco was the reigning tenor from 1952-69 and Tebaldi the reigning soprano from 1951-73. Their successors Pavarotti (1964-99) and Sutherland (1959-87) recorded mainly in London and regular sessions in Italy only resumed with Chailly, in Bologna from 1986-93 and Milan since 1995. In the twenty-first century opera recording in Italy has regained something of the status it enjoyed fifty years earlier, though both Bartoli (from 1988) and Flórez (from 1998) have also recorded extensively elsewhere. >RVI VENUES Thirty-eight different venues were used, but only four (those in bold ) hosted ten or more entries, whilst twenty-one were only visited once. Evidently finding satisfactory locations in Bologna and Milan proved difficult. AULA ABSIDALE DI SANTA LUCIA, BOLOGNA, Emilia Romagna (1988), a 300 seat hall set in the apse of a church (1659), was visited twice in 1991-92 to record the local chamber orchestra. Chiesa di SAN GIORGIO POGGIALE, BOLOGNA, Emilia Romagna (1633) was preferred to the opera house for four recordings from 1985-87.
