Indeed, it cost him almost Tsuperhuman efforts to find an adequate musico-dramatical way of bringing to the stage the battered ideals of the French Revolution, “freedom, equality, fraternity”. The opera underwent FIDELIO and survived two titles, three librettists, three versions and four overtures until it was finally given its successful world premiere in Vienna in 1814 in the two-act form we are familiar with today. Conductor Bernard Haitink Beethoven blends Singspiel, drama, tragedy and a hymn to Orchestra Orchestra of the Zurich Opera House humanity into a unique whole.

  • Lucia Di Lammermoor
    July 30, 2020 – Gaetano Donizetti’s Lucia di Lammermoor “Lammermoor lass goes mad, stabs fiancée to death” is the headline that might have appeared in The Scotsman following the premiere of Gaetano Donizetti’s Lucia di Lammermoor, which is featured on this week’s Thursday Night Opera House. Loosely based on Sir Walter Scott’s historical novel The Bride of Lammermoor, the opera benefitted greatly from a European interest in the history and culture of Scotland: the perceived romance of its violent wars and feuds, as well as its folklore and mythology, intrigued nineteenth-century readers and audiences. Lucia premiered on September 26, 1835 at the Teatro San Carlo in Naples. It has always been the best-known of Donizetti's tragic operas and has never fallen out of the standard repertory. In seventeenth-century Scotland, Lucia (soprano Andrea Rost) loves Edgardo (tenor Bruce Ford), the dispossessed master of Ravenswood and an enemy of her family. The couple exchange rings and vows before Edgardo leaves the country on a mission, and Lucia’s brother Enrico (baritone Anthony Michaels-Moore), learning of this, is outraged. He wants his sister to make a politically advantageous marriage to Lord Arturo Bucklaw (tenor Paul Charles Clark) and shows her a forged letter supposedly written by Edgardo that “proves” his infidelity. In the light of this and persuaded by the chaplain Raimondo (bass Alastair Miles), Lucia reluctantly agrees to the marriage. Months later Edgardo returns, interrupts the wedding celebration, curses Lucia and flings her ring at her, provoking Enrico to challenge him to a duel in the Ravenswood cemetery.

  • Decca Discography
    DECCA DISCOGRAPHY >>V VIENNA, Austria, Germany, Hungary, etc. The Vienna Philharmonic was the jewel in Decca’s crown, particularly from 1956 when the engineers adopted the Sofiensaal as their favoured studio. The contract with the orchestra was secured partly by cultivating various chamber ensembles drawn from its membership. Vienna was favoured for symphonic cycles, particularly in the mid-1960s, and for German opera and operetta, including Strausses of all varieties and Solti’s “Ring” (1958-65), as well as Mackerras’s Janá ček (1976-82). Karajan recorded intermittently for Decca with the VPO from 1959-78. But apart from the New Year concerts, resumed in 2008, recording with the VPO ceased in 1998. Outside the capital there were various sessions in Salzburg from 1984-99. Germany was largely left to Decca’s partner Telefunken, though it was so overshadowed by Deutsche Grammophon and EMI Electrola that few of its products were marketed in the UK, with even those soon relegated to a cheap label. It later signed Harnoncourt and eventually became part of the competition, joining Warner Classics in 1990. Decca did venture to Bayreuth in 1951, ’53 and ’55 but wrecking tactics by Walter Legge blocked the release of several recordings for half a century. The Stuttgart Chamber Orchestra’s sessions moved from Geneva to its home town in 1963 and continued there until 1985. The exiled Philharmonia Hungarica recorded in West Germany from 1969-75. There were a few engagements with the Bavarian Radio in Munich from 1977- 82, but the first substantial contract with a German symphony orchestra did not come until 1982.

  • Singer in Concert
    José Cura the Singer in Concert Then comes José Cura and the stage explodes. He’s a real professional with remarkably constant contact with the audience. The audience gave thanks with a standing ovation. Súgópéldány, February 2015 José Cura’s early years as a singer followed the normal trajectory of young, talented artists: working to acquire experience, reIining stagecraft and gaining exposure. The hustle required to “make it” in theaters and open air venues often prove over-whelming but Cura thrived under the intensity, the pressure, the public gaze. No matter the size of the crowd, he pressed on, giving his all, willing his all, to reach each member of the audience, to sell himself and his potential. The struggle to succeed strengthened his resolve and honed his instincts as an entertainer, allowing the emerging showman to gain conIidence, to burnish his charisma. Cura careened from opportunity to opportunity, from stage to stage, city to city, developing his unique style of delivery and spreading his charm, inevitably creating the trajectory needed to launch a legendary career. Recitals with reduced piano scores are a starting point in the development of a young vocalist. Cura learned quickly: performances of highlights from Cavalleria rusticana at the Teatro dell’Arca in Milan, La fanciulla del west for the Circle Dordoni in Brescia, Il trovatore at Teatro Rosetum in Milan. Cura also secured his Iirst appearance outside Italy in 1992, in Breisgau, Germany, with an evening of Italian opera favorites. Small roles in operas (Le remendado in Carmen and Il capitano dei ballestrieri in Simon Boccanegra) led to bigger roles (Albert Gregor in Il caso Makropulos, Lt Niki in Sogno di un valzer, Jan in La signorina Julie) and a Iirst recording (Le villi, live from Martina Franca).
