  • Dmitri Hvorostovsky (1962 - 2017)
    OBITUARIO Dmitri Hvorostovsky (1962 - 2017) por Ingrid Haas ste es un triste adiós a una gran voz, a un hombre cuya sola presencia en escena hacía que el público Equedase fascinado con su encanto, su imponente porte y esa voz única que conquistó tantos escenarios del mundo y a tantas personas que le aplaudían con fervor. Ese hombre fue el barítono siberiano de cabellos plateados Dmitri Aleksandrovich Hvorostovsky, nacido el 16 de octubre de 1962 y quien lamentablemente murió en Londres el pasado 22 de noviembre de 2017 a la edad de 55 años, a causa de un tumor cerebral que lo tuvo dos años y medio en tratamientos que no lograron salvar su vida. Nacido en Krasnoyarsk, Siberia, “Dima”, como le decían sus amigos, se convirtió en uno de los grandes artistas rusos de su generación desde muy joven. Comenzó su carrera en 1985 en el Teatro Estatal de Ópera y Ballet de su ciudad natal, haciendo su debut como Marullo en Rigoletto. Fue muy famosa su participación en el BBC Cardiff Singer of the World, concurso que ganó en 1989, venciendo en una competencia muy reñida a otro grande de la ópera, el bajo-barítono Bryn Terfel, lanzándose así a la fama gracias a su bella y oscura voz, con un fiato casi interminable que le era tan característico. Después de este concurso, hizo su debut en la Ópera de Nice como el Príncipe Yeletsky en La dama de picas de Chaikovski, papel que sería parte muy importante de su carrera. En 1993 hizo su debut en Estados Unidos cantando el rol de Giorgio Germont en en la Ópera Lírica de Chicago.

  • Sobre Rossini Y Su Maestría
    ENSAYO Sobre Rossini y su maestría por Iván López Reynoso ace algunos años me encontraba sentado en una de las butacas del Metropolitan Opera House de Nueva York, y el título que estaba por iniciar esa noche era Le comte Ory de Rossini. Estaba familiarizado con esta ópera gracias a las versiones discográficas que conocía: la primera, con Juan Diego Flórez como el libertino Conde Ory, grabada durante las presentaciones del Festival Rossini de Pésaro Hdel año 2003; la segunda, con John Aler, Sumi Jo y Diana Montague dirigidos por John Eliot Gardiner. Mi asombro ante tal función fue tal que pensé: “No hay razón alguna que impida que este título sea uno de los grandes éxitos del repertorio. Habría que hacer algo para que esta música llegue pronto a México”. En ese momento supe que Rossini iba a ser un compositor muy cercano a mí y a mi carrera; aunque, debo confesar, no podía imaginarme cuánto. Así, Le comte Ory se convirtió en un proyecto inmediato. Era sumamente importante para mí compartir con mis amigos, colegas y aficionados esa sensación que experimentaba al oír tan sublime, delicada, chispeante y brillante partitura. Gracias a Pro Ópera, AC y a otras instituciones interesadas en el proyecto, pudimos presentar de 2011 a 2013 un total de 10 funciones de esta ópera. Y, conforme más me acercaba al repertorio rossiniano, más me preguntaba las razones por las que no podíamos salir del mismo catálogo de siempre. Curioso en realidad, si nos ponemos a pensar con detenimiento que uno de los compositores más conocidos de todos los tiempos es, al mismo tiempo, uno de los menos conocidos.

    Silvana Sintow Classicalia International Promotions & Management Schleibingerstrasse 8 - 81669 München - Germany • Tel: + 49-89- 44 21 89 00 e-mail: [email protected] • www.classicalia-international.com • Fax: + 49-89- 44 21 89 03 Sumi Jo Soprano Acclaimed for the remarkable agility, precision and warmth of her voice and for her outstanding musicianship, the Grammy Award-winning soprano Sumi Jo has established herself as one of most sought-after sopranos of our times. Described as a “Superstar” and “one of the best-loved sopranos of her generation” (CNN, Dec 2012), she has consistently found praise for her performances on the world’s most important opera and concert hall stages. Following her musical studies at the Accademia di Santa Cecilia in Rome, Sumi Jo became a winner of some of the most important singing competitions, including the Carlo Alberto Cappelli International Competition. Invitations to radio and television programs immediately followed. In 1989 she made a brilliant debut at the Salzburg Festival as Oscar in Un ballo in Maschera, marking the launch of a stellar career. In rapid succession, she began performing on all major opera stages including the New York Metropolitan Opera, the Milan Scala, the London Royal Opera House, the Opéra National and the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris, the Vienna State Opera, the Teatro Colón in Buenos Aires and countless others. Her domain lies in the great coloratura roles by Mozart, Rossini, Bellini, Donizetti, Meyerbeer, Delibes and Gounod, but also Violetta in La Traviata, Gilda in Rigoletto, Olympia in Les contes d'Hoffmann or Zerbinetta in Ariadne auf Naxos – roles with which she continues to set standards, enchanting audiences and press alike.

  • 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.

  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE DATE: 27 January 2014
    PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE DATE: 27 January 2014 Sumi Jo in HK Phil Concerts Presenting Beloved Arias from Opera, Operetta and Music Theatre (7 & 8 Feb) [27 January 2014, Hong Kong] Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra (HK Phil) is proud to present well-loved arias from opera, operetta and music theatre performed by Sumi Jo, one of today’s most sought-after sopranos. The concert will be conducted by Jung-Ho Pak. Together, these two Korean artists will take you on an extraordinary music journey on 7 & 8 February. “A voice from above” -- Herbert von Karajan Sumi Jo is one of the most sought-after sopranos in the world. With over 50 recordings including the Grammy-winning Die Frau ohne Schatten, she was described as ‘A Voice from Above’ by legendary conductor Herbert von Karajan. From Verdi’s Aida to Rachmaninov’s Vocalise, her astounding virtuosity and dazzling stage presence make her a delight both to hear and see. Sumi has appeared in such unique events as the gala concert with Jonas Kaufmann, Renée Fleming and Dmitri Hvorostovsky at the Beijing Olympics 2008. “He [Pak] eschews a baton and leads the musicians with humour and earnest body contortions coaxing the sound he wants.” -- The New York Times Described by the New York Times as a conductor who "radiates enthusiasm", the Los Angeles Times as "a real grabber", and twice by the San Diego Union-Tribune as one of the most "impactful people to watch", American-born Jung-Ho Pak has established a reputation as a visionary and influential leader. He has been the principal conductor of the Emmy-nominated Disney Young Musicians Symphony Orchestra for 8 years and has performed across Europe, the former Soviet Union, South America and Asia.
