  • Broadcasting the Arts: Opera on TV
    Broadcasting the Arts: Opera on TV With onstage guests directors Brian Large and Jonathan Miller & former BBC Head of Music & Arts Humphrey Burton on Wednesday 30 April BFI Southbank’s annual Broadcasting the Arts strand will this year examine Opera on TV; featuring the talents of Maria Callas and Lesley Garrett, and titles such as Don Carlo at Covent Garden (BBC, 1985) and The Mikado (Thames/ENO, 1987), this season will show how television helped to democratise this art form, bringing Opera into homes across the UK and in the process increasing the public’s understanding and appreciation. In the past, television has covered opera in essentially four ways: the live and recorded outside broadcast of a pre-existing operatic production; the adaptation of well-known classical opera for remounting in the TV studio or on location; the very rare commission of operas specifically for television; and the immense contribution from a host of arts documentaries about the world of opera production and the operatic stars that are the motor of the industry. Examples of these different approaches which will be screened in the season range from the David Hockney-designed The Magic Flute (Southern TV/Glyndebourne, 1978) and Luchino Visconti’s stage direction of Don Carlo at Covent Garden (BBC, 1985) to Peter Brook’s critically acclaimed filmed version of The Tragedy of Carmen (Alby Films/CH4, 1983), Jonathan Miller’s The Mikado (Thames/ENO, 1987), starring Lesley Garret and Eric Idle, and ENO’s TV studio remounting of Handel’s Julius Caesar with Dame Janet Baker. Documentaries will round out the experience with a focus on the legendary Maria Callas, featuring rare archive material, and an episode of Monitor with John Schlesinger’s look at an Italian Opera Company (BBC, 1958).

  • EDITH PIAF LA MÖME Una Vida… Una Leyenda
    EDITH PIAF LA MÖME Una vida… una leyenda ay vidas que por sus características, por las condiciones, a menudo desfavorables, en las cuales comienzan o se desenvuelven, pero que Hllenas de una tenacidad sin falla, de un espíritu colmado de talento y de la pasión que le imprimen a cada momento y a cada reto, se convierten en vidas ejemplares, incluso en leyendas. Tal es el caso de Edith Giovanna Gassion, a quien se le conoce en el mundo entero bajo el nombre artístico de Edith Piaf. Nació Edith, el 19 de diciembre de 1915 en París, y cuenta la historia que su madre, Annetta Mai- llard, quien era cantante ambulante, no alcanzó a llegar al hospital al momento del parto, entonces Edith vino al mundo en la calle de Belleville, frente a una farola en el número 72, donde hoy hay una placa que recuerda el acontecimiento. La pobreza y la profesión ambulante de sus padres los obliga a confiar la niña a la abuela materna, quien alimentaba a la bebé más con vino que con leche, esto no dura mucho pues es recuperada por su padre, quien estando próximo a ir al frente en la Primera Guerra Mundial, la lleva a Normandía donde su madre, quien es dueña de un prostíbulo en el municipio de Bernay; allí vive Edith sus años de infancia cobijada por el amor que le prodigaban estas mujeres, lo que le genera sus primeros sentimientos de aprecio hacia las personas desfavorecidas, aquellas que sufren una vida dura y difícil. Luego de la guerra su padre la lleva consigo a vivir la vida de los pequeños circos itinerantes, donde se descubre cantando en las calles su extraordinaria voz, hasta el momento de la separación de su progenitor a los 14 años, para iniciar su vida de artista entre Montmartre, Pigalle y Menilmontat… es cuando encuentra y se enamora de Louis Dupont, con quien tuvo su hija Marcelle, quien fallece a los 2 años víctima de una meningitis.
