También allí se estrenó la La fanciulla del West (1910), encargada por el propio teatro, que haría su última función en 1961, justamente con Turandot, de la que conservamos una grabación. El actual edificio sólo sería inaugurado en 1966 (cuando también se demo- lió el antiguo teatro) en el monumental Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, encargándose para la ocasión una ópera al americano Samuel Barber, Antony and Cleopatra, cuya producción realizó Franco Zeffirelli, aunque en aquella oca- sión la colaboración fue mal recibida por la crítica.

  • The Tenor and Pianist Miloš Bulajić Was Born 1989 in Bonn, Germany to a Musical Family
    The tenor and pianist Miloš Bulajić was born 1989 in Bonn, Germany to a musical family. As a Belcanto-tenor (tenore di grazia) especially singing the works of Rossini, Donizetti, Bellini and Mozart he is one of the most promising young singers of his generation, so he allready sung lots of the leading roles from this repertoire in numerous operahouses and festivals across europe. Recently he was awarded with the prestigious Italian prize “Premio Arca d´oro Giovani Talenti” which is sponsored by the region of Piemonte and the City of Turin to outstanding young talents. At age seven Miloš Bulajić received piano lessons with Srboljub Dinić, then going on to study Piano at the Hans Eisler University of Music in Berlin and the Julius-Stern Institut in Berlin, graduating with his Concert-Diploma at the University of Music in Würzburg in 2014. He was particularly inspired by Professor Georg Sava (HfM Berlin). Between 1999 and 2002 he was a member of the Domchoir Berlin as well as a member of the children’s choir at the Staatsoper Unter den Linden, Berlin. During his time at the Staatsoper-childrenchoir he had performed as a soloist in numerous productions including TOSCA and LA BOHEME, working with conductors such as Philippe Jordan and Daniel Barenboim. Miloš Bulajić has studied singing with the late Professor Leandra Overmann at the University of Music in Würzburg. His roles there included Ferrando COSI FAN TUTTE, Fenton FALSTAFF and the dancing master ARIADNE AUF NAXOS (directed by Cheryl Studer). He has also taken part in masterclasses at “Accademia della Voce di Torino” with Mariella Devia and Luciana d´Intino.

    OPERAPOINT Jahrgang 20, Heft 4, 2020 Einzelpreis 6 Euro Magazin für Oper und Konzert - unabhängig - publikumsnah Die Zauberfl öte in der Kölner Oper Hier lege ich Ihnen, liebe Lesergemeinde, das 4. Heft 2020 vor. Diesmal wird es durch die verschiedenen Festivals ermöglicht, zwölf Opernrezen- Editorial sionen vorzustellen. Die meisten Kritiken verdanken wir unserem uner- müdlichen Redakteur Oliver Hohlbach. Er durchfährt mit viel Courage die deutschen und ausländischen Länder und erläutert mit Sachverstand die vorgeschriebenen Verordnungen der Regierungen, die dem Volk die Ansteckungen des Virus ersparen wollen. Den Sommerurlaub verbrachte unser Boardmitglied Dr. Martin Knust auf einem Segeltörn in Schweden. Es läßt seine Bürger trotz Virusge- fahr – trotz erheblicher Kritik vieler Länder – frei handeln. In der Nähe Stockholms gibt es eine ausgedehnte Schärenlandschaft. Dr. Knust schil- dert neben der Landschaft mit vielen eindrucksvollen Seebildern auch den schwedischen Komponisten Hugo Alfvén, der kaum jemand der Leser- schaft bekannt seine dürfte, dessen Werke aber großen Hörgenuß berei- ten. Auch in Köln gab es die Oper Die Zauberfl öte ohne Kürzungen in der bewährten Regie von Michael Hampe, dessen unvergeßlicher Zeiten als Kölner Opernintendant von zwei Jahrzehnten 1975-1995 man sich in der jetzigen Theaterinstanz entsann und ihn zu dieser Inszenierung eingela- den hat. Die reduzierten Opernbesucher quittierten seine intelligente und gekonnte Leistung mit starkem Applaus. Die Sängerschar der Premiere, die ich am 3. Oktober 2020 besuchte, ist über die Maßen zu loben. Einer davon, der französische Tenor Julien Behr, war bereit, mir ein Interview zu gewähren, das Sie auf Seite 15 lesen können. Eine der Erscheinungen, die diese Zeiten hervorgebracht haben, ist die Entdeckung der Sächsischen Landschaft in Deutschland.
