Osservate, leggete con me. 2 DON GIOVANNI In Italia seicento e quaranta, Deh, vieni alla finestra, o mio tesoro! in Almagna duecento e trentuna, Deh, vieni a consolar il pianto mio: cento in Francia, in Turchia novantuna, se neghi a me di dar qualche ristoro, ma in Ispagna son già mille e tre! davanti agli occhi tuoi morir vogl'io. V’han fra queste contadine, Tu ch'hai la bocca dolce più che il miele, cameriere e cittadine, tu che il zucchero porti in mezzo al core, v'han contesse, baronesse, non esser, gioia mia, con me crudele: marchesane, principesse, làsciati almen veder, mio bell'amore! e v'han donne d'ogni grado, d'ogni forma, d'ogni età.

Fin ch'han dal vino calda la testa, Vuol d'inverno la grassotta, una gran festa fa' preparar. vuol d'estate la magrotta; Se trovi in piazza qualche ragazza, è la grande maestosa, teco ancor quella cerca menar. la piccina è ognor vezzosa ... Senza alcun ordine la danza sia: Delle vecchie fa conquista chi 'l minuetto, chi la follia, per piacer di porle in lista; chi l'alemanna farai ballar. ma passion predominante Ed io frattanto, dall'altro canto è la giovin principiante. con questa e quella vo' amoreggiar. Noti si picca se sia ricca, Alla mia vista doman mattina se sia brutta, se sia bella; d'una decina devi aumentar. G.

Con interrotte voci tradia E me trascina il mio, nel quale io credo, l'intimo incanto. Inesorato Iddio. Le labbra lente, lente movea, nell'abbandono Credo in un Dio crudel che m'ha creato del sogno ardente, e allor dicea, Simile a sè e che nell'ira io nomo. con flebil suono: Dalla viltà d'un germe o d'un atòmo "Desdemona soave! Il nostro amor s'asconda. Vile son nato. Cauti vegliamo! L'estasi del ciel Son scellerato tutto m'innonda." Perchè son uomo; Seguìa più vago l'incubo blando; E sento il fango originario in me. con molle angoscia Si! questa è la mia fe’! l'interna imago quasi baciando, Credo con fermo cuor, siccome crede ei disse poscia: La vedovella al tempio, "Il rio destino impreco Che il mal ch'io penso e che da me procede, che al Moro ti donò". Per il mio destino adempio. E allora il sogno Credo che il guisto è un istrion beffardo, in cieco letargo si mutò. E nel viso e nel cuor, Che tutto è in lui bugiardo: Lagrima, bacio, sguardo, G.

  • Maestro Und Manager
    Magazin der Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde in Wien Sept/Okt 2011 Maestro und Manager Ulf Schirmer Nach Jahren der Zurückgezogenheit hat Ulf Schirmer wieder fixe Positionen angenommen – als Chefdirigent der Münchner Rundfunkorchesters und Generalmusikdirektor der Oper Leipzig, deren Intendant er seit kurzem zudem ist. Am 15. Oktober dirigiert der unprätentiöse Künstler am Pult des Wiener Concert-Vereins Schostakowitsch, Schönberg und ein neues Werk von Alfred Huber. In einem Gewerbe, in dem das Außergewöhnliche normal ist, ist Ulf Schirmer offenbar vor allem eins: außergewöhnlich normal. Geerdet, könnte man auch sagen. Das soll nicht heißen, dass der 60-Jährige kein Künstler-Ego besitzt. Selbstverständlich hat er eines. Und natürlich auch die notwendige Durchsetzungskraft und einen großen Gestaltungswillen. Sonst wäre er vermutlich nicht Dirigent, sondern Musiklehrer geworden. Oder Studienleiter statt Generalmusikdirektor und Intendant der Oper Leipzig und zudem Künstlerischer Leiter des Münchner Rundfunkorchesters. Trotzdem macht er im Gespräch einen außergewöhnlich bodenständigen Eindruck, bittet in sein Münchner Büro auf einen Kaffee statt ins Sterne- Restaurant. Keine Hektik, keine Pseudo-Wichtigkeiten. Ulf Schirmer inszeniert sich nicht. Liebe zum Unterhaltsamen Dass er ist, wie er ist, verdankt er vermutlich seinen Wurzeln: Geboren wurde er in Eschenhausen bei Bremen, einem bäuerlich geprägten Dorf, das zu Zeiten seiner Kindheit vielleicht 150 Einwohner hatte und bis heute für Straßennamen zu klein ist. Noch immer gibt es dort lediglich Hausnummern zur Orientierung. „Ländlicher als dort geht’s nicht“, lacht er. Er komme zwar nicht aus einem Musiker-Elternhaus – aus einem musikalischen gleichwohl: Der Vater hatte neben seinem Beruf mit seinen Brüdern noch Tanzmusik gespielt, was im Sohn schon früh eine große Liebe zu jeder Form von Unterhaltungsmusik entstehen ließ.

  • Strauss' Capriccio
    Richard Strauss’ Capriccio - A survey of the discography by Ralph Moore Strauss’ swansong opera Capriccio is not especially well represented in the catalogue; of the 22 complete recordings listed in the CLOR catalogue, only around a dozen have ever been available on CD and the rest were on video. Of those CD issues, several are no longer available and only three are studio recordings; two are radio broadcasts and the remainder are live or live composite stage performances. I consider here ten recordings, including all three of those studio accounts. The libretto was based on an original concept by Stefan Zweig, who had fled to the USA after the rise of the Nazis and committed suicide earlier in the year of the opera’s premiere, 1942. It was further developed by his successor as Strauss’ librettist, Josef Gregor, then Strauss himself took it over before passing it to his conductor friend Clemens Krauss – incidentally, possessor of one of the most blatant comb-overs in history - who completed it with continued input from the composer. The text is witty and more enjoyable if the libretto is to hand or you speak German. Like Strauss’ domestic comedy Intermezzo, Capriccio is wordy and conversational, but its intellectual and philosophical content is certainly higher and couched in some of the most sublime music Strauss ever penned. As a result, it is more popular and frequently performed than other of his late works. It is a vehicle for a supreme singer-actress with a creamy voice and a gift for enlivening text; noted performers who made recordings include Krauss’ second wife, Viorica Ursuleac, Lisa Della Casa, Elisabeth Schwarzkopf, Gundula Janowitz, Kiri Te Kanawa and, more recently, Renée Fleming.

  • Das Opernglas – November, 2013, Issue Summary
    http://operalively.com/forums/content.php/902-Das-Opernglas-%96-November-2013-Issue-Summary Das Opernglas – November, 2013, Issue Summary by MAuer Published on November 11th, 2013 07:01 PM http://www.opernglas.de/ Interviews Jonas Kaufmann: The Interview In this year of the Wagner and Verdi bicentennials, during which he had new recital albums devoted to each composer released on the market, the superstar tenor talks about the challenges of singing their music – and the uproar over the high C in Manrico’s stretta that surrounded his role debut in Munich this past summer. Kaufmann loves the operas of both Wagner and Verdi, and says he’d never want to have to choose between them. Both musical styles have their advantages, he explains. Verdi’s music is probably more immediately accessible than Wagner’s, which makes the former’s operas better suited as introductory pieces for someone just becoming acquainted with the art form. While Wagner’s operas do have some appealing melodies – he mentions the Ride of the Valkyries – he believes they also require more time for listeners to become accustomed to. However, once that occurs, Wagner’s music can become almost addictive; one is always discovering new layers in it. In contrast, Verdi’s music is not so complex, especially when one views the accompaniment, he says. The melody was more important to Verdi than the density of orchestral sound. However, Kaufmann doesn’t believe this makes Verdi’s music in any way inferior, or that it means his music lacks a certain intellectual appeal. He points out that Verdi enthusiasts are of all ages and economic levels.
