  • Plácido Domingo – a Short Biography
    Plácido Domingo – a short biography Plácido Domingo was born in the Barrio de Salamanca district of Madrid on January 21, 1941. He is the son of Plácido Domingo Ferrer and Pepita Embil Echaníz, two Spanish Zarzuela performers, who nurtured his early musical abilities. Domingo's father, a violinist performing for opera and zarzuela orchestra, was half Catalan and half Aragonese, while his mother, an established singer, was a Basque. After moving to Mexico at the age of 8, Plácido Domingo went to Mexico City’s Conservatory of Music to study piano and conducting, but eventually was sidetracked into vocal training after his voice was discovered. The highly gifted singer had his first professional engagement as accompanist to his mother in a concert at Mérida, Yucatan, in 1957. He soon achieved great acclaim at international level. Challenged by cosmopolitan groups and new roles In 1961, Domingo made his operatic debut in a leading role as Alfredo in La Traviata at Monterrey. The performance of La Traviata included a baritone singing in Hungarian, a soprano in German, a tenor in Italian, and the chorus in Hebrew. Domingo credits this cosmopolitan group for improving his abilities in several languages. At the end of 1962, he signed a six month contract with the Israel National Opera in Tel Aviv but later extended the contract and stayed for two and a half years, singing in 280 performances and incorporating 12 different roles. Domingo has sung and continues to sing in every important Opera House in the world including the Metropolitan Opera in New York, Milan’s La Scala, the Vienna State Opera, London's Covent Garden, Paris' Bastille Opera, the San Francisco Opera, Chicago's Lyric Opera, the Washington National Opera, the Los Angeles Opera, the Teatro del Liceu in Barcelona, Teatro Colon in Buenos Aires, the Real in Madrid, and at the Bayreuth and Salzburg Festivals.

  • La Traviata’ Makes for a Chilly Evening in LA
    OperaOnline.us Worldwide reviews for a worldwide audience Act II party scene Photo: Robert Millard Marta Domingo’s new 1920s ‘La Traviata’ makes for a chilly evening in LA. GIUSEPPE VERDI LA TRAVIATA LOS ANGELES OPERA JUNE 13, 2006 By Carol Jean Delmar OperaOnline.us Although Los Angeles Opera’s new production of “La Traviata” boasts some pretty fancy chirping, “it just ain’t got no soul” -- even though there is a jazz band on the stage of the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in the Act II party sequence. It’s a young “Traviata.” Violetta is no longer the Parisian courtesan Verdi patterned after Marie Duplessis, renamed Marguerite Gautier, in Alexandre Dumas’ “La Dame aux Camélias,” a memoristic novel, then play, which Dumas wrote based on his ill-fated love affair with Duplessis, who died of tuberculosis in 1847 at the age of 23. Because of the morés of the times, early productions of “Traviata” were set in the 1700s, since audiences simply wouldn’t tolerate an opera based on the life of a young man of class having a steady relationship with a fallen woman, even if she had indeed acquired the social graces of the élite. Of course later productions were modernized to the mid-1800s. But Marta Domingo’s new production is far more youthful. She has moved the action to the 1920s. And although the synopsis in the program places it in Paris, Domingo clearly assigns it to the flapper era in the United States, according to her program note. The production has a decidedly American flair to it, with art-deco disco touches, mirrored spinning balls hanging from the rafters, and Ziegfield Follies-type dancers flitting around the stage.

  • Soprano Eglise Gutiérrez Returns to Florida Grand Opera in Donizetti's
    Media Contact: Justin Moss, [email protected] , 305-854-1643 ext. 1600 Soprano Eglise Gutiérrez returns to Florida Grand Opera in Donizetti’s Lucia di Lammermoor Miami, FL – January 4, 2010. Florida Grand Opera’s 2009-10 season continues in January with the return of soprano Eglise Gutiérrez in the title role of a new production of Donizetti’s Lucia di Lammermoor. This bell-canto masterpiece is based on Sir Walter Scott’s historical novel, The Bride of Lammermoor, and tells the story of a wedding where celebration turns to horror as the young bride enters in her bloodstained nightgown clutching the knife with which she has killed her new husband. The ensuing mad scene is arguably the most famous in all of opera, and has served as a showcase for the world’s leading coloratura sopranos. This new Florida Grand Opera production is designed by André Barbe, and directed by Renaud Doucet. Eglise Gutiérrez’s highly acclaimed performances of Violetta in FGO’s 2008 production of La traviata were a highlight of the season, and she is becoming internationally recognized as one of the leading bel canto sopranos. The months prior to her FGO appearance as Lucia will find her in productions at Opéra de Montréal, the Savonlinna Festival, the Ravinia Festival, the Royal Opera House Covent Garden, Seattle Opera, and the Dresden Opera. The up and coming Mexican soprano María Alejandres will perform the title role of Lucia di Lammermoor on January 27 and 30, prior to her performances of Juliette in Roméo et Juliette at the Royal Opera House Covent Garden.
