  • Settimane Musicali Di Stresa
    PROGRAMMA UFFICIALE SETTIMANE MUSICALI DI STRESA 26 AGOSTO - 16 SETTEMBRE 1963 TEATRO DEL PALAZZO DEI CONGRESSI SALONE DEGLI ARAZZI DI PALAZZO BORROMEO ALL'ISOLA BELLA L’ Orchestra della Scala La consuetudine milanese, invalsa a mezzo il. Settecento, ed àuspice Giambattista Sanmartini, di regolari e frequenti concerti orchestrali nel cortile del Palazzo Sforzesco, se ebbe storico rilievo nella formazione della sinfonia, non mancò di influire anche sulla costituzione dell’or­ chestra destinata agli spettacoli lirici e coreografici della Scala: e invero, sin dall’inaugurazione del teatro — avvenuta nel 1778 con /’Europa Ri­ conosciuta di Salieri — l’orchestra scaligera presenta un organico di settanta elementi, cifra assai superiore allo standard teatrale dell’epoca. Gli statuti del 1802 e l’assunzione di uno stabile maestro al cembalo nella persona del Lavigna, maestro di Verdi, ne vanno poi progressi­ vamente migliorando l’efficienza, sì che nel 1830 l’inglese William Staf- ford può constatare come l’orchestra della Scala sia « migliore e più numerosa che in qualsiasi altra città italiana ». Stabilizzatosi sugli ottanta elementi, l’organico viene elevato nel 18J5 a cento da Franco Faccio: il quale estende insieme l’attività dell’or­ chestra al settore sinfonico, allora pressoché sconosciuto in Italia. Al­ l’Esposizione Universale di Parigi (1878) la rinnovata orchestra della Scala incontra entusiastiche accoglienze; l’anno seguente si costituisce la Società Orchestrale della Scala, e le stagioni liriche avranno perma nenie complemento sinfonico. Applaudita nelle principali città d’Italia, ma ancora in Francia, in Gran Bretagna e in Svizzera, l’orchestra della Scala, nel quarantennio precedente la prima guerra mondiale, vedrà sul podio i pionieri Faccio, Mancinelli e Martucci, seguiti da Toscanini, Guarnieri, Serafin, Mascagni, Gui, Marinuzzi; ed ospiti stranieri innu­ meri, da Lamoureux a Nikisch, da Fri ed a Schuricht.

  • Reissues from Ricercar, Eloquence and Beulah - January 2018 by Brian Wilson
    Reissues from Ricercar, Eloquence and Beulah - January 2018 By Brian Wilson I would normally have included these reissues in one of the Second Thoughts and Short Reviews which I write with Dan Morgan, but the latest edition is already quite full, and I thought that these releases merited a separate article to themselves. The three series occupy different niches: the Ricercar, labelled Ricercar con Echo, are releases of earlier CD offerings from the late 1980s to the 2000s; Eloquence bring recordings from the Universal group of labels, Decca, DG and Philips; the Beulah are download only reissues of classic material from LP and, in some cases, 78s. Beulah downloads can be obtained from iTunes and Amazon, but in mp3 and usually at less than the full 320kbs. It sometimes takes a little longer before they appear, at the same price of £7.99, from Qobuz, but it’s worth waiting to hear them in the same quality as my press previews. Though sourced from disc rather than master tape, the quality is almost always as high as, for example, the same material reissued by Decca on Eloquence, often differently coupled. No booklet is ever included. Ricercar seem to be incapable of offering decent quality review previews – they tell me that it isn’t feasible. Though they had at least begun to encode their mp3 at the full 320kbs, the present batch came at an unacceptably low 192kbs – no better than BBC Radio 3 on DAB. I expect that these reissues will become available in better sound, presumably from eclassical.com; I’ll report back if and when that happens.
