  • Songs by Donizefti Composed for the Ferretti Family; There Are Numerous Mistakes
    TUTTO FERRETTI? During a recent visit to Italy I was pleased to find a handsome volume on Jacopo Fenetli. It is a series of papers resulting fiom a conference held 1996 by' Accqdemia Nozionale di Sanla Cecilia, Rome, and published last year. The contents are useful and include transcriptions of three hitherto uncatalogued songs by Donizefti composed for the Ferretti family; there are numerous mistakes. Are these Donizetti"s or the editor's? I was surprised to find that the deep sense of huniour shared by composer and librettist is not explored or the oiginality of Ferretti's own thought, as may be noted, for example, in the text of La cenerentolq . The last contribution is by Gianni Legger and is a listing of Ferretti's works entitled Tuno Ferreal? This is a fascinating list but ignores the cantata w tten by Ferretti and set to music by Donizetti and listed in my 1991 Donizetti, f,mbet A149, Qual.fremito soave. Sinoe lhe cantata throws light on the lost cafiala Il /ato (which is cataloeged), the following may be of interest to readers. Owners of the a/ll may safely add Al49 to Legger's list. When Ian Caddy and I were writing to libraries enquiring whether they had an).thing of inter€st by Mayr in their cataloques, we received a kind letter dated 3:9:86 ftom Prof Piero Meldini, director of lhe Biblioteca Civica Gambalungo, Rimini. No, he had no Malr ol interest, but perhaps the enclosed text of a Donizetti,/Ferretti cantata would be. If only all libraries were so caring over serious enquiriesl I am now glad to make available the full text I wrote in 1986 which was later reduced for my book, see pages 36 and 37.

He turned opera in a new direction by conceiving the whole score on the basis of a compelling dramatic conception involving naturalistic effects, orchestration, and musical form, thereby pointing the way for such opera composers as Rossini, Wagner, Berlioz, and Meyerbeer. As a grand opera it was ahead of its time and was full of spectacular scenes showing a Vestal Virgin’s forbidden love for a Roman general; it made Spontini the most important composer of the Napoleonic period. Here directing his first opera, the French stage director Éric Lacascade focuses on a highly topical subject: ‘More than passionate love, what is at stake in this opera is the liberation of a woman who frees herself from the power of religious authority.’ COMPOSER & WORK Born in 1774 in Italy, Gaspare Spontini (1774-1851) imposed a new style to French music, mixing his Neapolitan inspiration to the genre of French lyric tragedy and thus creating what may be termed as Grand Historic Opera. The Italian composer, who became French in 1817, began a brilliant career in Rome and Venice after his studies at the Royal Conservatory of Naples.

    Reading at the Opera: Music and Literary Culture in Early Nineteenth-Century Italy By Edward Lee Jacobson A dissertation submitted in partial satisfacation of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Mary Ann Smart, Chair Professor James Q. Davies Professor Ian Duncan Professor Nicholas Mathew Summer 2020 Abstract Reading at the Opera: Music and Literary Culture in Early Nineteenth-Century Italy by Edward Lee Jacobson Doctor of Philosophy in Music University of California, Berkeley Professor Mary Ann Smart, Chair This dissertation emerged out of an archival study of Italian opera libretti published between 1800 and 1835. Many of these libretti, in contrast to their eighteenth- century counterparts, contain lengthy historical introductions, extended scenic descriptions, anthropological footnotes, and even bibliographies, all of which suggest that many operas depended on the absorption of a printed text to inflect or supplement the spectacle onstage. This dissertation thus explores how literature— and, specifically, the act of reading—shaped the composition and early reception of works by Gioachino Rossini, Vincenzo Bellini, Gaetano Donizetti, and their contemporaries. Rather than offering a straightforward comparative study between literary and musical texts, the various chapters track the often elusive ways that literature and music commingle in the consumption of opera by exploring a series of modes through which Italians engaged with their national past. In doing so, the dissertation follows recent, anthropologically inspired studies that have focused on spectatorship, embodiment, and attention. But while these chapters attempt to reconstruct the perceptive filters that educated classes would have brought to the opera, they also reject the historicist fantasy that spectator experience can ever be recovered, arguing instead that great rewards can be found in a sympathetic hearing of music as it appears to us today.

(by tiik kditor.) It will be seen, that the principle object of this work is to place that part of the entertainment at the Lyric Theatres or Opera, called the Ballet, on a new basis. This, the eminent artiste, who is the author of this work, has already effected in his own country, where he is patronized and supported by the government, and is there undoubtedly the first in his profession, as he is perhaps in Europe. The true object of the Ballet appears to be the Beautiful in motion, supported by expressive and well-adapted music. This may be effected in two ways, by two classes of movements the one is quick, vehement and joyous, and is no other than Dancing—but the other class of motions is a far different tiling ; it is no less than a mute expression of feelings, passions, ideas, intentions, or any other sensations belonging to a reasonable being—this is properly termed Pantomime, and must also be sus- tained by music, which now becomes a kind of explanatory voice ; and while it greatly assists the Mime, when well adapted to the subject to be ex- pressed by his gestures, it produces upon the mind and feelings of the spectator an extraordinary effect.

  • "Casta Diva" from Bellini's
    “Casta Diva” from Bellini's “Norma”--Rosa Ponselle; accompanied by the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra and Chorus, conducted by Giulio Setti (December 31, 1928 and January 30, 1929) Added to the National Registry: 2007 Essay by Judy Tsou (guest post)* Rosa Ponselle “Casta Diva” is the most famous aria of Vincenzo Bellini’s “Norma” (1831). It is sung by the title character, a Druidess or priestess of the Gauls, in the first act. The opera takes place in Gaul between 100 and 50 BCE when the Romans were occupiers. The Gauls want Norma to declare war on the Romans, who have been oppressing them. Norma is hesitant to do so because she is secretly in love with Pollione, the Roman proconsul, and with whom she has borne two children. She assuages the people’s anger and convinces them that this is not the right time to revolt. She asserts that the Romans will eventually fall by their own doing, and the Gauls do not need to rise up now. It is at this point that Norma sings “Casta Diva,” a prayer to the moon goddess for peace, and eventually, conquering the Romans. When things between her and Pollione go sour, Norma tries to kill their children but ultimately cannot bring herself to do so. Eventually, she confesses her relationship with Pollione and sacrifices herself on the funeral pyre of her lover. “Norma” was the first of two operas commissioned in 1830 for which Bellini was paid an unprecedented 12,000 lire. “Norma” premiered on December 26, 1831 at La Scala, and the second opera, “Beatrice di Tenda,” premiered in 1833, but in Venice (La Fenice).
