Home Scented Candles & Home Fragrances BOUGIES D’INTÉRIEUR & PARFUMS D’INTÉRIEUR Home scented candles & home fragrances With UN SOIR À L’OPÉRA, «I want to translate into perfumes the emotion of an evening spent at the theater. A detail of the staging, a musical score, a choreographic movement... So much inspiration to create a collection of delicate and exquisite scents, an olfactory symphony composed by French perfumers to offer you this unique tribute to the masterpieces of the repertoire. » Katia Gortchakoff UN SOIR À L’OPÉRA is the marriage of two worlds: that of opera, ballet and music with that of fragrances and perfume. The inspiration for Un Soir à l’Opéra springs from the designer’s memories of accompanying her mother, an opera singer, to the Paris opera house, l’Opéra Garnier. The emotion and fascination stirred by this magical place are an endless source of sensorial interpretation.

  • Ruggero Raimondi
    Nous tenons à remercier pour leur aimable concours : Antonio Busseto et le Teatro La Fenice de Venise Alain Duault et l'Avant Scène Opéra Monique Barichella Giorgio Gualerzi Georges Farret Bernard julien Carlo Mezzadri et le Teatro Alla Scala La Société Gaumont Antenne 2. e Librairie Arthème Fayard, 1981. RUGGERO RAIMONDI 1 Sergio Segalini RUGGERO RAI MONDI Fayard/lmages du Chant En novembre 1979, avec la sortie de Don Giovanni, l'opéra fait son entrée dans le monde du cinéma. Soutenu par une formidable campagne publicitaire, le film de Joseph Losey conquiert le public parisien, puis la province, puis l'étranger. Ce n'est pourtant pas le premier film d'opéra : en 19 7 5, La Flûte enchantée de Mozart, filmée par Bergman, avait prouvé déjà avec éclat qu'en passant à l'écran l'opéra cessait enfin d'être cet art farouchement élitaire qu'il était resté jusque-là. Mais La Flûte avait été réalisée d'abord pour la télévision suédoise. Le film de Losey, lui, est conçu d'emblée pour le cinéma et tourné entièrement en extérieur, dans le sompteux décor des villas de Palladio et des fresques de Véronèse ; la bande sonore est enregistrée séparément dans l'église du Liban à Paris. Nous ne reviendrons pas sur les qualités et les défauts de cette réalisation — une idée de Rolf Liebermann — discutable et discutée. Seul importe ici un phénomène sans précédent dans l'histoire de l'opéra : en quelques semaines, un chanteur qui avait certes déchaîné l'enthousiasme à Munich, à Londres, à Milan et à New York, mais sans que sa renommée dépassât le cercle forcément restreint des amateurs d'opéra, devint une star ; le cas Raimondi était né.

  • Verdi's Simon Boccanegra: a Survey of the Discography
    Verdi’s Simon Boccanegra: A survey of the discography by Ralph Moore I think of Simon Boccanegra as something of a connoisseur’s opera, insofar as it surely contains some of Verdi’s most inspired music, yet has from its premiere rightly been criticised for its labyrinthine plot – a caricature of typically operatic complications – and its consequent lack of accessibility for audiences. For that reason, the first version soon fell out of favour after its 1857 premiere, but Verdi, no doubt with justification, thought highly enough of the music to undertake a revision twenty-three years later with the help of Arrigo Boito, and the result, the 1881 version, is the one almost invariably performed today. The most important addition was the Council Chamber Scene; the opera would be much the poorer without it, but Verdi also revised a good deal of the music to render it far more ductile and atmospheric. The opera presents an admixture of personal and political turmoil such as we encounter in other mature operas like Les vêpres siciliennes and Don Carlos, but also capitalises on two archetypal themes very prevalent in Verdi’s operas and to which he frequently returned, both of which prompted the best of his music: the depiction of a loving but tortured father-daughter relationship of the kind we also see in Luisa Miller, Rigoletto and Aida and his concern for statesmanship, as exhibited in the appeals for peace, patriotism and brotherhood, rallying calls stretching right back to his earliest operas, such as Nabucco, I Lombardi, Attila and La battaglia di Legnano.

  • The Verdi Requiem - a Partial Survey of the Discography by Ralph Moore
    The Verdi Requiem - A Partial Survey of the Discography by Ralph Moore The circumspect title of my survey arises from the fact that although over eighty recordings are listed in the Wikipedia discography (see also MWI Masterwork Index) it is not complete and there are probably many more circulating in the form of private recordings on what used to be called “pirate” labels. For instance, in my own comparatively modest collection of thirty-five recordings are a live Karajan performance from 1970 on the “Gala” label, the Naxos release conducted by Morandi and the LSO Live recording conducted by Colin Davis, none of which is included in that Wiki list. The Karajan recording is superb but, unfortunately, in muddy mono sound and while the Naxos double CD makes a good super-bargain “starter suggestion”, it is not as good as many of the recordings discussed below. Furthermore, I have discarded some dozen or so which I came to regard as “shelf-cloggers”, insofar as I had no desire to play them again, so I am able to venture an opinion and express some preferences but am by no means in any position to make definitive statements about “best” recordings, even if I desired to do so. Besides, individual taste in performers and personal convictions regarding how this work should be approached and sound will govern others’ choices; all I propose to do is provide some assessment of those recordings with which I am familiar. I have often encountered fellow music-lovers who have no taste for Verdi’s operas but still enjoy the Requiem, which is amusing as the work surely merits what some construe as the derogatory label of “Verdi’s greatest opera”.

  • Los 70 Años De Ruggero Raimondi
    PERFILES Los 70 años de Ruggero Raimondi por Carlos Fuentes y Espinosa —Entonces, ¿qué vamos a ver, mami? —Carmen, con Plácido, hijo —me respondió mi madre, operómana selectiva, verdiana por gusto y domingófila por oposición. Sorprendentemente, a mis escasos seis años, se me permitió el ingreso a la sala cinematográfica para presenciar una adaptación fílmica de la famosa ópera de Bizet que vería, por cierto, 25 veces más en la simpática temporada aquélla. Transcurrió el vertiginoso primer acto. En el segundo, apareció Escamillo. De inmediato, su presencia hipnótica me sobrecogió totalmente; su fuerza escénica arrolladora me cautivó en sus breves apariciones y generó en mí el deseo de dedicarme al canto (sólo si era bajo-barítono como él, claro estaba). El imponente torero era interpretado por el bajo boloñés Ruggero Raimondi, quien el pasado tres de octubre puso de manteles largos el mundo operístico para celebrar su septuagésimo aniversario natalicio. Ruggero Raimondi, el actor-cantante por antonomasia Ante una personalidad como la de él, es recurrente acudir a los superlativos. Pero la realidad va mucho más allá. Raimondi, independientemente de ser uno de los bajos que más grabaciones ha realizado (¡incluyendo varias versiones del mismo personaje!) o el único de su tesitura citado en la lista de Forbes —la publicación sobre magnates y sus ganancias— dedicada a los cantantes con los estipendios más jugosos, es un artista completo, idealista y verdaderamente comprometido hasta la última de sus células con su arte. En palabras del propio Raimondi: “Existen dos clases de cantantes: los que cantan notas altas y los que interpretan.

  • In Association With
    OVERTURE OPERA GUIDES in association with We are delighted to have the opportunity to work with Overture Publishing on this new series of opera guides and to build on the work English National Opera did over twenty years ago on the Calder Opera Guide Series. Masterminded by the late Nicholas John, ENO’s Literary Manager and Dramaturg for almost twenty years until his tragic early death in 1996, the original series of Opera Guides stands as a testimony to Nicholas’s remarkable energy, skills and passionate enthusiasm for the art form. As well as reworking and updating the existing titles, Overture and ENO have commissioned new titles for the series, and all of the guides will be published to coincide with repertoire being staged by the company at the London Coliseum. The first of the Overture Guides in association with ENO is published to mark a major event: a new production of Tosca in May 2010, directed by the leading American soprano Catherine Malfitano, who, in the 1980s and 1990s, made the role of Tosca her own. The production is conducted by our award-winning Music Director Edward Gardner, and the cast is led by soprano Amanda Echalaz (Tosca), Julian Gavin (Cavaradossi) and Anthony Michaels-Moore (Scarpia). We hope that these guides will prove an invaluable resource now and for years to come, and that by delving deeper into the history of an opera, the poetry of the libretto and the nuances of the score, readers’ understanding and appreciation of the opera and the art form in general will be enhanced.

  • Verdi's Don Carlo
    Verdi’s Don Carlo: a partial survey of the discography by Ralph Moore Introduction The CLOR discography lists 165 recordings of Don Carlo (or should that be Don Carlos? - more of that anon). A couple of live recordings in German were made before the first one in Italian, live from the Met 1950, with a cast headed by Jussi Bjőrling, then there was a whole slew of live and radio recordings throughout the 50’s from the Met and various Italian opera houses, punctuated by the first studio account conducted by Santini in Rome in 1954, with a stellar (and Stella) cast including Gobbi and Christoff. This still stands up remarkably well despite its age and some casting weakness. Santini was again at the helm for the next studio recording in 1961 with an even finer cast, then Solti recorded the Five Act version for Decca in 1965. For so great and popular an opera, Don Carlo has received very few studio recordings; Giulini followed in 1971, Karajan in 1978, Abbado in 1983-84, Levine in 1992 and Haitink in 1996. Only Abbado’s was in French, and Richard Farnes recorded an English version for Chandos in 2009. Thus, so far, we have had a grand total of only nine studio versions: seven in Italian, one in English and only one of the original French version, yet the catalogue is teeming with live performances. No survey can encompass so many, nor have I considered DVDs. However, I assess below some twenty-seven audio accounts, having restricted my choice to the nine studio recordings plus a sampling of live performances, including the three live recordings of original Five Act versions in French; the rest are variously either of the Four or Five Act versions in Italian.
