It was also a huge failure. Herbert wrote for the Rostand Cyrano. Francis Wilson and his librettist Stuart Reed (actually Harry B. Smith) decided the story was too sad and wrote a "happy ending." Twenty-eight performances after it opened it closed to be forgotten for 100 years. Its libretto fortunately lost forever. Fortunately, librettist Alyce Mott started from scratch, returned to the original Rostand play and wrote a new libretto to the existing score. Ask for a perusal of this beautiful PV and libretto and you will want it immediately. As this work is pre-1900, Cyrano is a bass, Christian a tenor and Roxanne a very rare for Herbert mezzo. Greatest selling point -- Cyrano is a classic tragedy and your audience already knows the Copyright ©2021 - VHSource, LLC - http://vherbert.com _PN_PAGE 1 _PN_OF 2 story. Imagine their surprise and wonder when they then hear the score.

  • Cyrano De Bergerac, by Edmond Rostand
    Cyrano de Bergerac, by Edmond Rostand In A Nutshell Cyrano de Bergerac is a play about an eloquent, talented, and brave, but physically unappealing, man and his love for a beautiful woman, Roxane. Playwright Edmond Rostand wrote Cyrano de Bergerac as a comedy, and something of a satire of the overly romanticized literature of France in the 1600s (literature such as Alexandre Dumas’s The Three Musketeers, which was published in 1844). As such, you’ll find it chock-full of historical references to writers, royalty, philosophers, dramatists, and scientists of the time. Light-hearted in nature, this work is full of frivolous pomp and overblown dialogue. Adding to its showy, intentionally grandiose quality is the form of the prose: rhyming couplets of twelve syllables per line in the original French. The translated meter you often see in English is iambic pentameter, which, we all know, is a party waiting to happen. Published in French in 1897, Cyrano de Bergerac hit the stages of Paris to instant acclaim. Under the flourishes of renowned stage actor Constant Coquelin (to whom Rostand dedicated his play), Cyrano came to life. Basing his main character on a historical figure of the same name, Rostand accurately recounts much of the real Cyrano’s life – as told by Le Bret and a number of other biographers – in his beloved play. The real Cyrano de Bergerac was a French dramatist who lived from 1619-1655, which means Rostand got his dates correct in writing his play. De Bergerac really did fight at the Siege of Arras in 1640 and died in 1655.

  • Silent Film Music and the Theatre Organ Thomas J. Mathiesen
    Silent Film Music and the Theatre Organ Thomas J. Mathiesen Introduction Until the 1980s, the community of musical scholars in general regarded film music-and especially music for the silent films-as insignificant and uninteresting. Film music, it seemed, was utili­ tarian, commercial, trite, and manipulative. Moreover, because it was film music rather than film music, it could not claim the musical integrity required of artworks worthy of study. If film music in general was denigrated, the theatre organ was regarded in serious musical circles as a particular aberration, not only because of the type of music it was intended to play but also because it represented the exact opposite of the characteristics espoused by the Orgelbewegung of the twentieth century. To make matters worse, many of the grand old motion picture theatres were torn down in the fifties and sixties, their music libraries and theatre organs sold off piecemeal or destroyed. With a few obvious exceptions (such as the installation at Radio City Music Hall in New (c) 1991 Indiana Theory Review 82 Indiana Theory Review Vol. 11 York Cityl), it became increasingly difficult to hear a theatre organ in anything like its original acoustic setting. The theatre organ might have disappeared altogether under the depredations of time and changing taste had it not been for groups of amateurs that restored and maintained some of the instruments in theatres or purchased and installed them in other locations. The American Association of Theatre Organ Enthusiasts (now American Theatre Organ Society [ATOS]) was established on 8 February 1955,2 and by 1962, there were thirteen chapters spread across the country.

On the first day of class, there will be a Reading Quiz to test your knowledge of this guide and your comprehension of the play’s main events and characters. If you are in the honors section, you will also write a Timed Writing essay the first week of school. After school starts, we will analyze the play in class through discussions and various writing assignments. We will conclude the unit by watching a French film adaptation and comparing it to the play. By the way, my class is a No Spoiler Zone. This means that you may NOT spoil significant plot events to classmates who have not yet read the book. If you have questions about the reading this summer, please email me at [email protected]. I’ll see you in the fall! - Mrs. Lee 1 Introduction Cyrano de Bergerac is a 5-act play by French dramatist and poet Edmond Rostand (1868-1918).

[email protected] Tel. 4815-8880 int 188 y 117, int 137 (FAX) www.teatrocervantes.gob.ar 2 CP Introducción 5 Misión CYRANO DE Desde nuestro único Teatro Nacional encaramos el desafío de pensar el teatro MÁS ACÁ y lo nacional en toda su complejidad. Entendemos que el teatro nacional es una institución que va mucho más allá del edificio del Teatro Cervantes: abarca todo el país. No como centro irradiador, de la capital al interior; no como lugar de con- vergencia, del interior a la capital, sino como un nodo en una vasta red: la red de las prácticas teatrales del país. Estas prácticas definen y amplían nuestro ámbito de acción. No puede restringir- se el sentido de teatro nacional a las obras de autor argentino. Teatro nacional es el teatro que se hace en el país, o para el país, o que es relevante para el país, y que puede contribuir a agitar o transformar el país. A crearlo, en suma. Pensamos que un teatro nacional debe ser una caja de resonancia de los conflic- tos estéticos y sociales actuales, y que estos deben orientar nuestra mirada sobre el pasado y nuestra tradición. Más que un teatro-museo, queremos un teatro-re- flejo del presente y, con suerte, un teatro-reloj que adelante lo que vendrá.

  • CHAD SHELTON, Tenor
    CHAD SHELTON, tenor Opera News praises tenor Chad Shelton for one of his trademark roles, claiming that his “Don José was the dramatic heart of this production; this was a performance that grew in complexity as he struggled to recon- cile the forces of loyalty, lust and fate. Shelton owned the final scene, as his character descended into despair fueled by psychotic obsession. His bright tone amplified the intensity of the last gripping moments.” In the 2016-17 season, he makes returns to the Grand Théâtre de Genève for his first performances of Sir Edgar Aubry in Der Vampyr and Houston Grand Opera to reprise Chairman Mao in Adams’ Nixon in China and sings Don Jose in Carmen on tour in Japan as a guest artist of the Seiji Ozawa Music Academy Opera Project. He also sings his first perfor- mances of Mahler’s Das Lied von der Erde with the Phoenix Symphony and returns to the roster of the Metropolitan Opera for its production of Cyrano de Bergerac. Last season, he retured to Houston Grand Opera for Cavardossi in Tosca and to create the role of Charles II in the world premiere of Carlisle Floyd’s Prince of Players. He made his Metropolitan Opera debut as Rodrigo in a new production of Otello and also joined the company for Elektra in addition to returning to one of his most fre- quently performed roles, Alfredo in La traviata, with Pensacola Opera. He has joined the Opéra National de Lorraine numerous times, including for the title role of Idomeneo, Giasone in Cherubini’s Medea, Don Jose in Carmen, Jack in Gerald Barry’s The Importance of Being Earnest, Lysander in A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Guido Bardi in Eine floren- tinische Tragödie, Lechmere in Owen Wingrave, Tamino in Die Zauber- flöte, and the title role of Candide.
