Saverio Clemente Andrea De Amici Luca Targetti Eleonora Buratto, from Mantua, is one of the most highly acclaimed lyric sopranos in the world. Her career began in 2009 singing as Creusa in Demofoonte, conducted by Riccardo Muti at the Salzburg Festival, Opéra Garnier and the Ravenna Festival. In the years that followed she sang under Maestro Muti as Susanna in the opera I Due Figaro by Mercadante, as Norina in Don Pasquale, Amelia in Simon Boccanegra, Alice in Falstaff and Countess Almaviva in Le Nozze di Figaro. At the start of 2015 she was Corinna at the Dutch National Opera in Amsterdam in Il Viaggio a Reims, directed by Damiano Michieletto and conducted by Stefano Montanari. Since then her international career has continued to develop. That same year she sang for the first time both as Liù and as Countess Almaviva and she also inaugurated the Teatro San Carlo season in Naples singing as Micaela in Carmen conducted by Zubin Mehta. Since 2016 she has made other debuts which have become signature roles in her Eleonora Buratto repertoire such as Mimì at the Liceu in Barcelona, Donna Anna at Soprano the Aix-en-Provence Festival, Elettra in Idomeneo at the Teatro Real in Madrid (available worldwide from spring 2020 on Dvd and Bd by Opus Arte) and Luisa Miller once again at the Liceu. She has regularly made her return, amongst other theatres, to the Teatro Real in Madrid, Liceu in Barcelona, Lyric Opera in Chicago, Dutch National Opera, Teatro San Carlo in Naples, the Metropolitan Opera and the Royal Opera House and has sung in concert performances and festivals of prestige, including Perm where in 2019 she sang for the first time under conductor Teodor Currentzis, Maggio Musicale Fiorentino where she sang Mahler conducted by Daniele Gatti, Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia for Rossini's Stabat Mater and the Verdi Requiem, Teatro San Carlo in Naples with the Vier letzte Lieder conducted by Michele Mariotti and, again in the domain of concert performances which she particularly enjoys, she took part in the celebrations for the anniversary of Rossini's death singing in Luxembourg and Vienna in the Petite Messe Solennelle conducted by Gustavo Gimeno (the CD was released by Pentatone in 2019). In the early months of 2020 she was due to debut as Fiordiligi in Tokyo and Rusalka in Amsterdam (the first Italian soprano to sing the full opera). Unfortunately these productions have been cancelled or postponed as a result of the health emergency. In October 2020 she is due to make her role and theatre debut as Elvira in Ernani at the Teatro Regio Parma during the Verdi Festival where she is also due to sing in the Verdi Requiem. A new production of Simon Boccanegra at the Deutsche Oper Berlin and La Bohème at the New York Metropolitan Opera stand out amongst her engagements for the 2020/2021 season.

(Check local listings.) In this Rossini classic based on the work by Sir Walter Scott, DiDonato sings the title role of Elena, the lady of the lake pursued by two men, with Flórez in the role of Giacomo, the benevolent king of Scotland. Michele Mariotti , last featured in the Great Performance at the Met broadcast of Rigoletto , conducts debuting Scottish director Paul Curran's staging, a co-production with Santa Fe Opera. The cast also includes Daniela Barcellona in the trouser role of Malcolm, John Osborn as Rodrigo, and Oren Gradus as Duglas. "The wondrous Ms. DiDonato and Mr. Mariotti, the fast-rising young Italian conductor, seemed almost in competition to see who could make music with more delicacy,” noted The New York Times earlier this year, and “Mr. Mariotti drew hushed gentle and transparent playing from the inspired Met orchestra.” And NY Classical Review raved, "Joyce DiDonato…was beyond perfect..

Gioachino Rossini
MATILDE DI SHABRAN GIOACHINO ROSSINI Olga Peretyatko Juan Diego Flórez Paolo Bordogna Anna Goryachova Nicola Alaimo Michele Mariotti Orchestra del Teatro Comunale di Bologna GIOACHINO ROSSINI MATILDE DI SHABRAN Conductor Michele Mariotti “There truly is a Rossini miracle!” (Deutschlandradio). Acclaiming Orchestra Orchestra del Teatro the mastery of tenorissimo Juan Diego Flórez and the breathtaking Comunale di Bologna young soprano Olga Peretyatko in the lead roles, the press hailed Chorus Coro del Teatro Comunale di Bologna the premiere of Rossini’s Matilde di Shabran at the Rossini Opera Chorus Master Lorenzo Fratini Festival in Pesaro as the “high point of the festival” (the Berlin daily Der Tagesspiegel). Matilde di Shabran Olga Peretyatko Matilde di Shabran was given its world premiere performance in Edoardo Anna Goryachova Rome in 1821. A genuine international hit, it was staged in Vienna, Raimondo Lopez Marco Filippo Romano London, Paris, New York and throughout Italy all before 1830. The Corradino Juan Diego Flórez music of Rossini’s last “opera semiseria” – thus half serious and half Ginardo Simon Orfila comic – contains a succession of beguiling ensemble pieces. The plot Aliprando Nicola Alaimo revolves around the knight Corradino, who has withdrawn to his castle Isidoro Paolo Bordogna and professes to hate his fellow humans. When he meets Matilde di Contessa d’Arco Chiara Chialli Shabran, however, he experiences unknown emotions that have Egoldo Giorgio Misseri nothing to do with hatred... Rodrigo Luca Visani Leading the Orchestra del Teatro Comunale di Bologna, conductor Staged by Mario Martone Michele Mariotti commands an ideal ensemble of singers: while Juan Diego Flórez, “perhaps the best Rossini tenor of our time” Video Director Tiziano Mancini (Deutschlandradio), sings the role of Corradino, that of Matilde is “gorgeously sung by Olga Peretyatko” (The New York Times).

Salzburg-Falstaff-2013.Pdf
LEADING TEAM ZUR INSZENIERUNG „Ich mache keine Opera buffa, sondern stelle einen Typen dar. Mein Falstaff ist nicht nur derjenige, der in den Lustigen Weibern von Windsor von Shakespeare vorkommt, wo er bloß ein Narr ist und sich von den Zubin Mehta, Musikalische Leitung Frauen betrügen lässt, sondern auch so, wie er unter den beiden Heinrichs [d. h. in den beiden Teilen von Damiano Michieletto, Regie Shakespeares Henry IV] war.“ Verdis Bemerkung, von Italo Pizzi in seinen Memorie verdiane (1901) überliefert, gibt bündig wieder, worum es dem Komponisten in seiner letzten Oper Falstaff ging: nicht um Paolo Fantin, Bühne die Wiederbelebung einer lustigen oder lächerlichen Figur in der Tradition der alten italienischen Buffa- Oper, sondern – wie sollte es beim großen Humanisten Verdi anders sein? – um das Porträt eines Carla Teti, Kostüme menschlichen Charakters in allen seinen Schattierungen. Arrigo Boito, dem Verdi seit der Otello-Premiere Alessandro Carletti, Licht zunehmend freundschaftlich verbunden war, wusste glücklicherweise recht genau, was für ein Libretto nötig war, um den bald 80-Jährigen zu einer weiteren gemeinsamen Arbeit zu motivieren. So ist es vor allem sein rocafilm, Video Verdienst, dass sich Verdi den jahrzehntelang gehegten Wunsch, eine komische Oper zu komponieren, doch noch erfüllen konnte. „Boito hat mir eine lyrische Komödie geschrieben, die keiner anderen gleicht“, Christian Arseni, Dramaturgie berichtete er 1890 in einem Brief. Auch wenn die Oper, die am 9. Februar 1893 an der Mailänder Scala ihre Walter Zeh, Choreinstudierung Uraufführung erlebte, eine gewisse Portion an konventioneller Situationskomik enthält, so ist sie doch vor allem eine Charakterkomödie – mit Musik, die in der Zeichnung der Figuren virtuos zwischen innerer Anteilnahme und ironischer Distanz changiert.

MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL Recordings of the Year 2019
MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL Recordings Of The Year 2019 This is the seventeenth year that MusicWeb International has asked its reviewing team to nominate their recordings of the year. Reviewers are not restricted to discs they had reviewed, but the choices must have been reviewed on MWI in the last 12 months (December 2018-November 2019). The 128 selections have come from 27 members of the team and 65 different labels, the choices reflecting as usual, the great diversity of music and sources; I say that every year, but still the spread of choices surprises and pleases me. Of the selections, one has received three nominations: An English Coronation on Signum Classics and ten have received two nominations: Gounod’s Faust on Bru Zane Matthias Goerne’s Schumann Lieder on Harmonia Mundi Prokofiev’s Romeo & Juliet choreographed by John Cranko on C Major Marx’s Herbstymphonie on CPO Weinberg symphonies on DG Shostakovich piano works on Hyperion Late Beethoven sonatas on Hyperion Korngold orchestral works on Chandos Coates orchestral works on Chandos Music connected to Leonardo da Vinci on Alpha Hyperion was this year’s leading label with nine nominations, just ahead of C Major with eight. MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL RECORDING OF THE YEAR In this twelve month period, we published more than 2300 reviews. There is no easy or entirely satisfactory way of choosing one above all others as our Recording of the Year, but this year one recording in particular put itself forward as the obvious candidate. An English Coronation 1902-1953 Simon Russell Beale, Rowan Pierce, Matthew Martin, Gabrieli Consort; Gabrieli Roar; Gabrieli Players; Chetham’s Symphonic Brass Ensemble/Paul McCreesh rec.
