Christoph Willibald Gluck's Orfeo Ed Euridice & Orphée Et Euridice
August 6, 2020 – Christoph Willibald Gluck’s Orfeo ed Euridice & Orphée et Euridice On this week’s Thursday Night Opera House, we’ll hear two different versions of the classic Orpheus and Euridice story by the same composer. Orfeo ed Euridice was the first of Christoph Willibald Gluck’s three so-called “reform” operas (the others were Alceste and Paride ed Elena), in which a “noble simplicity” was intended to replace the complicated plots and florid musical style of opera seria. The original version, in Italian and set to a libretto by Ranieri de’ Cazabigi, was first performed at Vienna’s Burgtheater on October 5, 1762, where Orpheus was sung by an alto castrato. Gluck’s revised Orphée et Euridice was premiered on August 2, 1774 at the Royal Academy of Music in Paris, in French and with Orpheus sung by a tenor. When the original Italian version of the opera was revived in the 1920s the role of Orpheus was generally sung by mezzo- sopranos, but nowadays it’s generally sung by countertenors. The musician Orfeo/Orfée (mezzo-soprano Maureen Forrester/tenor Jean-Paul Fouchécourt) mourns the death of his beloved wife Euridice (soprano Teresa Stich- Randall/soprano Catherine Dubosc). Amore/L’Amour (soprano Hanny Steffek/soprano Suzie Le Blanc) tells Orpheus that Zeus will permit Euridice to return to Earth from Hades but if she is released, he must not look back at her until they have returned to the living world. Orpheus charms the Furies with the beauty of his singing and finds Euridice among the Blessed Spirits. -

To an enthusiastic audience within the walls of the beautiful Court Capella in St Petersburg, she performs the much-loved concertos of Tchaikovsky and Brahms with the St Petersburg State Symphony Orchestra under the sensitive direction of Vladimir Lande. The remarkable intensity of her playing is just as apparent in both her encore – Ysaÿe’s Violin Sonata No. 3 – and her separate performance of Bach’s solo Partita No. 2. Tianwa Yang has quickly established herself as a leading international performer and recording artist. She has recorded critically acclaimed interpretations of the complete music for violin and piano, and for violin and orchestra, by Sarasate.
