Christiane Libor Biography 2015-16 CHRISTIANE LIBOR, Soprano Christiane Libor was born in Berlin and studied at the ‘Musikhochschule für Musik Hans Eissler.’ She complemented her conservatory education in training with Dietrich Fisher-Dieskau, Julia Varady, Edith Mathis, Hans Hotter, Peter Schreier, and Joseph Protschka. Ms. Libor has made great music together with many of the world’s most respected conductors including Philippe Auguin, Philippe Jordan, Kurt Masur, Ingo Metzmacher, Marc Minkowski, Helmuth Rilling, Sebastian Weigle, Simone Young, and Jaap van Zweden. Performances of the 2015-16 season include Sieglinde in Die Walküre and the soprano’s first performances of Brünnhilde in Götterdämmerung, both with Oper Leipzig, under the baton of Ulf Schirmer. Ms. Libor sang a wide range of leading dramatic soprano parts in the past season including the title role of Ariadne auf Naxos at Seattle Opera and Opera Stuttgart, Brünnhilde in Die Walküre with Oper Leipzig, Fidelio in Dresden, and Senta in Der fliegende Holländer at the Washington National Opera. 2013-2014 season performances included Die Walküre in Warsaw, Baden- Baden, and Leipzig and Brünnhilde in Siegfried in Stuttgart. She bowed as Isabella in Wagner’s Das Liebesverbot in Bayreuth and Leipzig. Symphonic appearances brought her to the Berlin Radio Symphony Orchestra for Shostakovitch’s Fourteenth Symphony with Marek Janowski, to Augsburg for Strauss’ Vier Letzte Lieder conducted by Gilbert Kaplan, and to Berlin for Penderecki’s Lukas Passion. Ms. Libor gave her American operatic debut at Seattle Opera in 2012-13 in the title role of Beethoven’s Fidelio and other opera engagements that season included a return to Opernhaus Leipzig for performances as Ada in Wagner’s rarity Die Feen, Eva in Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg, and Senta in Der fliegende Holländer. Her vibrant concert diary included Bruckner’s Te Deum with the Dresden Philharmonic under the baton of Sebastian Weigle, Alice in Leo Fall’s operetta Die Dollarprinzessin with the Rundfunkorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks, an all-Wagner concert in Peking, China with the China Philharmonic, and concert performances of the title role in Verdi’s Aida with the Warsaw Philharmonic. Highlights of the recent past include the title role of Janacek’s Jenufa for Innsbruck’s Tiroler Landestheater, Das Liebesverbot in a new production for Oper Frankfurt, highly acclaimed portrayals of the title role of Ariadne auf Naxos in Innsbruck, and both Elisabeth and Venus in Tannhäuser at the Grazer Oper. Opera News heralded, “Remember the name Christiane Libor. Oper Frankfurt, highly acclaimed portrayals of the title role of Ariadne auf Naxos in Innsbruck, and both Elisabeth and Venus in Tannhäuser at the Grazer Oper. Opera News heralded, “Remember the name Christiane Libor. After much buzz in Vienna, the promise suggested by her stupendous Senta in Graz last season was fulfilled by her Ariadne…Libor unquestionably ranks as one of the greatest Ariadnes in the past three decades, and maybe even tops that august list. Most importantly is the quality of her voice, the sheer beauty of tone from top to bottom. Her soprano is huge, plumy, power and under perfect control…The Berlin-born soprano has the perfect voice for Strauss, easily negotiating low-lying passages without forcing, blooming on top notes, effortlessly pouring out tidal waves of golden tone…” She also bowed in Wagner’s rarely heard opera, Die Feen. Of her performances at the Théâtre du Châtelet under the baton of Marc Minkowski, The New York Times wrote, “the soprano Christiane Libor gives a brilliant performance as Ada, singing with a blazing top and a compelling range of colors.” Ms. Libor has performed Gutrune in Götterdämmerung under Philippe Jordan at the Paris Opera, Leonore in Fidelio at the Hamburgische Staatsoper, Berlin Staatsoper Unter den Linden, and the Opernhaus Zürich, and the Marschallin in Der Rosenkavalier at the Staatsoper Hannover and the Staatstheater Nürnberg. Additional opera performances include Don Giovanni at the Semperoper Dresden, Der Freischütz at the Komische Oper Berlin, and Dialogues des Carmélites at the Hamburgische Staatsoper. As Resident Artist of the Bard Festival in 2010, Ms. Libor joined Leon Botstein and the American Symphony Orchestra for numerous programs including Berg’s Altenberg Lieder, Schmidt’s Das Buch Mit Sieben Siegeln, and Hindemith’s Sancta Susanna.

    PRESS RELEASE opera Mgr. SILVIA HRONCOVÁ Director of Opera Faszination Wagner, a remarkable project combining opera and film, will receive its world premiere in Prague. Andreas Schager, one of the most acclaimed contemporary Heldentenors, will perform at the Forum Karlín. Prague, 4 October 2018 On 25 October, the National Theatre in Prague will host the world premiere of the unique Faszination Wagner project. Following the first night, at the Forum Karlín, it will be presented in other cities in Europe. The project, encompassing an opera performance and screening of a film, specially created for this occasion, may even be referred to as revolutionary. The evening features selected highlights from Richard Wagner’s operas, which will be performed by the State Opera Orchestra, conducted by Matthias Fletzberger, and the stellar singer Andreas Schager, one of the most acclaimed contemporary Heldentenors. The State Opera Orchestra, which is participating in a project of this kind for the very first time, will be led by the Austrian pianist and conductor Matthias Fletzberger, who said: “Wagner’s visions transcended the limits of music. His aim was to create a universal, comprehensive artwork, which would employ all the senses at the same time. Transformation of the content of live music to the form of film within the concert affords Wagner’s work a new dimension.” Along with Andreas Schager, his wife, the world-renowned violinist Lidia Baich, will appear as a soloist. The entire concept of the project, including the film, was created by the German stage and film director, screenwriter and musicologist of Turkish descent Selcuk Cara, who started his artistic career as an opera singer.

The way his „Tristan chord“ resolves towards the end of the work during Isolde’s „Liebestod“ was unthinkable in those days. The composer was well aware how difficult it would be to stage this three act work: „Only mediocre productions might save me“, he wrote to Mathilde Wesendonck. The World Premiere on June 10th 1865 in the National Theatre in Munich, at the command of King Ludwig II, was a great success. The last production of Tristan in Frankfurt opened in 2003, directed by Christof Nel. The story: Although Tristan killed Isolde’s betrothed in battle, the Irish princess nursed the wounded knight back to health, incapable of carrying out her revenge.

  • Audiovisual Recording As Registers of Opera Productions1
    Comunicação e Sociedade, vol. 31, 2017, pp. 39 – 56 doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.17231/comsoc.31(2017).2603 The world in a bottle and the archeology of staging: audiovisual recording as registers of opera productions1 Mateus Yuri Passos Abstract This work focuses on the use of the audiovisual opera recording as a document to analyze contemporary stagings labeled by the German critics as director’s theater [Regietheater]. In direc- tor’s theater, Wagner’s total artwork project [Gesamtkunstwerk] achieves a turn in meaning, for the three artistic dimensions of opera – word, music and staging – become different texts. In this paper, we discuss the limitations of audiovisual recording as a register of director’s theater opera stagings, as well as filmic resources that allow for a reconstruction of the audiovisual text of such productions with solutions that are often quite distinct from those adopted on the stage. We are in- terested above all in problematizing the equivalence that is sometimes established between a stag- ing and its recording – especially in the contemporary context of productions that frequently suffer considerable changes and are characterized by the unique aspect of each performance, always full of singular events and relatively autonomous regarding the general plan of the director. Thus, we will discuss problems and solutions of video direction of audiovisual recordings of stagings of the operatic cycle Der Ring des Nibelungen [The Ring of Nibelungo], by Richard Wagner (1813-1883). Keywords Opera recording; director’s theater; opera staging; Regietheater; Richard Wagner Resumo Este trabalho se debruça sobre o uso de gravações audiovisuais como documentos para análise de producções de ópera contemporâneas agrupadas pela crítica alemã sob o termo tea- tro de director [Regietheater].
