Real 2007.Qxd MINISTERIO DE CULTURA Y JUVENTUD MEMORIA INSTITUCIONAL 2006 - 2007 San José, Costa Rica ISSN: 1659-3065 EDICIÓN Y COORDINACIÓN Ileana González Álvarez Ricardo Alfaro Ocampo Asesoría de Planificación DISEÑO GRÁFICO Minor Artavia Jiménez FOTOGRAFÍAS DEL CENTRO NACIONAL DE LA CULTURA Andrés Fernández Ramirez Glenda Quirós Ortiz Nuestro agradecimiento a todas las personas de los diferentes Departamentos y Órganos Desconcentrados del Ministerio de Cultura y Juventud, por la ayuda brindada para la elaboración de esta Memoria Institucional. PRESENTACIÓN a Administración Arias ha puesto nuevamente a la cultura como Lelemento clave para el desarrollo del país. Asumió el compromiso de recuperar paulatinamente el 1% del presupuesto nacional para la cultura y de llevar al Ministerio al Siglo XXI. En esta línea se cuenta con 10 acciones estratégicas dirigidas a fortalecer el papel que tiene la actividad cultural para promover el desarrollo social, la sostenibilidad ambiental, el desarrollo creativo y productivo y la imagen internacional de Costa Rica. Iniciamos programas claves como la creación del Sistema Nacional de Escuelas de Música, que busca llevar la formación musical a todas las provincias del país y llegar a 5.000 niños y jóvenes. También creamos el Fondo de Becas para Proyectos Artísticos y de Desarrollo Comunal (PROARTES), para apoyar, promover, difundir, preservar e incrementar las manifestaciones artísticas y culturales escénicas de Costa Rica, a través del apoyo económico que fomente iniciativas, en todo el país, concebidas por el sector cultural y artístico independiente. El Proyecto Desarrollo Cultural Comunitario ha sido uno de los de mayor avance durante este primer año de gestión. La Compañía Nacional de Danza completó una amplia gira con la que llegó a más de 20 comunidades a lo largo y ancho del país. Asignamos 5 veces más presupuesto a los promotores regionales de cultura para actividades culturales en su zona. También los programas de artes escénicas obtuvieron un refuerzo presupuestario y han programado más de 80 talleres en todo el país en danza y teatro. El programa Costa Rica Audiovisual para aumentar la cantidad, calidad y continuidad de la producción audiovisual nacional y el público que la disfruta da sus primeros pasos. Este proyecto fomenta el desarrollo de este medio, tanto en el contenido cultural, como en su capacidad de impulsar y crear micro, pequeñas y medianas empresas creativas con potencial nacional y de exportación de productos y servicios. Contamos con el apoyo del Ministerio de Comercio Exterior y su adscrita PROCOMER, que ha accedido a fomentar a las empresas culturales como una fuente de exportación de productos y servicios nacionales. El Centro para las Artes y la Tecnología La Aduana va por buen camino. Contratamos una firma para habilitar el edificio de la antigua Aduana para ferias, exposiciones y conciertos y se espera que el refuerzo estructural esté listo en diciembre del 2007, para que los costarricenses disfruten ese hermoso espacio cultural con las condiciones de seguridad que requiere el país. Cumplimos el compromiso asumido en el Consejo de Gobierno realizando en Ciudad Quesada el Festival Nacional de las Artes (FNA) en San Carlos. Durante nueve días, se presentaron más de 2.500 artistas con una programación de 10 a.m. a 11:30 p.m. La mayoría de las actividades se dieron en Ciudad Quesada: en el parque, el hospital, el hospicio de ancianos, la casa de la cultura en construcción, el mercado, la plaza de ferias y muchos otros espacios públicos. También se llevó una caravana cultural a las comunidades de los Chiles, Pital, Florencia y Bijagua. Las comunidades de la zona norte participaron masivamente en el festival y lo hicieron suyo, demostrando que la cultura convoca a convivir en ciudadanía, a gozar sanamente y a pasar días de fiesta sin disturbios ni abusos. En este primer primer año el Ministerio ha llegado a todas las regiones del país y ha dado una señal de que se tendrá una cultura vibrante para el desarrollo del país. Ha comprobado, con el FNA en San Carlos, que la cultura une y nos invita a convivir y a participar en paz.

    HAWAII OPERA THEATRE By Giuseppe Verdi February 1, 3 & 5, 2008 NEAL S. BLAISDELL CONCERT HALL oahu 2118 kalakaua avenue 808.921.1000, ala moana center 808.942.1148 maui the shops at wailea 808.879.1060 shop gucci.com Director’s Notes by HENRY G. AKINA Don Carlo is often considered Verdi’s most Wagnerian work. It makes use of the evolving structure of the Musiktheater, made so popular by Wagner, and introduces several motives that can be seen almost as Wagnerian leitmotifs. Verdi creates an entire political world set in Spain during the reign of Philip II. The opera follows four members of the Habsburg family: Philip II, King of all the world, son of an Emperor and ruler of a kingdom that “the sun never sets upon." Champion of the Catholic faith, devoted ruler and supporter of the Inquisition. This man rules his empire from a small room in the bowels of the Escurial palace. Likened by his enemies to a spider at the center of its web. At the time of the opera he has married three times. His current wife he married in spite of the fact that she had originally been promised to his son, Don Carlo. This marriage is one of the greatest burdens of his life. He does not know how to love. He is fiercely anti-protestant. His presence is felt oppressively in Flanders, a hot-bed of this new and troublesome movement. He has unleashed his armies and the Inquisition upon them. Elisabetta, Queen of Spain, daughter of Katharina de Medici and the King of France.

Enough time has elapsed to now pause and take stock of the IRL’s accomplishments to date, which we did through formal commemorative events held in Barcelona and Palma. With the perspective of time we are also now able to observe the exponential effect of the efforts made by the many individuals and teams working for and with the Institut. In this regard I would say that this tenth anniversary year has been an exceptional one for the Institut Ramon Llull, offering very satisfying results. Within a context where reducing costs was an utmost priority— and where we focused more on structural cutbacks than on limiting activities—our aims of amplifying exposure abroad of the Catalan

    TOSCA Composer: Giacomo Puccini Act I — Rome, June 1800;The Church of Sant’Andrea della Valle. Napoleon Bonaparte is advancing with his army. Bonaparte is the political enemy of Scarpia and the hero of Cavaradossi and Angelotti. Angelotti, an escaped political prisoner, takes refuge in a side chapel of the church of Sant’Andrea della Valle in Rome. An elderly sacristan comes to tidy up, followed by Cavaradossi, a painter, who is at work on a portrait of the Madonna. Cavaradossi compares his Madonna’s blonde-haired, blue-eyed charm with the dark beauty of his lover, the famous singer Floria Tosca (“Recondita armonia”). Angelotti emerges from hiding to find Cavaradossi, his political ally,who promises to help his friend escape from Rome. Angelotti hides again at the sound of Tosca’s voice from outside. Tosca jealously demands to know why the door was locked. Cavaradossi reassures her, and they join in a passionate duet (“Non la sospiri”). Once Tosca has gone, Angelotti reappears and he and Cavaradossi plan his flight. A cannon shot from the Castel Sant’Angelo announces the discovery of Angelotti’s escape. They exit. The sacristan enters followed by clerics and choir boys, all excited by rumors of Bonaparte’s defeat (“Tutta qui la cantoria”). Baron Scarpia, the chief of police, arrives with his henchman Spoletta in search of the escaped prisoner. Tosca returns, and Scarpia plays upon Tosca’s jealousy in hopes of discovering Angelotti’s whereabouts (“Tosca divina”). When she leaves to seek her lover, Scarpia has her followed. As the crowd intones the “Te Deum,” Scarpia vows to bring Cavaradossi to the gallows and Tosca into his arms (“Va, Tosca! Nel tuo cuor s’annida Scarpia”).

    ROCHESTER BACH FESTIVAL presents ST. JOHN PASSION Celebrating the lives of Johann Sebastian Bach and Theodore Hollenbach A gift from the Rochester Bach Festival to the Rochester community in honor and memory of five decades of performances offered by Rochester-area musicians SUNDAY | APRIL 13, 2014 | 7:00 P.M. Reformation Lutheran Church 111 N. Chestnut Street, Rochester, New York DEAR FRIENDS OF BACH, FOREWORD A great town deserves great music, and what greater music than that of Johann Sebastian Bach, to enrich our lives and celebrate our artistic heritage. Theodore Hollenbach founded the Rochester Bach Festival in 1956 and served as its music director for over thirty years. Since that time, the Rochester Bach Festival continued with other conductors to carry on the mission to share the beauty of Bach's music and his contemporaries to audiences locally and in other cities. It is, therefore, my privilege to welcome you to the Rochester Bach Festival's presentation of the Bach's St. John Passion. I am especially pleased to welcome the wonderful talent of David Chin as our Music Director for this performance as well as a brilliant ensemble of vocalists, soloists, and instrumentalists. I would like to thank you for your past and present support of the Rochester Bach Festival.

Coincido con lo dicho por Noé, si bien deseo apuntar la omisión del nombre de un personaje, cuya presencia al frente de ese muy memorable negocio lo llevó al primer plano en el comercio de discos en nuestro medio. Se trata del señor Walter Gruen, persona que siempre se distinguió por su amabilidad con la cual atendía a la clientela, así como por los sabios consejos que estaba dispuesto a dar a quienes frecuentábamos su establecimiento. En mi caso, a partir del año 1953, cuando contaba con escasos calidad con la que cantan los artistas. Es de gente de poca cultura 16 años, recuerdo haberme asomado por primera vez al enorme y poca clase criticar otras cosas que no sea la calidad de la voz y aparador de cristal en el cual aparecían las carátulas conteniendo musicalidad de acuerdo a la edad del cantante.
