También allí se estrenó la La fanciulla del West (1910), encargada por el propio teatro, que haría su última función en 1961, justamente con Turandot, de la que conservamos una grabación. El actual edificio sólo sería inaugurado en 1966 (cuando también se demo- lió el antiguo teatro) en el monumental Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, encargándose para la ocasión una ópera al americano Samuel Barber, Antony and Cleopatra, cuya producción realizó Franco Zeffirelli, aunque en aquella oca- sión la colaboración fue mal recibida por la crítica.

  • Opera Hong Kong Announces Details of Puccini's Turandot
    Opera Hong Kong announces details of Puccini’s Turandot Lavish production rounds off the 15th anniversary programme of Hong Kong’s most established champions of Western opera (Hong Kong, 10 September 2018) - Opera Hong Kong (OHK) is delighted to announce Turandot as the final production of its 15th anniversary year. A co-production of Opera Hong Kong and New York City Opera, Puccini’s classic opera features an all-star cast and will run from 10 – 14 October 2018 in the Grand Theatre at Hong Kong Cultural Centre. Puccini’s Turandot, first premiered in 1926 and set in Imperial Peking, opens with notoriously bloody scene as the Prince of Persia befalls the same destiny as many previous suitors of the Princess Turandot, and is executed, having failed to answer correctly the Princess’s three riddles. It is as Princess Turandot appears to order the execution to take place that Calàf, Prince of Tartary, standing amidst the mob outside the palace, sees her and instantly falls in love. The opera traces his unlikely success in answering the Princess’s three riddles, challenging her to find his name by midnight when she still, despite his victory, refuses his hand. Finally, as her feelings towards her suitor begin to soften, she proclaims she has uncovered his name: love. Rather than modernise the audience’s expectations of Turandot, Director Michael Capasso seeks to contextualise our expectations of the opera. The direction and set design by John Farrell are opulent and luxuriant, unpacking what Puccini and his 19th century peers considered Imperial China to represent.

    Annual Report 2017–18 1 3 Introduction 5 Metropolitan Opera Board of Directors 7 Season Repertory and Events 13 Artist Roster 15 The Financial Results 48 Our Patrons 2 Introduction During the 2017–18 season, the Metropolitan Opera presented more than 200 exiting performances of some of the world’s greatest musical masterpieces, with financial results resulting in a very small deficit of less than 1% of expenses—the fourth year running in which the company’s finances were balanced or very nearly so. The season opened with the premiere of a new staging of Bellini’s Norma and also included four other new productions, as well as 19 revivals and a special series of concert presentations of Verdi’s Requiem. The Live in HD series of cinema transmissions brought opera to audiences around the world for the 12th year, with ten broadcasts reaching more than two million people. Combined earned revenue for the Met (box office and media) totaled $114.9 million. Total paid attendance for the season in the opera house was 75%. All five new productions in the 2017–18 season were the work of distinguished directors, three having had previous successes at the Met and one making an auspicious company debut. A veteran director with six prior Met productions to his credit, Sir David McVicar unveiled the season-opening new staging of Norma as well as a new production of Puccini’s Tosca, which premiered on New Year’s Eve. The second new staging of the season was also a North American premiere, with Tom Cairns making his Met debut directing Thomas Adès’s groundbreaking 2016 opera The Exterminating Angel.

    PORTADA Oksana Dyka “Cantaré hasta que me dure la voz” por Ingrid Haas sta soprano ucraniana es una de esas voces que no se encuentran con facilidad hoy en día en el mundo de la ópera. ESu timbre es de una soprano lírico-spinto, capaz de cantar roles como Abigaille en Nabucco, Gulnara en Il corsaro, Amelia en Un ballo in maschera, Amelia/María en Simon Boccanegra, el papel homónimo en Aida, Nedda en Pagliacci, Tatiana en Eugene Onegin, Lisa en Pique Dame, Leonora en Il trovatore, Elisabetta en Don Carlo o Marguerite en Mefistofele, para luego pasar a interpretar los papeles principales en Tosca, Madama Butterfly y Turandot, además de Giorgetta en Il tabarro o Paulina en The Gambler. En 2016 cantó con gran éxito Jenůfa de Janáček, y fue parte del elenco que estrenó Prince Igor en el Met de Nueva York, cantando el rol de Yaroslavna. Su voz es grande, metálica, con squillo y gran potencia que le permite ser escuchada, sin problemas, en óperas donde la orquestación es densa. Sus agudos y sobreagudos resuenan sin esfuerzo, especialmente en roles como Turandot. Su flexibilidad y técnica vocal le permiten abordar también roles líricos, como Aida, Leonora o las dos Amelias verdianas. Nacida en Zhytomyr, Ucrania, Dyka se graduó del Conservatorio “Para algunos cantantes, Mozart es la medicina para su voz: de Kiev en 2004 y comenzó a trabajar en la Ópera Nacional de para mí es Verdi” Ucrania, de 2003 a 2007.
