  • Composers Mascagni and Leoncavallo Biography
    Cavalleria Rusticana Composer Biography: Pietro Mascagni Mascagni was an Italian composer born in Livorno on December 7, 1863. His father was a baker and dreamed of a career as a lawyer for his son, but following the good reception obtained by Mascagni’s first compositions was persuaded to allow him to study music at the Milan Conservatoire, where his teachers included Amilcare Ponchielli and Michele Saladino, and where he shared a furnished room with his fellow-student Giacomo Puccini. His first compositions won him financial support to study at the Milan Conservatory. He was of a rebellious nature and intolerant of discipline, and in 1885 he left the Conservatoire to join a modest operetta company as conductor. He became part of the Compagnia Maresca and, together with his future wife, Lina Carbognani, settled in Cerignola (Apulia) in 1886, where he formed a symphony orchestra. Here Mascagni composed at a single stroke, in only two months, the one-act opera Cavalleria rusticana, based on the short story by Verga, which was to win him the first prize in the Second Sonzogno Competition for new operas. The innovative strength of the opera and the resounding worldwide success which followed its first performance (1890, Teatro Costanzi, Rome) marked the beginning of an artistic life rich in achievements and satisfactions, both as composer and as conductor. He became increasingly prominent as a conductor and in 1892 conducted his opera I Rantzau around Europe. Further successes included Amica (1905) and Isabeau (1911), alongside such failures as Le maschere (1901). In 1915 he experimented with writing for cinema in Rapsodia satanicawith Nino Oxilia.

  • Karel Ančerl Mannheim School
    czech music quarterly 4 | 2 0 0 7 Jan Talich Festivals in the Czech Republic Karel Ančerl Mannheim School 2 0 7 Dear Readers, | 4 with this last issue for 2007, Czech Music Quarterly crowns its first year of existence in a new format and with a new graphic design. We think the magazine’s new look has been a success and we hope we are not alone in thinking so. In any case we welcome any feedback from readers. And of course not only on matters of design but on the content too – your comments, suggestions and criticisms are very important for us. I would like to draw your attention to the fact that for several months now full-text back numbers of all out issues from 2004 to 2006 have been accessible on our web pages, www.czech-music.net, and other issues will be added progressively (always a year after original publication). Please note that as far as older numbers are concerned, we shall always be happy to send you a copy of any article that interests you on request (you will find a list of contents of individual back numbers on our web archive). Our prime concern is that anyone anywhere who wants information about Czech music should have no difficulty getting it. Please don’t hesitate to contact us.

  • Operas Performed in New York City in 2013 (Compiled by Mark Schubin)
    Operas Performed in New York City in 2013 (compiled by Mark Schubin) What is not included in this list: There are three obvious categories: anything not performed in 2013, anything not within the confines of New York City, and anything not involving singing. Empire Opera was supposed to perform Montemezzi’s L'amore dei tre re in November; it was postponed to January, so it’s not on the list. Similarly, even though Bard, Caramoor, and Peak Performances provide bus service from midtown Manhattan to their operas, even though the New York City press treats the excellent but four-hours-away-by-car Glimmerglass Festival like a local company, and even though it’s faster to get from midtown Manhattan to some performances on Long Island or in New Jersey or Westchester than to, say, Queens College, those out-of-city productions are not included on the main list (just for reference, I put Bard, Caramoor, and Peak Performances in an appendix). And, although the Parterre Box New York Opera Calendar (which includes some non-opera events) listed A Rite, a music-theatrical dance piece performed at the BAM Opera House, I didn’t because no performer in it sang. I did not include anything that wasn’t a local in-person performance. The cinema transmissions from the Met, Covent Garden, La Scala, etc., are not included (nor is the movie Metallica: Through the Never, which Owen Gleiberman in Entertainment Weekly called a “grand 3-D opera”). I did not include anything that wasn’t open to the public, so the Met’s workshop of Scott Wheeler’s The Sorrows of Frederick is not on the list.

    OVERTURE OPERA GUIDES in association with We are delighted to have the opportunity to work with Overture Publishing on this series of opera guides and to build on the work English National Opera did over twenty years ago with the Calder Opera Guide Series. As well as reworking and updating existing titles, Overture and ENO have commissioned new titles for the series and all of the guides will be published to coincide with the repertory being staged by the company. We hope that these guides will prove an invaluable resource now and for years to come, and that by delving deeper into the history of an opera, the libretto and the nuances of the score, readers’ understanding and appreciation of the opera and the art form in general will be enhanced. Daniel Kramer Artistic Director, ENO The publisher John Calder began the Opera Guides series under the editorship of the late Nicholas John in associa- tion with English National Opera in 1980. It ran until 1994 and eventually included forty-eight titles, covering fifty-eight operas. The books in the series were intended to be companions to the works that make up the core of the operatic repertory. They contained articles, illustrations, musical examples and a complete libretto and singing translation of each opera in the series, as well as bibliographies and discographies. The aim of the present relaunched series is to make available again the guides already published in a redesigned format with new illustrations, revised and newly commissioned articles, up- dated reference sections and a literal translation of the libretto that will enable the reader to get closer to the meaning of the original.

  • Music in the Classical Period (A
    Teaching notes Western Music History Music in the Classical Period (a. 1730 - a. 1800) © 2013 by Helen Wong Kin Hoi Alberti Bass - breaking each of the underlying chords into a simple pattern of short notes that is repeated to produce a discreet chordal background. - Broken-chord accompaniment common in the second half of the eighteenth century and named after Domenico Alberti, who used the figuration frequently. - A type of accompaniment pattern (first extensively used by the Italian composer, Domenico Alberti) often found in piano music by Classical composers such as Haydn and Mozart. It consists of chords broken up into patterns played by the left hand, keeping the music moving while outlining harmonies to support a melody in the right hand. Opera in the early Classical Period: Opera buffa: comic opera Opera Seria: serious opera Gluck's reform background - to serve the poetry and advance the plot, not the outworn conventions of the da capo arias or the singers to show off their skill in ornamental variation. Instrumental Music: - Keyboard sonata - Domenico Scarlatti (1685-1757) - C. P. E. Bach (1714-1788) Scarlatti: Sonata in D major, K. 119 Sonata form Since the nineteenth century, the form has been viewed as a three-part structure, but eighteenth century writers understood it as a binary form (see Figure 14.10). Exposition (usually repeated) - First theme or group of themes in the tonic (P) - Transitional or bridge passage (T) 1 - Second, often more lyrical, theme or group (S) in the dominant or relative major - Closing theme or cadential reinforcement (K) - An introduction often precedes the exposition.
