Listen to the Overture to William Tell and see if you recognize it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YIbYCOiETx0 Read the Legend of William Tell. This was Rossini’s inspiration for writing the opera! THE LEGEND OF WILLIAM TELL William Tell is a Swiss folk hero. As the legend goes, William Tell was known as a mighty man who was an expert with the crossbow. After refusing to pay homage to the Austrian emperor, Tell was arrested and the emperor deemed that William and his son Walter be executed. However, the emperor would let them go free if William was able to shoot an apple off the head of his son! Walter nervously stood against a tree and an apple was placed upon his head. William successfully shot the apple from 50 steps away in front of a crowd of onlookers! William Tell and his never ending fight for liberty helped start the rebellion against the emperor and other tyrants as well.

  • Verdian Musicodramatic Expression in Un Ballo in Maschera
    VERDIAN MUSICODRAMATIC EXPRESSION IN UN BALLO IN MASCHERA A RESEARCH PAPER SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE MASTERS OF MUSIC BY JERRY POLMAN DR. CRAIG PRIEBE – ADVISER BALL STATE UNIVERSITY MUNCIE, INDIANA JULY 2010 | 1 On September 19, 1857, Giuseppe Verdi wrote to the impresario at San Carlo that he was “in despair.” He was commissioned to write an opera for the 1858 carnival season but could not find what he deemed a suitable libretto. For many years he desired to compose an opera based on Shakespeare‟s King Lear but he deemed the singers in Naples to be inadequate for the task. Nevertheless, he writes in the same letter that he is now “…condensing a French drama, Gustave III di Svezia, libretto by Scribe, given at the [Paris Grand Opéra with music by Auber] about twenty years ago [1833]. It is grand and vast; it is beautiful; but this too has the conventional forms of all works for music, something which I have never liked and I now find unbearable. I repeat, I am in despair, because it is too late to find other subjects.”1 Despite finding it “unbearable” Verdi continued to work on Gustave, calling on the talents of Antonia Somma to write the libretto. However, Verdi did not foresee the intense scrutiny that would be leveled against it. Upon receiving word from Vincenzo Torelli (the impresario of the San Carlo Opera House), that nothing less than a new production would suffice to fulfill his contract, Verdi and Somma set to work immediately on Gustave.

  • Le Cheval De Bronze De Daniel Auber
    GALERÍA DE RAREZAS Le cheval de bronze de Daniel Auber por Ricardo Marcos oy exploraremos una sala encantadora, generosamente iluminada, con grandes mesas en donde podemos degustar algunos de los chocolates franceses más sofisticados y deliciosos, de esta galería de rarezas operísticas. El compositor en cuestión gozó de la gloria operística y fue el segundo director en la historia del Conservatorio de París. Su Hmusa es ligera e irresistible, si bien una de sus grandes creaciones es una obra dramática. Durante la década de 1820 París se convirtió en el centro del mundo musical gracias en gran medida a tres casas de ópera emblemáticas; La Opéra de Paris, la Opéra Comique y el Thêatre Italien. Daniel Auber, quien había estudiado con Luigi Cherubini, se convirtió en el gran señor de la ópera cómica y habría de ser modelo para compositores como Adolphe Adam, Francois Bazin y Victor Masse, entre otros. Dotado desde pequeño para la música, Auber había aprendido a tocar violín y el piano pero fue hasta 1811 en que perfeccionó sus estudios musicales y se dedicó de tiempo completo a la composición. Entre sus mejores obras dentro del campo de la ópera cómica se encuentran joyas como Fra Diavolo y Le domino noir; sin embargo, hay una obra más para completar un trío de obras maestras que, junto con las grandes óperas La muette de Portici, Haydée y Gustave III, conforman lo mejor de su producción. Estrenada el 23 de marzo de 1835, con un libreto de Eugène Scribe, el sempiterno libretista francés de la primera mitad del siglo XIX, El caballo de bronce es una obra deliciosa por la vitalidad de sus duetos, ensambles y la gracia de sus arias, muchas de ellas demandantes; con dos roles brillantes para soprano, uno para tenor, uno para barítono y uno para bajo.

  • I Puritani a Londra: Rassegna Stampa (Maggio - Ottobre 1835) Alice Bellini - Daniela Macchione*
    i, 2015 issn 2283-8716 I Puritani a Londra: rassegna stampa (maggio - ottobre 1835) Alice Bellini - Daniela Macchione* Si pubblica qui di seguito una raccolta di recensioni relative alla prima stagione dei Puritani1 di Vincenzo Bellini al King’s Theatre di Londra (21 maggio-15 agosto 1835). Le fonti utilizzate comprendono un’ampia varietà di periodici, senza tuttavia alcuna pretesa di completezza. I due omaggi alla memoria di Bellini aggiunti alla fine della rassegna, espressione di due differenti correnti critiche, sono stati scelti tra i vari articoli pubblicati a Londra alla notizia della morte del compositore; essi riassumono i primi sei anni di presenza belliniana sulle scene inglesi e illustrano la controversa recezione critica dell’opera italiana a Londra. I documenti sono presentati in ordine alfabetico per testata e cronologico per data di pubblicazione. L’ordine cronologico qui adottato ha il vantaggio di mettere in evidenza la particolarità delle somiglianze tra articoli pubblicati in diverse testate, dovute plausibilmente soprattutto all’autoimprestito, una pratica comune nella pubblicistica musicale londinese del tempo, così spiegata da Leanne Langley: Music journalists were obliged to be neither thorough nor objective; literary recycling and self-borrowing (often without acknowledgment) were common practices; most London music journalists, then as now, were freelancers working for more than one periodical, often anonymously and perhaps shading the tone and content of their writing to suit a given journal’s market profile;

In Queensland Symphony Orchestra we regularly perform this work with the ballet. It’s some of the most beautiful music in the ballet repertoire and this time we’re really excited to be centre stage and make the music the focal point. Prokofiev is a master artist and paints glorious musical pictures. It’s a lot of fun for the bass section – we really enjoy a good sword fight and will put on a show for you! I think you’ll certainly recognise the Montagues and Capulets movement. These concerts also showcase virtuoso harpist Marie-Pierre Langlamet, who I’ve had the pleasure of performing with in Berlin many times. She’s an inspiring musician and a really unique performer. I’m sure you’ll marvel at her incredible artistic ability performing Ginastera’s blistering Harp Concerto. It’s a huge honour for us to share the stage with a musical icon like her. It is always a pleasure to perform on the QPAC stage for our beloved Brisbane audience. We hope you enjoy the concert as much as we will and look forward to seeing you at many more concerts in the future! Phoebe Russell Section Principal Double Bass Queensland Symphony Orchestra PROGRAM CONTENTS Rossini William Tell Overture* IN THIS CONCERT Ginastera Concerto for Harp and Orchestra Prokofiev Romeo and Juliet Suite WELCOME 1 Conductor Diego Matheuz FRI 15 MAR 11AM Harp Marie-Pierre Langlamet Approx.

He was only twenty-four years old at the time. Based on Charles Perrault’s CENDRILLON of 1697, La Cenerentola follows a common girl who dreams of a happier life and a prince who seeks to marry the most beautiful girl he can find. Rossini’s plot diverges from the fairy-tale tradition and takes a more realistic approach, with an endearing and sensible central character. Director John Hoomes brings some of the magic spirit back by setting the farcical tale by the sea in his BEACH BLANKET BINGO -inspired staging. THIS SYNOPSIS HAS BEEN UPDATED TO REFLECT JOHN HOOMES’S BEACH-PARTY STAGING It’s morning in the broken-down surf shop owned by Don and tells him to search for the young woman wearing the Magnifico.

  • The Mountain Sylph: a Forgotten Exemplar of English Romantic Opera
    The Mountain Sylph: A Forgotten Exemplar of English Romantic Opera Rodney Stenning Edgecombe The Opera Quarterly, Volume 18, Number 1, Winter 2002, pp. 26-39 (Article) Published by Oxford University Press For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/25463 [ This content has been declared free to read by the pubisher during the COVID-19 pandemic. ] The Mountain Sylph: A Forgotten Exemplar of English Romantic Opera rodney stenning edgecombe hree years after his second cousin, Giacomo Meyerbeer, brought Robert le Tdiable to the stage in 1831 (at the same time launching the career of the bal- lerina Marie Taglioni through its spectral ballet), the English composer John Barnett mounted his opera The Mountain Sylph at the Lyceum Theatre in Lon- don. The libretto, by one T. J. Thackeray, was even more closely connected with Taglioni than Barnett was with Meyerbeer, because it versified the plot of La sylphide (1832), the scenario of which tenor Adolphe Nourrit, the first Robert, had devised especially for his balletic costar. Although in his New Grove article on Barnett, Nicholas Temperley remarks that Thackeray’s libretto derived “from German folklore,” this is only partly true.1 Nourrit had loosely based La sylphide on a story by Charles Nodier, Trilby, ou Le lutin d’Argail (a Franco-Celtic enter- prise, therefore), swapping the genders of the protagonists (a goblin and a fisherman’s wife in Nodier; a sprite and a farmer in the ballet). More impor- tant, Nourrit reconceived the supernatural figure in terms derived from the Swiss physician Paracelsus and drew on the latter’s secondary mythology of the sylph (which probably portmanteaus “nymph” with “sylvestris”) instead of the primary figures of fairies or nymphs.
