Note Intorno Alla Contesa Teatrale Tra Pietro Chiari E Carlo Goldoni, Con Il
Note intorno alla contesa teatrale tra Pietro Chiari e Carlo Goldoni, con il contributo di alcune epistole saggi di Placido Bordoni al canonico Lodovico Ricci Valentina Garavaglia «Promette il frontespizio della mia Opera, di far conoscere il Teatro ch’è, tra le cose umane, una di quelle che meno s’intendono, quanto più sono studiate. Ma posto che non ci fosse questa spezie d’impossibilità, che presunzione è la vostra, mi si può dire, di credere che basti quanto vi avvenne, a farlo conoscere?» Antonio Piazza1 Non pochi studi sono stati dedicati negli ultimi trent’anni alla contesa teatrale che vide nei due campi avversari Carlo Goldoni e Carlo Gozzi, sollevando dall’oblio in cui era rimasto celato per due secoli un episodio di notevole interesse per la storiografia letteraria e teatrale. Diversa attenzione è stata invece dedicata allo saggi scontro che oppose per diversi anni lo stesso Goldoni a Pietro Chiari. Con l’ausilio 25 di alcune lettere2 di Placido Bordoni3, indirizzate al canonico Lodovico Ricci4 e conservate presso la Biblioteca Morcelli-Repossi in Chiari (Brescia), solo in parte note, e con la guida degli studi fin qui apparsi, intendo portare un contributo allo studio del variegato periodo di storia teatrale che occupa i primi anni Sessanta del 1.

Sie ist allein, sie fühlt sich einsam in ihrem unermesslichen Imperium, wie eine verlassene Insel im Meer.

A large body of published research exists regarding the physiology of breathing, the acoustics of singing, and solutions for specific vocal faults. There is similarly a growing body of research into the system of voice classification and repertoire assignment. This paper shall reexamine this research in light of baritenor voices. After establishing the general parameters of healthy vocal technique through appoggio, the various tenor, baritone, and bass Fächer will be studied to establish norms of vocal criteria such as range, timbre, tessitura, and registration for each Fach. The study of these Fächer includes examinations of the historical singers for whom the repertoire was created and how those roles are cast by opera companies in modern times. The specific examination of baritenors follows the same format by examining current and -

Kenneth E. Querns Langley Doctor of Philosophy
Reconstructing the Tenor ‘Pharyngeal Voice’: a Historical and Practical Investigation Kenneth E. Querns Langley Submitted in partial fulfilment of Doctor of Philosophy in Music 31 October 2019 Page | ii Abstract One of the defining moments of operatic history occurred in April 1837 when upon returning to Paris from study in Italy, Gilbert Duprez (1806–1896) performed the first ‘do di petto’, or high c′′ ‘from the chest’, in Rossini’s Guillaume Tell. However, according to the great pedagogue Manuel Garcia (jr.) (1805–1906) tenors like Giovanni Battista Rubini (1794–1854) and Garcia’s own father, tenor Manuel Garcia (sr.) (1775–1832), had been singing the ‘do di petto’ for some time. A great deal of research has already been done to quantify this great ‘moment’, but I wanted to see if it is possible to define the vocal qualities of the tenor voices other than Duprez’, and to see if perhaps there is a general misunderstanding of their vocal qualities. That investigation led me to the ‘pharyngeal voice’ concept, what the Italians call falsettone. I then wondered if I could not only discover the techniques which allowed them to have such wide ranges, fioritura, pianissimi, superb legato, and what seemed like a ‘do di petto’, but also to reconstruct what amounts to a ‘lost technique’. To accomplish this, I bring my lifelong training as a bel canto tenor and eighteen years of experience as a classical singing teacher to bear in a partially autoethnographic study in which I analyse the most important vocal treatises from Pier Francesco Tosi’s (c. -
