  • FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: November 3, 2016 the GRAMMY-Winning Boston Early Music Festival Chamber Opera Series Presents VERSAILLES
    Boston Early Music Festival 43 Thorndike Street, Suite 302 Cambridge, MA 02141-1764 INTERNATIONAL BAROQUE OPERA • CELEBRATED CONCERTS • WORLD-FAMOUS EXHIBITION 617-661-1812 | www.BEMF.org FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: November 3, 2016 The GRAMMY-Winning Boston Early Music Festival Chamber Opera Series presents VERSAILLES: Portrait of a Royal Domain on Thanksgiving weekend – November 26 & 27 in Boston and November 28 & 29 in New York City Cambridge, MA - The GRAMMY Award–winning Boston Early Music Festival Chamber Opera Series returns on Thanksgiving weekend for its ninth consecutive year with an all-new production inspired by the splendor and music of the French royal court. VERSAILLES: Portrait of a Royal Domain is a spectacle from the height of Louis XIV’s reign with two chamber operas—Charpentier’s Les Plaisirs de Versailles and Lalande’s Les Fontaines de Versailles—exalting the majesty of the palace and its gardens, alongside divertissements from Lully’s Atys. Produced in partnership with the Centre de Musique Baroque de Versailles, the production will receive four performances: Saturday, November 26 and Sunday, November 27 in Boston, and Monday November 28 and Tuesday, November 29 in New York City. “The Boston Early Music Festival has enjoyed a rich experience with the French operas of the 17th century, and especially the wonderful music of Charpentier,” observes Stage Director Gilbert Blin. “His unique and rather funny Les Plaisirs de Versailles inspired us to create a production of works connected to the famous palace of Louis XIV. Together, the titles answer each other, creating a sumptuous image of the Versailles castle and gardens." The elegance and drama of these three works is brought to life by the all-star BEMF Vocal and Chamber Ensembles in a magnificent production featuring gorgeous costumes and sumptuous period staging.

  • L'opérette Est-Elle Amenée À Disparaître ? Christiane Dupuy
    L'opérette est-elle amenée à disparaître ? Christiane Dupuy-Stutzmann Un grand historien de la danse à dit : « la France a ceci de particulier, qu’elle possède une terre féconde, une terre qui crée beaucoup de choses dans tous les domaines, mais qui contrairement aux autres, oublie son passé ». Ce triste constat est également valable pour ce spectacle total qu’est l’opérette, dont l’influence universelle, née sur les bords de la Seine, a donné lieu à un répertoire immense. Le metteur en scène argentin Jérôme Savary décédé en 2013, disait à ce propos, « la France est un pays bizarre qui condamne son opérette en ne la faisant plus représenter alors que lorsqu’on me demande de mettre en scène au Théâtre du Châtelet ou au Théâtre des Champs-Elysées « La Vie Parisienne » ou « La Périchole», la billetterie est littéralement prise d’assaut par le public parisien dès le 1er jour d’ouverture de la location ! » Comme on peut le constater, le goût du public n’est nullement en cause ! Les amateurs d’opérette, certes plus nombreux parmi les séniors, réclament inlassablement le retour d’une programmation même restreinte ! L’argument de ses détracteurs consiste à faire passer l’opérette pour un genre dépassé qui ne serait plus du goût des jeunes générations alors qu’en réalité, c’est plutôt par ignorance de ce répertoire et parce qu’on ne le programme plus que les jeunes ne s’y intéressent plus ! Il est avéré que l’opérette n’est pratiquement plus programmée dans les saisons lyriques de nos théâtres français.

  • Gounod's Letters
    GOUNOD'S LETTERS Downloaded from By JULEEN TIERSOT UKE the majority of modern musicians, who have received a general education superior to that of their predecessors, L Gounod did not confine himself to composing music; he http://mq.oxfordjournals.org/ also made numerous literary excursions, several of which found their way into print during his lifetime. Before the Academie he read various papers of special interest: "On the Artist in Modern Society," "Nature and Art," etc. He devoted a lengthy article to "Mozart's Don Giovanni" seizing the opportunity to give free rein to his admiration for the master who was his ex- emplar throughout his career. Besides this, he wrote essays on topics of current interest—for example, one on the works of his at University of Iowa Libraries/Serials Acquisitions on June 27, 2015 colleague and worthy continuator, Camille Saint-Sa&is;—and prefaces for works of other authors (a volume of letters by Berlioz, for instance), or for works of his own (Ridemption, etc.). Finally, he left us his Memoires, which were published immediately after his decease; not to speak of a certain compilation of divers articles which, under the somewhat inexact title of "Autobiography," appeared at London at an epoch which is not the most attractive one of his life. Naturally, he revealed himself most frankly in his letters, of which he despatched a flood in every direction. Up to the present time several series of them have been published; the volume begin- ning with his "Memoires d'un Artiste" already contained quite a number. Others are scattered through various biographies; there are many more still imprinted.

    ne of the many delights of being Artistic Director of America’s oldest continuously fact that he was writing for a paying audience, but also the press and their daily music criticism Operforming arts organisation, the Handel and Haydn Society (H+H), is that I am given – something which didn’t happen on the continent. London loved him and his Symphony the opportunity to present most of our concert season at Boston’s glorious Symphony Hall. No. 99 was not to disappoint. One critic hailed it as “a composition of the most exquisite kind, Built in 1900, it is principally the home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, but it has been rich, fanciful, bold and impressive”. The woodwind writing in the second movement Adagio is our primary performance home since 1900 as well, and it is considered by many, with some simply exemplary and demonstrates his mastery of symphonic art. Haydn was out to enlighten justification I would add, to be one of the finest concert halls in the world. It is that classic and delight and its Finale certainly achieves the latter. He litters the movement with numerous ‘shoebox style’ reminiscent of the Musikverein in Vienna; the acoustics are quite superb and, jokes of instrumentation and the overall effect is quite simply breathtaking. despite its size – c.2500 capacity – perfect for playing on period instruments.

  • OA the Angel Speaks Release
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE January 23, 2019 Opera Atelier Marries Past with Present, Song with Dance, in Evocative One-Night- Only Performance of Royal Chapel Concert –The Angel Speaks – Lauded Company Redefines Traditional Concert Experience, Uniting Iconic Music by Purcell with New Canadian Commission for Period Instruments Toronto, ON – Opera Atelier is honoured to present The Angel Speaks, a groundbreaking one-hour concert that effortlessly blends masterpieces of the baroque repertoire with the Canadian premiere of Annunciation, a new commission by Toronto-based composer and violinist Edwin Huizinga for period instruments. This singular performance takes place in the Samuel Hall Currelly Gallery at the historic Royal Ontario Museum (ROM), February 21, 2019, at 8pm. Soprano Mireille Asselin and Baritone Jesse Blumberg will be joined by members of the Tafelmusik Baroque Orchestra under the direction of David Fallis, alongside Artists of Atelier Ballet. “When The Angel Speaks was first presented to a sold-out audience at the Royal Chapel in Versailles, it was greeted with eight sustained minutes of applause,” says Opera Atelier Founding Co-Artistic Director Marshall Pynkoski, who also stages the concert. “I like to think of the performance as a ‘theatrical intervention’ in which we insert contemporary choreography and specially-commissioned music into a program of 17th century music with baroque choreography. The two styles are meant to overlap with each other, reflect one another and merge into a unique creative endeavour. This innovative concert underlines Opera Atelier’s core belief that creations and techniques from the past can act as important catalysts for creating something vibrant and new for 21st century audiences.” Baroque, contemporary music and dance are united in The Angel Speaks.
