ARSC Journal
A Discography of the Choral Symphony by J. F. Weber In previous issues of this Journal (XV:2-3; XVI:l-2), an effort was made to compile parts of a composer discography in depth rather than breadth. This one started in a similar vein with the realization that SO CDs of the Beethoven Ninth Symphony had been released (the total is now over 701). This should have been no surprise, for writers have stated that the playing time of the CD was designed to accommodate this work. After eighteen months' effort, a reasonably complete discography of the work has emerged. The wonder is that it took so long to collect a body of information (especially the full names of the vocalists) that had already been published in various places at various times. The Japanese discographers had made a good start, and some of their data would have been difficult to find otherwise, but quite a few corrections and additions have been made and some recording dates have been obtained that seem to have remained 1.Dlpublished so far. The first point to notice is that six versions of the Ninth didn't appear on the expected single CD. Bl:lhm (118) and Solti (96) exceeded the 75 minutes generally assumed (until recently) to be the maximum CD playing time, but Walter (37), Kegel (126), Mehta (127), and Thomas (130) were not so burdened and have been reissued on single CDs since the first CD release. On the other hand, the rather short Leibowitz (76), Toscanini (11), and Busch (25) versions have recently been issued with fillers. -

There's a Real Buzz and Sense of Purpose About What This Company Is Doing
15 FEBRUARY 7.15PM & 17 FEBRUARY 2PM “There’s a real buzz and sense of purpose about what this company is doing” ~ The Guardian www.niopera.com Grand Opera House, Belfast Welcome to The Grand Opera House for this new production of The Flying Dutchman. This is, by some way, NI Opera’s biggest production to date. Our very first opera (Menotti’s The Medium, coincidentally staged two years ago this month) utilised just five singers and a chamber band, and to go from this to a grand opera demanding 50 singers and a full symphony orchestra in such a short space of time indicates impressive progress. Similarly, our performances of Noye’s Fludde at the Beijing Music Festival in October, and our recent Irish Times Theatre Award nominations for The Turn of the Screw, demonstrate that our focus on bringing high quality, innovative opera to the widest possible audience continues to bear fruit. It feels appropriate for us to be staging our first Wagner opera in the bicentenary of the composer’s birth, but this production marks more than just a historical anniversary. Unsurprisingly, given the cost and complexities involved in performing Wagner, this will be the first fully staged Dutchman to be seen in Northern Ireland for generations. More unexpectedly, perhaps, this is the first ever new production of a Wagner opera by a Northern Irish company. Northern Ireland features heavily in this production. The opera begins and ends with ships and the sea, and it does not take too much imagination to link this back to Belfast’s industrial heritage and the recent Titanic commemorations. -

Depuis 2007 elle se produit internationalement comme mezzo-soprano dramatique, - « cas unique d’une héroïne wagnérienne avec intelligence et cœur » (Kölner Stadtanzeiger). Renate Behle a compté pendant plus de 15 ans parmi les plus renommées des chanteuses dramatiques. Avec « sa voix chaude et généreuse », dont la sonorité « se grave dans la mémoire » (Financial Times), elle a su enthousiasmer le public et la presse sur les plus grandes scènes d’opéra du monde. Au cours de sa carrière longue de plus de quatre décennies, Renate Behle a su prouver qu’elle possédait une voix d’une exceptionnelle polyvalence. Elle commence sa carrière comme mezzo-soprano lyrique. Après ses études à Graz et à Rome, Renate Behle participe pendant deux ans aux productions de l’Opéra de Karlsruhe.

Cinq ans plus tard, elle est recrutée comme mezzo-soprano lyrique au Théâtre musical du Revier Gelsenkirchen. En 1982, elle est engagée à l’Opéra d’Etat de Basse-Saxe à Hanovre où, malgré une reconnaissance internationale croissante, elle reste membre de la troupe pendant 15 ans.
