Il gran pontefice Zaccaria rincuora la sua gente. In mano ebrea è tenuta come ostaggio la figlia di Nabucco, Fenena, la cui custodia Zaccaria affida a Ismaele, nipote del re di Gerusalemme. Questi, tuttavia, promette alla giovane di restituirle la libertà, perché un giorno a Babilonia egli stesso, prigioniero, era stato liberato da Fe- nena. I due innamorati stanno organizzando la fuga, quando giunge nel tempio Abigaille, supposta figlia di Nabucco, a comando di una schiera di Babilonesi. Anch’essa è innamorata di Ismaele e minaccia Fenena di riferire al padre che ella ha tentato di fuggire con uno stra- niero; infine si dichiara disposta a tacere a patto che Ismaele rinunci alla giovane. -
Mabellini, Political Survival and Il Conte Di Lavagna Alexander Weatherson
Mabellini, political survival and Il conte di Lavagna Alexander Weatherson [...when the order form had been passed over the counter of the famous Library requesting the vocal score of Il conte di Lavagna, there was a long pause - then the lady came back and said there did not seem to be an opera by Bellini with this name…] Once a musical personality of considerable renown, if mostly as a conductor, Teodulo Mabellini should nowadays perhaps be described as Mercadante’s legacy to Padania. Born in Pistoia on 2 April 1817, he studied locally before removing to Florence where soon he was hailed as a prodigy. To such an extent indeed that after the plaudits and astonishment of his 1836 début with an opera called Matilde e Toledo set to a terrible mouthful of a libretto by a certain don Giuseppe Tigri (not “Matilde a Toledo” or “Matilde di Toledo” as we are often told - Toledo is the name of Matilde’s unfortunate husband) sung by students and dilettanti at the Teatro Alfieri, he was sent off to improve himself (per perfezionarsi) with Saverio Mercadante in Novara where the latter held the post of Maestro di Cappella. This impressive endorsement of his potential apparently on the initiative of a group of concittadini together with the famous impresario Alessandro Lanari, but at the expense of none-other than the Grand-Duke of Tuscany, Leopoldo II. An amiable, compliant, competent youth he thus achieved a fluency that was wholly meridional matched by an instrumental knowhow that was frankly of the north. On reflection, it may only be by mischance that he failed to generate the same kind of serious acclaim that sustained far-more famous composers with whose careers he overlapped. -

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. -

Heft 3/56. Jahrgang Unsere Kulturförderung: Gut Für Die Kultur
2009 Heft 3/56. Jahrgang Unsere Kulturförderung: Gut für die Kultur. Gut für die Region. Musik ist ein wichtiges Bindeglied der Gesellschaft. Sie stärkt den Zusammenhalt und schafft Vorbilder. Deshalb unterstützen wir die Musik und sorgen für die notwendigen Rahmenbedingungen: regional und national, in der Nachwuchsförderung. Die Unterstützung des Wettbewerbs „Jugend musiziert“ und des „Landesjugendorchesters Baden-Württemberg“ ist ein Teil dieses Engagements. www.sparkasse-bodensee.de. Nachrichten Liebe Leserinnen und Leser, Editorial ald ist es soweit. Am 15. November wird in der Konstan- bzer Kirche St. Gebhard die Messa per Rossini erklingen und der Sinfonische Chor freut sich schon sehr darauf, wie- wohl noch eine Menge Arbeit vor ihm liegt. Es ist ein beson- deres und großartiges Werk. Um Missverständnissen vor- zubeugen: die Messa per Rossini ist nicht von, sondern für Gioacchino Rossini geschrieben. Ihm zu Ehren machten sich 13 zeitgenössische italienische Komponisten, darunter Giuseppe Verdi, nach dessen Tod ans Werk. Gisela Auchter wird in dieser Ausgabe auf die Entstehungs- wehen dieses Werks eingehen („Dem Vergessen entrissen“) und auch einen kurzen biographischen Abriss der neben Verdi zwölf für uns doch recht unbekannten Komponisten beisteuern („Messa per Rossini – Die Komponisten“). Die Messa per Rossini bildet das Festkonzert zum 175-jähri- gen Jubiläum unseres Chores. Ich habe diese Gelegenheit aufgegriffen, in dieser Ausgabe eine kurze Zusammenfas- sung unserer Chorgeschichte zu schreiben. Es war sehr in- teressant, in alten Unterlagen zu stöbern und immer wieder festzustellen, welche Bedeutung doch dieser Chor für Konstanz hat und auf welch reichhaltige Geschichte zurück- geblickt werden kann. An dieser Stelle möchte ich auch nochmals unserem Ehrenmitglied Anton Kleiner für die großzügige Überlassung alter Chordokumente danken. -
