Acclaiming Orchestra Orchestra del Teatro the mastery of tenorissimo Juan Diego Flórez and the breathtaking Comunale di Bologna young soprano Olga Peretyatko in the lead roles, the press hailed Chorus Coro del Teatro Comunale di Bologna the premiere of Rossini’s Matilde di Shabran at the Rossini Opera Chorus Master Lorenzo Fratini Festival in Pesaro as the “high point of the festival” (the Berlin daily Der Tagesspiegel). Matilde di Shabran Olga Peretyatko Matilde di Shabran was given its world premiere performance in Edoardo Anna Goryachova Rome in 1821. A genuine international hit, it was staged in Vienna, Raimondo Lopez Marco Filippo Romano London, Paris, New York and throughout Italy all before 1830. The Corradino Juan Diego Flórez music of Rossini’s last “opera semiseria” – thus half serious and half Ginardo Simon Orfila comic – contains a succession of beguiling ensemble pieces. The plot Aliprando Nicola Alaimo revolves around the knight Corradino, who has withdrawn to his castle Isidoro Paolo Bordogna and professes to hate his fellow humans. When he meets Matilde di Contessa d’Arco Chiara Chialli Shabran, however, he experiences unknown emotions that have Egoldo Giorgio Misseri nothing to do with hatred...

Program notes for Camerata Milwaukee for Dec 2, 2018 Our Advent-tide program this year includes several solo vocal cantatas, works by two Ursuline nuns, three Italian Christmas concertos, and various other baroque delights. Giuseppe Torelli is primarily known as a member of the Bolognese school of violinists and composers. He helped shape the genres of concerto and sonata into their mature forms under a variety of names, such as tonight’s “sinfonias”, which were published in 1692 as part of his Opus 5. Rather than the larger works which later came to be associated with this term, these two pieces are examples of trio sonatas scored for two violinists and basso continuo (a harpsichordist or organist who fills in the chordal structure plus a cellist reinforcing the bass line). The Italian nun Isabella Leonarda entered the Collegio di Sant'Orsola—an Ursuline convent in her hometown of Novara in northern Italy near Milan— at the age of sixteen.

  • Queen of Heaven Music of Isabella Leonarda in Honor of the Virgin Mary
    Classical Music Agency 33 W 60TH Street, Lib1-8 New York, NY 10023 Tel: +1-917-572-6859 DCA License #: 0897404 AGAVE BAROQUE REGINALD MOBLEY, countertenor Queen of Heaven Music of Isabella Leonarda in Honor of the Virgin Mary Although the Roman Catholic establishment did not accept the Divine Feminine as orthodoxy, within the walls of many convents in 17th century Italy, nuns ascribed to the Blessed Virgin Mary her own trinity, venerating her as Maiden, Mother, and Queen of Heaven. They also cultivated an unorthodox tradition of making music at a time when women typically had neither the education nor the freedom to write and perform music at a professional level. Anna Isabella Leonarda was born to a wealthy family who opted to send their daughter to spend her life as a nun rather than having to pay a hefty marriage dowry. Leonarda entered the Collegio di Sant’Orsola at sixteen, where she received a solid musical education and lived a fairly privileged life within her order, rising to be- come Mother Superior in her sixties, and dying a local celebrity at the age of 84. Leonarda published 20 volumes of music over a sixty year career––a worthy accomplishment for any 17th century com- poser, let alone a woman in an age of repression. Leonarda was an accomplished poet, and most probably wrote the texts to the three motets on this album. Her poetry is intimate, deeply personal, and speaks to the central place the Virgin Mary held in the worship life of the Ursuline sisters. Leonarda’s collection of instrumental music, published in 1693, includes the earliest known sonata for solo violin and basso continuo written by a female composer.

Finding Their Voice: Women Musicians of Baroque Italy Faith Poynor emale musicians began to achieve greater freedom and indepen- dence from men during the Baroque period, and their music and Fcreative talent consequently began to flourish. Due to the rise in popularity of female vocal ensembles that resulted after the establishment of the con- certo delle donne in 1580, women composers in early modern Italy gained greater access to musical training previously only available to men or nuns. As seen by the works of composers and singers such as Francesca Caccini and Barbara Strozzi, this led to an unprecedented increase in women’s mu- sical productivity, particularly in vocal music. The rise of female vocal ensembles in the early Baroque period was a pivotal moment in women’s music history, as women finally achieved wide- spread recognition for their talents as musicians.

  • NEWSLETTER of the American Handel Society
    NEWSLETTER of The American Handel Society Volume XVIII, Number 1 April 2003 A PILGRIMAGE TO IOWA As I sat in the United Airways terminal of O’Hare International Airport, waiting for the recently bankrupt carrier to locate and then install an electric starter for the no. 2 engine, my mind kept returning to David Lodge’s description of the modern academic conference. In Small World (required airport reading for any twenty-first century academic), Lodge writes: “The modern conference resembles the pilgrimage of medieval Christendom in that it allows the participants to indulge themselves in all the pleasures and diversions of travel while appearing to be austerely bent on self-improvement.” He continues by listing the “penitential exercises” which normally accompany the enterprise, though, oddly enough, he omits airport delays. To be sure, the companionship in the terminal (which included nearly a dozen conferees) was anything but penitential, still, I could not help wondering if the delay was prophecy or merely a glitch. The Maryland Handel Festival was a tough act to follow and I, and perhaps others, were apprehensive about whether Handel in Iowa would live up to the high standards set by its august predecessor. In one way the comparison is inappropriate. By the time I started attending the Maryland conference (in the early ‘90’s), it was a first-rate operation, a Cadillac among festivals. Comparing a one-year event with a two-decade institution is unfair, though I am sure in the minds of many it was inevitable. Fortunately, I feel that the experience in Iowa compared very favorably with what many of us had grown accustomed Frontispiece from William Coxe, Anecdotes fo George Frederick Handel and John Christopher Smith to in Maryland.
