LA CULTURA ITALIANA BALDASSARE GALUPPI (1706–1785) Thousands of English-speaking students are only familiar with this composer through a poem by Robert Browning entitled “A Toccata of Galuppi’s.” Few of these students had an inkling of who he was or had ever heard a note of his music. This is in keeping with the poem in which the toccata stands as a symbol of a vanished world. Although he was famous throughout his life and died a very rich man, soon after his death he was almost entirely forgotten until Browning resurrected his name (and memory) in his 1855 poem. He belonged to a generation of composers that included Christoph Willibald Gluck, Domenico Scarlatti, and CPE Bach, whose works were emblematic of the prevailing galant style that developed in Europe throughout the 18th century. In his early career he made a modest success in opera seria (serious opera), but from the 1740s, together with the playwright and librettist Carlo Goldoni, he became famous throughout Europe for his opera buffa (comic opera) in the new dramma giocoso (playful drama) style. To the suc- ceeding generation of composers he became known as “the father of comic opera,” although some of his mature opera seria were also widely popular. BALDASSARE GALUPPI was born on the island of Burano in the Venetian Lagoon on October 18, 1706, and from as early as age 22 was known as “Il Buranello,” a nickname which even appears in the signature on his music manuscripts, “Baldassare Galuppi, detto ‘Buranello’ (Baldassare Galuppi, called ‘Buranello’).” His father was a bar- ber, who also played the violin in theater orchestras, and is believed to have been his son’s first music teacher. -

Opera Olimpiade
OPERA OLIMPIADE Pietro Metastasio’s L’Olimpiade, presented in concert with music penned by sixteen of the Olympian composers of the 18th century VENICE BAROQUE ORCHESTRA Andrea Marcon, conductor Romina Basso Megacle Franziska Gottwald Licida Karina Gauvin Argene Ruth Rosique Aristea Carlo Allemano Clistene Nicholas Spanos Aminta Semi-staged by Nicolas Musin SUMMARY Although the Olympic games are indelibly linked with Greece, Italy was progenitor of the Olympic operas, spawning a musical legacy that continues to resound in opera houses and concert halls today. Soon after 1733, when the great Roman poet Pietro Metastasio witnessed the premiere of his libretto L’Olimpiade in Vienna, a procession of more than 50 composers began to set to music this tale of friendship, loyalty and passion. In the course of the 18th century, theaters across Europe commissioned operas from the Olympian composers of the day, and performances were acclaimed in the royal courts and public opera houses from Rome to Moscow, from Prague to London. Pieto Metastasio In counterpoint to the 2012 Olympic games, Opera Olimpiade has been created to explore and celebrate the diversity of musical expression inspired by this story of the ancient games. Research in Europe and the United States yielded L’Olimpiade manuscripts by many composers, providing the opportunity to extract the finest arias and present Metastasio’s drama through an array of great musical minds of the century. Andrea Marcon will conduct the Venice Baroque Orchestra and a cast of six virtuosi singers—dare we say of Olympic quality—in concert performances of the complete libretto, a succession of 25 spectacular arias and choruses set to music by 16 Title page of David Perez’s L’Olimpiade, premiered in Lisbon in 1753 composers: Caldara, Vivaldi, Pergolesi, Leo, Galuppi, Perez, Hasse, Traetta, Jommelli, Piccinni, Gassmann, Mysliveek, Sarti, Cherubini, Cimarosa, and Paisiello. -

Concerto 31.03.2019
Si ringrazia don Ardiccio Dagani autore del volume “La musica di velluto” per il recupero del materiale sinfonico di Ferdinando Bertoni La musica di velluto eseguito in concerto Viaggio nel XVIII secolo tra la tradizione musicale veneziana ed il grande classicismo viennese L’evento è stato reso possibile grazie al sostegno di Fabrizio Alessandrini clarinetto *** *** *** Orchestra Giovanile di Brescia seguici su Marco Fabbri direttore contatti domenica 31 marzo 2019, ore 17.30 [email protected] Brescia - Chiesa di San Cristo Ferdinando Bertoni nacque a Salò il 15 agosto 1725. Dopo aver ricevuto i primi insegnamenti musicali nella sua città natale, nel 1740 si trasferì a Bologna, dove studiò per i successivi cinque anni sotto la guida del celebre Giovanni Battista Martini. Nel 1745 passò a Venezia, dove gli venne affidato l’incarico di organista della Chiesa di San Moisè e dove al contempo si Programma manteneva impartendo anche lezioni di clavicembalo e canto presso alcune tra le più importanti famiglie della nobiltà veneziana. Ben presto iniziò a farsi un nome come compositore d’opere e di oratori sacri. Nel 1752, ottenne la nomina di primo organista della Basilica di San Marco e, nel 1755, divenne anche maestro del coro ed insegnante di musica all’Ospedale dei Mendicanti. Fu qui che Bertoni compose Ferdinando Bertoni la maggior parte dei suoi lavori sacri, tra cui molti oratori, mottetti, antifone ed un celebre Miserere che incontrarono già all’epoca particolare ammirazione ed (1725-1813) apprezzamento ed ancor oggi vengono eseguiti. Negli anni successivi, compì numerosi viaggi in altre città italiane e compose svariate opere liriche. -
Figura 1. Teatri Di Venezia, Venezia Venezia 1868: L’Anno Di Ca’ Foscari a Cura Di Nico Stringa E Stefania Portinari
Figura 1. Teatri di Venezia, Venezia Venezia 1868: l’anno di Ca’ Foscari a cura di Nico Stringa e Stefania Portinari I teatri a Venezia nel 1868 Maria Ida Biggi (Università Ca’ Foscari Venezia, Italia) Abstract In 1868 the theatrical context in Venice was affected by local abut also statal economic situation, due by the development of the new Italian State, formed after the Peace of Vienna that, signed on 23 October 1866, marked the end of the Third War of Independ- ence and the annexation of Venice to the unitary state. Venice therefore became less important for theatrical production, and the city was no longer among the capitals of theatre and music, as it could have been considered until in the first half of 19th century. A new trend throughout Europe was moreover the ‘grand opera’, while in Venice the dominant show was still the traditional musical opera, in addition to opera and ‘opera buffa’, created by great Italian composers. The theatres active in 1868 in the city are La Fenice, Teatro San Benedetto then called Rossini, Teatro Apollo, Teatro Malibran and Teatro San Samuele. Through the reviews of the Gazzetta di Venezia and documents such as sketches of the scene made by famous set designers, that interesting moment is reconstructed. Keywords Theatres. Venice. 1868.

Carlo Goldoni As Musical Reformer
CARLO GOLDONI AS MUSICAL REFORMER IN SEARCH OF REALISM IN THE DRAMMA GIOCOSO La vraisemblance doit toujours être la principale règle, et sans laquelle toutes les autres deviennent déréglées. -l’Abbé d’Aubignac, La Pratique du Théâtre by Pervinca Rista Dissertation submitted to the Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Baltimore, Maryland March 18, 2015 © Pervinca Rista All Rights Reserved Abstract Venetian playwright Carlo Goldoni (1707-1793), who is best remembered in literary history for his realist ‘reform’ of comic theatre, was also a prolific librettist. In particular, his texts for music written from 1748 onwards remain understudied but warrant significant reappraisal, for Goldoni was one of the first to give shape to the dramma giocoso, an innovative and realistic new genre of opera that went on to have a lasting legacy all the way to W. A. Mozart and Lorenzo da Ponte. Through an interdisciplinary, historical approach and intertextual analysis, the present study reevaluates Goldoni’s drammi giocosi, largely overlooked by scholarship, to uncover the lasting innovations in form and content introduced by the Venetian playwright. Analysis of these texts also reveals clear affinity between Goldoni's contributions to the dramma giocoso and his reform of prose theatre. Most importantly, unlike other types of comic opera, the dramma giocoso has the particularity of combining buffo with serio, a dynamic that, through Goldoni's mature output, continually evolves to bring new realism and social relevance to opera theatre. Goldoni’s influence on this type of musical representation has not been fully considered, but the realism in music that he achieves through the dramma giocoso must be acknowledged as a lasting contribution to modern literature, and to operatic history. -

Stagione Lirica E Balletto 2021-2022
STAGIONE LIRICA E BALLETTO 2021-2022 La Fenice proporrà in apertura di Stagione il Fidelio di Ludwig van Beethoven. L’opera verrà presentata in un nuovo allestimento del Teatro veneziano, con la regia di Joan Anton Rechi e sotto la direzione musicale di Myung-Whun Chung. Il cast prevede la partecipazione di Ian Koziara (Florestan), Tilmann Rönnebeck (Rocco) e Tamara Wilson (Leonore). Unica opera lirica composta da Beethoven, Fidelio si basa su un libretto di Joseph Sonnleithner e Georg Friedrich Treitschke tratto dalla Léonore di Jean-Nicolas Bouilly, un testo del 1798 del genere ‘à sauvetage’ allora molto in voga, già musicato da diversi compositori. Complessa e tormentata la genesi, tanto che se ne conoscono tre versioni: la prima fu composta nel 1804-5 in tre atti e andò in scena nel 1805 nella Vienna occupata dalle truppe francesi. La terza e definitiva versione, in due atti, risale invece al 1814, e debuttò al Kärntnertortheater. Fidelio sarà in scena al Teatro La Fenice il 20, 23, 25, 27, 30 novembre 2021. A pochi giorni dal Natale si rinnova l’appuntamento con la danza, con il ritorno a Venezia di una delle compagnie più apprezzate della scena internazionale: dopo il Romeo e Giulietta presentato nel 2019, Les Ballets de Monte-Carlo calcheranno di nuovo il palcoscenico della Fenice con Lac, una rilettura del Lago dei cigni del coreografo Jean-Christophe Maillot. Basata su una drammaturgia ideata da Maillot insieme allo scrittore Jean Rouaud, su musiche originali di Čajkovskij con aggiunte di Bertrand Maillot che saranno eseguite dal vivo dall’Orchestra del Teatro La Fenice diretta da Igor Dronov, la coreografia fonde balletto classico e danza moderna dando vita a uno spettacolo drammatico e sensuale, attraversato dall’inizio alla fine da una intrigante tensione. -
