  • El Camino De Verdi Al Verismo: La Gioconda De Ponchielli the Road of Verdi to Verism: La Gioconda De Ponchielli
    Revista AV Notas, Nº8 ISSN: 2529-8577 Diciembre, 2019 EL CAMINO DE VERDI AL VERISMO: LA GIOCONDA DE PONCHIELLI THE ROAD OF VERDI TO VERISM: LA GIOCONDA DE PONCHIELLI Joaquín Piñeiro Blanca Universidad de Cádiz RESUMEN Con Giuseppe Verdi se amplificaron y superaron los límites del Bel Canto representado, fundamentalmente, por Rossini, Bellini y Donizetti. Se abrieron nuevos caminos para la lírica italiana y en la evolución que terminaría derivando en la eclosión del Verismo que se articuló en torno a una nutrida generación de autores como Leoncavallo, Mascagni o Puccini. Entre Verdi y la Giovane Scuola se situaron algunos compositores que constituyeron un puente entre ambos momentos creativos. Entre ellos destacó Amilcare Ponchielli (1834-1886), profesor de algunos de los músicos más destacados del Verismo y autor de una de las óperas más influyentes del momento: La Gioconda (1876-1880), estudiada en este artículo en sus singularidades formales y de contenido que, en varios aspectos, hacen que se adelante al modelo teórico verista. Por otra parte, se estudian también cuáles son los elementos que conserva de los compositores italianos precedentes y las influencias del modelo estético francés, lo que determina que la obra y su compositor sean de complicada clasificación, aunque habitualmente se le identifique incorrectamente con el Verismo. Palabras clave: Ponchielli; Verismo; Giovane Scuola; ópera; La Gioconda; Italia ABSTRACT With Giuseppe Verdi, the boundaries of Bel Canto were amplified and exceeded, mainly represented by Rossini, Bellini and Donizetti. New paths were opened for the Italian lyric and in the evolution that would end up leading to the emergence of Verismo that was articulated around a large generation of authors such as Leoncavallo, Mascagni or Puccini.
