    OPERAPOINT Jahrgang 20, Heft 4, 2020 Einzelpreis 6 Euro Magazin für Oper und Konzert - unabhängig - publikumsnah Die Zauberfl öte in der Kölner Oper Hier lege ich Ihnen, liebe Lesergemeinde, das 4. Heft 2020 vor. Diesmal wird es durch die verschiedenen Festivals ermöglicht, zwölf Opernrezen- Editorial sionen vorzustellen. Die meisten Kritiken verdanken wir unserem uner- müdlichen Redakteur Oliver Hohlbach. Er durchfährt mit viel Courage die deutschen und ausländischen Länder und erläutert mit Sachverstand die vorgeschriebenen Verordnungen der Regierungen, die dem Volk die Ansteckungen des Virus ersparen wollen. Den Sommerurlaub verbrachte unser Boardmitglied Dr. Martin Knust auf einem Segeltörn in Schweden. Es läßt seine Bürger trotz Virusge- fahr – trotz erheblicher Kritik vieler Länder – frei handeln. In der Nähe Stockholms gibt es eine ausgedehnte Schärenlandschaft. Dr. Knust schil- dert neben der Landschaft mit vielen eindrucksvollen Seebildern auch den schwedischen Komponisten Hugo Alfvén, der kaum jemand der Leser- schaft bekannt seine dürfte, dessen Werke aber großen Hörgenuß berei- ten. Auch in Köln gab es die Oper Die Zauberfl öte ohne Kürzungen in der bewährten Regie von Michael Hampe, dessen unvergeßlicher Zeiten als Kölner Opernintendant von zwei Jahrzehnten 1975-1995 man sich in der jetzigen Theaterinstanz entsann und ihn zu dieser Inszenierung eingela- den hat. Die reduzierten Opernbesucher quittierten seine intelligente und gekonnte Leistung mit starkem Applaus. Die Sängerschar der Premiere, die ich am 3. Oktober 2020 besuchte, ist über die Maßen zu loben. Einer davon, der französische Tenor Julien Behr, war bereit, mir ein Interview zu gewähren, das Sie auf Seite 15 lesen können. Eine der Erscheinungen, die diese Zeiten hervorgebracht haben, ist die Entdeckung der Sächsischen Landschaft in Deutschland.

  • Der Stein Der Weisen and Die Zauberflöte
    Nota Bene: Canadian Undergraduate Journal of Musicology Volume 12 | Issue 1 Article 3 Magic and Enlightenment auf der Weisen: Der Stein der Weisen and Die Zauberflöte Mercer Greenwald Bard College Conservatory of Music Recommended Citation Greenwald, Mercer. “Magic and Enlightenment auf der Weisen: Der Stein der Weisen and Die Zaouberflöte.” Nota Bene: Canadian Undergraduate Journal of Musicology Vol. 12, no. 1 (2019): 30-45. https://doi.org/10.5206/notabene.v12i1.8145 Magic and Enlightenment auf der Weisen: Der Stein der Weisen and Die Zauberflöte Abstract This paper probes how the rational and the irrational interact in Enlightenment operatic plots, and explores the effect of this interaction on the Viennese public. To do this, I will investigate the fantastic worlds of two operas premiered by the same opera company, both with libretti written by Emanuel Schikaneder: Der Stein der Weisen oder Die Zauberinsel (1790) and Die Zauberflöte (1791). David J. Buch’s seminal book Magic Flutes and Enchanted Forests (2008) explores the intertextual threads of magical ideas in Der Stein der Weisen and Die Zauberflöte, that is, how librettists and composers translated and reprocessed magical themes. I will draw on Buch’s comparison to show how these intertextual connections can be read for their broad cultural resonances. In this paper, I will first establish the connections between Der Stein der Weisen and Die Zauberflöte in plot and in music. Then I will show how the later opera diverges from its predecessor and discuss how it manages to diminish the polarity of rationality and irrationality considered central to Enlightenment thinking. Ultimately, I argue, Die Zauberflöte facilitates its audience’s access to Enlightenment values by magical means.

  • Fall 04 9-16.Idd
    CENTER FOR AUSTRIAN STUDIES AUSTRIAN STUDIES NEWSLETTER Vol. 16, No. 2 Fall 2004 Thomas Klestil at home and abroad by Anton Pelinka Thomas Klestil (1932-2004), the seventh federal president of Austria since 1945, died less than two days before his tenure as head of state would have ended. Klestil’s life and career reflect the success story of the Second Republic, but also some critical aspects of Austria. In America, where he spent many years as a diplomat, he did much to promote a positive Austrian image. As president, he tempered that judiciously with post-Waldheim honesty and won many friends for Austria in Central Europe. However, within his own country, he was a controversial man who was sometimes at odds with his party and lacked the necessary power to change policy. Klestil was the product of an atypical social and political environment: His family was strictly Catholic, but his father worked for the Vienna public transportation authority. As a streetcar conductor, his father was part of an overwhelmingly socialist milieu. But his Catholic background made him and his family a minority—a Catholic conservative exception, living in a typical blue-collar part of Vienna (Erdberg); a member of the Catholic conservative camp surrounded by members of the socialist camp. Thomas Klestil’s career was influenced by these roots. During his studies at the University of Economics in Vienna, he joined a Catholic fraternity—the “Cartell-Verband” (CV), which has always been strongly identified with the Christian Social Party, with the Dollfuß Regime and, beginning in 1945, with the Austrian People’s Party (ÖVP).

  • August 2019 List
    August 2019 Catalogue Issue 40 Prices valid until Friday 27 September 2019 unless stated otherwise 0115 982 7500 The Wiener Staatsoper, celebrating its 150th birthday this year [email protected] Your Account Number: {MM:Account Number} {MM:Postcode} {MM:Address5} {MM:Address4} {MM:Address3} {MM:Address2} {MM:Address1} {MM:Name} 1 Welcome! Dear Customer, DG and Decca have pulled out all the operatic stops this month, with three very special releases featuring some of their best soloists. Mexican tenor Javier Camarena’s ‘Contrabandista’ recital marks the first issue in the ‘Mentored by Bartoli’ series on Decca - a partnership between Decca and the Cecilia Bartoli Music Foundation. Arias by Verdi are the focus of DG’s new recording from Russian bass, Ildar Abdrazakov, conducted by Yannick Nezet-Seguin, who also happens to take the lead in a brand new recording of Die Zauberflote, the sixth in DG’s current series of Mozart operas. It is the latter that we have been particularly taken by, so you will find it as our ‘Disc of the Month’ for August, as well as being at a very special price as part of our new DG & Decca Opera Sale (found on pp.13-18). Another recording which was a strong contender for the ‘Disc of the Month’ position, was Mahan Esfahani’s performance of Bach’s Toccatas on a rather fabulous harpsichord - Hyperion have done a sterling job in capturing Esfahani’s consummate skill in interpreting these works. Other highlights for August include the second instalment in The Illyria Consort’s recordings of sonatas by Carbonelli; hi-fi Holst and Elgar from the Bergen Philharmonic and Andrew Litton on BIS; lesser-known Beethoven from the Helsinki Baroque Orchestra, who provide us with a gripping performance of Beethoven’s complete incidental music to Egmont (Ondine); plus we have Messiaen from Tom Winpenny (Naxos), Handel from the Akademie fur Alte Musik Berlin (Pentatone), and Brahms/Dvorak from Jakub Hrusa and the Bamberger Symphoniker (Tudor), to name but a few.

  • The House Composers of the Theater Auf Der Wieden in the Time of Mozart (1789-91)1
    The House Composers of the Theater auf der Wieden in the Time of Mozart (1789-91)1 DAVID J. BUCH Some of the most important theatrical music in Europe was produced at the Theater auf der Wieden in suburban Vienna in the years 1789 to 1801. Beginning with the immensely popular Die zween Anton oder der dumme Gärtner aus dem Gebirge in July 1789, Emanuel Schikaneder produced one successful singspiel after another. The most successful of these were quickly staged in other European venues, both in the original German and in translation.2 Yet, until recently, we have known only a single opera from that period, Mozart’s Die Zauberflöte. Because scholars have not studied this repertory,3 a myth of singularity for Mozart’s singspiel has dominated the secondary literature. But Mozart’s opera was in fact the fourth in a series of fairy-tale singspiels based on texts associated with Christoph Martin Wieland. And the music of Mozart’s singspiel is firmly rooted in a unique style developed at the theater by a group of talented composers who interacted with Mozart, both learning from the master and influencing him in turn. Another myth about this theater has also persisted in modern literature, namely, that the music was of an inferior quality and that the performances were rather crude. While there is one derisive review of a performance at the Theater auf der Wieden by a north German commentator in 1793,4 most contemporary reviews were positive, noting a high standard of musical performance. In his unpublished autobiography, Ignaz von Seyfried recalled performances of operas in the early 1790s by Mozart, Süßmayr, Hoffmeister etc., writing that they were performed with rare skill (ungemein artig).
