It is a great privilege to gather and share stories on this beautiful territory, which has been the site of human activity — and therefore storytelling — for many thousands of years. We wish to honour the ancestral guardians of this land and its waterways: the Anishinaabe, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, the Wendat, and the Attiwonderonk. Today many Indigenous peoples continue to call this land home and act as its stewards, and this responsibility extends to all peoples, to share and care for this land for generations to come.

Nineteenth-Century Music Review, 14 (2017), pp 211–242. © Cambridge University Press, 2016 doi:10.1017/S1479409816000082 First published online 8 September 2016 Romantic Nostalgia and Wagnerismo During the Age of Verismo: The Case of Alberto Franchetti* Davide Ceriani Rowan University Email: [email protected] The world premiere of Pietro Mascagni’s Cavalleria rusticana on 17 May 1890 immediately became a central event in Italy’s recent operatic history. As contemporary music critic and composer, Francesco D’Arcais, wrote: Maybe for the first time, at least in quite a while, learned people, the audience and the press shared the same opinion on an opera. [Composers] called upon to choose the works to be staged, among those presented for the Sonzogno [opera] competition, immediately picked Mascagni’s Cavalleria rusticana as one of the best; the audience awarded this composer triumphal honours, and the press 1 unanimously praised it to the heavens. D’Arcais acknowledged Mascagni’smeritsbut,inthesamearticle,alsourgedcaution in too enthusiastically festooning the work with critical laurels: the dangers of excessive adulation had already become alarmingly apparent in numerous ill-starred precedents. In the two decades prior to its premiere, several other Italian composers similarly attained outstanding critical and popular success with a single work, but were later unable to emulate their earlier achievements. Among these composers were Filippo Marchetti (Ruy Blas, 1869), Stefano Gobatti (IGoti, 1873), Arrigo Boito (with the revised version of Mefistofele, 1875), Amilcare Ponchielli (La Gioconda, 1876) and Giovanni Bottesini (Ero e Leandro, 1879). Once again, and more than a decade after Bottesini’s one-hit wonder, D’Arcais found himself wondering whether in Mascagni ‘We [Italians] have finally [found] … the legitimate successor to [our] great composers, the person 2 who will perpetuate our musical glory?’ This hoary nationalist interrogative returned in 1890 like an old-fashioned curse. -

Historical Verism in Ruggero Leoncavallo's I Medici

In my opinion, the libretto is the key to understand- ing operatic dramas; it constitutes their primary foundation, on which the subsequent semantic layers of this naturally syncretic musical genre are constructed. In my paper I have therefore analysed the individual components of the libretto, with special emphasis on the persons of the drama, their personality traits, as well as their musical representations in Leoncavallo’s work. Analysis of the dramaturgical aspects of the opera is an essential first step to a consideration of the musical layer, which lies at the heart of my research. In my paper, I have followed the path mapped out by musicologist Luca Zoppelli; however, his work is only the starting point for a more detailed study of the opera’s expressive qualities and the procedures applied for the musical representation of veristic ideas. Verity – not only in the historical sense – becomes a leading category which unifies 139 Kwartalnik Młodych Muzykologów UJ, No. 47 (4/2020) the opera at every level, from its original source recorded in the chronicles to the composer’s presentation of the story.

Operas Performed in New York City in 2013 (Compiled by Mark Schubin)
Operas Performed in New York City in 2013 (compiled by Mark Schubin) What is not included in this list: There are three obvious categories: anything not performed in 2013, anything not within the confines of New York City, and anything not involving singing. Empire Opera was supposed to perform Montemezzi’s L'amore dei tre re in November; it was postponed to January, so it’s not on the list. Similarly, even though Bard, Caramoor, and Peak Performances provide bus service from midtown Manhattan to their operas, even though the New York City press treats the excellent but four-hours-away-by-car Glimmerglass Festival like a local company, and even though it’s faster to get from midtown Manhattan to some performances on Long Island or in New Jersey or Westchester than to, say, Queens College, those out-of-city productions are not included on the main list (just for reference, I put Bard, Caramoor, and Peak Performances in an appendix). And, although the Parterre Box New York Opera Calendar (which includes some non-opera events) listed A Rite, a music-theatrical dance piece performed at the BAM Opera House, I didn’t because no performer in it sang. I did not include anything that wasn’t a local in-person performance. The cinema transmissions from the Met, Covent Garden, La Scala, etc., are not included (nor is the movie Metallica: Through the Never, which Owen Gleiberman in Entertainment Weekly called a “grand 3-D opera”). I did not include anything that wasn’t open to the public, so the Met’s workshop of Scott Wheeler’s The Sorrows of Frederick is not on the list. -

Pagliacci − an Opera by Ruggero Leoncavallo
PAGLIACCI − AN OPERA BY RUGGERO LEONCAVALLO Pagliacci (in English: Clowns) is an Italian opera with a prologue and two acts, with both the music and the libretto by Ruggero Leoncavallo. Opera companies have frequently staged Pagliacci together with Cavalleria rusticana by Mascagni, a double bill known colloquially as 'Cav and Pag'. Ruggero Leoncavallo, a son of a judge, was born on 1857 in Naples. He studied at the Naples Conservatory and then moved to Paris to try there a musical career but he got only so far as playing in cafés and giving piano and singing lessons. The only positive aspect of his time in Paris was that during this time he met a young lady, Berthe Rambaud, a "preferred student" of his, so much preferred that she became his wife. He also composed around this time a symphonic poem "La nuit de mai" (English: ‘A Night in May’), which premiered to critical acclaim. With this success and now with enough accumulated money, Leoncavallo and his wife returned to Milan to try his luck there as an opera composer. He spent some years teaching and attempting ineffectively to obtain the production of another of his operas. Then in 1890, at age 33, he saw the enormous success of Pietro Mascagni's Cavalleria rusticana and wasted no time in producing in only five months, his own verismo work, Pagliacci. As the Cavalleria, which we heard last Sunday, this is also a quintessentially verismo opera, a genre that is oriented toward the lives of average contemporary man and woman and their problems, generally of a romantic, sexual, or violent nature, instead of dealing with gods, mythological figures, or kings and queens. -
