Opera House Sponsors: Notes: Program note: "Un Ballo in Maschera" was written shortly after the attempt on the life of Napoleon III. First called "Gustavo III," after an assassinated Swedish monarch, it carried in its plot a similar murder and its intended presentation in Naples was prohibited. Later it was given in Rome but, in order to meet police requirements, with locale changed to Colonial America and Gustavo III to Richard "Count" of Warwick and "Governor" of Boston. Corps de Ballet Jussi Bjoerling's Act III aria: Arthur Bloomfield in his book "San Francisco Opera, 1923-1978" stipulates Bjoerling sang the third act aria he later cut at the Met and elsewhere. The only proof of this being true is the review of a Los Angeles performance, which indeed mentions the aria. The printed program lists that particular scene, a scene consisting of his aria and a brief exchange with Oscar, which would seem to indicate that it did take place. No orchestra scores from that time exist, so the fact can not be verified in that fashion. All indications are that he DID sing it at the War Memorial and with the Company on tour..

  • DIMITRIS PAKSOGLOU – Tenor Born in Greece. Dimitris Paksoglou First Embarked on a Career As an Actor and Studied at the National Superior School of Drama
    DIMITRIS PAKSOGLOU – Tenor Born in Greece. Dimitris Paksoglou first embarked on a career as an actor and studied at the National Superior School of Drama. As an actor he went on to appear in important Greek theatres, including the ancient theatre of Epidaurus, the Greek National Theatre and the Athens Megaron. He then decided to make a career change and studied singing at the Athens National Conservatory under the guidance of the famous baritone Kostas Paskalis and Marina Krilovici, graduating with distinction. He moved to France where he appeared with several opera companies and his success lead Greek National Opera to offer him a contract as a principal tenor. He continues to appear in leading roles with the company, which he combines with guest appearances abroad. Greek Dimitris Paksoglou does not sing Cavaradossi with the usual slightly emotional Mediterranean glow. His tenor is more powerfully virile, but also with beautiful splashes of tenderness. He makes his famous song for life with considerable intensity. AFTONBLADET – Lennart Bromander - Monday 10th February 2020 Dimitris Paksoglou who sang Cavaradossi is a real Italian tenor (although he is Greek) with plenty of power and clear tone up to the highest register.

In New York, THIRTEEN will premiere the opera on the previous Thursday, August 23 at 9 p.m. with an encore presentation Sunday, August 26 at 12:30 p.m. Matthew Polenzani co-stars as Alfredo Germont, a young man from a good family who is willing to risk everything for Violetta. Dmitri Hvorostovsky sings Giorgio Germont, Alfredo’s father, who disapproves of Violetta’s lifestyle, but is moved by her plight. Met Principal Conductor Fabio Luisi leads Verdi’s romantic tragedy, one of the most beloved operas of all time, in Willy Decker ’s highly theatrical production, a hit when it premiered at the Met in 2010. In recent seasons, Dessay has sung the role at the Vienna State Opera, the Aix-en- Provence Festival, and the Santa Fe Opera.

Some people think that one of the highest compli- its c ments that can be paid to an opera is that "there is not an extra note in it." This means that every word and every note have meaning in 4. the opera and that the work would be less than perfect without them. An opera does not have to be short to merit this accolade. The RIGOLETTO same has been said of Wagner's five-and-a-half-hour Götterdäm- merung, and, with only the slightest hesitation, I would agree.
