Debussy's Pelléas Et Mélisande
Debussy’s Pelléas et Mélisande - A discographical survey by Ralph Moore Pelléas et Mélisande is a strange, haunting work, typical of the Symbolist movement in that it hints at truths, desires and aspirations just out of reach, yet allied to a longing for transcendence is a tragic, self-destructive element whereby everybody suffers and comes to grief or, as in the case of the lovers, even dies - yet frequent references to fate and Arkel’s ascribing that doleful outcome to ineluctable destiny, rather than human weakness or failing, suggest that they are drawn, powerless, to destruction like moths to the flame. The central enigma of Mélisande’s origin and identity is never revealed; that riddle is reflected in the wispy, amorphous property of the music itself, just as the text, adapted from Maeterlinck’s play, is vague and allusive, rarely open or direct in its expression of the characters’ velleities. The opera was highly innovative and controversial, a gateway to a new style of modern music which discarded and re-invented operatic conventions in a manner which is still arresting and, for some, still unapproachable. It is a work full of light and shade, sunlit clearings in gloomy forest, foetid dungeons and sea-breezes skimming the battlements, sparkling fountains, sunsets and brooding storms - all vividly depicted in the score. Any francophone Francophile will delight in the nuances of the parlando text. There is no ensemble or choral element beyond the brief sailors’ “Hoé! Hisse hoé!” offstage and only once do voices briefly intertwine, at the climax of the lovers' final duet. -

A large body of published research exists regarding the physiology of breathing, the acoustics of singing, and solutions for specific vocal faults. There is similarly a growing body of research into the system of voice classification and repertoire assignment. This paper shall reexamine this research in light of baritenor voices. After establishing the general parameters of healthy vocal technique through appoggio, the various tenor, baritone, and bass Fächer will be studied to establish norms of vocal criteria such as range, timbre, tessitura, and registration for each Fach. The study of these Fächer includes examinations of the historical singers for whom the repertoire was created and how those roles are cast by opera companies in modern times. The specific examination of baritenors follows the same format by examining current and -

... Ou comment un lieu magique, Oppède-le-Vieux, site patrimonial remarquable, nous invite au rêve et à l’utopie. La passion de Cyril Diederich, de ses amis musiciens et chanteurs lyriques s’est consacrée, lors des deux premières éditions du festival, en 2017 et en 2018, à suspendre le temps et faire de ces belles soirées d’été, une rencontre émotionnelle d’exception entre un public ébloui et la générosité des artistes. Ces moments d’enchantement éphémère, dans ce lieu privilégié, ont convaincu Cyril Diederich de perpétuer le rêve des « Concerts au coucher de soleil » en 2019, à Notre-Dame Dalidon, en gardant l’idée de proposer dans ces deux lieux (lieu sacré de la Collégiale et lieu profane du parvis), une programmation artistique originale et de qualité. Avec « CosÌ fan tutte », mise en espace par Nadine Duffaut, cette prochaine saison ouvrira le début d’un cycle de concerts consacré aux Opéras de Mozart, les 21 et 22 août 2019. Les soirées des 24 et 25 août dont la première partie sera consacré à la musique sacrée vocale et instrumentale, s’ouvriront en deuxième partie aux grands airs d’opéras dans leurs célèbres solos, duos ou trios, de Verdi à Massenet. Les solistes du Paris Symphonic Orchestre, tous membres des grands orchestres français nationaux, (Orchestre de l’Opéra de Paris, Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France, Orchestre National de Radio France, Orchestre de la Garde Républicaine) accompagneront nos chanteurs lyriques fidèles depuis la création. Pour garder le sens du devoir de transmission, Cyril Diederich aura plaisir à inviter également de jeunes solistes de haut niveau, issus de la nouvelle génération et découverts à l’occasion des « Saisons de la Voix » (Gordes 2018) et du concours de voix nouvelles 2018. -
