Download Hommage an Tamburini Grußwort der Schirmherrin Sehr gerne habe ich die Schirmherrschaft der 29. Auflage Hommage an des Opernfestivals ROSSINI IN WILDBAD übernommen. Ein vielseitiges Potpourri aus Opern und Konzerten erwartet Antonio Tamburini die hoffentlich überaus zahlreichen Besucherinnen und Besucher der traditionellen Veranstaltungsreihe. Damit gedenken die Veranstalter des großen italienischen Kom- ponisten Gioachino Rossini, der, wie viele andere große Recital Geister, eine Zeit seines Lebens im heutigen Baden- mit Musik von Württemberg zubrachte. Balducci, Balfe, Bellini, Besonders freut mich, dass im Rahmen des Festivals auch der Nachwuchsförderung Coccia, Donizetti, Generali, eine tragende Rolle zukommt. Die Zahl der diversen Freizeitaktivitäten und auch der Marliani und Mercadante Ablenkungen ist heute sehr groß, gerade im Zeitalter der Digitalisierung. Nichts geht aber über das analoge, direkte Erleben szenischmusikalischer Darbietungen in Spitzen- qualität wie beim Belcanto Opera Festival ROSSINI IN WILDBAD. Vittorio Prato Bariton Dabei ist es wichtig, junge Menschen für das Musizieren – einer herausragend wert- José Miguel Pérez-Sierra Musikalische Leitung vollen kulturellen Aktivität – zu begeistern. Einige Musiker und Sängerkarrieren haben in Bad Wildbad ihren erfolgreichen Anfang genommen. Damit leistet ROSSINI IN WILD- BAD auch einen wertvollen und hochzuschätzenden Beitrag für die Karrierechancen junger Musikerinnen und Musiker. Auch in meiner täglichen bildungspolitischen Arbeit besitzt Musik eine wichtige Bedeutung. Mir ist dort der Musikunterricht in den Schulen sehr wichtig. Er legt die Grundlage für eigenes Musizieren der Schülerinnen und Schüler, für bewussten lebenslangen Musikgenuss und für die Pflege unschätzbar wertvollen Kulturgutes. ROSSINI IN WILDBAD trägt zu allen drei Aspekten inzwischen seit fast drei Jahr- zehnten einen glanzvollen und attraktiven Teil bei. Ich danke allen an der Organisation und Durchführung Beteiligten sehr herzlich und wünsche den Festival-Besuchern ein unvergessliches, wunderschönes und sommerlichfestliches Musikerlebnis.

  • I Puritani a Londra: Rassegna Stampa (Maggio - Ottobre 1835) Alice Bellini - Daniela Macchione*
    i, 2015 issn 2283-8716 I Puritani a Londra: rassegna stampa (maggio - ottobre 1835) Alice Bellini - Daniela Macchione* Si pubblica qui di seguito una raccolta di recensioni relative alla prima stagione dei Puritani1 di Vincenzo Bellini al King’s Theatre di Londra (21 maggio-15 agosto 1835). Le fonti utilizzate comprendono un’ampia varietà di periodici, senza tuttavia alcuna pretesa di completezza. I due omaggi alla memoria di Bellini aggiunti alla fine della rassegna, espressione di due differenti correnti critiche, sono stati scelti tra i vari articoli pubblicati a Londra alla notizia della morte del compositore; essi riassumono i primi sei anni di presenza belliniana sulle scene inglesi e illustrano la controversa recezione critica dell’opera italiana a Londra. I documenti sono presentati in ordine alfabetico per testata e cronologico per data di pubblicazione. L’ordine cronologico qui adottato ha il vantaggio di mettere in evidenza la particolarità delle somiglianze tra articoli pubblicati in diverse testate, dovute plausibilmente soprattutto all’autoimprestito, una pratica comune nella pubblicistica musicale londinese del tempo, così spiegata da Leanne Langley: Music journalists were obliged to be neither thorough nor objective; literary recycling and self-borrowing (often without acknowledgment) were common practices; most London music journalists, then as now, were freelancers working for more than one periodical, often anonymously and perhaps shading the tone and content of their writing to suit a given journal’s market profile;

  • Gianni Di Calais
    GAETANO DONIZETTI GIANNI DI CALAIS Melodramma semiserio in tre atti Prima rappresentazione: Napoli, Teatro del Fondo, 2 VIII 1828 Il 1828 fu un anno felice per Gaetano Donizetti: la collaborazione con Domenico Gilardoni procedeva proficuamente e L'esule di Roma gli aveva procurato il maggior successo della sua carriera napoletana. Con Barbaja aveva sottoscritto un nuovo contratto più redditizio e meno oneroso ed il debutto genovese di Alina, regina di Golconda (12 maggio) aveva ottenuto un "felicissimo esito" (a Mayr, 15 maggio 1828). Ma soprattutto il compositore aveva potuto sposare, il primo giugno, l'amata Virginia Vasselli. Gianni di Calais, composto in quell'estate, sembra risentire di un clima particolarmente sereno e propizio. In un tono allegro e favolistico, la vicenda si svolge secondo avvenimenti regolarmente anticipati dai protagonisti, togliendo attesa ed imprevedibilità alla successione dei fatti. Tra i protagonisti spicca la figura di Rustano, paladino del migliore sentimento di amicizia. La sua parte fu scritta per il celebre buffo Antonio Tamburini, acclamato per le sue eccezionali doti di vocalista. L'esordio ("Una barchetta in mar solcando va") è una divertente barcarola: l'amenità e l'arguzia del personaggio si svelano per mezzo di una canzone popolare napoletana, che suscitò l'entusiasmo del pubblico partenopeo. È affidata a Rustano anche la lieta conclusione ("Non vi è bene senza pene"), un rondò fedele alle consuetudini del tempo. Altro interprete di rango il tenore Giovanni Battista Rubini, nel ruolo di Gianni, la cui aria d'esordio ("Feste, pompe, omaggi, onori") verrà utilizzata da Donizetti nella versione italiana della Fille du reggiment (aria di Tonio).

Mitchell and Son at 39 Charing Cross, and printed by J. Limbird at 143, Strand. In all only forty-five issues were distributed, for by Volume II, no. 43, 27 October 1840 the editor became aware of the need for termination owing to the general decline in provincial concerts (the festivals) and professional concerts and operas in London.1 Thus no issues were published in November, and only three biweekly issues appeared in December. Each issue contains sixteen pages with the exception of Volume II, no. 28, which has only fourteen. Volume I contains issue numbers 1 through 26 (7 January to 30 June, 1840), while Volume II contains numbers 27 through 46, (7 July to 29 December, 1840).2 The journal’s 730 pages are printed in single-column format, and the pages are numbered consecutively in each volume. Indices for both volumes are given at the outset of each half-year in the New York Public Library microfilm copy of the journal used for this RIPM publication.3 The names of the editors are not given in the journal, and all texts relating to it, which might be attributed to an editor, are unsigned.

  • About This Newsletter Feature Article
    Volume 5, Late Spring 2019 American Rossini Society Newsletter Date Volume 5, Late Spring 2019 About this newsletter The theme of this issue is Semiramide(ossia “cuts and historical instruments”) inspired by the recording of the opera by Opera Rara. In addition to the Semiramide- specific articles we bring you two related to historical instruments, including our featured article noted below. It is perhaps reasonable to call Opera Rara’s recording “historic” already now as it is the first of the uncut version performed with period instruments. The recording recently received the “Complete Opera Recording of the Year” award from the Opera Awards Foundation. It is also a studio recording and in Richard Osborne’s words: ”It’s a bespoke studio recording, of course; expensive to produce but,my goodness,what a difference that makes.” Inside this issue Before the recording was made, Sir Mark Elder gave a delightful talk about the opera: its recording history,cuts,historical instruments,and the challenges of performing Review of OR Semiramide 2 By Paul Pelkonen Rossini. Some changes in cast were made between the time he gave this presentation and the recording was made,but we encourage you to set the time aside to watch and listen. Elder’s presentation is long but like the recording, worth every minute of one’s Semiramide: an editorial discovery 3 By Patricia Brauner time. https://vimeo.com/179028442 Blogging at the Proms 4 Elder observes that cuts are often necessary ( as it was for the Proms performance in connection with the recording) but

    Chapter Four “Un misérable eunuque” He had his Spring contract, his librettist was by his side and he had sympathy galore - no one whatsoever in musical circles in Milan could have been unaware of the Venetian scam,i from now on the guilty pair would be viewed askance by operatic managements throughout the peninsula. The direction of La Scala - only too willing to be supportive - agreed against all their usual caution to a religious heroine to fulfil Pacini’s contractual engagement and Giovanna d’Arco was the result - a saintly martyr bedevilled not just by the familiar occult and heretic foes but by the dilatory behaviour of the librettist in question - Gaetano Barbieri - who confessed that only half his text was actually in hand when rehearsals began in February 1830. Even if the great theatre was not unduly dismayed by the delay that resulted it put the opera and its composer into bad odour with its audience, after excuse after excuse and postponement after postponement of the prima, Pacini was obliged to ask the Chief of Police to impose a measure of calm and it was only at the very last gasp of the season that the curtains parted on his Giovanna and then before a sea of angry faces. The composer was hissed as he took his seat at the cembalo but smiled merely as they were confronted by a genuine novelty: Henriette Méric-Lalande in bed asleep. Her “dream aria” in which the bienheureuse greets her sacred destiny met with murmurs (Italian audiences seldom warmed to devotional intimacies on stage) but her truly seraphic cavatina, immaculately sung, brought them down to earth like a perfect miracle.

  • Marino Faliero
    GAETANO DONIZETTI MARINO FALIERO Tragedia lirica in tre atti Prima rappresentazione: Parigi, Theatre Italien, 12 III 1835 Per Donizetti, Parigi significava il riconoscimento internazionale della sua fama, con maggiori guadagni e soprattutto minor vincoli di censura. Il compositore aveva già sperato di arrivare ai teatri della capitale francese con Gianni di Calais (1828), opera prediletta dal tenore Giovanni Battista Rubini, che ne era stato il primo interprete. Per lo stesso Rubini, che stava realizzando una splendida carriera in Francia ed in Inghilterra, Donizetti aveva scritto appositamente Gianni di Parigi (1831), ma il tenore non lo interpretò mai. Nell'estate 1833 gli impresari del Theatre Italien, Edouard Robert e Carlo Severini, avevano cercato di portare a Parigi Parisina con il soprano Caroline Ungher, ma le trattative si interruppero per le eccessive richieste dell'impresario Lanari. Nel febbraio 1834 Donizetti ricevette direttamente da Rossini l'invito a comporre un'opera per il Theatre Italien di Parigi; il libretto fu realizzato dall'esordiente italo-greco Giovanni Emanuele Bidera. Alla fine del 1834 il compositore partì per Parigi portando con sé la partitura di Marino Faliero pressoché ultimata. Nella capitale francese il lavoro fu però rivisto seguendo i suggerimenti di Rossini, che già aveva fatto lo stesso con Bellini per I puritani. Il soggetto venne scelto in quanto già noto ai francesi attraverso l'omonima tragedia di Delavigne, presentata con vivo successo a Parigi nel 1829; inoltre prevedeva ruoli di importanza adeguata al quartetto di "primi artisti" formato da Giulia Grisi, Rubini, Luigi Lablache ed Antonio Tamburini. Marino Faliero propone ruoli vocali abbastanza lontani dalle convenzioni ed in parte inediti: la coppia baritono-basso riveste infatti maggior importanza rispetto a quella più tradizionale tenore-soprano; 165 inoltre alla parte del basso è riservato il rilievo maggiore.

  • CHAPTER III Historical and Pre-Historical' Short Accounts on The
    CHAPTER III i i -hi i ’ h u h N i g. The style of Neapolitan singing. The posteggiatori (strolling musicians) The first accounts of song compositions in Neapolitan date back at least to the first half of the thirteenth century. Ettore De Mura9 wrote: "Here we have the first convincing signs of the presence of the Neapolitan song". And the customary reference to Jesce sole is just to emphasize what Vittorio Paliotti wrote on the subject: the song " Must have been quite successful, if it has been translated into several dialects..." and that the lyrics have been lying in a 15th century versifier codex in the Paris National Library.10 These song compositions, just "Signs", cannot be called “ Neapolitan songs “ since they are primitive forms of a genre in both their literary and musical structure, they are just one of the seeds of a plant that would bear the best fruit during the 19th century and in an ever increasing manner. Antonio Venci points out that «... Since the 12th century minstrels travelled throughout Italy...coming from France... they sang the " Chanson de Gestes"...»and while in " Florence, at the time of Lorenzo il Magnifico and in the whole of Tuscany , they were singing May songs. Carnival songs, Travelling Theatres Sirventes, Lays, Romances, Pastorals.... In Naples they sang La Canzone pe lo spasso de sto Carnevale (song for the fun of this Carnival), especially lo Recottaro,(ricotta seller) lo 'Nfornataro (the baker),lo Ciardeniero (the gardener), lo Cacciatore(the hunter), lo Polliero (the chicken seller), lo Pisciavinnolo(the fishmonger)...11.
