Aristides Gazetas Costumes by Leo Van Witsen lillllllllllllllllllllllllllillllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllillllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll NOTE ON THE TANGLEWOOD PRODUCTION In the present production (which is very likely the first in the western hemisphere) all the orchestrally accompanied numbers will be heard in the original form and in the order given in Paisiello's original manuscript, a microfilm of which could fortunately be obtained from the composer's native city of Naples. The only major change is the substitution of spoken dialogue for the secco recitatives of the original version. The uninspired sequence of harmonies in these recitatives creates a strong suspicion that these sections of the score had been entrusted to one of Paisiello's pupils, a common practice in the eighteenth century when composers were expected to fashion full-length works on extremely short notice. Paisiello's score has many features of extraordinary interest. Especially remarkable are the two extended finales, the one to the first act being a worthy precursor of the great second-act finale of Mozart's The Marriage of Figaro. In this connection it is worth mentioning that Mozart was present at the first performance of King Theodore in Venice in Vienna and was obviously greatly impressed by the work.

  • A Contemporary Application of Boris Goldovsky's Method for Training the Operatic Singer-Actor
    A CONTEMPORARY APPLICATION OF BORIS GOLDOVSKY’S METHOD FOR TRAINING THE OPERATIC SINGER-ACTOR: A MODEL FOR TODAY’S UNIVERSITY OPERA WORKSHOP INSTRUCTOR Jennifer Glidden, B.M., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS December 2014 APPROVED: Stephen Austin, Major Professor and chair of the Department of Vocal Studies Paula Homer, Committee Member Jeffery Snider, Committee Member Benjamin Brand, Director of Graduate Studies James Scott, Dean of the School of Music Mark Wardell, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Glidden, Jennifer. A Contemporary Application of Boris Goldovsky’s Method for Training the Operatic Singer-Actor: A Model for Today’s University Opera Workshop Instructor. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), December 2014, 142 pp., 9 tables, 20 musical examples, references, 75 titles. Throughout the twentieth century, Boris Goldovsky (1908-2001) played a significant role in training the operatic singer-actor. One of his most significant contributions was integrating music and drama. He taught his students how to develop a character, how to find dramatic clues in the music, and to become expressive artists free from monotonous operatic gestures and posturing. As author of the first textbook for training the operatic singer-actor, his curriculum was developed from experience, acting traditions, and mentor-student relationships. A new forum, Opera Workshop, allowed him to experiment and test his methods. Although Goldovsky is known to some scholars as the “Father of Training the Operatic Singer-Actor,” his presence in modern day training material is almost non-existent. How can we understand the needs of educating today’s operatic singer-actor without knowing the very foundation upon which it was built? This paper applies Goldovsky’s method of training to a staging and performance of Act II scene I from Humperdinck’s Hansel and Gretel.

  • [email protected] JEFFREY KAHANE to RETURN
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE April 21, 2015 Contact: Katherine E. Johnson (212) 875-5718; [email protected] JEFFREY KAHANE TO RETURN TO THE PHILHARMONIC TO CONDUCT AND PERFORM ALL-MOZART PROGRAM Piano Concertos Nos. 20 and 21 and Symphony No. 38, Prague June 3–6, 2015 Jeffrey Kahane will return to the New York Philharmonic to conduct and perform an all-Mozart program featuring Mozart’s Piano Concertos Nos. 20 and 21 and Symphony No. 38, Prague, Wednesday, June 3, 2015, at 7:30 p.m.; Thursday, June 4 at 7:30 p.m.; Friday, June 5 at 11:00 a.m.; and Saturday, June 6 at 8:00 p.m. Jeffrey Kahane most recently led and performed with the Philharmonic in March 2014 in a program of Ravel, Weill, and Gershwin. The New York Times wrote that “He conducted the ensemble with confident energy from the piano. ... Mr. Kahane’s conducting and his pianism were clear, straightforward and unassuming, even in virtuosic passages, letting the connections between the works speak, as it were, for themselves. The result was that happy rarity: a symphonic concert with a sustained mood.” Conductor-pianists who have led the Philharmonic from the piano in performances of Mozart piano concertos include: Leonard Bernstein, Erich Leinsdorf, Bruno Walter, Daniel Barenboim, Lukas Foss, and Boris Goldovsky, in addition to Jeffrey Kahane. Related Events Pre-Concert Insights Composer Joelle Wallach will introduce the program. Pre-Concert Insights are $7; discounts available for multiple talks, students, and groups. They take place one hour before these performances in the Helen Hull Room, unless otherwise noted.
