Swedish Debut at Royal Opera Stockholm with Handel's „Xerxes“
Press release Greek conductor George Petrou – Swedish debut at Royal Opera Stockholm with Handel’s „Xerxes“: 6. February 2015 Greek conductor George Petrou will be making his Swedish debut at the Royal Opera in Stockholm: On 6. February 2015 he will be conducting the revival of “Xerxes” by Georg Friedrich Handel. Katija Dragojevic will be heard in the titel role; other main characters will be represented by Susanna Stern (Romilda), Vivianne Holmberg (Atalante), Johanna Rudström (Arsamenes), Katarina Leoson (Amastris), John Erik Eleby (Ariodates) and Jens Persson (Elviro). The production was directed by Daniel Slater, stage design, costumes and mask by Robert Innes Hopkins. Further performances: 11., 14., 17., 24., 27. February and 3. March. George Petrou has been established as one of the world's leading Handel specialists. Many of his Handel-opera-recordings received important classical music awards like the French Diapason d’Or and Choc du monde de la musique as well as the German ECHO Klassik. For George Petrou “Xerxes” in Stockholm is also a premiere even though he has already conducted selected arias of the opera in the past: “Serse was a turning point in Handel's operatic output. It looked ahead into the future, breaking a great deal of the Opera seria conventions. Apparently it quite shocked the public with its novelty of structure and style, and it wasn't understood. However, it remains one of Handel's top creations.” “Xerxes” is one of the most frequently played operas by Handel. The plot unfolds as a comic rollercoaster of love, jealousy and secret desires in which nothing is quite as it seems. -
Early Music Review EDITIONS of MUSIC Here Are Thirteen Works in the Present Volume
Early Music Review EDITIONS OF MUSIC here are thirteen works in the present volume. The first two are masses by John Bedingham, while the others are anonymous mass movements (either New from Stainer & Bell T single or somehow related). Previous titles in the series have been reviewed by Clifford Bartlett, and I confess this English Thirteenth-century Polyphony is the first time I have looked at repertory from this period A Facsimile Edition by William J. Summers & Peter M. since I studied Du Fay at university! At that time I also Lefferts sang quite a lot of (slightly later) English music, so I am not Stainer & Bell, 2016. Early English Church Music, 57 completely unfamiliar with it. I was immediately struck 53pp+349 plates. by the rhythmic complexity and delighted to see that the ISMN 979 0 2202 2405 8; ISBN 978 0 85249 940 5 editions preserve the original note values and avoids bar £180 lines - one might expect this to complicate matters with ligatures and coloration to contend with, but actually it is his extraordinarily opulent volume (approx. 12 laid out in such a beautiful way that everything miraculously inches by 17 and weighing more than seven pounds makes perfect sense. Most of the pieces are in two or three T- apologies for the old school measurements!) is a parts (a fourth part – called “Tenor bassus” – is added to marvel to behold. The publisher has had to use glossy paper the Credo of Bedingham’s Mass Dueil angoisseux in only in order to give the best possible colour reproductions of one of the sources). -

Nirgends klingen diese Wor- te so sehnsuchtsvoll, ja fast wehmütig, wie in Vivaldis Gloria RV 588. Und sind wir diesem Frieden auf Erden heute näher als im Venedig des 18. Jahrhunderts? Oder auch nur näher als vor zweitausend Jahren in Palästina? Allzu leicht vergessen wir auf unserer Insel der Glückseligen, dass es überall in der Welt brennt, dass der Mensch sich nach wie vor immer wieder von seiner grausamsten Seite zeigt und seine Mitmen- schen in unvorstellbares Elend stösst. -

The genus just newly created is celebrated everywhere. Not quite. For in Romee were allowed operas for decades heard exclusively in a closed society. The Papal State, who wanted to seem virtuous achieved at least outwardly like all these stories about love, lust, passions and all the ancient heroes and gods was morally rather questionable. -
Il Pomo D'oro Is an Orchestra Founded in the Year 2012 with a Special
il pomo d’oro is an orchestra founded in the year 2012 with a special focus on opera, but equally committed to instrumental performance in various formations. The musicians united in this group are among the best to be found worldwide for authentic and vivid interpretation on period instruments. Together with the young chief conductor Maxim Emelyanychev they form an ensemble of outstanding quality, combining stylistic knowledge, the highest technical skills, and artistic enthusiasm. The collaboration with violinist and conductor Riccardo Minasi led to an award winning first recording (Vivaldi, Per l’Imperatore). The second recording, Vivaldi’s violin concerts Per Pisendel with Dmitry Sinkovsky as soloist and conductor, received a Diapason d’Or. In 2012, il pomo d’oro also recorded 3 solo CDs with three countertenors – Max Emanuel Cencic (Venezia), Xavier Sabata (Bad Guys) and Franco Fagioli (Arias for Caffarelli), under Riccardo Minasi’s direction. The album Arias for Caffarelli was awarded the Choc de l’annee 2013 by the French magazine ‘Classica’. A further contribution to the Naive-Vivaldi-Edition was a recording of the Concerti per due violini, played and directed by Riccardo Minasi and Dmitry Sinkovsky, released in October 2013. In conjunction with a book project about the Venetian Gondola by American writer Donna Leon, il pomo d’oro recorded a collection of ancient Venetian Barcarole, sung by Vincenzo Capezzuto. A recital of various Agrippina Arias – most of them world premieres on CD – with the Swedish mezzosoprano Ann Hallenberg, directed by Riccardo Minasi, was released in 2015. Agrippina won the International Classic Music Award and the International Opera Award.
