He has worked for a number of Richard specialist labels, including Pearl, Biddulph, Romophone and Music & Arts. Three of his transfers have been nominated for Gramophone Awards. A pianist by training, his passions are music, history and working on projects. WAGNER He has found a way to combine all three in the transfer of historical recordings. (1813-1883) Obert-Thorn describes himself as a ‘moderate interventionist’ rather than a ‘purist’ or ‘re-processor,’ unlike those who apply significant additions and make major changes to the acoustical qualities of old recordings. His philosophy is that a good transfer should not call attention to itself, but rather allow the performances to be heard Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg with the greatest clarity. There is no over-reverberant ‘cathedral sound’ in an Obert-Thorn restoration, nor is there the tinny bass and Comic Opera in Three Acts piercing mid-range of many ‘authorised’ commercial issues.

  • Parsifal and Canada: a Documentary Study
    Parsifal and Canada: A Documentary Study The Canadian Opera Company is preparing to stage Parsifal in Toronto for the first time in 115 years; seven performances are planned for the Four Seasons Centre for the Performing Arts from September 25 to October 18, 2020. Restrictions on public gatherings imposed as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic have placed the production in jeopardy. Wagnerians have so far suffered the cancellation of the COC’s Flying Dutchman, Chicago Lyric Opera’s Ring cycle and the entire Bayreuth Festival for 2020. It will be a hard blow if the COC Parsifal follows in the footsteps of a projected performance of Parsifal in Montreal over 100 years ago. Quinlan Opera Company from England, which mounted a series of 20 operas in Montreal in the spring of 1914 (including a complete Ring cycle), announced plans to return in the fall of 1914 for another feast of opera, including Parsifal. But World War One intervened, the Parsifal production was cancelled, and the Quinlan company went out of business. Let us hope that history does not repeat itself.1 While we await news of whether the COC production will be mounted, it is an opportune time to reflect on Parsifal and its various resonances in Canadian music history. This article will consider three aspects of Parsifal and Canada: 1) a performance history, including both excerpts and complete presentations; 2) remarks on some Canadian singers who have sung Parsifal roles; and 3) Canadian scholarship on Parsifal. NB: The indication [DS] refers the reader to sources that are reproduced in the documentation portfolio that accompanies this article.

  • ARSC Journal
    A Discography of the Choral Symphony by J. F. Weber In previous issues of this Journal (XV:2-3; XVI:l-2), an effort was made to compile parts of a composer discography in depth rather than breadth. This one started in a similar vein with the realization that SO CDs of the Beethoven Ninth Symphony had been released (the total is now over 701). This should have been no surprise, for writers have stated that the playing time of the CD was designed to accommodate this work. After eighteen months' effort, a reasonably complete discography of the work has emerged. The wonder is that it took so long to collect a body of information (especially the full names of the vocalists) that had already been published in various places at various times. The Japanese discographers had made a good start, and some of their data would have been difficult to find otherwise, but quite a few corrections and additions have been made and some recording dates have been obtained that seem to have remained 1.Dlpublished so far. The first point to notice is that six versions of the Ninth didn't appear on the expected single CD. Bl:lhm (118) and Solti (96) exceeded the 75 minutes generally assumed (until recently) to be the maximum CD playing time, but Walter (37), Kegel (126), Mehta (127), and Thomas (130) were not so burdened and have been reissued on single CDs since the first CD release. On the other hand, the rather short Leibowitz (76), Toscanini (11), and Busch (25) versions have recently been issued with fillers.

  • Einem Gottfried
    EINEM VON GOTTFRIED Compositore austriaco (Berna 24 I 1918 - Waldviertel 12 VII 1966) Dapprima autodidatta, Gottfried von Einem studiò con Boris Blacher e sviluppò in seguito un equilibrato linguaggio musicale. Nel 1938 iniziò la sua carriera come istruttore di canto all'Opera di Berlino e come assistente al Festival di Bayreuth. Durante il nazionalsocialismo venne più volte arrestato. Dopo la guerra Einem rivestì varie funzioni sia al Festival di Salisburgo, sia alle Festwochen di Vienna. Dal 1963 al 1972 insegnò alla Musikhochschule di Vienna, dal 1964 fu membro della Akademie der Kunste di Berlino e dal 1965 al 1970 presidente dell'Akademie fur Musik austriaca. 1 DANTONS TOD Di Gottfried von Einem (1918-1996) libretto proprio e di Boris Blacher, dal dramma di Georg Büchner (La morte di Danton) Opera in due atti e sei quadri Prima: Salisburgo, Felsenreitschule, 6 agosto 1947 Personaggi: Georges Danton (Bar); Julie, sua moglie (Ms); Camille Desmoulins e Jean Hérault de Séchelles, deputati (T); Lucille, moglie di Camille (S); Maximilien Robespierre (T); Saint-Just (B); Simon, suggeritore (B); due becchini (T); una dama (S); una popolana (A); uomini e donne del popolo In Dantons Tod non si saluta solo un esordio teatrale particolarmente felice, tanto da decretare all’autore fama subitanea, ma anche l’inizio della consuetudine salisburghese (mai più abbandonata) di inserire ogni anno nel Festival un’opera contemporanea in ‘prima’ assoluta. Il soggetto di Büchner venne scelto sull’onda emotiva suscitata dal fallito attentato a Hitler nel 1944; ad approntare la versione ridotta fu Boris Blacher, maestro di Einem e futuro dedicatario dell’opera.

  • Avra Xepapadakou
    Avra Xepapadakou University of Crete Maria Antonietta: Pavlos Carrer’s last Italian opera and second European attempt1 In the summer of 1873, Pavlos Carrer agrees with his friend, poet Conte Giorgio D. Roma,2 to work together on the libretto of a new opera based on the “episode of the French Revolution concerning Marie Antoinette”.3 The choice of the subject raises questions, since it forms the only exception among the five Greek national operas that Pavlos Carrer composes from 1868 until the end of his life.4 The composer does not state, his sources, therefore we do not know whether he and Roma studied the history of the French Revolution and, consequently, drew the inspiration for their libretto from it or worked on a literary text. Further below, we will examine that both may be the case. The composer describes vividly the carefree, summer days when both of them, living in Zante, worked together for the creation of the opera’s libretto, while talking and laughing until midnight. Roma, as Carrer explains, was so enthusiastic with the new opera that his “pen was running too fast”. Many times the composer was obliged to make cuts at the “extremely and beyond any rule lengthy lyrics”, driving the librettist to express his strong opposition: 1 An earlier version of this paper was presented at the Conference The Ionian Opera and Musical Theatre until 1953, University of Athens-Dept. of Theatre Studies, Athens State Orchestra & Athens Concert Hall, 23-24 April 2010 and was published in its Proceedings, pages 134-144. 2 More about Carrer’s librettist in De Viasis, Spyridon.

  • About the Exhibition Tenorissimo! Plácido Domingo in Vienna
    Tenorissimo! Plácido Domingo in Vienna May 17th, 2017 - January 8th, 2018 Lobkowitzplatz 2, 1010 Wien [email protected] T +43 1 525 24 5315 About the exhibition An unmistakable dark timbre, highly dramatic expressiveness, an impressive, vast repertoire – all this enraptures the fans of the Spanish crowd-pleaser with waves of enthusiasm. The Theatermuseum celebrates Plácido Domingo on the anniversary of his stage debut: He has been singing at the Vienna State Opera for 50 years. When the Tenor, then still considered as insider tip, made his debut at the State Opera in the title role of Verdi‘s Don Carlo, not only he took stage and cast in storm, but also the hearts of the Viennese audience – a true love relationship, unbroken till today. This performance contributed to an unparalleled career, taking him to the world‘s leading opera houses. Vienna has always been a very special “home port“ for the opera star. Here he performed 30 different roles in 300 shows and was awarded the title Austrian Kammersänger. The exhibition at the Theatermuseum documents the most important appearances of the “Tenorissimo“ in Vienna with original costumes and props, photographs and memorabilia, video and audio samples. The presentation portrays him also as baritone, the role fach on which he concentrated almost exclusively in the past 10 years, and refers to his activities as conductor, taking him regularly to the orchestra pit of the Vienna State Opera since the end of the 1970s. Without hesitation Plácido Domingo can be described as one of the most versatile, curious and longest serving representative of his musical genre.

At the center of this debate is the state of exception through which the sovereign legitimizes the juridical order by suspending preexisting civil laws. As recent theorists have argued, this has become the paradigm for modern nation states. Walter Benjamin contends, however, that a permanent state of exception has existed since the Baroque and has subjected its victims to an empty eschaton, an end without messianic redemption and devoid of all meaning. As long as the order of the sovereign is based on the dialectical relationship between law- making and law-preserving violence, this state will persevere and the messianic promise will not come to fruition. Thus Benjamin conceives of another category of violence he calls “pure violence,” which lies outside of the juridical order altogether. This type of violence also has the ability to reinstate history insofar as the inevitability of the state of exception has ceased any historical continuity.
