Featured last year on BBC 2’s series Maestro at the Opera, the course offers an immersion in preparing singers for operatic performance, with an incomparable faculty of teachers including Sir Richard Bonynge, Pamela Bullock, Jonathan Papp and Audrey Hyland. This year the President of the Nando and Elsa Peretti Foundations, Ms Elsa Peretti (the pre-eminent designer for Tiffany), has made it possible for the course to be run in Elsa’s elective city of Barcelona, in collaboration with the Theatre Akademia, where WKHUpSpWLWHXU¶V¿QDOFRQFHUWZLOOWDNHSODFHRQ$SULODW Six outstanding young pianists, from $XVWUDOLD)UDQFH*UHHFH6SDLQDQGWKH8., will gather in Barcelona in April with six talented singers, all alumni of the Georg Solti Accademia’s Bel Canto course, to focus on this vital, but often hidden, craft. A répétiteur is the singer’s key ally in achieving their performance, and essential to any opera production. They are the ultimate multi-taskers of the opera world, and must be constantly alert to vocal performance, musicality, language, style and nuance, while bringing the whole orchestral score alive at the piano. No wonder so many of them go on to become great opera conductors – Georg Solti, Riccardo Muti, Valery Gergiev and Sir Antonio Pappano to name but four.

    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.

Oskar Bohme was a trumpet player and composer who began his career in Germany during the late 1800’s. After playing in small orchestras around Germany he moved to St. Petersburg to become a cornetist for the Mariinsky Theatre Orchestra. Bohme composed and published is Trumpet Concerto in E Minor in 1899 while living in St. Petersburg. History caught up with Oskar Bohme in 1934 when he was exiled to Orenburg during Stalin’s Great Terror. It is known that Bohme taught at a music school in the Ural Mountain region for a time, however, the exact time and circumstances of Bohme’s death are unknown. Bohme’s Concerto in F Minor is distinguished because it is the only known concerto written for trumpet during the Romantic period. The concerto was originally written in the key of E minor and played on an A trumpet.

    AN ANALYSIS OF “SEVEN LAST WORDS FROM THE CROSS” (1993) BY JAMES MACMILLAN BY HERNHO PARK DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in Music with a concentration in Choral Music in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2015 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Barrington Coleman, Chair Professor Carlos Carrillo, Director of Research Professor Michael Silvers Professor Fred Stoltzfus ABSTRACT James MacMillan is one of the most well-known and successful living composers as well as an internationally active conductor. His musical language is influenced by his Scottish heritage, the Catholic faith, and traditional Celtic folk music, blended with Scandinavian and European composers including Olivier Messiaen (1908-1992), Alfred Schnittke (1943-1998), and Igor Stravinsky (1882-1971). His cantata for choir and strings Seven Last Words from the Cross, was commissioned by BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) television, composed in 1993, and premiered in 1994 by Cappella Nova and the BT (British Telecom) Scottish Ensemble. While this piece is widely admired as one of his best achievements by choral conductors and choirs, it is rarely performed, perhaps due to its high level of difficulty for both the string players and singers. The purpose of this dissertation is to present an analysis of the Seven Last Words from the Cross by James MacMillan aimed to benefit choral conductors rather than audiences. Very little has been written about MacMillan's choral works. My hope is to establish a foundation on which future scholars may expand and explore other choral works by MacMillan.

In the Refectory there is one of the most famous paintings of Leonardo da Vinci: the “Last Supper”. The works of the fresco started in 1495 and finished in 1498. Monumental Cemetery Carlo Maciachini built the Monumental Cemetery between 1863 and 1866 at Porta Volta. Villa Reale (Royal Villa) One of the most important Milanese neo- classical buildings, the Royal Villa, was built in 1790 by Leopoldo Pollak. It has been the residence of Napolen and Josephine and also of Eugene Beauharnais and the General Radetzky. Pilasters and columns decorate all the building that is surrounded by an English- style garden. The insides are finely decorated with candelabras, sculptures, frescoes and other decorations typical of Lombard neo- classicism.

However, the name of Lithuania was directly or indirectly reflected in the works of foreign composers. The aim of the article is to identify the connections of the 19th and 20th centuries foreign composers and Lithuania, and the way those connections were reflected in their music. This article is addressed to foreign readers who are willing to learn about the image of Lithuania in the context of the European musical culture. Keywords: music, Lithuania, Italy, Poland, Russia, Lithuania Minor, composer, song, opera. Anotacija Daugelį metų (1795–1918) Lietuva neegzistavo kaip suvereni Europos valstybė. Tai buvo ilgai trukusių karų ir okupacijų padarinys. Tačiau Lietuva tiesiogiai ar netiesiogiai darė įtaką užsienio šalių kompozitoriams. Šio straipsnio tikslas – nustatyti ryšius, siejusius XIX– XX a. ne lietuvių kilmės kompozitorius su Lietuva, ir kaip tie ryšiai atsispindėjo jų muzikoje.
