  • Verdi's Rigoletto
    Verdi’s Rigoletto - A discographical conspectus by Ralph Moore It is hard if not impossible, to make a representative survey of recordings of Rigoletto, given that there are 200 in the catalogue; I can only compromise by compiling a somewhat arbitrary list comprising of a selection of the best-known and those which appeal to me. For a start, there are thirty or so studio recordings in Italian; I begin with one made in 1927 and 1930, as those made earlier than that are really only for the specialist. I then consider eighteen of the studio versions made since that one. I have not reviewed minor recordings or those which in my estimation do not reach the requisite standard; I freely admit that I cannot countenance those by Sinopoli in 1984, Chailly in 1988, Rahbari in 1991 or Rizzi in 1993 for a combination of reasons, including an aversion to certain singers – for example Gruberova’s shrill squeak of a soprano and what I hear as the bleat in Bruson’s baritone and the forced wobble in Nucci’s – and the existence of a better, earlier version by the same artists (as with the Rudel recording with Milnes, Kraus and Sills caught too late) or lacklustre singing in general from artists of insufficient calibre (Rahbari and Rizzi). Nor can I endorse Dmitri Hvorostovsky’s final recording; whether it was as a result of his sad, terminal illness or the vocal decline which had already set in I cannot say, but it does the memory of him in his prime no favours and he is in any case indifferently partnered.

  • Here Is a PDF File of the First 14 Pp. from a Chapter
    The Metropolitan Opera Archives The Metropolitan 158 lauri-volpi vs. the verismo style FC: Old-style heroic tenors such as Giacomo Lauri-Volpi sang the center and bottom notes lightly and sweetly but let loose on top. Lauri-Volpi’s repertory was vast, but the operas that suited him best were Tell, Puritani, Poliuto, Turandot,a Luisa Miller and Ugonotti, heroic works where he could neglect the center notes and seek to display brilliance and high notes and where he could emphasize classical style and purity of tone over passion. In contrast verismo singers favor the center notes and sing with portamento and heart. In verismo the theatrical effect of the phrase is more important than purity of tone. Words sometimes are more important than music, and you have to use the center notes to interpret them. SZ: What are the characteristics of the verismo tenor? FC: The verismo tenor has a round, strong middle voice and push- es high notes with his guts. Caruso gave us this manner of singing. As a verismo tenor you do try to sing beautifully, lightly and sweet- ly, at moments. You must have this chiaroscuro, this contrast. But a In common with Iris Adami Corradetti, Gina Cigna, Magda Olivero, Rosa Raisa and Eva Turner Corelli always pronounced the name “Turando.” Opposite: Giacomo Lauri-Volpi as il Duca, Met, 1923. He called Rigoletto “the opera that made my fortune.” He made his Scala and Met debuts in it and sang it more than 300 times. 159 you can’t sing some notes in falsettoneb—no more of that!—you’ve got to sing with your real voice even when you sing softly.

  • Toscanini V – La Scala, New York and Bayreuth (1920-1930)
    Toscanini V – La Scala, New York and Bayreuth (1920-1930) After leaving the Metropolitan, Toscanini seemed oddly reluctant to find somewhere to work other than in leading Italian military bands to support the war effort. In his first biography of the conductor, Toscanini, Harvey Sachs finds this puzzling “because of his enthusiasm for the most senseless and awful of all senseless and awful wars,”1 but then explains it pretty well by explaining the conductor’s “rabid” nationalism in the following paragraph. Far more puzzling was his almost complete withdrawal from professional conducting, with sole exception of a “special” opera season at the Teatro Dal Verme in 1918 which included a memorial performance of Mefistofele after Arrigo Boito’s death. (He also conducted a Beethoven Ninth in 1919.) This was the performance in which he worked for the first and last time with tenor Beniamino Gigli. In rehearsals, Gigli apparently behaved himself and sang the music as written, but at the performance he reverted to his normal style of sobs, glots and chuckles that broke up the line of music. Toscanini called him a pig and never worked with him again. After the war, his nationalist tendencies clouded his judgment temporarily and led him to support Benito Mussolini’s Fascist Party, on which he ran as a senator and lost. One wonders what would have happened had he won: would he really have forfeited his musical career at age 52 to become a full-time politician? Nationalist or not, politics really weren’t in his blood; by his own admission, he knew little about them; and the fact that he turned against Mussolini a year before the Fascist dictator commandeered the government entirely for himself would certainly have been a major problem.

La Rosa Parodi. Just about 1-2. $35.00. BERNARDO OLSHANSKY [b]. Russia, 1885-Union City, NJ, 25 Jan. 1933. Olshansky left Russia around 1905 as a result of political persecution. He studied in New York City with Giacomo Ginsberg (name changed later to Giacomo Bourg) and subsequently with Louis Simions (?) and made his debut in Monza (Italy) in 1910 as Rigoletto. He appears to subsequently having sung in Torino, 1911, although there is some confusion here. A result of a recital in Boston upon his return (likely in 1910 but possibly 1911) was his being engaged by the Boston Opera for the 1911 season and being sent by a wealthy patroness to Paris for preliminary studies with André Caplet, the noted composer and a conductor with the Boston Opera. Olshansky appeared in Boston in about a dozen roles for two seasons (these including the Jailer in Tosca, Yakuside in Madama Butterfly and Valentin in Faust) and performed in a similar capacity with the Montreal Opera around the same time. After that experience, he seems to have left opera in favor of the recital stage and was heard in New York as a concert singer on a fairly regular basis, mainly at Aeolian and Town Halls. He also appeared successfully in various concert venues throughout the country. The last traced such program was at Town Hall, March 25, 1932.

  • Seth Riggs—His CCM Legacy
    POPULAR SONG AND MUSIC THEATER Robert Edwin, Associate Editor Seth Riggs—His CCM Legacy Darren Wicks [Associate Editor’s note: The following article originally appeared as a book chapter in So You Want to Sing CCM (Rowman & Littlefield 2018), edited by Matthew Hoch. It has been adapted for this column. Seth Riggs’s deep concern for healthy voice technique makes it a very appropriate piece for this Journal of Singing issue acknowledging and celebrating World Voice Day and its 2019 theme, “Be Kind With Your Voice.”] peech Level Singing™ (SLS) is an approach to singing developed by Los Angeles teacher, Seth Riggs. Few teachers can claim to have Darren Wicks Riggs’s track record and few pedagogies have been applied like SLS. Riggs’s students have achieved success at the highest levels of the Sindustry and across multiple musical genres. In his more than 60 years of teaching, Riggs has taught four winners of the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions (New York), some 120 Grammy Award winners, and countless Broadway performers.1 His television and movie credits include roles as voice consultant for Madonna (Dick Tracy, 1990), Val Kilmer (The Doors, 1991), Whoopi Goldberg (Sister Act, 1992), Michael Jackson (This Is It, 2009), and voice coaching for the American Idol television series. Riggs continues to operate a busy home studio in Hollywood, working with per- formers, actors, serious amateurs, producers, and teachers. In addition, he maintains an international profile as a voice consultant, teacher educator, and workshop presenter. Riggs’s contribution to CCM singing and pedagogy has been immense, and any publication on current CCM practice would be incomplete without considering his legacy.
