En Cuerpo Y Alma enero de 2013 Bilbao 33 En cuerpo y alma Nina Stemme y Violeta Urmana: dos divas en Bilbao Patricia Sojo DOS de las sopranos más recla- madas en las óperas y festivales de todo el mundo cantarán en nuestra ciudad con un mes de di- ferencia. Si los socios de la Filar- mónica tuvieron el inmenso privi- legio de escuchar a la cantante sueca Nina Stemme, que el pasa- do 13 de diciembre actuaba por primera vez en Bilbao, ABAO contará con Violeta Urmana para interpretar el papel principal de Tosca en su próxima producción que se representará del 19 al 28 de enero en el Euskalduna. Bien co- nocida por el público bilbaino, es- ta cantante lituana ofreció un reci- tal en la Sociedad Filarmónica en 2005 y en febrero de 2011 cantó Macbeth en la temporada de ABAO. Curiosamente ambas comenza- ron sus carreras musicales como mezzos hasta que encontraron su auténtica tesitura: Nina Stemme es una soprano dramática consi- derada por la prestigiosa revista americana Opera News “la mejor cantante wagneriana de nuestra era” y Violeta Urmana es una so- prano falcón (voz intermedia en- tre soprano dramática y mezzoso- prano lírica) galardonada en 2002 con el prestigioso Royal Philhar- monic Society Award de Londres y el Österreichische Kammersän- gerin vienés en 2009.

  • My Fifty Years with Wagner
    MY FIFTY YEARS WITH RICHARD WAGNER I don't for a moment profess to be an expert on the subject of the German composer Wilhelm Richard Wagner and have not made detailed comments on performances, leaving opinions to those far more enlightened than I. However having listened to Wagnerian works on radio and record from the late 1960s, and after a chance experience in 1973, I have been fascinated by the world and works of Wagner ever since. I have been fortunate to enjoy three separate cycles of Der Ring des Nibelungen, in Bayreuth 2008, San Francisco in 2011 and Melbourne in 2013 and will see a fourth, being the world's first fully digitally staged Ring cycle in Brisbane in 2020 under the auspices of Opera Australia. I also completed three years of the degree course in Architecture at the University of Quensland from 1962 and have always been interested in the monumental buildings of Europe, old and new, including the opera houses I have visited for performance of Wagner's works. It all started in earnest on September 29, 1973 when I was 28 yrs old, when, with friend and music mentor Harold King of ABC radio fame, together we attended the inaugural orchestral concert given at the Sydney Opera House, in which the legendary Swedish soprano Birgit Nilsson opened the world renowned building singing an all Wagner programme including the Immolation scene from Götterdämmerung, accompanied by the Sydney Symphony Orchestra conducted by a young Charles Mackerras. This event fully opened my eyes to the Ring Cycle - and I have managed to keep the historic souvenir programme.

Chorus and Orchestra of Teatro Real. PRESENTATION In Aida, the grandiose and the intimate converge as in few other operas: the bloody confrontation between Ethiopians and Egyptians is juxtaposed by the love of Radamès, Captain of the Egyptian Guard, for Aida, a slave of the Ethiopians. Their love is more powerful than the hatred between the two peoples, their social differences and incompatible perspectives. This love was as solid as the wall which blocked its consummation. Verdi chose this story after rejecting several alternatives with comical or thematic plots to which he could have composed a grand opera.
