PPO2 Schneider 2.Pages
Performing Premodernity Online – Volume 2 (January 2015) On Acting in Late Eighteenth- Century Opera Buffa MAGNUS TESSING SCHNEIDER In 1856 the German poet and music critic Johann Peter Lyser wrote about the beginning of the supper scene in the second finale of Don Giovanni, written for the comedians Luigi Bassi and Felice Ponziani: "Unfortunately, it is not performed in Mozart's spirit nowadays, for the Don Giovannis and Leporellos of today are no Bassis and Lollis [recte: Ponzianis]. These played the scene differently in each performance, sustaining an uninterrupted crossfire of improvised jokes, droll ideas and lazzi, so that the audience was thrown into the same state of mirth in which it was Mozart's intention that master and servant should appear to be on the stage. These were the skills of the opera buffa singers of old; the modern Italian singers know as little how to do it as the Germans ever did."1 Though written more than 150 years ago, this longing for the musical and theatrical immediacy that reigned in the opera houses of the late eighteenth century may still resonate with adherents of the Historically Informed Performance (HIP) movement. At least since Georg Fuchs coined the motto "rethéâtraliser le théâtre" in 19092 the theatrical practices of the past has, indeed, been an important source of inspiration for theatrical reformers, and the commedia dell'arte, with its reliance on virtuoso improvisation rather than on written text, has appealed to many directors. Yet as the Lyser quotation suggests, the idealization of a lost tradition as the positive counter- image of the restrictions of the modern stage is not a new phenomenon. -
Cimarosa Domenico
CIMAROSA DOMENICO Compositore italiano (Aversa, 17 XII 1749 - Venezia, 11 I 1801) Gioventù e formazione musicale 1 Nacque ad Aversa il 17 dicembre del 1749, città che aveva dato i natali anche a Nicolò Jommelli, un altro grande editore della scuola napoletana. Alla tenera età di quattro anni dovette lasciare la sua città natale per recarsi con la famiglia a Napoli. Andarono a vivere presso la chiesa di San Severo de' Padri Conventuali. Era figlio di Gennaro Cimarosa, un muratore occupato nella costruzione del Palazzo di Capodimonte, il quale durante la costruzione s'infortunò a morte a causa di una caduta. Sua madre invece era occupata come lavandaia nel monastero vicino alla chiesa. Fu proprio in questo ambiente che il giovane Domenico ricevette i primi rudimenti musicali dall'organista del monastero padre Polcano. Dimostrò subito di avere molte doti per la musica tant'è che nel 1761 fu ammesso al Conservatorio di Santa Maria di Loreto, dove rimase undici anni. I suoi insegnanti furono Gennaro Manna (all'epoca ritenuto il miglior insegnante dopo Alessandro Scarlatti), Antonio Sacchini (fino al 1766) e Fedele Fenaroli (il quale diede a Cimarosa lezioni di contrappunto). In pochi anni divenne un abile violinista, clavicembalistica ed organista, nonché un talentuoso cantante: i suoi compagni lo stimavano e lo ascoltavano con delizia mentre interpretava pezzi d'opera con bella voce, con grazia e con soavità; tra questi si ricordano Nicola Antonio Zingarelli e Giuseppe Giordani. Egli era caratterialmente mite ed abile, oltre che studioso e diligente. Dopo aver lasciato il conservatorio si perfezionò nel canto con il castrato Giuseppe Aprile e nella composizione con Nicolò Piccinni. -
Opera Olimpiade
OPERA OLIMPIADE Pietro Metastasio’s L’Olimpiade, presented in concert with music penned by sixteen of the Olympian composers of the 18th century VENICE BAROQUE ORCHESTRA Andrea Marcon, conductor Romina Basso Megacle Franziska Gottwald Licida Karina Gauvin Argene Ruth Rosique Aristea Carlo Allemano Clistene Nicholas Spanos Aminta Semi-staged by Nicolas Musin SUMMARY Although the Olympic games are indelibly linked with Greece, Italy was progenitor of the Olympic operas, spawning a musical legacy that continues to resound in opera houses and concert halls today. Soon after 1733, when the great Roman poet Pietro Metastasio witnessed the premiere of his libretto L’Olimpiade in Vienna, a procession of more than 50 composers began to set to music this tale of friendship, loyalty and passion. In the course of the 18th century, theaters across Europe commissioned operas from the Olympian composers of the day, and performances were acclaimed in the royal courts and public opera houses from Rome to Moscow, from Prague to London. Pieto Metastasio In counterpoint to the 2012 Olympic games, Opera Olimpiade has been created to explore and celebrate the diversity of musical expression inspired by this story of the ancient games. Research in Europe and the United States yielded L’Olimpiade manuscripts by many composers, providing the opportunity to extract the finest arias and present Metastasio’s drama through an array of great musical minds of the century. Andrea Marcon will conduct the Venice Baroque Orchestra and a cast of six virtuosi singers—dare we say of Olympic quality—in concert performances of the complete libretto, a succession of 25 spectacular arias and choruses set to music by 16 Title page of David Perez’s L’Olimpiade, premiered in Lisbon in 1753 composers: Caldara, Vivaldi, Pergolesi, Leo, Galuppi, Perez, Hasse, Traetta, Jommelli, Piccinni, Gassmann, Mysliveek, Sarti, Cherubini, Cimarosa, and Paisiello. -

Cimarosa Domenico
CIMAROSA DOMENICO Compositore italiano (Aversa 17 XII 1749 - Venezia 11 I 1801) RRIITTRRAATTTTOO DDEELL CCOOMMPPOOSSIITTOORREE 327 Il padre era muratore e la madre lavandaia. Ancora bambino, la famiglia si trasferì a Napoli in cerca di lavoro, e il padre dopo poco tempo morì in seguito ad un infortunio occorsogli durante la costruzione del Palazzo Reale di Campodimonte. Ridotta in povertà, la madre mandò il figlio Domenico a vivere coi padri conventuali al Pendino dove ricevette le sue prime lezioni di musica. Dimostrando una particolare inclinazione per la musica, venne inviato nel 1761 al conservatorio di Santa Maria Loreto, con l'obbligo di rimanervi dieci anni. Ciò escluderebbe che Cimarosa abbia studiato con G. Manno e A. Sacchini in quanto questi maestri lasciarono il conservatorio rispettivamente nel 1761 e nel 1762 proprio, cioè, quando egli vi entrò. Si sa che i suoi principali insegnanti furono P. Gallo, F. Fenaroli e S. Carcajus, e che si perfezionò in violino, in clavicembalo, in organo e soprattutto in canto. Cimarosa iniziò a comporre mentre era ancora studente e i suoi primi saggi furono alcuni pezzi religiosi, fra i quali vanno ricordati due mottetti a quattro voci con strumenti, che portano la data 1765, attualmente conservati nella Biblioteca del conservatorio di Napoli. Uscito dal conservatorio all'età di 22 anni, ebbe subito la fortuna di incontrare una protettrice nella persona della signora C. Pallante, una nota cantante trasferitasi a Roma. Probabilmente, grazie all’influenza di C. Pallante, Cimarosa ricevette la commissione per due lavori per il carnevale del 1772 al teatro dei Fiorentini. Tali opere, Le stravaganze del conte e la farsa Le magie di Merlina e Zoroastro, non furono bene accolte dal pubblico, e secondo F. -
