    Dresdner Philharmonie The Dresden Philharmonic can look back on 150 years of history as the orchestra of Saxony’s capital Dresden. When the so-called “Gewerbehaussaal” opened on 29 November 1870, the citizens of the city were given the opportunity to organise major orchestra concerts. Philharmonic concerts were held regularly starting in 1885; the orchestra adopted its present name in 1923. In its first decades, composers such as Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Dvořák and Strauss conducted the Dresdner Philharmonie with their own works. The first desks were presided over by outstanding concertmasters such as Stefan Frenkel, Simon Goldberg and the cellists Stefan Auber and Enrico Mainardi. From 1934, Carl Schuricht and Paul van Kempen led the orchestra; van Kempen in particular guided the Dresden Philharmonic to top achievements. All of Bruckner’s symphonies were first performed in their original versions, which earned the orchestra the reputation of a “Bruckner orchestra” and brought renowned guest conductors such as Hermann Abendroth, Eduard van Beinum, Fritz Busch, Eugen Jochum, Joseph Keilbert, Erich Kleiber, Hans Knappertsbusch and Franz Konwitschny to the rostrum. After 1945 and into the 1990s, Heinz Bongartz, Horst Förster, Kurt Masur (from 1994 also honorary conductor), Günther Herbig, Herbert Kegel, Jörg-Peter Weigle and Michel Plasson were the principal conductors. In recent years, conductors such as Marek Janowski, Rafael Frühbeck de Burgos and Michael Sanderling have shaped the orchestra. As of season 2019/2020, Marek Janowski has returned to the Dresden Philharmonic as principal conductor and artistic director. Its home is the highly modern concert hall inaugurated in April 2017 in the Kulturpalast building in the heart of the historic old town.

Following her sensational 2018 role debut as Elsa von Brabant in a new production of Lohengrin conducted by Andris Nelsons at the Royal Opera House, Davis has been propelled to international attention, winning praise for her gleaming, silvery tone, and dramatic characterisation of remarkable immediacy. (Sacramento, California) American Mezzo-soprano Irene Roberts continues to enjoy international acclaim as a singer of exceptional versatility and vocal suppleness. Following her “stunning and dramatically compelling” (SF Classical Voice) performances as Carmen at the San Francisco Opera in June, Roberts begins the 2016/2017 season in San Francisco as Bao Chai in the world premiere of Bright Sheng’s Dream of the Red Chamber. Currently in her second season with the Deutsche Oper Berlin, her upcoming assignments include four role debuts, beginning in November with her debut as Urbain in David Alden’s new production of Les Huguenots led by Michele Mariotti. She performs in her first Ring cycle in 2017 singing Waltraute in Die Walküre and the Second Norn in Götterdämmerung under the baton of Music Director Donald Runnicles, who also conducts her role debut as Hänsel in Hänsel und Gretel. Additional roles for Roberts this season include Rosina in Il barbiere di Siviglia, Fenena in Nabucco, Siebel in Faust, and the title role of Carmen at Deutsche Oper Berlin.

  • Spanish Local Color in Bizet's Carmen.Pdf
    !@14 QW Spanish Local Color in Bizet’s Carmen unexplored borrowings and transformations Ralph P. Locke Bizet’s greatest opera had a rough start in life. True, it was written and composed to meet many of the dramatic and musical expectations of opéra comique. It offered charming and colorful secondary characters that helped “place” the work in its cho- sen locale (such as the Spanish innkeeper Lillas Pastia and Carmen’s various Gypsy sidekicks, female and male), simple strophic forms in many musical numbers, and extensive spoken dialogue between the musical numbers.1 Despite all of this, the work I am grateful for many insightful suggestions from Philip Gossett and Roger Parker and from early readers of this paper—notably Steven Huebner, David Rosen, Lesley A. Wright, and Hervé Lacombe. I also benefi ted from the suggestions of three specialists in the music of Spain: Michael Christoforidis, Suzanne Rhodes Draayer (who kindly provided a photocopy of the sheet-music cover featuring Zélia Trebelli), and—for generously sharing his trove of Garciana, including photocopies of the autograph vocal and instrumental parts for “Cuerpo bueno” that survive in Madrid—James Radomski. The Bibliothèque nationale de France kindly provided microfi lms of their two manu- scripts of “Cuerpo bueno” (formerly in the library of the Paris Conservatoire). Certain points in the present paper were fi rst aired briefl y in one section of a wider-ranging essay, “Nineteenth-Century Music: Quantity, Quality, Qualities,” Nineteenth-Century Music Review 1 (2004): 3–41, at 30–37. In that essay I erroneously referred in passing to Bizet’s piano-vocal score as having been published by Heugel; the publisher was, of course, Choudens.

  • De L'opéra À La Chanson
    1 NATALIE DESSAY De l’opéra à la chanson 1 « Si Harpo Marx était né sous l’étoile d’une soprano colorature, il aurait été Natalie Dessay. Car aucune Fille dans La Fille du Régiment n’a été aussi comique. Par contre, il est difficile d’imaginer, 2 depuis Maria Callas, une soprano plus dramatique en Lucia ou plus hypnotique dans La Sonnambula. Tragédienne ou Comédienne, Natalie a régné en souveraine dans notre théâtre. » Peter Gelb Directeur du Metropolitan Opera - New York “If Harpo Marx had been born a coloratura soprano, he would have been Natalie Dessay. As the Daughter in The Daughter of the Regiment, no soprano has ever been physically funnier. But for that matter, it is hard to imagine any soprano since Callas to be more dramatic in Lucia or more hypnotic in La Sonnambula. When it comes to both tragedy and comedy, Natalie has reigned supreme on our stage.” Peter Gelb General Manager of the Metropolitan Opera House-New York City 2 LÉO DELIBES 1836-1891 VINCENZO BELLINI 1801-1835 1 Les Filles de Cadix, chanson espagnole. 4.42 7 La Sonnambula : Ah! non credea mirarti...
