LA GAZZETTA Nicola Alaimo • Hasmik Torosyan • Vito Priante • Raffaella Lupinacci GIOACHINO ROSSINI LA GAZZETTA Nicola Alaimo • Hasmik Torosyan • Vito Priante • Raffaella Lupinacci Orchestra del Teatro Comunale di Bologna conducted by Enrique Mazzola staged by Marco Carniti GIOACHINO ROSSINI LA GAZZETTA Orchestra Orchestra e Coro del Teatro The event that takes place annually in Rossini’s birthplace, praised by Comunale di Bologna press and public for its witty stagings even of Rossini’s less well known Conductor Enrique Mazzola works, has landed on its feet: with La gazzetta, the Rossini Opera Stage Director Marco Carniti Festival has triumphed once again! A real “singfest” enthused Deutschlandfunk, while Online Musik Magazin Don Pomponio Storione Nicola Alaimo wrote of “frenetic applause” – the new production of Gioachino Lisetta Hasmik Torosyan Rossini’s seldom performed opera La gazzetta, ossia Il matrimonio per Filippo Vito Priante concorso (The Newspaper, or The Marriage Competition) at the 2015 Doralice Raffaella Lupinacci Rossini Opera Festival in Pesaro proved to be a musical triumph. The Anselmo Dario Shikhmiri Orchestra del Teatro Comunale di Bologna responded splendidly to Alberto Maxim Mironov the young Italian conductor Enrique Mazzola: as “one of the most gifted artists of his generation, he is not only a faithful interpreter of Madama La Rose Josè Maria Lo Monaco the score, he sends the orchestra of the Teatro di Bologna – and his Monsù Traversen Andrea Vincenzo Bonsignore audience too – into a veritable Rossini delirium” (Deutschlandfunk). Tommasino Ernesto Lama The musical comedy based on Carlo Goldoni’s play Il matrimonio per Produced by Metis Film concorso has lost none of its appeal almost two centuries after its 1816 Video Director Tiziano Mancini premiere in the Teatro dei Fiorentini.

Nicola in co-production with Alaimo embodies the nouveau-riche Don Pomponio Storione in every Rossini Opera Festival muscle: “he has confirmed his admirable dramatic qualities, with evidence of an unsuspected physical agility” (Huffington Post).

    FULL INFORMATIU DESEMBRE 2018-GENER 2019 · N 51 TRISTAN UND ISOLDE, TRIOMFADORA DELS PREMIS DE LA CRÍTICA La temporada passada, la 17-18, va ser la de Tristan und Isolde per a bona part del públic del Liceu, però també per a la crítica. Una opinió unànime que es va reflectir a la trobada anual dels professionals especialitzats, convocatòria que ha complert la 26a edició. Aquesta iniciativa d’Amics del Liceu vol, des de fa un quart de segle, difondre els punts de vista de les persones dedicades a analitzar l'expressió artística. Sempre és enriquidor i instructiu, i encara més en un moment en què l'oferta és abundant (en el cas de l'òpera, relativament abundant). En la temporada de referència destaca el Gran Teatre del Liceu, més que en anteriors edicions dels Premis de la Crítica, perquè les produccions i els artistes que hi participaven han merescut gairebé la totalitat dels premis. Reunits el 22 de novembre, els crítics han destacat Tristan und Isolde com a millor representació de la temporada; Josep Pons per la direcció musical i Àlex Ollé com a director d’escena de la producció d’aquesta òpera de Richard Wagner. Andrea Chénier és un altre títol que ha sumat, d’una banda, el premi a la millor cantant femenina per Sondra Radvanovsky que interpretava Maddalena, i Carlos Álvarez que encarnava Gérard, com a millor interpretació masculina. El Premi al millor cantant en recital o en concert va ser per a Ildar Abdrazakov per Attila, també al Gran Teatre del Liceu. Present a la Schubertíada de Vilabertran 2018, i a diversos escenaris lírics de Catalunya, el baríton Josep-Ramon Olivé va ser designat com a millor cantant revelació per la seva trajectòria durant la temporada.

Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, 2700 F Street Northwest, Washington, DC 20566 View map Admission Buy tickets More information Venue's website Credits A co-production of Houston Grand Opera Association, Welsh National A bright and whimsical production by Spanish director Joan Opera, Gran Teatre del Liceu, and Font and his performance troupe Els Comediants. Grand Théâtre de Genève. Rossini’s popular retelling of Charles Perrault’s beloved Cinderella story adds a few fabulous twists to the traditional fairy tale, a perfect springtime treat for the entire family. In this bright and whimsical production by Spanish director Joan Font and his performance troupe Els Comediants, a kindhearted girl named Angelina dreams of one day escaping her impoverished stepfather’s castle. When the prince announces he’ll choose his bride at a glamorous ball, she seizes the opportunity to escape the tyranny of her vain stepsisters and take control of her own destiny. Audiences of all ages will delight in this clever romantic comedy featuring bracelets instead of glass slippers, a philosophical tutor in place of a fairy godmother, and six adorable dancing rats that serve as a makeshift Greek chorus. Considered one of his finest vocal works, Rossini’s opera glows with captivating bel canto singing and ornate ensemble passages performed by a thrilling cast of young talents, including American opera singer and 2013 Richard Tucker Award winner Isabel Leonard alternating in the title role with celebrated Irish mezzo-soprano Tara Erraught in her U.S.

  • Vincenzo Bellini, Bianca E Gernando, Virtuosi Brunensis, Camerata Bach Choir Poznań, Direttore D’Orchestra Antonino Fogliani, 2 Cd Naxos 8.660417- 18, 2017
    IV, 2018 VINCENZO BELLINI, Bianca e Gernando, Virtuosi Brunensis, Camerata Bach Choir Poznań, direttore d’orchestra Antonino Fogliani, 2 CD Naxos 8.660417- 18, 2017. How wonderful to encounter this world- premiere Bellini recording, and that the performance is also quite fine (and sometimes astounding)! The recording is based on editorial work by Reto Müller and Florian Bauer and derives from two concert performances in July 2016 at the ‘Rossini in Wildbad’ Festival (in Germany’s Black Forest). The work proves to be strong indeed, thanks in part to the general excellence of the conductor, singers, and instrumentalists. The ‘G’ in the opera’s title, as Bellini connoisseurs will know, is not a typo. As for opera lovers, more generally, some of them may be aware of Bianca e Fernando. The latter is the opera’s second version (by Bellini himself), which had its premiere in 1829. Bianca e Gernando, the first version, had reached the stage in 1826. The hero’s name, originally intended to be Fernando, was changed to Gernando in order to avoid any possible unwanted comparisons with Fernando I, who had been King of the Two Sicilies until his death in 1825. For the second version, the more usual form of the name, with an ‘F’, was restored. Bianca e Gernando was Bellini’s first professionally staged opera, coming a year after his remarkable Adelson e Salvini, which the 23-year-old composer wrote for performance by students of the Naples Conservatory during his graduation year.1 When writing his first operas, Bellini was already a very skillful composer.

Her 2007-08 season finds her adding three new roles, one each by D. Scarlatti, Vivaldi and Rossini, and performing with several opera companies and orchestras for the first time.

During the course of the season the total performances as her most popular Rossini ladies (Angelina, Isabella and Rosina), each of which she sings over the following months, reaches more than two hundred. Ms. Genaux‘s season gets underway in San Sebastián, Spain with the first of the three role debuts, her premier appearance with the Cappella della Pietà de‘ Turchini, as the murderously unhinged Nerone in Domenico Scarlatti‘s Ottavia restituita al trono (Aug. 6), where her co-conspirators include: Ruth Rosique (Ottavia), Maria Grazia Schiavo (Poppea), Maria Ercolano (Floro), Cecilia Lavilla (Rosilda), Giuseppe de Vittoria (Balisa) and Paolo López (Dorillo).

  • Gioachino Rossini (1792–1868) Italian, Ingenious, Inspired
    Gioachino Rossini (1792–1868) Italian, ingenious, inspired. Gioachino Rossini occupied an unrivalled position in the Italian musical world of his time, winning considerable success relatively early in his career. He was the first of the great 19th century Italian opera composers and brought opera into the public consciousness and even today his music still rings true. Rossini had already written ten operas before he was 21, and eventually composed 39 major stage works, though in his last thirty years he wrotcve nothing new. He did try to become a composer of serious operas, but it will always be his comic operas, The Barber of Seville (8.553436) and Cinderella (8.660191-92) that his fame will rest. Label Cat.
