    THE Aldeburgh CONNECTION Madame Bizet Walter Hall, Sunday, December 2, 2012, 2:30 pm We wish to thank, most sincerely, Peter M. Partridge for sponsoring Nathalie Paulin and James and Connie MacDougall for sponsoring Brett Polegato * We are also grateful to James and Connie MacDougall for providing the flowers on stage * We are performing on the Edith McConica Steinway 1 Madame Bizet Walter Hall, Sunday, December 2, 2012, 2:30 pm Nathalie Paulin, soprano Brett Polegato, baritone Stephen Ralls and Bruce Ubukata, piano with Fiona Reid and Mike Shara Although the married life of Georges and Geneviève Bizet lasted only from 1869 until his death in 1875, those six years were packed with incident, from the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 and the subsequent uprising of the Paris Commune in 1871 through to the disastrous premiere of Carmen on March 3, 1875. The cumulative effects of those events is thought to have hastened the composer’s untimely demise at the age of 36. Unfortunately, despite the undoubted mutual love of the married couple, a considerable amount of blame may, perhaps, be attached to the appalling strains imposed on Bizet by the instability of his wife and, especially, his mother-in-law. Geneviève, the daughter of Fromental Halévy (composer of the ultra-grand French opera, La Juive), never fully recovered from the shock of the death at the age of 21 of her beloved elder sister, Esther. Even worse, her mother, in one of her recurrent bouts of insanity, blamed Geneviève herself for the tragedy, with such obsessive vindictiveness that mother and daughter were never able to live under the same roof again.

This afternoon’s presentation began its life in such a way - and along the journey, we were visited by so many surprising events and lucky coincidences as to convince us that the spirits were moving and helping to create something important. It all began at Christmas 2009. Once again, we were consulting Bruce’s mother’s convenient little handbook of the dates and anniversaries of composers and their works. What caught our eye this time was the first performance in 1911 of George Butterworth’s Six Songs from “A Shropshire Lad” - one of the earliest and greatest of English song-cycles which has always been a favourite of ours. We started to look into the circumstances of the premiere and discovered that the singer on that occasion was a baritone who subsequently emigrated to Canada, James Campbell McInnes.

  • Seattle Opera Announces 2015/16 Season: Nabucco, an American Dream, the Pearl Fishers, Mary Stuart, the Marriage of Figaro and the Flying Dutchman
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: January 1, 2015 DOWNLOADABLE PRESS IMAGES: http://www.seattleopera.org/news/image_library.aspx?id=30 Press contact: Gabrielle Nomura Gainor, 206.676.5559, [email protected] Seattle Opera Announces 2015/16 Season: Nabucco, An American Dream, The Pearl Fishers, Mary Stuart, The Marriage of Figaro and The Flying Dutchman Company Presents First Season of Aidan Lang’s Vision Year-Round Opera Returns in Seattle SEATTLE—It’s a new era at Seattle Opera. The company today announced its 2015/16 season, the first to be presented by General Director Aidan Lang, and a return to full-year programming with a total of six operas, including new productions and a world premiere. Under Lang’s leadership, the company hopes to serve the community through the magic of theater and music in McCaw Hall, and in learning and engagement programs across the Pacific Northwest. “We are excited to offer a season that is so varied, both in terms of repertoire and presentation style,” Lang said. “In addition to a world premiere, we have in Nabucco and Mary Stuart two great, highly dramatic works that have never before been seen in Seattle. And it is especially pleasing to maintain our Wagnerian credentials with a compelling, new-to-Seattle production of The Flying Dutchman. I know our audiences are in for a thrilling ride.” The 2015/16 season includes two company premieres: Nabucco (Verdi) and Mary Stuart (Donizetti); a world premiere: An American Dream (composed by Jack Perla with libretto by Jessica Murphy Moo) conceived from the company’s community storytelling initiative, the Belonging(s) Project; and new-to- the-company productions of The Marriage of Figaro (Mozart), The Pearl Fishers (Bizet) and The Flying Dutchman (Wagner).
