In 2017 it launched a new brand, The Mozartists, enabling it to broaden its ever-expanding concert work while continuing to present recordings and performances of complete operas under the name of Classical Opera. With its own acclaimed period-instrument orchestra, the company has attracted widespread critical and public recognition, not only for the high quality of its performances but also for its imaginative programming and its ability to discover and nurture outstanding young singers. In 2015 it launched MOZART 250, a ground-breaking 27-year project following the chronological trajectory of Mozart’s life, works and influences. Classical Opera has performed regularly at many of London and the UK’s leading venues, including Wigmore Hall, the Barbican, Sadler’s Wells, Birmingham Town Hall and Bridgewater Hall, Manchester, and on tour in Italy, France, Germany and Austria, where it enjoyed a three-concert residency at the 2016 Eisenstadt Haydn Festival. It has mounted staged productions of many of Mozart’s operas, and in 2009 presented The Royal Opera’s new production of Thomas Arne’s Artaxerxes.

  • Viva!” Is the Final Number of Il Re Pastore (The Shepherd King), Which Mozart Composed in 1775 in Salzburg When He Was Just 19 Years Old
    2 Editor’s Note Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791) was one of the most significant composers of the Viennese Classical style and is revered today as one of the greatest composers of all time. Mozart was a tremendously talented composer in the many forms of the Classical era, including operas, symphonies, concertos, chamber works, sonatas, choral works, arias, and songs. His works are highly revered today for their beautiful melodies and rich harmonies. Born in Salzburg, Austria, Mozart’s genius was apparent at a very early age. He became a well-known performer in many European cities by his early teens, eventually serving as concertmaster for the Archbishop of Salzburg. In 1781, after becoming discontented with his low salary and the lack of opportunity for more opera composition in Salzburg, Mozart quit the position and settled in Vienna. Achieving many successes in Vienna, he became known as the finest keyboardist in the city, and he completed a variety of works, including piano concertos and operas. Although he became famous for a while, Mozart’s career and finances gradually declined. He spent his remaining years without the security of a permanent position while struggling for recognition and commissions. “Viva!” is the final number of Il re pastore (The Shepherd King), which Mozart composed in 1775 in Salzburg when he was just 19 years old. Based on the 1751 libretto of Pietro Metastasio, this two-act work is often referred to as a “seranata” because it is a shortened version of an opera seria (serious opera). The production features a small cast of performers and was originally presented with very limited staging.

  • IL RE PASTORE July 19 and 21 in San Francisco
    MEROLA OPERA PROGRAM CONTINUES ITS 61 ST SEASON WITH IL RE PASTORE July 19 and 21 in San Francisco SAN FRANCISCO, CA (6 June 2018) – San Francisco’s acclaimed Merola Opera Program presents the stars of tomorrow in Mozart’s Il re pastore . Merola is one of the most prestigious and selective opera training programs in the world, featuring 29 artists selected from more than 800 international applicants. This exquisite early Mozart work featuring a string of thrilling arias explores the competing pulls of love and duty, as a young shepherd finds he must renounce his true love in order to reclaim his lost throne. Il re pastore will be performed 7:30pm, Thursday, July 19, and 2:00pm, Saturday, July 21, at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music . For tickets or more information, visit www.merola.org or call ( 415) 864-3330. In the spring of 1775, 19-year-old Mozart wrote Il re pastore in response to a commission by the Archbishop of Salzburg. With a plot that explored the demands of love against the demands of kingship, the young Mozart’s work shines with its rich orchestration and ingenious score. In addition to fulsome dramatic singing from all five soloists, highlights include Aminta’s famous arias “Aer tranquillo e di sereni” and “L'amerò, sarò costante.” Performances will be conducted by Stephen Stubbs, a leading figure in the American early music scene and winner of a Grammy Award for Best Opera Recording in 2015 for Charpentier: La descente d’Orphée aux enfers. In 2007, Stubbs established his production company, Pacific MusicWorks, based in Seattle, reflecting his lifelong interest in both early music and contemporary performance.

This reality seems to go unnoticed by most, but the fact remains that many individuals and their societies have formed a cultural identity from the combination of many foreign influences. Such a multicultural identity can be seen particularly in music. Composers, artists, and performers alike frequently seek to incorporate separate elements of style in their own identity. One of the earliest examples of this tradition is the German Singspiel.

  • Magic Mozart a Delighted Cabaret ! (Concert Version)
    2019 I 2020 SEASON MAGIC MOZART A DELIGHTED CABARET ! (CONCERT VERSION) DIFFUSION 1ST - 22 JULY 2020 insulaorchestra.fr MAGIC MOZART A DELIGHTED CABARET ! (CONCERT VERSION) Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791) Excerpts from chosen works* : Duration : 1h15 without interval The Magic Flute The Marriage of Figaro Numbers: Don Giovanni 4 soloists, 41 musicians Der Stein der Weisen La Finta semplice Diffusion : Bastien und Bastienne 1st-22 july 2020 ... * possibility to add to the program the symphony n°40 in G minor Olga Pudova, soprano Léa Desandre, mezzo-soprano Ben Bliss, ténor (tbc) Armando Noguera, baryton Insula orchestra Laurence Equilbey, conductor This programme will be recorded for a Warner Classics-Erato disc (april 2020). Mozart’s music is magic. Insula orchestra takes the statement literally, offering a selection of works and musical extracts in which the wonderment of magical experience is a central theme. Known by the music lovers as well as by the general public, these poetic or comical melodies, duos and ensembles are performed in a succession of short, diverting and enchanting acts. The Magic Flute, Mozart’s last opera, composed in 1791, is of course the cornerstone, with its magic bells, bewitched animals and Queen of the Night. But we will also find there some characters from the Marriage of Figaro, Don Giovanni, La Finta semplice, Bastien und Bastienne, or from the more unusual Der Stein der Weisen (The Philosopher’s Stone), a Singspiel written by four authors among whom Mozart and the librettist of The Magic Flute, Emanuel Schikaneder. Three dominant colours are at work in these Magic Mozart sketches: the benevolence and transparency of white magic; the tumultuous emotions of love, expressing red magic in arias like “Voi che sapete” and “Porgi amor”; and black magic, driven by vengeance and symbolized by the Queen of the Night’s aria, “Der Hölle Rache”.
