  • The Blake Collection in Memory of Nancy M

    The Blake Collection in Memory of Nancy M

    The Blake Collection In Memory of Nancy M. Blake BELLINI’S NORMA featuring CECILIA BARTOLI This tragic opera is set in Roman-occupied, first-century Gaul, features a title character, who although a Druid priestess, is in many ways a modern woman. Norma has secretly taken the Roman proconsul Pollione as her lover and had two children with him. Political and personal crises arise when the locals turn against the occupiers and Pollione turns to a new paramour. Norma “is a role with emotions ranging from haughty and demanding, to desperately passionate, to vengeful and defiant. And the singer must convey all of this while confronting some of the most vocally challenging music ever composed. And if that weren't intimidating enough for any singer, Norma and its composer have become almost synonymous with the specific and notoriously torturous style of opera known as bel canto — literally, ‘beautiful singing’” (“Love Among the Druids: Bellini's Norma,” NPR World of Opera, May 16, 2008). And Bartoli, one of the greatest living opera divas, is up to the challenges the role brings. (New York Public Radio’s WQXR’s “OperaVore” declared that “Bartoli is Fierce and Mercurial in Bellini's Norma,” Marion Lignana Rosenberg, June 09, 2013.) If you’re already a fan of this opera, you’ve no doubt heard a recording spotlighting the great soprano Maria Callas (and we have such a recording, too), but as the notes with the Bartoli recording point out, “The role of Norma was written for Giuditta Pasta, who sang what today’s listeners would consider to be mezzo-soprano roles,” making Bartoli more appropriate than Callas as Norma.

Photo: Michael Cooper TD Securities proudly supports the Canadian Opera Company’s endeavor to make the art of opera more accessible to all. message from the general director Welcome to the 14th Annual Fine Wine Auction On behalf of the Canadian Opera Company’s Board of Directors, staff, volunteers, and artists, it gives me great pleasure to welcome you to the COC’s 14th Annual Fine Wine Auction. Since its inception, the Fine Wine Auction has raised almost one million dollars in support of the Canadian Opera Company’s vision of delivering live opera of the highest quality and artistic excellence. With your donations and presence at this event, you help us maintain our position as a creative leader and innovator in the world of opera. We have had a tremendous year so far at the Canadian Opera Company. The 2012/2013 season has garnered critical acclaim and popular support, and the company continues to enjoy sold-out or near-capacity attendance. Ticket sales, however, only account for 31% of our operating budget. The rest of the funding required to produce great opera must come in large part from the generosity of individuals. Events like the Fine Wine Auction are vital to these fundraising efforts. The success of tonight’s event would not be possible without the incredible dedication of our outstanding volunteers. In particular, I would like to recognize the leadership of Michael Gibbens, our Chair of the Fine Wine Auction Committee, who has done an exceptional job of elevating the profile of this annual event.
