Mabellini, Political Survival and Il Conte Di Lavagna Alexander Weatherson
Mabellini, political survival and Il conte di Lavagna Alexander Weatherson [...when the order form had been passed over the counter of the famous Library requesting the vocal score of Il conte di Lavagna, there was a long pause - then the lady came back and said there did not seem to be an opera by Bellini with this name…] Once a musical personality of considerable renown, if mostly as a conductor, Teodulo Mabellini should nowadays perhaps be described as Mercadante’s legacy to Padania. Born in Pistoia on 2 April 1817, he studied locally before removing to Florence where soon he was hailed as a prodigy. To such an extent indeed that after the plaudits and astonishment of his 1836 début with an opera called Matilde e Toledo set to a terrible mouthful of a libretto by a certain don Giuseppe Tigri (not “Matilde a Toledo” or “Matilde di Toledo” as we are often told - Toledo is the name of Matilde’s unfortunate husband) sung by students and dilettanti at the Teatro Alfieri, he was sent off to improve himself (per perfezionarsi) with Saverio Mercadante in Novara where the latter held the post of Maestro di Cappella. This impressive endorsement of his potential apparently on the initiative of a group of concittadini together with the famous impresario Alessandro Lanari, but at the expense of none-other than the Grand-Duke of Tuscany, Leopoldo II. An amiable, compliant, competent youth he thus achieved a fluency that was wholly meridional matched by an instrumental knowhow that was frankly of the north. On reflection, it may only be by mischance that he failed to generate the same kind of serious acclaim that sustained far-more famous composers with whose careers he overlapped. -

Heft 3/56. Jahrgang Unsere Kulturförderung: Gut Für Die Kultur
2009 Heft 3/56. Jahrgang Unsere Kulturförderung: Gut für die Kultur. Gut für die Region. Musik ist ein wichtiges Bindeglied der Gesellschaft. Sie stärkt den Zusammenhalt und schafft Vorbilder. Deshalb unterstützen wir die Musik und sorgen für die notwendigen Rahmenbedingungen: regional und national, in der Nachwuchsförderung. Die Unterstützung des Wettbewerbs „Jugend musiziert“ und des „Landesjugendorchesters Baden-Württemberg“ ist ein Teil dieses Engagements. www.sparkasse-bodensee.de. Nachrichten Liebe Leserinnen und Leser, Editorial ald ist es soweit. Am 15. November wird in der Konstan- bzer Kirche St. Gebhard die Messa per Rossini erklingen und der Sinfonische Chor freut sich schon sehr darauf, wie- wohl noch eine Menge Arbeit vor ihm liegt. Es ist ein beson- deres und großartiges Werk. Um Missverständnissen vor- zubeugen: die Messa per Rossini ist nicht von, sondern für Gioacchino Rossini geschrieben. Ihm zu Ehren machten sich 13 zeitgenössische italienische Komponisten, darunter Giuseppe Verdi, nach dessen Tod ans Werk. Gisela Auchter wird in dieser Ausgabe auf die Entstehungs- wehen dieses Werks eingehen („Dem Vergessen entrissen“) und auch einen kurzen biographischen Abriss der neben Verdi zwölf für uns doch recht unbekannten Komponisten beisteuern („Messa per Rossini – Die Komponisten“). Die Messa per Rossini bildet das Festkonzert zum 175-jähri- gen Jubiläum unseres Chores. Ich habe diese Gelegenheit aufgegriffen, in dieser Ausgabe eine kurze Zusammenfas- sung unserer Chorgeschichte zu schreiben. Es war sehr in- teressant, in alten Unterlagen zu stöbern und immer wieder festzustellen, welche Bedeutung doch dieser Chor für Konstanz hat und auf welch reichhaltige Geschichte zurück- geblickt werden kann. An dieser Stelle möchte ich auch nochmals unserem Ehrenmitglied Anton Kleiner für die großzügige Überlassung alter Chordokumente danken. -

Giuseppe Maria Iacovelli L'immagine Della Romanità Nella Cultura Italiana
GIUSEPPE MARIA IACOVELLI L’IMMAGINE DELLA ROMANITÀ NELLA CULTURA ITALIANA FINO A MELENIS Chi ci libererà dai Greci e dai Romani? Voltaire INTRODUZIONE Descrivere il modo in cui un ampio patrimonio di conoscenze stori- co-letterarie abbia viaggiato nel tempo, attraverso non meno di quindici secoli, e si sia incontrato con un giovane compositore roveretano alla ricerca di un soggetto per il suo nuovo impegno operistico può sembra- re poco interessante, finanche superfluo; non soltanto perché di quel patrimonio qualsiasi individuo uscito intellettualmente illeso dalla scuola dovrebbe conservare polputi scampoli, ma soprattutto perché l’Italia vanta una continuità culturale con la tradizione latina (e anche greca) quale nessun Paese dell’Occidente potrebbe nemmeno sperare di egua- gliare. E benché l’Italia del terzo millennio non trasudi affezione per un passato al quale deve le radici della sua identità, oltre che un primato storico ormai spensieratamente barattato con i prodotti della volgarità internazionale, la composizione della Melenis di Riccardo Zandonai (1912) mostra invece quanto quel passato fosse vivo nella cultura media di appena un secolo fa. È un luogo comune che la letteratura, le arti figurative e l’architettu- ra abbiano attinto all’eredità classica, specialmente a partire dal periodo che, in virtù della massiccia riscoperta della civiltà greco-romana, pren- de il nome di Rinascimento; altrettanto noto che il richiamarsi a quei modelli sia assurto a divisa estetica lungo quattrocento anni di cultura europea, durante i quali non si fece che avanzare con lo sguardo fidu- 14 GIUSEPPE MARIA IACOVELLI ciosamente fisso all’indietro, almeno fino al crepuscolo del secolo XIX, quando artisti e pensatori si volsero, con tetragono sgomento, agli abis- si dell’interiorità. -

Nineteenth-Century Music Review, 14 (2017), pp 211–242. © Cambridge University Press, 2016 doi:10.1017/S1479409816000082 First published online 8 September 2016 Romantic Nostalgia and Wagnerismo During the Age of Verismo: The Case of Alberto Franchetti* Davide Ceriani Rowan University Email: [email protected] The world premiere of Pietro Mascagni’s Cavalleria rusticana on 17 May 1890 immediately became a central event in Italy’s recent operatic history. As contemporary music critic and composer, Francesco D’Arcais, wrote: Maybe for the first time, at least in quite a while, learned people, the audience and the press shared the same opinion on an opera. [Composers] called upon to choose the works to be staged, among those presented for the Sonzogno [opera] competition, immediately picked Mascagni’s Cavalleria rusticana as one of the best; the audience awarded this composer triumphal honours, and the press 1 unanimously praised it to the heavens. D’Arcais acknowledged Mascagni’smeritsbut,inthesamearticle,alsourgedcaution in too enthusiastically festooning the work with critical laurels: the dangers of excessive adulation had already become alarmingly apparent in numerous ill-starred precedents. In the two decades prior to its premiere, several other Italian composers similarly attained outstanding critical and popular success with a single work, but were later unable to emulate their earlier achievements. Among these composers were Filippo Marchetti (Ruy Blas, 1869), Stefano Gobatti (IGoti, 1873), Arrigo Boito (with the revised version of Mefistofele, 1875), Amilcare Ponchielli (La Gioconda, 1876) and Giovanni Bottesini (Ero e Leandro, 1879). Once again, and more than a decade after Bottesini’s one-hit wonder, D’Arcais found himself wondering whether in Mascagni ‘We [Italians] have finally [found] … the legitimate successor to [our] great composers, the person 2 who will perpetuate our musical glory?’ This hoary nationalist interrogative returned in 1890 like an old-fashioned curse. -

The question, however, remains as to what extent this report- ed scepticism truly reflects people’s opinions and feelings about Europe. We all consider it normal to cross borders within Europe, often while using the same money, as well as to take part in exchange programmes, invest in enterprises across Europe and appeal to European institutions if national regulations, for example, do not meet our expectations. -
LINER NOTES Recorded Anthology of American Music, Inc
ALL THE RAGE: New World Records 80544 Nashville Mandolin Ensemble At the turn of the twentieth century, a sound lilted through the air of American music like nothing that had ever been heard before. It inspired one writer to call it “the true soul of music.” It inspired thousands of Americans to pick up instruments and form groups to create this sound for themselves. It was the sound of the mandolin orchestra, a sound that the Nashville Mandolin Orchestra recreates on All the Rage, a sound as fresh and new today as it was in its heyday. The late nineteenth century was an exciting time for American music lovers. The invention of the phonograph had brought music into the home, and the increased exposure and competition brought out the best in musicians. John Philip Sousa’s band perfected the sound of the brass band, and the Peerless Quartet took four-part vocal performance to a level of perfection. But these were stylistic accomplishments with familiar, existing sounds—brass instruments and human vocal cords. The sound of the mandolin orchestra carried an extra edge of excitement because most Americans had never even heard a mandolin, much less the sound of mandolin-family instruments played in an orchestral setting. The mandolin alone had a distinct, unique sound. When a mandolinist plucked a single-note run, nothing could match its crispness of attack and delicacy of tone. And when a group of mandolin-family instruments launched into an ensemble tremolo, the listener was bathed in wave after wave of the most beautiful sound imaginable.
