2006 Tanglewood BOSTON SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA 125th Season, 2005-2006 Saturday, July 22, at 8:30 JAMES LEVINE conducting Please note that bass Ferruccio Furlanetto has regretfully had to withdraw from this concert performance of Don Giovanni because of illness. We are grateful that bass- baritone Luca Pisaroni has agreed at very short notice to sing the role of Leporello in Mr. Furlanetto's place. Luca Pisaroni Making his Boston Symphony Orchestra and Tanglewood debuts this evening, bass-baritone Luca Pisaroni grew up in Busseto, Parma. His musical training began at the Conservatorio Giuseppe Verdi in Milan and continued with Renato Sassola in Buenos Aires and Armen Boyajian and John Fisher in New York. His opera credits include Figaro in Le nozze di Figaro in Klagenfurt (for which he was awarded the Vienna State Opera's Eberhard-Wachter-Medal, as "young revelation of the season"), Masetto in Don Giovanni at the 2002 Salzburg Festival under Nikolaus Harnoncourt, Colline in La boheme at the Opera-Bastille in Paris, Figaro in Le nozze di Figaro at the Opera National du Rhin in Strasbourg and at the Theatre des Champs-Elysees, Alidoro in La Cenerentola in Santiago, Chile, and Guglielmo in Costfan tutte at the Mozartwochen at the Salzburg Landestheater. He returned to the 2003 Salzburg Festival for Publio in La clemenza di Tito, also reprising Masetto under Nikolaus Harnoncourt that same year. In concert, he has sung Haydn's Nelson Mass at the Salzburg Easter Festival, Zebul in Handel's Jephtha with the Berlin Philharmonic, Michael Haydn's Requiem in C minor at the Salzburg Festival under Ivor Bolton, Mozart's Coronation Mass with Jean-Christophe Spinosi, and Mozart's Mass in C Minor at the Salzburg Festival under Mark Minkowski. Engagements in 2004-05 included Vivaldi's Orlandofurioso with Jean-Christophe Spinosi and his Ensemble Matheus in Toulouse and Brussels, Achilla in Giulio Cesare in Denver, and his Metropolitan Opera debut under James Levine as Publio in La clemenza di Tito, a role he also performed at this year's Aix-en-Provence Festival. This summer, he sang Hercules in Gluck's Alceste at the Salzburg Festival under Ivor Bolton. He has recorded the role of Alidoro in La Cenerentola with Alberto Zedda for the Naxos label. Mr. Pisaroni began his 2005-06 season at the Teatro Real in Madrid as Leporello in Don Giovanni, following this with his debut as Figaro in Le nozze di Figaro for the Metropolitan Opera and Papageno in Die Zauberflbte at the Theatre des Champs-Elysees. Earlier this year he returned to Paris as Leporello at the Opera-Bastille in a new production by Michael Haneke, and appeared as Colline in La boheme at Madrid's Teatro Real. Most recently he made his Glyndebourne debut as Guglielmo in Cost fan tutte. He will return to the Salzburg Festival as Masetto under Daniel Harding and as Publio with Nikolaus Harnoncourt conducting. Later this year he will perform the roles of Figaro and Guglielmo for Amsterdam Opera. Other future engagements include a staged version of J.S. Bach's St. John Passion at the Theatre du Chatelet with Emmanuelle Hai'm conducting, and Masetto in Don Giovanni in San Francisco.
