#Marie-Nicole Lemieux

[prokopetz]

I need to subject everyone following this blog to exactly what CBC Radio thought was an appropriate wakeup call for everybody who had their alarm set to 7:15 this morning.

[pop-sesivo]

De las obras más curiosas de Reynaldo Hahn (Caracas, 1874-París, 1947) están las 5 Little Songs (1915), en las que puso música a poemas de Robert Louis Stevenson. La cantanta lírica canadiense Marie-Nicole Lemieux las grabó en el álbum "L'heure exquise" (2005).

Mezzos ON Monday: Lemieux recital and ASvO Rückert-Lieder

I usually post my World Concert Hall finds late on Monday nights in my time zone—when it’s already Tuesday in Europe—and make a list of concert broadcasts for the week ahead. I did not, however, make a “Mostly Mezzo Mondays” post last week, and now I want to point out a couple broadcasts happening today, Monday, May 11:

Marie-Nicole Lemieux sings a recital with Daniel Blumenthal including songs by Schumann, Schubert, Beethoven, F. Mendelssohn, Wolf, Fauré, Debussy, Duparc, and more. Recorded in Brussels November 2019;  deferred broadcast Monday, May 11 on RTBF Musiq 3.

Anne Sofie von Otter sings Mahler’s Rückert-Lieder with the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra in a concert recorded back in 2017. Deferred broadcast Monday, May 11 on NPO Radio 4.

“Sudò il guerriero” Il Ritorno di Tobia Joseph Haydn 

Marie-Nicole Lemieux Les Violons du Roy cond.: Bernard Labadie 

Anna’s aria: Sudò il guerriero, Ma gloria ottenne; Tremò il nocchiero, Ma s’arricchì.

Geme talora L’agricoltore; Ma lo ristora La messe un dì.

Tu passi gl’anni Fra pene e pianti, E sono i danni La tua mercé.

Chiaro si vede Che fra’ tuoi vanti Un vero merito Giammai non c’è.

The warrior sweated  but won himself glory The sailor trembled, but became a rich man

Sometimes the farmer sighs, but the harvest one day repays him

You are spending your life in woe and grief, and bitter suffering is your reward.

It's clear that true merits – despite you vaunting them – you will never earn.

~

Der Krieger schwitzte, doch er erwarb sich Ruhm; der Seefahrer zitterte, doch er wurde reich.

Zuweilen stöhnt der Bauer, doch die Ernte entschädigt ihn eines Tages.

Du verbringst die Jahre mit Mühen und Klagen und schwere Leiden sind dein Lohn.

Es ist offensichtlich, dass du wahre Verdienste, obwohl du dich ihrer rühmst, niemals erringen wirst.

Rediscovering your values: Jephtha inside.

I have to admit that my exploration path towards a better understanding of baroque opera has been long and thorny, and I am still far away from becoming an aficionado of that era in music. Nevertheless, I am not giving up and looking to learn more, as a better understanding of the topic brings acceptance and admiration. Thus, seeing a combination of world-renowned baroque specialist William…

Mostly Mezzo Mondays: Lemieux, Mameli, Prina, Erraught, Hallenberg (x2), Gauvin, Baráth, Lindsey (x2)

Mostly Mezzo Mondays: a recurring (though not weekly) feature where, on Monday nights, I blog a list of the upcoming broadcasts that have caught my eye on World Concert Hall. My interests: baroque vocal music, art song recitals, and a list of favorite singers.

Marie-Nicole Lemieux sings Berlioz’ Les nuits d’été with the Orchestre National de France. Live broadcast Wednesday, September 18 on France Musique.

Roberta Mameli and Sonia Prina make up two thirds of the vocal team for a performance of Handel’s Aci, Galatea, e Polifemo with Labarroca at the Enescu Festival. Live broadcast Thursday, September 19 on Radio România Muzical (and presumably a video livestream from the festival as well).

Tara Erraught sings lieder by Wolf, Schubert, Mahler, and Brahms in a recital at Schwarzenberg with clarinetist Jörg Widmann and pianist Malcolm Martineau. Deferred broadcast Thursday, September 19 on Ö1. 

Handel’s Giulio Cesare at the Enescu Festival features a countertenor Cesare (Christopher Lowry) but mezzophiles may enjoy hearing Ann Hallenberg in the role of Sesto. Also notable: Karina Gauvin as Cleopatra. The Cornelia, Eve-Maud Hubeaux, is unknown to me; her YouTube clips give evidence of a mahogany-toned voice. The orchestra is Les Talens Lyriques conducted by Christophe Rousset. Live broadcast Friday, September 20 on Radio România Muzical (and video livestream, I assume).

Emőke Baráth sings the role of Euridice in a performance of Monteverdi’s Orfeo. Other names that stand out to me on the cast list are Cyril Auvity and Nuria Rial. Live broadcast Friday, September 20 on the Müpa Budapest website (it’s not clear to me whether this will be audio-only or a video livestream). 

Ann Hallenberg leads the cast of Handel’s Agrippina at the Enescu Festival. Much of the casting of Cesare is repeated (including Lowrey and Gauvin), as are the orchestra and conductor. Live broadcast Saturday, September 21 on Radio România Muzical (and, presumably, in a livestream on the Festival’s website). 

Kate Lindsey sings, I assume, the role of Juliet in Berlioz’ Romeo et Juliette. Andrew Staples and Shenyang are also on the roster. Deferred broadcast Saturday, September 21 on RBB Kultur.

Kate Lindsey also sings—or rather, sang, eight years ago—a recital of works by Liszt, Bizet, Fairouz, Arlen and Argento. With Kim Pensinger Witman. Very, very deferred broadcast Sunday, September 22 on WETA.
