Opera on YouTube

I've shared links to complete opera performances before, but I love to share them, so I thought I'd make a few masterposts.

These list are by no means the only complete filmed performances of these operas on YouTube, but I decided that ten links for each opera was enough for now.

By the way, some of the subtitles are just a part of the video, while others require you to click CC to see them.

Conversando con Saimir Pirgu

Ph. Fadil Berisha

Solo poche settimane sono trascorse dalla splendida edizione dell’Eugenio Onegin in scena al Teatro dell’Opera di Roma e, come per tutti, anche la vita di Saimir Pirguè cambiata. La sua squisita musicalità e la bellezza del fraseggio possono risuonare oggi solo fra le pareti della sua casa. La sensibilità dell’artista traspare in quel che dice, schiettamente, mentre parla di…

Mostly Mezzo Mondays: Piau, Coote, Graham, Watson, Connolly (x3), Clayton, Hannigan, Crebassa, & many more

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.

Sandrine Piau is among the soloists for a performance of Jommelli’s Requiem recorded late last year. (The same team can be heard in the previous day’s performance on YouTube.) Deferred broadcast Tuesday, August 11 on WDR 3.

Sarah Connolly sings a recital of works by Debussy, Schoenberg, Eisler, Zemlinsky, Poulenc, Strauss, and Korngold, accompanied by Malcolm Martineau. Re-broadcast Wednesday, August 12 on BBC Radio 3.* 

Sarah Connolly sings the role of Dido in a performance of Purcell’s Dido and Aeneas recorded at the 2003 Proms. Other notables in the cast include Christopher Purves as Aeneas and Carolyn Sampson as Belinda. Archival broadcast Thursday, August 13 on BBC Radio 3.*

Alice Coote is among the soloists for a performance of Mahler’s Des Knaben Wunderhorn conducted by Herreweghe in 2010. Second part of an archival broadcast program Saturday, August 15 on NPO Radio 4.

Susan Graham sings the Composer in a production of Strauss’s Ariadne auf Naxos recorded at the Houston Grand Opera in 2011; Christine Goerke and Laura Claycomb are among her co-stars. Archival broadcast Saturday, August 15 on HPM Classical.

Katherine Watson sings a small selection of Handel arias as part of a baroque concert with the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment recorded in 2018. Deferred broadcast Saturday, August 15 on Radio Clásica.

As part of its free online streaming program this summer, Glyndebourne will be showing the 2017 world premiere of Brett Dean’s Hamlet. The show stars, among others, Allan Clayton (Hamlet), Sarah Connolly (Gertrude), Rod Gilfry (Claudius), Barbara Hannigan (Ophelia), and John Tomlinson (Ghost, Player King, and Gravedigger). I had the pleasure of seeing this production live; I was there for Connolly’s Gertrude (“on excellent form, all tiaras and condescension and cracking veneer” as one reviewer put it), but Clayton’s outstanding performance in the marathon title role blew me away, and Hannigan’s live-wire Ophelia was quite memorable, too. Video stream Sunday, August 16 on the Glyndebourne website; should remain available for a week. (Looks like this will be geoblocked in France and Japan.)

I don’t have a particular favorite to call out, but the cast of this Saul from the 2003 Proms is strong all around: Neal Davies, Andreas Scholl, Deborah York, Susan Gritton, Mark Padmore, Paul Agnew, and Jonathan Lemalu. Archival broadcast Sunday, August 16 on BBC Radio 3.

Beethoven’s Ninth is arguably just the thing to lift our mid-pandemic spirits, although the fact that it is being performed live in Salzburg while live performance of large-scale classical works remains ethically impossible in my own country (due to horrendously inadequate responses to the public health crisis on the part of both the leadership and the public) makes me feel just a little bit bitter about putting it on this list. The names of vocal soloists Marianne Crebassa and Gerald Finley caught my eye; I can’t say I am as familiar with the work of Asmik Grigorian and Saimir Pirgu, but I trust they’re up to snuff. Deferred (only by three days) video stream on Arte Concert. (May be geoblocked.)

“Quando me'n vo'” from Puccini’s La Bohème Opéra de Monte-Carlo - Mariam Battistelli Musetta needs attention sometimes, to say the least. When she shows up at the Café Momus and sings “Quando me'n vo'” (also known as “Musetta’s Waltz”) in an attempt to seduce her former lover Marcello, she surely wins the hearts of the audience too. 👇 🎼 👇 https://www.youtube.com/embed/kCralQMcehc

Saimir Pirgu: "La ópera en televisión nunca transmitirá las sensaciones que se dan en el teatro"

Saimir Pirgu: “La ópera en televisión nunca transmitirá las sensaciones que se dan en el teatro”

VALÈNCIA. Saimir Pirgu es uno de los tenores más importantes del momento. Con un amplio repertorio a sus espaldas -a pesar de su juventud-, estos días se mete en la piel de un personaje que conoce muy bien. Se trata de Rodolfo, el poeta bohemio y pobre del París de finales del siglo XIX de La Bohème, que se representa hasta el 23 de diciembre en Les Arts. No volvía a València desde aquel lejano…

Madama Butterfly, Donato Renzetti, Alex Olle, Teatro dall'opera di Roma, Circo Massimo

Sempre suggestive questa bellissima location estiva per l'opera di Roma. Il rumore delle auto sulla strada laterale si dimentica di fronte alla bellezza dei Fori e dei pini che costeggiano il Circo Massimo.

Notevole la dimensione del palco che permette delle messe in opera molto spettacolari e riduce la classica distinzione tra preparazione della scena e performance. Tutto infatti avviene di fronte al pubblico, dai cambi di scena alla messa a punto della scenografia. Elemento questo sottolineato dal figurante, travestito da operaio edile, che fa misurazioni sul palco prima dell'inizio.

E la costruzione è il motivo trainante di questa messa in scena moderna. I palazzi rappresentano un elemento importante della scenografia.

Meno impattante il primo atto dove la scena si svolge ai bordi di un bosco.

Bello il secondo atto con una bellissima scenografia che sottolinea il dramma attraverso un bel gioco di luci e il grande schermo sullo sfondo dove si costruiscono e si illuminano gli alti palazzi che contrastano con la piccola abitazione di Madama Butterfly. Una chicca il taxi elettrico che attraversa la scena sottolineando questa unicità della dimensione del palco.

Interessante il modo di rappresentare il suicidio che non avviene di fronte al pubblico ma è simboleggiano sul grande schermo che si tinge di rosso.

Bravi i cantanti e puntuale la direzione.

Albanian music

The Music of Albania has ancient origins, in fact it was handed down from father to son only by oral tradition that there were no sheet from which young people could tap into for training music .

There are various types of musical genres, which show the numerous influences; traditional folklore music differs from the regions with major stylistic differences between the music of the Gheg in the north and the Toschi in the south

albanesi canzoni

. City "popular" music developed around the cities of Korça, Shkodra and Tirana. One of the most important festivals for the performance of Albanian traditional music is the National Folklore Festival of Argirocastra which is held every 5 years. From 1920 Albanian classical music was born. Important space also have the kënge të lehta that is light songs. Currently the musical genre that is enjoying great success in Albania is that of rap.

Features 

   Albania's political, military and cultural dominations by foreign elements have contributed to the country's modern music scene. Albanian music is a fusion of music from Southeast Europe, especially those of the Ottoman Empire , which ruled Albania for more than 500 years. However

albania canzoni

, the Albanian people have kept their vast cultural identity away from the ruler, even living in mountains and rural areas and continuing to pass down the different characteristics of their music from generation to generation.

Folk Music 

  Albanian folk music can be divided into three stylistic groups, with other important and somewhat peculiar musical areas around the cities of Shkodër , Tirana and Korça ; the groups are the northern Gheg and the southern Lab and Toschi. Traditions contrast in the "heroic and rough" tones of the north and the "relaxed and refined" ones of the south

albania musica

. These disparate styles are united "by the intensity they both give to their music as a means of patriotic expression and a carrier vehicle for the narrative of oral history ", as well as certain characteristics like the use of rhythms such as 3/8 , 5/8 and 10/8.The first compilation of Albanian folk music was made by Pjetër Dungu in 1940.

Albanian folklore songs can be divided into large groups, the heroic epics of the north, the sweet melodies of lullabies, love songs, wedding music, work songs and other types. The music of the various festivals and holidays is also an important part, especially those celebrating Summer Day, (Dita and Veres) to usher in spring. Lullabies and lamentations are usually sung by a woman. The folkloric instruments used are: the gajda and the çiftelia .

    The music of Albania ( Albanian : Muzika Shqiptare ) is associated with the country of Albania and the Albanian communities . Music has a long tradition in the country and is known for its regional diversity, from Gheg in the north to Toschi in the south. It is an integral part of the national identity, heavily influenced by the country's long and turbulent history

canzoni albanese

, which forced Albanians to protect their culture from their masters by living in rural and remote mountains. Varied Albanian folk music includes monophonic and polyphonic styles , responses , choral, instrumental and vocal music. Each region has a unique musical tradition that reflects its history, language and culture . Polyphonic singing and singing forms are found mainly in the south of Albania, while in the north they are predominantly monophonic. Albanian iso-polyphony has been declared an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO. The Gjirokastër National Folklore Festival , held every five years in Gjirokastër , is an important place that exhibits traditional Albanian music. Albanian music extends to ancient Illyria and ancient Greece , with influences from the Byzantine and Ottoman empires . It is evident in archaeological finds such as arenas, odeons , theatrical buildings and amphitheaters, throughout Albania. The remains of temples, libraries, sculptures and paintings of ancient dancers, singers and musical instruments have been found in territories inhabited by the ancient Illyrians and the ancient Greeks
