Don Giovanni - Royal Opera House 2019/20 (Ópera en directo en cines)
Don Giovanni
El eterno seductor vuelve a deslumbrarnos en la imponente tragicomedia de Mozart. Don Giovanni es la ópera en dos actos creada por Wolfang Amadeus Mozart y el libretista Lorenzo da Ponte estrenada en 1787. En ella se reescribe la obra literaria de Don Juan Tenorio, el arquetipo de hombre seductor y libertino, convertida en esta ocasión en una ópera dramática de connotaciones cómicas. Esta producción de Kasper Holten de 2014 para The Royal Opera, presenta a Don Giovanni como un joven artista que prospera en su sociedad. La espectacularidad en la escena es el resultado de la suma de los diseños de Es Devlin junto con los videos de Luke Halls, que nos transportan al mundo de las emociones acompañando a la maravillosa partitura de Mozart.
FAUSTO | ROH | Ópera en directo
Méphistophélès
EN DIRECTO EN CINES EL MARTES 30 DE ABRIL DE DE 2019, 19:45H. VIVA LA DECADENCIA Y ELEGANCIA DEL PARÍS DE LA DÉCADA DE 1870 EN LA ESPECTACULAR PRODUCCIÓN DE DAVID MCVICAR DE LA ÓPERA MÁS AMADA DE GOUNOD. Hay muchas versiones de la historia de Fausto, que vende su alma al Diablo a cambio de juventud y poder, pero la ópera de Gounod sigue siendo una de las más constantemente arrebatadoras. Michael Fabiano protagoniza la obra como Fausto, con Diana Damrau como su amada Marguerite y Erwin Schrott como el diabólico Mefistófeles.
Les Contes d'Hoffmann
Lindorf / Coppélius / Miracle / Dapertutto
The “superb, sinister” Tales of Hoffmann at the Dutch National Opera with “excellent soloists, the impressive John Osborn” (Theaterkrant) and “Christine Rice, a vocally and physically voluptuous Giulietta” (bachtrack.com), “mezzosoprano Irene Roberts, who plays and sings brilliantly” (Groene Amsterdammer) and “Erwin Schrott, singing the four villains for the first time, made it look like a blast.” (bachtrack.com) “Les Contes d'Hoffmann is a parade of golden voices”. (Volkskrant) Maestro Rizzi conducted with elegance and momentum the chorus and the “excellent playing Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra”. (Volkskrant) “Spectacular” (Trouw) “This production effortlessly fascinates from start to finish.” (Theaterkrant)
Mefistofele
Presented at Baden-Baden’s Pentecost Festival, this production of Boito’s Mefistofele captured the hearts of both audiences and critics—a rare feat! The success was unmistakably due in great part to the presence of Erwin Schrott—already celebrated for his performance as a seductive, witty, and diabolical Mephistopheles in Gounod’s Faust. The masterfully subtle Charles Castronovo incarnates the disillusioned philosopher Faust, who makes a deal with the devil. Philipp Himmelmann’s staging combines simple elements (a stage curtain made of silvery filaments and a giant protean skull) to incredible effect to tell the story of Goethe’s Faust.
Don Giovanni - Monte Carlo
The Monte Carlo Opera presents Mozart's legendary Don Giovanni, with a libretto of Lorenzo Da Ponte, in a performance conducted by Paolo Arrivabeni and staged by Jean-Louis Grinda.
Les Vêpres siciliennes
Jean Procida
The French have occupied Sicily, and Hélène is held hostage by Montfort, the French governor, who has had her brother executed. She turns to the partisan Jean Procida and the rebellious patriot Henri in her bid for vengeance. Les Vêpres siciliennes is one of Verdi’s lesser-known mature operas, but was vital to his development as a composer. It was created for the Paris Opéra in 1855, providing Verdi with an opportunity to embrace the elaborate style and traditions of French grand opera. First seen at the Royal Opera House in 2013, this staging of Verdi's rarely-performed opera Les Vêpres siciliennes – directed by Stefan Herheim and conducted by The Royal Opera’s Music Director, Verdi specialist Sir Antonio Pappano – went on to win the prestigious Olivier Award for Best New Opera Production.
Mozart Don Giovanni
Don Giovanni
A live recording of Don Giovanni from the Festspielhaus Baden Baden, recorded on May 23rd 2013.
Carmen
Escamillo
Roberto Alagna, Marina Poplavskaya, Beatrice Uria-Monzon are hot hot hot. This Carmen perfectly hits the gypsy theme as a way of life rather than just some sleazy seductress. This Carmen is troubled, intense, manipulative and totally believable as "damaged". Alagna plays his part brilliantly. He is seduced and naive. He is angry and frustrated. He has that "I can fix her" syndrome. Poplavskaya is always a pleasure in my book---and this role, while a small part, suits her. She is very naive and lost in the shuffle of the military and the gypsies...perfect. Some of this is even a little disturbing as the gypsies put a little lipstick on a very young girl. Brilliant. In all, this is a fantastic production.
Netrebko, Schrott and Kaufmann in Munich
The opera trio performed to a crowd of 15,000 who were willing to pay ticket prices up to $500 for tickets. There was beer and champagne, as well as pretzels and steak. The open-air concert managed to avoid the rains as well.
Carmen
Escamillo
Live performance from Teatro alla Scala, 7 December 2009 .
Mozart: Don Giovanni
Leporello
A striking interpretation of Mozart's opera that became a sensation at the 2008 Salzburg Festival. This is not only a rethinking of the place and time of the opera, but also a deep disclosure of the characters' characters, their ambiguous inner world. A simple, at first glance, plot is turned by the creators of the play into a dynamic psychological thriller.
Mozart: Le Nozze di Figaro
Figaro
David McVicar's spellbinding production of LE NOZZE DI FIGARO is set in 1830s post-revolution France, where the inexorable unravelling of an old order has produced acute feelings of loss. In the relationship between Finley's suave, dashingly self-absorbed Count and Röschmann's passionately dignified Countess, which lies at the tragic heart of the opera, the sexy ease between a feisty Figaro (Erwin Schrott) and a sassy Susanna (Miah Persson) is starkly absent, the tenacious spark between Marcellina (Graciela Araya) and Bartolo (Jonathan Veira) suggesting what might be rekindled. The production is superbly complemented by the beauty of Paule Constable's lighting and Tanya McCallin's evocative sets. Antonio Pappano conducts (and accompanies the recitatives) with invigorating wit and emotional depth.
Moïse et Pharaon
Pharaon
Live from La Scala Wednesday 10 December 2003
L'Elisir D'amore - Sferisterio
At the end of July 2002 the time had come again. An audience of 5000 had gathered to listen to the new production of Gaetano Donizetti’s L’elisir d’amore under the direction Saverio Marconi, conducted by Niels Muus. The orchestra was seated in an enormous box that was put on the stage, while the singers, in traditional costumes by Silvia Aymonino, performed on stage in front of it, among them the young Valeria Esposito as Adina, Aquiles Machado in the role of Nemorino, Enrico Marrucci as Belcore and the very young Erwin Schrott as Dulcamara.
Carmen: Wiener Staatsoper
Escamillo
After more than 40 years, the Vienna State Opera is bringing a new production of Carmen - in Calixto Bieito's brilliant and gripping staging - to the stage. Since the originally planned performances could not take place in front of an audience - we provide a recording of an extraordinary introductory matinee.
The Royal Opera House: Faust
Méphistophélès
Disillusioned with life, the aged philosopher Faust calls upon Satan to help him. The devil Méphistophélès appears and strikes a bargain with the philosopher: he will give him youth and the love of the beautiful Marguerite, if Faust hands over his soul. Faust agrees, and Méphistophélès arranges matters so that Marguerite loses interest in her suitor Siébel and becomes infatuated with Faust. Faust initially seems to love Marguerite in return, but soon abandons her. Her brother Valentin returns from the war and is furious to find his sister pregnant. Will Faust repent his destructive actions, and can his soul, and Marguerite's, be saved?
