Vivaldi: Catone in Utica – Malgoire – Tourcoing (F) 2001
Antonio Vivaldi (1678-1741)Catone in UticaVeronica Cangemi, Jacek Laszczkovsky, Simon Edwards, Philippe Jaroussky, Liliana Faraon, Diana BertiniLa Grande Ecurie et la Chambre du RoyJean-Claude MalgoireDynamic CDS 403/1-2 (2002)[flac, cue, log, scans with libretto]Jean-Claude Malgoire (1940-2018) has been artistic director of the Atelier Lyrique de Tourcoing for the last 37 years. This live recording presents one the many operas performed in that city in the north of France. Malgoire conducts the ensemble he founded in 1966.The score of the first act of Catone in Utica was missing so Malgoire reconstructed it, composing the recitatives and searching for arias whose music fitted the libretto. In fact two original arias have been found because they were used also in Griselda and Rosmira fedele. Three arias have been chosen among the six surviving arias of Semiramide; then there is an aria that Vivaldi wanted to add to Farnace, and there is the only extant aria of […]

[…] the work’s conclusion. Not a real-life scenario, naturally, but one drawn from the realms of myth. Orfeo sings the opera’s most famous number (the ravishing ‘Che farò senza Euridice’), melting the god Amor’s heart and definitively restoring Euridice to the realms of the living. In seeking to purge opera of elements unnecessary to the dramatic action, Gluck wrote (as conductor John Eliot Gardiner puts it) ‘music of extraordinary purity, directness and concision’.

Review – Alcina (Semper Oper, Saturday 19 March 2016) Alcina – Heidi Stober Ruggiero – Serena Malfi Bradamante – Angélique Noldus Morgana – Veronica Cangemi Oronte – Simeon Esper Melisso – Sebastian Wartig Oberto – Elias Madler Director – Jan Philipp Gloger Dramaturgy – Sophie Becker Stage Designer – Ben Baur Costumes – Karin Jud Lighting – Fabio Antoci Sächsiche Staatskapelle Dresden Christopher Moulds (Conductor) While the previous evening’s Giulio Cesare was let down by a weak production and some critical miscasting that didn’t do justice to either the music or the lead, this Alcina was deliberately disfigured. I am not against modern productions, and can find RegieTheater and its ilk interesting and thought provoking but what director Jan Philipp Gloger did was akin to vandalism. Alcina is a ‘fantastical’ opera – magic, demons, transformation – in which the very […]
