In the English capital he met again a former pupil of his father’s: the viola da gamba player and composer Karl Friedrich Abel. It was for the latter’s father, Christian Ferdinand Abel, a member of the Coethen orchestra, that Johann Sebastian had composed his Suites for unaccompanied cello. In London Johann Christian joined forces with the son, Karl Friedrich, and founded a concert society. They were joint directors from 1764 to 1781, and Abel continued for a while after Johann Christian’s death. They gave a concert every week and, as Burney tells us, "as their own compositions were new and excellent, and the best performers of all kinds, which our capital could supply, enlisted under their banners, this concert was better patronised and longer supported than perhaps any one had ever been in this country; having continued for full twenty years with uninterrupted prosperity.’ Johann Christian was among the first to play the pianoforte publicly in London (June 2, 1768). He and Abel thus presented themselves as performers and composers at the same time. When the eight-year-old Mozart arrived in London in 1764 he found Johann Christian concert director, harpsichord teacher to Queen Charlotte, accompanist to the King (who, like Frederick the Great, played the flute), and music master to the royal children. Mozart listened with all his ears to the new compositions of the two German masters who were then setting the tone of English musical taste, and even copied some of them out. (It is known that the Symphony in E flat major, K. 18, formerly attributed to Mozart, is actually by Abel.) Several sets of works have come down to us in which Johann Christian employs wind instruments, sometimes alone and sometimes in combination with strings. Opus 11 — six quintets for flute, oboe, violin, viola, and bass — was published by Welcker in London about 1776. The Quintet in D major, Op. 22 has the same instrumentation. Other works include a Quintet in F major for oboe, violin, viola, cello, and harpsichord, four wind quintets published in Dublin after the composer’s death and known as Military Pieces, and six Sinfonias for two clarinets, two horns, and bassoon usually regarded nowadays as arrangements. Mrs. Papendieck’s diary recounts an episode in Johann Christian’s life about 1776. "John Bach’ was in the habit of playing every Thursday at her house with the Queen’s chamber musicians, and he and Abel would take turns to compose something for these gatherings. One day, having forgotten that it was his turn, Johann Christian sat down before dinner and composed "a ravishing first movement for a quintet in E flat major"; two copyists wrote out the parts at his dictation as the work proceeded. This was the origin of the fourth Quintet of Opus 11. The completed set was dedicated to Karl Theodor, Elector Palatine at Mannheim, where Johann Christian had enjoyed a real triumph with his Temistocles in 1772, and where he presented Lucio Silla in 1776. The dedication of the Quintets read as follows: "Your Highness’s benevolent approval of my efforts at Mannheim has given me infinite satisfaction. Music and the fine arts, supported by your favor and guided by your taste and the thoughtful strength of your judgment, flourish there with unsurpassed vigor. Your Highness’s new command gives me the greatest joy. I am also eager to offer Your Highness this modest token of my constant gratitude for the consideration you have been pleased to accord me.”
Rossini Barber Petya Ivanova Sofia National Opera 1816 1955 1965 1974 1999
~The "Glass Shatterers!" series focuses on sopranos who sustain High F, or sing higher. THE SONGBIRD: Petia Ivanova [Петя Иванова] is a Bulgarian soprano who began singing in high school, where she was nicknamed the "nightingale." She entered the Sofia Academy of Music when she was 16, and studied with Ludmila Prokopova. At the Sofia National Opera she did minor roles such as the Page in "Rigoletto" until being cast as Rosina in 1955, which launched her as a leading coloratura soprano in Bulgaria for over two decades. Ivanova also toured in operas and concerts to Denmark, Norway, Finland, Greece, Russia, Hungary, Romania, Germany, and Cuba. [NOTE: Ivanova should not be confused with another Bulgarian coloratura soprano named Petya Ivanova who was born in 1974, graduated from the Sofia Academy in 1999, and currently sings primarily with the Slovene Opera in Maribor. And she happens to have a rendition of "Una voca poco fa" on YouTube with a sustained High F.] THE MUSIC: Rossini's "The Barber of Seville" is one of the most popular operas in the world and has been since soon after its premiere in Rome in 1816. It is based on the first of three plays by Pierre Beaumarchais about Figaro, the sly barber in the title. The music of the opera is believed to have been composed in about three weeks. This showy aria "Una voce poco fa" introduces the clever character of Rosina in Act One and has become a touchstone for florid sopranos and mezzos.
