Malin Hartelius Margarethe Bence William Christie Vienna State Opera 1768 1966 1989 1991 1992 1997 2006
THE SONGBIRD: Born in 1966 in Malmo, Malin Hartelius studied music in Vienna with soprano Margarethe Bence. In 1989, she became a member of the Vienna State Opera Studio, appearing as Celia (Lucio Silla) and Papagena. in 1991 she became a member of the Zürich Opera and sang Pamina, Adele, Blonde, and Ännchen. Her Salzburg debut in 1992 was Barbarina; she returned in 1997 as Blonde. In Paris, Hartelius sang "Les Indes galantes" with William Christie, and Servilia and Adele. She was Konstanze in Zurich, Zerlina at Glyndebourne, and Susanna at the Aix-en-Provence Festival. Further engagements in leading high soprano roles in prestigious venues in Europe have followed. THE MUSIC: "La finta semplice" K. 51 (46a) is an opera buffa composed in 1768 by a 12-year-old Mozart while he and his father Leopold were spending the year in Vienna. Due to court intrigues it was not performed there, but premiered in Salzburg the following year. After that, it was over 200 years until another staged performance, in Salzburg in 2006. The leading soprano role of Rosina has the exquisite aria, "Amoretti, che ascosi qui siete," that was described by one music critic (rightly, I’d argue) as having a "nobility of utterance" and "achieving the expressive intensity of the later Mozart." Which is certainly the case in this stunning floated rendition by Hartelius.
François Clément Théodore Dubois Auguste Wiegand Wiegand 1837 1893 1924 2021
For Pentecost 13, 2021 François Clément Théodore Dubois (1837 –1924) was a Paris-based composer, organist (including at La Madeleine) and music teacher, born on 24th August - an anniversary two days after this Sunday’s service. Like so many of his eminent 19th and 20th century colleagues, he was organist at La Madeleine for several years. His book of ‘Twelve New Pieces for Organ’ was published in 1893; this ebullient March was the final piece in the collection, and was dedicated to the then hugely successful Sydney organist Auguste Wiegand. Little of Dubois’s music is performed nowadays except some of his organ repertoire: his Toccata and ‘March of the three Kings’ remain very popular.
