Sarà l'avventura
Si spengono le luci e si apre il sipario. Si va in scena: maschere, costumi, scenografie, attori, vite riempiono il palcoscenico. Dietro all'esibizione c'è la mano dell'artista, che come un demiurgo plasma e caratterizza i personaggi che abitano il palco e li guida verso la loro massima espressione. Studiare e incasellare il complesso mosaico della rappresentazione teatrale è invece compito dell'operatore culturale, che crea le condizioni affinché il talento possa esprimersi al meglio. Carlo Fontana ha dedicato la sua vita al teatro. Sin da giovanissimo si è infatti occupato di critica teatrale per poi osservare da vicino, affiancandoli, il mestiere dei più grandi professionisti – da ...

Music in the Theater
Well-known for leading audiences to a new appreciation of Verdi as a subtle and elaborate musical thinker, Pierluigi Petrobelli here turns his attention to the intriguing question of how musical theater works. In this collection of lively, penetrating essays, Petrobelli analyzes specific operas, mainly by Verdi, in terms of historical context, musical organization, and dramaturgical conventions. Originally published in 1994. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
Verdi's Theater
But in the musical drama reality begins to blur, the musical forms lose their excessively neat patterns, and doubt and ambiguity undermine characters and situations, reflecting the crisis of character typical of modernity. Indeed, much of the interest and originality of Verdi's operas lie in his adherence to both these contradictory systems, allowing the composer/dramatist to be simultaneously classical and modern, traditionalist and innovator.
Teatro alla Scala e promozione culturale nel lungo Sessantotto milanese
Questo non è un libro che parla di politica, eppure rispecchia inevitabilmente alcuni momenti chiave della storia politica italiana. La Scala ha infatti attraversato, rappresentato e diversamente reagito a tutti gli episodi più significativi della nostra storia sociale. Al centro di questo studio c’è forse il momento più appariscente: la protesta in piazza della Scala la sera di Sant’Ambrogio del 1968, con il celebre Don Carlos verdiano diretto da Claudio Abbado. Si tratta solo di un evento simbolo di un prolungato problema di gestione del teatro ...

The balance of the book details secondary resources and other works, including general sources, catalogs, correspondence, biographical sources, critical works; production/review sources, singers and theaters, and the individual operas.
Opera Outside the Box
Opera Outside the Box: Notions of Opera in Nineteenth-Century Britain addresses operatic “experiences” outside the opera houses of Britain during the nineteenth century. The essays adopt a variety of perspectives exploring the processes through which opera and ideas about opera were cultivated and disseminated, by examining opera-related matters in publication and performance, in both musical and non-musical genres, outside the traditional approaches to transmission of operatic works and associated concepts. As a group, they exemplify the broad array of questions to be grappled with in seeking to identify commonalities that might shed light in new and imaginative ways on the experiences ...
Verdi
In this third edition of the classic Verdi, renowned authority Julian Budden offers a comprehensive overview of Verdi the man and the artist, tracing his ascent from humble beginnings to the status of a cultural patriarch of the new Italy, whose cause he had done much to promote, and demonstrating the gradual enlargement over the years of his artistic vision. This concise study is an accessible, insightful, and engaging summation of Verdi scholarship, acquainting the non-specialist with the personal details Verdi's life, with the operatic world in which he worked, and with his political ideas, his intellectual vision, and his powerful means of communicating them through his music. In his survey of the music itself, Budden emphasizes the unique character of each work as well as the developing sophistication of Verdi's style. He covers all of the operas, the late religious works, the songs, and the string quartet. A glossary explains even the most obscure operatic terms current in Verdi's time.
