Book Synopsis Singers of Italian Opera by : John Rosselli
Download or read book Singers of Italian Opera written by John Rosselli and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1995-03-02 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adelina Patti was the most highly regarded singer in history. She earned nearly $5,000 a night and had her own railway carriage. Yet a minor comic singer would perform for the cost of his food and a pair of shoes to wear on stage. John Rosselli's wide-ranging study introduces all those singers, members of the chorus as well as stars, who have sung Italian opera from 1600 to the twentieth century. Singers are shown slowly emancipating themselves from dependence on great patrons and entering the dangerous freedom of the market. Rosselli also examines the sexist prejudices against the castrati of the eighteenth century and against women singers. Securely rooted in painstaking scholarship and sprinkled with amusing anecdote, this is a book to fascinate and inform opera fans at all levels.

Book Synopsis Italian for the Opera by : Robert Stuart Thomson
Download or read book Italian for the Opera written by Robert Stuart Thomson and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on "operatic" Italian (literary Italian in the classic mode) Parts of speech provide the framework, each of which is illustrated by extracts from many operas. The author works his way from the simple (nouns and articles) to the complex (past subjunctive) and clarifies points of language which non-native speakers often find troublesome: pronunciation, archaic language, convoluted syntax, datives of advantage, nuances and connotation, use of the passato remoto, etc. Included are pages on the sounds of Italian, the meaning of its idioms, the limitations of translations and surtitles, and suggested criteria for evaluating libretti (selections from Verdi's correspondence help to illustrate this section). All translations use the interlinear approach which helps the reader to see connections clearly. Nine quizzes with answers enable the reader to monitor progress. Photos and index included. 152 pp. Visit www.godwinbooks.com to see sample pages and the complete text of the reviews. Thomson's method is similar to the late Nico Castel's but was developed independently. "Italian for the Opera" sold out by 2007 and was reprinted in 2016.
Book Synopsis Parlar Cantando by : Elena Abramov-van Rijk
Download or read book Parlar Cantando written by Elena Abramov-van Rijk and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2009 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a pioneering attempt to explore the fascinating and hardly known realm of reciting poetry in medieval and Renaissance Italy. The study of more than 50 treatises on both music and poetry, as well as other literary sources and documents from the period between 1300 and 1600, highlights above all the practice of parlar cantando («speaking through singing» - the term found in De li contrasti, a fourteenth-century treatise on poetry) as rooted in the art of reciting verses. Situating the practice of parlar cantando in the context of late medieval poetic delivery, the author sheds new light on the origin and history of late Renaissance opera style, which their inventors called stile recitativo, rappresentativo or, exactly, parlar cantando. The deepest roots of the Italian tradition of parlar cantando are thus revealed, and the cultural background of the birth of opera is reinterpreted and revisited from the much broader perspective of what appears to be the most important Italian mode of music making between the age of Dante and Petrarch and the beginning of Italian opera around 1600.
