Carl Michael Ziehrer - Nachtschwaermer (Night Owl Waltz)

Ziehrers Nachtschwärmer-Walzer gehört zweifelsohne zu seinen schwungvollsten Kompositionen. Die Einleitung wird eröffnet mit Getrommel und fröhlicher Marschmusik und geht danach über in einen langsamen ¾-Takt. Sogleich erlebt der Zuhörer eine weitere kompositorische Neuerung: Die langsame Walzermelodie in der Einleitung wird vom Orchester mitgesungen. Ein banaler, aber zum Titel des Walzers passender Text: Freunderl, was denkst du denn, wolln wir nach Hause gehn, oder wir bleibn noch hier, bist du dafür? Bis dass der Tag erwacht Und uns die Sonn anlacht, Freunderl, dann geh'n mar zHaus, schlafen uns aus. Nun pfeifen die Sänger die folgende Melodie, bis diese leise zuende geht und nach einer kurzen Verschnaufpause der Hauptwalzer in einem mächtigen Forte einsetzt. Es folgen beschwingte Sequenzen, bis das Stück im vierten Walzerthema einen beispiellosen Höhepunkt erlebt. Zum Schluss, nachdem der Hauptwalzer nochmals erklungen ist, verliert sich das Stück mit einer Reprise des gesungenen Textes in der Stille. ___________________________________ One of my personal favourites. The piece opens with a lovely march theme followed by a short song and whistling before the powerful main theme begins... It's marvellous !!! This is a perfect and exemplary viennese waltz. Including a picture show of nocturnal Vienna.

E. Humperdinck: "Abendsegen" aus der Oper Hänsel und Gretel

Aus der Frauenkirche zu Dresden (2008) Staatskapelle Dresden, Ltg. Christoph Eschenbach Solistinnen: Elina Garanca Anja Harteros Hänsel und Gretel ist eine spätromantische Oper in drei Akten, die in den frühen 1890er Jahren entstand. Die Musik stammt von Engelbert Humperdinck, das Libretto schrieb seine Schwester Adelheid Wette nach dem Märchen Hänsel und Gretel aus den Kinder- und Hausmärchen der Brüder Grimm. Die Werkbezeichnung der Autoren lautet Märchenspiel in drei Bildern, Humperdinck nannte sein Werk in ironischer Anspielung an Richard Wagners Oper Parsifal ein Kinderstubenweihfestspiel. Hänsel und Gretel wurde am 23. Dezember 1893 in Weimar am Hoftheater unter Richard Strauss als Dirigent das erste Mal aufgeführt. Die Oper, die eine Spieldauer von etwa zwei Stunden hat, gehört heute zum häufig gespielten Repertoire von Opernhäusern und wird besonders häufig in der Adventszeit aufgeführt.

CCP's 'The Met Live in HD' returns with iconic Verdi, Puccini operas

 'Der Rosenkavalier' is Richard Strauss’ most popular opera about a wise woman of the world who is involved with a much younger lover.

MANILA, Philippines — The Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP)’s "The Met Live in HD" opera production series returns on stage this March with an impressive lineup of iconic operas for its ninth season.

The opera program of the CCP, which are operas but captured while being staged and shown in cinemas, presents seven classic operas: "Der Rosenkavalier" by Richard Strauss, "Nabucco" by Giuseppe Verdi, "Carmen" by Georges Bizet, "X: The Life and All Times of Malcolm X" by Anthony Davis, "La Forza del Destino" by Giuseppe Verdi, "La Rondine" by Giacomo Puccini and "Dead Man Walking" by Jake Heggie.

Opening the new season on March 5 is "Der Rosenkavalier," Strauss’ most popular opera about a wise woman of the world who is involved with a much younger lover. Forced to accept the laws of time, she gives him up to a pretty young heiress.

First premiered in 1911, set in an idealized Vienna, the tragic opera is a comic yet nostalgic fantasy drama with striking touches of philosophy and social commentary on its libretto written by Viennese author and poet Hugo von Hofmannsthal and sung with a magnificent score by Strauss.

A dream cast assembles for this production, with Soprano Lise Davidsen performing as the aging Marschallin, opposite mezzo-soprano Samantha Hankey as her lover Octavian and soprano Erin Morley as Sophie, the beautiful younger woman who steals his heart. Bass Gunther Groissbock returns as the churlish Baron Ochs and Brian Mulligan is Sophie’s wealthy father, Faninal. Maestro Simone Young takes the Met podium to oversee Robert Carsen’s fin-de-siecle staging.

Next to hit the stage is Giuseppe Verdi’s "Nabucco" on April 2. Ancient Babylon comes to life in this classic Met staging of biblical proportions, Verdi and Temistocle Solera took some liberties with biblical history and created a stirring drama about the fall of ancient Jerusalem at the hands of Nebuchadnezzar (who is Nabucco, for short).

Verdi’s third opera, which had a world premiere in Teatro alla Scala, Milan, in 1842, is known for its exhilarating chorus “Va, pensiero” and titular aria “Dio di Giuda.”

Baritone George Gagnidze makes his Met role debut as the imperious king Nabucco, performing with soprano Liudmyla Monastyrska, who reprises her role as vengeful daughter Abigaille. Mezzo-soprano Maria Barakova and tenor SeokJong Baek take on the roles of Fenena and Ismaele, whose love transcends politics. Bass Dmitry Belosselskiy repeats his celebrated portrayal of the high priest Zaccaria. Daniele Callegari conducts.

Ancient Babylon comes to life in Met's staging of biblical proportions in Giuseppe Verdi’s 'Nabucco.'

Premiering on the Philippine big screen on May 7 is Georges Bizet’s "Carmen." Acclaimed English director Carrie Cracknell makes her Met debut with Bizet’s masterpiece. First premiered in Paris in 1875, the opera talks about a gypsy seductress who lives by her own rules. At the heart of this tragic romantic tale are gendered violence, abusive labor structures and the desire to break through societal boundaries. All these social issues are still relevant today.

One of the most frequently staged operas in the world, this Met opera staging stars dazzling young mezzo-soprano Aigul Akhmetshina in the title role, alongside tenor Piotr Beczala as Carmen’s troubled lover Don José, soprano Angel Blue as the loyal Micaëla and bass-baritone Kyle Ketelsen as the swaggering Escamillo. Daniele Rustioni conducts Bizet’s heart-pounding score.

Anthony Davis’s groundbreaking and influential opera, "X: The Life and Times of Malcolm X" will arrive at the Ayala cinema on June 4. Robert O’Hara, theater luminary and Tony-nominated director of Slave Play, oversees a potent new staging that imagines Malcolm as an Everyman whose story transcends time and space.

An exceptional cast of breakout artists and young Met stars enliven the operatic retelling of the civil rights leader’s life, which premiered in 1986. Baritone Will Liverman, who triumphed in the Met premiere of "Fire Shut Up in My Bones," sings Malcolm X. Soprano Leah Hawkins performs as his mother Louise, while mezzo-soprano Raehann Bryce-Davis as his sister Ella, bass-baritone Michael Sumuel as his brother Reginald, and tenor Victor Ryan Robertson as Nation of Islam leader Elijah Muhammad. Kazem Abdullah conducts the newly revised score, which provides a layered, jazz-inflected setting for the libretto by esteemed writer Thulani Davis.

Catch Yannick Nézet-Séguin’s masterpiece on Verdi’s grand tale of ill-fated love, deadly vendetta and family strife, "La Forza del Destino," on July 2.

Georges Bizet’s 'Carmen' first premiered in Paris in 1875 and talks about a gypsy seductress who lives by her own rules. 

Director Mariusz Trelinski delivers Met’s first new Forza in nearly 30 years, setting the scene in a contemporary world and making extensive use of the theater’s turntable to represent the unstoppable advance of destiny that drives the opera’s chain of calamitous events.

A gripping tale about Leonora, a beautiful daughter of the wealthy Marquis who has fallen in love with a Peruvian nobleman who is deemed unworthy because of his Incan blood. When the couple elopes, an accident happens that kills the protagonist’s father. Leonora’s brother swears to avenge their father’s death. In the ensuing chaos, the lovers become separated.

Stellar soprano Lise Davidsen triumphs with her portrayal of Leonora, one of the repertory’s most tormented yet thrilling heroines. The distinguished cast features tenor Brian Jagde as Leonora’s forbidden beloved Don Alvaro, baritone Igor Golovatenko as her vengeful brother Don Carlo, mezzo-soprano Judit Kutasi as the fortune teller Preziosilla, bass-baritone Patrick Carfizzi as Fra Melitone, and bass Soloman Howard as both Leonora’s father and Padre Guardiano.

Another bittersweet love story makes a rare premiere on August 13 with Puccini’s "La Rondine." It follows the plight of Magda, who falls in love with a handsome young Ruggero, but her unfounded fears about her checkered past somehow ruin their happily-ever-after. Soprano Angel Blue and tenor Jonathan Tetelman portray the star-crossed lovers.

Maestro Speranza Scappucci conducts Nicolas Joël’s Art Deco–inspired staging, which transports audiences from the heart of Parisian nightlife to a dreamy vision of the French Riviera. In their Met debuts, soprano Emily Pogorelc and tenor Bekhzod Davronov complete the sterling cast as Lisette and Prunier.

The 9th season of CCP’s "The Met Live in HD" culminates with American composer Jake Heggie’s masterpiece "Dead Man Walking" on September 3. In the haunting new Met production, Heggie and librettist Terrence McNally bring to life Sister Helen Prejean’s memoir about her fight for the soul of a condemned murderer.

Directed by Ivo van Hove, Met’s most widely performed new opera of the last 20 years stars mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato as Sister Helen. The outstanding cast features bass-baritone Ryan McKinny as the death-row inmate Joseph De Rocher, soprano Latonia Moore as Sister Rose, and legendary mezzo-soprano Susan Graham – who sang as Helen Prejean in the opera’s 2000 premiere – as De Rocher’s mother. Met music director Yannick Nézet-Séguin takes the podium for this landmark opera.

Anthony Davis’s groundbreaking and influential opera, 'X: The Life and Times of Malcolm X.'

All screenings are scheduled at 5:30 p.m. at Ayala Malls Greenbelt 3 Cinema 1 in Makati City. Tickets are priced at P450.
