«Guarda che bianca luna»: Vincenzo contra Vincenzo

[…] Ora sappiamo che Bellini non è l’autore di questa «romanza», scritta invece da Vincenzo Gabussi, come ha rivelato la recente edizione moderna della raccolta di dodici ariette del compositore bolognese, curata da Emilio Sala.* Essa fa parte di una silloge pubblicata da Ricordi, a Milano, nel 1826, e di cui oggi conosciamo solo tre esemplari, conservati rispettivamente al Conservatorio «G. Verdi» di Milano, alla Biblioteca nazionale marciana di Venezia e alla Bibliothèque musicale de la Ville de Genève.

* VINCENZO GABUSSI, Dodici ariette per Canto e Pianoforte, a cura di Emilio Sala, Londra, Consonarte, 2017, p.VI: «Ma per quanto riguarda le interferenze tra Gabussi e Bellini non se ne può non citare una di tipo “in-volontario”, di cui si è subito accorta Anna Bonitatibus (la madrina di questa benemerita collana [Vox in musica]). Una delle Dodici Ariette di Gabussi (la n. 7, sul famoso testo “Guarda che bianca luna”) è identica a quella – sulle stesse parole – di Bellini».

Non sfigura fra cotanto senno l'oscuro Gabussi con La luna e La protesta d'amore, né il non più frequentato Perucchini, altro testimone di una diffusa civiltà del canto, della poesia intonata nei salotti. Più ancora di Se i sospiri degli amanti, nell'intensità di scrittura del bergamasco colpisce l'intonazione accorata di Odi d'un uom che muore, il medesimo testo noto per un'elegia di Donizetti ma soprattutto per una struggente dedica di Rossini alla seconda moglie (l'Elvira originale vi è, infatti, convertita in Olimpia), tutta giocata su altro, soffuso e minimalista, registro espressivo.

FROM THE WEB/SOCIAL NETWORK Wigmore Hall

25 jan 2018

The turning point for me was the Mercadante cantata, which I did not know. Great job Farnocchia and Scalera, for the mutual communication. We should hear more Mercadante, shouldn’t we?

Best moment of the night was Boni and Farnocchia’s duet in Donizetti’s Il giuramento – their voices work so well together. You could tell they’ve sung together a lot, too, but their tones are wonderfully suited to each other.

High point was Boni’s rendition of Malibran’s Nel cor più non mi sento, which, for those who don’t know, is an excuse for the singer to show off their versatility, as each return of the main tune is done in a different style, from contained pathos to operetta silliness, through trills and octave jumps.

The night ended on an ensemble high with a really well balanced I gondolieri, where we got to hear some of Rossini’s strengths

Anna Bonitatibus in regal form as Queen Semiramide at Wigmore Hall

08/ott/2016

Rating: ★★★★
By Travis Mason for bachtrack, 08 October 2016

Italian mezzo-soprano Anna Bonitatibus is well known as an operatic singer, including a variety of trouser roles, being very much the go-to Cherubino for any star-studded Marriage of Figaro, a part she has made her own. She brought her sense of operatic drama to this Wigmore Hall recital of a programme with which she is touring Europe, namely works inspired by Assyrian Queen Semiramide, who lived and ruled in the 9th century BC. Semiramide founded Babylon and her life and subsequent Greek myths were a source of opera libretti addressed by myriad composers through the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries.

The concert followed a chronological march through many of those composers, ranging from one of the better known, Antonio Caldara (born ~1671) and ending with Manuel García (1775) via a Handel pastiche, a further six near-forgotten composers and two famous ones, Gluck and Rossini. Anna Bonitatibus was joined by the Prague-based Collegium 1704 orchestra, also making their debut at Wigmore Hall, and they played with enthusiasm and obvious pleasure. That their conductor was also the founder of a chamber choir of the same name was evident in his expansive and expressive attention to individual sections, and their dynamic variation. Theirs was quite a dusky sound, complementing the singer’s full and resonant voice, which was quite capable of filling the entire hall with rich harmonics without recourse to excessive vibrato.

Ms Bonitatibus was in terrific form, which was just as well given the demanding programme. In truth, several of the works were from a similar mould and, with 24 hours distance, somewhat indistinguishable; all required the full mezzo range and occasional moments of deep chest voice but mostly fiery, fast coloratura – the sort of repertoire Cecilia Bartoli might sing – launched with gusto, feeling and commitment. She was also perfectly at ease in the temporal trip through the Baroque, Classical and into the bel canto arena, adapting her sense of expression and lyricism to each. A change of evening frock for each set added to the drama of the evening and indeed the sense of moving through time.

The majority of the pieces were unknown in modern times before being unearthed by Bonitatibus a few years ago. I particularly liked that by Ferdinando Bertoni. Rick Jones’s comprehensive programme notes explained that Bertoni followed in Vivaldi’s footsteps as a teacher in Venice and organist of St Mark’s Basilica, and his brief, reprised verses about love’s arrow put the spotlight on the singer’s strong but flexible upper register with supremely confident ornamentation.

For the post-interval programme, the stage became even more crowded as the removal of the harpsichord left room for extra woodwind and horns. Of the two dances by Charles-Simon Catel, attention was commanded by the second as a light but charming balletic interlude from some weighty drama.

The thread of inter-connection was maintained through the whole programme, with a piece from Rossini‘s operatic score – the last one he composed for Italy. García himself had sung the tenor part in London in 1824 and, after all the fireworks, it was García’s quiet lament that brought the concert to a reflective close. Starting with a brief recitative, and subsequently accompanied only by woodwind and horns, it gave Bonitatibus the space to remind us that for all her technical skill, she can enchant an audience with effortless simplicity. Altogether an exhilarating evening of rarities and novelty, sung with full blooded rigour and moments of quiet poignancy.

Rating: ★★★★★

Anna Bonitatibus performed with great intensity at Wigmore Hall.

Po-faced synopses conventionally skate over the fact that most plots in Baroque opera are preposterous, so it was refreshing to find Rick Jones starting his Wigmore Hall programme-note with a cod-historical account of the picaresque doings of Assyrian Queen Sammuramat in ninth-century BCE Babylon. And in the recital which the Italian mezzo Anna Bonitatibus has compiled – from which she’s also made a prize-winning disc – variations on the tale came from eleven 18th-century composers.

Bonitatibus has a voice which, once heard, is never forgotten. This has less to do with its specific qualities than with the vivid intensity with which she invests every role: she’s as boldly dramatic as Cecilia Bartoli, but with none of the affectation. For this outing, in company with Vaclav Luks and his Collegium 1704 Baroque orchestra, her gown-changes – from diaphanous grey, to scarlet, to black, to high-priestess white – reflected the variegated emotional worlds she conjured up.

Spurned love took many forms, each of which she incarnated with Protean ease: with fire and fury in Caldara, darkly flowing melodiousness in Gluck, roller-coaster coloratura in Bertoni, delicate refinement in Rossini, and chaste beauty in Paisiello. She was funny as well as furious, turning some of her numbers into a dance, and proving effortlessly that, when required, she could out-blast in volume the full 22-piece orchestra.

Anna Bonitatibus on terrific form in a programme spanning a century of music about Semiramide

The semi-mythical character of Semiramis (Semiramide), Queen of Assyria, seems to have fascinated opera composers for over 100 years. For her recital at the Wigmore Hall on Wednesday 5 October 2016, Italian mezzo-soprano Anna Bonitatibus gave us a selection of different takes on the character, with the composers ranging from the well-known (Handel, Gluck and Rossini) through the moderately known (Caldara, Vinci, Jommelli and Paisiello) to the unknown (Bertoni, Bianchi, Nasolini, Catel and Garcia). For her journey, Bonitatibus was accompanied by the Czech ensemble, Collegium 1704 conducted by their founder Vaclav Luks.

In fact there were a series of different Semiramides as different librettos concentrated on different aspects of her story, or invented new ones. It wasn't so much the fascination with the historical character as the seductive charm of the mythical Middle East, combined of course with Semiramide's mythical murderous instincts. It could have been a dutiful trawl through some forgotten and rather worthily dull operas, after all not every 18th century opera was really worth reviving. But Bonitatibus brought a vivid sense of theatricality and engagement to each aria, combining a vivid technique with a striking physicality; she certainly is not a singer to just stand and deliver. Though she did use music, she was strikingly engaged with the audience and we had a degree of visual stimulus too. Not just Bonitatibus's highly mobile platform manner, but her four different outfits ensured a striking visual side to the programme.

The programme was played in historical order, so we started with Antonio Caldara (from 1725) and ended with Manuel Garcia (from 1826). Caldara's Semiramide in Ascalona premiered in 1725 and we heard the Introduzione (overture) and Povera navicella. The overture was an attractive Vivaldi-esque piece, followed by a vigorous simile aria with some robust passage-work, to which Bonitatibus added some brilliant ornaments in the Da Capo.

Fuggi dagl'ochi miei comes from Handel's pasticcio Semiramide riconosciuta (from 1733) and is a re-using of an aria by Leonardo Vinci originally written in 1729. Here we had a strikingly dramatic orchestral introduction, followed by an equally dramatic and less showy aria, which allowed Bonitatibus so demonstrate her rich lower register.

Niccolo Jommelli wrote Semiramide riconosciuta in 1741 (using the same Metastasio libretto which Handel had used and which would crop up again in the Gluck and Bertoni operas). Here we had a vivid accompagnato followed by an equally vivid aria which consisted of a fluid sequence of sections and rather reminded me of Jommelli's contemporary Gluck. Having heard Classical Opera's account of Jommelli's Il Vologeso earlier this year, this aria made me interested to hear more.

We had two helpings of Gluck, first a sequence of varied dance movements from his ballet Semiramis of 1765, where we could feel that there was an underlying sense of narrative thanks to the dramatic playing of the ensemble. The opening sinfonia was very recognisable, as Gluck would later re-use it in Iphigenie en Tauride! Then we heard the aria Fuggi dagl'ochi miei from Gluck's version of Metastasio's Semiramide riconosciuta from 1748. Though an earlier work, this still had hints of the later drama which we expect from Gluck.

The first half closed with an aria by Francesco Bertoni, Non so se piu t'accendi comes from his 1767 version of Metastasio's Semiramide riconosciuta. This was a more galant style of music with some fine ornaments, which became quite a showpiece and Bonitatibus included a very striking (over the top?) cadenza. Here as elsewhere, she really threw herself into the music, creating virtuoso, bravura, drama.

The second half opened with the sinfonia from Francesco Bianchi's 1790 opera La vendetta di Nino (a Semiramide opera despite its name). This was an attractively sturm und drang sort of piece, over which the spirit of Mozart seemed to hover. Paisiello's Serbo in seno il cor piagato, from his 1772 opera La Semiramide in villa, was a delight to encounter. Again the spirit of Mozart was invoked in the vocal writing which was touching, yet not uncomplicated.

Serbo Nasolini's Deh sospendi a'pianti miei... Serbo ancora un'alma altera from his 1792 opera La morte di Semiramide started off with a remarkable sequence of accompanied recitative (in dialogue with chorus, represented only by instruments in this performance) which led to a highly serious aria. The whole was full of vivid interest, especially as the vocal writing seemed to provide some remarkable pre-echoes of Rossini [in fact it was by Rossini, see the Update below]. This is not as strange as it might seem, as Nasolini's opera had quite an after life, being performed right up to 1815, a sign of the way opera was changing.

Charles-Simon Catel's opera Semiramis from 1802, was represented by a pair of dances the first of which was intriguingly varied, and the second rather perky with hints towards the later 19th century.

The most famous, and last major opera on the subject of Semiramide is of course Rossini's 1823 version. Here we had the best known aria, Bel raggio lusinghier, in a terrific performance where Bonitatibus combined strong tone with fine control of the fioriture. But this was not the end, we heard an aria from the opera Semiramis by Manuel Garcia, the father of Maria Malibran. This was rather an intense prayer, beautifully done.

The substantial programme was ecstatically received, and Bonitatibus treated us to two further arias. First of all something from Semiramide by the great castrato, Girolamo Crescentini, and then something from Nicola Porpora's Semiramide regina dell'Assiria. Both were extremely impressive in their show-off nature, but the latter was great fun too!

The recital was based on Bonitatibus's 2015 Gramophone Award winning disc, but this was much more than a simple concert of the CD. It was terrifically engaging recital, and Bonitatibus really brought the sometimes unknown music to life. She took quite a vigorous approach to everything, and whilst there was an element uniformity to her approach, the sheer vividness of her performances captured you. She was well supported by Vaclav Luks and Collegium 1704, with an ensemble which went from simple strings and continuo to the full orchestra with horns required by Rossini. Collegium 1704 may not have played with the most brilliant sense of burnished tone but they brought a characterful vividness to the playing.

Update: I heard from Anna Bonitatibus that in fact the scena from Nasolini's La morte di Semiramide was from the 1815 performance in Naples, where the soprano was Isabella Colbran. The scena used music by Nasolini and Marcos Portugal, to which Colbran asked the young Rossini to 'fix' the ending and Rossini took a section from his Cambiale di Matrimonio. You can read more about it at the Consonarte.com website where the music from the recital is available. The website also explains that the version of Bel raggio lusinghier from Rossini's Semiramide was reconstructed from the original manuscript.

We invite you to explore our already completed material – and those currently in the works – presented to you in the different sections of our site.

Enjoy surfing!
