Giacomo Puccini was one of the all time great opera composers andis especially famed for his wonderful, warm-blooded melodies, hiscolourful instrumentations, his compelling dramatics, his musicalfantasy and his power to reflect exotic ambiences in sounds. ForPuccini Highlights, Wil van der Beek has made use of musical materialfrom the tenor aria ‘E lucevan le stelle’ (Tosca), the choral aria ‘Girala cote’ (Turandot) and the soprano aria ‘Un bel di vedremo’ (MadamButterfly). An operatic masterpiece that will go down a storm at anyconcert.

Puccin i wordt geroemd om zijn warmbloedige melodieën, kleurrijke instrumentaties, meeslepende dramatiek en muzikale fantasie. Opvallend veel Puccini-aria’s zijn buiten hun eigenlijke context aantrekkelijk gebleken voor de concertpraktijk.Voor Puccini Highlights heeft Wil van der Beek gebruik gemaakt van muzikaal materiaal uit de tenoraria ‘E lucevan le stelle’ (Tosca), de kooraria ‘Gira la cote’ (Turandot) en de sopraanaria ‘Un bel divedremo’ (Madama Butterfly).

Pu ccini war zweifellos einer der erfolgreichsten italienischen Opernkomponisten aller Zeiten. Viele seiner Arien haben sich auch als beliebte Konzertstücke außerhalb ihres eigentlichen Kontexts bewährt. Für Puccini Highlights verwendete Wil van der Beek musikalisches Material aus der Tenorarie E Lucevan le Stelle aus Tosca, der Chorarie Gira la Cote aus Turandot sowie der Sopranarie Un Bel di Vedremo aus Madama Butterfly.

Gia como Puccini (1858-1924) est, après Verdi, l’un des plus grands représentants de l’opéra italien. Il reste célèbre pour les teintes sublimes de ses mélodies chaleureuses, ses orchestrations colorées, ses drames envo tants, sa créativité musicale et son incroyable capacité délivrer des ambiances exotiques travers des textures sonores.Parmi les classiques des opéras pucciniens, on peut citer Manon Lescaut, La Bohème, Tosca, Madame Butterfly et Turandot. Il est également frappant de constater que de nombreux airs de Puccini, même sortis de leur contexte d’origine, sont parfaitement adaptés une interprétation en concert.Pour réaliser cet arrangement, Wil van derBeek a puisé dans le tissu musical de l’air pour ténor E lucevan le stelle (Tosca), dans le chœur d’opéra Gira la cote! Gira! (Turandot) et dans l’air pour soprano Un bel di vedremo (Madame Butterfly).

Giacomo Puccinis Zusammenarbeit mit den Librettisten Giuseppe Giacosa und Luigi Illica markiert zweifellos den Hohepunkt seines Opernschaffens. Nachdem Puccinis Verleger Ricordi die beiden hoch angesehenen Schriftsteller und Dichter bereits fur das Textbuch von Manon Lescaut ins Spiel gebracht hatte, entwickelte sich in der Folge ein so gegenseitiges Verstandnis der drei Kunstler, dass die gemeinsame Arbeit mehr als zehn Jahre anhielt. Als Fruchte dieser Kooperation entstanden die Opern La Boheme, Tosca und Madame Butterfly, in denen Puccini vollends zu seinem typischen lyrisch-dramatischen Stil fand.

Musikbuch des Jahres bei der Kritikerumfrage der Zeitschrift ,,Opernwelt

Die Opern Giacomo Puccinis rangieren seit mehr als hundert Jahren auf Spitzenpositionen des weltweiten Repertoires: Tosca, Butterfly oder Turandot faszinieren noch heute, ebenso wie die Genialitat der kantablen Erfindung Puccinis.

Das Handbuch bietet Artikel zu allen Werken und Beitrage zur Biografie, zur Politik-, Kultur- und Operngeschichte Italiens und zum transnationalen Einfluss von Puccinis Werk. Neben der Rezeptionsgeschichte bis hin zu gegenwartigen Inszenierungen liegen die Schwerpunkte auf Fragen der Werkentstehung, der Librettisten, der Vers-, Form-, Melodie- und Klangbildungen sowie der Besonderheiten von Musikdramaturgie und Szene. Erstmalig bundelt das Handbuch die Erkenntnisse der internationalen Forschung, die manch vertraut geglaubte Werkfassung und Lebensepisode revidiert.

So zeigt etwa ein wieder entdeckter Kurzfilm aus dem Jahr 1913 Puccini in hauslicher Idylle - und deckt zugleich auf, dass diese Idylle nur eine gespielte war: Der Selbstmord eines Dienstmadchens hatte ihn in die schwerste private Krise seines Ehelebens gesturzt. Wie Biographie, Werkbiographie und Musikdramaturgie zusammenhangen, erschliesst dieses Buch.

Richard Erkens war freier Musikjournalist und Leitender Musikdramaturg sowie Stellvertretender Operndirektor am Theater Lubeck. Zurzeit ist er Wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter an der Musikgeschichtlichen Abteilung des Deutschen Historischen Instituts in Rom.

Puccini had hardly finished his work on 'Tosca' in 1900 and seen its first performances when a new potential opera subject attracted his attention during a theatre visit in London: the play staged was 'Madame Butterfly. Tragedy of a Japanese Woman'. At the beginning of 1904, the musical setting of this subject matter was completed - the work was a failure at the world premiere. Thereupon, Puccini revised it into a three-act version, and it was in this form that the opera about the unhappy Japanese woman began its triumphant progress.Apart from the Italian libretto and the common German translation, this edition contains introductory commentaries of Kurt Pahlen who also adds information on the compositional structure and context to the musical as well as external and internal dramatic action of the opera. A short synopsis and a brief outline of the genesis bring the work into relation with the composer's entire oeuvre and life, thus offering a comprehensive, richly illustrated introduction.

Sandys contributions range from Celtic to French love songs to Stephen Foster, manifesting Sandys gift for chordal subtleties and innovation.Each piece is in either standard tuning EADGBE or Drop D tuning DADGBE .Written in standard notation and tablature with computer generated audio files of each arrangement.
