A NIGHT WITH BERNSTEIN
April 06, 2018
Mediterranean Conference Centre, Valletta (MALTA)
Chichester Psalms is a choral work by Leonard Bernstein for boy Treble or countertenor, solo quartet, choir and orchestra. Bernstein stated explicitly in his writing that the part for countertenor may be sung by either a countertenor or a boy soprano, but never by a woman. This was to reinforce the liturgical meaning of the passage sung, perhaps to suggest that the 23rd Psalm, a "Psalm of David" from the Hebrew Bible, was to be heard as if sung by the boy Davidhimself. The text was arranged by Bernstein from the psalms in the original Hebrew.

INGANNO FELICE
September 29, 2017
Teatro Fraschini, Pavia (ITALIA)
"L'inganno felice" is an opera in one act by Gioachino Rossini with a libretto by Giuseppe Maria Foppa. Rossini called his opera a farsa, although as Richard Osborne explains: "Its designation as a farsa is misleading in the light of its semiseria status as a romantic melodrama with buffo elements."
