Benjamin Bernheim - Boulevard des Italiens (2022) Music

Posted by Fizzpop at April 7, 2022

Benjamin Bernheim's latest album Boulevard des Italiens documents more than 100 years of Italian opera in France. Music ranging from Spontini's La Vestale to Mascagni's Amica is sung here by the tenor in French, his native tongue. "We wanted to trace the history of French in Paris opera houses through all these Italian composers who had their pieces performed there," Bernheim says. "Between the Opéra Garnier and the Opéra-Comique, this history became music - the Boulevard des Italiens is its setting." The album will be released by Deutsche Grammophon on April 8, 2022. From the beginning of the 19th century until well into the 20th, Paris was the opera capital of Europe. The metropolis attracted Italian composers in particular, because it was cosmopolitan and its townsfolk loved stage singing. Thus, an intensive exchange developed between the French and Italian theatrical traditions.

Benjamin Bernheim, Frédéric Chaslin, Orchestra del Teatro Comunale di Bologna - Boulevard des Italiens (2022) Music

Posted by ArlegZ at July 27, 2022

Documenting more than a hundred years of Italian operatic music in France, Benjamin Bernheim’s new album Boulevard des Italiens. Music stretching from Spontini’s La Vestale to Mascagni’s Amica – all sung in French – receives gold-star treatment from Bernheim, a tenor ideally placed to sing this repertoire in his native language. As he explains, “The aim was really to show the history of the French language in opera houses in Paris by way of these Italian composers who brought their pieces there. With the Opéra Garnier at one end, and the Opéra-Comique at the other, the Boulevard des Italiens is where it all happened.”

Rachele Ferrario - Les italiens. Sette artisti alla conquista di Parigi eBooks & eLearning

Posted by Karabas91 at April 15, 2020

Ci sono periodi storici che, nella memoria collettiva, si legano indissolubilmente a una città. Se il simbolo del Rinascimento è Firenze, degli anni sessanta la swinging London, la Belle Époque per tutti si incarna in Parigi. All'inizio del Novecento è qui che si concentrano gli spiriti più inquieti e creativi del tempo. Tra i suoi boulevard, nei tavoli dei caffè celebri come La Rotonde o La Coupole, nelle gallerie e negli atelier, si possono incrociare Modigliani con l'amata Jeanne, Dalí con il suo formichiere al guinzaglio, Picasso e la sua bande, e ancora Marc Chagall, Max Jacob, Jean Cocteau… Sono anni febbrili, ogni giorno alla Gare de Lyon sbarcano decine di giovani artisti bohémien pieni di ambizioni. Tra questi c'è un gruppo di italiani destinato a lasciare un segno nella storia dell'arte..
