Attore, regista e produttore, George Clooney ha ormai alle spalle più di vent'anni di successi in televisione e al cinema. Mescolando impegni cinematografici e umanitari - specie quello in Darfur - è riuscito a ritagliarsi un posto speciale sulla scena politica internazionale: prova ne è che viene accolto da Angela Merkel come un capo di stato e Barack Obama e Hillary Clinton si consultano regolarmente con lui. Ha saputo imporsi attirando l'attenzione su situazioni politiche di difficile soluzione, è ascoltato e rispettato. Ma cosa si sa davvero di lui? Quali sono le sue ambizioni? What else, Mister Clooney? La domanda ci porta al di là della mondanità hollywoodiana, alla scoperta dei segreti di una vita. E se il seduttore, fotografato al fianco di tante belle donne, preferisse invece altre compagnie? E se la generosità che ostenta mirasse solo a conquistare le alte sfere politiche, seguendo il sogno di suo padre?

A score illuminated by the magic of instrumental timbres, rich in rhythmic invention and harmonic spells. Since Hänsel and Gretel or L'Enfant et les Sortilèges, we have perhaps not adorned the world of childhood with a more attractive garment.
Mermaids, fairies, pirates, Indians, wild beasts; family disputes, loss of children; nostalgia for looking back at one's past, etc. From reflections on eternal childhood to the most spectacular battles, may this opera – like James Matthew Barrie's tale – open up to all levels of reading.

After his Neapolitan training Gaspare Spontini settled in Paris for a few years, where he was nominated “compositeur particulier de la chambre” of Empress Josephine, Napoleon’s wife. It was indeed Napoleon who, in 1808, commissioned him the opera, Fernand Cortez, ou La conquete du Mexique, of which he attended the 28th November 1809 premiere. The strongly idealized figure of Cortez, presented as a brave, wise and merciful general, predestined to victory, was to be an image of Napoleon. His fight against Spanish “obscurantism” was Cortez’s fight against the cruelty, superstition and dark power intrigues of the Aztec sacerdotal class. Cortez frees the Mexicans from their “evil god”, and only the High Priest refuses his clemency. Like in a piece a sauvetage, at the last moment Montezuma’s niece, Amazily, who had offered her life in exchange of that of her beloved Cortez’s brother Alvar, is rescued. The Mexican chief Telasco promotes the cessation of hostilities: the marriage between Cortez and Amazily sanctions the peace between two peoples.

The sorceress Armide, infatuated with the valiant knight Roland, but desperate for Roland to return her love, tries at all costs to lure him into her arms. At the same time, the courageous Herminie tries to protect Tancrede, Roland's companion, from the dangers that threaten him. Published in 1704, Suite d'Armide ou Jerusalem delivree is as rare as it is unique: in the handwriting of the Regent Philippe d'Orleans, its composition testifies to a certain talent and a refined ear. Leonardo Garcia-Alarcon and Cappella Mediterranea brilliantly restore the little-known genius of the sovereign.
