Lauren Laverne talks to Ian Wright in an episode first broadcast in 2020.Ian Wright is a former professional footballer and now a football pundit on TV and radio. He began his career at Crystal Palace before moving to Arsenal where he became their highest goal scorer of all time, a record only surpassed eight years later by Thierry Henry.Born to a Jamaican couple in south-east London, Ian grew up with his mother and step-father. His biological father had left the family when Ian was under two years old. Things at home were difficult and Ian spent as much time as possible outside playing football.At his primary school a teacher, Mr Pigden, took him under his wing and Ian would later credit him with changing his life. He left his secondary school at the age of 14 to get a job. Although he took part in trials for many professional football clubs as a teenager, he was never selected. He continued to play for amateur sides. By the age of 21, he had three children to provide for, so when Crystal Palace came calling in 1985, he turned them down three times before accepting a two-week trial, followed by a three-month contract. His football career had finally begun.After impressing as a forward at Palace, he was bought by Arsenal for a record fee in 1991. He was called up to the England squad the same year and would go on to collect 33 caps. He spent his last couple of years in professional football at a number of clubs around the country and in total, he played 581 league games, scoring 387 goals for seven clubs in England and Scotland. Since his retirement from football in 2000, he has had a career as a pundit on both TV and radio.He has eight children and has been happily married to his second wife, Nancy, since 2011.DISC ONE: The Marriage of Figaro: Duettino - Sull'aria by Orchestra of the Deutsche Oper Berlin, composed by Lorenzo Da Ponte and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart DISC TWO: Looking For You by Kirk Franklin DISC THREE: River Deep Mountain High by Ike and Tina Turner DISC FOUR: Redemption Song by Bob Marley & The Wailers DISC FIVE: Mysteries of the World by MSFB DISC SIX: Endlessly by Randy Crawford DISC SEVEN: Crown by Stormzy DISC EIGHT: Just Fine by Mary J BligeBOOK CHOICE: The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime by Mark Haddon LUXURY ITEM: A seven iron golf club and golf balls CASTAWAY'S FAVOURITE: Endlessly by Randy CrawfordPresenter: Lauren Laverne Producer: Cathy Drysdale

Wir springen in dieser Folge ins 18. Jahrhundert. In der nördlich von Venedig gelegenen Stadt Ceneda wird im Jahr 1749 ein Junge geboren, dessen Werdegang ihn u.a. von Venedig, nach Wien, London und schließlich New York führen wird. Dazwischen arbeitet er mit niemand Geringerem als Wolfang Amadé Mozart zusammen. Obwohl dies seinen späteren Ruhm begründen wird, ist es vor allem dieser Werdegang, der Lorenzo Da Ponte zu einem der interessantesten Männer seiner Zeit macht. //Literatur – Rodney Bolt.

Lorenzo Da Ponte va tenir una vida de pel

En la setmana del 268

Entriamo nel mondo di Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart con il capolavoro ’Don Giovanni’, opera sublime in due atti, “dramma giocoso“ come ’Le nozze di Figaro’ e ’Così fan tutte’. L’opera fu composta dal genio austriaco quando aveva 31 anni, sul libretto dell’italiano Lorenzo Da Ponte. Accanto al protagonista - il seduttore Don Giovanni - ruotano personaggi immortali come il buffo servitore Leporello, il Commendatore, Zerlina, Donna Anna, Don Ottavio. Tra le numerose e popolari arie del primo atto, ascoltiamo ’Là ci darem la mano’, eseguita dall’Orchestra dell’Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia, diretta dal maestro Antonio Pappano. Baritono: Gerald Finley (Don Giovanni). Soprano: Patrizia Biccirè (Zerlina).See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Susanna und Figaro wollen heiraten. Graf Almaviva will Sex mit Susanna und beruft sich auf ein „Recht“ der ersten (Hochzeits-)Nacht. Die Gräfin trauert vergangenem Glück nach. Der junge, ziemlich genderfluide Cherubino hat Lust auf alles, und alles drängt sich zusammen an diesem „tollen Tag“. In der ersten ihrer drei epochalen Opernkollaborationen zeigen Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart und Lorenzo Da Ponte, was Menschen mit Menschen machen, ein lustvoll aberwitziges Spiel aus Intrigen und Gegenintrigen und Gegen-Gegenintrigen. Regisseur Evgeny Titov interessiert sich vor allem für die Machtfrage: „Wie weit geht einer, wenn man ihn nicht stoppt?“ Der neue Figaro der Bayerischen Staatsoper ist eine Bühne für ein junges prominentes Mozartensemble um den italienischen Dirigenten und Alte-Musik-Spezialisten Stefano Montanari.

Mozarts Meisteroper über den gefährlichen Frauenhelden aus Sevilla zählt zu seinen faszinierendsten Vokalwerken: 3 Stunden voller Verwechslungen, Tragik und musikalischer Hochspannung. Zur Premiere in Prag kam auch Giacomo Casanova. Von Michael Lohse.

Very few cities have had a relationship with a single person, especially a foreigner, like the city of Prague and its love affair with Mozart. Here's what Lorenzo Da Ponte, Mozart's librettist for some of his greatest operas, said about it: "It is not easy to convey an adequate conception of the enthusiasm of the Bohemians for [Mozart's] music. The pieces which were admired least of all in other countries were regarded by those people as things divine; and, more wonderful still, the great beauties which other nations discovered in the music of that rare genius only after many, many performances, were perfectly appreciated by the Bohemians on the very first evening.” Mozart had been losing his popularity rapidly in Vienna, and so his trips to Prague were a boon to his self-esteem. He wrote in a letter, speaking of Prague's euphoric reaction to his opera the Marriage of Figaro: "here they talk about nothing but Figaro. Nothing is played, sung, or whistled but Figaro. No opera is drawing like Figaro. Nothing, nothing but Figaro. Certainly a great honor for me!" Now whether or not Mozart actually wrote this 38th symphony FOR the city of Prague or not is disputed. It seems as if he finished the symphony before he was invited to come to Prague for the first time. All we know for sure is that the first performance of the piece was definitely in Prague, and it included a couple of details that point to Mozart writing it specifically with both the audience and the musicians of Prague in mind. But the most important thing about this symphony is that it marks the beginning of a late period in Mozart's symphonies that sees him pushing at the bounds of symphonic form in a nearly Beethoven-like way. There is no symphony where that is more true than the one we're going to talk about today, the 38th symphony. The sheer amount of invention alone in the first movement is enough to hold our attention for weeks, but we'll talk about the whole symphony today, from its formal innovations, to its warmth and joy, and to the little clues that make us think that this symphony was a stunning and perhaps unprecedented gift from Mozart to the city that adored him so much. Join us!

Today I talked to Howard Jay Smith about his new novel Meeting Mozart (The Sager Group, 2020). It's 1946, and a young army intelligence officer is awakened early by a gruff priest who needs another tenor for his church service. But Corporal Jake Conegliano has been invited to see a performance of Mozart's Marriage of Figaro, and his ride is leaving soon. The Abbe Luigi Hudal won't take no for an answer, and threatens eternal damnation, until Jake says that he's Jewish, but will be happy to sing in the choir the following week. The priest tells him that having a Jewish heathen in his church would be like bringing Satan himself to his door. As luck would have it, that's the day Jake meets the love of his love and sets in motion a journey to discover both his own history and the history of a famous ancestor, known to history as the librettist, Lorenzo da Ponte. He was a Catholic priest who wrote the librettos for three of Mozart's most beloved operas, and he was also Emmanuel Conegliano, a converso from a Jewish community in Italy. In rich detail, Smith weaves stories from different centuries and countries into the saga of a family that continued to be proud of its Jewishness despite expulsions, antisemitism, royal maneuvering, political intrigue, and wars. And even as the centuries progressed, their love of Mozart's music is a binding force. Howard Jay Smith is an award-winning writer who recently won a John E. Profant Foundation for the Arts, Literature Division Scholarship, The James Buckley Excellence in Writing Award. Smith is a former Bread Loaf Scholar and Washington, D.C. Commission for the Arts Fellow, who taught for many years in the UCLA Extension Writers' Program and has lectured nationally. His articles and photographs have appeared in the Washington Post, the Beethoven Journal, Horizon, the Journal of the Writers Guild of America, and the Ojai Quarterly.

Don Giovanni, K. 527 (Il dissoluto punito, ossia il Don Giovanni, literally The Rake Punished, or Don Giovanni) is an opera in two acts with music by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Italian libretto by Lorenzo Da Ponte. A work based on the legends of Don Juan, fictional libertine and seducer, it was premiered in 1787. Although sometimes classified as comic, it blends comedy, melodrama and supernatural elements. A staple of the standard operatic repertoire, Don Giovanni is one of the most-performed operas worldwide. It has also proved a fruitful subject for writers and philosophers.

Un'aura amorosa del nostro tesoro un dolce ristoro al cor porgerà; al cor che, nutrito da speme, da amore, di un'esca migliore bisogno non ha. Così fan tutte, Lorenzo Da Ponte (1749 - 1838) https://open.spotify.com/track/7hRJOZzfkJxOi19JJFu4Bm?si=RoWao4ejSQ2R4NDhg5i00A&utm_source=copy-link

Sección del programa de Rpa "La radio es mía" que demuestra que la modernidad es algo que viene de antiguo. Emisión del 10/1/2022, decimotercera de la séptima temporada y cuarta dedicada al pionero de la ópera romántica, el cantante y compositor sevillano Manuel del Pópolo Vicente García y a la saga artístico familiar que fundó y dominó el bel canto durante todo el siglo XIX. La semana pasada le dejamos tomando un barco para llevar la ópera a Nueva York. Con una compañía formada por su familia hizo las primeras representaciones profesionales de ópera en EEUU. Estrenó obras propias, las de su amigo Rossini y las de su adorado Mozart. Al estreno americano de Don Giovanni asistió el libretista, Lorenzo Da Ponte, que vivió sus últimos años en América. La segunda de las hijas de García, María Felisa se convirtió en la primera estrella de la ópera americana, pero la futura María Malibrán se casó y abandonó la troupe para no seguir peleándose con su padre. Los García siguieron camino y fueron a llevar la ópera a México. Estuvieron allí dos temporadas de éxito, pero cuando volvían a Europa, unos salteadores de caminos les despojaron de todas sus ganancias. A su regreso a París, García tenía ya la voz muy castigada y se consagró a la enseñanza del canto. Para que sus alumnos practicaran, García compuso cinco óperas de salón en sus últimos años que son un verdadero compendio en el que resume su brillante relación de más de 40 años con la ópera. Muchas de estas óperas, recientemente recuperadas, se pueden encontrar en la página de la Fundación Juan March. https://www.march.es/es/buscador... Manuel García murió en París el 10 de junio de 1832, pero su historia traerá cola en Modernos de otros tiempos, porque la semana que viene continuaremos con sus hijas.

(3:04) The Marriage of Figaro (Le Nozze di Figaro), Cosí fan tutte and Don Giovanni are three of opera's most well-known works. San Francisco Opera's new production of The Marriage of Figaro premiered in 2019, and despite his familiarity with this opera, the production left a profound impact on Company Music Librarian and North Stage Door producer Michael Bragg, who shares his story along with production cast members Nicole Heaston (Countess Almaviva), Michael Sumuel (Figaro) and San Francisco Opera's Director of Diversity, Equity and Community Charles Mc Neal.(14:34) Mozart and Da Ponte never intended for these three operas to become a trilogy. So what the… General Director Matthew Shilvock and Michael Cavanagh, director of the Company's new Mozart-Da Ponte Trilogy—set in an American house across a 300-year timespan, and continuing this season with the premieres of his new productions of Cosi fan tutte (Nov/Dec 2021) and Don Giovanni (June/July 2022)—explain.(24:34) San Francisco Opera Assistant Stage Manager and North Stage Door producer Rachel Garoon has a confession….and gets through it with the help of Dr. Kristi Brown-Montesano, chair of Music History at the Colburn Conservatory of Music and author of “Understanding the Women of Mozart's Operas,” stage director Shawna Lucey, and marriage and family therapist Kathleen Shiltz.(37:02) Did you know that Mozart was one of many composers who borrowed music from other operas for his own shows? San Francisco Opera Public Relations Director (and jazz trumpeter Lee Morgan biographer) Jeffery McMillan take us on a musical quotation treasure hunt.(49:02) How would you have written the end of Don Giovanni? North Stage Door executive producer Molly McBride talks to Bay Area-native Daniel Handler—author of seven novels, including Why We Broke Up, We Are Pirates, All The Dirty Parts and, most recently, Bottle Grove; and who, under the pen name Lemony Snicket, is also responsible for the thirteen-volume A Series of Unfortunate Events—about writing, music, opera, and his relationship with all three.

Description In this minute of classical music history, I'll showcase Mozart's partner in crime, Lorenzo Da Ponte, who was librettist to many in the operatic world at the time, including writing for three of Mozart's greatest works.Fun FactAt the age of 79, Da Ponte became a naturalized U.S. citizen. Five years later, he founded America's first opera house, the New York Opera Company. Unfortunately, it lasted only two seasons due to his lack of business savvy and was promptly disbanded. However, it was the predecessor of the New York Academy of Music and the Metropolitan Opera.About StevenSteven is a Canadian composer living in Toronto. He creates a range of works, with an emphasis on the short-form genre—his muse being to offer the listener both the darker and more satiric shades of human existence.

One of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's greatest operatic achievements, Le nozze di Figaro (The Marriage of Figaro) may not have been possible without the approval of Emperor Joseph II of Austria. The play it was based on by Pierre Beaumarchais was banned from theaters all around the world for its radical political statements and the poor outlook on aristocracy. Fortunately for audiences today, Mozart and his librettist, Lorenzo Da Ponte, managed to cut enough scandalous material to set and stage an opera.

Ian Wright is a former professional footballer and now a football pundit on TV and radio. He began his career at Crystal Palace before moving to Arsenal where he became their highest goal scorer of all time, a record only surpassed eight years later by Thierry Henry. Born to a Jamaican couple in south-east London, Ian grew up with his mother and step-father. His biological father had left the family when Ian was under two years old. Things at home were difficult and Ian spent as much time as possible outside playing football. At his primary school a teacher, Mr Pigden, took him under his wing and Ian would later credit him with changing his life. He left his secondary school at the age of 14 to get a job. Although he took part in trials for many professional football clubs as a teenager, he was never selected. He continued to play for amateur sides. By the age of 21, he had three children to provide for, so when Crystal Palace came calling in 1985, he turned them down three times before accepting a two-week trial, followed by a three-month contract. His football career had finally begun. After impressing as a forward at Palace, he was bought by Arsenal for a record fee in 1991. He was called up to the England squad the same year and would go on to collect 33 caps. He spent his last couple of years in professional football at a number of clubs around the country and in total, he played 581 league games, scoring 387 goals for seven clubs in England and Scotland. Since his retirement from football in 2000, he has had a career as a pundit on both TV and radio. He has eight children and has been happily married to his second wife, Nancy, since 2011.

Die Handlung ist verwirrend und klingt nach turbulenter Liebesfarce. Doch Mozart liefert mit seiner Oper weit mehr als eine muntere Love-Story: Bürger kämpfen gegen den Adel um ihre Rechte. Wie eine Vorahnung der französischen Revolution wirkt Mozarts Oper. Und das mit einer Musik, die zugleich leichtfüßig und komplex ist. (Autor: Mercks)

In April 2019 a new opera with music by the composer Tarik O’Regan had its premiere at Houston Grand Opera. Called “The Phoenix”, it’s based on the life of Lorenzo Da Ponte, best known as Mozart’s librettist. The opera has been years in the making, from Tarik’s first idea to the final rewrites. We follow Tarik through months of creating the music, the orchestrations and the workshop processes with his collaborator, the librettist and director John Caird. From Tarik’s original base in the former Swaziland, now known as eSwatini, to meetings in London and rehearsals in Houston, we hear how the process of working on an opera is a global business and how the music evolves over a long period from first sketches to opening night. This is an updated version of the podcast. We changed the ending because the next podcast will be with the opera star Danielle de Niese, rather than Iris Van Herpen. We’ll get to Iris soon.

The Cagliari Opera House, one of Italy's most renowned opera companies, presented the first modern rendering of the opera in the Rotunda of Columbia's Low Library. In this episode of The Low Down, we take you on a trip to the opera with the works of Lorenzo Da Ponte, the author of Mozart's most important opera librettos, and the first Professor of Italian at Columbia.

For the first time, Sticky Notes tackles opera!  This week, we'll take you through a brief history of the development of Opera up through the time of Mozart, featuring the music of Peri, Monteverdi, Cavalli, and more.  Then we begin a two part exploration of one of the greatest masterpieces of the opera world, Mozart's Cosi Fan Tutte.  This opera pairs some of the most sublime music Mozart ever composed with a thoroughly absurd(and sometimes problematic) plot and text by Lorenzo Da Ponte.  We'll go all the way up through Act I this week and stay tuned for Act II next week!  

On this episode of Opera for Everyone we listen to Cosi Fan Tutte, the third collaboration between composer Wolfgang Amedeus Mozart and Italian librettist Lorenzo Da Ponte. Cosi Fan Tutte overflows with lush Mozart tunes paired with delightful and profound lyrics by Da Ponte. Cosi Fan Tutte premiered in 1790 at the Burgtheater in Vienna. While sometimes considered a charming romp, Cosi Fan Tutte tackles serious issues of gender, class, and evil with a deft touch. We invite you to enjoy this exquisite opera. Hosted by Pat Wright with special guest Greg

Mozart’s third collaboration with librettist Lorenzo Da Ponte, Così fan tutte, takes on an elaborate plot of mistaken identity to explore the nature of love, trust, and infidelity. On today’s episode, we are thrilled to have Dr. Sean Cooper, a frequent presenter for the Mozart Society of America, explore the history, music, and comic complexities of this masterpiece!

In a pre-performance lecture from our archives, stage director Jay Lesenger explores "Le nozze di Figaro," and the connections between Pierre Beaumarchais (who wrote the play on which the opera is based), Lorenzo Da Ponte (who wrote the libretto for the opera), and Mozart (who brought the story to life through music).

Mozart’s comic yet profound look at human nature and one crazy day in a wealthy Spanish household. The Marriage of Figaro, is an opera buffa (comic opera) in four acts composed in 1786 by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, with an Italian libretto written by Lorenzo Da Ponte. The opera's libretto is based on a stage comedy by Pierre Beaumarchais, La folle journée, ou le Mariage de Figaro ("The Mad Day, or The Marriage of Figaro"), which was first performed in 1784. It tells how the servants Figaro and Susanna succeed in getting married, foiling the efforts of their philandering employer Count Almaviva to seduce Susanna and teaching him a lesson in fidelity. The opera is a cornerstone of the repertoire and appears consistently among the top ten in the Operabase list of most frequently performed operas.

Hur påverkar själva livet musikens uttryck? Hur påverkar musiken det liv som utövaren lever? Och hur påverkas sångdiktare och musiker av sina medmänniskors liv? I detta andra program medverkar den mångsidige författaren och librettisten Niklas Rådström, som har ett stort musikintresse och som samarbetat med nutida tonsättare och musiker som Thomas Jennefelt, Daniel Börtz, Bobo Stenson och Eric Ericsons kammarkör. Lyssnar vi på Rådströms romaner och dramer uppstår borduntoner, klangdofter och rytmiska textflöden. Rådström vill ha en närvaro i texten. Berättelsens anslag skall finnas där direkt som i ett musikstycke. När han skriver tänker han snarare efter musikaliska principer än intellektuella. -Jag avundas mina kompisar inom jazzen. De kan spela en låt för 150:e gången, som vore den helt ny. Gräset är daggfuktigt varje varje gång man träder ut i trädgården. Så är det inte att skriva. Texten måste man kämpa med på ett annat sätt. Inget finns öppet I litteraturen såsom i musiken, i improvisationmusiken inte minst, säger Niklas Rådström i programmet där han läser utdrag ur sina två romaner Månens anförvant   och En handfull regn. Romanen Månens anförvant ägnar Rådström åt tonsättaren Mozarts främste librettist, Lorenzo Da Ponte, och hans liv med musik. Da Ponte skrev libretto till Mozarts Don Giovanni, Figaros bröllop och Così fan tutte under en tid då dessa operor provocerade och hade politisk sprängkraft. Da Pontes enastående rika liv i Venedig, Wien, London, Philadelphia och New York vävs i texten ihop med Mozarts eget liv, fast i motsatt kronologisk ordning, som vore romanen ett musikstycke en fuga. I Rådströms pjäs Kvartett ledsagas det sovjetiska angivarsamhället och de mänskliga sveken av Sjostakovitj åttonde stråkkvartett. Alla de fem satserna spelas under pjäsens gång.   Spellista:   Yemandja Angelique Kidjo, sång, m fl Aye Island Records               Mango         74321 16646 2       Sport & Fritid - Lauras aria Thomas Jennefelt, musik.

Here is part 2 of the life and trials of Lorenzo Da Ponte, where we hear about what took Lorenzo from working in Vienna with Mozart to teaching Italian in New York City, and ultimately being buried in Queens near the JFK flight path. Charming…

He set the words for some of Mozart's greatest operas, and his own scandalous habits seem to be worthy of an opera plot. This is the first of two episodes in which we talk about librettist, priest, brothel owner, grocer, Italian professor, and freestyle rapper: Lorenzo Da Ponte

Today’s episode is drawn from a Talking about Opera excerpt, featuring Mozart's "Le Nozze di Figaro" with lecturer Bridget Paolucci. At the time this recording was made, Bridget was a frequent lecturer at the Met Opera Guild, New York City Opera, and regularly appeared on the Met’s Radio Broadcasts. In this episode, Bridget takes us through the rich history of this opera, discussing source material, Mozart's collaboration with librettist Lorenzo Da Ponte, and delving into the layers of musical meaning and style.

Hur påverkar själva livet musikens uttryck? Hur påverkar musiken det liv som utövaren lever? Och hur påverkas sångdiktare och musiker av sina medmänniskors liv? I det andra programmet medverkar den mångsidige författaren och librettisten Niklas Rådström, som har ett mycket stort musikintresse och ofta samarbetar med nutida tonsättare och musiker. Niklas Rådströms romaner och dramer klingar av musik och musikaliska referenser. Hela hans senaste roman Månens anförvant ägnas åt Mozarts librettist Lorenzo Da Ponte och hans liv med musiken i Europa och USA. I Rådströms pjäs Kvartett ledsagas det sovjetiska angivarsamhället och de mänskliga sveken av Sjostakovitj åttonde stråkkvartett. Rådström vill ha en närvaro i texten. Berättelsens anslag skall finnas där direkt som i ett musikstycke. När han skriver tänker han snarare efter musikaliska principer än intellektuella. Manus och produktion: Birgitta Tollan.
