Podcasts about Operetta

Send us Fan MailWhat is the difference between opera and operetta?In this episode of The Classical Music Minute, we explore two closely related forms of musical theatre. Opera is usually larger in scale and often more serious in tone, with music driving the drama from beginning to end. Many operas deal with intense themes such as love, tragedy, power, fate, and betrayal.Operetta, whose name means “little opera,” is generally lighter and more comic. It often includes spoken dialogue, catchy melodies, romantic plots, mistaken identities, and a playful theatrical style.Popularized by composers such as Johann Strauss II and Franz Lehár, operetta became especially fashionable in nineteenth-century Vienna and later influenced the development of musical theatre.In just sixty seconds, discover how opera and operetta are connected, and why one tends to bring the drama while the other brings the sparkle.Fun FactOperetta helped shape the modern musical. Its combination of spoken dialogue, memorable songs, romance, and comedy influenced later stage works on Broadway and in London's West End.About The Classical Music MinuteThe Classical Music Minute is a short podcast exploring fascinating stories, quirky history, and surprising facts from the world of classical music—all in about sixty seconds.Each episode offers a quick and entertaining glimpse into composers, masterpieces, musical traditions, and the curious moments that shaped music history.You can also read the written versions of these episodes on Substack, where they're published as short articles delivered directly to subscribers.About Steven, HostSteven Hobé is a Canadian composer and actor based in Toronto and a member of the Canadian League of Composers.

Luca Ragagnin"I dieci passi di Nick Drake"Miraggi Edizioniwww.miraggiedizioni.itLa breve, imperscrutabile esistenza e l'opera musicale di Nick Drake, raccontata da lui stesso.Il cantautore inglese Nick Drake (1948-1974), autore di soli tre dischi ignorati all'epoca e diventati dei capisaldi del folk-rock britannico, racconta la propria vita con una voce-flusso di coscienza che giunge dall'indistinta terra della post-morte. Da laggiù, Drake ripercorre la sua infanzia, la passione per la musica, l'inadeguatezza nei confronti di tutto ciò che sta al di fuori di una canzone, a partire dai sentimenti e dai legami terreni, la difficoltà di integrarsi e accettare le regole commerciali dell'arte.Questo romanzo delicato e feroce puntella la cronaca della vita di Nick Drake con una voce “ altra ”, che non appartiene a nessuno o forse a tutti i consumatori di opere e che irrompe per dire la sua sulla figura dell'artista assoluto, violento e fragile, e sul ruolo primordiale che ancora gli spetta nella società del futuro. Una voce che procede per rivelazioni oniriche, che prende spunto dall'unico, brevissimo filmato che la posterità ha ricevuto di Drake. Una ripresa muta e sbiadita di una piccola folla che raggiunge il luogo di un festival mai identificato dei primi anni Settanta. Dentro quei dodici secondi si allontana di spalle la sagoma inconfondibile di Nick Drake. Sono appena dieci passi prima di uscire dall'inquadratura. Ma dentro quei dieci passi si raccoglie il futuro a corta scadenza del cantautore e quello di tutti noi che lo ascoltiamo e ringraziamo a distanza di mezzo secolo.Luca Ragagnin incomincia a scrivere racconti e poesie nei primi anni Ottanta e a pubblicare su rivista all'inizio dei Novanta. Nel 1992 il testo teatrale Eclisse del corpo viene rappresentato a Torino e a Bologna presso il Teatro di Leo de Berardinis. Dal 1994 collabora come paroliere con musicisti di varia estrazione. Nel 1995 vince il Premio Montale per la poesia con una silloge inedita, letta nello stesso anno da Vittorio Gassman nel ciclo televisivo «Cammin leggendo» e pubblicata l'anno successivo dall'editore Scheiwiller. Nel 1996 viene invitato al Festival Internazionale di Poesia di Bar, in Montenegro, e un'antologia di sue poesie viene tradotta in serbocroato. Collabora con quotidiani e riviste di vario genere e, dal 1998 al 2003, tiene una rubrica fissa su «Duel», mensile di cinema e cultura dell'immagine. Nel 2007, insieme a Enrico Remmert, adatta per ii teatro il libro Elogio della sbronza consapevole. Lo spettacolo viene portato in tournée in Italia e in Francia da Assemblea Teatro. Nel 2009, sempre con Enrico Remmert, scrive 2984, testo teatrale ispirato a 1984 di George Orwell. Lo spettacolo debutta al Festival delle Scienze di Genova con la regia di Emanuele Conte e la produzione del Teatro della Tosse. Nel 2011 collabora alla stesura di Operetta in nero, testo teatrale scritto e musicato da Andrea Liberovici e scrive, con Michele Di Mauro, Alla fine di un nuovo giorno, spettacolo commissionato da Torino Spiritualità e portato in scena dallo stesso Di Mauro e dal compositore messicano Murcof. Nel 2012 scrive per Lella Costa Elsa Shocking, monologo basato sull'autobiografia di Elsa Schiaparelli Shocking Life, che va in scena il 20 ottobre al Teatro Carignano di Torino. Nel 2014 scrive per Angela Baraldi lo spettacolo The Wedding Singers, che debutta al Teatro della Tosse di Genova, con la regia di Emanuele Conte. Le sue poesie sono tradotte in Francia, Svizzera, Portogallo, Polonia, Romania e Montenegro.È autore di romanzi (Marmo rosso, Arcano 21), racconti (tra gli altri, Pulci e Un amore supremo), testi teatrali (Misfatti unici, Cinque sigilli) e poesie (tra le altre, le raccolte Biopsie e La balbuzie degli oracoli) e testi di canzoni (tra gli altri, per Subsonica, Delta V, Serena Abrami e Antonello Venditti). Con Miraggi ha pubblicato il volume di racconti Musica per Orsi e Teiere; il saggio Capitomboli; insieme ai Totò Zingaro, la trilogia musicale Imperdibili perdenti, composta dai dischi «Il fazzoletto di Robert Johnson», «Salgariprivato» e «Fiodor», di cui è autore di tutti i testi; l'excursus musicale-­narrativo Autoritratto in vinile; e ancora i romanzi Agenzia Pertica, Pontescuro, Il bambino intermittente e I dieci passi di Nick Drake. Nel 2024 ripubblica infine tutte le sue le sillogi poetiche con inediti nel volume Un solco senza seme.www.lucaragagnin.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

Author Marcia Menter discusses her new book, That Voice: In Search of Ann Drummond-Grant, the Singer Who Shaped My Life. Part biography and part memoir, the book details the life of Scottish contralto, Ann Drummond-Grant (known as Drummie) who died during the prime of her career in 1959. Drummie sang lead roles for the D'Oyly Carte Opera Company, a famous Gilbert and Sullivan troupe that toured Great Britain for over a hundred years. Years after Drummie's death, Marcia was a young teen in upstate New York when she discovered Drummie's legendary singing voice. That discovery impacted Marcia so profoundly that she spent years learning (or as she puts it, failing to learn) how to sing.

Welcome everyone to our show! This week we are talking about the history of Mascots! This history is tough to pin down as the definition of 'mascots' has morphed and changed over time. Starting in early Provencal, or Occitan, history it was a term used for a witch. Later changing to a being, or item, that could change your fortune; a good luck charm. It was not until the comic Operetta "La Mascotte" hit the stages of France in 1881 that the word full entered the lexicon of French and English speakers. That Opera also, allowed Macotte's to be humans, and not just tickets or animals. As the word, and idea, made its way to America it began to morph again. Especially superstitious baseball Players took hold of this word and would find other humans, usually children, to be their mascots and bring them luck. Honestly, the history is pretty sad here. If you would like to know more listen in and find out this weird and fascinating history. Thank you Isaac LeSage for the amazing theme music. Find his music wherever you listen.

Operetta is light opera...or opera light. Its goal is to amuse: to be witty, charming, funny, not serious either in style or substance.
