Info zu Donizetti: Messa da Requiem

Donizettis Messa di Requiem, weniger bekannt als die Requiems von Mozart und Verdi, entstand anlässlich des Todes des sizilianischen Komponisten Vincenzo Bellini. Donizetti und Bellini waren gerade in Frankreich, wo sie alte und neue Opern für das lokale Publikum arrangierten, als Bellini überraschend verstarb. Das Werk ist durchzogen von einer tief empfundenen Spiritualität, die Donizettis aufrichtige Bewunderung und die Freundschaft zu Bellini offenbart. Die Uraufführung fand 1870 in Bergamo in der Kirche Santa Maria Maggiore statt, wo Donizetti später auch begraben wurde.

Die Aufführung beim Donizetti Festival 2017 fand in eben dieser Kirche statt. Die Sängerriege um Carmela Remigio und Juan Francisco Gatell begeisterten Publikum und Kritiken.

Corrado Rovaris
is the Music Director of the Opera Philadelphia and Music Director of the Artosphere Festival Orchestra, founded in 2011 by the Walton Arts Center. He also serves as Principal Conductor of the Italian chamber orchestra I Virtuosi Italiani, based in Verona. Celebrated for his vibrant and expressive performances, especially in the bel canto and verismo repertoire, as well as his artistry in bringing new and contemporary works to life, Rovaris engages with his warm presence on the podium.

Maestro Rovaris opens Opera Philadelphia's 2018/19 season with a new production of Lucia di Lammermoor directed by Laurent Pelly, followed by A Midsummer Night's Dream and La bohème. He also conducts the world premiere of Glass Handel, an operatic art installation featuring the music of George Frideric Handel and Philip Glass co-produced by Opera Philadelphia and National Sawdust. An active proponent of new works, Rovaris recently led Opera Philadelphia in the world premiere of Elizabeth Cree, a chamber opera by Pulitzer Prize-winning composer Kevin Puts based on Peter Ackroyd's novel, and the acclaimed Written on Skin by George Benjamin. This season in Europe, he returns to Oviedo Opera to conduct La Clemenza Di Tito and leads the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra in a concert in Munich to celebrate the release of "En Travesti," recorded with mezzo-soprano Anna Bonitatibus.

Born in Bergamo, Italy, Corrado Rovaris graduated from the Conservatory of Milan with degrees in composition, organ, and harpsichord. From 1992 through 1996 he was the Assistant Chorus Master of the Teatro alla Scala and made his debut on the podium with Il filosofo di campagna by Galuppi in a production by Associazione Lirica e Concertistica Italiana. He was subsequently invited to conduct at the Teatro Comunale in Florence and at the Rossini Opera Festival. Soon after, he began appearing as a regular guest in many of the major Italian opera houses such as La Scala, Maggio Musicale Fiorentino, Teatro La Fenice, Teatro dell'Opera di Roma, and Teatro Comunale di Bologna. Internationally he has led productions for the Opéra de Lyon, Opera Monte Carlo, Théâtre Municipal de Lausanne, Oper Köln, Oper Frankfurt, the Garsington Opera Festival, and the Japan Opera Foundation in Tokyo, among others. In symphonic repertoire, he regularly conducts the Orchestra e Coro del Maggio Musicale Fiorentino, the Orchestre de Chambre de Lausanne, the Danish Radio Sinfonietta, the Orchestra de Theatre Royal de la Monnaie (Brussels), Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia (Rome), and Orchestra Sinfonica Giuseppe Verdi (Milan).

In 1999 Rovaris made his U.S. debut with Opera Philadelphia conducting Il Nozze di Figaro. His subsequent collaborations with the company led to his eventual appointment as Opera Philadelphia's first ever music director in the 2004/05 season, a position he has served in since. Elsewhere in North America, maestro Rovaris has conducted Anna Bolena and Roberto Devereux at the Canadian Opera Company, and has frequently led productions at the Santa Fe Opera including Simon Boccanegra, La bohème, L'elisir d'amore, Don Pasquale, and Lucia di Lammermoor. Most recently, Maestro Rovaris returned to the Santa Fe Opera in summer 2018 to conduct L'italiana in Algeri. Other collaborators have included the St. Louis Opera and the Glimmerglass Opera. In October 2008 he conducted the Tucker Gala with the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra, featuring among other guest soloists Susan Graham and Bryn Terfel. He has established a close connection with the Curtis Institute of Music, and since 2009 has led several joint Curtis-Opera Philadelphia productions, including the 2018 production of Bernstein's A Quiet Place.
