Download or read book An Interpretive Guide to Operatic Arias written by Martial Singher and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2015-09-22 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A premier singer and master teacher here tells other singers how to get the most from 151 famous arias selected for their popularity or their greatness from 66 operas, ranging in time and style from Christopher Gluck to Carlisle Floyd, from Mozart to Menotti. “The most memorable thrills in an opera singer's life,” according to the author's Introduction, “may easily derive from the great arias in his or her repertoire.” This book continues the work Martial Singher has done, in performances, in concerts, and in master classes and lessons, by drawing attention “not only to precise features of text, notes, and markings but also to psychological motivations and emotional impulses, to laughter and tears, to technical skills, to strokes of genius, and even here and there to variations from the original works that have proved to be fortunate.” For each aria, the author gives the dramatic and musical context, advice about interpretation, and the lyric—with the original language (if it is not English) and an idiomatic American English translation, in parallel columns. The major operatic traditions—French, German, Italian, Russian, and American—are represented, as are the major voice types—soprano, mezzo-soprano, tenor, baritone, bass-baritone, and bass. The dramatic context is not a mere summary of the plot but is a penetrating and often witty personality sketch of an operatic character in the midst of a situation. The musical context is presented with the dramatic situation in a cleverly integrated way. Suggestions about interpretation, often illustrated with musical notation and phonetic symbols, are interspersed among the author's explication of the music and the action. An overview of Martial Singher’s approach—based on fifty years of experience on stage in a hundred roles and in class at four leading conservatories—is presented in his Introduction. As the reader approaches each opera discussed in this book, he or she experiences the feeling of participation in a rehearsal on stage under an urbane though demanding coach and director. The Interpretive Guide will be of value to professional singers as a source of reference or renewed inspiration and a memory refresher, to coaches for checking and broadening personal impressions, to young singers and students for learning, to teachers who have enjoyed less than a half century of experience, and to opera broadcast listeners and telecast viewers who want to understand what goes into the sounds and sights that delight them.
Download or read book Marion de Lorme written by Victor Hugo and published by Jazzybee Verlag. This book was released on 2017 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marion De Lorme the heroine, and Didier the hero, are simple figures, and more like those to be found in the 'Hernani.' Didier is another brother of the Giaour, — mysterious, melancholic, misanthropic. Like Hernani, he is a wanderer on the face of the earth, and has great capacity for suffering. Marion De Lorme is a poetic portrait, no doubt highly flattered, of the fair and fragile beauty who has come down to us from history, leaving her character behind her. Although, as in all of Hugo's plays, the plot is of prime importance, we will say nothing of it here, because it is both hard and unfair to give in a scant sentence or two a sample of the situation for which the playwright has cunningly prepared by all that precedes it.

Download or read book Jacques written by George Sand and published by Prabhat Prakashan. This book was released on 2024-09-24 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plongez dans l'univers passionnant de « Jacques » de George Sand, une œuvre d'une intensité émotionnelle et d'une profondeur psychologique qui explore l'amour, la liberté et la condition humaine. Dans « Jacques », George Sand nous présente l'histoire d'un homme tourmenté par ses idéaux et ses émotions. Jacques, un personnage complexe et mélancolique, est un homme d'honneur qui épouse la jeune Fernande par amour. Cependant, cette union sera marquée par la jalousie, la méfiance et l'incompatibilité des désirs. Sand, avec une sensibilité unique, explore les conflits entre les attentes de la société, les aspirations personnelles et les réalités de l'amour. À travers le parcours de Jacques et Fernande, Sand pose des questions profondes sur la liberté individuelle, les sacrifices imposés par le mariage et la quête d'un amour authentique. Le roman aborde les thèmes de la jalousie destructrice, de l’émancipation des sentiments, et de l'égoïsme déguisé en vertu. Sand, en pionnière de la littérature féministe, brosse ici un portrait poignant des rôles de genre et des contraintes sociales de son époque. Le style de George Sand est à la fois poétique et introspectif, créant une atmosphère à la fois belle et tragique. Elle dépeint les paysages naturels comme un reflet des tourments intérieurs de ses personnages, ajoutant une dimension symbolique à l’histoire. « Jacques » est un roman profondément humain, qui pousse le lecteur à s'interroger sur la nature des relations amoureuses et sur le véritable sens du sacrifice. Avec sa capacité à capturer les subtilités des émotions humaines, George Sand signe ici une œuvre incontournable. « Jacques » est une lecture indispensable pour ceux qui cherchent un roman puissant sur les dilemmes du cœur et de l'âme. N'attendez plus pour découvrir ce chef-d'œuvre émouvant et intellectuellement stimulant.
