A 12th-century opera, Ordo Virtutum was originally written in plainchant. This edition features the complete score transcribed in modern notation with bilingual text (Latin and English), as well as a facsimile of the original work. The translation by Dr. Zoltan Paulinyi preserves the musical and prosodic correspondence of the words. This edition also includes stage directions and presents a well-organized vocal register chart for musical production. The Order of Virtues remains one of the most captivating philosophical themes of the last millennium. Saint Hildegard posed the question in an artistically elegant form in this sublime opera, inspiring hundreds of intellectuals, including Saint Thomas Aquinas himself, to seek more complete answers. ARGUMENT. On a battlefield, patriarchs and prophets admire the personified virtues. The Virtues wish to protect three incarnated souls: the Happy, the Unhappy and the Penitent ones. Out of 23 characters and members of the choirs, 18 virtues appear successively. Following the cavalrys customs, the virtues seek to coat the souls with appropriate armour and encourage them to honour their garments fighting against the devil. Each virtue aims to consolidate a leading position in the order of virtues to strengthen the souls at the battlefield, which symbolizes the life. The Penitent Soul converts with the help of the Virtues and struggles against the ancient serpent. The Unhappy Soul, who desisted from the fight, reveals the great Gods miracle when aided after calling for help. The virtues come together to arrest the devil, and to show souls the right path for God. The opera ends by glorifying the magnificent divine wisdom and requesting for God s blessings.

Alessandro Scarlattis (1660-1725) Kompositionen decken alle zu seiner Zeit gangigen Gattungen ab. Hauptsachlich in Rom und Neapel war der aus Sizilien stammende Komponist tatig, und dies mit groem Erfolg. Aber auch an anderen Orten Italiens schatzte man seine Musik, sodass Scarlattis vielfaltiges und weit verbreitetes uvre um 1700 einen pragenden Einfluss auf die musikalische Kultur seines Landes gewann.Der Band prasentiert in methodisch unterschiedlichen Zugangsweisen Scarlattis Schaffen. Dabei richtet sich der Blick nicht nur auf innermusikalische Faktoren, sondern bezieht Auftraggeber, Entstehungssituationen sowie die vielfaltigen Kontakte, die Scarlatti zu Kulturschaffenden pflegte, als konstituierend mit ein. So entfaltet sich ein umfangreiches Panorama seines an der Tradition orientierten, mitunter auch innovativ vorausweisenden kompositorischen Schaffens.

Anécdotas y reflexiones fascinantes de una cantante wagneriana argentina de sangre irlandesa y alma germana que fue amada y aplaudida en Europa. Un aporte a la historia cultural de la segunda mitad del siglo XX y una celebracion del arte como salvacion.Margarita Kenny (Venado Tuerto, Argentina, 1915-2008) fue una cantante de opera que debuto en el Teatro Colon de Buenos Aires en 1943. Al tiempo que se producia el ascenso del coronel Peron al poder, partio a Filadelfia a perfeccionarse y de alli salto a una Europa de posguerra que, conforme ella demostraba su talento, le abrio paso a los escenarios mas prestigiosos de la lirica internacional, especialmente, el de la Opera de Viena, que la aplaudio por veinte años. Mezzosoprano en los inicios de su carrera, soprano dramatica en su consagracion, el repertorio wagneriano fue su marca: decia de si que su sangre era irlandesa, su corazon argentino y su alma germana. Mimada de la nobleza europea en general y de la familia Wittgenstein (era intima de Paul) en particular, antes de dejar la Argentina habia trabajado como periodista en El Hogar y columnista en radio El Mundo. En sus ultimos años confio al musico y escritor Sergio Pangaro sus memorias, en la forma de largas charlas grabadas en casetes, pletoricas de referencias que fue necesario fijar recurriendo a diversas fuentes de epoca. El resultado de ese trabajo monumental y amoroso es este libro unico, que rescata a un personaje fascinante practicamente desconocido por el gran publico, y singular por la multiplicidad de temas que aborda, que, mas alla de lo estrictamente relacionado con la escena musical, lo convierten en un aporte a la historia cultural de la segunda mitad del siglo XX y una celebracion del arte como salvacion.

Cuando la Historia de la ópera analice el final del siglo XX y el comienzo del siglo XXI, todos los nombres que aparecen en este libro tendrán un capítulo especial como representantes de cuatro generaciones entrecruzadas.

En el escenario todos ellos se sienten, en su fortaleza y su fragilidad, autenticamente divos. Pero tambien, desde fuera, figuras como Peter Gelb o Gerard Mortier, verdaderos magos, han sido capaces de transformar, desde su audaz vision de la cultura, un espectaculo como la opera, para que sobreviva en el futuro. A todos ellos los ha conocido de cerca y entrevistado a menudo Jesus Ruiz Mantilla, como cronista musical. Juntos conforman una vision apasionada, lucida y polemica del mundo del arte y de la musica. Todos abordan sus valores y filosofias de la vida, sus carreras, la politica, el amor, ciertas manias, pasiones, excesos y locuras, sus glorias y ocasos Un retrato colectivo donde prima la dimension humana de estos seres divinos que bordean la tragedia y saben tambien reirse de si mismos y de lo que les rodea sin dejar indiferente a nadie.
