OPERA ON THE INTERNET
WITH
DAVE D’AGUANNO
For this
Memorial Day weekend, there is a noticeable absence of operatic
"staples" on the schedule, aside from Wagner's "Flying
Dutchman" which can be heard on Saturday (May 26) in a LIVE
performance from Turin.
Also on
Saturday, there's a broadcast from London's Barbican Theatre of Jake Heggie's
"Dead Man Walking" (premiered in 2000) with Joyce DiDonato in the
leading female role, that of Sister Helen Prejean, who counseled convicted
murderer Joseph De Rocher while he was awaiting execution. For those who
sometimes shy away from contemporary operas for fear of extreme dissonance, it
can be stated with confidence that Heggie's music is basically conservative and
usually appeals to most mainstream opera-lovers.
Also from
London, the Royal Opera House in this case, you can watch the video-stream on
Medici-TV of George Benjamin's new opera "Lessons in Love and
Violence" which has been receiving very positive reviews, as was this
composer's earlier opera "Written on Skin."
One other opera-on-video
worth watching would be the LIVE performance from Munich of Janacek's
"From the House of the Dead" (1930).
Enjoy!
