OPERA ON THE INTERNET
WITH
DAVE D’AGUANNO
Opera2Day
(an opera company based in the Hague) performed the opera "Hamlet" by
Ambroise Thomas in 2018, and it is one of those performances that can be seen
in a FREE video-stream on Friday (September 13), courtesy of OperaVision.
Then on
Saturday, Radio 4 (the Netherlands) will be broadcasting a rather interesting
pairing: Tchaikovsky's (non-vocal) symphonic poem "Francesca da
Rimini" with Rachmaninov's opera of the same name. Both works come to us
from Amsterdam.
And on
Sunday, the birth of one of Poland's most beloved opera composers -- Stanislaw
Moniuszko (born 1819) -- will be celebrated with a LIVE performance from Warsaw
of his opera "Hrabina" ("The Countess") which had its
premiere in 1860. As a side-note, I should mention that even more Moniuszko is
forthcoming with a FREE video-stream, via OperaVision, on Friday, Sept. 20, of
his opera "Halka."
