Rare and Forgotten Operas Restored
**
Opera Rara’s mission is to restore, record, perform and promote the lost operatic heritage of the 19th and early 20th centuries.
Opera Rara is a unique combination of opera company, recording label and live operatic archaeologist. We search for neglected operatic masterpieces and restore them to life for contemporary audiences to enjoy. Working with the best singers, conductors, orchestras and musicologists, we are at the cutting edge of the opera world, leading the expansion of the repertoire and encouraging other opera companies to explore new and unknown rediscoveries.
Opera Rara’s Artistic Director Carlo Rizzi was appointed in 2019. Internationally renowned soprano Renée Fleming, who made her opera recording debut with Opera Rara in 1994 in Donizetti’s Rosmonda d’Inghilterra, is our Honorary Artist Patron. In 2022, marking Donizetti’s 225th birthday, we announced Ermonela Jaho and Michael Spyres as Artist Ambassadors.

Berglied "Rings ruht die grüne Alpenhut" | Gaetano Donizetti | Michael Spyres & Carlo Rizzi

Michael Spyres and Carlo Rizzi perform Donizetti's Berglied "Rings ruht die grüne Alpenhut" live in studio as a part of Opera Rara's Donizetti Song Project. One of Opera Rara’s most ambitious projects in its fifty-year history is to record the complete solo songs of Gaetano Donizetti. A handful of these songs have been long known and often performed; many more were listed in specialist catalogues but very rarely if ever performed; others still were completely unknown or thought lost and have now come to light.
Recent research connected with this project has made clear that, in total, Donizetti wrote some 200 solo songs over the course of his thirty-year career. Making modern editions of this vast corpus has been a challenging task: the songs are dispersed in European libraries and beyond, often having been casually given away at the time of composition (typically as a present to the dedicatee).
In their totality, these compositions make a powerful case for Donizetti as a key figure in nineteenth-century domestic music-making: someone whose achievements in this area deserve to be better known; a body of work that, single-handedly, makes a powerful argument for the importance of the Italian “school” in a field long dominated by German and French composers.

I think that her performance here is simply sensational, spectacular. In the role of Semiramide she is not on Joan Sutherland's level, but so what? By the way, this recording won the International Opera Awards and the International Classical Music Awards (ICMA).
Gracias!
Thank you so much. 💎🙏🌞
Please, release this in disc again. It's completely sold out.
We still have a few copies in our shop! Take a look here: opera-rara.com/shopcatalogue/les-martyrs
@@OperaRaraOfficial Do you ship to Brazil?
I’ve usually found programme notes, for live performances and no less for CD sets, to be very interesting indeed.
Beautiful beautiful beautiful! ❤
J'aime bien La Princesse de Trébizonde, une œuvre peu connue d'Offenbach. Merci! 🎉
I listened to this without knowning anything about the story or anything. While listening, I kept feeling somehow the dramatic musical style and musical language... all sounded familiar... and then, of course, it's "Pagliacci". I like "Pagliacci" and was moved by its performances. I also like "ZAZA" and was moved by the drama in the music without even knowing the story. This is certainly a good performance. I'll read the Synopsis afterwards.
So glad you liked it and found another Leoncavallo opera to enjoy! We've also recorded his opera Zingari, which at one time was performed almost as frequently as Pagliacci. You should check it out: czcams.com/video/vW6Mp4hwvNs/video.htmlsi=X6Amxp7JmoicYMIV
Одухотворенность невозможная! Душа радуется! Спасибо огромное!
Does anyone know the name of this piece?
Act III finale!
And such fabulous woodwinds.
How well their voices blend!
Dear Michael, perhaps a duet with Ms Jaho?
Félicitations!!! Votre français est impeccable!!!
Sans doute, mais pourquoi chant-il ‘c’est un’ sans liaison?
I hear similarities to Ghiaurov.
Quite remarkable. A real bass, cultivated tone, free above the staff, legato line. Good luck to you. Remember Jerome Hines and Cesare Siepi debuted at 18.
Absolutely wonderful bass voice in a handsome singer.
Damn, incredible voice bro, 🙏👌
Alcantara and Ayon-Rivas have gorgeous timbres.
Bravo. Absolute gem. Worldclass singing with beautiful voice in such young age. Real joy to listen.
Stunning voice!!!😮
Heaven! ✨
Espérant que votre jambe droite se porte mieux !!( votre radiologue des urgences de St Antoine 😉) superbe voix ❤️👍👏
Bonjour j admire les afficionados qui comprennent rien à la musique ou prattiquer 1heure dans leurs vies Je suis un vocaliste et je trouve leur prestation qui restitue l energie de la partoche le timbre la précision ,laisance, certes c pas Horne ramey mais va reste une présentation plus qu honorable Eh les 'belcantistes ecoutez du hard bop ca vous deridera le fondement Cordialement
now he’s doing Tuvan throat singing?
Did u see him tilt his hips at the high C, it was an almost suggestive.
Fantastisch!
Donizetti copied Berlioz
👍
Assolutamente bellaaaa!!!!
Bellissima!
"navigating my voice" what does that mean? his French is incomprehensible and that stupid falsetto note: has he ever listened to Gedda ... dios mio ...
Grande opera rara!
Mesmerising voice, flawless beauty of sound and elegant Donizetti of course. Thanks!
Thanks for listening!! Glad that you enjoyed this little clip, and we can't wait to share the full recording early next year!
@@OperaRaraOfficial me too! Grandiose project, thanks to Opera Rara the renaissance of this rare chamber music is here. And in such an amazing performance!
Oh, amazing Donizetti;s piece, so intense and dramatic and equally beautiful performance. Thanks, but I need more.
Just lovely
