Locke’s List for 2023: Notable Operatic Recordings Plus
[…] gotten a spiffy reading. The work is mostly in German, but some of the arias are in Italian, as was common at the time in Germany (and occasionally in France). Handel’s oft-performed Serse (i.e., Xerxes), entirely Italian, is treated this year to a splendid recording that features two utterly marvelous sopranos, Mary Bevan and Lucy Crowe, under the responsive baton of Harry Bicket. Other Baroque operas that proved entertaining and enlightening were L’Idalma by Bernardo Pasquini (best known for his “cuckoo” piece for organ, gloriously orchestrated by Respighi in the Ancient Airs and Dances), Cavalli’s L’Egisto (featuring two remarkable and distinctive tenors: the lighter Zachary Wilder—a favorite of Boston audiences—and the darker Marc Mauillon), Lully’s Psyché (which is full of colorful details, including music for giants hammering at anvils, two centuries before Wagner, though of course the percussion here is more modest than the actual anvils in the Ring Cycle), […]

Real Diversity 2021
[…] the period. On the other hand, Pietro Mascagni, who died in 1945, was firmly a 19th century composer (Mascagni was born on December 7th of 1863). Joaquin Turina (b. 12/9/1882) was also a conservative composer, but hisguitar pieces remain widely popular. And to add to our already full roster: César Franck, of the Violin sonata fame, was born on December 10th of 1822. A Belgian, he spent most of his productive years in France. Bernardo Pasquini, born December 7th of 1637, was one of the most important Italian keyboard composers between Frescobaldi and Domenico Scarlatti. Last but not least, the great Finnish symphonist Jean Sibelius who was also born this week, on December 9th of 1865. Three centuries, eleven names; we suppose it would be hard to come up with a more diverse group.

Johann Joseph Fux
[…] a collection of study piano pieces familiar to most pianists. Fux’s Gradus is completely a different thing, and we’ll get to it in a minute. Fux was bon in 1660 (the exact date isn’t known) in a village outside of Graz, in Austrian Styria. He probably studied music in Graz, and later served as organist in Ingolstadt, Bavaria. It seems that around that time he visited Italy and was influenced by Arcangelo Corelli and Bernardo Pasquini. Fux moved to Vienna in 1690 and several years later was hired as the court composer to the Emperor Leopold I. Leopold was a music lover, a patron and composer himself: some of his music survives, for example, an ordinary mass titled Missa angeli custodis and the Requiem Mass for his first wife (here on YouTube). Love for music ran in Leopold’s Habsburg family: his father, Ferdinand III, Holy Roman Emperor, was also a […]
