Concertgebouw: Main Hall, Amsterdam The Gospel according to the other Mary Holland Festival |
|
 | ||
| Concertgebouw: Main Hall, Amsterdam, Amsterdam, Netherlands Saturday 8-Jun-13 01:30pm The Gospel according to the other Mary John Adams has proven in his past work that he is not one to shun big themes. Famous for being the composer who added depth to the minimal music of Steve Reich and Philip Glass by allowing romantic gestures and modern techniques, he has dealt with political issues such as terrorism, 9/11, the atomic bomb and the Los Angeles riots. Now Adams is taking the challenge to delve into the greatest story of Western history. He created a
modern passion, centring not on Jesus, but on Mary Magdalene. Through her eyes we witness the suffering of the world and the compassion of man. A poignant and captivating modern passion for our current dark times. Los Angeles première 31st May 2012.

English National Opera Edward Gardner, Conductor Deborah Warner, Director Tom Pye, Set Designer Kim Brandstrup, Choreography John Graham-Hall, Tenor: Gustav von Aschenbach Andrew Shore, Baritone: Voice of Dionysius Tim Mead, Countertenor: Voice of Apollo |
 | ||
| The London Coliseum, St. Martin's Lane, London WC2N 4ES, United Kingdom Friday 14-Jun-13 07:30pm Two unspoken themes run throughout Britten’s much-admired opera: the impossible passion that a troubled writer forms for a fellow hotel guest, and the cholera epidemic which the authorities are all too keen to hush up. In Death in Venice, Britten revisits the subject of corruption of youth and innocence that so fascinated him and delivers a haunting theatrical experience of consummate power.
Deborah Warner’s production of Britten’s final opera celebrates the composer’s centenary year and reaffirms ENO’s position as the world’s leading producer of his operas. This production reunites award-winning director Warner with ENO Music Director Edward Gardner, who returns to Britten following ENO’s productions of Billy Budd (2012) and Peter Grimes (2009), for which his conducting was described as ‘deeply musical’ (Financial Times).
Tickets £16 - £99.Edward Gardner, Conductor Deborah Warner, Director Tom Pye, Set Designer Kim Brandstrup, Choreography John Graham-Hall, Tenor: Gustav von Aschenbach Andrew Shore, Baritone: Voice of Dionysius Tim Mead, Countertenor: Voice of Apollo | ||

| Château de Versailles: Royal Opera House, Paris, Place d’Armes, Entrance at the Gate of Honour, 78000 Paris, France Sunday 16-Jun-13 08:00pm Cecilia Bartoli - Mission: Liaisons Dangereuses It’s the secret history of an unknown composer....In June 2012, between two sumptuous recitals in Versailles (Handel, and Sacrificium) from which the audience emerged enthusiastic and fascinated by the Diva, Cecilia Bartoli mysteriously filmed in the Palace and the park over five days and nights a series of sumptuous airs from the repertoire of opera and sacred music in the company of Diego Fasolis and his extraordinary Barocchisti. Exceptional performances and dizzying feats of interpretation resounded in the Hall of Mirrors thanks to the magic of Cecilia Bartoli… And a shadow made its presence felt there: that of the composer of these magnificent arias, unknown to the general public and whose name had been kept secret even from the musicians who played the scores! This intriguing and splendid project will soon be revealed by Cecilia Bartoli in Versailles after an international tour and the broadcasting of images for the celebrations. Return to the Palace of the team that dreamed up this project, with their principal mission to bowl the audience over and reach its heart, as it always does, but this time after Vivaldi and Handel, by producing a thrilling experience worthy of the celebrated Liaisons Dangereuses!

| The London Coliseum, St. Martin's Lane, London WC2N 4ES, United Kingdom Tuesday 18-Jun-13 07:30pm Two unspoken themes run throughout Britten’s much-admired opera: the impossible passion that a troubled writer forms for a fellow hotel guest, and the cholera epidemic which the authorities are all too keen to hush up. In Death in Venice, Britten revisits the subject of corruption of youth and innocence that so fascinated him and delivers a haunting theatrical experience of consummate power.
Deborah Warner’s production of Britten’s final opera celebrates the composer’s centenary year and reaffirms ENO’s position as the world’s leading producer of his operas. This production reunites award-winning director Warner with ENO Music Director Edward Gardner, who returns to Britten following ENO’s productions of Billy Budd (2012) and Peter Grimes (2009), for which his conducting was described as ‘deeply musical’ (Financial Times).

| Blythburgh Church, Blythburgh, United Kingdom Thursday 20-Jun-13 03:00pm Dowland Songs and Dances Plus Galliards, Pavans, Almands and other instrumental music. Born 450 years ago this year, the great English Renaissance composer John Dowland continues to inspire performers and composers with the expressive intensity of his songs, providing the foundations for some of Britten’s most haunting instrumental works. Yet Dowland’s own music is not all darkly coloured: alongside some of his most famous and melancholy songs, a stellar collective of outstanding Dowland interpreters perform less well-known pieces which find him adapting the dance forms of the day in exquisitely decorated music that is by turns sprightly and stately. | ||

The inspiration for the first half is the 1592 collection of madrigals Il trionfi di Dori; the second half starts and finishes with two of the great chansons by Clément Janequin – his depiction of street life in Paris (Les Cris de Paris) and his musical rendition of the 1515 Battle of Marignano (La Guerre).
