Die Vierte 1813 stellte für den 21-jährigen Gioacchino Rossini ein ausgesprochen fruchtbares und erfolgreiches Jahr dar, in dem gleich vier Meisterwerke uraufgeführt wurden: Tancredi, Il Signor Bruschino, L'Italiana in Algeri und Aureliano in Palmira. Letztere gehört nicht nur innerhalb dieser Vierergruppe, sondern überhaupt zu den am wenigsten bekannten Partituren des Komponisten. Tatsächlich erweist sich Aureliano in Palmira musikalisch den Schwesterwerken von 1813 als durchaus ebenbürtig. Die erste Studioproduktion der Oper, verbunden mit der traditionell liebevoll gestalteten Aufmachung bei Opera Rara dürfte die Herzen eines jeden Rossini-Fans sicherlich höher schlagen lassen.
Opera Rara is proud to announce that its new recording of one of Rossini's rarest scores, Aureliano in Palmira.
The dramma serio was written during Rossini's miraculous 21st year (1813), when he produced in total an incredible four operas. The other three (the comedies, Il signor Bruschino and L'italiana in Algeri plus the tragedy Tancredi) indicate not only the fertility of his inventive powers but also the staggering quality of his youthful composition. Rossini fans will recognise the overture to Aureliano, recycled in three other scores, most notably Il barbiere di Siviglia!
The opera is set in 272 AD in the ancient city of Palmyra (modern Syria), where the queen, Zenobia (Catriona Smith), and her lover, the Persian general, Arsace (Silvia Tro Santafé), are defeated in battle by the Roman Emperor Aureliano (Kenneth Tarver). Aureliano agrees to free Arsace if Zenobia will give herself to him but she refuses, Eventually, he is won over by the lovers' devotion, freeing them when they pledge loyalty to Rome. On the way to this happy ending, there is plenty of extreme emotion to fire-up some of Rossini's most exciting vocal writing.
This studio recording, on 3 CDs, comes with Opera Rara's usual lavishly illustrated book, including a complete libretto with an English translation by Jeremy Commons and an article and synopsis by Richard Osborne.
A great success in its day, Aureliano promises to thrill another generation of listeners in this new studio recording under Maurizio Benini!
