TEA TIME
Foyer de l'Opera de Marseille
November 19, 2010
More than the Beaujolais Nouveau, this season is always the new crop of CNIPAL , harvested at hearings tight, that fans of opera of Marseille, which is fortunate, alas, now-fragile house of the National Center for Integration of Lyrical Artists, waiting impatiently. First sip tasted with relish these four young singers, Promotional godmother Beatrice Uria-Monzon (CNIPAL of old), three new and old.
Jennifer Michel, has a lovely coloratura soprano, which one feels to win the lyrics because the medium appears strong, agile in the high and mighty, the beautiful vibrato. It is an ironic and spicy Norina in Don Pasquale Donizetti, one of Adina L'Elisir d'Amore betraying his confusion and a sensitive lover of Lauretta Gianni Schicchi , means more bodied. It is also in place in the Russian repertoire, touching Yolanta Tchaikovsky and offers a nostalgic air first and then jubilant, euphoric, tintannibulant of "casseroles" Mussorgsky: nice vocal range and stage presence.
The newcomer is a baritone Peruvian Rudi Fernandez , hot stamp, voluptuous, full voice, powerful and colorful. In these vocal gifts, he joined a sensitivity and a clear sense of the text, dramatic or comic, marvelously: line impeccable Bellini (Riccardo of Puritans ), humor and panache to Dulcamara (sort of Figaro face an Adina / Rosina) by Donizetti, generous voice, although vehemently held Franck of Edgar Puccini's ardent, vibrant treble in superb air from Robert Yolanta .
the piano, Nino Pavlenichvili was a well-deserved standing ovation.
