Description

[Machine Translation] In June 2017, Verdi's Otello was newly staged at the Royal Opera House for the first time in 30 years. It was a highly acclaimed performance with Jonas Kaufmann in his role debut as the lead role of Otello, and will be performed during the Royal Opera's Japan tour in September of this year. Kaufmann, who sang Otello, one of the most difficult roles for tenors, requiring rich expressiveness, a strong voice, and a wide vocal range from baritone to tenor, showed powerful singing and superb acting ability on par with past great singers such as Vinay, Vickers, and Domingo, and was acclaimed as "the 'Otello singer' who will go down in history. He has been acclaimed as "the 'Otello singer' who has carved his name in history. The Italian baritone Marco Vratogna's Iago, who is currently on the rise, and Maria Agresta's Desdemona, another Italian flower, are also attractive co-starring singers. Warner's effective use of lighting on the dark stage to dramatize Otello's psychology with shadows and light, and Pappano's rich and crisp music-making to reproduce the rich and shaded orchestration of Verdi's late period with no less charm. Pappano's conducting reveals the essence of Verdi's greatest work of his lifetime.

ヴェルディ: 歌劇「オテロ」(全曲) / ヨナス・カウフマン (テノール)、アントニオ・パッパーノ (指揮)

2017年6月、英国ロイヤル・オペラで約30年ぶりに新演出上演されたヴェルディ「オテロ」。主役のオテロにロール・デビューとなるヨナス・カウフマンをむかえ高く評価された公演で、今年9月のロイヤル・オペラの来日公演でも披露される。表現力の豊かさ、声の強靭さとバリトンからテノールまでの声域の広さを要求されるテノールの中でも最大の難役オテロを歌ったカウフマンは、過去の名歌手ヴィナイ、ヴィッカーズ、あるいはドミンゴらに比肩するパワフルな歌唱と見事な演技力を披瀝し、"「オテロ歌い」として歴史に名を刻んだ"と絶賛されている。現在上り調子のイタリアのバリトン、マルコ・ヴラトーニャのイアーゴ、同じくイタリアの名花、マリア・アグレスタのデズデモナなど、共演歌手も魅力的。暗い舞台上で照明を効果的に用い、影と光でオテロの心理をドラマテイックに演出するウォーナーの舞台、豊麗かつメリハリの効いた音楽作りでヴェルディ後期の豊かで陰影のあるオーケストレーションの魅力をこれ以上ないほどに再現するパッパーノの指揮によって、このヴェルディ畢生の大作の本質を明らかにしている。 [演奏] オテロ(ムーア人でヴェネツィア共和国の将軍: ヨナス・カウフマン(テノール)、イアーゴ(オテロの旗手): マルコ・ヴラトーニャ(バリトン)、デスデモナ(オテロの妻): マリア・アグレスタ(ソプラノ)、カッシオ(オテロの副官): フレデリック・アントゥーン(テノール)、エミーリア(イアーゴの妻で、デズデモナの侍女): カイ・リューテル(メッゾ・ソプラノ)、ドデリーゴ(ヴァネツィアの紳士): トーマス・アトキンス(テノール)、ロドヴィーコ(ヴェネツィア共和国の大使): イン・スン・シム(バス)、伝令: トーマス・バーナード(バス)、コヴェント・ガーデン王立歌劇場合唱団[合唱指揮: ウィリアム・スポールディング]、コヴェント・ガーデン王立歌劇場管弦楽団[コンサートマスター: ヴァスコ・ヴァシレフ]、指揮: アントニオ・パッパーノ
