Artsandentertainment: 'Il Corsaro' lacks magic of Verdi's major works This year, the Verdi and the rarity are one and the same, with Il Corsaro, which is among the three least performed Verdi operas, along with Oberto and Alzira, according to artistic director Victor DeRenzi. Il Corsaro is plainly better than Oberto, Verdi's first opera and a blunt piece of work, done in Sarasota three years ago. Il Corsaro got off to a good start in last Saturday's opening performance, with DeRenzi bringing out the extremes of a prelude that went from rambunctious brass and percussion to delicate strings. www.sptimes.com /2004/03/13/news_pf/Artsandentertainment/_Il_Corsaro__lacks_ma.shtml   (484 words)

Portale Guseppe Verdi Ing | Life and Operas | Il trovatore In the meantime he signed the contract with the Théatre de l'Opéra for Les vêpres siciliennes and attended the performance of La dame aux camélias by Alexandre Dumas fils that gave him the subject for La traviata. Even though the libretto of Il trovatore was already finished, the theatre in which to perform it had not yet been chosen. Il trovatore is the second opera in the "popular trilogy" together with Rigoletto and La traviata. www.giuseppeverdi.it /inglese/page.asp?IDCategoria=162&IDSezione=580&ID=19757   (956 words)

Sound Recording Review-- Verdi: Il Corsaro   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04) Il Corsaro was a product of what Verdi later referred to as his "galley years", the decade after his first successes when he struggled to keep up with a flood of commissions. One of them was for an opera to be produced in London, so he proposed the subject of Byron's romantic poem The Corsair and entrusted the libretto to Piave, who had written I Due Foscari for him, based on Byron's play. The sound from an in-house tape is a bit raw and there is considerable audience participation, but the orchestra and chorus are enthusiastically involved in what they are doing. www.jcarreras.com /articles/1991/arg0991a.stm   (814 words)

De Angelis This is another interesting one - it's the soundtrack from the 1976 movie Il Corsaro Nero (AKA The Black Pirate) directed by Sergio Sollima and starring Kabir Bedi, Carole André, and Mel Ferrer. This was actually the third movie version of Il Corsaro Nero - the previous two being released in 1937 and 1970. After scoring the soundtrack the hit TV series Sandokan, the De Angelis brothers were asked to provide the music for Il Corsaro Nero - starring the two lead actors from Sandokan. www.moviegrooves.com /shop/ilcorsaronerosoundtrack.htm   (226 words)

Though more successful in subsequent stagings, Il corsaro was soon eclipsed by the operas of the noted "trilogy" and fell from the repertory. The full score of Il corsaro, published here for the first time, as well as recent revivals based on pre-publication proofs of this critical edition, reveal the work to be far more rewarding than even Verdi himself would later admit. www.press.uchicago.edu /cgi-bin/hfs.cgi/00/13420.ctl   (225 words)

Sound Recordings Review--Verdi: Il Corsaro   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04) On records the Philips series, generously cast and with Gardelli in charge, educated a whole generation, and the Corsaro appeared in the thick of it. At very least it supported Julian Budden's contention, concluding his authoritative essay in the booklet, that Il corsaro "is not nearly as far down in the canon of Verdi operas as past writers have led us to believe". Then there is the Byronic hero, the sport of destiny, with two dying women on his hands and the angry billows before him. www.jcarreras.com /articles/pre_1990/gra0687a.stm   (367 words)

When these directions are obeyed the opera turns out to be rather better than the critics would have one believe.'Il Corsaro has an interesting semi-autobiographical aspect to it with Corrado representing Verdi, Medora his late first wife Margherita Barezzi and Gulnara his future second wife Giuseppina Strepponi. The opera's prelude is beautiful and well scored.Indeed the orchestration has a new refinement which shows that Verdi benefited from his long sojourn in Paris in 1847 and 1848. www.thingsrooster.com /details/B0009SCVJG.html   (916 words)
