  La Serva Padrona
‘La Serva Padrona’, een twee-akter en intermezzi van Pergolesi’s ‘Il Prigioniero Superbo’ is het enige theaterwerk van Giovanni Battista Pergolesi dat repertoire hield.
La Serva Padrona is de eerste ‘opera buffa’ en was richtinggevend voor deze muziek-dramatische vorm.
Zoals de meeste intermezzi is ook La Serva Padrona gebaseerd op elementen uit de commedia dell’arte.

One of these students was Giovanni Battista Pergolesi, who at the age of 23 wrote a short comic opera, La serva padrona (1733), to serve as an intermezzo (intermezzi were commonly played between the acts of opera seria).
La serva padrona took as its subject current scandal rather than ancient heroism.
Its characters were familiar from Italian commedia dell’arte, improvised comedies that featured stock comic figures such as the wily servant and the gullible old man. Its music was quick and tuneful, yet substantial.

 La Serva Padrona
La Serva padrona fut traduite en français par Baurans, et jouée sous le nom de La Soubrette maîtresse, puis La Servante maîtresse, à la Foire St-Germain, le 14 août 1754, avec Mme Favart et Rochard, sous la forme d'une coémdie en deux actes, mêlée d'ariettes parodiées de La Serva Padrona.
La Serva padrona, formée de parties récitées et de parties chantées (arias et duos), devint un véritable manifeste lorsqu'elle fut montée à Paris, en 1752, par la compagnie Bambini.
La présence même d'un élève de Ferrucio Soleri, Enrico Maggi, dans le rôle muet du valet Vespone, apporte au spectacle un peu de la lumière, et de la virtuosité, de l'inoubliable Arlecchino goldonien du Piccolo.

Eventually the two pieces were separated, and La Serva Padrona went on to enjoy fame throughout Europe for years after its premiere.
La serva padrona is often seen as the quintessential piece that bridges the gap from the Baroque to the Classical period.

 La Serva Padrona
Les intermezzi étaient conçus comme des parenthèses au sein d'une soirée consacrée à la tragédie, des respirations nécessaires dans la mesure où les situations comiques précédemment présentes à l'intérieur de l'opéra seria en avaient été progressivement évincées.
La présente réédition d'un enregistrement de 1960 nous donne le bonheur d'entendre deux interprètes qui sont aussi bons chanteurs qu'acteurs, pour une version quasi-parfaite de l'ouvrage.
Vivante et astucieuse, la baguette de Renato Fasano n'a pas attendu la vague baroque pour apporter une direction authentique"..."L'enregistrement est un miracle d'équilibre et de fraîcheur"..."Dégourdie, charmeuse et maîtresse femme, napolitaine jusqu'au bour des doigts, diction pointue, voix mutine, la jeune Scotto est le frais trublion de cette farce.

 Giovanni Battista PERGOLESI : La Serva Padrona
Malgré la brièveté désolante de sa vie - il semble avoir souffert d'une malformation physique et de tuberculose -, Pergolesi produit, en six ans à peine, une remarquable quantité de musique pour divers mécènes italiens.
La version niçoise, placée sous la direction de Bezzina, convainc grâce à ses solistes très théâtraux, mais pêche par un orchestre très routinier (BP3730).
La même remarque peut être adressée à la version Czepiel où seul Polidori mérite notre attention (BP3728).

The first work to attract attention was his sacred drama, La Conservatione di San Guglieme d'Aquitania (1731), given its first performance by his fellow students at a Naples monastery.
The serious opera met with some success, but La Serva Padrona was to become the most famous of all intermezzi.
In 1752, a production of La Serva Padrona provoked a pamphlet war between the partisans of French and Italian opera (the "Guerre des Bouffons" or "War of the Bouffons") and led to the founding of French opera comique.

One must admit that one is not really a fan of old recordings re-mastered and released on modern CD and first saw this version of Pergolesi's seminal intermezzo 'La Serva Padrona' with a certain sinking feeling.
Whether the punter in the street, looking for a nice bit of baroque opera, is likely to go for this recording of La Serva Padrona is debateable, but Sesto Bruscantini aficionados, both of them, will probably want to hurry down to the CD shop.

For Pergolesi's "La Serva Padrona" ("The Maid as Mistress"), Alden hauls out his bag of faddish director's tricks, turning a timeless and influential comedy into discombobulated nonsense.
"La Serva Padrona," the source from which the 18th century comic style flourished, should by rights enjoy a similarly light quality, even if its storyline -- about an ambitious maidservant who cajoles and browbeats her employer into marrying her -- can be made to yield a darker tale of social and economic power struggles.
Unfortunately, Alden has framed the whole thing in loony-expressionist mode, with Uberto, the master, cowering in his pajamas and singing into the potted plants while the maid Serpina struts around in her fishnets and casts disturbing shadows on the walls.

Performances of "Gianni Schicchi" and the less-familiar "La Serva Padrona" ("The Servant Mistress") by Giovanni Pergolesi opens Thursday through March 5 at the Strayer-Wood Theatre.
Peroglesi's "La Serva Padrona" depicts the struggle between master and maid for control of the household, and features a three-person cast, baritone Stephen Fish as Uberto, the master, sopranos Sarah Duvel of Cedar Falls and Cindy Shadrick of Waterloo, double-cast as the maid Serpina, and Ben Walter as the silent valet, Vespone.
The music is light and frothy, and the verbal sparring between the master who decides to look for a wife and the maid who thinks it should be her, is highly entertaining, Walden says.
