DIDEROT - Les Bijoux indiscrets La favorite, qui possédait au souverain degré le talent si nécessaire et si rare de bien narrer, avait épuisé l'histoire scandaleuse de Banza. Tout allait à merveille ; la Chevalier avait fait oublier la Le Maure, et l'on en était au quatrième acte, lorsque le sultan s'avisa, dans le milieu d'un choeur qui durait trop à son gré et qui avait déjà fait bâiller deux fois la favorite, de tourner sa bague sur toutes les chanteuses.

Marston - Donizetti: La Favorite The plot of La Favorite with its mixture of sex (a king and his mistress) and religion (a novice leaves and returns to the monastery at Compostela) provided ample grounds to offend the exceedingly tender susceptibilities of the various groups of censors active in pre-united Italy. The singers gathered by Pathé Frères in late 1912 to participate in La Favorite, as the sixth entry in their ongoing series of “complete” operas (which they referred to as “Le Théâtre chez soi”), were all established members of either the Opéra or the Opéra-Comique. During the twentieth century, La Favorite’s performance history at the Opéra is not impressive in spite of stellar casting. www.marstonrecords.com /favorite/favorite_liner.htm   (3680 words)

La Perichole Piquillo throws La Périchole down on the steps to the throne when it is time to present her. La Périchole, one of Offenbach's later works, is closer to the typical opéra-comique than his earlier works, and has been performed by many opera companies, including the Metropolitan Opera in New York. La Périchole is a very humorous work, and fortunately for the modern audience, its humor can be appreciated without any knowledge of people or conditions in nineteenth-century France that may have been indirectly satirised. www.geocities.com /jrpsong/per.html   (1225 words)

Marston - Donizetti: La Favorite This recording of La Favorite is particularly significant. Despite the primitive sound on this acoustic recording, this performance must be viewed as a most important historic document since it is the only recording of La Favorite sung in French by singers steeped and trained in the French vocal tradition.

Last check: 2007-10-14) For example the lovely choir of the ladies in waiting in the second scene of the first act can be found later in similar form in the choir of the ladies in waiting in the second act of Verdi's Don Carlos.

Opera Bel Canto, Washington, D.C.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14) The Italian version of Donizetti's French opera La Favorite undeniably has had a flawed text since it was corrupted by 19th century Italian censors. Likewise, the La Favorita of Donizetti's time was not a quick translation of La Favorite. Casa Ricordi merely superimposed a censored Italian translation by Signors Jannetti and Bassi onto La Favorite, excised Donizetti's musical revisions and cut the maestro's new finale entirely, leaving the opera to end most abruptly at Leonora's death, with Fernando shrieking: "e spenta!" (She has died) — a most inept truncation. home.comcast.net /~operabelcanto/favoritaedit.html   (837 words)
