Pressestimmen
"What a wonderful resource for lovers of La Serenissima. These books give one a terrific sense of the place and its vibrant cutlure. One wants to travel back in time to be a part of it." —Nicholas McGegan, Music Director, Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra
"The phenomenon of Venetian opera in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries, though of great importance both historically and artistically, is still poorly understood. A New Chronology of Venetian Opera is without doubt the most remarkable work on Venetian opera for the period 1660-1760 to appear in many decades. To have arranged in a so homogeneous and coherent a series thousands of pieces of information of such disparate origins is in itself a titanic effort. A New Chronology highlights the conditions that influenced the mechanisms of production, the diverse levels of theatrical genres, and the selection of dramatic subjects." —Lorenzo Bianconi, University of Bologna
"It is a surprising fact that there has been no all-embracing chronology of the Venetian stage, indubitably the princess of all stages, since Wiel's study of 1897. In its wide-ranging remit, A New Chronology takes in most of what is currently known to be available in primary and secondary sources. It also adds a good deal of information not available previously." —Michael Talbot, University of Liverpool
"Many readers will find their needs met by the New Chronology, with its concise introduction to Venice's theatrical seasons and repertory; those wanting full or detailed information on time and its measurement, the definition of the theatrical seasons or the relation between these and Venetian society and customs in general will have to consult Song and Season." —Early Music
Kurzbeschreibung
From 1637 to the middle of the eighteenth century, Venice was the world center for operatic activity. No exact chronology of the Venetian stage during this period has previously existed in any language. This reference work, the culmination of two decades of research throughout Europe, provides a secure ordering of 800 operas and 650 related works from the period 1660 to 1760. Derived from thousands of manuscript news-sheets and other unpublished materials, the Chronology provides a wealth of new information on about 1500 works. Each entry in this production-based survey provides not only perfunctory reference information but also a synopsis of the text, eyewitness accounts, and pointers to surviving musical scores. What emerges, in addition to secure dates, is a profusion of new information about events, personalities, patronage, and the response of opera to changing political and social dynamics. Appendixes and supplements provide basic information in Venetian history for music, drama, and theater scholars who are not specialists in Italian studies.
