Der Wandel des moralisch-ethischen Denkens in den Dekaden um 1700 ist eine black box. Denn gedruckte Morallehren und Rechtstheorien dokumentieren vorrangig die etablierten, nicht die neuen, zukunftsweisenden Auffassungen. Darauf, was sich verändert und Menschen bewegt, haben die Zeitgenossen in der Transformationsphase kaum verbalsprachlichen Zugriff. In diesem Dilemma bietet das Musiktheater einen Ausweg an. In der barocken und frühaufklärerischen Oper wurden nicht nur absolutistische Fürsten verherrlicht und politisch-amouröse Intrigen inszeniert. Die Musiktheaterbühne war vor allem auch progressive moralische Anstalt. Hier bildeten sich mit rein dramatischen, impliziten Mitteln neue, visionäre ethische Ideen aus und wurden einem größeren Publikum vorgestellt. Die Monographie rekonstruiert die damalige Gemengelage aus alten und neuen moralisch-ethischen Anschauungen, wie sie sich im Musiktheater in drei europäischen Kulturzentren manifestiert: Paris/Versailles, Hamburg und London. Sie zeigt, dass an der Neugestaltung der moralisch-ethischen Visionen nicht nur die Librettisten der zu vertonenden Verse, sondern auch die Komponisten ? und zwar mit musikalischen Mitteln ? mitwirkten

In Performing Opera: A Practical Guide for Singers and Directors Michael Ewans provides a detailed and practical workbook to performing many of the most commonly produced operas. Drawing on examples from twenty-four operas ranging in period from Gluck and Mozart to Britten and Tippett, it illustrates exactly how opera functions as dramatic form. Grounded in close analyses of performances of thirty scenes and five whole operas by first-rate singers and celebrated directors, Performing Opera provides readers with an appreciation of the unique challenges and skills required by performers and directors. It will assist them in their own performance and equip them with detailed knowledge of works most commonly featured in the repertoire. In the first part of the book the analysis progresses from scenes in which the singers are silent, via arias and monologues, duets and confrontations, up to ensembles. Wider issues are subsequently addressed: encounters with offstage events, encounters with the numinous, characterization, and the sense of inevitability in tragic opera.

Le opere di Puccini si basano sull?invenzione, senza precedenti, di oggetti sonori che sembrano tratti in modo immediato dalla realtà. Puccini?s soundscape intende ripensare la carriera del compositore e reinterpretare molte delle sue opere maggiori attraverso l?esplorazione delle origini e dei confini del realismo sonoro. Più in generale, s?interroga sulle risposte dei compositori italiani ai mutamenti culturali dell?ascolto, propone un nuovo dialogo tra musicologia e studi sul suono, e un nuovo approccio alla modernità musicale
