Rossini Concert Tickets

Gioachino Antonio Rossini [1] (February 29, 1792 – November 13, 1868) was a popular Italian composer who created 39 operas as well as sacred music and chamber music. His best known works include Il barbiere di Siviglia (The Barber of Seville), La Cenerentola and Guillaume Tell (William Tell). A tendency for inspired, songlike melodies is evident throughout his scores, which led to the nickname "The Italian Mozart.

This second volume of the Prague Sinfonia's collected edition of Rossini's operatic overtures (plus the odd related work) continues the good work of the first, though with the same limitations. The playing is clean and efficient, well balanced and nicely paced, though the performances rarely rise to the truly inspired...

Alex Penda: her Semiramide is 'thrillingly sung, and the most complex characterisation of the role on disc'. Photograph: Mat Hennek First performed in Venice in 1823, Rossini's Semiramide was once famously called the last and most beautiful of the great baroque operas. The description is in some respects inaccurate: later Italian composers looked back to it on occasion, and Verdi's Aida unquestionably owes something to its monumentality...

Rossini's "Petite Messe Solennelle," that choral masterpiece of the composer's old age, is overshadowed by his operatic works only because - well, because the operas are what he's known for. But this score, in all its dramatic fervor and intensity, is a match for the Verdi Requiem and should certainly be heard as often. Conductor Antonio Pappano, whose 2010 recording of the "Stabat Mater" is a benchmark for Rossini's choral music, comes close to repeating that feat here...

Julia Lezhneva's performances in Liverpool and London last year caused a considerable stir, provoking comments to the effect that the then 20-year-old soprano was destined to become "the great diva of the future". This Rossini recital, with Marc Minkowski and the Sinfonia Varsovia, is her first solo disc, and despite great admiration of her work so far, I confess to doubts about it...

Buy it from Buy the CDGioachino RossiniRossini: Stabat MaterOrchestra dell'Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia/Antonio PappanoEMI Classics2010 Rossini's setting of the medieval hymn depicting Mary's mourning at the foot of the Cross has been dismissed as superficial and flippant, but Pappano's tremendous new recording brings out every ounce of its darkness and force...

Buy it from Buy the CDGioachino RossiniRossini: Stabat MaterOrchestra dell'Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia/Antonio PappanoEMI Classics2010 Rossini's 1842 setting of the Stabat Mater formed a conscious departure from the Pergolesi model, aspiring to drama rather than contemplation. It has long been controversial and subject to charges, by no means fully warranted, of flippancy and operatic popularism...

Rossini's small solemn mass, the last of his Péchés de vieillesse - his sins of old age: a last testament then, the composer bowing his head before God over 30 years after he'd ended his career in opera. Yes, it's solemn - a serious religious work, yet the mass also has the most delightful touches from a man who remained a theatrical composer to the end. But small it isn't- lasting well over an hour, and it wasn't intended for a church, but for a salon in a Paris townhouse.....
