Jakub Hrůša - Barber: Vanessa: Act I: "Must the winter come so soon?"

Описание: In this week's Sunday Matinee we celebrate Samuel Barber's birthday (9 March, 1910) and present the soprano Act I aria "Must the winter come so soon?" from his opera Vanessa. Featuring Emma Bell in the title role, Jakub Hrůša conducts the London Philharmonic Orchestra in a production from the Glyndebourne Festival 2018, directed by Keith Warner.

It was only his first foray into the genre, but Samuel Barber's Vanessa won the Pulitzer Prize in 1958, the year of its world premiere in New York. The great English conductor Sir Malcolm Sargent once declared it "the most 'operatic' opera ever written by an American".

Without a doubt one of 20th-century opera's most appealing scores, Vanessa abounds in lyricism as the libretto (by fellow opera composer Gian Carlo Menotti) explores a heartbreaking, tangled story of loves past and present.
