Giovane Orchestra Sonara

The posters were up in the city today bearing the logo of the Operabarga Festival for the first time this year.

Does this mean that the Operabarga Festival 2008 has officially opened ?
Difficult to know as nobody seems to be 100% sure about festival dates for 2008 and even their press office seems to be working on a “only need to know basis”

Definite information is hard to find (article here) Their program for this year only leaking out two weeks before the first event.

Whatever, this afternoon found the Giovane Orchestra Sonara in the Teatro dei Differenti for a concert of music from Handel, Vivaldi and Gershwin featuring Ana Maria Goldenzwieg on violino, Jonathan Brandani on cembalo and all under the capable baton of the Direttore Paolo Tommasi.

    maybe the festival artists have decided that it’s not the being heard or seen that is important, but the taking part …

    Mike; the information that you have on your operabase.com database http://operabase.com/diary.cgi.....eason=2008
    mentions a World premiere of Andrea Chenna’s work on Gerusalemme liberata on the 27th,28th and 29th July … none of which appears to be on the program that was published last week … ?

    I know :-(( I went with early information in order to have something for the print deadlines for the three opera magazines we supply with listings. (Next year, we wait!). The corrected information will appear at our next site update, perhaps even before the performances take place …

doggybag, poetry and 2 guests are online. Google is crawling the site.
  • Info : Please, resolve the addition below before post any new comment...
  • W. Shakespeare : Lear? Not at all! Those words are lifted from Macbeth's soliloquy:"....L ife's but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more: it is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing."
  • Quentin Compson : Yes, Ma'am. It would be King Lear I believe, an allusion to the fool (and to Lear himself). But there is a more recent connection between Yokapatawpha and the Coldfields with a Biblical reference -- Absalom -- rather than the Shakespearean one to which you allude.
  • poetry : Miss Coldfield, considered poetess laureate of Yoknapatawpha County, may simply be quoting Shakespeare, I do believe.
  • Quentin Compson : Rosa: Stay in your own novel, please. You have no business in The Sound and the Fury, although I appear in both.
  • Quentin Compson : Doggy, May I refer you to three sources on the Action-Theory dialectic? Albert Camus: "To do is to be." Jean-Paul Sartre: "To be is to do." Francis Albert Sinatra; "Do be do be doo." That should answer your question.
  • Rosa Coldfield : ... it is a tale Told by and idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing.
  • doggybag : Quentin - your constant focus on ideas over deeds makes you a highly unreliable commentator- quite often it is difficult to tell which of the actions you are suggesting are mere figments of your imagination and which you really do think should be acted upon.
  • Quentin Compson : Hey, you two ought to get together sometime.
  • Rosa Coldfield : Why of course : )
  • Thomas Sutpen : Miss Rosa knows very well who will merely endure, and who will ultimately prevail
  • Rosa Coldfield : It is not entirely clear, however, who has been sorest lately or with whom ; )
  • Lord Beaconsfield : Welcom back, Barganews, you were sorely missed
  • doggybag : fingers and legs crossed
  • Santi : Thank you for answering my question.
  • Cartier-Bresson : What a wonderful image of the equally wonderful Maestra Paola -- that could be no one else's elegantly gloved hand...
  • Guest_4784 : the girl behind the bar is in the ALTANA rest. just inside the old city
  • message for Santi : Altana
  • Santi : O.K. Which bar is it?
  • doggybag : Hello Santi - no - not the Alpino
  • Santi : Is the daily image of the girl behind the bar is of Alpino?
  • Casey Jones : Summer bus schedule to real station: see Forum Aug 5.
  • aquilotta : Hi Doggybag! sorry haven't been in touch for so long. Love your daily images as always.
  • Guest_3522 : And here I thought there were roadents eating my main board.
  • doggybag : you are welcome Guest_689 ... now if I could just fix the sound streaming system with is doing a serious chipmonk impression on some computers :-)
  • Guest_689 : Dear Mr Braganews Thank you for fixing the webcam
  • Guest_3522 : Scottish emigration to Malaysia ? - see «link»
  • Guest_878 : the most scottish town with the most scottish idiots
  • Guest_3522 : Re: Daily Images 26 July: Let us fervently hope that being "Italy's most Scottish town" doesn't bring more of this UK-style tagging and yobbish hooliganism to Barga. The vandals in question were two young men from Scotland. «link»
  • doggybag : sorry Guest_4772 - the hordes of barganews technicians are working on it day and night -- expect some results shortly :-)
  • Guest_4772 : Please can the web cam with view of sommocolonia be fixed as it makes my day

  • guatemalteco : pou salutare riccardo dell,osteria/ grazie
  • book exchange : 250 new books just added to the barganews book exchange «link»
  • w le piante : la gente non si fida piu' perche' troppi alberi sono stati abbattuti inutilmente, significa che non c'e' rispetto per le piante e quindi per la natura. come mai questi alberi sono sopravvissuti tutti questi anni e improvvisamente si ammalano e diventano pericolosi? forse dovremmo rivedere il modo in cui le piante vengono potate e fare piu' prevenzione?!?
