Poland

We invite you to listen to the rebroadcast of the MOZART DA CAMERA / Pasiecznik - Gierlach concert performed by the outstanding soloists of the Polish Royal Opera - Olga Pasiecznik and Robert Gierlach, accompanied by the musicians of the Polish Royal Opera Orchestra.

 Mozart's operas are full of works that sound great also outside the stage context.  They certainly include spectacular arias and duets of the main characters.  The Viennese was famous for his ability to shape psychological portraits of characters using musical means.  And without knowing the libretto, the listener will notice the variety of emotions and feelings enchanted in the sounds of the parts of Susanna, Figaro or Count Almaviva.  He is intrigued by the many faces of the insidious seducer - Don Giovanni.  Also, the sound of love dialogues is always adapted to the character of the character.  Is it possible to remain indifferent to the light and joyful, but so touching "bird" duo of Papagena and Papagena?  Although the selected arias and duets will sound during the concert without a natural operatic entourage, the listener will certainly find their balance and universal beauty, as well as a whole range of contexts and meanings.  Especially that the works will be performed by high-class artists - Olga Pasiecznik and Robert Gierlach with the accompaniment of musicians of the Polish Royal Opera Orchestra.  The intimate arrangements, prepared by Adam Mazurek and Rafał Kłoczka, fit perfectly into the rich tradition of developing Mozart's works.

“[…] I watched with great pleasure all those people hopping happily to the music of my Figaro , transformed into pleasant contradances and allemandes. Here, they talk about nothing else but Figaro . Figaro is played, sung, hummed, and whistled everywhere. No other opera arouses so much interest as Figaro , nothing but Figaro . For me, it is really a great honour!” – wrote Mozart from Prague in his letter dated 15 January 1787 addressed to his friend Gottfried von Jacquin in Vienna. We know, moreover, that the Prague premiere of Don Giovanni was similarly warmly received by the audience.

Mozart’s operas are full of parts that sound wonderfully also outside the scenic context. Here we can certainly include the signature arias and duets of the main protagonists, as Mozart was famous for his skill of shaping psychological portraits of his characters with music. Even those who do not know the libretto will notice the diversity of feelings and emotions captured in Susanna’s, Figaro’s, or Count Almaviva’s parts. Intriguing are the many faces of the cunning seducer Don Giovanni. Romantic dialogues also always fit the character of a person. How could we remain indifferent to the light and joyful, but so moving, “bird” duet of Papageno and Papagena?

Although the selected arias and duets will be performed without their usual opera entourage, the listener will surely experience their harmony and universal beauty, as well as a whole range of contexts and meanings, especially as the singers are the top-class artists Olga Pasiecznik and Robert Gierlach accompanied by the musicians of the Orchestra of the Polish Royal Opera. Chamber arrangements, prepared by Adam Mazurek and Rafał Kłoczko, are extremely well suited to the rich tradition of how Mozart’s works have been presented – since the times of Mozart himself, as we learn from the cited letter.
