SUMMARY:IOpera: Rothschild’s Violin 
DESCRIPTION:6 years ago IOpera presented the Australian premiere of a chamber arrangement of Venjamin Fleischmann’s one-act opera\, Rothschild’s Violin (1941)\, completed by Dmitri Shostakovich in (1944)\, based on the short story of the same name by Anton Chekhov. \nOn Sunday 29 September it presents the Australian premiere of the full version for orchestra at Melba Hall\, University of Melbourne. \nThe story centres on one Yakov Matveyevich Ivanov\, nicknamed “Bronze” (sung by Australian baritone Christopher Hillier) who is the coffin maker in a small village\, and also an amateur fiddler in the town’s wedding band\, led by Moses Ilyich (tenor Robert Macfarlane). Obsessed with losses\, both real and imaginary\, and faced with the impending death of his own wife (mezzo-soprano Shakira Dugan)\, he takes out his anger at the world on the band’s Jewish flautist\, Rothschild (tenor Asher Reichman). In a magnificent sequence of soliloquies Yakov eventually realises the error of his ways. Realizing that he cannot take his violin to the grave with him\, he bequeaths it to the unsuspecting Rothschild. At once shocked and deeply moved\, Rothschild plays a lament\, which is elevated in Fleischmann’s score into a sumptuous orchestral apotheosis. \nOver fifty musicians of The Orchestra Project deliver Fleischmann and Shostakovich’s sumptuous score; one that proves\, in every measure\, equal to the lyrically comic-tragic\, and ultimately redemptive message of Chekhov’s extraordinary\, and ever-relevant\, tale. \nWhere:  Melba Hall\, Royal Parade\, University of Melbourne \nWhen:   Sunday 29 September \n3:00 pm Pre-performance talk. \n3:45 pm Performance (45 min) \nTickets: $40/$25 https://www.trybooking.com/CVETA

SUMMARY:Melbourne Opera: The Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny
DESCRIPTION:Presented by IOpera and Melbourne Opera\, The Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny is a satirical opera which premiered in Germany in 1930. A modern-day parable and an attack on excess\, the eclectic score also draws inspiration from operetta and the jazz-infused popular music of the roaring ‘20’s. Regularly performed in the great opera houses of the world (including recent revivals at Covent Garden and The Met) its criticism of corruption in a world with increasingly shaky moral foundations\, and at war with nature\, makes it more relevant than ever. This is the first Australian production in over forty years. \nComposed by Kurt Weill with a libretto by Bertolt Brecht and Elisabeth Hauptmann – the same team who wrote ‘The Threepenny Opera’ (‘Mack the knife’)\, it features the famous the ‘Alabama Song’ (“Show me the way to the next whisky bar”) and is performed in a new English translation by Jeremy Sams. \nStarring award-winning artists – Antoinette Halloran\, James Egglestone\, Liane Keegan\, Christopher Hillier\, Robert Macfarlane\, Christopher Tonkin\, Fraser Findlay\, Darcy Carroll\, and Alastair Cooper-Golec\, plus a stellar female ensemble\, forty-piece orchestra\, and the Melbourne Opera chorus\, The Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny is directed by Suzanne Chaundy and conducted by Peter Tregear.

SUMMARY:Melbourne Opera: The Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny
DESCRIPTION:Presented by IOpera and Melbourne Opera\, The Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny is a satirical opera which premiered in Germany in 1930. A modern-day parable and an attack on excess\, the eclectic score also draws inspiration from operetta and the jazz-infused popular music of the roaring ‘20’s. Regularly performed in the great opera houses of the world (including recent revivals at Covent Garden and The Met) its criticism of corruption in a world with increasingly shaky moral foundations\, and at war with nature\, makes it more relevant than ever. This is the first Australian production in over forty years. \nComposed by Kurt Weill with a libretto by Bertolt Brecht and Elisabeth Hauptmann – the same team who wrote ‘The Threepenny Opera’ (‘Mack the knife’)\, it features the famous the ‘Alabama Song’ (“Show me the way to the next whisky bar”) and is performed in a new English translation by Jeremy Sams. \nStarring award-winning artists – Antoinette Halloran\, James Egglestone\, Liane Keegan\, Christopher Hillier\, Robert Macfarlane\, Christopher Tonkin\, Fraser Findlay\, Darcy Carroll\, and Alastair Cooper-Golec\, plus a stellar female ensemble\, forty-piece orchestra\, and the Melbourne Opera chorus\, The Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny is directed by Suzanne Chaundy and conducted by Peter Tregear.

SUMMARY:Melbourne Opera: The Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny
DESCRIPTION:Presented by IOpera and Melbourne Opera\, The Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny is a satirical opera which premiered in Germany in 1930. A modern-day parable and an attack on excess\, the eclectic score also draws inspiration from operetta and the jazz-infused popular music of the roaring ‘20’s. Regularly performed in the great opera houses of the world (including recent revivals at Covent Garden and The Met) its criticism of corruption in a world with increasingly shaky moral foundations\, and at war with nature\, makes it more relevant than ever. This is the first Australian production in over forty years. \nComposed by Kurt Weill with a libretto by Bertolt Brecht and Elisabeth Hauptmann – the same team who wrote ‘The Threepenny Opera’ (‘Mack the knife’)\, it features the famous the ‘Alabama Song’ (“Show me the way to the next whisky bar”) and is performed in a new English translation by Jeremy Sams. \nStarring award-winning artists – Antoinette Halloran\, James Egglestone\, Liane Keegan\, Christopher Hillier\, Robert Macfarlane\, Christopher Tonkin\, Fraser Findlay\, Darcy Carroll\, and Alastair Cooper-Golec\, plus a stellar female ensemble\, forty-piece orchestra\, and the Melbourne Opera chorus\, The Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny is directed by Suzanne Chaundy and conducted by Peter Tregear.
