SUMMARY:Melbourne Conservatorium of Music: Hänsel und Gretel
DESCRIPTION:  \n\n\nTwo versions of Engelbert Humperdinck’s 1893 opera Hänsel und Gretel will be performed by Melbourne Conservatorium of Music students in December — one for children and a darker version for adults. \nBoth stagings of the opera will feature students in the Master of Music (Opera Performance)\, with set and costume designs by two students in the Master of Design and Production (Stage Design). Humperdinck’s score will be played by students of the Conservatorium\, the full German version being conducted by Richard Davis\, Head of Orchestral Studies\, and the shorter English version being led by two repetiteur students from the Opera Performance course. \nHead of the Opera program Professor Jane Davidson\, who directed the two productions\, explains that the decision to stage different versions of the opera came from a wish to give the students as broad an experience as possible\, exploring contrasting interpretative possibilities within the same work. \n“Nowadays\, Hansel and Gretel is most immediately recognised as a children’s story in which a brother and sister get lost in a spooky wood\, find a gingerbread house with a scary witch\, and all is resolved as good overcomes evil\,” Professor Davidson said. \n“However\, when you look at the original story\, its roots stretch back to a very challenging history of desperate famine\, abandonment\, and murder of children by people with deep trust in forces beyond themselves. Given this history\, it seemed appropriate to explore these dark themes as well as those that more immediately come to mind when we think of this children’s fairy tale. Humperdinck’s score is brilliant\, depicting light and dark\, often simultaneously\, so it is possible to develop two very different productions.” \nProfessor Davidson said audiences can look forward to strong performances from the enthusiastic casts\, comprising more than 30 performers. \n“In order to give all students rich learning opportunities\, the performances feature rotating casts\, with some individuals performing in both productions\, and others focusing on either the shorter children’s version or the adult version of the tale\, recalling that this involves singing in different languages\,” she said. \n“In both productions\, the set is always adapting\, reflecting the experiences of the children. As the set is literally handled\, this means that the chorus — largely comprising undergraduate voice students — are deeply integrated into the project as characters shaping the setting\, and so expanding their performance experiences.” \nMaster of Music student Chloe Taylor said working on a large-scale opera production has been a highly positive learning experience. \n“Being involved in the Conservatorium’s production of Hänsel und Gretel this year has been such a unique experience\, as the two interpretations not only differ in language\, but also themes\, intention and relationships\,” said Chloe. \n“Working together as a cohort in a variety of casts across the shows has been a highlight\, as the unwavering support and camaraderie present in the rehearsal room and theatre creates a truly positive environment for us to flourish as growing artists motivated by a collective goal.” \nThe full-length opera will be sung in German while the shorter version for children is in English\, both productions use surtitles to maximise accessibility. \nHänsel und Gretel \n11-14 December 2024 7pm\nUnion Theatre\, The University of Melbourne\, 761 Swanston Street\, Parkville\, VIC 3052\nRun time: 2 hours and 10 minutes\, including an interval\nBook now \nHansel and Gretel for Schools and Families\n11am\, 11-14 December 2024\nUnion Theatre\, The University of Melbourne\, 761 Swanston Street\, Parkville\, VIC 3052\nRun time: 56 minutes with no interval\nBook now \n\n\n

The festival features a weekend of two performances\, Secrets\, Longing and Dreams\, and Die schöne Müllerin \, where audiences are invited to observe him working with our undergraduate\, masters and recent Voice and Piano graduate students on this exciting project. \n1823 was a pivotal year in Franz Schubert’s life. From the depths of despair after his syphilis diagnosis to the heights of creation\, his output includes some of his best music for solo piano\, as well as operas\, but in the realm of Lieder\, this year is extraordinary. \nStarting Saturday October 7\, the 1823 Project will feature performances of all Schubert songs written that fateful year\, including some audience favourites\, such as Du bist die Ruh and Nacht und Träume. \nThe festival will culminate on Sunday October 8 with a complete presentation of Die schöne Müllerin\, the first of his great Song cycles. Graham Johnson is the greatest performer and scholar on Schubert’s Lieder and we are looking forward to collaborating with him on this ambitious project. \nOctober 7\, 5pm 8pm \nHanson Dyer Hall – Level 3;    The Ian Potter Southbank Centre 43 Sturt Street Southbank\, VIC 3006 \nTICKETS: $10 – $15

SUMMARY:The University of Melbourne Symphony Orchestra: Bruckner 4 – The Romantic
DESCRIPTION:The University of Melbourne Symphony Orchestra presents masterpieces by Bruckner and Ravel and a Victorian premiere by Australian composer Elliott Gyger.\nThis concert\, given by the University of Melbourne Symphony Orchestra\, culminates in Bruckner’s Symphony No 4. Written in 1874 and nicknamed The Romantic by the composer\, it was revised many times. The University of Melbourne Symphony Orchestra will perform the 1878/80 version. There is evidence that Bruckner wrote this as a programmatic piece\, depicting life\, prayer\, and\, most notably in the third movement\, a hunt in the forest. \nThe concert begins with Ravel’s ballet Daphnis et Chloé (Suite No. 2). The story at this point in the narrative follows Chloé and her imminent reunion with Daphnis. After a musically spectacular sunrise\, and as a tribute to Pan (who has just rescued Chloé from pirates)\, the two re-enact the mythological story of Pan and Syrinx. \nJust before the interval\, the ensemble will perform the Victorian premiere of Elliott Gyger’s Concerto for Orchestra. Like the Bruckner\, Gyger’s structure is a marriage of beauty\, balance\, and symmetry. \n\nSunday 13 August 2023 5pm;   Elisabeth Murdoch Hall;   Duration: 2 hours (incl. interval)l \n  \n\n\n\n\nTICKETS: This event is free to attend however tickets are required. Currently sold out.

SUMMARY:The Tale of Orpheus\, by Claudio Monteverdi\, 1607
DESCRIPTION:From the team that brought you ‘Passion\, Lament\, Glory’\, this new production of The Tale of Orpheus reimagines Claudio Monteverdi’s baroque masterpiece L’Orfeo — arguably the first “true” opera — for the 21st century. \nWith David Greco in the role of Orpheus\, musical direction by Erin Helyard\, artistic direction by Jane Davidson and design by Matthew Adey\, the production celebrates the 450th anniversary of this great composer’s birth with two stunning performances at North Melbourne’s atmospheric Meat Market theatre. Using exotic and beautifully crafted period instruments\, the baroque orchestra will also play a central role in the story-telling process. \nKnown to his contemporaries as an “oracolo della musica”\, Monteverdi was a musical visionary\, whose talent for communicating raw emotion ensures the opera’s enduring appeal today. This production explores the work’s creative potential even further\, in a modern re-telling of one of the most influential and beloved stories in operatic history. \nProduced by the Melbourne Conservatorium of Music at The University of Melbourne in association with the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for the History of Emotions.
