ʻO ka lanakila o Angela Georgiou ma ke kiʻi "Tosca"

He nani ʻo Angela Georgiou. Loaʻa iā ia ka magnetism ma ke kahua. No laila ua lilo kekahi o nā mōʻī wahine o Bel canto i mea hana kiʻiʻoniʻoni. Ma ka film-colossus e pili ana i ka opera a Puccini, i kakau inoa ia e ka inoa o Benoit Jacot.*

ʻO ka mea mele Romanian me ke akamai "kūʻai" i kāna kiʻi ponoʻī. Hīmeni ʻo ia, a noʻonoʻo ka mīkini hoʻolaha e pili ana i ka hoʻohālikelike ʻana iā ia me ka "Divine" Kallas. ʻAʻohe kānalua - loaʻa iā ia kahi ʻenehana leo "hao". Ua unuhi ʻo ia i ka aria kaulana ʻo "Vissi dʻarte" me ke ʻano o ka manaʻo, akā me ka hoʻonui ʻole i ke ʻano veristic; ma ke ʻano o kāna mālama ʻana i nā ʻaoʻao o Rossini a me Donizetti, me ke kaulike kūpono ma waena o nā aesthetics o ka manaʻo a me ka hoʻohaʻahaʻa i nā hiʻohiʻona i ka ʻono neoclassical.

Akā ʻo ka ʻaoʻao ikaika loa o ke kālena a Angela Georgiou ʻo ia ke kālena hana. Ua ʻike maikaʻi ʻia kēia i kāna mau mea mahalo nui - ka poʻe maʻamau o Covent Garden. Ma Palani, he lanakila nui ia, kūʻai ʻia aku ma nā cassette wikiō.

ʻO ka hopena o kēia Tosca, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi, ʻaʻole like ia me ka hopena o nā opera he nui i hoʻoili ʻia i ka pale kiʻiʻoniʻoni. ʻIke ʻia kēia kiʻiʻoniʻoni e kahi mea hou aesthetic: kahi kuʻikahi i hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻia ma waena o ka ʻuhane o ke kiʻiʻoniʻoni a me ka ʻuhane o ka opera.

Ua kamaʻilio ʻo Riccardo Lenzi iā Angela Georgiou.

- ʻO ka pana ʻana i ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni "Tosca" i lilo i mea poina ʻole o kou ola, e Mrs. Georgiou?

- ʻAʻohe kānalua, ʻokoʻa loa ka hana ʻana ma kēia Tosca mai ka hana ʻana i ka hale keaka. ʻAʻohe o kēlā aura maʻamau e ʻae ʻole iā ʻoe e hana hewa. He kūlana e like me ka ʻōlelo "make or break": ka pono kūʻokoʻa o nā "holoholona o ke kahua", nona wau. Akā ʻo kēia hana ke ʻano o ka hoʻokō ʻana i kahi pahuhopu noʻu.

Manaʻo wau e mahalo i ka hale kiʻiʻoniʻoni, hiki ke ʻike a hauʻoli ʻia e ka lehulehu ākea. Akā naʻe, makemake mau au i nā kiʻiʻoniʻoni keaka. ʻAʻole wau e manaʻo wale i nā mea haku kaulana e like me Don Juan a Joseph Losey a i ʻole ʻo Ingmar Bergman's Magic Flute. Ma waena o nā kiʻi kiʻiʻoniʻoni i hoihoi iaʻu mai koʻu wā ʻōpiopio, ʻo ia nā kiʻiʻoniʻoni kaulana loa o nā opera me kāu Sophia Loren a i ʻole Gina Lollobrigida, i kaupalena iā lākou iho i ka hoʻohālike ʻana i nā prima donnas.

- Pehea ka hoʻololi ʻana o ka wehewehe ʻana i ke kahua i ka hoʻoponopono ʻana ma ke kiʻiʻoniʻoni?

— ʻO ka mea maʻamau, ʻike ʻia nā hiʻohiʻona a me nā manaʻo ma kahi kokoke, hiki ke ʻike ʻole ʻia i loko o ka hale keaka. No ka pilikia o ka manawa, ʻo ka pana ʻana, i mea e hoʻokō ai i kahi kūlike kūpono ma waena o ke kiʻi a me ka leo, hiki ke hana hou i nā manawa he nui, akā, ʻoiaʻiʻo, pono e kipaku ʻia ka leo mai ka ʻāʻī ma ke ʻano like, e like me ka ka helu. A laila, ʻo ka hana a ke alakaʻi ka hoʻokō ʻana i nā hui ʻana o nā pili kokoke, flash-back, kiʻi ʻoniʻoni mai luna a me nā ʻenehana hoʻoponopono ʻē aʻe.

Pehea ka paʻakikī iā ʻoe ke lilo i hōkū opera?

- ʻO nā mea a pau e pili ana iaʻu i kōkua mau iaʻu. ʻO koʻu mau mākua, nā hoaaloha, nā kumu, kaʻu kāne. Hāʻawi lākou iaʻu i ka manawa e noʻonoʻo ai i ka hīmeni wale nō. He mea leʻaleʻa hiki ʻole ke hiki ke hoʻopoina i ka poʻe i hōʻeha ʻia a hōʻike maikaʻi i ko lākou mau hiki, a laila e lilo i kiʻi. Ma hope o ia mea, hele mai ʻoe i ke kamaʻilio pololei me "kou" anaina, a laila nalowale ka ʻike he primadona ʻoe i hope. I koʻu wehewehe ʻana iā Longing, maopopo iaʻu ua ʻike nā wāhine a pau me aʻu.

- He aha kāu pilina me kāu kāne, ʻo ka tenor Franco-Sicilian kaulana ʻo Roberto Alagna? “ʻElua moa i loko o ka hale moa hoʻokahi”: ua hehi paha ʻoe i nā manamana wāwae o kekahi?

I ka hopena, hoʻololi mākou i nā mea a pau i mea pono. Hiki iā ʻoe ke noʻonoʻo i ke ʻano o ke aʻo ʻana i ka clavier ma ka home, i loaʻa iā ʻoe kekahi o nā mea maikaʻi loa - ʻaʻole, ʻo ka mea mele maikaʻi loa o ke kahua opera honua? Ua ʻike mākou i ke koʻikoʻi i ka pono o kēlā me kēia, a ʻo kēlā me kēia ʻōlelo koʻikoʻi iaʻu he manawa ia e noʻonoʻo ʻole ai. Me he mea lā ʻaʻole ʻo Roberto wale nō ka mea aʻu i aloha ai, akā he ʻano opera: ʻo Romeo, Alfred a me Cavaradossi i ka manawa like.
