Marcelo Álvarez

ʻO ka mea hou aku nei, ua kāhea ʻia ka tenor Argentine ʻo Marcelo Alvarez e ka poʻe hoʻohewa ma ke ʻano he hoʻokahi o nā mea hakakā no ka hana o ka "hā" tenor ma hope o Pavarotti, Domingo a me Carreras. Ua hoʻokomo ʻia ʻo ia ma ka laina o ka poʻe noi e kona leo maikaʻi ʻole, nā hiʻohiʻona nani a me ka nani o ke kahua. I kēia manawa ua emi iki ka kamaʻilio e pili ana i ka "hāhā tenor", a hoʻomaikaʻi aku i ke Akua: ua hiki mai paha ka manawa i ʻike ai ka poʻe nūpepa, e hana nei i ko lākou ola ma ka hoʻopiha ʻana i nā pepa hakahaka, ua ʻokoʻa loa ka poʻe mele mele o kēia lā mai ka mua. nā mea nui.

Ua hānau ʻia ʻo Marcelo Alvarez ma 1962 a ua hoʻomaka kāna ʻoihana i ʻumikumamāono mau makahiki i hala. He ʻāpana mau ke mele i kona ola - ua aʻo ʻo ia ma ke kula me ka manaʻo mele a ma hope o ka puka ʻana hiki iā ia ke lilo i kumu. Akā ʻo ka koho mua i lilo i ʻoi aku ka prosaic - pono ʻoe e ola a ʻai. Ua hoʻomākaukau ʻo Alvarez no kahi ʻoihana ʻauhau. Ma mua o ke kulanui, ua nele ʻo ia i kekahi mau hoʻokolohua. He hale hana lako lako kona, a ke hoomanao mau nei ka mea mele i ke ala laau. Me he mea lā ua kanu mau ʻia ke mele. Akā ʻo ka mea kupanaha loa, ʻo ka mele i ʻike ʻia e ka tenor kaulana e hiki mai ana, ʻaʻohe pili me ka opera! I ka makahiki 1991, i ka manawa o Marcelo ma lalo o kanakolu, ua hoʻolaha ka mele "kunu" iā ia iho: makemake koke ʻo ia e hīmeni. Akā, he aha ka mea e hīmeni ai? Hāʻawi ʻia ʻo ia i nā mele pop, mele mele, nā mea ʻē aʻe akā ʻo ka opera. A hiki i kekahi lā nīnau kāna wahine iā ia: pehea kou manaʻo e pili ana i ka opera? Pane: He ʻano ʻano ʻaʻole wau i kamaʻāina. Eia hou, ua lawe kāna wahine iā ia i kahi hoʻokolokolo me kahi tenor i noi iā ia e hīmeni i kekahi mau mele Italia kaulana e like me O sole mio и Hana iā Surriento. Akā ʻaʻole ʻike ʻo Alvarez iā lākou…

Mai ia manawa a hiki i ka hoʻomaka ʻana ma ke ʻano he soloist ma ka hale keaka Venetian La Fenice, ʻekolu mau makahiki i hala! Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Marcelo ua hana ʻo ia me he pupule lā. Ua aie ʻo ia i kāna ʻano hana i kahi lede i kapa ʻia ʻo Norma Risso (“mea ʻilihune, ʻaʻohe mea i ʻike iā ia …”), nāna i aʻo iā ia pehea e haʻi maikaʻi ai i nā huaʻōlelo. Ua hāʻawi aku ʻo Fate i ka lima iā ia ma ke kanaka o ka tenor kaao Giuseppe Di Stefano, hoa o Maria Callas. Ua lohe ʻo ia ma Argentina i mua o nā "poʻokela" o ka Hale Hōʻikeʻike ʻo Colon, ka mea i hoʻopaʻa ʻole iā Alvarez no kekahi mau makahiki. "E wikiwiki, wikiwiki, ʻaʻole ʻoe e hoʻokō i kekahi mea ma ʻaneʻi, kūʻai i kahi tiketi mokulele a hele mai i ʻEulopa." Ua komo ʻo Alvarez i ka lele hōʻikeʻike ma Pavia a lanakila ʻole i ka manaʻo. He ʻelua mau ʻaelike i loko o kāna ʻeke - me La Fenice ma Venice a me Carlo Felice ma Genoa. Ua hiki iā ia ke koho i nā keaka no nā hoʻomaka mua - ʻo ia ʻo La Sonnambula a me La Traviata. Ua loiloi maikaʻi ʻia ʻo ia e nā mea hoʻohewa "bison". Ua hoʻomaka kona inoa e "kaʻahele" a no nā makahiki he ʻumikumamāono i kēia manawa, ʻoiai ʻo Alvarez e ʻoluʻolu i ka poʻe o ke ao holoʻokoʻa me kāna mele.

ʻO ka punahele a Fortune, ʻoiaʻiʻo. Aka, e ohi ana i na hua o ka akahele a me ka naauao. ʻO Alvarez kahi tenor lyrical me kahi timbre nani. Manaʻo ʻo ia aia ka nani o ka hīmeni ʻana i ka malu, ʻaʻole ʻo ia e ʻae iā ia iho e kaumaha i nā nuances. He haku koʻikoʻi kēia o ka ʻōlelo, a ʻo kāna Duke ma "Rigoletto" ʻike ʻia ʻo ia ka pololei loa ma ke ʻano o ke ʻano i nā makahiki he ʻumi i hala. No ka manawa lōʻihi, ua ʻike ʻia ʻo ia i ka poʻe hoʻolohe mahalo ma ʻEulopa, ʻAmelika a me Iapana ma nā kuleana o Edgar (Lucia di Lammermoor), Gennaro (Lucretia Borgia), Tonio (Ke kaikamahine a ka Regiment), Arthur (Puritans), Duke a me Alfred ma nā keaka ʻo Verdi, ʻo Faust lāua ʻo Romeo i nā keaka o Gounod, Hoffmann, Werther, Rudolf ma La bohème. ʻO nā hana "dramatic" loa i kāna repertoire ʻo Rudolf ma Louise Miller a me Richard ma Un ballo in maschera. I ka makahiki 2006, ua hana ʻo Alvarez i kāna hoʻomaka ma Tosca a me Trovatore. Ua hoʻoweliweli ka hopena hope i kekahi, akā ua hōʻoia ʻo Alvarez: hiki iā ʻoe ke hīmeni i ka Troubadour, noʻonoʻo iā Corelli, a i ʻole hiki iā ʻoe ke noʻonoʻo e pili ana iā Björling ... ʻOiaʻiʻo, ua hōʻike kāna hana ma Tosca ʻo ia wale nō ka mea hiki ke hīmeni i ka honua. he aria A ʻā maila nā hōkū me na piano Puccini a pau i oleloia. Manaʻo ka mea mele (a me kāna phoniatrist) i kāna mea kani leo e like me nā ʻano o kahi tenor lyric "piha". Ma hope o ka hoʻomaka ʻana i kekahi hana koʻikoʻi, hoʻopanee ʻo ia i ʻelua a ʻekolu mau makahiki, e hoʻi ana iā Lucia a me Werther. Me he mea lā ʻaʻole ia i hoʻoweliweli ʻia me nā hana ma Othello a me Pagliacci, ʻoiai i kēia mau makahiki i hala aku nei ua hoʻonui ʻia kāna repertoire me nā ʻāpana tenor nui ma Carmen (debut ma 2007 ma ka Capitol Theatre ma Toulouse), Adrienne Lecouvreur a me André Chénier ( nā debuts i ka makahiki i hala ma Turin a me Paris, kēlā me kēia). I kēia makahiki, ke kali nei ʻo Alvarez i ke kuleana o Radames ma "Aida" ma ke kahua o London's Covent Garden.

Manaʻo ʻo Marcelo Alvarez, he Argentine e noho mau ana ma Italia, ua like nā Argentines a me Italia. No laila ma lalo o ka lani "bel paese - he ʻāina nani" ʻoluʻolu loa. Ua hānau ʻia ʻo Son Marcelo ma ʻaneʻi, kahi e hāʻawi ai i kāna "Italianization". Ma waho aʻe o kahi leo nani, ua hāʻawi ke ʻano iā ia i kahi hiʻohiʻona nani, he mea nui ia no kahi tenor. Mahalo ʻo ia i ke kiʻi a hiki iā ia ke hōʻike i nā biceps hala ʻole. (ʻOiaʻiʻo, i nā makahiki i hala iho nei, ua kaumaha loa ka tenor a ua nalowale kekahi o kona nani kino). ʻO nā alakaʻi, nona ka mana piha i ka opera Alvarez e hoʻopiʻi pono ai, ʻaʻohe mea e hōʻino ai iā ia. Eia naʻe, ʻo ka haʻuki, me ka hale kiʻiʻoniʻoni, kekahi o nā leʻaleʻa a Alvarez. A pili loa ka mea mele i kona ʻohana a makemake ʻo ia e hoʻokani ma ʻEulopa: kokoke i nā kūlanakauhale a pau āna e hīmeni ai he ʻelua hola mai ka home. No laila, ma waena o nā hana, wikiwiki ʻo ia i ka mokulele e hoʻi i ka home a pāʻani me kāna keiki ...
