The tragic tale of Romeo and Juliet inspired some of Shakespeare’s finest verse—and some of Bellini’s most beautiful melodies. “An opera of definite dramatic appeal” (The New York Times) awash in “music of extraordinary grace” (All Music Guide), this bel canto masterpiece features international stars Joyce DiDonato, a singer of “glamour, charisma, intelligence, grace and remarkable talent,” and Nicole Cabell, who “wields her radiant lyric soprano like a silken lasso” (The New York Times). Saimir Pirgu, praised by Opera News as “a tenor to watch,” brings his “honeyed tenor” (The New York Times) to his debut role as Tebaldo. Costumes are by world-renowned fashion designer Christian Lacroix; set designer Vincent Lemaire has created “dramatically powerful visual statements” (Opera Today) for the production; director Vincent Boussard “effectively underscores the claustrophobic, helpless situation of both lovers” (Opera News). Riccardo Frizza, praised by The New Yorker for his “crisp and idiomatic conducting,” leads the San Francisco Opera Orchestra and Chorus. (more…)

On night two, the band kicked things off with the aptly titled “Flamethrower” before segueing into a “Mulche’s Odyssey,” dominated by Cinninger on the fire and brimstone. “Miami Virtue” cooled things off a bit as Ryan Stasik dropped a smooth bass line, which, synced with the keyboard handiwork of Cummins, got both the band and crowd into a steady head bob. On the heels of a hefty “Plunger” sandwich, “Dump City” set up a second set that won’t soon be forgotten. The great saxophonist Joshua Redman joined the band for all of set two, making this one a rare gem in the UM catalog. Monster song after monster song interspersed with high energy improv made this one of the band’s favorite sets of the year. This one delivers. (more…)

• Umphrey’s McGee and TourGigs proudly present Rage. Riv. Repeat., a two-disc compilation of the best of the three-night run in Chicago, IL from February 20-22, 2014. Chitown faithful packed The Riv each night in anticipation of the hometown throw-down, as the band prepared a blend of rarities and fan-favorites for the crowd.
• The first disc is a mix between the first and second nights of the run. “Plunger” and “Much Obliged” featured intricate improv and the latter a vocal stew that revved the room to their feet. “Morning Song” was rendered beautifully with Brendan Bayliss on vocals, and Jake Cinninger led a clinic with his guitar craftsmanship on “The Floor” and “Syncopated Strangers.” Joel Cummins delivered note-for-note on “Kimble”, and this “Comma Later” just might be the finest ever captured on film.
• The second disc blends songs from nights two and three. Standout moments include Bayliss, Jake, and Stasik jamming in the Riv opera boxes during the opening track, “The Triple Wide.” “Hajimemashite” and “Glory” were melded together for the first time in seamless harmony. Bob Seger’s classic hit “Night Moves” got the acoustic treatment and a super-sized performance of “Der Bluten Kat” featured the collaborative UM improv fans have come to know and love. Disc two also features a slew of tunes making their TourGigs video debut, such as “Thin Air,” “Believe the Lie” and “Cherub Rock” featuring Jimmy Chamberlin of the Smashing Pumpkins. Another one for the books!

• Umphrey’s McGee packed Milwaukee’s historic Riverside Theater over Halloween weekend 2013. For the sixth year running, the band presented their signature Mash-Up Extravaganza– a unique blend of originals, covers and improv that only Umphrey’s can deliver. In keeping with the theme, the band donned multi-character costumes like “Batman and Robin Thicke” and “Silent Bob Seger,” as fans in attendance followed suit.
• After “Night On Bald Mountain” set the stage on All Hallows’ Eve, Umphrey’s got down to business with mash-up performances like “Don’t Fear The Doves, Snucka” and “Papa Can Change A Blurred Stone.” The encore performance of “Electric Avenue To Hell,” a blend of classic songs by AC/DC and Eddy Grant, raised the bar for the next two nights.
• Night two’s performance showcased the band’s untethered explosive energy. Look for Brendan & Jake playing guitar behind their heads; Saxophonist Kevin Sinclair’s sit-in for a jazz-inflected jam of “Ringo,” and “Wappy Sprayberry” as a massive improv vehicle. The third and final night featured a fresh mash-up, as Umphrey’s blended three of their own songs for the first time in “Push the Booth Deeper.” Highlights include Jake alongside Joel on keys for “Miami Virtue,” and a perfectly illuminated and energetic “Bridgeless” encore, drawing the weekend to a spectacular close (more…)

“Grand, cinematic opera, in wide-screen and Surround Sound” – this is how Germany’s daily Die Welt sees Rossini’s “Guillaume Tell” (1829) from the Rossini Opera Festival Pesaro. The renowned Festival has produced an impressive staging of Rossini’s last opera, which is feared for its multitude of high notes by all tenors singing the role of Arnold – except, perhaps, the phenomenal Juan Diego Flórez, “in a class of his own” (Deutschlandradio), who interprets this role here.
The work is an early example of romantic French Grand Opera and with its lavish musical writing and patriotic themes, the work itself set new musical and dramaturgical standards anticipating the music of Bellini, Donizetti, Meyerbeer, Verdi and even Wagner. After a performance of the work, Wagner told Rossini: “You have written music for all times, and that is the best.” At the Rossini Festival in Pesaro – whose solid credentials include editions based on serious research and faithfulness to the original – it is given in its original French version, and includes, besides the many great choruses, the beautiful, but often omitted ballet music.
The William Tell story goes back to Switzerland in 1307. Tell leads the Resistance against the oppressive Austrian official Gessler. Young Arnold, meanwhile, is a Swiss patriot but loves the Austrian Princess Mathilde. When Tell refuses to obey Gessler, the Austrian forces him to shoot an apple off his son’s head. Tell succeeds, but is jailed. Arnold picks up the torch of rebellion in spite of his love for Mathilde…
British director Graham Vick interprets the conflict of the Habsburg oppressors and the oppressed Swiss as a class conflict, and the story of the Swiss hero becomes the drama of a community’s resistance against a political, economic and military power. It is a timeless take on class struggles captured in drastic and unforgettable images, such as the gigantic staircase that descends from the ceiling at the end, and that will show Tell’s son the way to a free future.
The singers in this “Guillaume Tell” are “cast outstandingly down into the tiniest supporting roles”, wrote Deutschlandradio. And, as Arnold, Juan Diego Flórez “masters his part with seemingly effortless perfection” (Austria’s leading daily Die Presse). Praise was also heaped upon the young conductor Michele Mariotti, who made the opera come to life with the orchestra of the Teatro Comunale di Bologna playing “with furor, grandeur and precision” (Deutschlandradio).
