Lucrezia Borgia

Lucrezia Borgia (Subiaco, 18 aprile 1480 -- Ferrara, 24 giugno 1519) fu figlia illegittima di papa Alessandro VI e della sua amante Vannozza Cattanei.Fin dagli undici anni fu soggetta alla politica matrimoniale collegata alle ambizioni politiche prima del padre e poi del fratello Cesare Borgia. Quando il padre salì al trono pontificio, la dette in sposa a Giovanni Sforza, signore di Pesaro, ma pochi anni dopo, in seguito all'annullamento del matrimonio, Lucrezia sposò Alfonso d'Aragona, figlio illegittimo di Alfonso II di Napoli.Dopo un breve periodo di lutto trascorso a Nepi con il figlio, Lucrezia partecipò attivamente alle trattative per le sue terze nozze, quelle con Alfonso d'Este, primogenito di Ercole duca di Ferrara, il quale dovette, pur riluttante, accettare.I Borgia hanno finito per incarnare, nel corso della storia, la spietata politica machiavellica e la corruzione sessuale attribuita ai papati rinascimentali. La stessa reputazione di Lucrezia divenne sulfurea dopo l'accusa di incesto, rivolta da Giovanni Sforza ad Alessandro VI e ai fratelli della moglie, e alla fama di avvelenatrice, dovuta in particolare alla tragedia di Hugo, musicata in seguito da Donizetti: in questo modo la figura di Lucrezia venne associata a quella di femme fatale partecipe dei crimini commessi dalla propria famiglia.

audio with a few pictures. The great contralto Ernestine Schumann-Heink (1861-1936), sings the Brindisi (Trinklied - drinking song) from "Lucrezia Borgia" by Gaetano Donizetti.

Joan Sutherland as Lucrezia Borgia in 1989

Joan Sutherland sings the finale of Donizetti's Lucrezia Borgia in a performance that took place in Paris, June 17th 1989. She was almost 63 years old. I'm not sure whether this is due to the recording or not, but apparently she did sing only the "da capo", still with a ringing and full top note in the end!

Lucrezia Borgia Preview from San Francisco Opera

COMPANY PREMIERE Renée Fleming, "America's most-loved and most-lauded opera singer" (The Times, London), returns to San Francisco Opera in the title role of this melodically rich bel canto masterpiece. A femme fatale renowned for her ruthless pursuit of power reveals poignant vulnerability when she comes face to face with her long-lost son. The silken-voiced soprano sings this touchstone role "with raw intensity and earthy richness, utterly inhabiting the character" (The New York Times). She will be joined by "rising American tenor Michael Fabiano [who] shone as Gennaro, his warm lyric tone founded on long-breathed phrasing and a well-shaped line" (Opera News), and bass Vitalij Kowaljow, who sings with a "potent blend of vocal weight and emotional transparency" (San Francisco Chronicle); mezzo-soprano Elizabeth DeShong, whose "big, bright and pleasing voice was wonderful as Orsini" (The New York Times); and led by internationally acclaimed conductor Riccardo Frizza.

La vera storia di Lucrezia Borgia

www.storiainrete.com La leggenda la vuole bellissima, perfida, cinica e assassina. La Storia ne conserva invece un ricordo decisamente migliore: Lucrezia Borgia non fu certo un angelo ma fu una donna costretta dagli uomini della sua famiglia a subire scelte anche dolorose. Ma gran parte delle vicende terribili che le sono state attribuite o che in realtà la videro coinvolta si verificarono nel giro di pochi anni, nel pieno del pontificato di suo padre, Papa Alessandro VI, e del massimo potere di suo fratello Cesare, il famigerato Duca Valentino. Una volta lasciata, per sempre Roma, le cose cambiarono. E se, soprattutto in Spagna, è in atto una parziale riabilitazione storiografica dell'intera famiglia, a cominciare dal discusso Alessandro VI, forse per Lucrezia non c'è bisogni di fare grandi esercizi di revisionismo. Infatti, a partire dal suo terzo matrimonio, quello col Duca di Ferrara Alfonso I d'Este, nel 1501, Lucrezia, a soli 21 anni, iniziò una nuova vita, quella definitiva. Una vita tranquilla, di corte, dove come altre grandi dame dell'epoca venne celebrata dai poeti (come Bembo e Ariosto), fu amata dal marito e diede al mondo ben sei figli. L'ultimo parto le fu fatale, a soli 39 anni. Una fine straordinariamente normale -- Legend paints her to be beautiful, perfidious, cynical and murderous. History leaves a much better memory: Lucrezia Borgia was not an Angel but she was a woman forced by men of her family to endure painful choices. But most of the terrible <b>...</b>

This is "Tu pur qui? non sei fuggito?" all the way through "Era desso il figlio mio" of Gaetano Donizetti's Lucrezia Borgia, starring Beverly Sills as Lucrezia and what sounds a lot like Henry Price as Gennaro. This is from the CD Sillsiana. Does anyone know the year and location? It sounds like it's staged, but I hear no chorus.
