Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

This course will highlight the most important features of the operatic genre from its Florentine origins until the beginning of the 18th century, and through a number of case studies will offer a wide vision of the newborn operatic phenomenon. It will take into consideration the main operatic experiences in Florence, Mantua, Rome, Venice and finally Vienna, from the intermedi for La pellegrina (1587) until the death of the emperor Leopold I (1705). It will give the students the tools to approach the main elements of a Baroque opera:
- the authors (life and style)
- the dramatic text (literary features and sources)
- the music (harmonic and melodic features, instruments, topoi like lamenti, lullabies, war songs, etc.)
- the sources (manuscript and printed librettos and score, set designs, costumes drawings, etc.)

The students will be required to make a presentation as a midterm test, plus a final text (Seminar Arbeit) on a topic selected together with the lecturer during the reception time. Each of these works must contain results of a first hand research.
