Accanto alle canzoni vengono proposti alcuni brani strumentali per liuto di John Dowland (1562/3?-1626), uno dei massimi liutisti e compositori di quel periodo. Alcuni di questi brani liutistici hanno un esplicito riferimento ai personaggi delle opere shakespeariane. Dai testi e dalla musica affiorano come per gioco citazioni, allusioni e stati d'animo che esaltano la forza primigenia che li ha ispirati, l'Amore, che gioco spesso non è. Completa il programma la lettura di brani scelti dalla drammaturgia shakespeariana. A condurci in questo affascinante percorso amoroso attraverso le pagine di William Shakespeare sono l'attore Massimo Somaglino, il soprano Enza Pecorari e Giulio Chiandetti al liuto. |

 "Love
in Shakespeare"
Enza Pecorari - voice "Love
in Shakespeare" is a fascinating journey through words and music in the poetic
universe of Love in the Elizabethan Age, also known as The Golden Age.
The performance presents the "songs" that William Shakespeare (1564-1616) included in his theatrical works. These love songs either belonged to the popular repertoire of the time or were written by Shakespeare himself. Their use in his plays always had a purpose as they expressed relief and comfort to the pains of love or they provided a moment of psychological introspection not without allegorical references. You will also hear instrumental pieces for the lute and lute-songs written by John Dowland (1562/3?-1626), one of the most important lutenists and composers of the times, some of which explicitly refer to Shakespearean characters. The words and music come together to offer quotations, allusions and moods that exalt the primitive force that inspired them i.e. Love. The actor Massimo Somaglino, who will recite excerpts from Shakespeare’s plays, the soprano Enza Pecorari and lutenist Giulio Chiandetti will take us on this captivating journey. |
