CNN International: Anna Netrebko Revealed

On 17. November 2010 at 08:30 AM (GMT) CNN International has premiered "Anna Netrebko: Revealed"
a 23-minute long documentary about the Russian superstar soprano Anna Netrebko.

The awesome documentary is splitted into three parts and it can be seen at the CNN International website.

The first part "Anna Netrebko: The modern face of Opera" starts with Anna Netrebko in New York in October 2010. She is leaving her new appartment, located just a few blocks away from Lincoln Center, going walking to the Met. Anna is rehearsing the revival of Otto Schenk's production of Donizetti's "Don Pasquale". The film shows Anna Netrebko, Mariusz Kwiecien and John Del Carlo rehearsing backstage some scenes of Donizetti's "Don Pasquale" under the precise and detailed direction of Otto Schenk.The fist part concludes with some nice images of a very young Anna in Krasnodar, some of her early performances at the Mariinsky Theater in St. Petersburg and a short interview with Maestro Valery Gergiev.

The second part "Anna Netrebko: Diva turned mother" starts with Anna Netrebko in London in June 2010. She is singing the title role of a new production of Massenet's "Manon" at the Royal Opera House. The film shows Anna arriving at the stage door of the Royal Opera House and warming up the voice at her dressing room. It includes footage from her current performances of Massenet's "Manon" at the Royal Opera House and Gounod's "Roméo et Juliette" at the Salzburger Festspiele 2010. The film show us also Anna as a mother, playing with her cute son Tiago or cooking at her new appartment in New York. Some other really nice moments are when Anna is refreshing some scenes of Bellini's "I Puritani" at the piano and Tiago is around there "playing" also the piano.

The third part "On stage with Anna Netrebko" starts with Anna Netrebko in Baden-Baden in July 2010. She is in a recording session of Pergolesi's "Stabat Mater" with Marianna Pizzolato and the Orchestra dell'Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia under the musical direction of maestro Antonio Pappano. This recording will be released by Deutsche Grammophon in March 2011. The film reveals the cover of this upcoming CD and includes also some images of a funny photo session with Anna and Marianna held in London in June 2010. After Baden-Baden and London, the film drive us back to New York in October 2010 to show us some on-stage rehearsals and the opening of Donizetti's "Don Pasquale" at the Met.

Anna Netrebko was just S-U-P-E-R-B! Amour ranime mon courage (Poison Aria) was of course the highlight of the evening, and there Trebs demonstrated that she's indeed in her best vocal shape, and her performance tonight was even better than her memorable Juliette at the Met! The voice is as beautiful as ever, it's round and darkish but the volume is enormous. During her final aria you simply stop analyzing and you admire that extra touch of talent that we others don't have. I've seen Anna in several productions and in various concerts/recitals but she was never as good as she's right now.

Anna Netrebko, Liederabend, Grosses Festspielhaus, Salzburg 17. Aug 2009

Anna Netrebko, accompanied by Daniel Barenboim at the piano, has performed in a sold-out Lied Recital of the Salzburger Festspiele, held at the Grosses Festspielhaus, Salzburg on 17. August 2009. The demand was already in January several times higher than the supply tickets and, till the last minute, the waitlist has been hopelessly long.

The programme, featuring selected songs by Russian composers Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakow and Piotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, has been the same one chosen for the lied recital given just a few days before at the Rosengarten, Mannheim on 12. August 2009, where, on that occasion, the Russian soprano was accompanied by Elena Bashkirova at the piano. After the 20 songs by the two Russian composers, they were two encores ending with Richard Strauss's "Cäcilie". The show ended with a standing ovation.

The lied recital has been recorded, not only for the Ö1 radio broadcast scheduled on 26. Aug 2009 19:30. It has been announced that a live CD it is planned to be released.

A lied recital, featuring also selected songs by Russian composers Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakow and Piotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, will be given by Anna Netrebko, accompanied by Daniel Barenboim at the piano, at the Festtage 2010, Philharmonie, Berlin on 29. March 2010.

Press Reviews
Herbert has kindly translated some extracts of the reviews published in the German press. Christoph Lindenbauer, in his review for the Kleine Zeitung, says that the Liederabend at the Salzburger Festsiele will be released as a live CD.

"Anna Netrebko is an excellent singer [...], unique in her kind as well as technically and artistically on a very, very high level. Last night she proved at the Salzburg Festival that she is able to enthuse her audience not only by culinary delicacies, but also by relatively unknown, even unwieldy lieder."
Anna Netrebkos russische Lieder - By Christoph Lindenbauer/APA, Kleine Zeitung, 18. Aug 2009 [German]

"Netrebko's performance on stage [...] and especially her manifold mode of expression are and will be world-class."
Anna Netrebkos russische Lieder - By Christoph Lindenbauer/APA, Kleine Zeitung, 18. Aug 2009 [German]

"It is sensational how Netrebko plays with the colours and can switch from a dark, guttural sound to shining bright, crystal clear soprano timbre, effortlessly filling the Festspielhaus with her voice. Voluminous force and grandeur are followed by a whispered piano, and everything is well-balanced and perfectly in line with her Russian-dramatic gestures. Netrebko's voice does (almost invariably) what Netrebko wants her to do. She plays with all facets of sound in all pitches - not only where it is technically easy."
Anna Netrebkos russische Lieder - By Christoph Lindenbauer/APA, Kleine Zeitung, 18. Aug 2009 [German]

"It was the glorious climax and also the conclusion of the Salzburg Festival 2009. [...] Powerful and voluminous, but also delicate, bright and with a crystal-clear voice, soprano Anna Netrebko easily filled the Festival Hall and underlined her singing with a typical Russian-dramatic gestures."
Anna Netrebko – nach der Babypause besser als je zuvor - Österreich News, 19. Aug 2009 [German]

"Some day she will be the most magnificent Marschallin ("Rosenkavalier") of all times, because she knows melancholy as well as happiness, and because her exuding voice is a marvelous frenzy of sound."
Süddeutsche Zeitung, 19. Aug 2009

"[...] sa voix se raffermit et déploie toutes les séductions d’un timbre fruité, richement coloré, avec des aigus glorieux et une palette de nuances raffinée. Pour chaque mélodie, elle sait trouver le climat, l’expression, les couleurs qui caractérisent un chant engagé et passionné. Sentiment encore renforcé après l’entracte avec Tchaïkovski [...]"
