Daniel François Esprit Auber - Le concert à la Cour - Overture

- - - Conductor: Dario Salvi Czech Chamber Philharmonic Orchestra Pardubice - - - Le Concert à la cour ou la Debutante, is a comic opera in one act by composer Daniel-François-Esprit Auber to a libretto by Eugène Scribe and Mélesville , premiered in 1824 in Paris. Seventh opera by Auber and fourth with Scribe, it is distributed in one act, and therefore serves as an interlude to other operas during intermissions or within shows. It is a work, in prose, of romantic music . The opera was regularly revived in the years that followed. In particular, it was played many times at the Théâtre des Arts in Rouen in the 1820s and 1830s, integrated into many performances as an interlude; it is also given several times in Le Havre and Paris. Between 1824 and 1838 it was performed two hundred and seven times. He lived through two major revivals: in 1842, the work was given forty-two times and fifteen other times between 1851 and 1852. In its entirety, the opera was performed two hundred and forty-six times in Paris. Auber's work has given rise to several repetitions and diversions. Joseph Meissonnier made guitar arrangements of 'detached pieces' in 1825. Joseph Küffner produced a potpourri from the opera arias for flute and guitar, presumably in 1826. There is also a Fantaisie-valse Sur le Concert de la Cour by the composer Jacques-Louis Battman in 1873, arranged for piano. - - - Daniel-François-Esprit Auber was a French composer and director of the Paris Conservatoire. Born into an artistic family, Auber was at first an amateur composer before he took up writing operas professionally when the family's fortunes failed in 1820. He soon established a professional partnership with the librettist Eugène Scribe that lasted for 41 years and produced 39 operas, most of them commercial and critical successes. He is mostly associated with opéra-comique and composed 35 works in that genre. With Scribe he wrote the first French grand opera, La Muette de Portici (The Dumb Woman of Portici) in 1828, which paved the way for the large-scale works of Giacomo Meyerbeer. The composer's operatic music is noted for the brilliance of coloratura passages for chorus as well as soloists, and the quantity of ensemble writing, particularly in the finales to acts. Auber's orchestration, which reflects the influence of his friend Rossini, became the model for French operatic compositions throughout the 19th century, including those of Bizet and Massenet.
