Lost Music: Exploring Literary Opera Marc Eliot Stein An exciting new podcast by Marc Eliot Stein of Literary Kicks. Why is opera relevant today? This sometimes-lost art form hides a fascinating, vibrant world. In our first episode, we discuss whether Verdi's Otello is better than Shakespeare's Othello, whether Othello had PTSD, and what it means that Mozart's Le Nozze di Figaro is an Italian opera by a German Austrian and a Venetian Jew based on a French play that takes place in Spain. Welcome to the first episode of Lost Music: Exploring Literary Opera! Discover Otello Jonas Kaufmann, Antonio Pappano, Thomas Voigt Let tenor Jonas Kaufmann, conductor Antonio Pappano and journalist Thomas Voigt take you on a journey of discovery into the heart of one of Verdi’s greatest and most thrilling operas – Otello. Through personal insights and anecdotes, the trio explore, one act at a time, what it is like to perform and record Verdi’s masterpiece based on the Shakespearean tragedy.What is it like for the tenor to stand in the wings, awaiting his triumphant yet utmost demanding entrance scene, while the storm music rages on stage? How do you keep the spontaneity and truthfulness of a live performance, when you record the opera in a studio setting? Why does Otello’s wife Desdemona keep inadvertently inciting his jealousy leading to tragic consequences? Marvel at the beauty and power of Verdi’s music as Jonas explains how he believes the listener comes away with compassion for the ill-fated Otello at the end of the Opera.

Altro che giovani in calzamaglia e teschi in mano: tra vendette familiari, gelosie furiose, guerre dei sessi e padri che non vogliono mollare il potere ai giovani, le sue storie parlano ancora di noi. A guidarci in questo viaggio c’è Laura Tosi, professore ordinario di Letteratura Inglese all’Università Ca’ Foscari di Venezia, che ci accompagna puntata dopo puntata tra i grandi drammi shakespeariani per mostrarci quanto siano ancora vivi, riconoscibili, attuali. Da Amleto a Re Lear, da Otello alla Tempesta: un percorso tra passioni, potere e identità che attraversa i secoli e magari ci regala anche qualche dritta per sopravvivere al presente.KILL WILL è parte di un progetto che ha conferito al Dipartimento di Studi Linguistici e Culturali Comparati (DSLCC) il titolo di Dipartimento di eccellenza come centro di studi sui processi di adattamento cultu
