Alegerea capodoperei enesciene ”Oedipe” pentru deschiderea celei de-a XXIII-a ediții a Festivalului Internațional ”George Enescu” (2–24 septembrie) este o foarte bună alegere, chiar dacă nu e vorba de o montare nouă, ci de opera în concert, dar într-o formulă nouă, multimedia.

The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Robert Ziegler, will be performing McCree's work as orchestrated by Adam Langston. Recording at the world famous Abbey Road Studios is booked across five sessions for Monday & Tuesday, October 16th & 17th, 2017. The release date of The Tomb Raider Suite was slated for November 2017, but this could meet delays to allow mixing, mastering and manufacturing.

‘You meet your prince, a charming prince,  As charming as a prince will ever be...’

In honour of the recent passing of HRH Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, we thought it appropriate to cast a brief spotlight on a little known occasion from British theatre history when our Julie sang for the Prince. Or at least one of the times, that is, because Julie actually performed before the Prince on several occasions over the years, dating right back to the very beginning of her career. Prince Philip was part of the King’s Party, along with his wife, the then Princess Elizabeth, at the legendary 1948 Royal Command Performance where Julie sang at age 13, the youngest artiste ever to be included in a Royal Variety. The Duke was also in attendance at several subsequent Royal Command Performances at which Julie performed including 1959 and 1977, as well as the special Royal Gala Performance of My Fair Lady in 1958.

One of the more significant performances, however, was a special late-night charity concert on 26 October 1959 at which Prince Philip served solo honours as official Royal sponsor. Titled Royal Midnight Matinee, the concert was an all-star variety benefit for the National Playing Fields Association -- a charity for which the Duke was President -- in conjunction with the Jewish National Fund Charitable Trust. Similar ‘midnight matinee’ events had been organised previously, held late at night so that performers from the various West End shows could participate. This particular late-night benefit was put together by two of the UK’s biggest impresarios of the era, Val Parnell and Lew Grade, who “hoped to make it one of the most spectacular shows ever known” (‘Prince’, 1). 

Held at London’s iconic Palladium Theatre, the Royal Midnight Matinee brought together a galaxy of big name stars, several of whom had featured prominently in Julie’s earlier professional life. From her days on Educating Archie and the pantomime Cinderella, was Max Bygraves and, doing headline honours, was the great Danny Kaye who had performed alongside Julie at the aforementioned Royal Command Performance in 1948. Another alumnus from that variety show, Arthur Askey, was also scheduled to appear but he had to withdraw at the eleventh hour owing to family bereavement and was hastily replaced by Jimmy James, Roy Castle and Bretton Woods. Rounding out the company was a diverse roster of talents including Tommy Steele, Benny Hill, Roberston Hare, Irving Davies, the London cast of West Side Story, the London Philarmonic Orchestra, the Tiller Girls dance troupe, and an assortment of music hall acrobats, jugglers and comics. For her part, Julie sang a trio of songs in a special solo set: “Little Bit in Love”, “London Pride” and, her mandatory signature piece, “I Could Have Danced All Night”. She rejoined the stage at the end of the night where the entire company sang a rousing rendition of “There’s No Business Like Show Business” before ending with the customary, “God Save the Queen” (R.B., 3). The curtain came down at 2:45am, after which Prince Philip went backstage to thank the 175 artistes who had participated and personally greeted several of the main stars, including Julie. 

Reviews of the show were uniformly enthusiastic. The Times pronounced it “a brave show for the small hours”, the Daily Mirror adjudged it “excellent” (Rolls, 2), and The Stage called it “bright” and “memorable”, making special mention of Julie for “looking wonderful” and making “everyone in the theatre happy” (R.B., 3). Moreover, the night raised over £31,000 for its nominated charities (R.B, 3). A substantial portion of those funds came from advertising in the show’s programme which clocked in at 154 pages and weighed a whopping one-and-a-half pounds (Rolls, 2).

“Yo nací en esta ribera del Arauca vibrador…” 🌹☀️ . No existe un venezolano en todo el planeta que no haya cantado el “Alma llanera”, que indudablemente es nuestro segundo himno nacional. . El “Alma Llanera” fue estrenada como parte de una zarzuela el 10 de septiembre de 1914. Luego Pedro Elías Gutiérrez decide independizar la pieza de la zarzuela musical y así monta la canción con la Banda Marcial de Caracas. La estrena en la plaza Bolívar de Caracas, en la retreta de despedida del año, el 31 de diciembre de 1914. . Esta viejita que tiene una vigencia de 105 años tiene la particularidad de emocionar hasta las lágrimas. Cuando se escucha fuera del país parece crear un puente emocional entre el corazón, la nostalgia y el llanto. . Alfredo Sadel, Aldemaro Romero, Juan Vicente Torrealba, y por supuesto, Simón Díaz, la han interpretado. También voces internacionales la han hecho suya: Gilberto Santa Rosa, Julio Iglesias, Pedro Fernández, Plácido Domingo, Jorge Negrete y la National Philarmonic Orchestra of London 🎵🎵 . Sin embargo, estamos casi seguros que no hay nada más sublime y emocionante que escucharla con los extraordinarios músicos de la Orquesta Simón Bolívar de Venezuela 🎶🎶 . ¿Por qué se usaba para cerrar cualquier evento? . Desde los primeros años de su interpretación, el “Alma Llanera” cerraba las retretas de los domingos en la plaza Bolívar, que fue donde se popularizó este joropo. Era solicitado por el público, al final, cada vez que la banda se presentaba. . . Con el tiempo creció su popularidad y era interpretada por las orquestas locales para cerrar los bailes. Hacia finales de los años cuarenta la Billo’s Caracas Boys incluyó el “Alma Llanera” en su primer LP. . El “Alma Llanera” se la damos en tetero a nuestros niños, por eso podemos afirmar que #VenezuelaNosUne 💛💙♥️ . ¿Y tú, qué sientes al escuchar el Alma Llanera? .
