Summary: | On August 6, 1918, the first opera performance “Faust” by Ch. Gounod was acted in the capital of Bessarabia. The singers and the conductors of that period have transmitted the “secrets” of the musical theater, which are also valid for today’s artists. In particular, we refer to the local interpreters, trying to prove the existence of a link between the artists of yesterday and today. For example, tenor G. Borelli, the interpreter of the main role in “Faust”, was also a canto pedagogue of some well-known soloists of the Opera and Ballet Theater in the 1960s, and today’s well-known tenor, M. Muntean, was the student of another great tenor, N. Diducencu, who was the disciple in the singing class of the legendary L. Lipcovscaia. We have also tracked other examples of the vocal field. We have also planned to make a review of the directors’ activity starting from I. Gorschi, from Basarabian Opera and ending with today’s stage directors. We attempted to bring into memory the conductors of the opera as well, ascertaining that the first one was M. Bârcă, as for A. Samoilă, he is considered to be one of the most professional orchestra conductors ever of the Lyric Theater in Chisinau. We also noted the contribution they made to the development of the theater in Chisinau and that of the artists specially invited for certain performances. |
