Donizetti’s Bel Canto Domestic Rom-Com ֬ਢⴇ⑔ᮆ℅↝ᕷᚲ‫؀‬е Peter Gordon 高博德

Don Pasquale is the last, and in many ways the most sophisticated, of Gaetano Donizetti’s great trio of comic operas which includes L’elisir d’amore and La fille du régiment. The music is Donizetti at his best, with bel canto melodies in turn lyrical, bubbly, wry, melting, ironic and rhythmic; the opera contains showstopping arias for soprano and tenor, and one of the funniest and most challenging patter duets ever written.

唐尼釆蒂的三大喜劇：《唐·帕斯夸雷》、《愛情靈 藥》和《軍中女郎》，其中《唐·帕斯夸雷》是他的 最後亦是最精巧的作品。該劇的音樂是唐尼釆蒂的顛 峰之作，美聲旋律多姿多采，時而抒情、活潑、輕蔑、 感人、諷刺和富節奏感；多首女高音和男高音的詠嘆 調令人拍案叫絕，其中的一首二重唱更是史上最搞笑 和難度最高的。

The Don Pasquale of the title is a wealthy man of advanced years who decides to get married. Why? Is he in love? Not yet, anyway: he’s waiting for his friend Dr Malatesta to find him a bride. To sire a family? Possibly. But mostly to spite his nephew Ernesto whose current girlfriend is, Pasquale feels, entirely unsuitable for a family of this stature. Pasquale boots him from his house to make room for the new bride.

主角富翁唐·帕斯夸雷年事已高，但突然決定結婚， 原因為何？難道他墮入愛河了？非也；他想成家立 室？也許吧。無論如何，他正等待好友馬拉特斯塔醫 生為他物色新娘子。歸根究底，主要是他不喜歡侄兒 埃爾尼斯托的現任女朋友，認為她配不上他的顯赫家 族，於是帕斯夸雷就將姪兒踢出家門，騰出空間迎娶 嬌妻。

The girl the Malatesta delivers is none other than Norina, Ernesto’s girlfriend. It’s all a trick of course, but no one has informed the shell-shocked Ernesto. He works it out as soon as Norina transforms from the apparently docile convent-schooled maiden into a bossy dragon lady who sets about spending all of Pasquale’s money. Pasquale now has the opposite problem: how to get rid of her. Malatesta once again offers to help.

誰知馬拉特斯塔為他找來的，竟是埃爾尼斯托的女友 諾麗娜。當然這是為要戲弄帕斯夸雷，但這時埃爾尼 斯托卻仍毫不知情，當然大為震驚。然而，看到諾麗 娜從一個受修道院教育，表面看來千依百順的溫柔小 女子，搖身一變成為一個立意要散盡帕斯夸雷家財的 潑婦，埃爾尼斯托就馬上「心領神會」。現在帕斯夸 雷面對的難題剛好相反：如何能夠將惡妻逐出家門。 於是馬拉特斯塔就再度獻計。

The enduring appeal of Don Pasquale is surely due in large part to the universality of the story (a variant of which appears with regularity on the Internet), but what sets Don Pasquale apart is its undercurrent of regret. Pasquale is vain, foolish and avaricious and deserves what’s coming to him, but Norina treats the elderly man with what approaches cruelty. She rues what she has to do ... but does it anyway. Amidst the comedy, Donizetti, perhaps realizing that we all get old sooner or later, pulls us up short.

《唐·帕斯夸雷》之所以廣受歡迎，歷久不衰，主要 原因是它的故事題材相當普及（互聯網上經常找到各 種變異版本），但該劇獨特之處卻是在於它潛藏的懊 悔信息。固然，自大的帕斯夸雷愚蠢又貪婪，自作自 受，但諾麗娜用來對付這個老人家的手法卻是幾近殘 忍。雖然她因這樣對待老人家而覺得悔咎，但不管怎 樣她還是這樣做了。在這齣喜劇裡，唐尼釆蒂提醒大 家：人總會老，頭腦總有糊塗的時候。

In this, the swansong of bel canto comic opera, Donizetti produced a layered romantic-comedy that is more than just fun, games and beautiful music.

這齣美聲歌劇是唐尼釆蒂的最後力作，不僅將風趣、 嬉戲原素融合在美妙音樂中，更是一齣層次豐富的浪 漫喜劇！

Opera Hong Kong ㄴᗿᐃе⽡ Fo u n d e d i n 2003 O p e ra H o n g Ko n g ( OH K ) i s H o n g Ko n g ’s f i rs t professional opera company. Over the years, the company has gone from strength to strength under the Artistic Director Warren Mok, the internationally acclaimed Hong Kong tenor. OHK has elevated opera in the Asia’s world city, with many world-class productions covering all major works in the operatic canon and has collaborated with opera houses and festivals including Teatro dell’Opera di Roma, Taormina Opera Festival, Theater Erfurt, Opéra de Nice, National Centre for the Performing Arts and Shanghai Opera House.

In 2019, OHK was selected by the Hong Kong Arts Development Council as one of the three recipients of the coveted “Eminent Arts Group Scheme”. The Scheme’s consecutive 5-year funding has become a boost to further the company’s development.

OHK is committed to promoting the city’s brightest, young opera singers.

In 2015, OHK launched the Jockey Club Opera Hong Kong Young Artist Development and Education Programme (the Programme), a three-year opera training programme designed to nurture ten young local artists.

The success of the Programme led to its renewal by The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust for another three years from 2019 to 2022, providing intensive training to 12 local artists.

OHK also places a strong emphasis on its education and community activities. Opera school tours, summer schools and master classes are held regularly to reach young audiences. The music centre in Wanchai provides a wide range of courses for early age children to adult in addition to Children Chorus classes. The OHK Chorus and the OHK Children Chorus were established in 2004 and 2008 respectively and are becoming recognised contributors on the local choral scene.

The recent development of the Greater Bay Area has created an environment for OHK to initiate more collaborations and bring the art of opera to a wider audience.
