Mournful tones

One of Giuseppe Verdi’s most popular and vital works isn’t an opera, it’s the Messa da Requiem, and it was first performed in1874 in Milan. As a part of the “Italian Line” cycle, the National Theater is giving this work an atypical presentation as a dramatization. It is performed by the National Theater Orchestra and the Prague Philharmonic Ensemble, conducted by Jiří Kout. The vocalists are Catarina Cellia Costea (soprano), Yvona Škvárová (alto), Valentin Prolat (tenor), and Miloslav Podskalský (bass). The play is directed by Jiří Nekvasil, with sets by Daniel Dvořák.

The collection contains 97 black-and-white photographs, mostly action shots. “Small Retrospective” presents a selection of photos by Erwitt taken between 1953 and 2001. Born in Paris in 1928, Erwitt emigrated at age 11 to the US with his Russian parents. To date he has arranged numerous photograph essays, illustrations, and commercial work. He became famous for his distinctive photographic study of dogs and their masters, and his portrayal many famous personalities, “Snaps”, is also well known.
