Crawford) - Fantasia di Ruy Blas for E-flat Clarinet and Piano","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGiuseppe Cappelli - \u003cstrong\u003eFantasia di Ruy Blas\u003c\/strong\u003e for Eb Clarinet and Piano, edited by Elizabeth Crawford. Giuseppe Cappelli composed \u003cstrong\u003eFantasia di Ruy Blas\u003c\/strong\u003e after Filippo Marchetti’s opera \u003cem\u003eRuy Blas\u003c\/em\u003e, in 1886. The opera was a four-act dramma lirico set to a libretto by Carlo d’Ormeville after Victor Hugo’s 1838 historical drama of the same name. The Fantasia begins with a dramatic opening for E-flat clarinet and piano taken from the \u003cem\u003ePreludio\u003c\/em\u003e. This leads into the first \u003cem\u003eAndantino\u003c\/em\u003e, the Duetto for soprano and tenor of Act 3, Scene 3, “\u003cem\u003eDietro quell’uscio\u003c\/em\u003e.” Music in the \u003cem\u003eAndante sostenuto\u003c\/em\u003e section is lifted from Marchetti’s most famous aria of the opera (and his career)—“\u003cem\u003eO dolce volutta!\u003c\/em\u003e” Here an impassioned Ruy Blas shares his joy at the news the queen is in love with him. Though out of order from the opera, the queen’s light-hearted love song, “\u003cem\u003eChe t’amo\u003c\/em\u003e,” follows and Cappelli affords the E-flat clarinet an opportunity for embellishment of the original aria. One final lyrical passage, taken from Regina’s somber aria, “\u003cem\u003eO madre mia\u003c\/em\u003e,” of Act 2, Scene 1, concludes the fantasy before Cappelli’s energetic finale of original material.
