Übersetzung von en:Carlos Feller
Kalman Felberbaum (30. Juli 1923[1] – 21. Dezember 2018) war ein Opernsänger der Stimmlage Bass der unter dem Künstlernamen Carlos Feller eine internationale Karriere machte. Er wuchs als Kind polnischer Einwanderer in Argentinien auf, und war über jahrzehnte ein Mitglied der Kölner Oper. Eine seiner Paraderollen war Don Alfonso in Mozarts Così fan tutte.
Early life
He was born near of Lviv which is in the western part of Ukraine, but was part of the Second Polish Republic at the time. The family emigrated to Buenos Aires, Argentina a few years later, and thereby avoided becoming casualties of the Holocaust.[2] His parents originally wanted him to become a dentist; however, he soon began his vocal training at the opera school of the Teatro Colón. His stage career launched with the comprimario role of the doctor in Debussy's Pelléas et Mélisande[2] there in 1946.[3]
Career
Feller stayed in Buenos Aires for more than ten years. He returned to Europe in 1958, when the Chamber Opera of Buenos Aires appeared at the World Exhibition in Brussels. He became a member of the Staatstheater Mainz, followed by engagements from 1960 at the Frankfurt Opera, and from 1962 at the Opernhaus Kiel. He appeared at the London Sadler's Wells Opera in 1958, in Cimarosa's Il maestro di cappella, and at the Edinburgh Festival as Dr. Bombasto in Busoni's Arlecchino.[1]
Feller returned to Buenos Aires in 1966 for three years.[1] From 1969 he was for decades a member of the Cologne Opera, where he performed a variety of roles, as an excellent actor as well as singer. He sang several Mozart roles in the cycle staged by Jean-Pierre Ponnelle: Leporello in Don Giovanni, Bartolo in Le nozze di Figaro, and Don Alfonso in his Così fan tutte. He also appeared in contemporary opera, as Doctor in Alban Berg's Wozzeck, and as Schigolch in his Lulu.[2] He was a frequent guest at international opera houses and festivals, including the Bavarian State Opera in Munich, La Monnaie in Brussels, and the Glyndebourne Festival Opera. At the Salzburg Festival, he appeared in 1969 as Uberto in Pergolesi's La serva padrona, in 1979 as Dr. Bartolo in Le nozze di Figaro, in 1982 as Don Alfonso, and in 1984 as the notary in Der Rosenkavalier by Richard Strauss.[1] Feller made his debut at the Metropolitan Opera as Don Alfonso, regarded as his signature role, and returned in 1990 as Dr. Bartolo in Rossini's Il Barbiere di Siviglia.[1]
He retired after a final concert at the end of 2009.[2] He died in December 2018 in the Bavarian town of Kempten.[2]
Recordings
Feller's audio recordings include complete operas, as Dr. Bartolo in both Mozart's Le nozze di Figaro and Rossini's Il barbiere di Siviglia, Alfonso in Mozart's Cosi fan tutte, the notary in Der Rosenkavalier by Richard Strauss,[1] and the Speaker in a live performance of Mozart's Die Zauberflöte.
Performances are available on video as Dr. Bartolo (again both Rossini's, and Mozart's), Geronimo in Cimarosa's Il matrimonio segreto, Bardolfo in Salieri's Falstaff from the 1995 Schwetzingen Festival,[1] Fabrizio in La gazza ladra, and other roles in early operas by Rossini.
