Paul-Bernard Barroilhet (22 September 1810 – April 1871) was a French operatic baritone. ==Career== Barroilhet was born in Bayonne. He studied at the Conservatoire de Paris and then with Davide Banderali in Milan. He began his career in Italy during the early 1830s, performing under the name Paolo Barroilhet and making a name for himself as an exceptional singer, particularly in Naples. He returned to France in 1840 to join the roster of artists at the Opéra National de Paris, where he performed under his birth name. However, he left the Paris Opera in 1847 after differences with the company's management. The by now wealthy Bairrolhet elected to withdraw completely from the stage and he found a new vocation as a painter and art collector. He came out of retirement briefly for appearances in Madrid in 1851–1852, performing Don Carlo in ''Ernani''.〔(Barroilhet, Paul Biography at operissimo.com (in German) )〕 Barroilhet is best remembered today for originating roles in several operas by Gaetano Donizetti and Fromental Halévy. For Donizetti he created Eustachio de Saint-Pierre in ''L'assedio di Calais'' (1836), the Lord Duke of Nottingham in ''Roberto Devereux'' (1837), Alfonso XI of Castile in ''La favorite'' (1840), and Camoëns in ''Dom Sebastien'' (1843). The Halevy roles he created include King Lusignan in ''La reine de Chypre'' (1841), the title role in the premiere of ''Charles VI'' (1843) and Mirobolante in ''Le lazzarone, ou Le bien vient en dormant'' (1844).〔Damien Colas, « Paul Barroilhet », in Joël-Marie Fauquet (dir.), Dictionnaire de la musique en France au XIXe siècle, Paris, Fayard, 2003.〕 Other world premières in which he sang include Saverio Mercadante's ''La vestale'' (Publio) and ''Elena da Feltre'' (Guido), ''Il Conte di Chalais'' by Giuseppe Lillo, ''Richard en Palestine'' by Adolphe Adam and ''Marie Stuart'' by Louis Niedermeyer.〔 He also sang the title-role in the pasticcio opera, ''Robert Bruce'', in which Niedermeyer had adapted music from various operas by Rossini.〔(Mark Everist: "Partners in rhyme: Alphonse Royer, Gustave Vaëz, and foreign opera in Paris during the July Monarchy”, in ''Fashions and Legacies of Nineteenth-Century Italian Opera'', edited by Roberta Montemorra Marvin and Hilary Poriss, Cambridge University Press, 2009, ISBN 978-0-521-88998-8, pp.39-40. )〕 He died, aged 60, in Paris. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Paul Barroilhet」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
