  • MICHELE GIRARDI Opera E Teatro Musicale, 1890-1950 [1998]
    MICHELE GIRARDI Opera e teatro musicale, 1890-1950 [1998] Opera fin de siècle a. REALTÀ NAZIONALI. Nell’ultimo ventennio dell’Ottocento la situazione del teatro in musica era in pieno fermento. In primo luogo era andata assottigliandosi la differenza fra le tre scuole principali europee. A partire dagli anni Sessanta i modelli del grand opéra parigino, portato allo splendore da Meyerbeer, erano stati ripensati criticamente da Verdi, capofila incontrastato in Italia, e avevano arricchito il suo vocabolario drammatico. Wagner, dal canto suo, aveva attinto alla stessa fonte sin dal Rienzi (1842), assimilandone i valori formali e musicali ai soggetti della mitologia tedesca nel Lohengrin (1850), ma non in modo tale da guadagnare una totale autonomia al suo mondo drammatico. Anche l’esito sommo del Ring (1876) lascia vedere, al di là di un sistema musicale reso oramai autosufficiente in virtù del perfezionamento della tecnica del Leitmotiv, lo scheletro del dramma d’idee e le sue funzioni allegoriche che sorregge un affascinante mondo mitico riletto in chiave moderna. Parsifal (1882) chiuse la stagione creativa di Wagner: da quel momento il teatro tedesco avrebbe atteso un artista di levatura simile, ma prima che Richard Strauss comparisse sulle scene soltanto Humperdinck scrisse qualche pagina originale in Hänsel und Gretel (1893), opera fiabesca in cui l’uso del Leitmotiv è ricondotto in una dimensione sottratta al mero epigonismo. Una parentesi non del tutto riuscita fu Der Corregidor dell’austriaco Hugo Wolf (1896), musica di ottimo livello ma priva di una vera articolazione drammatica. La presenza di Wagner fu forse in proporzione più condizionante per l’opera in lingua tedesca rispetto a quella di Verdi nei confronti degli italiani.

    Intertextualidade!Intermidia­ lidade,a Qartir de "Das Frau­ lein von ~cuderi", de E. T. A. Hoffmann Maria Aparecida Barbosa Resumo Este artigo constitui uma aproximac;ao da fronteira entre literatura e outras artes. Desse modo, representa a busca de uma leitura auxiliar para com· preender caracteristicas dualistas do texto hoffmanniano, sobretudo concernen· tes arelac;ao entre musica e literatura. Palavras-ehave: intermidialidade, 6pera, Paul Hindemith, E. T. A. Hoff· mann Abstract This article links literature with other artistic fields. Doing so, it repre­ sents a search for understanding some ambiguous characteristics of Hoffmann's text, mainly concerning the music and literature relationship. Key-words: intermediality, opera, Paul Hindemith, E. T. A. Hoffmann Proponho uma discussao que pretende constituir uma analise dos processos de transformac;ao do texto litecirio. Malgrado as exigencias puristas de fidelidade ao original, as vers6es desestabilizam. Isso acontece tanto na versao de uma lingua para outra, como tambem, com certeza, numa versao do texto 149 outrarfravessia litecirio para 0 musical, para 0 drama, para a opera etc. Observo, por exemplo, a constelac;ao de personagens do conto "Das Fraulein von Scuderi" (A Senhorita de Scudery), escrito em 1820 pelo escritor alemao E. T. A. Hoffmann (1776-1822) e penso numa outra, que foi composta por urn artista do seculo XX, a partir do mesmo texto e que prioriza a problematica do artista. Trata-se da opera "Cardillac", de 1926, do compositor alemao Paul Hindemith, segundo alguns criticos urn dos mais importantes entre os compositores modernos. No irucio dos anos 20 do seculo passado, apos a grande repercussao e 0 exito das operas "Marder, Hoffnung der Frauen" (Assassinos, Esperan~a das Mulheres), "Das Nusch-Nuschi" e "Sancta Susanna", 0 jovem Hindemith interessou-se pelo tema do conto "Das Fraulein von Scuderi", de Hoffmann, e decidiu transforma-Io em opera.

His command of the standard ballet repertoire, Cinderella, Swan Lake, Nutcracker, Onegin, made him a popular guest at the Paris, Hamburg, Vienna and Berlin opera houses for over two and half decades. In Paris Maestro Pähn conducted in last season the ballet productions of La nuit transfigurée and Le Sacre du printempts and in this season choreography Jewels by George Balanchine. From 2012 to 2019 Vello Pähn was the chief conductor and Artistic Director of the Estonian National Opera in Tallinn.

M. VON WEBER Thesis approved: Stuart Cheney _______________________________________________________ Major Professor Blaise Ferrandino _______________________________________________________ William Gibbons _______________________________________________________ H.

I would also like to thank Dr. Blaise Ferrandino and Dr. William Gibbons for their feedback and support. Many thanks to Cari Alexander and Dr. David Hamrick for being my mentors, for helping me track down information and resources, and for always providing listening ears. My thanks to my family for their extensive support throughout my educational endeavors. iv Abstract This thesis explores the reception of Paul Hindemith’s Symphonic Metamorphosis of Themes by C. M. von Weber for orchestra, focusing on reviews of performances and recordings in newspapers, magazines, and journals published in the U.S. from the work’s premiere in 1944 through the 1960s. Scholarly literature rarely addresses the symphony beyond brief mentions of its popularity. If scholars have written little about the work, what has anyone else written? References to Symphonic Metamorphosis abound in newspapers, since the piece was widely performed, recorded, and broadcast on the radio.
