Scherzo Fantastique, Op. 25 The Scherzo was composed in 1903 and premiered two years later in Prague. The end of the nineteenth century brought many now-distinct composers such as Gustav Mahler, Claude Debussy, and Antonin Dvořák to the forefront. Not only did these composers find great success in their compositions, but also in their various other jobs. For example, Mahler was a famed conductor before he was known as a composer, and Debussy was known for his teachings at the end of his life at the Paris Conservatory. Dvořák followed another path, one which took him to the United States as a professor of music during the years 1892-1895.

  • Igor Stravinsky Y Robert Craft: Expositions and Developments, Ed
    MO I IGORNO STRAVINSKY I GRÁ FI CO UNRUSOENSAN PETERSBURGO: EL PÁJARO DE FUEGO* Stephen Walsh• El período de formación de Stravinsky, tan descuidado por la mayor parte de los estudio- sos de su obra, es importante para comprender el estilo maduro del compositor a partir de Petrushka. El autor del artículo pasa revista a las obras tempranas de Stravinsky, sobre todo la Sinfonía en mi bemol, Scherzo fantastique, Feu d’artifice, El Pájaro de Fuego o El Ruise- ñor. En este panorama, es necesario contemplar El Pájaro de Fuego como una obra de sín- tesis que cierra una época, y no, como a menudo se hace, como inicio del estilo maduro. Desde este punto de vista, el autor estudia la confluencia en estas obras tempranas de la tradición representada por Rimsky, su maestro, a la vez académica y progresista, y la tradi- ción heterodoxa, antiacadémica y con profundas raíces en la cultura tradicional y en el len- guaje ruso de Mussorgsky, además de otras influencias, como la del impresionismo francés o incluso la del “detestado” estilo de Scriabin. De la primera aprenderá las herramientas necesarias para el dominio de la arquitectura musical y de la orquestación y la composición de la textura; de la segunda, un uso de la armonía y la disonancia no sometido a las con- venciones de la gramática tonal y un ritmo que vive de la agrupación irregular de pulsos y que le permitirá desarrollar su técnica constructiva basada en el uso de células manipula- bles que se rearticulan de manera diversa. Para la mayor parte de los estudiosos de Stravinsky, las obras que éste com- puso antes de El pájaro de fuego tienen una importancia comparativamente menor que las obras tempranas de otros compositores.

I will, however, argue that the octatonic scale portance of the octatonic scale in Stravinsky’s music.1 What began is less central to Stravinsky’s work than it has been made out to as a trickle has become a torrent, as claims made for the scale be. In particular, I will suggest that many instances of purported have grown more and more sweeping: Berger’s initial 1963 article octatonicism actually result from two other compositional tech- described a few salient octatonic passages in Stravinsky’s music; niques: modal use of non-diatonic minor scales, and superimposi- van den Toorn’s massive 1983 tome attempted to account for a tion of elements belonging to different scales. In Part I, I show vast swath of the composer’s work in terms of the octatonic and that the rst of these techniques links Stravinsky directly to the diatonic scales; while Taruskin’s even more massive two-volume language of French Impressionism: the young Stravinsky, like 1996 opus echoed van den Toorn’s conclusions amid an astonish- Debussy and Ravel, made frequent use of a variety of collections, ing wealth of musicological detail. These efforts aim at nothing including whole-tone, octatonic, and the melodic and harmonic less than a total reevaluation of our image of Stravinsky: the com- minor scales.

  • Igor Stravinsky
    A PORTRAIT Igor Stravinsky 1882–1971 Igor Stravinsky: A Portrait Preface Among the carefully adapted transcriptions of conversations between the veteran Stravinsky and Robert Craft, there is one especially telling passage. Referring to his 1920 ballet Pulcinella, the composer recalls the reaction to his arrangements of Pergolesi and other eighteenth-century musicians: People who had never heard of, or cared about, the originals cried ‘sacrilege’: ‘The classics are ours. Leave the classics alone.’ To them all my answer was and is the same: You ‘respect’, but I love. A great genius’s love for all his models is what lies at the heart of Stravinsky’s creativity. (It is worth noting that although he was apt to put inverted commas around the word ‘heart’, Stravinsky leaves the word ‘love’ to stand unqualified in the above quotation.) He made everything he touched become his own, whether it was the lush nationalist influence of his teacher Rimsky-Korsakov, or the extreme refinement of Anton Webern, whose music he discovered so late in life. No theme was deemed too cheap or outlandish a subject for transformation, and his inspiration was wide-ranging. Prokofiev thought him a disgraceful thief for pilfering other ballet composers’ ideas in Apollo, but Stravinsky’s genuine admiration for composers as unlikely as Gounod and Delibes was unlimited. Hungarian and Greek folk music, the antics of the music hall 4 Igor Stravinsky: A Portrait entertainer Little Tich, and the jazz trumpeting of Shorty Rogers: all these were grist to his creative mill. As the awed conductors who welcomed the eighty-year-old Stravinsky back to Russia so eloquently wrote at the time, the only figure with whom he could be compared was Picasso.

  • Igor Stravinsky, One of the Greatest Masters of Modern Music, Was Born in Oranienbaum, Near St
    FROM: AMERICAN BALLET THEATRE 890 Broadway New York, New York 10003 (212) 477-3030 Kelly Ryan IGOR (FEDOROVITCH) STRAVINSKY Igor Stravinsky, one of the greatest masters of modern music, was born in Oranienbaum, near St. Petersburg, on June 17, 1882. The son of a famous bass singer at the Imperial Opera, Feodor Stravinsky, he was raised in an artistic atmosphere. He studied law until age nineteen, when Rimsky- Korsakov in Heidelberg encouraged him to study composition seriously and he studied theory with Kalafati. In 1907, Stravinsky studied with Rimsky-Korsakov in St. Petersburg and on January 22, 1908, his first symphony, which showed a mastery of technique, was performed in St. Petersburg. This was followed on February 29, by his critically successful set of songs for mezzo-soprano and orchestra, Le Faune et la Bergere. In celebration of Maxmillian Steinberg's marriage to Rimsky-Korsakov's daughter (June 17, 1908), Stravinsky wrote an orchestral fantasy, Feu d'artifice, and when Rimsky-Korsakov died a few days later, he wrote a threnody as a tribute. Stravinsky's next orchestral work, Scherzo fantastique, was performed in St. Petersburg (February 6, 1909) and the famous impresario, Diaghilev, heard it and commissioned Stravinsky to write a work on a Russian subject. The result was the production of the first of Stravinsky's ballet masterpieces, L'Oiseau de feu (Paris, June 15, 1910) and the beginning of the successful collaboration between the composer and producer. Stravinsky’s association with Diaghilev concentrated his activities in Paris and he moved there in 1911. His second ballet for the impresario, Petrouchka, (Paris, June 13, 1911), was a great success and was so new and original that it marked a turning point in 20th century modernism.

  • Igor Stravinsky Petrushka
    Exiles from Revolution Stravinsky the nationalist Welcome to the new look Soviet Music @ Lewes U3A This term we are going to explore how Soviet music reacted to Russian composers living abroad. Our five sessions will explore: One: Stravinsky the nationalist Two: Prokofiev and machine music Three: Stravinsky’s middle period Four: Rakhmaninov reclaimed Five: Stravinsky’s homecoming and his late period music Igor Stravinsky (1882-1971) was already living in the west in 1917, and didn’t visit Russia again until 1962. Sergei Rakhmaninov (1873-1943) emigrated soon after the Bolsheviks took power, and never returned. Sergei Prokofiev (1891-1953) negotiated a leave of absence from revolutionary turmoil, returning in 1936. © 2020 Terry Metheringham [email protected] +44 7528 835 422 Soviet Music: Exiles from Revolution Session 1: Stravinsky the nationalist 2 Introduction: Stravinsky the nationalist Today we will be focusing on Stravinsky’s 1911 ballet Petrushka. We will use it as a launch pad for exploring how Stravinsky’s brand of nationalism was received in the USSR from the early years of the revolution through to the 1960s. We will also hear music by Soviet composers echoing aspects of Petrushka: Prokofiev Russian Overture (1936) Popov Second Symphony “Motherland” (1944) Shchedrin Concerto for Orchestra No. 1 “Naughty Limericks” (1963) The total length of the music in this session is 95 minutes (with an option to reduce that to 70 minutes by only listening to one movement of Popov). © 2020 Terry Metheringham [email protected] +44 7528 835 422 Soviet Music: Exiles from Revolution Session 1: Stravinsky the nationalist 3 Stravinsky background Igor Stravinsky was born into a musical family.
