  • Benjamin Britten in the Music Culture of the Soviet Union in the 1960S (To the 100Th Anniversary of the Composer's Birth)
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Vol. 3 No. 14 [Special Issue - July 2013] Benjamin Britten in the Music Culture of the Soviet Union in the 1960s (to the 100th Anniversary of the Composer's Birth) Alexander Rossinsky Department of Art Altai State University Russia Ekaterina Vorontsova Department of History Altai State University Russia Abstract The period of the 1960-s was difficult and controversial. Former allies of the anti-Hitler coalition turned to be on different sides of the acute ideological struggle which nearly led to the world war. Tremendous work was carried by artists, musicians who united disparate peoples into the community calling for the universal values. The central place in such the sphere of music belongs to one of the greatest composers of the 20th century, Benjamin Britten. Together with the Soviet musicians he pushed the world back from the sharp ideological confrontation. Keywords: B.Brittten, P.Pears, USSR, M.Rostropovich, G.Vishnevskaya, D.Shostakovich, symphonic and chamber music. The events unfolding in the world, which had survived the most destructive war in the history of human civilization, were dramatic and characterised by multi-vector directions of their development. The countries that joined the anti-Hitler coalition in the 40s, in the 60s were experiencing the peak of their ideological hostility, teetering on the verge of unleashing the third world war. At the same time, the Soviet Union, headed the unpredictable and highly controversial leader Nikita Khrushchev, pursued a policy of flirtations with liberalism in an attempt to overcome the cult of personality of Joseph Stalin and remove the notorious “Iron Curtain”, which for decades had protected the USSR from Western influence.

  • Aldeburgh Festival 2014, Aldeburgh, Suffolk, UK – Review’, Financial Times, June 16, 2014
    Richard Fairman, ‘Aldeburgh Festival 2014, Aldeburgh, Suffolk, UK – review’, Financial Times, June 16, 2014 As a coastal county, Suffolk has faced its fair share of activity in wartime. During the first world war Ipswich and Lowestoft were the target of enemy attacks. Nearby Orford Ness, a haunting wasteland now under the protection of the National Trust, still carries the scars of its years as a military research site, including unexploded bombs and atomic-era “pagodas” for weapons testing. A few miles up the coast the Aldeburgh Festival is taking the centenary of the first world war as the theme for this year’s programme. Visitors to Orford Ness and Snape, home of the Maltings concert hall, will find photographic installations by Anya Gallaccio, comprising hugely magnified images of local bomb-blasted materials; they have been created for Snap, the festival’s visual arts programme. Similarly, the first world war theme runs through many of this year’s concerts. Born in 1913, Benjamin Britten was nearly a child of the war and his lifelong pacifism may have its roots in that conflict. An exhibition at the Red House, the composer’s Aldeburgh home, includes documents that relate to his controversial period as a conscientious objector in the second world war and a horde of receipts (Britten never threw anything away) for donations to the Peace Pledge Union, CND, Medical Aid for Vietnam and others. It follows that the centrepiece of the 2014 festival should be one of Britten’s most outspoken anti-war works: his long-neglected opera Owen Wingrave. Originally written for television, the opera still tends to get a bad press on the few occasions when it is performed in the theatre.

  • Britten's Acoustic Miracles in Noye's Fludde and Curlew River
    Britten’s Acoustic Miracles in Noye’s Fludde and Curlew River A thesis submitted by Cole D. Swanson In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music TUFTS UNIVERSITY May 2017 Advisor: Alessandra Campana Readers: Joseph Auner Philip Rupprecht ii ABSTRACT Benjamin Britten sought to engage the English musical public through the creation of new theatrical genres that renewed, rather than simply reused, historical frameworks and religious gestures. I argue that Britten’s process in creating these genres and their representative works denotes an operation of theatrical and musical “re-enchantment,” returning spiritual and aesthetic resonance to the cultural relics of a shared British heritage. My study focuses particularly on how this process of renewal further enabled Britten to engage with the state of amateur and communal music participation in post-war England. His new, genre-bending works that I engage with represent conscious attempts to provide greater opportunities for amateur performance, as well cultivating sonically and thematically inclusive sound worlds. As such, Noye’s Fludde (1958) was designed as a means to revive the musical past while immersing the Aldeburgh Festival community in present musical performance through Anglican hymn singing. Curlew River (1964) stages a cultural encounter between the medieval past and the Japanese Nō theatre tradition, creating an atmosphere of sensory ritual that encourages sustained and empathetic listening. To explore these genre-bending works, this thesis considers how these musical and theatrical gestures to the past are reactions to the post-war revivalist environment as well as expressions of Britten’s own musical ethics and frustrations.

  • Billy Budd Composer Biography: Benjamin Britten
    Billy Budd Composer Biography: Benjamin Britten Britten was born, by happy coincidence, on St. Cecilia's Day, at the family home in Lowestoft, Suffolk, England. His father was a dentist. He was the youngest of four children, with a brother, Robert (1907), and two sisters, Barbara (1902) and Beth (1909). He was educated locally, and studied, first, piano, and then, later, viola, from private teachers. He began to compose as early as 1919, and after about 1922, composed steadily until his death. At a concert in 1927, conducted by composer Frank Bridge, he met Bridge, later showed him several of his compositions, and ultimately Bridge took him on as a private pupil. After two years at Gresham's School in Holt, Norfolk, he entered the Royal College of Music in London (1930) where he studied composition with John Ireland and piano with Arthur Benjamin. During his stay at the RCM he won several prizes for his compositions. He completed a choral work, A Boy was Born, in 1933; at a rehearsal for a broadcast performance of the work by the BBC Singers, he met tenor Peter Pears, the beginning of a lifelong personal and professional relationship. (Many of Britten's solo songs, choral and operatic works feature the tenor voice, and Pears was the designated soloist at many of their premieres.) From about 1935 until the beginning of World War II, Britten did a great deal of composing for the GPO Film Unit, for BBC Radio, and for small, usually left-wing, theater groups in London. During this period he met and worked frequently with the poet W.

  • Darkness Audible: Benjamin Britten at 100 - Middle, 1945-1970 Transcript
    Darkness Audible: Benjamin Britten at 100 - Middle, 1945-1970 Transcript Date: Thursday, 14 February 2013 - 6:00PM Location: Barnard's Inn Hall 14 February 2013 Darkness Audible: Benjamin Britten at 100 – Middle, 1945 - 1970 Dr Paul Kildea [Music plays] Britten’s first canticle written very much in the sway of the discoveries that he had been making since the late 1930s and very early 1940s, concerning the music of Purcell. I talked slightly about this last time, but it is worth remembering what exactly he thought about the music and how it changed the way he wrote his own. “One of my chief aims is to try and restore to the musical setting of the English language a brilliance, freedom and vitality that has been curiously rare since the death of Purcell. In the past hundred years, English writing for the voice has been dominated by strict subservience to logical speech rhythms, despite the fact that accentuation according to sense often contradicts the accentuation demanded by emotional content. Good recitative should transform the natural intonations and rhythms of everyday speech into memorable musical phrases, as with Purcell, but in more stylised music. The composer should not deliberately avoid unnatural stresses if the prosody of the poem and the emotional situation demand them, nor be afraid of a high-handed treatment of words which may need prolongation far beyond their common speech length or a speed of delivery that would be impossible in conversation.” It does not take long, listening to the opening of that canticle… [Plays] …where you have the two voices out of vertical alignment, if you like, and this untrammelled writing in the middle of it, which is all as written by the way – it is meant to sound like that! But it really is incredibly unmoored by this stage, and it was the idea that Britten would have two voices go apart and then bring them back at the end in that lovely choral that you hear.

  • Benjamin Britten
    FROM: AMERICAN BALLET THEATRE 890 Broadway New York, New York 10003 (212) 477-3030 Kelly Ryan BENJAMIN BRITTEN Benjamin Britten was born at Lowestoft, England in 1913 and died in Aldeburgh in 1976. He began composing at the age of five and during the following five years he wrote six string quartets and ten piano sonatas. While he was still in school, he studied piano with Harold Samuel and composition with Frank Bridge. He then won a scholarship at the Royal College of Music, where his composition teacher was John Ireland and his piano teacher was Arthur Benjamin. Among his early published works were many choral works and solo songs. His Variations on a Theme by Frank Bridge (for strings), was one of the early works which brought him into serious public notice (1937) and from the same period he began a considerable activity as a composer of music for over 20 documentary films, also providing incidental music for several stage plays. In 1940, he completed his Sinfonia da Requiem and his Seven Sonnets of Michelangelo (for tenor and piano; much sung by Peter Pears, his friend and a frequent interpreter of Britten’s music). Operatic activity became prominent from 1945, in which year his Peter Grimes was produced; it was followed by The Rape of Lucretia (1946), the comic opera Albert Herring (1947), a freely treated version of The Beggar’s Opera (1948), Let’s Make an Opera (for children, 1949), Billy Budd (1951), Midsummer Night’s Dream (1960), Owen Wingrave (1971, for television, and in 1973 for the stage) and Death in Venice (1973).
