  • Heinrich Neuhaus and Alternative Narratives of Selfhood in Soviet Russi
    ‘I wish for my life’s roses to have fewer thorns’: Heinrich Neuhaus and Alternative Narratives of Selfhood in Soviet Russia Abstract Heinrich Neuhaus (1888—1964) was the Soviet era’s most iconic musicians. Settling in Russia reluctantly he was dismayed by the policies of the Soviet State and unable to engage with contemporary narratives of selfhood in the wake of the Revolution. In creating a new aesthetic territory that defined himself as Russian rather than Soviet Neuhaus embodied an ambiguous territory whereby his views both resonated with and challenged aspects of Soviet- era culture. This article traces how Neuhaus adopted the idea of self-reflective or ‘autobiographical’ art through an interdisciplinary melding of ideas from Boris Pasternak, Alexander Blok and Mikhail Vrubel. In exposing the resulting tension between his understanding of Russian and Soviet selfhood, it nuances our understanding of the cultural identities within this era. Finally, discussing this tension in relation to Neuhaus’s contextualisation of the artistic persona of Dmitri Shostakovich, it contributes to a long- needed reappraisal of his relationship with the composer. I would like to gratefully acknowledge the support of the Guildhall School that enabled me to make a trip to archives in Moscow to undertake research for this article. Dr Maria Razumovskaya Guildhall School of Music & Drama, London Word count: 15,109 Key words: identity, selfhood, Russia, Heinrich Neuhaus, Soviet, poetry Contact email: [email protected] Short biographical statement: Maria Razumovskaya completed her doctoral thesis (Heinrich Neuhaus: Aesthetics and Philosophy of an Interpretation, 2015) as an AHRC doctoral scholar at the Royal College of Music in London.

Molto vivace Allegro con fuoco Duration: approx. 40 minutes Concertmasters: Tijana Milošević and Miroslav Pavlović At the proposal of the composer and member of the renowned Mighty Handful Mily Balakirev, the young artist Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov (1844– 1908) wrote Fantasia on Serbian Themes in 1867. Balakirev wanted to include another piece to be performed at a pan-Slavic music concert in addition to his Overture on Czech Themes. For this purpose, he had collected several Serbian themes, which he handed over to Korsakov for further elaboration. The composer wrote the piece instantly, and later declared that it was not so much the feeling of pan-Slavism that had inspired him, but rather the beauty of the themes. The piece premiered on 24 May 1867, under the baton of Mily Balakirev, and achieved great success. A year later, in a concert review, Tchaikovsky commended the orchestration and structural inventiveness of the composition, which finally opened the door of the already influential Mighty Handful for young Korsakov. Twenty years alter, Rimsky-Korsakov revised the piece, which was subsequently published in the version still performed today.
