Abstract This monograph examines the post-exile, multi-version works of Sergei Rachmaninoff with a view to unravelling the sophisticated web of meanings and values attached to them. Compositional revision is an important and complex aspect of creating musical meaning. Considering revision offers an important perspective on the construction and circulation of meanings and discourses attending Rachmaninoff’s music. While Rachmaninoff achieved international recognition during the 1890s as a distinctively Russian musician, I argue that Rachmaninoff’s return to certain compositions through revision played a crucial role in the creation of a narrative and set of tropes representing “Russian diaspora” following the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution.

  • Rachmaninoff's Early Piano Works and the Traces of Chopin's Influence
    Rachmaninoff’s Early Piano works and the Traces of Chopin’s Influence: The Morceaux de Fantaisie, Op.3 & The Moments Musicaux, Op.16 A document submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in the Division of Keyboard Studies of the College-Conservatory of Music by Sanghie Lee P.D., Indiana University, 2011 B.M., M.M., Yonsei University, Korea, 2007 Committee Chair: Jonathan Kregor, Ph.D. Abstract This document examines two of Sergei Rachmaninoff’s early piano works, Morceaux de Fantaisie, Op.3 (1892) and Moments Musicaux, Opus 16 (1896), as they relate to the piano works of Frédéric Chopin. The five short pieces that comprise Morceaux de Fantaisie and the six Moments Musicaux are reminiscent of many of Chopin’s piano works; even as the sets broadly build on his character genres such as the nocturne, barcarolle, etude, prelude, waltz, and berceuse, they also frequently are modeled on or reference specific Chopin pieces. This document identifies how Rachmaninoff’s sets specifically and generally show the influence of Chopin’s style and works, while exploring how Rachmaninoff used Chopin’s models to create and present his unique compositional identity. Through this investigation, performers can better understand Chopin’s influence on Rachmaninoff’s piano works, and therefore improve their interpretations of his music. ii Copyright © 2018 by Sanghie Lee All rights reserved iii Acknowledgements I cannot express my heartfelt gratitude enough to my dear teacher James Tocco, who gave me devoted guidance and inspirational teaching for years.

  • Nicolai Fechin [1881–1955] This Russian-American Painter Brought His Intensely Creative Spirit and Genius for Portraiture to the American West
    WESTERN VISTA PERSPECTIVE: NICOLAI FECHIN [1881–1955] This Russian-American painter brought his intensely creative spirit and genius for portraiture to the American West WRITTEN BY Gussie Fauntleroy In 1895 in the Russian town of Kazan, a trading port and cultural crossroads on the wide Volga River, 13-year-old Nicolai Ivanovich Fechin stood at a crossroads in life. His father was a masterful artisan skilled in woodworking, archi- tecture, painting, gilding and cabinetry, but less adept at business, and the family had to give up their home. Nicolai’s brother and mother were mov- ing to another town to live with the boys’ grandmother, while their father would travel from village to village as an itinerant craftsman. Young Nicolai could have gone with either parent. Instead, he chose a third, and fortuitous, path. That same year, a graduate Self Portrait of the Imperial Academy of Arts in Saint Petersburg had opened a branch school in Oil on Canvas | 10.5 x 9.5 inches Kazan. It offered painting, sculpture, architecture and general education instruction Private collection to youth from families of all means, not only the wealthy. Nicolai, having spent his boyhood happily engaged in drawing and woodcarving in his father’s workshop, decided to stay in Kazan and attend the school. His father proudly approved. With a classmate, the boy moved into a disused house and subsisted on little more than bread, honey and tea while he attended the six-year school. “It was kind of a miraculous piece of providence. Without that school, Fechin would have needed either a patron or money to hire a master to teach him art, which of course his family didn’t have,” says Susan Fisher, director of the Taos Art rtMusuem Museum in New Mexico, which holds a collection of Fechin paintings, most on A aos long-term loan from private collections.

  • The Jamison Galleries Collection
    THE JAMISON GALLERIES COLLECTION BETTY W. AND ZEB B. CONLEY PAPERS New Mexico Museum of Art Library and Archives Dates: 1950 - 1995 Extent: 7.33 linear feet Contents Part One. Materials on Artists and Sculptors Part Two. Photographs of Works Part Three. Additional Material Revised 01/11/2018 Preliminary Comments The Jamison Galleries [hereafter referred to simply as “the Gallery”] were located on East Palace Avenue, Santa Fe, from August 1964 until January 1993, at which time it was moved to Montezuma Street. There it remained until December 1997, when it closed its doors forever. Originally owned by Margaret Jamison, it was sold by her in 1974 to Betty W. and Zeb B. Conley. The Library of the Museum of Fine Arts is indebted to the couple for the donation of this Collection. A similar collection was acquired earlier by the Library of the records of the Contemporaries Gallery. Some of the artists who exhibited their works at this Gallery also showed at The Contemporaries Gallery. Included in the works described in this collection are those of several artists whose main material is indexed in their own Collections. This collection deals with the works of a vast array of talented artists and sculptors; and together with The Contemporaries Gallery Collection, they comprise a definitive representation of southwestern art of the late 20th Century. Part One contains 207 numbered Folders. Because the contents of some are too voluminous to be limited to one folder, they have been split into lettered sub-Folders [viz. Folder 79-A, 79-B, etc.]. Each numbered Folder contains material relating to a single artist or sculptor, all arranged — and numbered — alphabetically.

RUSSIA If some observers are perturbed by the ostensible westernization of contemporary Russia and the threat to the distinctiveness of her nationhood, they should look beyond the fitnes-klub and the shopping-tsentr – to the persistent absurdities and paradoxes still deeply characteristic of Russian culture. In Moscow, for example, paradoxes and enigmas abound – to the bewilderment of the Western tourist and to the gratification of the Russianist, all of whom may ask why – 1. the Leningradskoe Highway goes to St. Petersburg; 2. the metro stop for the Russian State Library is still called Lenin Library Station; 3. there are two different stations called “Arbatskaia” on two different metro lines and two different stations called “Smolenskaia” on two different metro lines; 4.

  • Rachmaninoff, Isle of the Dead, Op. 29
    Sergei RACHMANINOFF rg Isle of the Dead, Op. 29 Sergei Vasilyevich Rachmaninoff (1 April 1873 – 28 March 1943) was a Russian composer, virtuoso pianist, and conductor. Born into a musical aristocratic family, Rachmaninoff enrolled in piano lessons at age 4, and began studying at the Saint Petersburg Conservatory at age 10. A somewhat failing domestic life, however, distracted Rachmaninoff from his early studies, as two of his sisters would die from disease before the age of 18, and his father – who lost 4 of the 5 family estates through his financial incompetence and gambling habits – left the family to live in Moscow. Upon his struggles, his cousin, Alexander Siloti – an accomplished pianist studying under Franz Liszt – suggested for Rachmaninoff to study at the Moscow Conservatory under his strict former teacher, Nikolai Zverev. Rachmaninoff would go on to study under Siloti himself, and graduated from the conservatory a year early, requesting to do his final exams prematurely to avoid studying under a new teacher after hearing that Siloti was leaving Moscow. After launching his compositional career, Rachmaninoff fell into a depression after learning of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s death, who had agreed to conduct his tone poem, The Rock (1893). Through his struggles, Rachmaninoff cancelled a Russian tour, pawned a gold watch given to him by Zverev, and debuted his Symphony No. 1 (1895) which was widely criticized – in large part due to conductor Alexander Glazunov’s misuse of rehearsal time and possible drunkenness during the performance. Following a 3-year writer’s block, Rachmaninoff would get counselling from Nikolai Dahl and compose his Piano Concerto No.

RUSSIA To those who remember the USSR, the Soviet Union was an empire of emptiness. Common words and expressions were “defitsit” [deficit], “dostat’”, [get hold of], “seraia zhizn’” [grey life], “pusto” [empty], “magazin zakryt na uchet” [store closed for accounting] or “na pereuchet” [for a second accounting] or “na remont” (for repairs)_ or simply “zakryt”[closed]. There were no malls, no traffic, no household trash, no money, no consumer stores or advertisements, no foreign newspapers, no freedoms, often no ball-point pens or toilet-paper, and if something like bananas from Cuba suddenly appeared in the wasteland, they vanished within minutes.

Date Anne Swartz Chair of Examining Committee Date Norman Carey Executive Officer Supervisory Committee: Geoffrey Burleson Sylvia Kahan Ursula Oppens THE CITY UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK iii ABSTRACT Rachmaninoff and the Flexibility of the Score: Issues Regarding Performance Practice by Tanya Gabrielian Advisor: Geoffrey Burleson Sergei Rachmaninoff’s piano music is a staple of piano literature, but academia has been slower to embrace his works. Because he continued to compose firmly in the Romantic tradition at a time when Debussy, Stravinsky, and Schoenberg variously represented the vanguard of composition, Rachmaninoff’s popularity has consequently not been as robust in the musicological community.
