  • Theatre and Music in Roman Macedonia
    TRIANTAFYllIA GIANNOU THEATRE AND MUSIC IN ROMAN MACEDONIA To Prof. G. M. Sifakis, with gratitude ABSTRACT: This article aims to examine theatrical and musical activ­ ity in the Macedonian region during the Roman era. Literary and epi­ graphic evidence, theatre buildings and dramatic monuments present only some facets of the diversity of cultural life in Roman Macedonia, which we endeavour to reconstitute. At the same time, through the extant scraps of information we attempt to trace the history of Greek theatre up to the end of the Imperial age, stressing the scenic and thymelic contests but also including the performances of musicians, mimes, pantomimes, and other “paratheatrical” artists. HE FIRST DECADES OF ROMAN SOVEREIGNTY over the Macedonian Tkingdom were a time of cultural and economic decline; gradually, how­ ever, some of the new administrative centres (e.g. Amphipolis and Thes­ salonike) would become active, Beroia would assume a more important role, and Roman colonies would be founded. This is the new political con­ text within which we shall be following both the continuation of pan­hel­ lenic and local theatrical and musical shows and the changes that emerged in the artistic and religious life of the Macedonians through the interven­ tions of the Roman administration and the impact of Roman culture gen­ erally. Our attention will focus on theatrical and musical events and on performances of “paratheatrical” artists: mimes, dancers, buffoons, con­ * This study was written within the framework of the “Ancient Theatre Electronic Docu­ mentation Project” (under the aegis of the Institute for Mediterranean Studies); the first part was published in Logeion 6 (2016); a version of it was published in Greek (2012).

  • Franz Schubert Written and Narrated by Jeremy Siepmann with Tom George As Schubert
    LIFE AND WORKS Franz Schubert Written and narrated by Jeremy Siepmann with Tom George as Schubert 8.558135–38 Life and Works: Franz Schubert Preface If music is ‘about’ anything, it’s about life. No other medium can so quickly or more comprehensively lay bare the very soul of those who make or compose it. Biographies confined to the limitations of text are therefore at a serious disadvantage when it comes to the lives of composers. Only by combining verbal language with the music itself can one hope to achieve a fully rounded portrait. In the present series, the words of composers and their contemporaries are brought to life by distinguished actors in a narrative liberally spiced with musical illustrations. Unlike the standard audio portrait, the music is not used here simply for purposes of illustration within a basically narrative context. Thus we often hear very substantial chunks, and in several cases whole movements, which may be felt by some to ‘interrupt’ the story; but as its title implies the series is not just about the lives of the great composers, it is also an exploration of their works. Dismemberment of these for ‘theatrical’ effect would thus be almost sacrilegious! Likewise, the booklet is more than a complementary appendage and may be read independently, with no loss of interest or connection.

Olympie de Spontini, entre tragédie lyrique et grand opéra Tout travail sur l’adaptation lyrique des œuvres littéraires a pour mérite d’attirer l’attention sur quelques titres oubliés de l’histoire de l’opéra, éclairés seulement par le nom illustre de l’écrivain qui en fournit la source. Le danger peut toutefois être double. On prêtera volontiers une trop grande attention à quelque œuvre mineure, rehaussée exagérément par une origine littéraire qu’elle ne mérite guère. On prêtera beaucoup, aussi, à tel écrivain censé avoir nourri, à son corps défendant et en tout anachronisme, tantôt le melodramma romantique, tantôt le grand opéra historique, simplement parce que ces genres lyriques ont puisé dans son œuvre.

  • Spontini's Olimpie: Between Tragédie Lyrique and Grand Opéra
    Spontini’s Olimpie : between tragédie lyrique and grand opéra Olivier Bara Any study of operatic adaptations of literary works has the merit of draw - ing attention to forgotten titles from the history of opera, illuminated only by the illustrious name of the writer who provided their source. The danger, however, may be twofold. It is easy to lavish excessive attention on some minor work given exaggerated importance by a literary origin of which it is scarcely worthy. Similarly, much credit may be accorded to such-and-such a writer who is supposed – however unwittingly and anachronistically – to have nurtured the Romantic melodramma or the historical grand opéra , simply because those operatic genres have drawn on his or her work. The risk is of creating a double aesthetic confusion, with the source work obscured by the adapted work, which in turn obscures its model. In the case of Olimpie , the tragédie lyrique of Gaspare Spontini, the first danger is averted easily enough: the composer of La Vestale deserves our interest in all his operatic output, even in a work that never enjoyed the expected success in France. There remains the second peril. Olimpie the tragédie lyrique , premiered in its multiple versions between 1819 and 1826, is based on a tragedy by Voltaire dating from 1762. Composed in a period of transition by a figure who had triumphed during the Empire period, it is inspired by a Voltaire play less well known (and less admired) than Zaïre , Sémiramis or Le Fanatisme . Hence Spontini’s work, on which its Voltairean origin sheds but little light, initially seems enigmatic in 59 gaspare spontini: olimpie aesthetic terms: while still faithful to the subjects and forms of the tragédie lyrique , it has the reputation of having blazed the trail for Romantic grand opéra , so that Voltaire might be seen, through a retrospective illusion, as a distant instigator of that genre.

Ben ik schuldig, omdat ik zelf heb bemind – buiten mijn stand, in een vreemde cultuur, een andere godsdienst? Is het niet aanmatigend over schuld te spreken, als enkel de liefde de wonden van de mensheid kan genezen? Suis-je coupable d’avoir été aimée, même avec mon corps ? Suis-je coupable d’avoir aimé hors de mon rang, de ma culture et sous un autre dieu ?
