Part, a By Brian Wise composer of deep religious convictions who grew up under the Soviet regime, uses the “tintinnabular” method in Mein, a work that is both ancient sounding Jean Sibelius (1865-1957) and contemporary. With its pulsating rhythms and simple melodies in endless permutations it also is indebted to the minimalist scores of Philip Glass and Suite champêtre, op. 98b (1922) Steve Reich. Jean Sibelius, who died fi fty years ago this year, stands for Finland better than Verdi stands for Italy or Dvorak represents the Czech people. The composer (1865-1957) still Jean Sibelius (1865-1957) dominates Finland’s musical infrastructure, its legends and Rakastava (“The Lover”), op. 14 (1911) atmosphere, and his music remains its biggest artistic export. He is best known for his sprawling, enigmatic symphonies, In case the title didn’t give it away, Sibelius’s Rakastava a masterful Violin Concerto, as well as nationalistic tone (“The Lover”) suggests the fl eetness of an intense poems like Finlandia and Valse Triste. But Sibelius was relationship. The piece is a string orchestra arrangement of also a master of brevity, as evidenced by his suites, dances an early a cappella choral work based on a collection of 19th- and character pieces for various ensembles. Indeed, after century folk verse. There’s an uncommon tenderness and fi nishing his Seventh Symphony in 1924 and the tone poem Tapiola in 1926, he intimacy throughout its three movements as well as many composed no large-scale works for the remaining thirty years of his life. But charming touches. Like his Suite champêtre, Rakastava even earlier, he was writing short pieces including a trio of suites for string is largely in the minor mode. The opening section, “The orchestra. Beloved,” recalls a genre sometimes called “Scandinavian elegiac” (Grieg was a prime advocate) and yet transcends Among them is the 1921 Suite champêtre, comprised of three short sections, the genre by avoiding harmonic clichés. The brisk, brief middle movement each with a charming, innocent appeal that shows off Sibelius’ lyrical gifts. “The Way (or Path) of the Lover,” features pulsating triplets and ends almost as The fi rst movement, “Pièce caractéristique,” contains echoes of Sibelius’ soon as it has begun. The fi nale, “Good Night, My Beloved -- Farewell” harkens boyhood idol, Tchaikovsky, and is cast in D minor. The second movement, back to the opening section though tinged with the sweet sorrow of parting. “Mélodie élégiaque,” is fl owing and warmly melancholic while “Danse” recalls Sibelius himself had high regard for Rakastava, describing it as “a work with a something of the fairytale atmosphere of some of the composer’s incidental vein of black earth running through it.

    “Savage and Deformed”: Stigma as Drama in The Tempest Jeffrey R. Wilson The dramatis personae of The Tempest casts Caliban as “asavageand deformed slave.”1 Since the mid-twentieth century, critics have scrutinized Caliban’s status as a “slave,” developing a riveting post-colonial reading of the play, but I want to address the pairing of “savage and deformed.”2 If not Shakespeare’s own mixture of moral and corporeal abominations, “savage and deformed” is the first editorial comment on Caliban, the “and” here Stigmatized as such, Caliban’s body never comes to us .”ס“ working as an uninterpreted. It is always already laden with meaning. But what, if we try to strip away meaning from fact, does Caliban actually look like? The ambiguous and therefore amorphous nature of Caliban’s deformity has been a perennial problem in both dramaturgical and critical studies of The Tempest at least since George Steevens’s edition of the play (1793), acutely since Alden and Virginia Vaughan’s Shakespeare’s Caliban: A Cultural His- tory (1993), and enduringly in recent readings by Paul Franssen, Julia Lup- ton, and Mark Burnett.3 Of all the “deformed” images that actors, artists, and critics have assigned to Caliban, four stand out as the most popular: the devil, the monster, the humanoid, and the racial other. First, thanks to Prospero’s yarn of a “demi-devil” (5.1.272) or a “born devil” (4.1.188) that was “got by the devil himself” (1.2.319), early critics like John Dryden and Joseph War- ton envisioned a demonic Caliban.4 In a second set of images, the reverbera- tions of “monster” in The Tempest have led writers and artists to envision Caliban as one of three prodigies: an earth creature, a fish-like thing, or an animal-headed man.

  • Valse Triste, Op. 44, No. 1
    Much of the Sibelius Violin Concerto’s beauty comes from its eccentricity — while it has elements of a traditional Romantic concerto, Sibelius constantly asks the musicians to play in quirky, counterintuitive ways, and often pits the soloist and orchestra against each other. BOB ANEMONE, NCS VIOLIN Valse triste, Op. 44, No. 1 JEAN SIBELIUS BORN December 8, 1865, in Hämeenlinna, Finland; died September 20, 1957, in Järvenpää, Finland PREMIERE Composed 1903; first performance December 2, 1903, in Helsinki, conducted by the composer OVERVIEW Though Sibelius is universally recognized as the Finnish master of the symphony, tone poem, and concerto, he also produced a large amount of music in the more intimate forms, including the scores for 11 plays — the music to accompany a 1926 production of Shakespeare’s The Tempest was his last orchestral work. Early in 1903, Sibelius composed the music to underscore six scenes of a play by his brother-in-law, Arvid Järnefelt, titled Kuolema (“Death”). Among the music was a piece accompanying the scene in which Paavali, the central character, is seen at the bedside of his dying mother. She tells him that she has dreamed of attending a ball. Paavali falls asleep, and Death enters to claim his victim. The mother mistakes Death for her deceased husband and dances away with him. Paavali awakes to find her dead. Sibelius gave little importance to this slight work, telling a biographer that “with all retouching [it] was finished in a week.” Two years later he arranged the music for solo piano and for chamber orchestra as Valse triste (“Sad Waltz”), and sold it outright to his publisher, Fazer & Westerlund, for a tiny fee.

  • The Tempest and the Discourse of Colonialism
    SYDNEY STUDIES The Tempest and the Discourse of Colonialism G. A. WILKES If the study of Shakespeare itself can be viewed as an act of cultural imperialism, a play like The Tempest can readily be seen as a text which is complicit with colonial power. Prospero is the usurping invader, nervous about the legitimacy of his rule, and Caliban is the representative of the subjugated race, his language lessons seen as an attempt to eradicate his own culture, or to bring it under imperialist control. The best way of entry into this debate is still Stephen Greenblatt's essay of 1976, 'Learning to Curse: Aspects of Linguistic Colonialism in the Sixteenth Century', though its implications may not yet have been fully grasped. l Greenblatt begins with the prospect held out in Samuel Daniel's Musophilus (1599), that in the New World the 'unknowing Nations' are to be enriched with 'the treasure of our tongue', and in this vast civilizing process of the future, who can say What worlds in th' yet unformed Occident May come refin'd with th' accents that are ours? Greenblatt cites Spanish, Portuguese and English authorities to show the assumptions that underlie or accompany this prophecy: that the inhabitants of the new world were without a culture of their own; that they had no language, or else language at the level of gibberish; that they might conform to European conceptions of the Wild Man, or that they might be hardly distinguishable from beasts. Although Greenblatt adduces The Tempest for its exploration of these issues, he does not fit it to any paradigm.
