  • Scaramouche and the Commedia Dell'arte
    Scaramouche Sibelius’s horror story Eija Kurki © Finnish National Opera and Ballet archives / Tenhovaara Scaramouche. Ballet in 3 scenes; libr. Paul [!] Knudsen; mus. Sibelius; ch. Emilie Walbom. Prod. 12 May 1922, Royal Dan. B., CopenhaGen. The b. tells of a demonic fiddler who seduces an aristocratic lady; afterwards she sees no alternative to killinG him, but she is so haunted by his melody that she dances herself to death. Sibelius composed this, his only b. score, in 1913. Later versions by Lemanis in Riga (1936), R. HiGhtower for de Cuevas B. (1951), and Irja Koskkinen [!] in Helsinki (1955). This is the description of Sibelius’s Scaramouche, Op. 71, in The Concise Oxford Dictionary of Ballet. Initially, however, Sibelius’s Scaramouche was not a ballet but a pantomime. It was completed in 1913, to a Danish text of the same name by Poul Knudsen, with the subtitle ‘Tragic Pantomime’. The title of the work refers to Italian theatre, to the commedia dell’arte Scaramuccia character. Although the title of the work is Scaramouche, its main character is the female dancing role Blondelaine. After Scaramouche was completed, it was then more or less forgotten until it was published five years later, whereupon plans for a performance were constantly being made until it was eventually premièred in 1922. Performances of Scaramouche have 1 attracted little attention, and also Sibelius’s music has remained unknown. It did not become more widely known until the 1990s, when the first full-length recording of this remarkable composition – lasting more than an hour – appeared. Previous research There is very little previous research on Sibelius’s Scaramouche.

  • Sensing the City – Mapping the Beat
    Sensing the City – Mapping the Beat A rhythmanalysis of music-making in Wellington and Copenhagen By Katie Rochow A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Victoria University of Wellington (2017) Abstract The idea of rhythm has figured as a key conceptual and empirical motif in current research on (urban) space, place and everyday life. Urban spaces are considered polyrhythmic fields, a compound of varied everyday life and spatial rhythms, which produce a particular, but ever-changing, complex mix of heterogeneous social interactions, mobilities, imaginaries and materialities (Edensor 2010). Music-making in the city therefore constitutes and is constituted by a plurality of urban rhythms including the movement between different locations as well as regular temporal patterns of events, activities, experiences and practices as well as energies, objects, flora and fauna which shape the music-maker’s mundane ‘pathways’ through the city. Based on current ethnographic fieldwork in the urban spaces of Wellington (Aotearoa/New Zealand), and Copenhagen (Denmark) this project proposes a way of capturing, understanding and interpreting the multi-faceted rhythmical layout of urban spaces. It will do so by introducing a rhythmanalytical methodology, which draws on interviews, participant generated photographs and mental maps as analytical tools for capturing the interwovenness of socialities, atmospheres, object, texts and images in people’s everyday lives and in this way affords opportunities for attending to the multiple rhythms underlying music-making in the city. The use of cartographic and photographic means of representing these rhythmical dimensions allows us to better attend to an affective register that is often overlooked in studies of music-making.

Tove Ditlevsen’s life and work freely interpreted by the artist collective Sort Samvittighed Cast: Jeanett Albeck, Rikke Bilde, Tilde Maja Fredriksen, Kitt Maiken Mortensen and Leila Vestgaard Director: Elisa Kragerup Set and costume designer: Ida Marie Ellekilde Music: Jeanett Albeck Choreographer: Signe Fabricius Lighting designer: Sara Åkerlund Clemmensen Revival: Royal Danish Playhouse, Main Stage, 18 August 2016 THE PLAYHOUSE MAIN STAGE 18 AUGUST – 10 SEPTEMBER 2016 Tapping into Tove Ditlevsen’s poetic vigour, the artist collective Sort Samvittighed staged last season’s poignant portrayal of the vulnerable and worldly-wise Copenhagen writer. Ditlevsen was a master of interpreting the honest brutality of life, and with her touching portrayal of childhood, adolescence and adulthood she gave the modern woman a piercingly clear voice. The author’s life and work melded together, as when she candidly reported on the status of her marriages, drug addiction, depression, hospital admissions and alcohol abuse. All while she advised readers on family matters and relationships as a popular agony aunt. Tove! Tove! Tove! enjoyed sold-out performances and also toured the nation. Now, the Main Stage beckons with a revival of the staging that received a Reumert Award as the Music Performance of the Year as well as Teaterforeningernes Prize as the Touring Performance of the Year, 2015. ‘You either get in the game or get out of the way,’ as we used to say on our street, but I was a both/and person who wanted everything at once. - Tove Ditlevsen ★★★★★ ♥♥♥♥♥ Berlingske Politiken Performances are in Danish.
