David Brodbeck The Professor and the Sea Princess: Letters of Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov and Nadezhda Zabela-Vrubel EDITED BY MARINA FROLOVA-WALKER TRANSLATED BY JONATHAN WALKER I am still filled, my dear, dear friend, Filled with your visage, filled with you! . It is as if a light-winged angel Descended to converse with me. Leaving the angel at the threshold Of holy heaven, now alone, I gather some angelic feathers Shed by rainbow wings . —Apollon Maykov (1852), set by Rimsky-Korsakov as No. 4 of his Opus 50 songs and dedicated to Nadezhda Zabela-Vrubel “I am rather dry by nature,” confessed Rimsky-Korsakov in one of his letters.1 This is indeed the prevailing impression we are likely to draw from his biographies, or even from his own memoirs. We know so much about the externals of his life, and yet the inner man somehow eludes us, obscured by his professorial image: a kindly but reserved man, with a pos- itive outlook on life, dignified and of impeccable morals. The contrast with the wild biographies of Musorgsky and Tchaikovsky allows us to suppose that Rimsky-Korsakov was really rather ordinary, even a little dreary. 1. Maykov’s Russian original of the epigraph above is as follows: Yeshcho ya poln, o drug moy milïy, / Tvoim yavlen'yem, poln toboy!. ./ Kak budto angel legkokrïlïy / Sletal besedovat' so mnoy, / I, provodiv yego v preddver'ye svyatïkh nebes, ya bez nego / Sbirayu vïpavshiye per'ya / Iz krïl'yev raduzhnïkh yego… • 3 • For general queries, contact [email protected] © Copyright, Princeton University Press.

  • The Celestial City Brought Down to Earth: Dmitry Tcherniakov's Interpretation Of
    The celestial city brought down to earth: Dmitry Tcherniakov’s interpretation of Rimsky-Korsakov’s opera The Invisible city of Kitezh and the Maiden Fevroniya Francis Maes The great cultural flowering of fin de siècle Russia has been justifiably termed a Silver Age. Why a Silver and not a Golden Age? From the perspective of literature, the period may have lacked writers of the stature of Pushkin, Tolstoy or Dostoyevsky. From the broader perspective of the cultural field in its entirety, however, the Silver Age had no rival in any period of Russian cultural history. It has been compared to the great flowerings of Periclean Athens and Renaissance England.1 All artistic disciplines flourished; painting, sculpture, architecture, design, as well as literature, theater, dance and music. The Silver Age was also a period par excellence in which the artists, scientists, and scholars consciously endeavored to dispel all shadows of provincialism. Artists did not necessarily abandon their specifically Russian subject matter or stylistic peculiarities. On the contrary, they reveled in their world filled with the heroes of Russian legends, ethnographic customs and virtuosic folk ornamentation. However, they chose to incorporate these themes into cosmopolitan trends, such as l’art pour l’art aestheticism or symbolism. These cosmopolitan developments offered Russian artists new ways to incorporate Russian material into an international field of reference. Nikolay Rimsky-Korsakov’s penultimate opera, The legend of the invisible city of Kitezh and the Maiden Fevroniya counts among the most precious manifestations of this development. Rimsky-Korsakov composed The legend of the invisible city of Kitezh and the Maiden Fevroniya in 1903-1904 after several unsuccessful attempts to shed his folkloristic and nationalistic profile.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov the Antiquarian: The Narrativity of Diegetic Song in the Opera Sadko A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Musicology by Jeffrey T. Riggs 2019 © Copyright by Jeffrey T. Riggs 2019 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov the Antiquarian: The Narrativity of Diegetic Song in the Opera Sadko by Jeffrey T. Riggs Doctor of Philosophy in Musicology University of California, Los Angeles, 2019 Professor Mitchell Bryan Morris, Chair Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov subtitled Sadko “an Opera-Bylina,” a gesture which both reveals his compositional approach, and gives the piece a sui generis designation as an operatic and folk-epic hybrid. The composer drew from an extraordinary range of textual and musical material to fashion Sadko, a work that is thoroughly imbued with references to Russian folk culture. His primary source texts were the Russian byliny: folk-epic poetry that had circulated orally for some seven centuries before being collected and transcribed in the nineteenth century. While Rimsky-Korsakov’s preoccupation with folklore represents a thematic continuation of his prior operas, his approach to his source material takes a decidedly antiquarian and philological turn in Sadko. ii Rimsky-Korsakov’s transmutation of the byliny into operatic form involved his development of a set of narrative strategies that approximate the storytelling conventions of the source texts. Rimsky-Korsakov includes multiple narrators in the opera who present Sadko’s tale through different narrative frames, chronotopes, and musical idioms. The arias of each narrator constitute moments of heightened narrativity, in which the events of the plot are condensed, refracted, retold, and foretold through the prism of diegetic song.

    1996 ACF Regionals Questions by Cornell 1. Among his achievements are the discovery of the method of fluxions and fluents; the discovery of the binomial theorem; and the construction of the first reflecting telescope. Elected to the Royal Academy for his optical discoveries, such as that white light is composed of every color in the spectrum, he became President of the Royal Society from 1703 until his death in 1727. For 10 points, who is this English scientist whose works are summed up in the 1704 Opticks and 1687 Principia Mathematica? Answer: Isaac Newton 2. It was not the death of his cousin Joachim whom he had been visiting, but rather the outbreak of World War I that finally makes him leave. A three-week visit stretched into a seven-year stay at Haus Berghof in the Swiss Alps, as he had been caught up in the company of Clavdia and Peeperkorn. For 10 points, who is this protagonist of Thomas Mann's The Magic Mountain? Answer: Hans Castoro 3. As a general term, it referred to any slave trained as a soldier, such as those serving under Caliph AI-Mu'tasim, but it is now most associated with the Circassians and Turks. They formed the personal body guard of the Egyptian caliphs and sultans, and were an important part of the Turkish army. For 10 points, name this group that in 1250 overthrew the sultanate and ruled Egypt until defeated by the Ottomans in 1517. Answer: Mamluk or Mameluke(s) 4. One of the earliest was the Vailala Madness in Papua in 1919, and others have included the Mambu, Yaliwan's Yangoru movement, and Jon Frum in Tanna and Vanuatu.
