Clemens Krauss, who had also written the libretto, was the conductor, and the role of Countess Madeleine, the main character, was taken by Krauss' s wife, the soprano Viorica Ursuleac. The year 1941 found Strauss and his own wife in poor health, depressed by the war, worried about prospects for their Jewish daughter-in-law and half- Jewish grandson, and dismayed by the ever more chilly treatment the composer was getting at the hands of the German government (Strauss was not a Nazi, but he was not an outspoken opponent either, and he despised the Nazis no more than any other political party).

  • Cape Breton Girl: Performing Cape Breton at Home and Away with Natalie Macmaster
    Cape Breton Girl: Performing Cape Breton at Home and Away with Natalie MacMaster KATHRYN ALEXANDER Abstract: Normative gendered and ethnic Scottish Cape Bretoner identity is constructed through traditional music and dance performance and practice. This article examines how Natalie MacMaster 43 (1): 89-111. 43 (1): constructs her gendered and ethnic identities as normative and quintessentially Cape Breton through her stage performances both on the island and internationally. The vision of Scottish Cape Bretonness she crafts shapes the perceptions and expectations of Cape Breton held by non-islander consumers of the MUSICultures island’s Scottish culture. As an unofficial cultural ambassador, MacMaster’s every performance, at home and away, becomes a tourism encounter that ties Cape Bretonness to ethnic whiteness, traditionalism, and heteronormativity. Résumé : L’identité écossaise de Cap Breton, pour ce qui est de la normativité du genre et de l’ethnicité, se construit au moyen de la performance et de la pratique de la musique et de la danse traditionnelles. Cet article examine la façon dont Natalie MacMaster construit son identité de genre et son identité ethnique dans une normativité typique du Cap Breton par le biais de ses spectacles, tant sur l’île qu’au niveau international. La représentation qu’elle donne du caractère écossais de Cap Breton façonne les perceptions qu’ont de l’île les consommateurs non insulaires, et leurs attentes au sujet de la culture écossaise de l’île. En tant qu’ambassadrice culturelle non officielle, chaque performance de MacMaster, tant dans son île qu’à l’étranger, devient une rencontre touristique qui lie l’identité de Cap Breton à l’ethnicité blanche, au traditionalisme et à l’hétéro-normativité.
