  • 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.

    Fall 2018 Spring Performances Celebrate Class of 2018 The Morris and Elfriede Stonzek Spring Performances, presented last May, served as a fitting celebration of the 2018 graduating class and a wonderful way to kick off Memorial Day weekend. In keeping with tradition, the performances opened with a presentation of the fifteen seniors who would receive their diplomas the following week—HARID’s largest-ever graduating class. Alex Srb photo © Srb photo Alex The program opened with The Fairy Doll Pas de Trois, staged by Svetlana Osiyeva and Meelis Pakri. Catherine Alex Srb © Alex Doherty sparkled as the fairy doll, in an exquisite pink tutu, while David Rathbun and Jaysan Stinnett (cast as the two A scene from the Black Swan Pas de Deux, Swan Lake, Act III pierrots competing for her attention) accomplished the challenging technical elements of the ballet while endearingly portraying their comedic characters. The next work on the program was the premiere of It Goes Without Saying, choreographed for HARID by resident choreographer Mark Godden. Set to music by Nico Muhly and rehearsed by Alexey Kulpin, this work stretched the artistic scope of the dancers by requiring them to speak on stage and move in unison to music that is not always melodically driven. The ballet featured a haunting pas de Alex Srb photo © Srb photo Alex deux, performed maturely by Anna Gonzalez and Alexis Alex Srb © Alex Valdes, and a spirited, playful duet for dancers Tiffany Chatfield and Chloe Crenshaw.
