T6] "KHOVANSTCHINA": PRELUDE TO ACT I By Modest Petrovich Moussorgsky Born at Karevo, in the government of Pskov, on March 21, 1839; died at St. Petersburg on March 28, 1881 Moussorgsky wrote the larger part of the opera "Khovanstchina" between the years ,1872 and 1875, working on it intermittently through the remaining six years of his life. His colleague, Rimsky-Korsakov, filled out and fully orchestrated the score in 1881. The first performance was at St. Petersburg in 1885. There was a performance in Moscow in 1897. The orchestration of the Prelude calls for two flutes, two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons, four horns, timpani, harp, tam-tam, and strings. "\T hovanstchina is a formidable name, especially when written as J\ ' Chowdnschtschina,' in the German transliteration" (so writes Oskar von Riesemann, in his readable life of Moussorgsky). "The word (the accent is on the first 'a') looks as if it were invented to dis- play the tongue-twisting properties of the Russian language. The last syllables hiss like a brood of snakes. What is the meaning of this monstrous word? Nothing much — its sense is more innocent than GLEAMING PATENT FOR EARLY SPRING Sleek as a panther, black as ebony, and surprisingly soft and supple is the new patent . one of the highlights of Spring.

The last syllables are only a contemptuous suffix in Russian, like '-ery' in English. When the young Czar Peter (not yet 'the Great') was told of a plot that the two Princes Khovansky had formed against him, he dismissed the whole affair with a contemptu- ous shrug, and the word ' Khovanstchinal' and gave orders to let the matter drop. The 'dropping' meant that the two Princes Khovansky, father and son, were publicly hanged; but otherwise the conspiracy had no further result, so far as the Russian Empire was concerned." Moussorgsky devised a different end for each of them, to suit his dramatic purposes, but was otherwise essentially faithful to history. His introduction, Moussorgsky calls "Dawn on the Moskva River." It is a musical landscape in which the composer prepares his audience to see the quarters of the Streltsi in Moscow, in the early morning. Riesemann attributes the "five melodic variations" which are the basis of this prelude to "a method of musical expression long familiar to the Russian people, through their popular songs. When a song is sung in a Russian village — especially by several singers in succession — no two stanzas are usually sung alike. Each singer tries to introduce indi- vidual variations in the melody to suit his or her own voice and mood, and in accordance with the meaning of the particular verse. Thus the song loses all rigidity and seems to be a living, breathing organism, it's spring here and clothes were never so excit- ing ... so feminine . and so different . soft suits with chic dressmaker touches . coats with dash and flare such as only Fredleys can achieve ... in Wellesley, too.

SIMM! [Q] capable of varying with every moment. This peculiarity of Russian folk-song becomes in Moussorgsky's hands a most effective means of musical expression, which he employs in many of his works, and nowhere more successfully than in this prelude; it is always the same landscape, somewhat melancholy and monotonous, that we see before us, and yet it seems constantly to change its appearance, in accordance with the changing light." When in 1872 Moussorgsky took up the subject of this struggle be- tween the old and new Russia of the seventeenth century, he had reached the fullest ardor of his creative forces.

  • Download Levitz Musicological Elite.Pdf
    The Musicological Elite Tamara Levitz Musicologists have been gripped by the desire to democratize, diversify, decolonize, and popularize their discipline. Driven by a growing moral demand to challenge the Eurocentric, heteronormative, exclusionary, colonial, settler colonial, non-diverse, and white supremacist legacies of a discipline plagued by its rootedness in European classical musical tradi- tions, they have recently accelerated their efforts to expand the traditional canon, reform curriculum, and explore new mediums for the dissemina- tion of ideas (for example, “popular” internet blogs over expensive aca- demic monographs). In spring 2017, the Department of Music at Harvard University symbolically led the charge in this effort by announcing they would no longer require music theory and other courses, but rather ask students to pick “no more than two” of each type of course in their pro- gram, design their study plan with the Director of Undergraduate Studies, and include a rationale that outlines their path through the major. The only requirements left are the “Concentration Tutorials” that include courses on “Thinking about Music” and “Critical Listening.”1 Harvard Professors stressed that this change would create more “flexible pathways” through their program, eliminate the class-based implicit requirements to enter it, and, most importantly, allow for a greater diversity of students and student interests.2 Reactions to these plans on social media have been vehement and fiercely divided.3 That the standard curriculum in musicology programs has become an open wound or festering reminder of the labor injustice, class division, exclusions, structures of white supremacy, and inequality in the discipline became apparent again in October 2017, when an acrimonious debate, this time about eliminating the language requirements in musicology programs, erupted on the listserv of the American Musicological Society.

I conducted four pieces as part of the recital, including “The Hands that First Held Mary’s Child” by Dan Forrest, “Remember” from Two Rossetti Songs by Stephen Chatman, “The Moon is Distant from the Sea” by David N. Childs, and “Sleigh Ride” arranged by Andy Beck. Preparing to conduct these pieces involved a lot of work, much of which I have included in this thesis, including: researching biographies of the composers, arrangers, and poets associated with the pieces; doing literary analyses of the texts of the pieces; musical observations of the pieces; and critical reflection concerning rehearsal plans, cultivating the sound of the ensemble, and putting together the recital.

Archibald Davison, Woody Woodworth, and Donald Grout were very much in evidence. Being at Harvard changed my life's goals. As an undergraduate in a small New Hampshire town, I had been thinking of studying mathematics, but then, in a great university, surrounded by musicians, the choice was definitely music.
