Richard Strauss Éléments de style Jacques Amblard, LESA (EA-3274) Abstract : le compositeur Richard Strauss, souvent taxé de « postromantique » et échappant ainsi à l’histoire, n’en fut pas moins, probablement, le plus important musicien allemand du premier XXe siècle. L’examen détaillé de son parcours nous permet de déceler un romantisme en réalité modernisé, dès la fin du XIXe siècle. La densité n’est plus celle de Wagner mais double chez ce « Richard II ». On pourrait parler de « poly-romantisme ». Ce dernier style se mélange ensuite, d’une façon originale, à partir du Chevalier à la rose, avec un néoclassicisme mozartien. Comment l’équilibre entre une telle densité lyrique et la légèreté mozartienne est-il possible ? Ce miracle dialectique culmine pourtant dans Capriccio. Ce texte fut rédigé en 2014, publié en 2016 dans Brahms (encyclopédie en ligne de l’IRCAM). -

I couldn’t believe from the beginning of the first song it could possibly get any more ecstatic and full of emotion, and yet it did. It was a short step from there to Strauss opera for me, and with the birth of YouTube I sat until the early hours of many a morning in my tiny room at Edinburgh University, listening to, watching and obsessing over Der Rosenkavalier’s final trio and presentation of the rose. -

Der Rosenkavalier<<* Die »Elektra« Von Hofmannsthal Und Strauss
AlLrecht Riethmüller Komödie für Musik nach Wagner: »Der Rosenkavalier<<* Die »Elektra« von Hofmannsthal und Strauss veranlaßte Garl Dahl haus zu einem Plädoyer für die klassische Tragödie sophokleischer Prägung, die weder durch die Sprachkunst Hofmannsthals noch durch die Musik von Strauss in der Oper zur Gänze wieder zugäng• lich wurde, ja der Musik recht eigentlich überhaupt nicht erreichbar ist. Lapidar fiel ein Satz, als stammte er selbst aus einem antiken Drama oder aus der aristotelischen Poetik: »denn an die tragische Dialektik reicht Musik nicht heran.«l So viel Musik - entweder für sich genommen oder in der Oper - vermag, so wenig kann sie alles ausrichten. Entgegen einer verbreiteten Überzeugung war und ist Theater mehr, als Oper sein kann. Reicht Musik indessen an die ko mische Dialektik heran? Diese Frage läßt sich an den 1911 in Dresden uraufgeführten »Rosenkavalier« stellen, der nicht nur das nach »Elektra« zweite Ergebnis der Gemeinschaftsproduktion von Hof mannsthal und Strauss war, sondern auch, wie man weiß, zu einem beispiellosen, weltweiten Publikumserfolg geworden ist. Opern, die danach noch Welterfolge wurden, waren, so scheint es, für lange Zeit in den allermeisten Fällen keine Komödien mehr. Der TItel »Komödie für Musik nach Wagner« ist mehrdeutig und soll es sein. Erstens spielt »Komödie für Musik« an den schließlich und endlich für die Oper gewählten Untertitel an, der den ebenso übli• chen wie losen Sprachgebrauch vermeidet, es handle sich - anders als bei der komischen Oper (opera comique) - um eine »musikalische • Referat des Verfassers bei dem zum Gedenken an Carl Dahlhaus von der Technischen Universität Berlin im Oktober 1989 veranstalteten Kolloquium »Oper nach Wagner«. -
