4Aprbeitsberichtneufassungpiqu
Peter Tchaikovsky The Queen of Spades op. 68 (1890) after the novella of the same name by A. C. Pushkin Libretto by Modest Tchaikovsky New version for soli and orchestra op. 75 by Eberhard Kloke Starting situation The following sources were available for the new version of The Queen of Spades: scores published by Kalmus, D. Rather, Lucie Galland and the Hermann group of publishers. The reason and aim of this kind of new version consists not only in creating a feasible version for smaller ensembles and stages, but far more in establishing the basis for concentrating on the dramatic core of the work. Aim of the new version The central action was reduced to a chamber play, since the protagonists’ main action takes place independently of the so-called episodic scenes (offering elements of French Grand Opéra with chorus, ballet and colourful genre set pieces). The chamber opera thus galvanises the dramatic action with a more stringent dynamic force and shifts it closer to Pushkin’s novella. Nevertheless, the set confusion of time, styles and sequence of action is retained, since Tchaikovsky placed the work in the late eighteenth century and not, like Pushkin, in the early nineteenth. The musical adaptation The compositional structure in general, the notation of the vocal parts, and the main instrumental characteristic of the work are retained according to Tchaikovsky’s original intention. The reduction of the woodwind is based on the instrumentation settings required in the original score and is a reason for the likewise reduced string setting. The sound figures, sound colours and register changes are oriented on the main score and are – when at all possible – transferred to the smaller score.

Queen of Spades in Silent Russian Cinema // Liberal Arts in Russia
ISSN 2305-8420 Российский гуманитарный журнал. 2019. Том 8. №2 91 DOI: 10.15643/libartrus-2019.2.1 (In)visible text: Queen of Spades in si lent Russian cinema © K. Hainová Palacký University in Olomouc 10 Křížkovského, Olomouc 779 00, Czech Republic. Email: [email protected] Alexander Pushkin ’s literary works have been an inspiration for the cinema already from the emergence of the narrative fiction film. One of Pushkin ’s most frequently adapted stories is a mystical novella Queen of Spades written in 1833. In Russian silent cinema, there were different versions of the story – the first one appeared as a short film in early 1910 and was directed by Pyotr Chardynin, another already a feature -length version was made in 1916 by Yakov Protazanov. While Protazanov’s version follows Pushkin’s story more closely, Chardynin also seems to draw heavily o n Tchaikovsky’s eponymous opera, which makes his film more reliant on the viewer ’s prior knowledge of the original text. The article focuses on both films, particularly on their means of transferring Pushkin’s original text o n screen. By comparing them to each other as well as with their original source materials (hypotext in Genette’s terminology), it also de- fines the degree of intertextuality in relation to the viewer ’s understanding of the re- sulting hypertext. Keywords: Alexander Pushkin, Queen of Spades, silent cinema, intertextuality, te xt transfer, theory of adaptation. There is a curious story connected with Pushkin’s novel Queen of Spades and the famous Russian actor and television film director Mikhail Kozakov.

Franz Von Suppé (1819-1895) Pique Dame Overture
Franz von Suppé (1819-1895) Pique Dame Overture Franz von Suppé, a native of Spalato in Dalmatia (now known as Split, Croatia) was born on April 18, 1819. He first studied law and then medicine before devoting his life to music. In 1835, he took up residence in Vienna, where he would prosper for the rest of his long life. He received his first appointment as a theater conductor at the Josephstadt Theatre in 1840 before moving on to the more prestigious Theatre an der Wien in 1845. As a composer, he made his debut while at the Josephstadt with incidental music written to accompany one of the productions. An admirer of the French composer Jacques Offenbach, Suppé sought to adapt many of the goals and techniques of the French opera-bouffe to the Viennese stage. The result, he created his own idiom, the operetta. His first true success was with Poet and Peasant, which premiered in 1846. As a skillful and tasteful composer, with an inspired gift for melody, harmony and orchestration, Suppé has left a legacy of many fine works. At the time of his retirement, he was easily acknowledged as the leading composer of light opera in Vienna. Although today he is mostly remembered for his overtures, they only give us a quick glimpse into the wit, originality of ideas and verve that were the essence of this most original composer. Pique Dame is the title that Suppé gave to a revised version of an earlier work that he expanded into two acts and is very loosely based on the story “The Queen of Spades” by the Russian Alexander Pushkin.

Tchaikovsky's the Queen of Spades
Tchaikovsky’s The Queen of Spades - A survey of the major recordings by Ralph Moore The Queen of Spades, alternatively known as Pique Dame is Tchaikovsky’s “other” opera. He considered it to be his best, and in recent years it has been catching up in popularity with the more celebrated Eugene Onegin (another dark Pushkin tale); none of his eight other operas rivals those two - Iolanta and Mazeppa come in at a very distant third. For years I have gone along with the received wisdom that Pique Dame is demonstrably inferior to Eugene Onegin but better acquaintance with Pique Dame has led me to the conclusion that the gap between the two is less than I thought. The fact that it is a grim, sombre tale has not helped its advancement; it hardly makes for a jolly night at the opera. Its action is to some degree realistic but also melodramatic, in that both main characters descend into madness and commit suicide; it is also dependent upon two respectively far-fetched and supernatural elements: the supposed existence of a secret gambling formula and the apparition of the Countess’ ghost to Hermann. As Chekalinsky sceptically remarks, “Se non è vero, è ben trovato!” and those devices propel events entertainingly. The opera is primarily a study in the pernicious effects of greed and obsession and in that regard Hermann is in the same mould as other suicidal or destructive operatic (anti-)heroes, such as Werther, Otello and Heinrich in Tannhäuser. Arguably responsible for the deaths of both Lisa and her elderly guardian grandmother, the Countess, he is certainly unattractive as a personality, yet Tchaikovsky identified closely with him as an outsider and invested heavily in his depiction, giving the music great intensity and completing the whole opera in 44 days.
