Roads to Solace Friday 20 November, 7pm ROADS TO SOLACE Les Années Folles Francesca Chiejina ​– soprano Ashley Riches ​– baritone Nigel Foster ​– piano James Symonds ​– video projections Nick Delvalle ​- speaker with readings from contemporary sources including: Ernest Hemingway ​A Moveable Feast, ​Janet Flanner ​Letter from Paris​, George Orwell ​Down and Out in Paris and London. Song 1 - Non, la fidélité ​from ​Six Chansons Françaises – Germaine Tailleferre​ ​(1892-1983) and Gabriel-Charles de Lattaignant (1697-1779) Non, non, la fidélité N’a jamais été qu’une imbécillité. J’ai quitté par légèreté Plus d’une beauté. Vive la nouveauté! Mais quoi la probité? Puérilité. Le serment répété - Style usité; A-t-on jamais compté Sur un traité Dicté par la volupté Sans liberté? On feint, par vanité, D’être irrité; L’amant peu regretté Est invite; La femme, Avec gaîté Bietôt s’arrange De son côté. Song 2 - Chanson á boire ​from ​Chansons Gaillardes –Francis Poulenc​ ​(1899-1963​)​ and Anon Les rois d’Égypte et de Syrie, Voulaient qu’on embaumât leurs corps, Pour durer plus longtemps morts. Quelle folie! Buvons donc selon notre envie, Il faut boire et reboire encore. Buvons donc toute notre vie, Embaumons-nous avant la mort. Embaumons-nous; Que ce baume est doux. Song 3 - A son page ​from ​Poèmes de Ronsard – Francis Poulenc and Pierre de Ronsard (1524-1585) Fais rafraíchir mon vin, de sorte Qu’il passe en froideur un glaçon; Fais venir Jeanne, qu’elle apporte Son luth pour dire une chanson; Nous ballerons tous trois au son, Et dis à Barbe qu’elle vienne, Les cheveux tors à la façon D'une folâtre Italienne. Ne vois-tu que le jour se passe? Je ne vis point au lendemain; Page, reverse dans ma tasse, Que ce grand verre soit tout plein. Maudit soit qui languit en vain! Ces vieux médecins je n’appreuve; Mon cerveau n’est jamais bien sain Si beaucoup de vin ne l’abreuve. Song 4 - La maîtresse volage ​from ​Chansons Gaillardes – Francis Poulenc and Anon Ma maîtresse est volage, Mon rival est heureux; S'il a son pucelage C’est qu’elle en avait deux. Et vogue la galère, Tant qu’elle pourra voguer. Song 5 - L’infidèle ​from ​Les Soirées de Pétrograde – Darius Milhaud (1892-1974) and René Chalupt (1885-1957) O Catherine Ivanowna, O ma douce colombe, Quitte ce vieux banquier qui n’a Déjà qu’odeur de tombe. On jase dans tout le district De nos mains désunies. Songe à mon coeur fidèle et strict, A sa peine infinie. Song 6 - Ballet ​from ​Poèmes de Ronsard – Francis Poulenc​ ​and Pierre de Ronsard Le soir qu’Amour vous fit En la salle descendre Pour danser d’artifice Un beau ballet d’Amour, Vos yeux, bien qu’il fut nuit, Ramenèrent le jour, Tant ils surent d’éclairs Par la place répandre. Le ballet fut divin, Qui se soulait reprendre, Se rompre, se refaire Et, tour dessus retour, Se mêler, s’écarter, Se tourner à l’entour, Contre imitant le cours Du fleuve de Méandre. Ores il était rond, ores long, Or’ étroit, or’ en pointe, En triangle, en la façon qu’on voit L’escadron de la grue Évitant la froidure. Je faux, tu ne dansais, Mais ton pied voletait Sur le haut de la terre; Aussi ton corps s’était transformé Pour ce soir en divine nature. Song 7 - Danseuse ​from ​Quatre Petites Mélodies – Erik Satie (1866-1925) and Jean Cocteau (1889-1963) Le crabe sort sur ses pointes Avec ses bras en corbeille; Il sourit jusqu’aux oreilles. La danseuse d’Opéra, Au crabe toute pareille, Sort de la coulisse peinte, En arrondissant les bras. Song 8 - Fumée ​from ​Trois​ ​Poèmes de Jean Cocteau​ ​– Darius Milhaud and Jean Cocteau Text C’est permis de fumer. Gare L'ecuyer de Médrano Quand tu fumes ton cigare Saute à travers les anneaux. Song 9 - Miel de Narbonne – Francis Poulenc and Jean Cocteau Use ton coeur. Les clowns fleurissent du crotin d’or, Dormir​.​ Un coup d’orteil, on vole “Volez-vous jouer avec moa?” Moabite. Dame de la croix bleu, caravane. Vanille, poivre, confiture de tamarin, Marin, cou, le pompom, moustache, mandoline, Linoléum en trompe l’oeil, merci, Cinéma nouvelle muse. Song 10 - Enfant de Troupe ​from ​Cocardes – Francis Poulenc and Jean Cocteau Morceau pour piston seul, polka, Caramels mous, bonbons acidulés, pastilles de menthe, ENTR’ACTE. L’odeur en sabots. Beau gibier de satin tué par le tambour, Hambourg, Bock, Sirop de framboise, Oiseleur de ses propres mains. Intermède, Uniforme bleu. Le trapeze encense la mort. Song 11 - Le Paon ​from ​Le Bestiaire – Louis Durey​ ​(1888-1979) and Guillaume Apollinaire (1880-1918) En faisant le roue, cet oiseau, Dont le pennage traîne à terre, Apparaît encore plus beau, Mais se découvre le derrière. Song 12 - L’Oiseau en Cage ​from ​Shéhérazade – Charles Koechlin (1867-1950) and Tristan Klingsor (Arthur Justin Léon Leclère, 1874-1966) O jeune fille, ton corps délicieux Est parfumé de lilas et de lis Comme un jardin de délices, Et quand tu passes, Les vieillards clignent des yeux En devinant sous la robe de couleur, Le trésor de ta croupe Rose et large, Et se disent que l’amour Est dans ton coeur Comme un oiseau en cage. Song 13 - Mon mari m’a diffamée ​from ​Six Chansons Françaises – Germaine Tailleferre and Anon Mon mari m’a diffamée Pour l’amour de mon ami, De la longue demeurée Que j’ai faite avec lui. Hé! Mon ami, En dépit de mon mari Qui me va toujours battant, Je ferai pis que devant. Aucunes gens m’ont blamée, Disant que j’ai fait ami: La chose très fort m’agrée. Mon très gracieux souci. Hé! Mon ami, En dépit de mon mari Qui ne vaut pas un grand blanc, Je ferai pis que devant. Quand je suis la nuit couchée Entre les bras de mon ami, Je deviens presque pamée Du plaisir que prends en lui. Hé! Mon ami Plût à Dieu que mon mari Je ne visse de trente ans! Nous nous don’rions du bon temps. Si je perds ma renommée Pour l’amour de mon ami, Point n’en dois être blamée, Car il est coincte et joli. Hé! Mon ami, Je n’ai bon jour ni demi Avec ce mari méchant. Je ferai pis que devant. Song 14 - Ardent ​from ​Trois Rondels dans le Style Ancien - Georges Hüe (1858-1948) and Paul Arosa (1874-19??) Viens ça, viens que je te mignarde, Mon petit coeur, mon angelot; Que mon baiser mette au repos Ta bouche rose et babillarde. Ton ris léger qui me bombarde, M’ardoit tout vif tel un brûlot; Viens ça, viens que je te mignarde, Mon petit coeur, mon angelot; Au soleil que le printemps darde, Le jardin d’amour est éclos, Viens y guerir à huis bien clos, Le mal ardent qui me poignarde, Viens ça, viens que je te mignarde, Song 15 - La Belle Jeunesse ​from ​Chansons Gaillardes – Francis Poulenc and Anon Il faut s’aimer toujours Et ne s’épouser guère. Il faut faire l’amour Sans curé ni notaire. Cessez, messieurs, d’etre épouseurs, Ne visez qu’aux tirelires, Ne visez qu’aux tourelours, Cessez, messieurs, d’etre épouseurs, Ne visez qu’aux coeurs. Cessez, messieurs, d’etre épouseurs, Holà, messieurs, ne visez plus qu’aux coeurs. Pourquoi se marier, Quand les femmes des autres Ne se font pas prier Pour devenir les nôtres. Quand leurs ardeurs, Quand leurs faveurs, Cherchent nos tirelires, Cherchent nos tourelours, Cherchent nos coeurs. (repeat) Il faut s’aimer toujours Et ne s’épouser guère. Il faut faire l’amour Sans curé ni notaire. Cessez, messieurs, d’etre épouseurs, Holà, messieurs, ne visez plus qu’aux coeurs. SHORT BREAK Song 16 - Sarabande–Albert Roussel (1869-1937) and René Chalupt Op 20/2 Les jets d’eau dansent des sarabandes Sur l’herbe parfumée des boulingrins: Il y a des rumeurs de soie dans le jardin Et de mystérieuses présences. Sur le marbre rose d’une margelle, Trois tourterelles Se sont posées Comme sur tes lèvres trois baisers; Leurs plumes s’effeuillent dans le basin. Les fleurs fraîches des marronniers Neigent lentment sur tes seins Et font frissonner ta chair nue Car tu es nue Sous ton manteau. Et c’est pour toi que les jets d’eau Dansent de sveltes sarabandes, Que le parc est plein de présences Et que les tourterelles blanches, Comme de vivantes guirlandes, Viennent fleurir au bord de l’eau. Song 17 - Spleen ​from ​Ludions – Erik Satie and Léon-Paul Fargue (1878-1947) Dans un vieux square où l’océan Du mauvais temps met son séant Sur un banc triste aux yeux de pluie C’est d’une blonde Rosse et gironde Que je m’ennuie Dans ce Cabaret du Néant Qu’est notre vie. Song 18 - Air du Poète ​from ​Ludions – Erik Satie and Léon-Paul Fargue Au pays de ​Papouasie J’ai caressé la​ Pouasie​… La grâce que je vous souhaite C’est de n’etre pas ​Papouète​. Song 19 - La Poulpe ​from ​Le Bestiaire – Louis Durey​ ​and Guillaume Apollinaire Text Jetant son encre vers les cieux, Suçant le sang de ce qu’il aime Et le trouvant délicieux, Ce monstre inhumain c’est moi-même. Song 20 - Les joues en feu ​from ​Les Joues en Feu – Georges Auric (1899-1983) and Raymond Radiguet (1903-1923) Insolemment à la beauté je me voue Raison de plus pour ne plus penser qu’à vous En plein éte fallait-il que je l’avoue Ni plus ni moins le soleil ou le courroux En deux pêches transformera vos deux joues Song 21 - L’Insinuant ​from ​Trois Poèmes de Paul Valéry​ – ​Louis Durey and Paul Valéry (1871-1945) 1:30 Ô courbes, méandre, Secrets du menteur, Est-il art plus tendre Que cette lenteur? Je sais où je vais, Je t’y veux conduire, Mon dessin mauvais N’est pas de te nuire.

  • Against Expression?: Avant-Garde Aesthetics in Satie's" Parade"
    Against Expression?: Avant-garde Aesthetics in Satie’s Parade A thesis submitted to the Division of Graduate Studies and Research of the University of Cincinnati In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC In the division of Composition, Musicology, and Theory of the College-Conservatory of Music 2020 By Carissa Pitkin Cox 1705 Manchester Street Richland, WA 99352 [email protected] B.A. Whitman College, 2005 M.M. The Boston Conservatory, 2007 Committee Chair: Dr. Jonathan Kregor, Ph.D. Abstract The 1918 ballet, Parade, and its music by Erik Satie is a fascinating, and historically significant example of the avant-garde, yet it has not received full attention in the field of musicology. This thesis will provide a study of Parade and the avant-garde, and specifically discuss the ways in which the avant-garde creates a dialectic between the expressiveness of the artwork and the listener’s emotional response. Because it explores the traditional boundaries of art, the avant-garde often resides outside the normal vein of aesthetic theoretical inquiry. However, expression theories can be effectively used to elucidate the aesthetics at play in Parade as well as the implications for expressability present in this avant-garde work. The expression theory of Jenefer Robinson allows for the distinction between expression and evocation (emotions evoked in the listener), and between the composer’s aesthetical goal and the listener’s reaction to an artwork. This has an ideal application in avant-garde works, because it is here that these two categories manifest themselves as so grossly disparate.

  • Paris, 1918-45
    un :al Chapter II a nd or Paris , 1918-45 ,-e ed MARK D EVOTO l.S. as es. 21 March 1918 was the first day of spring. T o celebrate it, the German he army, hoping to break a stalemate that had lasted more than three tat years, attacked along the western front in Flanders, pushing back the nv allied armies within a few days to a point where Paris was within reach an oflong-range cannon. When Claude Debussy, who died on 25 M arch, was buried three days later in the Pere-Laehaise Cemetery in Paris, nobody lingered for eulogies. The critic Louis Laloy wrote some years later: B. Th<' sky was overcast. There was a rumbling in the distance. \Vas it a storm, the explosion of a shell, or the guns atrhe front? Along the wide avenues the only traffic consisted of militarr trucks; people on the pavements pressed ahead hurriedly ... The shopkeepers questioned each other at their doors and glanced at the streamers on the wreaths. 'II parait que c'ctait un musicicn,' they said. 1 Fortified by the surrender of the Russians on the eastern front, the spring offensive of 1918 in France was the last and most desperate gamble of the German empire-and it almost succeeded. But its failure was decisive by late summer, and the greatest war in history was over by November, leaving in its wake a continent transformed by social lb\ convulsion, economic ruin and a devastation of human spirit. The four-year struggle had exhausted not only armies but whole civiliza­ tions.

  • The Chesterian (1915-1961)
    Introduction to: Liesbeth Hoedemaeker, The Chesterian (1915-1940, 1947-1961) Répertoire international de la presse musicale (www.ripm.org) Copyright © 2013 RIPM Consortium Ltd The Chesterian 1915-1961 The Chesterian [CHE], one of England’s most important journals dealing with the development of musical composition and style during the first half of the twentieth century, was published by J. & W. Chester, the well-known music publisher. The journal1 was issued in two series, the first from 1915-1919; the second, titled New Series, from 1919-1961. Publication was interrupted from 1940 to 1947, years of the Second World War. The journal’s format is small: ca. 11 x 19 cm. The volumes were published annually from September to July. The first series consists of twenty, sixteen-page issues containing 320 numbered pages. The New Series consists of two- hundred-and-eight issues and 8,632 pages, including unnumbered pages. The number of annual issues begins at eight per volume in September 1919; declines to six in September 1932 until 1939; and, after the interruption, to four issues in 1947. The cover pages often contain information, such as lists of contributors, opinions of subscribers, contents of earlier issues and advertisements. The appearance of the New Series sparked sufficient interest to be recognized in the New York Tribune which offered an extensive preliminary list of contributors, citing letters as being of special interest: A feature of this magazine will be letters from various music centres containing information of current musical events. Ernest Newman, René Chalupt, Guido M. Gatti and Adolfo Salazar will be the respective contributors of letters from London, Paris, Italy and Spain.2 The journal’s appearance was also noted in The Musical Times: The Chesterian will be a … very readable little circular … In its new form it will appear eight times in the year.

Les opinions des biographes de Satie divergent quant à savoir si Satie voulait ou non une exécution « complète » de la pièce.

  • Open Boerner Thesis.Pdf
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School School of Music INTERMEDIAL AND AESTHETIC INFLUENCES ON ERIK SATIE’S LATE COMPOSITIONAL PRACTICES A Thesis in Music Theory by Michael S. Boerner © 2013 Michael S. Boerner Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts May 2013 The thesis of Michael S. Boerner was reviewed and approved* by the following: Taylor A. Greer Associate Professor of Music Thesis Advisor Maureen A. Carr Distinguished Professor of Music Marica S. Tacconi Professor of Musicology Assistant Director for Research and Graduate Studies *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. ii ABSTRACT Artistic works involving a variety of mediums tend to be approached and analyzed from a single artistic viewpoint, failing to consider the interactions of the different mediums that define the work as a whole. The creative process is influenced by the types of mediums involved, individuals participating in the collaboration, and the overall aesthetic climate of the period. Erik Satie (1866-1925) created numerous intermedial works in the last decade of his life where the medium impacted the compositional practices contained within his music. Satie was also tangentially involved in a number of artistic and aesthetic movements, such as Cubism, Dadaism, and early Surrealism, which influenced his integration. His personal relations and collaborations with prominent artists of these movements, such as Francis Picabia, André Breton, and Pablo Picasso. The works investigated in this thesis highlight Satie’s consideration of extramusical influences and include Sports et divertissements (1923), Parade (1917), Relâche (1924), and Cinéma: Entr’acte (1924). Two additional pieces composed by the Dada artist Georges Ribemont-Dessaignes (1884-1974) will also be examined as a point of comparison with Satie’s works.
