The Transformation of Pushkin's Eugene Onegin Into Tchaikovsky's Opera
THE TRANSFORMATION OF PUSHKIN'S EUGENE ONEGIN INTO TCHAIKOVSKY'S OPERA Molly C. Doran A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC August 2012 Committee: Eftychia Papanikolaou, Advisor Megan Rancier © 2012 Molly Doran All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Eftychia Papanikolaou, Advisor Since receiving its first performance in 1879, Pyotr Il’yich Tchaikovsky’s fifth opera, Eugene Onegin (1877-1878), has garnered much attention from both music scholars and prominent figures in Russian literature. Despite its largely enthusiastic reception in musical circles, it almost immediately became the target of negative criticism by Russian authors who viewed the opera as a trivial and overly romanticized embarrassment to Pushkin’s novel. Criticism of the opera often revolves around the fact that the novel’s most significant feature—its self-conscious narrator—does not exist in the opera, thus completely changing one of the story’s defining attributes. Scholarship in defense of the opera began to appear in abundance during the 1990s with the work of Alexander Poznansky, Caryl Emerson, Byron Nelson, and Richard Taruskin. These authors have all sought to demonstrate that the opera stands as more than a work of overly personalized emotionalism. In my thesis I review the relationship between the novel and the opera in greater depth by explaining what distinguishes the two works from each other, but also by looking further into the argument that Tchaikovsky’s music represents the novel well by cleverly incorporating ironic elements as a means of capturing the literary narrator’s sardonic voice. -

Infused with ego-driven angst, once considered obscene because of the lyrics’ stark depiction of death and their portrayal of a seedy underworld inhabited by gamblers, pimps, “loose” women, and every sort of rounder, the song has been adapted, rewritten, borrowed, stolen, attacked, revered, and Investigations in the shadowy loved. In its heyday of the 1920s and 30s, when recordings and sheet music of world of early jazz-blues in the “St. James Infirmary” were first packaged and marketed, the public could not get enough of it. Nearly a hundred years later, its allure remains. company of Blind Willie McTell, Robert W. Harwood follows the song as it travels from its folk origins into Louis Armstrong, Don Redman, the recording studios, performances stages, and law courts of America’s jazz era. Along the way he picks up a retinue of fascinating characters whose Irving Mills, Carl Moore, and a stories are as interesting as the song itself. -
The Legacy of Leadership Is Persistent with the Class Having
The Legacy of Leadership is Persistent with the Class having Leadership like Ron Lazar, supported by his lovely bride Lilliane and 32 other helping hands, 1953 had an 80.4% Participation tally in the 2015 Dartmouth College Fund drive, an awesome achievement. Many were involved, but leadership and persistence were motivated by our leader Ron and Lilliane, and 32 teammates that Ron has dubbed Team Terrific, helping hands that led to this extraordinary achievement to sustain the Legacy of 1953. Details of this fabulous achievement follow. Mark Smoller’s Class Notes for the Alumni Magazine in the fall. “It was not, “So long!”, but “See ya later!” at a send-off gathering for Bonnie and Dave Siegal. Thirty-three classmates and their wives and widows gathering at Kendall to wish the Siegal’s well. After many years of on the scene, service to the Class and the College, Bonnie and Dave are leaving for Tulsa, Oklahoma, and will be missed in Hanover. We look forward to seeing them as they return for various events, and wish them good luck in their new digs. Attending the Siegal’s party were Dick and Cynthia O’Connor, Clark and Linda Brink, Seth Carpenter, Liz King, Jane Springer, Russ and Marge Cook, Bill Murray, Bob and Mary Bee Longabaugh, Jack and Jody Zimmerman, Bob and Anne Simpson, Nancy and Caroline Johnson, Lillian and Holly Goss, Put and Marian Blodgett, Dave and Bonnie Siegal, Allen Collins, Chuck and Donna Reilly, Harlan Fair, Granthia Preston, Joe and Jane Stevens, and John and Barbara Kennedy.

Interstellar Music - by Mike Overly
Interstellar Music - by Mike Overly Let's imagine that you could toss a message in a bottle faster than a speeding bullet into the cosmic ocean of outer space. What would you seal inside it for anyone, or anything, to open some day in the distant future, in a galaxy far, far away from our solar system? Well, imagine no more because it's been done! Thirty-five years ago, NASA launched two Voyager spacecraft carrying earthly images and sounds toward the Stars. Voyager 1 was launched on September 5, 1977, from Cape Canaveral, Florida and Voyager 2 was sent on its way August 20 of that same year. Voyager 1 is now 11 billion miles away from earth and is the most distant of all human-made objects. Everyday, it flies another million miles farther. In fact, Voyager 1 and 2 are so far out in space that their radio signals, traveling at the speed of light, take 16 hours to reach Earth. These radio signals are captured daily by the big dish antennas of the Deep Space Network and arrive at a strength of less than one femtowatt, a millionth of a billionth of a watt. Wow! Both Voyagers are headed towards the outer boundary of the solar system, known as the heliopause. This is the region where the Sun's influence wanes and interstellar space waxes. Also, the heliopause is where the million-mile-per-hour solar winds slow down to about 250,000 miles per hour. The Voyagers have reached these solar winds, also known as termination shock, and should cross the heliopause in another 10 to 20 years. -

I know that music made a tremendous difference in the anti- war movement of the 60s as well as the civil rights movement. Music is a powerful force that is often unrecognized. A song has a way of inspiring folks that nothing else comes even close to. We are in need of inspiring songs. One of the roles of a songwriter is not only to reflect on what is happening in the present but also to provide a vision of the future. What is your vision of the future? For some it is nihilistic bleakness – a very cynical response to our world. For others, it is filled with hope – we are somehow going to be able to figure out how we can live together and with all of creation. If you are a performer, I want to challenge you to get out of yourself and add songs that reflect your vision of the future to your repertoire.
