Spanning the gap between the supernatural Russian music of the nineteenth century and the compositions of Prokofiev and Stravinsky, this exceptionally insightful and well-researched book explores how Russian symbolist poets interpreted opera and prompted operatic innovation. Simon Morrison shows how these works, though stylistically and technically different, reveal the extent to which the operatic representation of the miraculous can be translated into its enactment.Morrison treats these largely unstudied pieces by canonical composers: Tchaikovsky's Queen of Spades, Rimsky-Korsakov's Legend of the Invisible City of Kitezh and the Maiden Fevroniya, Scriabin's unfinished Mysterium, and Prokofiev's Fiery Angel. The chapters, revisionist studies of these composers and scores, address separate aspects of Symbolist poetics, discussing such topics as literary and musical decadence, pagan-Christian syncretism, theurgy, and life creation, or the portrayal of art in life. The appendix offers the first complete English-language translation of Scriabin's libretto for the Preparatory Act.Providing valuable insight into both the Symbolist enterprise and Russian musicology, this book casts new light on opera's evolving, ambiguous place in fin de siècle culture. 410 0$aCalifornia studies in 20th-century music ;$v2. 606 $aOpera$zRussia (Federation)$y20th century 606 $aSymbolism (Literary movement)$zRussia (Federation)$xHistory$y20th century 610 $acanonical composers. 610 $adrama. 610 $afiery angel. 610 $afin de siecle. 610 $alegend of the invisible city of kitezh. 610 $alibretto. 610 $amaiden fevroniya. 610 $amiracles. 610 $amusic history. 610 $amusic interpretation. 610 $amusic theory. 610 $amusic. 610 $amusicology. 610 $amysterium. 610 $aopera. 610 $aoperatic innovation. 610 $aperformance. 610 $aperforming arts. 610 $apoetics. 610 $aprokofiev. 610 $aqueen of spades. 610 $arimsky korsakov. 610 $arussian music. 610 $arussian opera. 610 $ascriabin. 610 $asilver age. 610 $aspectacle. 610 $astravinsky. 610 $asupernatural russian music. 610 $asupernatural. 610 $asymbolist movement. 610 $asyncretism. 610 $atchaikovsky. 610 $atheater. 610 $atheurgy. 610 $atranslation. 615 0$aOpera 615 0$aSymbolism (Literary movement)$xHistory 676 $a782.1/092/247 700 $aMorrison$b Simon Alexander$f1964-$01451873 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780079103321 996 $aRussian opera and the symbolist movement$93775982 997 $aUNINA
