Abstract:

Shandong art is deeply influenced by Confucianism. As a big province of culture and drama, it has given birth to various kinds of operas and has strong local characteristics. Among various kinds of operas, dulcimer plays an important role as an accompaniment instrument, and is the primary instrument for many kinds of operas. Lv opera and Wuyin opera are two of the most important operas in Shandong, so this paper summarizes the characteristics and causes of the dulcimer accompaniment in Shandong local operas by analyzing the characteristics of the dulcimer accompaniment in Lv opera and Wuyin opera. Finally, some suggestions are put forward to protect and develop Shandong traditional opera.

Abstract:

The research comprehensively explores the profound impact of media advancements on opera, particularly focusing on Richard Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen. It reveals how recording technology has revolutionized opera's accessibility and experience. This transformation has democratized the art form, extending its reach beyond elite circles to a global audience. In terms of production and promotion, the study highlights how Wagner's operas have adeptly utilized evolving media forms, ranging from print to digital platforms. This approach has significantly expanded the operas' global presence, fostered wider appreciation and facilitating cross-cultural musical exchange. Wagner's proactive promotional strategies, coupled with extensive media coverage, have played a pivotal role in this expansion. Moreover, the research delves into the influence of Wagner's operas in the realm of cinema. It illustrates how Wagner's thematic compositions and leitmotif technique have not only inspired film scores but also influenced narrative structures, showcasing the operas' cross-medium impact on cinematic arts. However, this media evolution also presents challenges. Key among these is maintaining the artistic integrity of operatic works in a fast-paced media landscape and balancing the preferences of diverse audience demographics. Additionally, the shift towards digital formats, while beneficial for accessibility, poses the risk of diminishing the immersive sensory experience traditionally associated with live opera performances. In essence, the study underscores the significant role of media advancements in reshaping the opera world, highlighting both the opportunities and challenges these changes bring to the promotion and experience of operatic works.

Abstract:

If Bedřich Smetana is thought to be the father of Czech national opera, Antonín Dvořák and Zdeněk Fibich would be his sons. Czech critics as well as the public expected that Smetana’s successors would bring Czech opera to international recognition. Dvořák and Fibich gave increased attention to opera composition during the 1890s and the beginning of the twentieth century. They both crowned their achievements with monumental operas on subjects with historical settings: Fibich’s The Fall of Arkona (1900) and Dvořák‘s Armida (1904). The reason for this apparent coincidence was, in part, that these works were written after Wagner’s operas and before the operatic successes of Richard Strauss, when it was possible to devise free combinations of symphonically composed scenes, arioso-like vocal lines influenced by verismo, and the dramaturgical effects of grand opera. As a praised model for successful historical opera might have served Karl Goldmark’s famous work Die Königin von Saba, especially in the case of Fibich’s last opera, which was explicitly compared with Goldmark’s opera. Operas on historical subjects form a little-known part of the works of Czech composers, but they extend from Smetana’s piece The Brandenburgers in Bohemia through the late operas of Dvořák and Fibich to Janáček’s two-part opera The Excursions of Mr Brouček. It is a line of operas that present an unforgettable counterpart to many successful Czech theatrical compositions – representative operas and intimate tragedies, comic operas and fairy tales, generally written on subjects from Czech villages and mythology, including Smetana’s Bartered Bride and Libuše, Fibich’s The Tempest and Šárka, Dvořák’s Jakobín, Kate and the Devil and Rusalka, Josef Bohuslav Foerster’s Eva, as well as Leoš Janáček’s Jenůfa.

Abstract:

The subject of this research is the origins of Russian Opera and its evolution. The grounds of Russian Opera can be observed in folk and Church rites of the Ancient Rus’. The origins of Russian Opera stem from the Middle Ages, when the cantatory tradition formed under the impact of Byzantine and Russian folk traditions. The folk-Church events of the XVI – XVII centuries contained the theatrical elements, which later on were incorporated by the professional musical theater. Until the XVIII century, theatrical performances were open only to royalty and upper class society. The first theatre in Russia was built in 1672 for the Tsar and received a name “The Comedy Mansion”. It staged operas on the Biblical themes. The first secular operas appeared in the second half of the XVIII century. In 1756, the Empress Elizabeth of Russia turned the theater into a state and public institution. Russian operas of that time mirrored the Western models to a large extent. The emergence of truly national operas is related to the name of M. I. Glinka (1804-1857). The conclusion is made that modern Opera borrowed the principles of nationalism and humanism from its precursors. The author draws parallels between the first operas, classical Russian Opera on the one hand, and modern Russian Opera on the other. Analysis is carried out on the origin of the plots and libretto of the operas. P. I. Tchaikovsky, M. P. Mussorgsky, A. P. Borodin, N. A. Rimsky-Korsakov, S. V. S. V. Rachmaninoff, S. S. Prokofiev, D. D. Shostakovich and others, same as the inventors of the opera, wrote their operas based on literary and historical storylines.

Abstract:

“Opera is an omnivorous monster. Opera is the result of countless skilled craftsmen, technicians, musicians, singers, artists and administrators work. Opera is passion. Opera is lie and truth in the purest form” as stage director Kirsten Dehlholm wrote in the program to Rachmaninov Troika – hers and Hotel Pro Forma’s staging of Sergei Rachmaninoff’s three operas: Aleko, The Miserly Knight and Fransisca da Rimini produced by the Belgian opera, La Monnaie in Brussels, June 2015 - the first time these three operas were being staged together. In this article we discuss the concept of the art work by examining how Rachmaninov Troika balances between 1) revitalizing these three more or less forgotten music historical operas and/or is creating a new piece of work.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT‘Meta-operas’, that is, operas portraying the world of opera and its protagonists (such as impresarios, music directors, librettists and virtuosi), became increasingly common during the eighteenth century. Most of the scholarly literature on meta-opera, however, concentrates on the operas' poetic texts, their librettos. Scholars have dealt with these operas about operas almost as though they were spoken dramas, without taking into account the many ways in which metatheatrical practices and conventions are made more complex by the presence of music.What do meta-operatic scores look like? Are they similar to other ‘ordinary’ scores of the same time, or do their metatheatrical techniques set them aside as special? Considering a number of eighteenth-century works, this article points out how specific musical means can contribute to the overall effect of meta-operatic plots: the stratified nature of meta-narratives is, in fact, mirrored in the scores when realistic music is performed on stage. On these occasions, the presence of more than one layer of musical performance (of music and ‘music’) can be detected in the score. Furthermore, the presence of realistic music allows for a highly flexible treatment of standard operatic practices, and a number of passages work across conventional oppositions such as recitative/closed number, ‘real-life’/‘performed’ and ‘spoken’/‘sung’. Meta-operas, therefore, offer a special perspective on the presence of realistic music in opera.

Abstract:

Starting in 1950, Korean Opera, which has a history of 73 years to date in 2023, served as an motive to pave the way for the creation of Korean opera through the “MOM Creation Contest” organized by Korea National Opera in 2009. Since then, it has been changed to the Creative Factory of Performing Arts organized by the Arts Council Korea since 2014, and new operas have been discovered every year through continuous support until 2023, and 17 new operas have been finally selected. This study examined the diversified aspects of material utilization for new operas discovered through the Creative Factory of Performing Arts, focusing on the material of the libretto, which is the first work and basic element of the creation of an opera. In order to study the material diversification of new opera selected through the Creative Factory of Performing Arts, six classification criteria were set, each of which is a genre, method of libretto, original foundation, the spatial background of work, the temporal background of work, and basic material. In addition, in order to help understand, this study also examined aspects of the diversification of materials of new operas in overseas opera theaters such as the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, Austria, Italy, and France. As a part of the development of cultural contents, I hope that this study will help understand the trend of diversification through the recently discovered Korean new operas, help revitalize creation, and further promote convergent development in all fields of performing arts.

Abstract:

The article’s author considers the system of dominant themes in the operas of the Chinese composer of the 20th century Jin Xiang, close to the principle of the end-to-end development of thematism in European and Russian classical opera. The author reveals the specifi cs of working with thematism in the operas “Savage Land”, “Yang Guifei” and “Eight Women Jump Into the River”. The research methods were a holistic and comparative analysis of the thematism of operas in terms of expressiveness, imaginative-semantic content, dramatic function, and symphonic development. The analysis of the “dominant thematism” and its development in Jin Xiang’s operas made it possible to prove that leitmotifs embody the national ideological content in the works of the Chinese composer, express senses, states and actions of the heroes, describe events, and reveal plot confl icts of the drama. In his opera work, Jin Xiang develops his own system of leitmotifs, connecting each opera together in imaginative, semantic, dramatic and organisational aspects. At the same time, the dominant thematism gives Jin Xiang’s works a national character, allowing Chinese opera to maintain its identity against the background of the stylistic globalisation in music.

Abstract:

Although singing voice synthesis (SVS) has made significant progress recently, with its unique styles and various genres, Chinese opera synthesis requires greater attention but is rarely studied for lack of training data and high expressiveness. In this work, we build a high-quality Gezi Opera (a type of Chinese opera popular in Fujian and Taiwan) audio-text alignment dataset and formulate specific data annotation methods applicable to Chinese operas. We propose FT-GAN, an acoustic model for fine-grained tune modeling in Chinese opera synthesis based on the empirical analysis of the differences between Chinese operas and pop songs. To further improve the quality of the synthesized opera, we propose a speech pre-training strategy for additional knowledge injection. The experimental results show that FT-GAN outperforms the strong baselines in SVS on the Gezi Opera synthesis task. Extensive experiments further verify that FT-GAN performs well on synthesis tasks of other operas such as Peking Opera. Audio samples, the dataset, and the codes are available at https://zhengmidon.github.io/FTGAN.github.io/.

Abstract:

The virtuosic characteristics of Rossini's works and the philosophical characteristics of Beethoven's works have both made significant contributions to the world of music. In the field of musicology and music theory, Rossini’s operas have already been analyzed by many scholers. However, the number of people analyzing Beethoven's only opera is few. Comparing and analyzing the operas of these two composers together is even rarer. This article focuses the operas La Donna Del Lago and Fidelio from the perspectives of historical backgrounds, music and theatrical analysis. It also briefly analyzed the heroic image of the female protagonists in the two operas. Furthermore, a comparative analysis was conducted on the two arias "Tanti affetti" and "O wär' ich schon mit dir vereint" in these two operas. From music and theathre perspective, the auther investigates the charateristics of these two composers in their opreatic works.

Full text

Abstract:

Aboulker’s operatic works present an opportunity for opera workshop programs in the United States to perform contemporary operatic works in a foreign language, revitalizing the operatic repertoire and giving students the opportunity to prepare and perform roles without the weight and influence of significant performance history. Aboulker’s style, which has been called “effectively simple,” allows developing students to work on new French language repertoire without the burden of excessively difficult or atonal vocal lines. Aboulker’s works are tuneful and humorous and her longest operatic work lasts a mere hour and a half. These qualities also serve to mitigate the challenge presented to the student by the French language. Many of Aboulker’s works are conceived specifically to be performed with piano only, or have already been published in piano reduction. Most of her operatic works are very short or divide easily into scenes that could be performed separately where the performance of a longer work is either not feasible or not desired. All of these characteristics combine to make the operas of Isabelle Aboulker a viable repertoire option for the university opera studio.

Abstract:

Gustav Holst was a contributor to the genre of English opera throughout his career. His name is not usually associated with opera, and yet he composed thirteen in all; five were published, three are lost, and the remaining five exist solely in manuscript. The dissertation begins with Holst's background and influences, the most important of which were the music of Sullivan and Wagner, and the ways in which Holst's music of his early period imitated those styles. Other aspects with which Holst came into contact are discussed here; namely Sanskrit literature, the English folksong movement, and the re-discovery of the English madrigal. Each is examined separately in order to clarify how each influenced his music during the early years of the twentieth century. The earliest operas are presented in chronological order and discussed in terms of their subjects, harmonic and thematic approaches, style and form, as well as a comparison in style between the operas that were composed concurrently. The core of the work consists of the fourth, fifth and sixth chapters wherein Holst's final attempt at Wagnerian chromaticism (and his only attempt at large-scale three act opera) and its lack of success is presented. It is linked to a masterpiece of chamber opera of three years later by way of a song cycle for solo voice and piano which clearly demonstrates his new approach to the setting of text, his use of modality and the paring down of accompaniment to give emphasis to the voice. The final chapter deals with the late period of Holst's operatic writing and discusses the three comic operas. Holst's humour and its effect on choice of subject, setting of text and orchestral effects is put into the context of the post-war era.

Abstract:

Abstract Beginning in the 1980s, the number of contemporary operas increased dramatically by comparison with the rest of the twentieth century, and the diversity of styles ranges across the entire field of musical thought. For example, with Donne stag as Light in 1981, Stockhausen began a series of seven operas, one for each day of the week. Two years later Messene finished his first opera, Saint François daisies. Philip Glass completed two operas, Satyagraha in 1980 and Akhenaten in 1984. In 1986 the English National Opera premiered the second of Harrison Birtwistle’s three operas, The Mask of Orpheus. The Frankfurt Opera mounted John Cage’s first two operas European I and II in 1987. Operas by many other well-known composers followed: Jacob Rickman (1982), Bernard Rends (1985), George Rothberg (1986), and Morton Subtonic. To celebrate their tenth anniversary in 1987, the Centre Georges Pompidou and the musical research center IRCAM (Institute de Recherché et Coordination Acoustique/Mosque) in Paris commissioned a video opera from the young American Todd Mach over. What is behind this renewed interest in a genre that fell into disrepute for much of this century? Is it simply opera’s commercial appeal, or the fame it brings, or does opera fill a need, felt by both composers and audiences, created by the difficulty of comprehending much con- temporary music?

Full text

Abstract:

This paper focuses on fertility choices in Brazil, a country where soap operas (novelas) portray families that are much smaller than in reality, to study the effects of television on individual behavior. Using Census data for the period 1970-1991, the paper finds that women living in areas covered by the Globo signal have significantly lower fertility. The effect is strongest for women of lower socioeconomic status and for women in the central and late phases of their fertility cycle. Finally, the paper provides evidence that novelas, rather than television in general, affected individual choices.

Abstract:

This paper analyzes the impact of the Strengthening Women Entrepreneurship in Peru (SWEP) program. SWEP trained female micro entrepreneurs in business management practices (such as accounting and marketing). The training, which was provided in 4- to 5-hour sessions, used soap operas and practical exercises specifically designed for the program. A field experiment was conducted among a group of micro entrepreneurs based in two Peruvian cities (Lima and Piura) to investigate whether SWEP had a positive impact on its beneficiaries. The results show that the program positively affected the adoption of business practices taught by the program. In particular, those who received the training were 4 to 6 percentage points more likely to assign themselves a fixed salary (rather than taking cash from their businesses based on personal needs) and 6 to 11 percentage points more likely to keep better records of potential business contacts. Some positive impacts were found on the adoption of bookkeeping practices (4 to 6 percentage points), although this result is not significant across all of the specifications. Although these changes in adoption rates were large compared with their baseline levels, they were rather small in absolute terms. Therefore, the study did not find any impact on average business performance, household expenditures, or women's empowerment in the household. Qualitative information suggests that micro entrepreneurs were satisfied with the training, but considered that many of the practices taught by the program were difficult to follow because of time constraints.

Full text

Abstract:

How does exposure to soap operas with LGBTIQ characters affect attitudes toward the LGBTIQ community? To answer this question, we construct a novel database of 175 telenovelas (soap operas) with LGBTIQ characters airing in 14 countries in Latin America and the Caribbean between 2002 and 2019. Exploiting variation in the introduction of new soap operas with LGBTIQ characters within country and survey-waves, we find that individuals exposed to more soap operas with LGBTIQ characters are less tolerant toward the LGBTIQ community. This short-term backlash is driven by exposure to telenovelas with homosexual characters and shows with comedic storylines. The effect is stronger among traditionally more conservative individuals (e.g., older or frequently attending religious services).

Abstract:

Blue Mountain is a 35-minute work for two actors and orchestra. It was commissioned by the Ultima Festival, and premiered in 2014 by the Danish National Chamber Orchestra. The Ultima festival challenged me – being both a composer and writer – to make something where I wrote both text and music. Interestingly, I hadn’t really thought of that before, writing text to my own music – or music to my own text. This is a very common thing in popular music, the songwriter. But in the lied, the orchestral piece or indeed in opera, there is a strict division of labour between composer and writer. There are exceptions, most famously Wagner, who did libretto, music and staging for his operas. And 20th century composers like Olivier Messiaen, who wrote his own poems for his music – or Luciano Berio, who made a collage of such detail that it the text arguably became his own in Sinfonia. But this relationship is often a convoluted one, not often discussed in the tradition of musical analysis where text tend to be taken as a given, not subjected to the same rigorous scrutiny that is often the case with music. This exposition is an attempt to unfold this process of composing with both words and music. A key challenge has been to make the text an intrinsic part of the performance situation, and the music something more than mere accompaniment to narration. To render the words meaningless without the music and vice versa. So the question that emerged was how music and words can be not only equal partners, but also yield a new species of music/text? A second questions follows en suite, and that is what challenges the conflation of different roles – the writer and the composer – presents? I will try to address these questions through a discussion of the methods applied in Blue Mountain, the results they have yielded, and the challenges this work has posed.

Full text

Abstract:

El grupo Don Mario (GDM) es una empresa que desarrolla semillas de Argentina que se ha convertido en un jugador importante en el mercado global proveyendo el 20% de las variedades de soja que se utilizan en el mundo. La empresa exporta actualmente a más de 11 países. El crecimiento e internacionalización del grupo Don Mario es un fenómeno de enorme interés ya que se produjo en un período en el que el mercado global de semillas se concentró masivamente en unas pocas empresas internacionales a través de un proceso de fusiones y adquisiciones sin precedentes, que involucró la desaparición de cientos de empresas semilleras independientes. En este reporte discutimos los principales cambios en la demanda mundial, tecnológicos, regulatorios y de estructura de mercado que han operado y operan como oportunidades y desafíos para la expansión de Don Mario; presentaremos una serie de indicadores que describen el contexto global y local en el cual opera la empresa Don Mario; analizamos en detalle el alcance y modelo de la inserción internacional de la empresa Don Mario; explicaremos los elementos claves que explican el éxito de la firma; el uso e impacto de las políticas públicas; y los desafíos pendientes que tiene la empresa para continuar su proceso de crecimiento internacional.
