Full textCilj disertacije je da se korišćenjem teorije o
muzičkom gestu - na sonatama kao
reprezentativnom uzorku u kome je gest osnova
izgradnje muzičkog značenja, generator
kompozicione forme i strukture, ali i determinišući
faktor analize koji obezbeđuje razumevanje stila i
stilskih promena - potvrdi upotreba muzičkog gesta
kao elementa naratologije muzičkog toka u muzici
Prokofjeva. Šire gledano, primena teorije o
muzičkom gestu na istraživanje klavirskih sonata
Sergeja Prokofjeva potvrdiće njenu univerzalnu
profilisanost i primenjivost u analitičkim tumačenjima
muzike 20. veka, te proširiti dosadašnju praksu da se
ova teorija isključivo vezuje za muziku 18. i 19. veka.
Svojevrsni analitički izazov predstavljaće primena
ove teorije na muzički tok koji povremeno izlazi iz
okvira tonalnog jezika (u kom je muzički gest
originalno utemeljen) čime se proširuje polje njene
primene, ali i ukazuje na najproduktivniji aspekt
današnje muzičke semiotike - istraživanje relacije
muzika-telo.

Full textAs the score of "Seven, They Are Seven" for tenor solo, choir and orchestra has been printed in Russia in 1922 without the composer's consent, a basic question is to know whether the musical text of this work, neglected and yet one of Prokofiev's dearest, is authentic.The origin of the Mesopotamian incantation transcribed by the poet Constantin Balmont, from which Prokofiev drafted the text finally put in music, was recalled by comparing at once the works of Balmont to the composer's writings.Previously unknown connections could thus be weaved, and the successive roles played by each in the constitution of the final text were clearly established. Research conducted in light of unpublished documents made possible to trace the origins of this work and to understand the conditions in which the 1st edition had been made, from a recently discovered autograph manuscript.Also, four rediscovered French translations made for this work's creation confirmed in a comparative study the key role played by the composer in this process. By taking into account their history, their specificity, and how they were drawn up, we systematically compared, for the realization of the critical edition of this score, three complete manuscripts as well as a vocal score and an annotated edition completed by a manuscript, all unpublished, to the three versions printed in 1922 and 1933. Representing the first critical edition of a work by Prokofiev, this research fits in line with the most recent publications, in order to provide interpreters as well as musicologists a clear score which agrees, at best, to the musical thought of Sergey Prokofiev

Full textThe present study investigates the relationship between “explanations” and musical interpretation. More specifically the question why do I play Prokofievs 6th piano sonata in a particular way? Every interpreter makes choices when preparing and performing a musical work. Many such choices involve tempo, dynamics, or phrasing, as well as other musical parameters. This study explores the degree to which these choices may be based on analytic “explanations" of the structure of the music. Building upon the theoretical work of Leonard Meyer and Karl Popper, I identify certain passages which highlight the diversity of interpretation, examining the differences through structural and interpretive analyses. Above all, the study seeks to understand the “tacit knowledge” embodied in certain approaches to musical interpretation — and, in the process, to make it explicit. Therefore, the results are of potential value not only in performance analysis, but in the training of performers. The project culminated in a performance and live recording of the sonata which were influenced by my analysis of the music.

Full textI studien analyserades Prokofjevs åttonde pianosonat utifrån interpretation och spelteknik. Prokofjev befann sig i kommunistiska Sovjetunionen, mitt under andra världskriget, och skrev musik med mycket samlad erfarenhet. Syftet med studien var att belysa viktiga interpretations- och teknikbaserade aspekter vid uppförandet av sonaten, baserat på egen beprövad erfarenhet. För att åstadkomma detta övades stycket in under flera månader, medan reflektioner skrevs ner baserat på övningspassen samt inspelningar. Studiens resultat påvisar att tolkning bör göra motiven så tydliga som möjligt samt lyfta fram olika karaktärer i musiken som styrker temat, medan tekniska svårigheter i krävande partier ofta löses genom att fokusera på jämnhet samt att öva med flera sinnen i fokus. Resultatet är användbart även vid instudering av andra omfattande verk och är en dokumentation på hur sådan omfattande pianomusik kan tas an.

Full textThis essay examines the extent to which Semyon Kotko can be considered a conformist opera. Part One is a survey of Socialist Realism and its manifestation in Soviet literature and music during the 1930's; Parts Two and Three examine the text and music of Semyon Kotko as representative of the doctrine. Consideration is given throughout the study to the opposing influences of Kataev and Meyerhold on Prokofiev, and to the political events surrounding the opera's composition.

Full textThe musical setting of prose texts becomes a current practice in the early-20th-century vocal repertory. On the model of the so called “literary” opera, Prokofiev aims at creating a modern musical drama. Since the 1910’s, he chooses an original method based on the musical setting of his own texts, elaborated from literary sources in narrative prose. This raises a legitimate interrogation on the musical dimension of his lyric work, characterized by the presence of a material that, unlike versified texts, is both rhythmically emancipated and structurally irregular. Prokofiev’s first major project for the theater, The Gambler is the first 20th-century musical setting of a work by Dostoyevsky, of whom the importance was being rediscovered. Dostoyevsky’s novel and the two versions of Prokofiev’s libretto are examined from the point of view of transtextuality, in an attempt to define the nature of the literary source and its composite character after the transformation by the composer in the opera. This analysis is inspired by Gérard Genette’s work on secondary literature. The logically following step of the research is the restitution of the process of elaboration of Dostoyevsky’s text by the composer-librettist aiming at adapting it to the norms of a libretto and to the musical dramaturgy of the planned work. The comparative method applied to two musical versions of The Gambler enlightens the specificity of Prokofiev’s writing and his stylistic evolution, in order to study the interaction of the verbal and musical elements from the points of view of rhythm, structure and intonation. The thesis concludes on a definition of the translinguistic nature of the relationship created in a vocal work between the two elements, textual and musical. The research raises the question of the systematic study of the musical treatment of prose in 20th-century vocal music

Full textHamlet has long been an inseparable part of Russian national identity. Staging Hamlet in Russia during the Stalin era, however, presented particular problems connected with the ideological framework imposed on the arts and culture as well as with Stalin’s own negative perceived view of the tragedy. The two major productions of Hamlet in Russia during this period were those directed by Nikolai Akimov (1932) and Sergei Radlov (1938). Thorough re-examination of these productions, as undertaken in the central chapters of this dissertation, reveals much previously unknown detail about their conception, realisation, reception and afterlife. It highlights the importance of the role of music composed for them by Dmitry Shostakovich and Sergei Prokofiev, respectively, and it suggests a complex interaction of individual and institutional agendas. This work has been made possible by numerous visits to Russian archives, which contain invaluable documents such as production books and stenographic reports of discussions, previously unreferenced in Western scholarship. These central chapters are preceded by a historical overview of Hamlet in Russia and of music and Shakespeare in general. They are followed by a survey of major adaptations of Hamlet in the late-Stalin era and beyond, concentrating on those with significant musical contributions. The outcome is a richer and more complex account of the familiar image of Hamlet as a mirror of Russian/Soviet society
