Editorial Review Product Description Known primarily as the composer of The Nutcracker Suite and other legendary pieces, Tchaikovsky was also a noted musical dramatist.Here, in the first book devoted to the subject, his operas are explored in depth: from his two most famous, Eugene Oneginand The Queen of Spades, to such lesser-known works as The Maid of Orléans.The social and psychological complexity of these operas, not to mention their musical brilliance, confirm Tchaikovsky's reputation as his country's greatest opera composer.He displayed great versatility in the range of genres in which he worked, from the tragic to the fantastical, the allegorical to the comic, and he employed a rich variety of musical styles, creating operas that are still performed widely today. In this thorough and engaging examination, author Henry Zajaczkowski both assesses and re-appraises these works.He provides an overview of Tchaikovsky's opera career, complete with synopses, musical and dramatic analysis, and historical context that places the composer in the pantheon of great masters of the form. |

Editorial Review Product Description Tchaikovsky's distinguished biographer, Alexander Poznansky, reveals new findings from his most recent archival explorations in Kiln, Tchaikovsky's home. Poznansky makes accessible for the first time the full text of perviously censored letters, clarifying issues about the composer's life that until now have remained mere conjecture. Leon Botstein examines the world of realist art that was so influential in Tchaikovsky's day, while Janet Kennedy describes how interpretations of Tchaikovsky's ballet Sleeping Beauty act as a barometer of the aesthetic and even political climate of several generations. Natalia Minibayeva elucidates the First Orchestral Suite as a workshop for Tchaikovsky's composition of large-scale works, including symphony, opera, and ballet, while Susanne Dammann discusses the problematic Fourth Symphony as a work perfectly poised between East and West. Arkadii Klimovitsky considers Tchaikovsky's role as a link between Russia's Golden and Silver Ages. The extensive interaction between music and literature in this period forms the basis for Rosamund Bartlett's essay on creative parallels between Tchaikovsky and Chekhov. Richard Wortman describes the political climate at the end of Tchaikovsky's life, including Alexander III's mania for re-creating seventeenth-century Russian culture. Caryl Emerson, Kadja Grönke, and Leslie Kearney examine a number of issues raised by Tchaikovsky's operas. Marina Kostalevsky translates Nikolai Kashkin's 1899 review of Tchaikovsky's controversial operaOrleanskaia Deva (The Maid of Orleans). The book concludes with examples of theoretical writing by Tchaikovsky and Rimsky-Korsakov, authors of Russia's first two systematic books on music theory. Lyle Neff translates and provides commentary on compositional issues that Tchaikovsky discusses in personal correspondence, as well as Rimsky-Korsakov's analysis of his own opera Snegurochka (The Snow Maiden). Tchaikovsky and His World will change how we understand the life, works, and intellectual milieu of one of the most important and beloved composers of the nineteenth century. These new revelations say less about Tchaikovsky than about thepublic's changing attitudes. Older biographers, like the one bydistinguished English critic and scholar Edwin Evans, now out ofprint, attributed Tchaikovsky's depressive, melancholy tendencies tohis Slavic heritage and the early loss of his mother. They found noevidence of his sexuality in his music, unlike some contributors tothis volume. Leslie Kearney, for example, in her analysis ofTchaikovsky's opera The Maid of Orleans, argues that themovingly human heroine of Schiller's play attracted him because heidentified with her "androgynousness." However, the book's primarily musical articles are interesting andrewarding. Leon Botstein, president of Bard College and a Renaissanceman of boundless erudition, explores nationalism versuscosmopolitanism in Tchaikovsky's music and the paintings of his day,with many beautiful reproductions. The essay is fascinating, but itfails to explain its basic concept--psychological realism inmusic. There is a meticulous analysis of an orchestral suite; animpenetrably abstruse one of the Fourth Symphony in aterrible translation; a delightful account of three balletproductions; and more. --Edith Eisler Customer Reviews (1)
You'd be sorry to miss this if you like Tchaikovsky Of greatest interest are the essays by Poznansky on Tchaikovsky himself.We are treated to the most intimate details of his sexuality (not all this material was destroyed it seems by his brother) though the treatment is unsalacious and full of objectivity if not humour.These facts emerge from previously untranslated or hitherto unreleased material and represent the latest material emerging about his life.Poznansky shows us that homosexuality at the time was not as much a problem as it is supposed to have been, and that people then were more or less as people are now - not less enlightened in any sense.Attitudes on morality may have shifted since then, but there was also that much more discretion on such matters at the time. Poznansky unravels the mystery surrounding Tchaikovsky's death authoritatively and though conspiracy theories will still abound, I think the matter is laid to rest. This is also a celebration of Russia and the greatest flowering of its art and culture, not to mention music under Tchaikovsky.We get treated to essays on Russian painting with some fine copies of the works described, the coronation of the Tsar and on writers like Chekov. This book is also (along with Poznansky's essays), a psychological dissection into roles of gender in history and myth, with one especially good essay "Tchaikovsky Androgyne".There are also some good essays on musical theory. Expertly edited, this is a study in scholarship, presentation and warm intelligence.Tchaikovsky emerges unscathed and as grand as ever to those who have sought to know him and his muse. ...
