Stravinsky and His World brings together an international roster of scholars to explore fresh perspectives on the life and music of Igor Stravinsky. Situating Stravinsky in new intellectual and musical contexts, the essays in this volume shed valuable light on one of the most important composers of the twentieth century.
Contributors examine Stravinsky’s interaction with Spanish and Latin American modernism, rethink the stylistic label 鈥渘eoclassicism鈥 with a section on the ideological conflict over his lesser-known opera buffa Mavra, and reassess his connections to his homeland, paying special attention to Stravinsky’s visit to the Soviet Union in 1962. The essays also explore Stravinsky’s musical and religious differences with Arthur Louri茅, delve into Stravinsky’s collaboration with Pyotr Suvchinsky and Roland-Manuel in the genesis of his groundbreaking Poetics of Music, and look at how the movement within stasis evident in the scores of Stravinsky’s Orpheus and Oedipus Rex reflected the composer’s fierce belief in fate. Rare documents鈥攊ncluding Spanish and Mexican interviews, Russian letters, articles by Arthur Louri茅, and rarely seen French and Russian texts鈥攕upplement the volume, bringing to life Stravinsky’s rich intellectual milieu and intense personal relationships.
The contributors are Tatiana Baranova, Leon Botstein, Jonathan Cross, Val茅rie Dufour, Gretchen Horlacher, Tamara Levitz, Kl谩ra M贸ricz, Leonora Saavedra, and Svetlana Savenko.
