Neither here nor there: the dramatic tension between the spoken word and music performance in Igor Stravinsky'sOedipus rex (1927)Chan, Chor-shan, Sharon., 陳楚珊. January 2012 (has links)
Stravinsky’s opera-oratorio Oedipus Rex was based on Sophocles’ classic tragedy
Oedipus Tyrannus. Jean Cocteau wrote the libretto for Stravinsky in French, the
text was then translated into Latin. Le speaker speaking in the audience’s native
language with a detached voice is added to the opera-oratorio to narrate the events
of the story throughout. With its mixed genres, the juxtaposition of the dead
language and the vernacular, the contrast of the spoken word and the music
performance, and the intertexual references in the music, a strong dialectical
tension is created.
This study is a critical review of the narrative mode of Stravinsky’s Oedipus Rex.
For a very long time, literature on Oedipus Rex has mainly focused on the
presentation of its music. However, as an opera-oratorio, Oedipus Rex is
composed to stage. This study aims at investigating the theatrical significance of
the work, for its theatrical presentation is influential and profound in 20th century
music theatre. Of particular note is the use of le speaker. The narration inserted in
between each musical episode creates a sense of ambivalence in the storytelling.
The work is therefore a bold challenge to the way stories have been told in theatre
over the past centuries.
The discussion concludes with the analysis of Julie Taymor and Seiji Ozawa’s
film version of Oedipus Rex in 1992. With Japanese elements infused in the work,
the dramatic tension between the spoken word and the music performance is
further polarised. This production is an example of how a combination of the
spoken word and the music performance pushes the Oedipus story further away
from Sophocles’ original. / published_or_final_version / Music / Master / Master of Philosophy

Sirius on earth : 2001-2003, a chamber opera in five scenes, in full score / Sirius on earthFrehner, Paul (Paul Anton) January 2004 (has links)
Sirius on Earth is a chamber opera that deals satirically with social and political issues that are pertinent to a Western multicultural urban setting. Angela Murphy wrote the libretto, which is based on an original dramatic scenario conceived of by the composer. This dissertation consists of two parts: the opera in full score and an analysis of the opera. Sirius on Earth is scored for a cast of eight singers and an ensemble of fifteen players. The analysis is related to the overall objectives of the work which include representing and satirizing the musical and cultural diversity inherent in multicultural Western cities, symbolized in the opera by the city of Sirius, through the composer's individual approach to musical pluralism. Important musical and dramatic features of the opera are discussed in the analysis, including modal organization, musical characterization and techniques of recontextualization such as allusion and parody. Conclusions dissect the opera's underlying satirical and dystopian viewpoint.
