What historical context does the episode give for Ibsen’s Peer Gynt in 1867 Oslo?
14h-14h30, Franck Ferrand raconte sur Radio Classique.
We are at Oslo in 1867. It's the name of the 200 exposition universal de Paris. At the epoch and just in 1925, d'accord the village Oslo, it's appalled Christiania, du nom de son fondateur, Christian IV of Danemark. And it's at Christiania that se font and seem the grand reputation of authors, the romanciers. Dramaturge in Norvage. Ibsen. He was a pen quadragénaire at the epoch, and his grand drame, poetic and philosophic, per Gunther a tragedy, or plutôt a tragic comedy of character fantastic, and it will say that the portée réelle is philosophy. Ibsen is allowed to hear this, it is all puzzled in the imaginary traditions popular and Norvège.
The folklorists in the years 1840-1850 have preserving a culture traditional Norvegian that is figured in the context, if you didn't dive to that. notre Ipsène. Au cœur de ces légendes se distingue la figure de Pergint. C'est une... A figure semi-mythique qui mélange reality and legend, a chasseur and aventurier, connu for his exploits completely extravagant, for his history fabulous, for some character until vantard, for his voyage or confins of fantastic, their aventures, despétition, d'ailleurs, duty where the personages and the aventuriers Do they affect their approach on their responsibilities, on the retrouving, subshumant. It's the view in a certain manner. Ibsen has repeated that. He has created a drame symbolic that will contribute to the emergence of them modern in literature and in philosophy.
He will say individualism in that fin of the 19th century where the notion is comprised. He will say the conventions social and their remise in cause. This is in the case of her drame, a remise in cause violence. He will say of the quote of sense in the world and the quote of identity, which is the current design of Pergunt. The text original of Henrik Ibsen has been like a special long poem in verse and in prose. The reality is that it has not been pensed at the origin for a representation of theatre classic. It's an epoch where we live volunteer the theatre.
How does Henrik Ibsen blend Norwegian folklore and philosophy in the drama?
And a lot of people not live in theatre or not just at the capital lisquillment on the feet a theater in which they were habituated. They possessed the convention. It's exactly in this Ibsen. And it said that in a music scene, in confiant compositor Edward Grieg an adaptation scenic, we would get the obstacle, if you can say, and pass at an adaptation scenic. It will not be a few days. avant d'y arriver, and it's in 1876, exactly February 1876, that Pergunt est présenté au public, présenté bien entendu, avec la musique de la musique de Grig. Franck Ferrand sur Radio Classique It was very frequent at the epoch. The grand theatres have an orchestra. Certain of the pieces on the case by a music of scene.
And that's what Griggs. He will say to adapter to the extraordinary variety, the character four milling of that œuvre dramatic of Gibson. He will multiply the inventions, create a music of a grand richness, richness harmonic, richness orchestral. He will enter the instruments that we have the habit to enter a military orchestra. Grig will create a partition that very probably is for people on the immense success of that piece in 1876. Parce que it's a success, too, it's a success. Grig would be low, it would create quasiment an opera. He's amusing to create a drame which had been a bit in all the senses, to create a continuity and coherence. He has that piece, he has the Pergunt a sort of too harmonious, the tool dynamic.
He already would be encore plus long. The direction of the theatre demanded to segment, to make a pet morceaux, to adapt to different evolutions of the mise en scene. And it's afraid that he will get the music to scene the suit. It's like one appeal to scène because they develop concertant, because they are fit for the concert. We appear that the suit for orchestra. Grig va tirar the Pergunt the suit.
Why was the 1876 premiere of Peer Gynt with Edvard Grieg’s music a turning point?
Suite pour orchestre.
The version du centenaire de Pergunt, la suite numéro one, on l'occurrence c'est au matin.
