"I am the vessel through which 'Le Sacre' passed," Stravinsky famously declared. The statement is no less true of 'Petrouchka' (which I prefer to 'Le Sacre'). In fact, it is this ballet --- so rarely performed, for such a familiar and brilliant score --- which aptly illustrates the process. Talent, intelligence, and what passes for 'le sacre feu' (which Nureyev and mad Nijinsky had in spades) is all well and good, but we are all just vessels of soul and, at times, prisoners of it. How competently we manage our incarceration, however, is largely up to us. Or so it seems, eh? . . . .
@Voracious Reader I have two higher degrees in musicology, have lectured around the country including at the Smithsonian Institute, am a conductor and classical pianist. What you wrote while being rather simplistic in its meaning, does not even address my objection to the original statement, which I must therefore ascribe you some form of reading comprehension issues. Please go back and re-read the original statement and my objection. Also, what I have FORGOTTEN about Stravinsky, the Ballet Russe, etc, you never knew.
What mad Nijinsky wrote About Diaghilev Is true of the normal heart; For the error bred in the bone Of each woman and each man Craves what it cannot have, Not universal love But to be loved alone. - W. H. Auden Lazlos, it is perfectly fair to question my authority to write about Stravinsky’s process in ‘Petrouchka’, and admittedly, I am not nearly so steeped in the ‘Ballet Ruse’ of it than some - but I do know a bit of Stravinsky’s later process in collaborating with Auden and Chester Kallman, in their collaboration on ‘The Rake’s Progess’, and certain discussions relevant to Nijinsky and Diaghilev given that they were name-dropped in Auden’s poem “September 1, 1939”. Kallman in particular was most curious to know Stravinsky’s further insights, beyond what ‘mad Nijinsky’ wrote in his famously self-absorbed (and very sad) autobiography. I do appreciate your contraction of ‘You’re hope”, though it IS for me even an oustanding question, still, and so ... a question I cannot adequately answer.
I don't know how they are dealing with this character now ? Blackfaces are not popular anymore ! Maybe they can give the role to a black dancer, like Othello in the classic theatre of Shakespeare.
Comme dans toutes les créations des "ballets russes" de Diaghilev et Nijinsky, les décors et les costumes donnent beaucoup de charme au ballet. Le personnage du Maure ne pourrait plus être représenté comme dans cette version, et dans la suite du ballet c'est pire malheureusement!
There is a video here on RUclips called "Nureyev and The Joffrey Ballet: Tribute to Nijinsky" which shows Petrouchka in its entirety (along with Spectre de la Rose and Afternoon of a Faun)....imo, Nureyev's performance as Petrouchka in that 1980 piece is far superior to this one.....amazing.
What is the significance of the last 3 minute section? Where the puppet is by himself in the room? It looks like an abused child being locked in isolation, although I know this ballet has some sort of political connection or message. But that's what it looks like to me.
J saw PETROUCHKA in " Hommage à DIAGHILEW " at Opera-Paris in 1972:December with Rudolf Nureev j don't remember it , nothing for me only in this " HOMMAGE " Apollon Musagete " with Wilfried Piollet in Polymnie unforgettable with Nureev, Noella Pontois in " les sylphides " - Nureev .Petrouchka by Fokine is historic-ballet not for me j dont't like it , beautiful colors and no more
As a historic study of dance and what is culturally acceptable, this is an interesting piece. However, Petrouchka should be relegated to the history books along with minstrel shows. The blackface and racial stereotypes are just too problematic
Who are you to say that one of the most amazing ballets should be "relegated to the history books" just because some aspects of it make you uncomfortable?
@@grafplaten it’s not about me being uncomfortable. It’s about the fact that Blackface was used to caricature African people. Blackface always depicted Black people as silly, stupid, violent, or childish. It is an offensive practice that needs to stop
@@suzannebudlong8376 It _is_ about you being uncomfortable and comparing a Russian ballet with American minstrel shows. They are not comparable, especially when one considers the history of the different countries and the implications of the stage makeup in those cultures. Yes, the moor is a caricature of sorts--he is a puppet, after all. Petruška (Pierrot) is also a caricature, shown with an extremely white face, as well as being presented as weak, unattractive, sad, cuckolded, in short thoroughly pathetic, whereas the moor is the stronger, more attractive figure and wins the ballerina's affections. You have a right to be offended, if you wish, and to allow your interpretations to ruin your enjoyment of the ballet.
@@grafplaten what a weak ass argument. of course it can be compared because both american minstrel shows and this ballet have something in common: blackface. it’s not a personal feeling it’s literally racist. get off this app if you’re gonna cry about somebody pointing out the obvious. google is free. so you would know that the characterization of the “puppet” in blackface is still VERY reminiscent of american minstrelsy characters. idk why you’re so keen on defending blackface unless you’d be somebody who supports that..??
@@harmonicminorenthusiast Sorry to inform you, but Russian ballet is not reminiscent of ANYTHING American. They are completely different cultures and histories.
Everyone sees it. No one says it's okay, but it obviously wasn't meant to offend anyone back then. Especially since the character is positive. I'm Russian and I've never liked black characters being portrayed that way in the old cartoons, books or shows, but at the same time I know there was never a bad intention. I've never seen such characters being evil, dumb or made fun of because of their appearance. Moreover, most of them had anti-racist plots to educate non-American kids in the 70s or 80s that had no idea about racism. Like the one in which a Russian girl gets a black boy doll for Christmas and asks her mom why he looks so sad. The mom tells her about slavery, and the girl decides to make a big show with her toys to welcome the doll and show him he's loved. But she falls asleep before playing with the toys and sees the rest of her play in her sleep. Meanwhile her mom takes the doll and draws a smile on his face. So the daugher wakes up and believes it wasn't just a dream. I can link you that cartoon, but I don't think it was ever translated. Better call out those modern people that know what blackface is but keep doing and supporting that.
@@vincentmarsan9416 if even if the intention wasn’t to offend, the impact is still the same; mocking and dehumanizing Black folks into so many racist caricatures that are still portrayed to this day. if you’re seriously gonna get in your feels for somebody calling out blackface then log off. what’s with yall making exceptions for blackface? also before the “oh so you’re going to cancel petrushka?!” hive comes, nobody said that. the point is to create dialogue with how the end point of that character is still racist and that it shouldn’t be portrayed anymore, as well as how we can unlearn those stereotypes seen and “unseen”.
@@harmonicminorenthusiast I'm not saying that this is perfectly okay. All that I'm saying is that the people who worked on that look didn't know it was offensive. But what's the point to "call it out" now? Do you think people don't realise how bad it was? I totally get it when people call out someone who does it to this day and thinks that there's nothing wrong about it. I'm really sorry if your or somebody else's feelings were hurt. But I want to make it clear: I don't defend it and don't think that it's okay. I'm also capable of dialogue and wouldn't start all that "oh so you're going to cancel it" BS you probably expect from me. Russian culture and history are VERY different from American, so there's always a chance that I'm missing something since I don't have the same cultural background as you.

これの違うキャストの昔のビデオ持ってた。しかしヌレエフの卓越した表現力に改めて驚愕する。短い作品だが物凄く感情移入してしまう。
What a classic Stravinsky ballet of Petrouchka with the great Nureyev in the title role sorry can't spell.
thanks for posting ! It´s fantastic !

How do YOU know that what applies to Le Sacre also applies to Petrouchka? What is your evidence? If any. Or is it just your guess. You're hope?

What mad Nijinsky wrote
About Diaghilev
Is true of the normal heart;
For the error bred in the bone
Of each woman and each man
Craves what it cannot have,
Not universal love
But to be loved alone.
- W. H. Auden
