André Lischke Study Day

Serious TopicsSerious TopicsA protean and disconcerting genius, with an enviable longevity (1882-1971): a career ranging from the last decades of the Russian national school to serialism, passing through neoclassicism, jazz, and drawing inspiration mainly from dance and the sacred. The dances are inspired by various folklores as well as ancient Greece; the sacred takes many forms, from pagan trance to biblical hieraticism, Christian faith, or timeless incantation. Throughout all these evolutions, Stravinsky's musical signature retains its identity. The conference, illustrated with numerous musical examples and commentaries, as well as projections and readings of texts, will be conducted by André Lischke, author of "Histoire de la musique russe des origines à la Révolution" and "Guide de l'opéra russe", artistic director of Le Chant du Monde records (1989-1997) and lecturer at the Arts-Music department of the University of Évry (2001-2020).
