Англичане о Римском-Корсакове

‘About as wild and barbaric as well could be imagined…’: the critical reception of Rimsky-Korsakov in nineteenth-century England. Автор:

By the end of the nineteenth century Rimsky-Korsakov was the most frequently performed and well-known Russian composer in England after Tchaikovsky and Rubinstein. However, the favourable reception that Tchaikovsky, in particular, had enjoyed in the English press was a sharp contrast to the attacks that were levelled from many sides against Rimsky-Korsakov and other composers viewed at the time as ‘Nationalist’. In this article, which builds upon recent work by Gareth Thomas, Philip Bullock and others, I examine English critical attitudes towards Rimsky-Korsakov, extending my assessment much earlier than previously attempted. In doing so, I expose and evaluate the critical environment that led to the determined advocacy of Russian music by such authors as Rosa Newmarch and her successors. I propose sources for the disputes that coloured later English interest in Russian music, at the same time suggesting that critical reception did not always shape, nor indeed reflect, audience responses.
