Les Maries de la Tour Eiffel / Cocteau, Jean ; Massin., 1994

Item

Identifier: CC-62715-68527

Scope and Contents The title is of a ballet in one act with choreography by Borlin, libretto by Cocteau, music by Auric, Milhaud, Tailleferre, Honegger, and Poulenc, set by Irene Lagut and costumes by J. Hugo. Premiered 18 June 1921 by the Ballets Suedois at the Theatre des Champs-Elysees in Paris with C. Ari, J. Figoni, and K. Vahlander. The ballet, a farce, is set on the first platform of the Eiffel Tower where a hunchbacked photographer tries to take pictures of a wedding party. Although L. Durey was not involved in the ballet, it is none the less considered to be a showpiece for the musical ideas of the group of composers known collectively as Les Six. Massin has rendered Cocteau's libretto in a wide variety of bold contemporary and ancient typefaces with a concrete poetic appearance. He often places the text across facing pages. "This is a historically famous work, but one more often encountered in music history books than on concert or theatrical stages. One is much more likely to hear...

Magic Afternoon/Change/Party for Six / Bauer, Wolfgang., 1969

Item

Identifier: CC-21349-21760

Scope and Contents Also designated pocket 2.Wikipedia: Bauer was born in Graz, Styria. His breakthrough play was Magic Afternoon [current record] in 1967, in which he portrays four youths who interrupt their lazy and boring afternoon by unmotivated outbreaks of violence and aggression (Magic Afternoon was adapted for the screen most recently by Catherine Jelski in 2000 as The Young Unknowns). After two more successes, Change (1969) and Gespenster (Ghosts, 1973), Bauer's plays became increasingly surreal and experimental. Bauer though resisted any labelling by academia and critics alike until his death. Most of his plays during 1967 and 1990 were translated into English by Martin Esslin, remembered for coining the term Theatre of the Absurd. In the late 1970s and early 1980s San Francisco's Magic Theatre performed almost each season a play of Bauer, 1993 his play Tadpoletigermosquitos at Mulligan's was premiered at New York's Ohio Theatre. Wolfgang Bauer was a heavy smoker and drinker. After a series...

Orpheus: A World in Chorus; A 20th Century Literature of Synthesis / Barzun, Henri Martin ; Joyce J ; Pound E ; Apollinaire G ; Goll Y., 1962

Item

Identifier: CC-43451-45514

Scope and Contents

Dr. Barzun was born in France, where his youthful scholarly associations put him in close contact with the earliest trends in modernist poetry, art, and music in the 20th Century. He contributed to the early Dada movement through his poetry and was a friend of and collaborator with early French cubists. According to Barzun, the Orphic movement in literature relates to "Simultaneity" in art (c.1910). A good example of this movement is James Joyce's Ulysses. The text iof this book is very dense with philosophical issues but an exact definition of the Orphic movement with examples is not presented. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
