In a letter dated September 1, 1831, Bellini wrote to the soprano Giuditta Pasta that "Romani believes [that this subject] will be very effective, and absolutely ideal for your encyclopedic character, because that is the kind of character Norma has". Indeed, Pasta's vocal and dramatic range was encyclopedic: that March, she had created the very different Bellini role of Amina, the lyrically vulnerable Swiss village maiden, in La sonnambula (The Sleepwalker). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-flat_major http://www.musicwithease.com/norma-synopsis.html http://forum.davidicke.com/showpost....37&postcount=7 |

Dvořák was interested in the Native American music and African-American spirituals he heard in America. In the same article, Dvořák stated that he regarded the symphony's second movement as a "sketch or study for a later work, either a cantata or opera ... which will be based upon Longfellow's [The Song of] Hiawatha" (Dvořák never actually wrote such a piece). He also wrote that the third movement scherzo was "suggested by the scene at the feast in Hiawatha where the Indians dance"... and that "the music of the two races bore a remarkable similarity to the music of Scotland". http://forum.davidicke.com/showpost....&postcount=255 |
