The Devil’s violinDuringthelastfewyearsbeforethestartoftheFirstWorldWar,Stravinskyandhisfamily,afterspendingthesummerinRussia,hadbeeninthehabitofresidinginSwitzerlandfortheautumnandwinter.Theoutbreakofhostilitiesforcedthem to settle there from July 1914 until 1920.Through the Swiss conductor Ernest Ansermet, whose acquaintanceStravinskyhadrecentlymade,hemettheVaudoiswriterCharlesFerdinandRamuz.Thetwomenfirstworkedin1915-16 on a ‘burlesque’ story, Renard, whose libretto, fashioned by Stravinsky from Afanasyev’s collection of folk tales,wasadaptedbyRamuz.Inearly1918,itwasonceagainAfanasyev’stalesthatinspiredStravinskyandRamuztowriteHistoire du soldat (TheSoldier’sTale),notablyone(no.154)thatrelatestheadventuresofadeserterfromthearmyandtheDevilwhotakeshissoulinexchangeforhisviolin,aneminentlyFaustiantheme.ThechoiceofsubjectwasnotunconnectedtothenewsfromRussia.AfterplacinghighhopesontheRussianRevolutionofFebruary1917,StravinskywasdeeplyaffectedbytheturnofeventsinOctoberwhichmarkedtheadventoftheBolsheviks.Deprivedofmaterialresources,hedidallhecouldtoremedythesituationandconceivedtheideaofatravellingproductionwithactors,dancers and a small ensemble of seven instruments, as it were a ‘theatre of poverty’, to quote Pierre Boulez’s aptdescription.RamuztransposedthesettingtotheVaudoisregion,‘betweenDengesandDenezy’,andlaterrelated:
Eachofushadsoughtonlytoremainwhathewasandtotakeadvantageofhischaracterwithoutimposingtoomanyconstraintsonit.Notbeingamanofthetheatre,IhadsuggestedtoStravinskythatIshouldwrite,ratherthanaplayintheliteralsense,a‘tale’,explainingtohimthattheatrecouldbeconceivedinamuchbroadersensethanwasusuallythecaseandlentitselfperfectly,forexample(andIstillthinkso),towhatonemightcallthenarrativestyle.OnStravinsky’sside,ithadbeenagreedthathewouldconceivehismusicinsuchawaythatitcouldbecompletelyindependentofthetextandwouldconstitutea‘suite’,whichwouldallowittobeperformedinconcert.
StravinskyandRamuzreceivedfinancialsupport fromtheSwissphilanthropistWernerReinhart tostagethework,whichwastobeperformedinLausanneon28September1918underthedirectionofErnestAnsermet;thisenabledthemtocommissioncostumesfromRenéAuberjonoisandbringinmusiciansfromGenevaandZurich.GeorgesPitoëffdevisedthechoreographyandperformeditwithhiswifeLudmilla,whiletheroleoftheNarratorwasassignedtoJeanVillard-Gilles.Afteraneclipseofseveralyears,Histoiredusoldatwasgivenagaininthespringof1924onthestageoftheThéâtredesChamps-Élysées,andsubsequentlyinGermany,andbegantoenjoyincreasingsuccess.
Thestorymaybesummarisedasfollows.ASoldier(Joseph)walkingtowardshisvillageisapproachedbytheDevildisguisedasanoldman;thelattermanagestobartertheSoldier’sviolinforamagicbookandtakeshimawayforthreedays.Infact,thesethreedayslastthreeyears;whenhereturnstohisvillage,nobodyrecognisesJoseph,whorealisesthathehasbeentricked.TheDeviltellshimhecanmakehisfortunewiththemagicbook.Whenhebecomesrich,hewantstobuybackhisviolinfromtheDevil,nowdisguisedasanoldwoman,butisnolongerabletoplayit;hetearsupthemagicbookinafury.Ruined,hegoestoavillagewheretheKing’sdaughterisillandwhoevercuresherwillbegrantedherhandinmarriage.HemeetstheDevildisguisedasavirtuosoviolinistandplayscardswithhim.Althoughhekeepslosing,hepliestheDevilwithdrinkuntilhelosesconsciousness,andthenrecoverstheviolin.HegoestoseethesickPrincessandcuresherbyplayingheraTango,WaltzandRagtime;theDevilappearsbuttheSoldieroverpowershim.Oncetheyaremarried,theSoldierdecidestovisithishomevillagewiththePrincessandfallsintotheDevil’sclutchesoncemore.TheNarratorandtwocharacters(theSoldierandtheDevil)sharethetext,therolesbeinginterchangeable,sothattheNarratorsometimesspeaksthewordsoftheDevilortheSoldier.AlthoughthetextisperformedrhythmicallyintheMarchingSongandTheDevil’sDance,itismoregenerallyspokenwiththecadencesofnormalspeech,withorwithoutmusic.
Thefirstmusicalsequencespunctuatethesuccessivescenes,butfromtheLittleConcert,whichprecedesthehealingofthePrincess,theyfollowoneanothermoreclosely.Theinstrumentalforces(violinanddoublebass,clarinetandbassoon, cornet and trombone, and percussion consisting of bass drum, field drum (tambour), two side drums,tambourine,cymbalsandtriangle)arehighlyunusual.AlthoughStravinskyclaimedmuchlatertohavebeeninfluencedby jazz, the instrumental scoring seems more reminiscent of the bands of klezmer musicians (violin, double bass,clarinet and percussion, sometimes with trumpet and/or trombone) that he heard in Russia when spending hissummersinUstilug,wheretherewasalargeJewishcommunity.HehadalsobeenfascinatedbyagroupofHungarianmusiciansperforminginacabaretinGenevawithAladárRáczatthecimbalom.HencewefindatraceofthisGypsysonority inthepredominantanddramaticrolethattheviolinplays inTheSoldier’sTale.Thetessituraemployed isconcentratedinthelowregister:beneathitssometimesalmostawkwardsurfaceimitatinga‘squeakyfiddle’,thepartis fearsomelydifficultwith itsmanydoublestops,bariolagesandopen-stringcrossings.Thewidecompassof theclarinet,aninstrumentofwhichStravinskywasespeciallyfond,helpstoenrichandreinforcethemediumregisteroftheensemble.
Fromthisuniquegroupinwhichtheinstruments‘dialoguewitheachother inthemostunexpectedway’,asAndréSchaeffnerputit,Stravinskydrawsoneverystyle:afolkcharacterwiththeMarchingSong,intowhichheintroducesoffbeataccents;thefashionabledancesoftheperiod(tango,waltzandragtime)thatthePrincessperforms,orthepasodoble,whichhehaddiscoveredinJune1916duringhistriptoSpainwithDiaghilev’sBalletsRusses,inTheRoyalMarch; the ‘learned style’ in The Great Chorale and The Little Chorale; a style close to the works of Bartók in TheLittleConcert.OnlythePastoraleisdeeplyStravinskianinessence:inthissectionwithoutpercussion,hesucceedsincreatinganatmosphereofpurepoetryanddream.Nevertheless,allStravinsky’sborrowingsherearefarfrombeingsimplepastiches.Forexample,hemetamorphosestheTangointoapieceforviolinaccompaniedbypercussionandthenclarinet,graduallydistortingthehighlycharacteristicrhythmofthedance.HeusesasimilardeviceinRagtime:thisstartsasagenrepieceandturnsintosomethingthathasnothingincommonwiththedanceitself,beforetheinitialthemereturnsalmostinnocently.TheWaltz,whichisreminiscentoftheoneinPetrouchka,isalsoafineexampleofparody:theshrillsoundoftheviolin,thefalseoroffbeatbasslines.InTheGreatChorale,StravinskyusestraditionalLutheranmelodiesthathesprinkleswithstrangeharmonies.Finally,inthelastsequence,theTriumphalMarchoftheDevil,heironicallycombinesTheLittleConcert,thankstowhichtheSoldierregainedhisfreedom,andtheTango,withwhichhewonthePrincess’sheart.Thus,whilecreatingaworkwithadeceptivelypopularandparodicappearance,Stravinskysucceeds,throughthegeniusofhismusicallanguage,inproducingmusicofextraordinaryrhythmicandsonicrichness.Frequentlyplayedasaconcertsuite,itwastoinfluenceawholegenerationofmusicians,fromArnoldSchoenbergtoKurtWeillbywayofGeorgesAuricandFrancisPoulenc.
Itwasnotuntiltheearly1930sthatStravinskyconsideredcomposingaworkforviolinandpiano.AsheadmittedinChroniquesdemavie,‘thecombinedsoundofpianoandbowedstrings’hadlittleappealforhim.HisencounterwiththeviolinistSamuelDushkin(1891-1976)wastoinspirehimtowritefortheseforcesand‘toextendthedisseminationof [his] works by means of chamber concerts’. He claimed he had been stimulated to write the Duo concertant,composedbetween27December1931and15 July1932,byreadingabookonPetrarch(Payot:1932)byhis friendCharles-AlbertCingria.ButinaninterviewgivenduringatourwithDushkinin1933,heexplainedthathewasalsoinfluencedbyVirgil’sGeorgics.Whateverthetruthmaybe,hisintentionwastoconceive‘alyricalcomposition,aworkofmusicalversification’(Chroniquesdemavie).Hecontinues:‘ItwasmyenthusiasmforthebucolicpoetsofantiquityandthelearnedartistryoftheirtechniquethatdeterminedthespiritandformofmyDuoconcertant.’TheparadoxicallyentitledCantilène(forthereisnothingtrulysonglikeaboutthismovement)openswithaseriesofarpeggiosontheviolinbeforegivingwaytoadouble-stoppedtextureofpowerful intensity,whilethepiano,aftertremolopassagesreminiscentofcimbalomwriting,unfoldsaninexorablecontinuumofsemiquavers.ÉglogueIbeginswithabagpipe-likeepisodeontheopenstrings,withthepianoimitatingthedrone,andthenmovesintoastaccatosecondpartindoublestops,highlyrhythmicandfeaturingnumerouschangesofmetre,thestyleofwhichrecallstheRagtimefromHistoiredusoldat.InÉglogueII,whichiswritteninthecantabilestyleofAriaIIfromtheViolinConcertoandconstitutesthesuite’sslowmovement,theviolinandpianolinesdoubleeachotherandintertwineinsubtleandmovingfashion.Theimperturbable6/16rhythmoftheGigueistwiceinterrupted,firstbyapassagewhosestyleevokesthePasdedeuxofApollonmusagète,thenbyanotherinwhichathemeemergesonthepianoaccompaniedbytheviolin.TheDuoendswiththeDithyrambe,amovementofprofoundintensitywithornamentationatonceever-presentyetextremelysober.Havingassertedthat‘Lyricismcannotexistwithoutrules,anditisessentialthattheyshouldbestrictones’,StravinskysucceededbrilliantlyindemonstratinghisabilitytoconjuresuchlyricismfromtheveryrigourwithwhichheconceivedthesuccessivemovementsoftheDuoconcertant.
