The chorus against Chaliapin: an episode
from the life of the great artist in the age of revolution |
Petr N. Gordeev
The article is devoted to the confl ict between F.I. Chaliapin and the chorus of the Mariinsky theatre in March 1917. The hostile
relations between the great artist and the chorus troupe were formed before the revolution. The cause of the confl ict was the
refusal of the chorists to perform with Chaliapin the last version of the national anthem composed by him. In a situation of the
actual «power vacuum» in the State theatres in March 1917 they failed to convince the chorus. In the end, Chaliapin managed
to perform his work on the stage of the Mariinsky theatre, taking part in a concert of the Preobrazhensky regiment. These events
are one of the example of a characteristic of the revolutionary era confrontation between a bright personality and «the team», the
value of which grew in 1917.
Keywords: F.I. Chaliapin, the chorists, the chorus of Mariinsky theatre, the Mariinsky theatre, the 1917 revolution in Russia.
