«The Pleasure-Dome of Kubla Khan»: American Orientalism of Charles Griffes |
Krom Anna E.
The article is devoted to the symphonic poem «The Pleasure-Dome of Kubla Khan» by the American composer Charles Griffes (1884–1920). The opus is viewed through the prism of the musician's oriental hobbies, due to the heightened interest in the East in Europe and the USA in the early twentieth century. The history of the creation of the poem, the features of the work with S. Coleridge’s original source, specific features of the musical language – modes, harmony, texture and orchestration are presented. Under the influence of numerous creative contacts (Eva Gauthier, Ananda Coomaraswamy, E. Bloch, and others), a wide range of reading, studying the works of Russian and French composers who turned to oriental themes, Griffes managed to create a work that fit into the context of current trends in art of that time - impressionism and style of modern.
Keywords: Charles Griffes, The Pleasure-Dome of Kubla Khan, Eva Gauthier, Orientalism, Impressionism, style of Modern, American musical art of the early ХХth century.
