1955121<p>Gershwin`s Porgy and Bess in USSR!<br />Unique program of the first production in Russia famous American opera. December 1955 - January 1956 !<br /><br />Porgy and Bess is an opera by George Gershwin. First staged in 1935 the opera was not very successful at first but from the 1950s it began to gain wide popularity in the United States and then throughout the world. The production of the opera was largely carried out by natives or children of emigrants from Russia Gershwins Mamulyan Smollens Sudeikin.<br />The first ever trip of an American theater troupe to Russia - the crowning achievement of the world tour "Porgy and Bess" - was the fruit of long confusing and so to the end and not clarified negotiations between the USSR and the Euryman Opera company represented by the producers of the Gershwin Opera Brin and Davis .<br />The tour of the American opera in 1955-1956 is an amazing example of a turn in politics the first sign of the onset of a new period in the political and cultural life of the USSR - the Soviet "thaw" in 1956-1960.<br />Two rare ephemeras in good condition.</p> paperback

According to Ohl best their code word for love allowed them to be discreet.This deluxe edition of the piano-vocal score according to Fuld no orchestral score has ever been published was published in 1935 the year of Porgy and Bess premiere almost simultaneously with the first edition and is boldly signed on the limitation page at the rear by George and Ira Gershwin and the other principal creators of Porgy and Bess: librettist DuBose Heyward and director Rouben Mamoulian. Fuld 539. The recipient Kay Swift met Gershwin in 1925. A highly educated beauty of prominent social position she was not yet known as a songwriter her first big hit would be in 1929 with ""Can't We Be Friends"". ""If one measures by the dedication of his Song-Book to her his generous gifts of paintings manuscripts and other keepsakes that betokened affection plus the many hours he spent with her Gershwin obviously had a special place in his heart for Kay Swift With Kay Gershwin probably came as close to settling down with one woman as he ever did"" Schwarz 190. Swift was extensively involved with the composition of Porgy and Bess almost from the beginning: Swift was Gershwin's guest at the premiere of the play version by Heyward's wife. When composing the operamuch of which occurred at a cottage on Swift's country estateSwift was often in her words Gershwin's ""soundboard"" for new ideas. ""'He'd call me and tell me to rush over to play the orchestra part of a song. He couldn't sing. Neither could Ira. But we'd all sing Ira's or DuBose Heyward's lyrics sounding like a chorus of crows Each day as the work grew a few of usBill Daly his close friend and favorite conductor and myself Ira of course and DuBose Heyward who wrote the libretto as well as some of the lyrics were probably present much of the time. It was thrilling to hear the themes develop the recitatives build into such an inevitable part of the score that they flowed as naturally as spoken words would. The whole sparkled with a fantastic quality of imagination She also had an even more direct part in the opera's development. In addition to listening singing and playing the work in progress Swift sometimes notated portions of pieces for Gershwin evidently to expedite his later work on the compositions. He believed she wrote faster and more neatly than she could."" Extensive portions of the original manuscript now in the Gershwin collection at the Library of Congress are in Swift's hand demonstrating ""her role as an assistant to the composer and signify the trust he must have placed in her and her notational and musical abilities"" Ohl 95-96. During actual production Swift attended most rehearsals and was present at many of the casting decisions. After the preview run in Boston it was clear that the four-hour opera was too long so ""Gershwin Mamoulian composer Alexander Steinert and Kay Swift walked the Boston Common in the early hours of the morning deciding which portions to cut""; one month later at the premiere in New York ""Swift was seated between George and Ira"". Later Swift would deliver lectures throughout the country as part of the promotion of Porgy and Bess. ""Ira recalled that she had memorized the entire 559-page score and would be illustrating songs from it at the piano"" Ohl 97-98. ""After her yeoman's effort during Porgy and Bess he presented her with a leather-bound autographed score the present copy that reads simply 'Tosic Kay. Best. George.' 'Best' their code word for 'love' allowed them to be discreet"" Ohl 115. Interior fine spine somewhat toned light rubbing to spine ends. A near-fine copy with an extraordinary association. hardcover

Ira Gershwin and Yip Harburg "shared a special interest in a long line of light satirical poetry from Renaissance parodists and W.S. Gilbert to the latest newspaper verse of Franklin P. Adams Bert Taylor and the young Dorothy Parker. Carolyn Wells's anthology of society verse in particular became an indispensable resource as the two boys experimented with such classic forms as the ballad limerick ode rondeau and triolet. In time these two friends . would help usher in the so-called golden age of American popular song by applying the traditions of light verse to modern lyric writing" Pollock George Gershwin p. 15. <br/><br/> Scribner's hardcover books
