Welcome

At Utah Opera we strive to provide the most compelling, most engaging nights in the theatre imaginable. We are excited to reach for what is creatively possible, and we believe that today’s performance of The Rake’s Progress will provide the proverbial ‘feather in our cap’ of a full season of demonstrating that possibility to you.

our collaboration with Pittsburgh Opera and Portland Opera, the physical production (originally created for San Francisco Opera based on the original production by Glyndebourne Festival Opera and Teatro alla Scala, Milan) features legendary scenic and costume designs by the renowned visual artist David Hockney.

Opera is a synergy of all of the arts, and the very best artistic components come together in this Utah Opera premiere of Russian-American composer Igor Stravinsky’s masterpiece of twentieth-century musical drama, The Rake’s Progress, with its superb poetic libretto by W.H. Auden. The principal artists in our production are highly respected in the operatic field, and our world-class Utah Symphony musicians will be led, for the first time in a Utah Opera production,

by Utah Symphony Music Director Thierry Fischer, who is an expert in the interpretation of the music of Stravinsky. Also, thanks to

The future vision for Utah Opera includes building and creating new productions, continuing to partner with other opera companies, and producing chamber opera to build new audiences looking for unique experiences. Recently, a number of individuals have demonstrated their belief in our artistic potential through their leadership in our Campaign for Perpetual Motion (see pages 50–52). We are grateful to all of these great community leaders who help make Utah a wonderful place for opera!

Verl & Joyce Topham

Lifetime Board

Verl and Joyce Topham have devoted much of their lives and energy to supporting and sustaining the arts and education in Salt Lake City and beyond. Verl Topham had a long and successful career, first as a lawyer and later as the top executive with Utah Power and Light and PacifiCorp. Verl served as the Chairman on the Utah Opera Board and as a Trustee of the Utah Symphony Board before the two companies merged in 2002.

He is currently a member of Utah Symphony | Utah Opera’s Lifetime Board. He has served on numerous other community boards, including Westminster College, Economic Development Corporation of Utah, and Utah Athletic Foundation, and he was Chair of the Board of Trustees of the Utah Shakespeare Festival.

In 2000, Verl was honored by the Salt Lake Chamber as a Giant in Our City, an award that was created to recognize exceptional and distinguished public service and extraordinary professional achievement. Joyce is a multimedia visual artist. She is also a soprano and a longtime lover of opera and other types of music.

Verl and Joyce are both firm believers in a liberal arts education and are delighted that USUO artists share their musicianship with future generations. They support USUO so that audiences throughout the state can enjoy a world-class symphony and opera and that the talent and passion for those art forms will endure.

PRELUDE LECTURES Prelude lectures by principal coach Carol Anderson offer insights before each Utah Opera production.

This introduction includes historical context, musical highlights, and a behind-the-scenes perspective.

Preludes are free with your opera ticket and begin one hour before curtain in the Capitol Room.

The Rake’s Progress

synopsis

By Judy Vander Heide Act I—The scene is set in 18th-century England

in the garden of the country estate of the Trulove family. Anne Trulove and her fiancé, Tom Rakewell, are enjoying the spring air when Anne’s father sends her into the house so that he can counsel Tom about a prospective position as an accountant. Tom, however, has no interest in work, although he does yearn for money. Upon the withdrawal of Trulove, sly Nick Shadow, a Mephistophelean character, approaches Tom and entices him with the welcome news that the young man is the heir to a fortune.

Father Trulove exhorts him to claim his inheritance, so Tom and Nick Shadow depart for London with Tom promising to write to Anne.

In a brothel in the city, Tom is introduced to and seduced into a life of hedonism and debauchery.

Upon encouragement from Shadow, Tom recites a catechism extolling pleasure for Mother Goose, the madam who subsequently beds him and along with Shadow instructs him in the arts of vice.

Having heard nothing from Tom, Anne departs for London to rescue him.

Act II—Tom finds life in London tiresome,

wishes he were happy and feels unworthy of Anne. Shadow appears and encourages Tom to marry Baba the Turk, a bearded lady, for only by this action, Shadow asserts, will Tom be truly free. Anne arrives, but Tom bids her to leave since he is already married. With her incessant babble, Baba is proving to be very irritating, so Tom silences her by cramming a wig on her face, rendering her motionless.

Tom falls asleep and has a strange and realistic dream about a machine that is capable of turning

rocks into bread, an act which could change the world. Tom is delighted when, upon awakening, Shadow brings him the exact gadget he has imagined, so Tom now plans to market the machine—not knowing that it is a fake.

Act III—A few months have passed and Tom’s

ventures, including the stones-to-bread machine, have failed. Everything is up for sale in an auction, including Baba. Anne arrives, having heard of Tom’s ruin. Baba pushes her aside from the pandemonium of the auction, tells her of Tom’s misfortunes and of Tom’s love for her, and bids her to beware of the nefarious Nick Shadow.

Leading Tom to a graveyard, Shadow demands Tom’s soul in payment, ordering Tom to end his life by midnight. Suddenly, the devil reverses himself and offers to wager for Tom’s soul in a game of cards. Tom selects the Queen of Hearts and cries out to Anne, who has followed him.

Shadow realizes he has lost the game, but out of spite, condemns Tom to eternal madness.

Now a resident of Bedlam, Tom, who believes that he is Adonis, is mocked by fellow inmates for his insistence that Venus will visit him. It is Anne who comes, and for a few moments Tom and Anne are once again true lovers. At Tom’s request and to the joy of the inmates, she sings him to sleep before departing with her father.

Awaking to find her gone, Tom calls out in despair and dies of grief.

Epilogue:

The moral of the story is told as it pertains to Tom, Anne, Shadow, Trulove and Baba. All agree that the devil will find work for idle hands.

The Rake’s Progress

composer & librettist

Born in Russia in 1882, Igor Fyodorovich Stravinsky was mentored by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov and worked as a composer first in Russia, then in Switzerland and France. After the Russian Revolution, it became impossible for him to return to Russia, and in 1920, he settled in France, where he began to re-examine the music of Mozart and Bach and compose in what many scholars have termed a “Neo-Classical” style. When World War II broke out in 1939, Stravinsky moved to the US, where he taught for a year at Harvard. Shortly after the war ended, Stravinsky began to compose The Rake’s Progress. He was nearly 70 when The Rake’s I chose Wystan Auden as librettist for my opera "The Rake's Progress" because of his special gift Progress premiered in 1951. Stravinsky was a major influence on 20th-century music for versification . . . I simply gave all priority to verse, hoping that we could evolve the theatrical and many consider him the greatest of the century’s composers. form together and that it would inspire Wystan to dramatic poetry. I think he was inspired, and in any case he inspired me . . . I wonder whether any poet since the Elizabethans has made a composer such a beautiful gift . . .

Igor Stravinsky

Wystan Hugh Auden (1907–1973), best known as W. H. Auden, is considered by many to be the greatest English poet of the 20th century. He was born in York, England and studied at Oxford, majoring first in biology, and then switching to English. After graduation, Auden worked as a schoolmaster and as a freelance reviewer and essayist.

In 1937 he was awarded the King’s Gold Medal for Poetry. As a librettist, Auden is frequently compared to the great Hugo von Hofmannsthal. His libretto for The Rake’s Progress continues to be admired for its beauty, wit, and profundity. Auden is widely considered the 20th century’s finest librettist.

W. H. Auden brought Chester Kallman in as co-librettist for The Rake’s Progress. Kallman (1921–1975) was an American poet, librettist, and translator whom Auden had met shortly after his arrival in New York in 1939. Kallman published three collections of poems, Storm at Castelfranco (1956), Absent and Present (1963), and The Sense of Occasion (1971). He wrote the libretto for an opera by Mexican composer Carlos Chávez and translated libretti for a number of operas, among them Bluebeard’s Castle by Béla Bartók and Falstaff by Arrigo Boito. He is best known for being Auden’s lover and lifelong companion, and for his collaborations with Auden on opera libretti and translations.

The Rake’s Progress

director’s notes

I had the great pleasure to assist John Cox on the San Francisco Opera’s 2000 revival of his and David Hockney’s now historic production of The Rake’s Progress. Their take on Stravinsky’s masterpiece was at that time in its 25th year of consistent revival. This Utah Opera production inaugurates its 40th! What is so striking about their collaboration—David Hockney’s first foray into the realm of opera—is that the visual world they manage to create successfully frames the story’s multi-layered journey from bucolic ideal through the depths of hell, providing a setting that helps enhance and clarify the neo-classical contortions of Stravinsky’s score.

Part of the key to their success is in David Hockney’s return to the original engravings of William Hogarth that were Stravinsky’s inspiration for the opera’s creation. Hockney had already created a series of etchings inspired by Hogarth in 1963, under a similar title, A Rake’s Progress. That series mirrors the original Hogarth scenes, but in Hockney’s contemporary, abstract vernacular. Hockney’s design for the opera from 1975, on the other hand, references the Hogarth quite directly, follows a clear narrative, incorporates versions of Hogarth’s period costumes, and creates a mostly earthly setting. And yet the place Hockney chooses to locate the opera is clearly artificial. Color is used sparingly, and with specific intent over the course of nine scenes. Instead of costuming the singers naturalistically within this false landscape,

34

he chooses to make them part of the drawing as well. Cox created a staging that replied to this quality of the design by emphasizing clear, sharp characters, a specificity of gesture, and visually static, yet emotionally vibrant stage pictures. In this way Hockney’s design is inhabited by a series of living pictures, and Stravinsky’s music is allowed to unfold within a carefully organized visual landscape.

The result for the audience is that the parable nature of Auden and Kallman’s libretto is made all the more clear. The pastoral, idyllic first scene is invaded by Tom’s Shadow – the mysterious, worldly side of his nature which leads him, the Rakewell, away from Anne, his Truelove. Tom’s journey with his Shadow leads him to the garish bed of Mother Goose’s mystical brothel, to London where Tom’s fame is established then subsumed by the androgynous Baba the Turk. All color is drained from the stage as Tom, having lost track of his True-self, loses everything, faces death and damnation, and ends up in the madhouse of his own sullied mind. The stylized nature of the design and staging emphasizes, as theater always has, that we too inhabit a landscape of our own construction (‘all men are mad, all they say or do is theatre’), and strengthens the libretto’s cautionary advice not to underestimate the danger of identification with Shadow.

Roy Rallo is the stage director for this production of The Rake’s Progress.

The Rake’s Progress

A Measure…

1/3

A Measure of Present Justice

By Jeff Counts Labels

Stravinsky would loathe the classifications we apply to his various “style periods” and likely might argue that, as consumers of his and other artists’ work, we do so at our own experiential peril. We know this about him thanks to his long, productive and highly public life, during which he enjoyed the rare opportunity of witnessing (and even responding to) the academic segmentation of his output. In a fantastic article for English National Opera’s series of informative guides (No. 43, 1991), author Brian Trowell recounted an interview Stravinsky gave to Houston Post writer Hubert Roussel. Roussel apparently asked the composer about “neoclassicism” and Stravinsky immediately bristled, calling the term a “label that means nothing whatever” and sarcastically offering a fitting anatomical location for such words. Roussel had clearly touched a nerve.

The idea that Stravinsky was either the leader of or (worse) merely a member of a defined compositional movement akin to Schoenberg’s or Wagner’s or Debussy’s was something the composer himself did not find amusing.

But still…

Despite his objections, neo-classicism was such a movement and Stravinsky was a confident and effective practitioner of it. The term itself, in this context, should not be confused with the Age of Enlightenment fascination with antiquity in architecture and the visual arts.

From today’s musical/historical perspective, it describes a trend that began in the 1920s as a reaction to the perceived excess of late Romantic expression when composers like Stravinsky, Prokofiev, Hindemith and others 36

sought inspiration in the formal and stylistic conventions of the 17th and 18th centuries.

Haydn and Mozart became rich sources of raw material for the systematic stripping-down of the large orchestrations and structural densities of the day (Bach too was a frequent font of imitative solace, which begs the question of whether “neo-baroque” is not more often the appropriate moniker), and the neo-classicists soon perfected the pastiche techniques that earned them both praise and scorn.

The two sides of that critical coin would often exist side by side in the same performance reviews for Stravinsky, such was the confusion over his dedication to making the old new again.

Regardless of his source material, or maybe because of it, he was occasionally chastised for not rendering his Mozartian evocations accurately enough, as if by drawing upon the wisdom of a past master, Stravinsky had turned from creator to translator and had therefore abandoned the abstract artistic standard for a clinically literal one. He seemed fully aware of the question at hand when he wrote in Themes and Episodes, “Can a composer re-use the past and at the same time move in a forward direction?”

To the Music

The answer to that question was “yes,” according to Stravinsky, but he felt disinclined to defend the point too strenuously. Since he didn’t hold with the notion of arbitrary (to him, anyhow) categories and their preconceptions, he was right not to. In truth, he never once set out to write “neo-classical” music, only music, so the fuss over expectations had to have been bewildering and frustrating for him.

UTAH OPERA THE RAKE’S PROGRESS 2015

The Rake’s Progress

A Measure…

The above quoted question and its answer were part of a program note Stravinsky wrote for The Rake’s Progress 13 years after its 1951 premiere.

He said he was inspired by the Hogarth lithographs to create a “period” piece, one that would “assume the conventions of the period as well.” The conventions Stravinsky was referring to were those of an 18th century “number” opera, which he described as “one in which the dramatic progress depends on the succession of separate pieces—recitatives and arias, duets, trios, choruses, instrumental interludes.” He admitted that he had no intention of reforming or transforming the long-standing ideals, but rather hoped to revive them in a progressive setting. Ever self-aware, Stravinsky further conceded, “…for a long time The Rake seemed to have been created for no other purpose than

2/3

journalistic debates concerning…the validity of the approach. If the opera contains imitations, however—especially of Mozart, as has been said—I will gladly allow the charge if I may thereby release people from the argument and bring them to the music.”

Let’s go there ourselves for a moment, to the music. If we consent to the notion that Stravinsky’s “neo-classical” period is a real thing for scholars and writers to parse (sorry, Maestro), then we must also accept that The Rake’s Progress was the end of it. There are no convenient diary entries that exclaim the transition (like maybe “The Rake is finished and so is my neo-classical phase. On to serialism!”), but he did clearly move into other, more recognizably “modern” compositional areas

The Rake’s Progress

A Measure…

3/3

after this opera. Certainly, Stravinsky did indeed “re-use the past” for The Rake’s Progress in a way that now feels summative, like a final, eloquent statement of principle. On the subject of influences, he referred only to Gluck specifically but we do know that he also made a study of the Mozart/da Ponte collaborations (Figaro, Giovanni and Così) and was particularly fond of the continuous narrative design in Verdi’s Falstaff. This might lead one to see exactly what he himself identified as a common observation after the premiere, that The Rake was not much more than a collection of “imitations.” The imitations are there, sure, and as we have seen, Stravinsky permits them (Mozart, at least) in his program note, but to judge this music simply by recounting a few of its ingredients is to miss the genius of it entirely.

Progress, so if his Mozartian moments weren’t sufficiently Mozartian for some commentators, it is because they were also intentionally Stravinskian. The recitatives, for instance, are especially surprising for their use of the harpsichord (expected) in the composer’s signature harmonic and rhythmic language (decidedly not expected). Truly in those instances are the innovations of the previous centuries magically reborn in his.

Stravinsky, in his elaborate use of established operatic conventions, succeeded in his wish to make the familiar newly so. His own personal conventions as a composer had themselves become canon by the time he wrote The Rake’s

“…in any case,” Stravinsky continued in 1964, “I am not concerned with the future of my opera.

I only ask for it a measure of present justice.” No mention of the past there, so let’s take our leave of it too and enjoy The Rake’s Progress for what it is— wonderful dramatic music and a classic in its own right—and allow the debates to sort themselves.

The Hogarth Etchings

By Dr. Carol Anderson The works of a 17th-century visual artist are surprisingly of central importance to Igor Stravinsky’s twentieth-century operatic masterpiece The Rake’s Progress. Painter, printmaker, and cartoonist William Hogarth (1697–1764) was the leading artistic figure of British art in the mid-eighteenth century and a proponent of the Rococo style in Britain.

Though no self-respecting British artist would ever openly admit the worth of French Rococo art, thanks to heavy anti-French political sentiment, Hogarth’s 1753 treatise, The Analysis of Beauty, praised the curving lines and ornate detail of Rococo painting as the standard of artistic excellence. This philosophy was in direct contrast to the ideals of earlier generations of artists, who emphasized classical Greek and Roman elements of straight lines and elegant geometrical proportions. Hogarth’s main legacies were in the areas of series art (early cartoons) and copyright law.

Born in London in 1697 to Richard Hogarth, a teacher and writer of limited means, and Anne Gibbons, Hogarth’s childhood was a rough and poverty-stricken one. His father spent several years in debtor’s prison, owing money from an unsuccessful commercial venture, a Latin-speaking coffeehouse. To help support his struggling family, young William began an apprenticeship with the London engraver Ellis Gamble in 1713. There he learned the craft of engraving, particularly the engraving of trade cards, an eighteenth-century form of business advertising.

By 1720 he was a fully-trained engraver with his own thriving engraving business. Hogarth also

expanded his artistic training to include drawing and painting, studying at Sir James Thornhill’s art academy in St. Martin’s Lane, Covent Garden. In 1729 he further formalized his association with Thornhill by marrying his mentor’s daughter Jane. The marriage was a long and happy one, though it produced no offspring. Still, Jane and William advocated for children throughout their life, fostering orphaned children and supporting the Foundling Hospital in London.

Portraiture was a large part of Hogarth’s output throughout his career, but particularly during the 1720s and early 1730s. Reflecting the rise of the Protestant middle class and merchant class after Cromwell’s Glorious Revolution of 1688, Hogarth’s subjects often came from the middle class or even lower class rather than the aristocracy. One of Hogarth’s most famous (and most sensational) portraits of this period was a sketch of the condemned murderer Sarah Malcolm, made when he visited her in prison just three days before her hanging.

Notwithstanding the quality and popularity of his portraiture, Hogarth’s place in art (and consequently, operatic) history was secured through his satirical painting and “moralizing art,” or art that communicates strong moral commentary. Subjects of his satire range from political and economic corruption to the theatrical and musical tastes of the day.

Each of his “Modern Moral Subjects” consists of a series of paintings which tell a story of corruption, typically ending with tragic demise, punishment, or some other type of degradation.

Hogarth’s series art was the predecessor to

The Rake’s Progress

The Hogarth Etchings

the modern comic strip or storyboard and influenced much of the satirical and political cartoonists of following centuries. Both the satirical and moralizing works were full of details and allegorical symbols that would speak to Hogarth’s audience, many of whom were staunch and upright Protestants.

An early moralizing series was A Harlot’s Progress, created in 1731, which depicted the progressive corruption and subsequent death of an innocent country maiden. The huge success of this series led to a follow-up entitled A Rake’s Progress. Many contemporary (and competitive) engravers created their own copies of these works and were profiting from pirated versions of Hogarth’s work. An astute businessman as well as a fine artist, Hogarth began to lobby in Parliament for an artist’s right to control his own work. In 1735 the Engraver’s Act, also known as “Hogarth’s Act,” was passed, the first example of copyright law. After assuring ownership of his intellectual property, he sold direct subscription of these and other morality series to interested parties at a reasonable rate. He enjoyed a comfortable income throughout his life through this innovative practice in combination with his commissions from portrait paintings.

note: A “rake,” short for “rakehell,” was a term popular in Georgian England for a morally bankrupt man. The typical rakish character, often found in Restoration comedies, inherits a fortune that he squanders on profligate living, particularly womanizing. Some rakes are reformed through the love of a good woman, while others would continue their licentious behaviors unrepentant.

Hogarth’s first painting in the series depicts our anti-hero, Tom Rakewell, coming into his inheritance. We see him measured for new clothing at the same time he is rejecting his pregnant fiancée, Sarah, who is holding his ring.

Her mother stands behind her, holding the love letters Tom has sent Sarah.

For A Rake’s Progress, Hogarth envisioned the tale of his anti-hero in eight vignettes. A side

In the next painting, Tom is shown at his levée in London, surrounded by sycophants and acquaintances. The levée was a morning “dressing” ceremony, where a nobleman would interact with various hangers-on while being readied by his servants for the day’s events. In the third scene, Tom’s debased behavior reaches a low point, as he participates in a drunken orgy at the Rose Tavern.

Paintings 4, 5 and 6 depict Tom’s desperate attempts to salvage his lifestyle. Number four shows Sarah, now employed as a milliner, saving Tom from debt collectors as he travels in a sedan chair. In the fifth scene, he marries an aged and ugly but wealthy woman, while Sarah looks on, with Tom and Sarah’s illegitimate child crawling at the feet of the nuptial couple.

Next we see Tom, with his wig lying on the floor next to him, pleading for divine assistance, having lost his second fortune at the gambling tables.

The seventh scene finds our “hero” thrown in debtor’s prison. His furious wife harangues him, while the ever-faithful Sarah swoons nearby.

Finally, Tom loses his mind completely, and ends his days in the Bethlem Royal Hospital for the mentally ill, commonly known as Bedlam.

Sarah cradles his mindless body and weeps for his fate, but Tom does not recognize her.

UTAH OPERA THE RAKE’S PROGRESS 2015

William Hogarth enjoyed a prosperous and successful career through the latter decades of his life. His gifts of paintings to the Foundling Hospital, where he served on the board of governors, and to St. Bartholomew’s Hospital were some of the first examples of art to be exhibited as part of a public building, rather than in a private collection. He replaced his brother-in-law John Thornhill as Serjeant Painter to the British monarchy in 1857 and held this prestigious appointment until his death in 1864.

Igor Stravinsky viewed a set of Rake’s Progress engravings in March of 1947 while they were on exhibit at the Art Institute of Chicago.

For a number of years Stravinsky had been toying with the idea of an opera in English, the language of his adopted country. Stravinsky at this time was in the height of his neo-classical period, where he was channeling Baroque and Classical musical aesthetics through the lens of modern tonal expansion. It’s likely that the time period so colorfully depicted in the engravings appealed to Stravinsky’s compositional focus.

His neighbor in Los Angeles, author Aldous Huxley, suggested the poet Wystan Hugh Auden, who proved adept at creating the stylized poetic forms Stravinsky envisioned to complement his pseudo-classical musical style. As they worked through the scenario 45

of the opera, they reordered Hogarth’s work symmetrically (1, 3, 2, 4, 5, 7, 6, 8) and altered a few details, particularly in episodes 4 and 6. This highly successful collaboration, full of respect, admiration, and collegiality, led to one of the most important operas of the 20th century.

We launched these plans with our unprecedented tour to Southern Utah last August, providing a once-in-a-lifetime musical experience to visitors and citizens of those communities against the backdrop of Utah’s Mighty 5® National Parks. If you weren’t able to join us on this historic tour, we hope you observed with pride the national attention it received in the press and classical music world.

The Campaign began with a remarkable $5 million lead gift from the George S. and Dolores Doré Eccles Foundation, whose tradition of support totaling more than $32 million spans three decades. This lead gift was made in addition to a $1 million gift from the Foundation to our Leadership Campaign, which during 2011 and 2012 prepared a solid foundation for the public fundraising effort. More than 35 individuals, corporations, and foundations contributed to the Leadership Campaign, including an extraordinary $4.6 million capstone gift from O.C. Tanner Company. O.C. Tanner recently committed an additional $500,000 to our Anniversary season efforts, bringing their total compaign giving to $5.1 million.
