Biography · Biographie Music and Nothing but Music… The development and career of Mikis Theodorakis Mikis Theodorakis is possibly the one contemporary composer in the world with an audience larger and more wide-ranging than anyone else, a unique phenomenon in the musical life of our time. His popularity is mainly due to two factors, his extraordinary talent for melody and the sheer extent of his musical output. His oeuvre comprises not only of around 1000 songs but of also more than 100 major compositions including chamber, ballet, theatre and film music as well as symphonies, concerti and operas which have been performed by internationally renowned conductors such as Thomas Beecham, Dimitris Chorafas, Charles Dutoit, Herbert Kegel, Dimitri Kitajenko, Zubin Mehta. All these works continue to hold their place within international concert repertoire to this day. Dispite the distinct nationalistic Greek element in his music, characterized by Byantine, demotic and Cretan infludnese, Theodorakis is an extremely cosmopolitan, liberal and outward looking artist both in his music and thinking. Among his favoured writers are international authors such as Federico García Lorca, Brendan Behan, Pablo Neruda and Martin Walser. His diverse oeuvre also comprises of numerous film scores (Honeymoon by Michael Powell, Phaedra by Jules Dassin, Five Miles To Midnight by Anatole Litvak, Zorbas the Greek by Michalis Cacojannis, Z by Costa Gavras, and Serpico by Sidney Lumet) and his songs, which over the past 40 years have been have been sung by performers like Agnes Baltsa, the Beatles, Dalida, Maria Farantouri, Mary Hopkin, Liesbeth List, Maria del Mar Bonet, Marino Marini,

Milva, Mouloudji, Georges Moustaki, Nana Mouskouri, Edith Piaf, and Herman van Veen. Theodorakis‘ discography extends to around about 300 titles many of which contain solely recordings of his own songs and works. Youtube currently holds over 2,400 video featureing Theodorakis’ music and a Google search for his name yields over 400,000 hits. How did this tremendous popularity of an originally classical composer come about?

Theodorakis 1937

Apprenticeship and rise of a composer (1943-1959) From the early 1940s, all the energies and aspirations of the then fifteen-year-old Mikis Theodorakis were directed toward one goal: to become a composer. Even the experience of war (1941-1944), civil war (1944-1949), imprisonment and exile (repeatedly between 1946 and 1949) and forced recruitment in the early 1950s did not discourage him from his plans. Theodo-


rakis‘ life is that of a man possessed by music who, notwithstanding the circumstances, has always read and composed music. He completed his composition studies with Filoktitis Ikonomidis in Athens and graduated with distinction. His symphonic and chamber music works have been performed regularly in Greece since the early 1950s and also abroad from 1953. In 1954 he received a scholarship for additional studies at the Paris Conservatoire with Olivier Messiaen (composition) and Eugène Bigot (conducting) which he completed in 1958. Almost all the chamber and symphonic works written between 1948 and 1960 (including the ballet Greek Carnival, Symphony No. 1 and the First Piano Concerto Helicon) were performed by the National Orchestra of Athens as well as by other major orchestras in Paris, London, Strasbourg and Rome. In 1957 an international jury in Moscow headed by Dmitri Shostakovitch and Hanns Eisler awarded him the First Composition Prize ahead of 240 other composers for his Suite No. 1. In 1958 the French newspaper ‘Le Figaro’ hailed Theodorakis as the ‘new Stravinsky’, and Benjamin Britten refered to him in several interviews as one of the most talented new composers of Europe. In 1959, on Darius Milhaud’s recomendation, Theodorakis received the Copley Prize as Best European Composer of the Year. His ballet music finally made the international breakthrough with Les Amants de Teruel (1958) staring Ludmilla Tcherina at the Theatre Sarah Bernhardt, Paris directed by Raymond Rouleau and also with the undisputed success of Antigone (1959) at Covent Garden, London, with choreography by John Cranko which was staged more than 100 times and became part of the repertoire of the Stuttgart Ballet in 1961. The world of folk song (1960-1979) In 1960 Theodorakis apeard to suddenly give up his career as a symphonic composer, moved from Paris to Athens and, for next twenty years, occupied himself exclusively with what he called ‘contemporary folk song’. For Theodorakis, this was at the same time a declaration of

his origins: Greece, Crete, the Hellenistic Asia Minor. During this period, he disowned his works written before 1960 which earned him his reputation as a rising star in the realm of classical music, and developed the ‚aesthetics of dialogue‘ which were based on the amalgamation of poetry, song and social commitment. This new aesthetic manifested itself artistically in the composition of numerous songs and large-scale oratorios which developed such momentum that it triggered a cultural revolution in Greece in the early 1960s. In 1967, after the military putsch, Theodorakis‘ music was banned. He was able to put up resistance in illegality for four months, but was then arrested, tortured and imprisoned. Until his deportation to Paris in 1970, the composer again had to endure house arrest, exile and second prison sentence. Shortly after his release, he set out on a worldwide tour with his music to protest against the military dictatorship which only ended with the fall of the junta in 1974. Theodorakis returned to Athens immediately and tried, although without success, to continue the cultural movement of the years before 1967. Return to symphonic music, discovery of the opera (from 1980) In 1980 Theodorakis returned to his self-chosen exile in Paris after he again had to live with artistic and political disillusions during and after the time of the junta. This time he returned to symphonic composition, picking up his compositional thread from the period before 1960. He revised a number of his earlier works and wrote several symphonies, choral works and oratorios as well as the operas The Metamorphoses of Dionysos (1984-1986), Medea (1988/90), Electra (1992-93), Antigone (1994-1996), and Lysistrata (2000-01). Within these ‘lyric tragedies’ as the composer calls them, he combined a Greek sound world referring to folksong-like melodies with the Western European music tradition that formed a genre that reflects the composer’s personality, namely that of the melodist and symphonic composer.

Immer wieder Musik ... Zum kompositorischen Werdegang von Mikis Theodorakis

Theodorakis at the BBC Studios London, 1958 Until 1998, when he stopped conducting for health reasons, Theodorakis conducted concerts of his songs, oratorios and symphonic works all over the world. He recorded his operas and many other works himself and in recent years has occupied himself with the publication of his complete oeuvre. Despite overcoming massive political barriers, Theodorakis has managed to create an unparalleled oeuvre in the field of both folk and symphonic music, which delights, inspires and motivates millions of people throughout the world. His life and work are, without a doubt, unrivalled in the history of culture and music of our time. Asteris Koutoulas Translation: Esther Dubielzig

Mikis Theodorakis dürfte der zeitgenössische Komponist sein, der über das weltweit größte und breit gefächertste Publikum verfügt: ein einzigartiges Phänomen im Musikleben unserer Zeit. Zwei wesentliche Gründe für seine Popularität sind seine außergewöhnliche melodische Begabung und die erstaunliche Bandbreite seines Schaffens. Sein Werk umfasst neben etwa 1.000 Liedern über 100 größere Kompositionen, darunter Kammer-, Ballett-, Theater- und Filmmusik sowie Sinfonien und Opern, die von so berühmten Dirigenten wie Thomas Beecham, Dimitris Chorafas, Charles Dutoit, Herbert Kegel, Dimitri Kitajenko, Zubin Mehta aufgeführt wurden und nach wie vor ihren Platz im Konzertleben haben. Theodorakis offenbart sich in seinem Schaffen wie in seinem Denken als äußerst kosmopolitischer Künstler – trotz des ausgeprägt „griechischen“ Elements in seiner Musik, die von byzantinischen, demotischen und kretischen Einflüssen geprägt ist. Unter den von ihm favorisierten Textdichter finden sich internationale Autoren wie Federico García Lorca, Brendan Behan, Pablo Neruda, Martin Walser und viele andere. Zu seinem vielschichtigen Œuvre gehören die Musiken zu zahlreichen Filmen (darunter Honeymoon von Michael Powell, Phädra von Jules Dassin, Five Miles To Midnight von Anatole Litvak, Zorbas von Michalis Cacojannis, Z von Costa Gavras und Serpico von Sidney Lumet). Einzigartige Bedeutung kommt natürlich seinen Liedern zu, die in den letzten vierzig Jahren von zahlreichen und sehr unterschiedlichen Interpreten gesungen worden sind; genannt seien hier Agnes Baltsa, die Beatles, Dalida, Maria Farantouri, Mary Hopkin, Liesbeth List, Maria del Mar Bonet, Marino Marini, Milva, Mouloudji, Georges Moustaki, Nana Mouskouri, Edith Piaf und Herman van Veen. Theodorakis’ Diskographie umfasst etwa 300 Platten- bzw. CD-Veröffentlichungen, die aus-


schließlich seinen eigenen Liedern und Werken gewidmet sind. In Youtube kursieren derzeit über 2.400 Videos mit seiner Musik, die Google-Suche zu seinem Namen ergibt über 400.000 Einträge. Wie kam es dazu, dass Theodorakis, ursprünglich ein klassischer Komponist, eine so einzigartige Popularität erlangen konnte? Lehrjahre und Aufstieg eines Komponisten (1943-1959) Ab Anfang der 40er Jahre war das Streben des damals erst fünfzehnjährigen Mikis Theodorakis auf ein einziges Ziel hin ausgerichtet: Komponist zu werden. Selbst die Erfahrung von Krieg (1941 bis 1944), Bürgerkrieg (1944 bis 1949), Gefängnis und Verbannung (wiederholt zwischen 1946 und 1949) und die Zwangsrekrutierung zu Beginn der 50er Jahre brachten ihn nicht von diesem Vorhaben ab. Theodorakis’ Biografie ist die eines Musikbesessenen, der – gleich unter welchen Umständen – immerzu Musik las und komponierte. Sein Kompositions-studium in Athen bei Filoktitis Ikonomidis schloss er mit Auszeichnung ab; seine sinfonischen und kammermusikalischen Werke wurden seit Anfang der 50er Jahre regelmäßig

in Griechenland und ab 1953 auch im Ausland aufgeführt. Im Jahr 1954 erhielt er ein Stipendium für ein Zusatzstudium am Pariser Konservatorium bei Olivier Messiaen (Komposition) und Eugene Bigot (Dirigat), das er ebenfalls sehr erfolgreich beendete (1958). Fast alle zwischen 1948 und 1960 entstandenen kammermusikalischen und sinfonischen Werke (darunter das Ballett Griechischer Karneval, die erste Sinfonie und das erste Klavierkonzert Helikon) wurden vom Staatlichen Orchester Athen sowie von anderen großen Orchestern in Paris, London, Straßburg und Rom aufgeführt. Im Jahr 1957 verlieh ihm eine internationale Jury unter Leitung von Dmitri Schostakowitsch und Hanns Eisler in Moskau den Ersten Preis für Komposition für seine 1. Suite; 240 Komponisten aus aller Welt hatten bei diesem Wettbewerb ihre Werke eingereicht. 1958 begrüßte „Le Figaro“ Theodorakis als den „neuen Strawinsky“, und Benjamin Britten bezeichnete ihn in mehreren Interviews als einen der talentiertesten neuen Komponisten Europas. Im Jahr 1959 wurde Theodorakis auf einen Vorschlag von Darius Milhaud hin mit dem Copley-Prize als bester europäischer Komponist des Jahres geehrt. Der internationale Durchbruch gelang ihm

schließlich mit seiner Musik zum Ballett Les Amants de Teruel (1958, Theater Sarah Bernhardt Paris, Regie: Raymond Rouleau, Hauptrolle: Ludmilla Tscherina) sowie mit dem großen Erfolg des Balletts Antigone (1959, Covent Garden London, Choreographie: John Cranko, Bühnenbild: Rufino Tamayo, Hauptrollen: Svetlana Beriosova, Donald Macleray, Leslie Edwards, Rudolf Nurejew), das über 100 Aufführungen erlebte und 1961 auch vom Stuttgarter Ballett ins Repertoire aufgenommen wurde.

Die Welt des Volkslieds (1960-1979) 1960 brach Theodorakis scheinbar plötzlich seine Karriere als sinfonischer Komponist ab, zog von Paris nach Athen und beschäftigte sich zwanzig Jahre lang ausschließlich mit dem, was er „zeitgenössisches Volkslied“ nannte. Für Theodorakis war dies zugleich ein Bekenntnis zu seiner Herkunft: Griechenland, Kreta und das hellenistische Kleinasien. Sein Werk der Jahrzehnte bis 1960, das ihm den Nimbus eines aufsteigenden Shootingstars im Reich der klassischen Musik eingebracht hatte, negierte er in dieser Zeit und entwickelte eine „Ästhetik des Dialogs“, die auf der Verschmelzung von Dichtung, Lied und sozialem Engagement beruhte. Dieses ästhetische Konzept schlug sich in der Komposition vieler Lieder und großer Oratorien nieder und entwickelte eine solche Durchschlagskraft, dass dadurch in Griechenland Anfang der 60er Jahre eine kulturelle Revolution ausgelöst wurde. 1967, nach dem Militärputsch, wurde das Spielen und Hören der Musik von Theodorakis per Gesetz verboten. Er selbst konnte vier Monate in der Illegalität Widerstand leisten, wurde dann jedoch verhaftet, gefoltert und eingesperrt. Bis zu seiner Abschiebung 1970 nach Paris musste der Komponist erneut Hausarrest, Verbannung und einen weiteren Gefängnisaufenthalt überstehen. Kaum wieder in Freiheit, begann er eine weltweite Tournee mit seiner Musik als Ausdruck seines Protests gegen die Militärdiktatur, die erst 1974 mit dem Fall der Junta zu Ende ging.

10

Theodorakis kehrte sofort nach Athen zurück und versuchte – allerdings ohne Erfolg –, an die kulturelle Bewegung der Jahre vor 1967 anzuknüpfen.

Rückkehr zur Sinfonik, Entdeckung der Oper (ab 1980) 1980 ging Theodorakis zurück ins „selbst gewählte Exil“ nach Paris, nachdem er während und nach der Zeit der Junta künstlerische und politische Desillusionen hatte erfahren müssen. Er wandte sich abermals dem sinfonischen Schaffen zu, nahm den kompositorischen Faden aus der Zeit vor 1960 wieder auf, bearbeitete eine Reihe seiner früheren Werke neu und schuf mehrere Sinfonien, Chorwerke und Oratorien sowie die Opern Die Metamorphosen des Dionysos (1984 bis 1986), Medea (1988/90), Elektra (1992/93), Antigone (1994 bis 1996) und Lysistrata (2000/01). In ihnen strebt er eine Verbindung zwischen dem charakteristisch griechischen Klang und volksliedhafter Melodik mit der westeuropäischen Musiktradition an. Mit der „lyrischen Tragödie“, wie er seine Opern nennt, scheint Theodorakis das Genre gefunden zu haben, das seiner kompositorischen Mentalität – der des Melodikers und Sinfonikers – am nächsten kommt. Bis er 1998 aus gesundheitlichen Gründen seine Dirigiertätigkeit einstellen musste, gab Theodorakis weltweit Konzerte mit seinen Liedern, Oratorien und sinfonischen Werken. Er nahm seine Opern und viele andere Werke selbst auf und beschäftigt sich in den letzten Jahren mit der Edition seines Gesamtschaffens. Es gelang Theodorakis, allen extremen Herausforderungen des Schicksals trotzend, sowohl im Bereich der Volksmusik als auch in dem der sinfonischen Musik ein unvergleichliches Œuvre zu schaffen, das weltweit Millionen Menschen begeistert, inspiriert, motiviert. Seine Biographie und sein Werk sind in der Kultur- und Musikgeschichte unserer Zeit ohne Zweifel einzigartig. Asteris Koutoulas
