Based on Pushkin's poem [Poltava].Rare printed musical score.
Mazeppa (or Mazepa) is a three-act opera composed by Pyotr Tchaikovsky (1840–1893), based on Pushkin's Poltava and inspired by the cultural legacy of Ivan Mazeppa, the Hetman of the Ukrainian Cossacks, and Vasyl Kochubey, a prosperous Ukrainian nobleman and statesman. The story takes place in Ukraine during the early 18th century. Tchaikovsky worked on the opera between June 1881 and April 1883, and he noted that it was one of the most challenging compositions he had ever undertaken. The opera bears many similarities to Tchaikovsky's other works, such as Eugene Onegin and Romeo and Juliet (as seen in the duet between Mazeppa and Mariya).
The libretto was written by Victor Burenin (1841–1926), a literary and theatre critic, writer, translator, and satirical poet. It was originally prepared for the 'czar of cellists', composer and director of the St. Petersburg Conservatory Karl Davydov, who worked on it in the middle of the 1870s but… Read More
