  • MUS 334: Opera,Culture and Storytelling

    3.00 Credits
    Centre College

    An in-depth investigation of five operas, spanning the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth centuries. The course is highly interdisciplinary, and non-music students are encouraged to enroll. Students examine the historical and societal factors that underlie each opera - the neo-classical Florentine project to restore Greek drama (at that time thought to have been all sung), the early eighteenth-century agenda of presenting rulers as wise and benevolent, Wagner's and Verdi's respective roles in creating unified German and Italian states, and so on. The class will also approach the complex question of opera as a unique and highly problematic mode of storytelling, one in which actors portray the speech of characters by means of singing on the operatic stage, and will consider as well the changing, ever nebulous role of the operatic orchestra in conveying the story to the audience. These and other questions intersect with philosophical, literary, and dramatic theory and criticism, leaving ample room for each student to bring his or her interests and course of study to bear on discussion, presentations, and final papers.
