George Sebastian

ʻO ka alakaʻi Farani no Hungarian kumu. Hoʻomanaʻo maikaʻi nā mea aloha mele kahiko iā Georg Sebastian mai kāna mau hana ma USSR i nā makahiki kanakolu. No nā makahiki ʻeono (1931-1937) ua hana ʻo ia ma ko mākou ʻāina, alakaʻi i ka orchestra o ka All-Union Radio, hāʻawi i nā ʻaha mele he nui, hoʻokani ʻo ia i nā opera i ka hana ʻaha mele. Hoʻomanaʻo nā Muscovites iā Fidelio, ʻo Don Giovanni, ʻo ka ʻohe kupua, ka ʻaihue mai ka Seraglio, ka male ʻana o Figaro ma lalo o kāna alakaʻi. ʻO Khrennikov a me ka Suite Mua "Romeo a me Juliet" na S. Prokofiev.

I kēlā manawa, ua pio ʻo Sebastian me ka makemake i hoʻouna ʻia i ka poʻe mele, ka ikaika ikaika, ka electrification o kāna mau wehewehe, a me ka manaʻo hoʻoikaika. ʻO ia nā makahiki i hoʻokumu ʻia ai ke ʻano noʻeau o ka mea hoʻokani pila, ʻoiai ua loaʻa iā ia kahi manawa kūʻokoʻa ma hope ona.

Ua hānau ʻia ʻo Sebastian ma Budapest a ua puka ʻo ia mai ka Academy of Music ma 1921 ma ke ʻano he haku mele a me ka piano; ʻO kāna mau alakaʻi ʻo B. Bartok, 3. Kodai, L. Weiner. Akā naʻe, ʻaʻole i lilo ka haku mele i ʻoihana o ka mea hoʻokani pila, ua hoihoi ʻia ʻo ia ma ke alakaʻi ʻana; Ua heleʻo ia i Munich, kahi i lawe aiʻo ia i nā haʻawina mai Bruno Walter, ka mea āna i kapa ai i kāna "kumu nui", a liloʻo ia i mea kōkua ma ka hale opera. A laila ua kipa ʻo Sebastian i New York, hana ma ka Metropolitan Opera ma ke ʻano he alakaʻi alakaʻi, a hoʻi i ʻEulopa, kū ʻo ia ma ka hale opera - mua ma Hamburg (1924-1925), a laila ma Leipzig (1925-1927) a, hope loa, ma Berlin (1927-1931). A laila hele ka mea alakaʻi i Soviet Russia, kahi āna i hana ai no ʻeono makahiki ...

I ka pau ʻana o nā makahiki kanakolu, ua nui nā huakaʻi i lawe kaulana iā Sebastian. I ka wā e hiki mai ana, ua hana ka mea pena kiʻi no ka manawa lōʻihi ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa, a ma 1940-1945 ua alakaʻi ʻo ia i ka Pennsylvania Symphony Orchestra. I ka makahiki 1946, ua hoʻi ʻo ia i ʻEulopa a noho ma Palika, a lilo ʻo ia kekahi o nā alakaʻi alakaʻi o ka Grand Opera a me Opera Comic. Ke hele mau nei ʻo Sebastian i nā mākaʻikaʻi he nui, e hana ana ma kahi kokoke i nā kikowaena mele āpau o ka ʻāina. I nā makahiki ma hope o ke kaua, ua kaulana ʻo ia ma ke ʻano he unuhi ʻōlelo akamai i nā hana a ka Romantics, a me ka opera Farani a me nā mele symphony. ʻO kahi wahi koʻikoʻi i kāna hana e noho ʻia e ka hana o nā mele Lūkini, ʻelua symphonic a me operatic. Ma Palika, ma lalo o kāna alakaʻi ʻana, ua hoʻokani ʻia ʻo Eugene Onegin, The Queen of Spades a me nā keaka ʻē aʻe Lūkini. I ka manawa like, ākea loa ka laulā repertory o ka conductor a uhi i ka nui o nā hana symphonic nui, ka mea nui e nā mea haku mele o ke kenekulia XNUMX.

I nā makahiki he kanaono, ua lawe hou mai nā huakaʻi a Sebastian iā ia i ka USSR. Ua hana ke alakaʻi me ka lanakila nui ma Moscow a me nā kūlanakauhale ʻē aʻe. Ua kōkua kona ʻike i ka ʻōlelo Lūkini iā ​​ia i kāna hana me ka orkestra. "Ua ʻike mākou iā Sebastian mua," i kākau ai ka mea hoʻopiʻi, "makemake, aloha i ke mele, huhū, huhū, mau manawa e hoʻopau ai i ka poina iā ʻoe iho, a me kēia (ʻo kekahi hapa no kēia kumu) - ʻaʻohe kaulike a hopohopo." Ua ʻike ka poʻe loiloi ʻo ka hana a Sebastian, me ka ʻole o ka nalowale ʻana o kona hou, ua lilo i hohonu a maikaʻi hoʻi i nā makahiki, a ua ʻae kēia iā ia e lanakila i nā mea mahalo hou i ko mākou ʻāina.
