I. Armsheimer’s musical solutions of the ballet “Halt of the Cavalry” edited by M. Petipa and P. Gusev

Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of I. Armsheimer’s music to M. Petipa’s ballet “Halt of the Cavalry”. In parallel with the consideration of each number separately, detailed comparative characteristics of the music of the ballet in the version of P. Gusev, familiar to the modern viewer, and the score of the original version of 1896, which until now have remained little studied by researchers of the choreographic and musical arts, are given. The research work done allows us to assert that Armsheimer’s bright, imaginative sound material plays a key role in shaping the overall artistic appearance of “Halt of the Cavalry”: the characters and plot twists and turns of this ballet performance get an accurate and memorable musical embodiment in its score.
