The Function of the Music in Porgy

Music has a way to express our emotions. We say that we have a musical feeling, we know which song makes us happy, and what makes us sad. But music intelligently links us through understanding of lyrics and what that means. Therefore, music has become a way to connect knowledge and emotional living - to combine thought and emotion. In the novel "Boggi", music is regarded as a tool for doing this, but in particular, regardless of whether the music is a song, imitation, or explanation, in order to associate a mental state with an emotional state It is used for.

Poggi and Beth are 1959 American music films supervised by Otto Preminger. It is based on the 1935 opera "Pogui" and "Beth", George Gershwin, Dubos Hayward and Era Gershwin, the latter based on Hayward's 1925 novel "Pogui". And Hayward 's later adaptation to the stage other than 1927 music co - authored with his wife. Screenplay of Dorothy movies turns dramatic stories into spoken dialogues very close to opera, written by N. Richard Nash. This project is the last project of Samuel Goldwyn. For that controversial theme, the movie was shown briefly shortly after the initial reservation of the main city seat it caused different comments from the critics. Two months after the release, Goldwin reluctantly admitted that "no one is waiting for my next picture."

In 1976, the Houston Grand Theater led by music director John De Marne produced a stage for the new Poggi and Beth. It first recovered the full original score. After Houston's debut, it was held on Broadway's Uris Theater on September 25, 1976, and was recorded by RCA Records. This edition is very influential in reversing the tendency to think about work. For the first time in history, an American opera company, not a Broadway production company, solved that opera. This work is based on Gershwin's original perfect score. It did not include edits and other changes made by Gershwin before the premiere in New York, and it did not include the 1942 Sheryl Crawford Renaissance Reinvents or the 1959 movie version. As the composer imagined, it allows the public to accept the whole opera. From this point of view, Poggi and Beth are accepted as opera.
