Miranda Levy was noted in her obituary as "the woman who jump-started the Santa Fe Opera" by introducing its founding director to Stravinsky Roberts. Stravinsky supervised the opera house's opening production of his "A Rake's Progress" in 1957 and subsequently returned to Santa Fe every summer after that until 1963.

‎Genève: Edition Ad. Henn 1917. . Oblong 4to. 19 x 27.7 cm. 2 14pp. Original wraps. . Signed at Morges Switzerland and dated 21 Nov. 1917 and inscribed .The poet and playwright René Morax founded his Théâtre du Jorat near Mézières Switzerland in 1903. Made entirely of wood so as to be integrated into the barns of the surrounding countryside it was described this way in an early account: “A theater decidedly unlike any other. A sort of vast chalet a kind of huge barn smelling of resin dried hay fresh fruit and on days when there was a performance Sunday clothes but retaining the rustic dignity of a shrine. A large stage descending in broad steps toward the orchestra pit …â€The theater was closed for several years during the Great War and Morax conceived a drama on the subject of King David to reopen it in 1921. When he turned to his wealthy friend Werner Reinhart who incidentally had recently funded the creation of Stravinsky’s Soldier’s Tale telling him that he was taking inspiration from Hindu theater for this work his patron offered to lend rare Hindu drums in addition to financial assistance. The text is drawn from the Hebrew Bible I and II Samuel I Kings in addition to the Huguenot Psalter which includes poetry by Clément Marot. The poet’s brother Jean Morax set to work designing costumes and sets. After several more established composers turned him down René on the advice of Stravinsky and the distinguished conductor Ernest Ansermet chose the then unknown twenty-eight year old Arthur Honegger. “When Swiss poet Rene Morax 1873-1963 was looking for a composer for his new King David libretto Stravinsky recommended the twenty-nine-year-old Arthur Honegger a composer who just six years later creating the film score for Abel Gance’s Napoleon would reveal himself as a master of music’s ability to translate epics into sweeping evocative sound. In 1921 right on the cusp of his first successes Honegger wrote the David score in a flush of creative energy.â€. Provenance from the estate of René Morax.

In March 1910 during the later stages of composing The Firebird he had experienced the famous 'fleeting vision' out of which The Rite of Spring was to grow. But when Diaghilev and Nijinsky visited him in Lausanne in September 1910 they found him at work on something quite different a concert piece for piano and orchestra called 'Petrushka's Cry'. Together with a 'Russian Dance' composed soon afterwards this music was to form the basis of the ballet which Diaghilev instinctively urged him to write instead. . <br /> <br /> It is from the systematic attempt to render the particular flavour of traditional Russian life into music that Petrushka derives many of its freshest and most original qualities. . <br /> <br /> Looked at in general terms the opening sequence of Petrushka is a prototype of later Stravinskian form. Its underlying rhythmic design may not be complex in the same way as that of The Rite of Spring or the later Russian works but its intricacy of rhythmic detailing and its mixture of a highly fluid pattern of melodic stress with an inert background harmony laid the groundwork for a technique which through many changes of superficial style was to serve him for the rest of his life." Walsh: The Music of Stravinsky pp. 24-29. <br /> <br /> "Petroushka proved just as successful with the public and critics as The Firebird had been; but it was undoubtedly a more original work. In the first place Stravinsky had been able to play a leading part in the construction of the scenario which had not been the case with The Firebird. Secondly whereas the music of The Firebird showed that the pupil had learnt all that his master had had to teach him in Petrushka for the first time the authentic voice of the new master is heard." TNG Vol. 18 pp. 244-245. <br /> <br /> Petrushka one of Stravinsky's best-known and loved works represents the essence of Diaghilev's monumental Ballets Russes era. The ballet received its first performance with the incomparable Nijinsky in the title role at the Théâtre du Châtelet on 13 June 1911 conducted by Pierre Monteux with choreography by Fokine and designs by Alexandre Benois.

‎Stravinsky: In Pictures and Documents.‎

‎New York: Simon and Schuster 1978. First edition of this authoritative biography of Igor Stravinsky. Quarto original cloth profusely illustrated with black-and-white photographs. From the collection of Tony Grammy and Emmy Award-winning composer Charles Strouse and his wife choreographer Barbara Siman. Over his 50-year career Charles Strouse wrote the music for such iconic musical theater hits as Bye Bye Birdie Applause and Annie as well as the theme song for the classic sitcom All in the Family "Those Were the Days". His partnership with Martin Charnin on Annie produced one of Broadway's most successful scores ever with "Tomorrow" and other songs from the production becoming enduring American musical standards admired by generations. His reach knew no genre or generation – from a number-one Billboard hit in 1958 to Jay-Z's Grammy-winning sampling of "It's the Hard-Knock Life" four decades later – and his honors include three Tony Awards and induction into both the Songwriters and Theater Halls of Fame. With his ownership stamp to the front free endpaper. Near fine in a very good dust jacket. Designed by Edith Fowler. Jacket design by Robert Anthony. Stravinsky in Pictures and Documents 1978 is a monumental documentary biography of Igor Stravinsky 1882-1971 assembled by the composer's widow Vera Stravinsky 1888-1982 and his longtime musical associate and amanuensis Robert Craft 1923-2015. Departing from conventional narrative the authors tell the story of one of the twentieth century's supreme musical figures largely through primary materials hundreds of photographs letters diary entries contracts and other documents drawn from the Stravinsky archive many published here for the first time accompanied by Craft's connecting commentary and a wealth of annotation. The result is an unusually intimate chronicle that follows Stravinsky from his Russian childhood and the epoch-making early ballets The Firebird Petrushka and The Rite of Spring through his years in Switzerland France and the United States illuminating not only his music but the artists writers and impresarios among them Diaghilev Picasso and Cocteau who populated his extraordinary life. Vera a painter and former dancer who became Stravinsky's second wife and Craft who lived within the Stravinsky household for more than two decades were uniquely placed to compile this rich and authoritative record.
