Description
Specifications
The definitive contribution of ancient Greek myths to the cultivation of literature, music, and the visual arts is widely recognized in the history of European civilization, as is the role played by Ovid's "Metamorphoses." The original transformation of mythological narratives by the Latin poet into symphonies by the Austrian composer Carl Ditters von Dittersdorf is one of the overlooked contributions to the history of classical music. Through the examination of historical sources and critical review, the study sheds light on the history of the creation and dissemination of the Ovidian symphonic cycle, focusing on the presentation of the compositional logic and the interpretative decoding of the content. Dittersdorf's symphonic cycle is presented here for the first time in its true dimensions, restoring its place in the orchestral repertoire of the classical period.
