This study of Camille Saint-Saëns's opéra comique Phryné (1893), representing the famous Greek courtesan in the title role, outlines how the composer made the case for the continued viability of the opéra comique genre in a context where lighter opérettes by Jacques Offenbach on classical subjects were much celebrated on French stages. Saint-Saëns's efforts are seen through both his dislike of Offenbach's music and the flexible use of generic name markers in musical comedies of the period. In marking out an aesthetic space for new musical comedy that was not Offenbach's, Saint-Saëns and his librettist Lucien Augé de Lassus conjoined their Hellenic subject matter not only with a canon of painting and sculpture but also with musical qualities deemed classical in the fin-de-siècle environment.
本研究Camille Saint-Saëns的opsamra comique phryn(1893),代表着着名的希腊妓女在标题角色,概述了作曲家如何在雅克·奥芬巴赫(Jacques Offenbach)关于古典主题的较轻的opsamra comique流派在法国舞台上备受赞誉的背景下,为opsamra comique流派的持续可行性提出了案例。Saint-Saëns的努力可以从他对奥芬巴赫音乐的厌恶和在那个时期的音乐喜剧中灵活使用通用名称标记中看出。在为不属于奥芬巴赫的新音乐喜剧划定审美空间的过程中,Saint-Saëns和他的剧作家吕西安·奥格格·德·拉苏斯(Lucien aug de Lassus)不仅将他们的希腊主题与绘画和雕塑的经典结合起来,而且还将音乐品质与在fin-de- si环境中被视为古典的音乐品质结合起来。

This article is in essence a study of intertextuality in two musico-dramatic genres in Paris of the 1850s: the comédie-vaudeville and straight plays with incidental music. The ‘texts’ that are considered here are interpolated songs in the comédie-vaudeville and purely instrumental interpolations in plays. Their intertextuality depends on the age-old process of contrafactum. Yet a problem arises when the listener cannot recognize the original source of the contrafactum and cannot perceive the intertext. The article traces such an intertextual problem. It illustrates how the attempt to answer what would appear to be a minor question regarding music in a comédie-vaudeville led to consideration of an aspect of Jacques Offenbach's output that has received very little attention and which in turn poses some problems of its own. I begin by discussing how intertextuality and musical memory were exploited in the nineteenth-century Parisian comédie-vaudeville. I then discuss how my inability to identify a ‘text’, in this case a particular tune used in a production in a Parisian theatre was so bothersome that it caused it to stick in my memory, which in turn allowed me to recognize it in a work by Offenbach. This in turn led to consideration of a short story and a play in which intertextual musical memory plays a large role, and to the music that Offenbach composed for the performance of that play which surprisingly led to the solution of the problem, the identification of the tune. I end with further comments.

Music DH 2021: A Directory of Digital Scholarship in Music (hereafter Music DH) (https://rutgersdh.github.io/musicdh/) represents the work of a collaborative project of the Digital Humanities Interest Group of the Music Library Association. Librarians and scholars, many of whom have experience either creating or supporting digital humanities work, collected, collated, and catalogued more than 200 projects that now comprise Music DH. Since its launch in 2021, it has been maintained by Francesca Giannetti, who is the Digital Humanities Librarian at Rutgers University and the Co-Director of the Rutgers Digital Humanities Institute. The Sources page in the site acknowledges, however, that Giannetti is standingon the shouldersof giants in championingMusicDH.Thisproject grew inpart out of existingbibliographies that cataloguedigital projects related to musical topics. The directory platform itself also leans heavily on designs used in other digital scholarship websites. The clear acknowledgement of collaboration and antecedents is in keepingwith the spirit of born-digital scholarship: it takes a village to conceive, launch and support born-digital work. For anyone seeking to expand research based in traditional publication formats, Music DH should be a first stop on the way to augmenting both primary source and secondary research. It is currently the only open-access directory of digital resources that specializes in musical scholarship where each of the indexed items are catalogued with a standardized and searchable bibliographic record.
Music DH 2021:音乐数字奖学金目录(以下简称Music DH) (https://rutgersdh.github.io/musicdh/)是音乐图书馆协会数字人文兴趣小组的一个合作项目。图书馆员和学者,他们中的许多人都有创建或支持数字人文工作的经验,收集,整理和编目了200多个项目,现在构成了音乐DH。自2021年推出以来,它一直由罗格斯大学数字人文图书馆馆长、罗格斯数字人文研究所联合主任弗朗西斯卡·吉安内蒂(Francesca Giannetti)维护。然而,网站上的消息来源页面承认,Giannetti站在巨人的肩膀上支持musicdh。这个项目部分源于现有的书目,这些书目对与音乐主题相关的数字项目进行了编目。目录平台本身也严重依赖于其他数字奖学金网站使用的设计。对合作和前因后果的明确承认符合“天生数字化”的学术精神:需要一个村庄来构思、启动和支持“天生数字化”的工作。对于任何寻求以传统出版形式扩展研究的人来说,Music DH应该是增加主要来源和次要研究的第一站。它是目前唯一的开放访问的数字资源目录,专门从事音乐学术,其中每个索引项目编目与标准化和可搜索的书目记录。
