"Spartak Epoch - an exciting historical erain human life ... "
(Aram Khachaturian)
With the undisputed stability of the technical cult in art - and he existed long enough - still every significant artist sooner or later returned to the pureblands of wildlife and living senses. After all, in art, as in life, there is a kind of fashion that dominates, the knowledge of which is an integral part of the artist's professionalism.
Years later, when the attractiveness of fashion trends is inferior to a calm and mature search for his own way, artists return to the eternal categories of good, truth, beauty. These categories can be expressed in different ways: in circulation to eternal stories, images, to historical legends entering deep wisdom.
Aram Khachaturian One of the best works - Ballet "Spartak" - wrote to the plot about the ancient hero of Spartak, the leader of Roman slaves. "It seems to me that the topic of Spartak is consonant and close to our time," the composer wrote, emphasizing the unity of the past and present, deep instructiveness of historical experience.
Ancient Rome appears in ballet as a magnificent multi-cable city, marked with a majestic architecture (the action unfolds on the area in the Triumphal Arch), and the wealth of human characters.
Gladiators (Gladiator in ancient Rome - a fighter from slaves or prisoners of war, fought in the circus arena with another fighter or with a wild beast), Patricia (Patricia - Aristocrat in ancient Rome), Slaves, Legionnaires (Legioner - Soldier Legion. Legion in ancient Rome - Large military unit.), Pirates, merchants and ordinary townspeople are such a Pencing picture of the life of a slave-owner Rome, this city of contrasts, combining and genuine grandeur, and deep poverty.
"It is necessary to live with straightened wings ..."
(Sergey Konenkov, Russian sculptor 20th century)
The plot based on the libretto, tells about the uprising of slaves against Roman enslavers and his ill-suppression. Through the entire ballet passes the main topic - the rejection of slavery, passionate aspiration to victory.
Here are two opposing forces, characterized by expressive and figurative music. The personification of representatives of the luxurious and powerful Rome we see in the images of the cruel and insidious commander of Crassus and its supervisory curtains of Egina. Another storyline is embodied in the images of captured slaves represented by their leader - the gigner of Spartacus and his devoted beloved Freigia.
Based on the most significant ballet numbers - genuine historical facts. It is with them that the unique atmosphere of the historic era is connected, which permeates all the music of ballet, despite its modernity. And the spirit of time, colorfully and expressively shown in the ballet, marked bright emotionality, alive and diverse feelings.
Hearing: Khachaturian. "Death of Gladiator" from the ballet "Spartak"
The most tragic scenes are transferred to the composer with the help of close and relatives of the people's national-national intonations. Such, for example, the "death of Gladiator", causing the associations from the listeners with folk lyrical music, then an elevated-declamination, then sad-dramatic.
It is noteworthy that the composer concerns not the entertainment at all, so appreciated by the ancient Romans during the battle of gladiators. He draws attention to the other - the price of the patrician in the corrupted city is the life of a person.
Hearing: Khachaturian. "Adagio Spartak and Frigia" from the ballet "Spartak"
Another mood is marked with a scene, called "Adagio Spartak and Frigia". One of the brightest fragments of the ballet, this episode sounds like a hymn bright and sublime love of two main characters, the love of true and therefore the immortal.
So we see that in the twentieth century, composers still appeal to eternal topics that continue to sound in modern music, covering the best pages.
Questions and tasks:
- What do you think gives reason to consider the plot about the uprising of Spartacus an eternal storyline?
- What do you think A. Khachaturian embodied the legend about the Spartak's uprising in the ballet genre?

B. Bellotto view of the Colosseum
Bernardo Belotto (1721 - 1780) belongs to a number of Venice artists of the XVIII century.
In this picture with the care that meets the requirements of the Epoch of Enlightenment, the artist captured the Colosseum - ancient Roman amphitheater, built in the first century. A huge dilapidated building occupies most of the work, being in it the main acting person.
Bellotto did not adhere to topographic reliability when writing an ancient amphitheater. He placed a number of non-existent structures and revived a peculiar picturesque installation of human figures.
A look at the history of old centuries as something very close was also in the spirit of a challenging era of enlightenment. In the one depicted here, the Time left his mysterious imprint, and everything around, even the air, ispiced by this mystery.
J. Zher. Death of Gladiator
Like many customs of deep antiquity, the fights of gladiators in the arena of the Colosseum, which began as a religious rite, became a public spectacle.
In the middle of the 19th century, Jean-Leon Zherra began to write paintings on historical topics.
In the picture of Zheroma "Death of Gladiator" (has another name "fingers down") depicted an end to the gladiator battle, where the mighty and strong winner, coming down on the defeated enemy, appeals to the emperor and viewers of the Roman Colosseum, waiting for the verdict about the fate of the defeated gladiator, And the gesture of thumb. The defeated gladiator turned his head to the crowd, stretching his hand praying for mercy ...
Often people are misconceptions of history, as well as modern cinema. They led to the fact that many think that the fate of the defeat of the gladiator in ancient Rome actually determined the audience, Make or lowering the thumb. On the Arena Rome really attended the gesture of the thumb, but they used it quite differently. If the priests pointed to them down, it meant to "lower the sword", so that the fighter had the opportunity to continue the battle on another day. People began to believe that gestures with a finger from the crowd during gladiator battles are the meaning of approval and disapproval after a similar episode in his picture handed over the artist Jean-Leon Zherom. He painted as a gladiator with a sword looks at the reaction of the public, which fiercely shows him "finger down", which in this context means disapproval.
