THE SCENCE / NEW YORK, January 8, 1990
First execution
"In Moscow, in the Russian Church, built in Baroque styles, which is today a part of the Museum of Icons, a tremendous crowd of visitors has gathered, to be present in a kind of presentation.
On the left and left of the altar are huge speakers of stereo equipment, in the center - a table with a tape recorder, whose composer Alexei Rybnikov presents its new product that is called "Avos". Rybnikov, a man of 30 years old, said in early words about his essay and text, and then a hundred people who gathered here, listened to music in a winter unheated room, without removing warm coats. The atmosphere resembled cultural programs in Germany post-war.
Why the church is chosen by the point of view, why did this small amateur community gathered here? .. Rybnikov created in the genre of rock opera such a characteristic work for Moscow, and maybe for everything Soviet Union not typical. What happened that evening led to some movement of the gray zone of Soviet cultural life.
Alexey Rybnikov - famous composer. He says that from ten years has tried himself in the composition. Today, his work list is great, here music for television performances And the films "Buratino", "Red Cap," Baron Münhausen "," Treasure Island "- just about forty. In 1976, he meets on his own path of director of the Moscow Theater. Leninsky Komsomol Mark Zakharova. Thanks to this meeting, a nearly not known musical drama genre was born. Rybnikov writes music to the works of Pablo Neruda "Star and Death of Hoachin Muriet" and after that Rock Opera "Juno and Avos."
Liberalization B. music Life, observed for several years and aimed at eliminating the dissatisfaction of young people, the gradual admission of jazz, pop music, tour and techniques of Western groups, which enjoyed great success - all this allowed Rybnikov to make the first steps to the music of the Rock Opera with undoubted passion for genuine Russian music traditions. An interesting and consistent example of such new Opera - "Juno and Avos".
Rybnikov used Libretto A. Voznesensky, telling about the history that occurred in the XIX century ... Count Rezanov took an expedition on the ships "Juno" and "Avos" from Russia to California, where he loved the daughter of the governor of San Francisco, sixteen-year-old girl. He left ... she waited for him long years And finally, went to the monastery. Count Rezanov died under Krasnoyarsk ...
At first glance, sentimental love storyNevertheless, through the text of Lyrics Andrei Voznesensky, through music Alexey Rybnikov undoubtedly reached high level.
Modern objections of censorship, which still delays the release of the records, occur probably due to the idealistic fores of Russian-American relations. Critical statements to address tsarist Russia turn out to be relevant and in relation to today's day. So the Opera Rybnikov opera may be understood.
Clear following Russian traditions, first of all, in the area church musicfound in the text of prayer, sacred music, then very loud, then very quiet, here, in the museum premises or, rather, to say, in the church was in its place. As modern fine toolShe pushed the borders of musical and bureaucratic limitations. Music says more than a description of the composer giftedness of Rybnikov, his fantasy to use modern achievements, its expression. It is a pity that this work will not become the property of society ... "
Klaus Kunza, WestDeutsche Rundfunk, February 1981

It was decided to turn to Andrei Voznesensky for writing a libretto to the opera. Voznesensky did not support this idea, and instead suggested using his poem "Avos", created in 1970. He managed to convince Rybnikov and Zakharov, after which the work went on the adaptation of the poem to the scene. I had to work on many scenes and arias.
Since the word "Rock Opera" was forbidden at that time (like rock music at all), the authors called the work of the "modern opera".

Before leaving Rezanov says that with young years He is being tormented by one circumstance, the impression that the icon of the Kazan Mother of God made it - since then he belongs to the Virgin Mary rather as a beloved woman than the mother of God. Waving to him in the vision, the Virgin tells him not to horrify his feeling and promises to pray for him.
Under the Andreev flag, two ships are saved to the shores of California, "Juno and Avos." In Spanish at that time, California is nearing the wedding of the cumshots, daughters of the governor, and Señora Federico. Rezans on the face of Russia welcomed by California, and the governor invites him as the ambassador of Emperor Alexander, on the ball in honor of the sixteen years of his daughter. The rezanov ball invites to the dance to the dance - and this event becomes fatal in their lives and in the life of Federico. The groom openly jealines, the satellites of Rezanov enclose cynical bet, whether he can "rip the California flower." Men understand that none of them will go away without a fight.
At night, the Copter prays the Virgin Mary in his bedroom. Rezanov comes to her with the words of love.
In the soul, the cumsows at this moment will be born, and it meets the rezanne reciprocity. But happy fortune from now on turns away from Rezanov. The groom the grace causes him to duel, during which Federico dies. Russians are forced to urgently leave San Francisco.
By making a secret engagement with the grave, the rezans are started in the opposite way. In Siberia, he gets ill and dies under Krasnoyarsk.

Material prepared on the basis of RIA news and open sources
On the poems of the poet Andrei Voznesensky. The premiere took place on July 9 on the stage of the Moscow theater named after the Leninsky Komsomol (director Mark Zakharov, the design of Vladimir Vasilyeva's dance, the artist Oleg Shaincis), in the repertoire of which the performance is still.
The names of two sailboats, "Juno" and "Avos" were used in the title of the performance, on which the expedition of Nikolai Rezanov's expedition was saved.
History of creation
However, after some time, thanks to Peter Carden, the theater tour was held in Paris and Broadway in New York, then in Germany, the Netherlands and other countries. Subsequently, the opera was delivered to Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic, Germany, South Korea.
First source plot
According to the memories of Andrei Voznesensky, the poem "Avos" he began to write in Vancouver when "swallowed ... Forest pages about the rezanis of Tolstny Tom J. Lensen, whining the fate of our brave compatriot." In addition, the rowing diary of Rezanov was also preserved and was partially published, which was also used by Voznesensky.
And two more centuries, there was a symbolic act of reunion of lovers. In the fall of 2000, the sheriff of the California city of Benish, where the death of Arguuelo was buried, brought to Krasnoyarsk, the handful of land from her grave and a rose to impose white Crosson one side of which words are knocked out I will never forget you, and on the other - I will never see you.
Naturally, both the poem and opera are not documentary chronicles. As Voznesensky himself says about it:
The author is not as displaced by concert and frivolism to depict persons real on scarce information about them and insult their approximate. Images of them, as well as names, only the capricious echo of the fate of the well-known. And the tragedy of the gospel woman flooded by the highest dogma is unproveless, although it is undoubted. For not the right to the idea of live life and feeling.
