Voivode's dream on the Volga summary. Volga river

A DREAM ON THE VOLGA - opera by A. Arensky in 4 d. (7 k.), libretto by the composer based on the drama by A. Ostrovsky “The Voevoda” (“Dream on the Volga”). Premiere: Moscow, Bolshoi Theater, December 21, 1890, conducted by the author.

Ostrovsky's play exists in two author's editions, which differ significantly ideologically. In the 2nd, social-critical motives are weakened and replaced by ethical-religious ones. Arensky's opera is based on the 1st edition; the libretto reproduces the sequence of action and Ostrovsky's poems, only the necessary cuts are made (in particular, the prologue and the scene of the meeting of the fugitives with the hermit are excluded). A major event in the artistic life of Russia was the production of Ostrovsky’s “The Voevoda” on the stage of the Maly Theater in 1886, which undoubtedly stimulated the composer’s work on the opera. Although the events of the drama date back to the 17th century, its theme - the omnipotence of the governor oppressing the people, the growth of protest and anger - could not but sound sharply modern in the 80-90s. XIX century True, Arensky somewhat softened the social-critical sound of the text.

Voivode Nechai Shalygin, a rapist and robber, arouses the fierce hatred of the people. He took the wife of the townsman Dubrovin, ruined others, and threw him into prison. The voluptuous governor captures the bride of the nobleman Stepan Bastryukov. With the help of Dubrovin, Bastryukov tries to free the girl, but Shalygin manages to detain the fugitives. The reprisal is close, but the royal messenger reports that the governor’s lawlessness has become known in Moscow and he has been deprived of power.

Arensky's music continues the traditions of Russian opera; it is closest to Tchaikovsky's "The Enchantress", although it is inferior to it in strength and expressiveness. The melody of the opera is clear, sincere, the genre and everyday episodes are interesting, but overall the music lacks drama. The most powerful scenes were the scenes of the brownie and especially the dream of the governor, as well as the lullaby of an old peasant woman over the unsteadiness of a child, clearly expressing the suffering of disadvantaged people. The author used authentic folk songs and carefully followed their intonation structure in his own themes. The freshness of the melody, the mastery of orchestration, the skillful use of techniques developed by Russian composers - all this determined the merits of the opera. Tchaikovsky liked the work. He wrote to his brother on January 11, 1891: “Yesterday I went to Moscow to listen to Arensky’s “Dream on the Volga.” A wonderful opera! Some scenes are so good that I was truly shocked to tears. Especially the dream scene is amazing. I just wrote to Vsevolozhsky (director Imperial Theaters. - A.G.) warm recommendation of this opera for St. Petersburg.”

The recommendation didn't help. The stage fate of “Dream on the Volga” was unfavorable. After Moscow, the opera was staged in St. Petersburg, on stage People's House(1903), but was not successful and was not staged again. Only on the concert stage are arias from it occasionally heard - in particular, Marya Vlasyevna’s song “Nightingale”.

How will it all end? Remember the end of the dream.

  • You managed to get out, stay dry - you will overcome difficulties and surprise yourself.
  • If you get out of the water, but all your clothes and hair are wet - you can solve the problems, but they will leave a serious mark on you later life. A sediment inside, disappointment.
  • The wave is chasing you, but you managed to escape from it - show cunning and dexterity (“you will come out unscathed”).

The longer you were underwater, the longer the period of trouble will be. We got out quickly - problems were solved in 1-2 days. If you've been floundering under the water for a long time, you'll have to work hard.

Big waves on the sea in the distance

Why do you dream about a big wave? There is such a situation that it is observed as if from the outside. The waves don't touch you physically, but they interest you emotionally.

This dream suggests that you will find yourself in a situation that will not directly affect you, but you will participate in it.

If it is pleasant sunny weather, beautiful waves, the events will be joyful. Perhaps you will be invited to a wedding, anniversary or other celebration.

Large waves destroy nearby buildings, carry away people - troubles among loved ones, relatives, friends or in a team. It could be a divorce of a brother or sister, an accident in a family of friends.

Dreaming of a huge wave

Why do you dream about a big wave? As you prepare for bed, you mentally review the information that is bothering you. For example, an upcoming transaction, an exam, moving to a new place of residence, important decision, large purchase. All this is programmed by the subconscious. In a dream you will receive information, an answer to a question that interests you. This dream may foretell the failure of your plans.

The most favorable dream with a huge wave

What else can the dream book tell us? The wave is huge, but you managed to ride it and move quickly along the sea? You can't imagine anything better! You will become the darling of fate. The situation will develop in such a way that everything will be decided without your participation, but in your favor. Enormous success, recognition, luck and happiness are guaranteed!

The dream is about:

  • long-awaited happy marriage;
  • meeting promising people or sponsors;
  • business development and making big profits;
  • overcoming a serious illness;
  • getting a well-paid job.

Everyone has dreams. Some remember them and try to interpret them, others do not attach any importance to them. But this does not change the result. The picture you see in a dream will definitely be transferred to real life. However, it should be remembered that a dream can foreshadow both an imminent event that will come true within 1-2 days, and “work” for the future. That is, it will be possible to assess its power within a month.

Pay special attention to your feelings. If you read in a dream book that your sleep is quite favorable, but anxiety does not go away, it means that something will go wrong.

Have a nice sleep! May you see a big wave more often in your dreams on a clear sunny day!
