Autograph music manuscript signed (on title 'Igor Stravinsky' and again at opening 'I. Str'), 'Le Chant du Merle' (Song of the blackbird) from the 'mélodrame' Perséphone, Paris, 27 October 1933
In short score, two systems of four staves, title and 11½ pages (paginated), 283 x 205mm, a fair copy but with a number of erasures and revisions, in a single gathering. Provenance: inscribed on title to Ida Rubinstein (1883-1960: 'à Ida Rubinstein / son fidèle collaborateur / Igor Stravinsky’ and again at the top of p.1 ‘Pour vous, Ida Lvovna, ce “Chant du Merle” / Votre I.Str.').
An early manuscript for this collaboration with André Gide and Ida Rubinstein. The present manuscript is from an early stage of composition, and shows a number of variations from the published work: it is presented to the legendary dancer, actor and patron Ida Rubinstein, at whose suggestion the work was composed, and whose ballet company staged the first production at the Opéra de Paris on 30 April 1934, with Rubinstein herself dancing and speaking the part of Persephone. The libretto is by André Gide, based on his play of the same name.
