Fyodor Ignatievich Stravinsky ((ロシア語:Фёдор Игна́тиевич Страви́нский)), , Halavintsy, Minsk Governorate ) was a Russian bass opera singer and actor. He was the father of Igor Stravinsky and the grandfather of Soulima Stravinsky. ==Life and career== His father Ignacy was a Catholic and came from a noble Polish family of Strawiński Sulima; his mother, Alexandra Ivanovna Skorokhodova, was a daughter of a Russian small landowner. Fyodor was baptised in accordance with the Orthodox rite due to Imperial Law which stated that children born of mixed Catholic-Orthodox marriages had to be brought up in the Russian Orthodox faith.〔Igor Stravinsky, Robert Craft, ''(Memories and commentaries )'', University of California Press, 1981, p. 17〕〔Roman Vlad, ''Stravinsky'', Cambridge University Press, 1978, p. 3〕〔Scott Lubaroff, ''An examination of the neo-classical wind works of Igor Stravinsky: the Octet for winds and Concerto for piano and winds'', E. Mellen Press, 2004, p. 5〕 In 1869 he completed his education at the Nizhyn Lyceum, where he sang in the church choir. He studied voice at the Saint Petersburg Conservatory from 1869–73. He later studied with Camille Everardi in Kiev. Stravinsky started his solo singing career in Kiev (1873–76) before moving to Saint Petersburg, where he sang at the Mariinsky Theatre for 26 years, from 1876 to 1902. He was hailed as the successor to Osip Petrov, he was renowned for his outstanding dramatic talent as an actor, and he was considered the leading bass at the Imperial Opera. He was admired for the depths of his psychological insights and his mastery of stagecraft. Stravinsky created a number of roles in operas by Tchaikovsky: * His Royal Highness in ''Vakula the Smith'' in 1876 * Dunois in ''The Maid of Orleans'' in 1881 * Mamirov in ''The Enchantress'' in 1887. He also appeared in the premiere performance of Nikolai Soloviev's ''Cordelia'' (24 November 1880, St. Petersburg),〔"Soloviev, Nikolai Feopemptovich" in ''Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians'', 5th ed.〕 and created the role of Moroz (King Frost) in Rimsky-Korsakov's opera ''The Snow Maiden'' (1882; his son Igor studied under Rimsky-Korsakov). Stravinsky was also known as an active advocate of Mykola Lysenko's music, often performing the role of Mykola in the opera ''Natalka Poltavka''. Among his great successors were Feodor Chaliapin and Lev Sibiriakov. Fyodor Stravinsky died in 1902 and was buried in the Artist's Cemetery in the Alexander Nevsky Monastery in Saint Petersburg. His memoirs are said to be invaluable. He also had a unique library which was very popular among bibliophiles. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fyodor Stravinsky」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
