El retablo de Maese Pedro and Pulcinella represent – with nods to puppet theatre and crystalline orchestrations inspired in the music prior to Romanticism - two quintessential spectacles which history books termed as Neoclassicism. A hodgepodge  etiquette, with extremely porous boundaries, but which eventually became an authentic lingua franca  during  the interwar period, Or, as well, an open space for musical  languages which were flagrantly opposed, but which shared  that nostalgia for rationality  -  clarity and beauty -  increasingly threatened  by radical ideologies in the extreme along with nationalisms exclusive of different manifestations.

The luminous and carefree universe of the Commedia dell’Arte was the starting point for the ballet with voices  Pucinella, premiering in Paris in 1920, and based on the music - much of it apocryphal -  of  18th century composer Giovanni Battista Pergolesi. For his part, Manuel de Falla recreated a quixotic episode in his chamber opera El retablo de Maese Pedro. First seen in Seville in 1923, coinciding with the coup d’état of Primo de Rivera, this score mirrors the sounds of the Spanish Golden Age with a very personal approach.

English

El retablo de Maese Pedro y Pulcinella constituyen –con sus referencias al teatro de marionetas y sus cristalinas orquestaciones inspiradas en la música anterior al Romanticismo– dos espectáculos quintaesenciales de lo que los libros de historia denominan Neoclasicismo. Una etiqueta «cajón de sastre» y con fronteras extremadamente porosas, pero que acabó convirtiéndose en una auténtica lingua franca durante el periodo de entreguerras. O, también, un espacio abierto a lenguajes musicales flagrantemente opuestos pero que compartieron la nostalgia por una racionalidad –claridad y belleza– cada vez más amenazada por radicalismos ideológicos y nacionalismos excluyentes de distinto signo.

El universo luminoso y desenfadado de la Commedia dell’Arte fue el punto de partida del ballet con números cantados Pulcinella, estrenado en París en 1920 y basado en la música –mucha de ella apócrifa– del compositor del siglo XVIII Giovanni Battista Pergolesi. Por su parte, Manuel de Falla recreó un episodio quijotesco en su ópera de cámara El retablo de Maese Pedro. Estrenada en Sevilla en el año 1923 –el del golpe de Estado de Primo de Rivera–, esta partitura recrea de forma personalísima los sonidos del Siglo de Oro español.
