What is Confronting Stravinsky : Man, Musician, and Modernist about?
Starting with a solo intonation (zapevalo), the ensemble of singers would without any warning split into parts, each of which was also a self-sufficient melody not too divergent from the one that could conceivably be termed "principal." In actual fact there was no principal melody. Each singer could contend with justice that he was giving the basic contours of the song. The resultant tonal image converged into unison only at the very end, while the bulk of the song - always excepting the solo opening-was intoned in a kind of unfixable, yet new and baffling harmony. \({ }^{37}\)
