In Russia, the first grand opera,<em> La Muette de Portici<\/em>, was performed in St. Petersburg in 1834, followed by <em>Robert le Diable <\/em>(1834?) and <em>Guillaume Tell <\/em>(1836), which gained huge popularity among Russian audiences.<br \/>\nThese grand operas, however, were not performed in the same original form as in their native France. In the Imperial Theatres, which belonged to the Russian tsar, there was strict censorship of religious and political matters, and an operatic work\u2019s content was often drastically modified.<br \/>\nThis presentation will introduce the context of the performance and perception of grand opera in Russia, its influence on Russian opera, and the number of performances, which amounted to more than half of all the operatic productions in late-19th-century Moscow and St. Petersburg, as well as its ties with Russian ballet, which led world ballet from the beginning of the 20th century onwards. (The presentation will be based on the recently published book <em>L\u2019Opera de Paris and Grand Opera<\/em>, Shinwasha, 2022.)<\/li>\n<li>Profile of Presenter:<br \/>\nEmiko Hirano holds a Ph.D. in Literature (The University of Tokyo, 2010) and is a Professor in Residence at Chukyo University.
