Pyotr Karabanov (1765-1829)

Russian poet and translator (b. 19/30 July 1765 in Smolensk; d. 19 April/1 May 1829), born Pyotr Matveyevich Karabanov (Пётр Матвеевич Карабанов).

Tchaikovsky's Settings of Works by Karabanov

The text for the whole of the Interlude (Act II, No. 14) in the opera The Queen of Spades comes from verses by Karabanov, about which Tchaikovsky wrote: "The text of this chorus belongs to the pen of a little known last-century writer Karabanov. His job was to write texts for greetings and various cantatas for celebrations by Catherine's nobility. It is quite appropriate to perform this cantata in my opera, for the verses were written, the music arranged, and performed by singers at a domestic occasion held by Naryshkin" [1].
