Celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the Birth of Charles Munch

RCHESTRJ

To mark the centennial of the birth of Charles Munch, the Boston Symphony Archives has mounted a display of memorabilia in the Cohen Wing lobby. Using photographs, letters, programs, and other historical documents, the exhibit explores the career of Charles Munch, focusing on his tenure as Music Director of the Boston Symphony Orchestra from 1949 to 1962. In the photograph above, Munch (right) is shown with guest conductor Pierre Monteux (left), himself music director of the BSO from 1919 to 1924, and the train conductor just prior to departing on the BSO's transconti- nental tour in 1953. The Boston Symphony Archives extends special thanks to Bunnell Frame Shop for its generous assistance in mounting this exhibit. OFFICERS

SEIJI OZAWA

Now in his nineteenth year as music director of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, Seiji Ozawa was named the BSO's thirteenth music director in 1973, following a year as music adviser. His many tours with the orchestra in Europe, the Far East, and throughout the United States have included four visits to Japan (most recently in December 1989, on a tour that also included the orchestra's first concerts in Hong Kong), an eight-city North American tour in the spring of 1991, and a seven- city European tour to Greece, Austria, Germany, France, and England following the 1991 Tangle- wood season. His previous tours with the orchestra have included an historic visit to China in March 1979 for coaching, study, and discussion sessions with Chinese musicians, as well as concert performances, marking the first visit to China by an American performing ensemble following the establishment of diplomatic relations; the orchestra's first tour devoted exclusively to appearances at the major European music festivals, also in 1979; and, to celebrate the orchestra's centennial in 1981, a fourteen-city American tour and an international tour to Japan, France, Ger- many, Austria, and England.

Mr. Ozawa pursues an active international career, appearing regularly with the Berlin Philharmonic, the French National Orchestra, the New Japan Philhar- monic, the Orchestre de Paris, the Philharmonia of London, and the Vienna Phil- harmonic. Recent appearances conducting opera have included the Paris Opera, La Scala, Salzburg, and the Vienna Staatsoper; he has also conducted the Royal Opera at Covent Garden. In addition to his many Boston Symphony recordings, he has recorded with the Berlin Philharmonic, the Chicago Symphony, the London Philharmonic, the Orchestre National, the Orchestre de Paris, the Philharmonia of London, the Saito Kinen Orchestra, the San Francisco Orchestra, and the Toronto Symphony, among others. His recordings appear on the Deutsche Grammophon, EMI/Angel, Erato, Hyperion, New World, Philips, RCA, Sony Classical/CBS Mas- terworks, and Telarc labels.

Born in 1935 in Shenyang, China, to Japanese parents, Seiji Ozawa studied Western music as a child and later graduated with first prizes in composition and conducting from Tokyo's Toho School of Music, where he was a student of Hideo Saito. In 1959 he won first prize at the International Competition of Orchestra Conductors held in Besancon, France, and was invited to Tanglewood by Charles Munch, then music director of the Boston Symphony Orchestra and a judge at the competition. In 1960 he won the Tanglewood Music Center's highest honor, the Koussevitzky Prize for outstanding student conductor.

While a student of Herbert von Karajan in West Berlin, Mr. Ozawa came to the attention of Leonard Bernstein. He accompanied Mr. Bernstein on the New York Philharmonic's 1961 tour of Japan and was assistant conductor of that orchestra for the 1961-62 season. Mr. Ozawa made his first professional concert appearance in North America in January 1962, with the San Francisco Symphony. He was music director of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra's Ravinia Festival for five sum- mers beginning in 1964, music director of the Toronto Symphony from 1965 to 1969, and music director of the San Francisco Symphony from 1970 to 1976, fol- lowed by a year as that orchestra's music adviser. He conducted the Boston Sym- phony Orchestra for the first time in 1964, at Tanglewood, and made his first

8 Symphony Hall appearance with the orchestra in 1968. In 1970 he was named an artistic director of Tanglewood.

Mr. Ozawa holds honorary doctor of music degrees from the University of Mas- sachusetts, the New England Conservatory of Music, and Wheaton College in Norton, Massachusetts. He won an Emmy award for the Boston Symphony Orchestra's "Evening at Symphony" PBS television series.

Mr. Ozawa's compact discs with the Boston Symphony Orchestra include, on Philips, Mahler's First, Second, Fourth, Seventh, and Eighth symphonies, Mah- ler's Kinderiotenlieder with Jessye Norman, Richard Strauss's Elektra with Hilde- gard Behrens in the title role, and Schoenberg's Gurrelieder, with Jessye Norman, James McCracken, and Tatiana Troyanos. Recordings on Deutsche Grammophon include Poulenc's Gloria and Stabat mater with Kathleen Battle and the Tangle- wood Festival Chorus; Liszt's two piano concertos and Totentanz with Krystian Zimerman; Prokofiev's complete Romeo and Juliet; Berlioz's Romeo et Juliette and Damnation of Faust; and an album of music by Gabriel Faure. Other recordings by Seiji Ozawa and the Boston Symphony Orchestra include Beethoven's five piano concertos and Choral Fantasy with Rudolf Serkin, on Telarc; and, on Sony Classi- cal/CBS Masterworks, Strauss's Don Quiocote with Yo-Yo Ma, Mendelssohn's Vio- lin Concerto with Isaac Stern, and Berlioz's Les Nuits d'ete and Debussy's La Damoiselle elue with Frederica von Stade.

14 Gustav Mahler Symphony No. 6

Gustav Mahler was born in Kalischt (Kaliste) near

the Moravian border of Bohemia on July 7, 1860, and died in Vienna on May 18, 1911. He began composing the Sixth Symphony during his summer vacation at Maiernigg in 1903 and finished the work the following summer. The first performance took place under Mahler's direction in Essen on May 27, 1906. The first American performance was given by the New York Philharmonic under Dimitri Mitropoulos on December 11, 1947. The symphony entered the repertory of the Boston Symphony Orchestra on November 13 and 14, 1964, when

Erich Leinsdorf conducted it; Leinsdorf also took it on tour, to Washington, New Brunswick, and New York. William Steinberg and James Levine have also led BSO performances, Steinberg in Boston and New York in October 1971, Levine at Tanglewood in 1972 and in Brooklyn in February 1973. The most recent BSO per- formances ended the 1980-81 season; Seiji Ozawa conducted. The score calls for a pic- colo, two flutes (third and fourth also doubling piccolo), four oboes and English horn (third and fourth oboes also doubling English horn), three clarinets, E-flat clarinet, bass clarinet, four bassoons, contrabassoon, eight horns, six trumpets, four trombones and tuba, timpani (two players), a large complement of percussion including glockenspiel, cowbells, deep bells, Bute (a brush of twigs struck upon a hard surface), wooden ham- mer, bass drum, side drum, triangle, cymbals, and tam-tam, xylophone, two harps, celesta, and strings.

In 1921, Paul Bekker, in the earliest really substantial study of Mahler's work, Gustav Mahlers Sinfonien, began the chapter on the Sixth Symphony by noting that

at that time the trilogy of purely instrumental symphonies, Nos. 5, 6, and 7, were the

works least frequently performed, and that, of these, the Sixth was the rarest of all. For many years the Sixth was the only Mahler symphony never to have been given in America. (Serge Koussevitzky intended to remedy that defect in 1933, but apparently

was unable to make arrangements with the Leipzig publisher for the parts; it remained for Dimitri Mitropoulos to introduce the symphony to America in 1947, and by then the problems were different: the publisher's original parts had been destroyed in wartime bombings, so new parts had to be copied from the score.) Until quite recently, when, true to the composer's own prediction, his time came (with a ven- geance), these "middle" symphonies were still rarely heard. The ice was broken mostly by the Adagietto movement of the Fifth Symphony, which almost attained a life of its own, but gradually all of them have entered the repertory of the major orchestras and

have been recorded several times each. Today it is the Seventh Symphony, in many ways the most problematic and least satisfactory of Mahler's mature works, that is the stepchild of his new popularity; the Sixth has come to be quite firmly established.

Possibly part of the reason for the neglect of the middle symphonies was that audi- ences found it easier to follow Mahler's highly original approach to symphonic writing when provided with an explicit program (such as those he had produced for the First and Third symphonies before choosing to suppress them) or with a text (as in the Second, Third, Fourth, and Eighth). His dazzlingly complex and ingenious instrumen- tal symphonies simply overwhelmed the senses, especially before the development of the long-playing record, when one had to catch them at infrequent performances. No composer has benefited so much from the development of the recording as Mahler, simply because listeners can now live with his demanding works until they begin to 15 Week 14 WWttl^i^*%&J:M€r:;;W- M mim>:a waamam^^^n^^Bm

reveal their secrets. We might have expected that the Sixth would be easier to com- prehend than the others, if only because it is one of Mahler's rare productions to fol- low the traditional four-movement symphonic form, but the sombre and emotional quality of the score seems to have acted against it. Although Mahler avoided revealing any kind of program for the three symphonies, he did allow the Sixth to be performed with the epithet "Tragic"; later he removed even that much of a hint. The mood is, in any event, self-evident, since it is the only Mahler symphony to end unrelievedly in the minor. All the others, even when they start in the minor, proceed to blazing triumph or, at least, to gentle, poignant resignation — in the major mode. But though the fatal- ism of the ending— for Mahler was indeed a fatalist — may depress listeners who look instead for transfiguration, writers on Mahler increasingly rank the Sixth, taken as a whole, as his greatest symphonic achievement. The composer himself found the work almost too moving to bear and predicted — correctly, as it turned out — that the Sixth would languish in obscurity until the world knew his first five symphonies.

We might very well wonder why Mahler wrote a "tragic" symphony in 1903 and 1904. As is usually the case with such queries, the answer is by no means simple; indeed, perhaps no explanation is possible. On the face of it, tragedy should have been the thing furthest from Mahler's mind. He had married Alma Schindler, around

16 whom his life henceforth revolved, on March 9, 1902, and their first daughter, Maria, was born in November. The year was one of increasing professional acclaim for Mahler the composer, with the enormously successful premiere of the Third Sym- phony in Krefeld in May. (As a conductor he had already reached a pinnacle, having served as music director of the Vienna Opera since 1897.) And he had begun compos- ing with renewed vigor after his wedding, spending his summer vacations from the opera house engaged in feverish creative activity.* The Fifth Symphony, composed during the first summer after his wedding, is aptly characterized by Michael Kennedy as Mahler's Eroica, a symphonic conquest. But the Sixth, composition of which occu- pied the next two summers, is quite a different matter. The symphony is filled with the heavy tread of marching, with dotted rhythms, and, above all, with a motto idea that consists simply of an A major triad that suddenly turns to minor. This major-to- minor motto functions on the smallest scale as a metaphor for the mood of the entire

*We apparently owe at least part of Mahler's newfound prolificacy to the influence of Alma and the joys of conjugal bliss and stable family life. During the twenty years before his wedding, Mahler wrote four symphonies (and part of a fifth), a cantata, and some songs; in just five years after, he completed the Fifth, then went on to write the monumental Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth symphonies as well.

Till- BOSTON SYMPHONY BUSINESS FUND FourSeasons Hotel Playing A Part In The Community. BOSTON work, which several times in the last movement seems about to culminate in the major mode but finally shrinks from so positive a conclusion and ends tragically— but with defiance — in A minor. We have a tendency, ex post facto, to think of Mahler as a death-obsessed neurotic, virtually incapable of living in the real world but rather pour- ing out his anguish, longing, and intimations of mortality in his work. To a consider- able extent these views derive from Alma's memoirs, which are an indispensable source but must be used with extreme caution, since she had every reason to build up her own role in "sustaining" the composer through his tribulations. (A great deal of the Mahler legend and of our understanding of his music ultimately goes back to oth- erwise unsupported statements in Alma's memoirs.) Until his heart lesion was discov- ered in 1907 Mahler maintained a vigorous summer regimen of swimming, hiking, and mountain climbing, activities put in the service of generating and working out his musical ideas. Even Alma recalls that the two summers during which he composed the Sixth were emotionally untroubled. Of 1903, she said:

Summer had come, and with it we resumed our life at Maiernigg and its unvary- ing and peaceful routine. Mahler soon began working. This time it was the first sketches for the Sixth Symphony. He played a lot with our child, carrying her about and holding her up to dance and sing. So young and unencumbered he was in those days.*

Of 1904, the summer in which Mahler finished the symphony, Alma noted only that it was "beautiful, serene, and happy." (Their second daughter had been born that June.) Only one thing upset her — or so she remembered years later: in both summers Mahler set to music some poems by Friedrich Riickert dealing with the death of children.

I found this incomprehensible. I can understand setting such frightful words to music if one had no children, or had lost those one had. Moreover, Friedrich Riickert did not write these harrowing elegies solely out of his imagination: they

were dictated by the cruellest loss of his whole life. What I cannot understand is bewailing the deaths of children, who were in the best of health and spirits, hardly an hour after having kissed and fondled them. I exclaimed at the time: "For heaven's sake, don't tempt Providence!"!

The result, of course, was his greatest song cycle, Kinderiotenlieder, which was thus being conceived and composed at the same time as the Sixth Symphony.

Alma claimed similar foreboding upon hearing the completed symphony. (Despite the lengthy gestation period, encompassing two summers, she did not hear the work in progress; Mahler composed in a distant, private little hut in the wood and refused to play his music to anyone before it was finished: "An artist could no more show unfinished work than a mother her child in the womb.") On the day that Mahler finally announced the work to be finished, Alma rushed to get everything done in the house, then walked with him arm in arm to the little hut, where he played it through for her.

Not one of his works came so directly from his inmost heart as this. We both wept that day. The music and what it foretold touched us so deeply. The Sixth is

*Mahler built a summer house at Maiernigg on the shores of Lake Worth, in Carinthia, where Brahms before him had summered when he wrote his Second Symphony, Violin Concerto, and G major violin sonata. Later, Alban Berg was happy to be writing his own Violin Concerto on the shores of the same lake. tMahler's interest in Riickert' s poems was anything but ghoulish and only in retrospect can be seen as "tempting Providence." He was one of fourteen children, of whom only six survived to adulthood, so there was ample experience in his own childhood to develop an empathy toward the poems. In any case, his settings, among the most restrained and subtle of all his songs, entirely avoid the exploitation or bathos that are dangers in attempting to deal with such a topic.

the most completely personal of his works, and a prophetic one also. In the Kindertotenlieder, as also in the Sixth, he anticipated his own life in music. On him too fell three blows of fate, and the last felled him. But at the time he was serene; he was conscious of the greatness of his work. He was a tree in full leaf and flower.

We may well believe that the two were overcome by the deep personal expressive- ness of this music, but the reference to "what it foretold" is surely wisdom after the fact. The last movement contained, at three decisive points, a single powerful stroke with a hammer, the instrument being introduced into the score of the symphony solely for these three notes. According to Alma, the composer described the movement, with its hammer strokes, as "the hero, on whom fall three blows of fate, the last of which fells him as a tree is felled." With the hindsight of one writing her memoirs, Alma saw three "hammer strokes" that struck Mahler himself in the year 1907 (though her description of the events, which has been followed by most writers, telescopes the time span and gives the impression that the blows came directly one after the other): his resignation from the Vienna Opera in the face of mounting opposition to his reforms

(and the strong thread of anti-Semitism in the city's cultural life), the sudden and devastating death of his elder daughter Maria, at age four-and-a-half, from scarlet fever and diphtheria, and the discovery of his own serious heart condition — the blow

20 that "felled him." Still, though Alma and Mahler may not have reacted with forebod- ing when she first heard the music, the composer after 1907 came to be supersti- tiously afraid of the three hammer strokes and eventually removed the last, "mortal" blow. As the score is printed in the critical edition of Mahler's works, there are only two such strokes, though many conductors choose to reinstate the missing one. (The present performances will contain all three.)

The hammer blows presented a problem at the first performance. During the rehearsals it was discovered that they could not be heard to proper effect, and the performers tried striking the hammer against various objects — including a specially constructed drum of Mahler's own invention — to improve audibility, but none of them seems to have been entirely satisfactory. The Dutch conductor Willem Mengelberg wrote to the composer with a suggested solution, for which Mahler thanked him in a

22 letter promising to try it when he conducted the symphony in Amsterdam and plan- ning perhaps to add a note to the score by way of explanation. Unfortunately Mahler never did conduct the Sixth in Amsterdam, Mengelberg's letter to him is lost (so we do not know what his suggestion was), and the composer never changed the explana- tion in the score, which states simply that the hammer blow should be a "short, strong, but dully reverberating stroke of a non-metallic character (like an axe- stroke)." Thus the problem of creating the appropriate sound is left, in each case, to the performers.

Alma's memoirs recall the emotions aroused in the composer as he prepared the orchestra for the first performance of the Sixth, to be held at a festival of the United German Music Society in Essen, and the utter insensitivity of the other important composer there, Richard Strauss:

We came to the last rehearsals, to the dress-rehearsal — to the last movement with its three great blows of fate. When it was over, Mahler walked up and down in the artists' room, sobbing, wringing his hands, unable to control himself. Fried, Gabrilovitch, Buths, and I stood transfixed, not daring to look at one another. Suddenly Strauss came noisily in, noticing nothing. "Mahler, I say, you've got to conduct some funeral overture or other tomorrow before the Sixth — their mayor has died on them. So vulgar, that sort of thing— But what's the matter? What's up with you? But — " and out he went as noisily as he had * come in, quite unmoved, leaving us petrified.

Apparently one result of Mahler's highly wrought-up reaction to the dress rehearsal was that he did not conduct the premiere itself well, fearing to underline the signifi- cance of the last movement. The response of the critics was not especially favorable, with complaints in general that Mahler's undeniable brilliance of orchestral technique had outstripped the content of his work. But two young men with highly educated musical ears were entranced and excited, and they remained devotees of Mahler's music. Their names were Anton Webern and Alban Berg.

One reason for their enthusiasm is that here Mahler achieves his most successful balance between the claims of dramatic self-expression, which is always at the core of his music, and architectural formality. It is, in fact, one of the most striking things about the Sixth that it is at once deeply personal and classically formal. Three of the four movements are in the tonic key of A minor, the only exception being the slow movement (a symphonic tradition going all the way back to Haydn, though rarely maintained at the end of the nineteenth century). The sinister opening bars introduce the constantly recurring motives of the steady tramping in the bass and a dotted rhythm. The formal exposition (which is repeated, as in earlier classical symphonies) adds to these motives a melody opening with a downward octave leap and more marching, leading to the first explicit statement of the "motto" mentioned earlier.

Trumpe

Orchestral timbre plays as important a part as the change from major to minor in coloring this idea: three trumpets attack the A major chord fortissimo but die away to pianissimo as it turns to A minor; three oboes, entering on the same chord, grow from pianissimo to fortissimo , so that the heroic brassy sound of the major chord

*Alma had an intense dislike for Strauss and his bourgeois vulgarity, and she had no aversion to showing it. Strauss's absorption with his royalties and percentages was not conversational mat- ter congenial to the Mahlers.

24 gradually shifts to the expressive nasality of the double reed. A chorale-like theme in the woodwinds, punctuated by light pizzicato strings, leads to F major and the pas- sionate second theme (which, again according to Alma, was the composer's attempt to depict her), soaring in the violins and upper woodwinds.

After a full repeat of the exposition, the development gets underway with rich contra- puntal interchanges between the various thematic ideas. Among the most poetic pas- sages is the surprising appearance of cowbells playing against soft chords in the celesta and high, triple-piano tremolo chords in the violins. Mahler, the ardent alpin- ist, had no doubt heard the sound of cowbells many times echoing up to him through the clear mountain air; he considered them "the last earthly sounds heard from the valley far below by the departing spirit on the mountain top." But in the score he adds a careful footnote that "the cowbells must be handled very discreetly— in realis- tic imitation of a grazing herd, high and low-pitched bells resounding from the dis- tance, now all together, now individually. It is, however, expressly noted, that this

26 technical remark is not intended to provide a programmatic explanation." The first movement ends with the "Alma" theme in a temporarily consoling A major.

The middle two movements raise special problems. Mahler originally placed them in the order Scherzo— Andante. Later on he was persuaded that the thematic material of the scherzo was too similar to that of the first movement, and that the order of the middle movements should be reversed for greater variety. The symphony was origi- nally published with the score in that revised sequence. But Mahler himself was not permanently convinced, and apparently he changed his mind on this point repeatedly (sometimes even in the middle of a rehearsal). Arguments can be made either way, but in the end — as the critical edition of Mahler's symphony indicates — the composer finally decided for a reversion to the original order, though the publisher of the first edition never printed the insert sheet that was supposed to explain this fact. In any case, the present performances will use the order that was Mahler's original — and possibly final — choice.

The scherzo opens with an explicit reminiscence of the tramping bass of the open-

ing movement, and follows it with recollections of other material, now occasionally in a slightly parodistic mode (especially the sarcastic trills of the woodwinds). The Trio, marked Altvdterisch ("in an old-fashioned style"), features the oboe in a charming passage written in irregular rhythms. According to Alma's memoirs, this section "rep- resented the arhythmic games of the two little children, tottering in zigzags over the sand." Here again she found the ending to be ominous and foreboding, dying away enigmatically, as it does, into A minor and silence.

The Andante moderato, in E-flat major, provides the one real passage of consola- tion in the symphony (significantly, this occurs in the key that is farthest away from A minor), though the melodic material is akin to that of one of the Kindertotenlieder. By placing the Andante here, in third position, Mahler prepares a wonderful contrast for the beginning of the crushing finale. The slow movement ends softly and lyrically in E-flat; the finale begins in the relative minor of that key, C minor — one of Mahler's favorite expressive tonal relationships. A soaring violin theme, beginning with a rising octave, mirrors the falling octave of the first-movement theme. In this finale, Mahler establishes on an imposing scale a contrapuntal texture bringing together elements from throughout the symphony, especially the first movement. A development section builds toward a massive climax in D major, but just at the point of arrival the first hammer blow breaks off the cadence and the major shifts suddenly to minor for a new and still more urgent development. Building to a passage of pure, almost Palestrinian counterpoint in A, the climactic cadence to D is once again interrupted by the ham- mer stroke and a deceptive cadence onto B-flat. Another return to the introduction builds a climax in A major, which bids fair to hold to the triumphant conclusion of the symphony; this is the point where the third and final hammer stroke is called for

(even if it is omitted from a performance, as it is from the critical edition, the point is marked by the thunderous return of the marching timpani figure from the opening movement),* following which the only response is a complete collapse, as the brass and woodwinds sound once more the A minor triad — the conclusion of the motto figure— while the heavy timpani march dies away in sullen silence to a soft pizzicato A in the strings.

— Steven Ledbetter

*The fact that this point is so strongly marked by the timpani and the "motto" seems to be a

good reason for retaining the third hammer blow to complete the sequence; after all, the tragic

collapse occurs here with or without it (this can hardly be overlooked), and leaving it out is not so much a musical decision as a bow to Mahler's superstition.

The best place to start reading about Gustav Mahler is Paul Banks's superbly insightful article in The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians; it has been reissued in paperback, along with the Grove articles on Janacek, Richard Strauss, and Sibelius, in The New Grove Turn of the Century Masters. Next, a little larger, is the splendid short study by Michael Kennedy in the Master Musicians series (Littlefield paperback). Going by increasing size, we come to Kurt Blaukopf s biography, a read- able journalistic account (London), and Egon Gartenberg's, which is especially good on the Viennese milieu if somewhat trivial on the music (Schirmer paperback). Henry- Louis de La Grange's Mahler (Doubleday) is an extremely detailed biographical study. Only one volume has been published in English yet, although the second and third volumes are out in the original French. It will be the standard biographical study for many years. Donald Mitchell's perceptive and detailed study of the music now runs to three volumes with a fourth volume yet to come; the series consists of Gustav Mahler: The Early Years, Gustav Mahler: The Wunderhom Years, and Gustav Mahler: Songs and Symphonies of Death (California; the second volume available in paperback). The extremely detailed study is informed by a strong musical intelligence. Alma Mahler's autobiography And the Bridge Is Love (Harcourt Brace Jovanovich) and her Gustav Mahler: Memories and Letters (University of Washington paperback) offer essential source material, but they must be treated with caution and considerable skepticism. The most recent edition of the latter book provides important corrections by Donald Mitchell and Knud Martner. Martner has edited Gustav Mahler: Selected Letters (Far- rar, Straus and Giroux), which contains all of the letters published earlier in Alma

Mahler's less than reliable collection plus a good many more, though it is still a far cry from the complete edition of Mahler letters we need. Conductor Norman Del Mar has written a detailed study of many problematic issues relating to Mahler's Sixth (Eulenburg Books).
