  • Carl Orffs Hesperische Musik
    MATTHIAS JOHANNES PERNERSTORFER / WIEN Carl Orffs hesperische Musik Carl Orffs ‚Antigonae‘ (1940–49) und ‚Oedi pus der Tyrann‘ (1951– 58) nach Sophokles in der Übersetzung von Friedrich Hölderlin sowie der aischyleische ‚Prometheus‘ (1963–67) in der Originalsprache gehören zu den bedeutendsten Beiträgen zur musikalischen Rezeption der Antike im 20. Jahrhundert. Ich folge Stefan Kunze im Gebrauch der Bezeichnung Tragödien-Bearbeitungen für die genannten Bühnenwerke, da „kein musi- kalisches Werk (Vertonung) auf der Grundlage eines Tragödientextes … das Ziel [ist] …, sondern die [interpretative, Anm. d. A.1 ] Darstellung der Tragödie mit musikalischen Mitteln“.2 Es handelt sich um eine Form des Musiktheaters ganz eigener Art – „gleich weit entfernt vom Sprechtheater herkömmlicher Prägung wie von der Oper und von der … Bühnenmusik“.3 Auch wenn der Musikhistoriker Werner Schubert vor einigen Jahren dia- gnostizierte: „Daß es [Orff] … nicht um eine Rekonstruktion antiker Aufführungspraxis ging, muß man heute nicht mehr eigens betonen“,4 so möchte ich anmerken, daß die Tragödien-Bearbeitungen Orffs von vielen Philologen wie Theaterwissenschaftlern, die die musikwissenschaftliche Diskussion nicht mitverfolgen, wohl noch immer – sei es zustimmend oder ablehnend – als Rekonstruktionsversuche rezipiert werden. Der Grund dafür liegt in der zum Teil euphorischen Reaktion von zeitgenössischen Philologen, durch die Orffs Werke den Stellenwert von authentischen Wie- dergaben der altgriechischen Tragödien erreichten. Jahrzehntelang widmete sich Carl Orff den Tragödien-Bearbeitungen, wobei nicht von einem Weg des Komponisten in die Geistes- oder Musik- welt der Antike gesprochen werden kann. DieAntike diente ihm in Form —————————— 1 Zum Interpretationscharakter dieser „Darstellung der Tragödie“ s.u. 2 Kunze 1998, 547. 3 Schubert 1998, 405. 4 Schubert 1998, 403. 122 Matthias Johannes Pernerstorfer ihrer Texte als Medium, das er im Sinne von Höl derlins Antikerezeption mit Blick auf eine abendländische Gegenwart – deshalb ‚hesperisch‘ – gestaltete.

  • A Plutón Para Saxo Alto Y Piano
    Fémina Clásica inicia hoy su segunda andadura después del exitoso primer concierto el año pasado. Asunto de dos, concierto de todos, pretende ser una metáfora de la concordia y la ilusión con que se inician las relaciones entre dos personas, pero también como un reclamo a la responsabilidad que todos debemos tener ante las consecuencias que puedan generar las discordias y los actos de violencia en la pareja, mayoritariamente contra la mujer. La buena influencia de la música puede contribuir a que las relaciones entre dos personas no generen violencia; y con este propósito las compositoras e intérpretes que participan han querido contribuir para que algún día, más temprano que tarde, el placer de disfrutar la música reemplace al Día Internacional contra la Violencia de Género. Por eso, depende de cada uno de nosotros convertir el asunto de dos en un concierto de todos. El concierto fémina Clásica’09 y su grabación en directo para un disco promocional se enmarcan dentro de las actividades de apoyo al Día Internacional contra la Violencia de Género. 05 I II MARÍA DOLORES MALUMBRES: A Plutón (2007) para saxo alto y piano CRUZ LÓPEZ DE REGO: Tríptico cubano para soprano y piano (1994) Manuel Miján, saxo alto / Sebastián Mariné, piano Consejo, texto: Rafael Estenger Disfraz, texto: Raúl González de Cascorro SOFÍA MARTÍNEZ: La liberación del círculo para violín y viola (2009) * Y te busqué por pueblos, texto: José Martí Guacimara Alonso, violín / Alejandro Garrido, viola Celia Alcedo, soprano / Ana Vega Toscano, piano BEATRIZ ARZAMENDI: Prismas

  • Brecht's Antigone in Performance
    PERFORMANCE PHILOSOPHY RHYTHM AND STRUCTURE: BRECHT’S ANTIGONE IN PERFORMANCE BRUNO C. DUARTE FCSH UNIVERSIDADE NOVA DE LISBOA Brecht’s adaptation of Sophocles’ Antigone in 1948 was openly a political gesture that aspired to the complete rationalization of Greek Tragedy. From the beginning, Brecht made it his task to wrench ancient tragic poetry out of its ‘ideological haze’, and proceeded to dismantle and eliminate what he named the ‘element of fate’, the crucial substance of tragic myth itself. However, his encounter with Hölderlin's unorthodox translation of Antigone, the main source for his appropriation and rewriting of the play, led him to engage in a radical experiment in theatrical practice. From the isolated first performance of Antigone, a model was created—the Antigonemodell —that demanded a direct confrontation with the many obstacles brought about by the foreign structure of Greek tragedy as a whole. In turn, such difficulties brought to light the problem of rhythm in its relation to Brecht’s own ideas of how to perform ancient poetry in a modern setting, as exemplified by the originally alienating figure of the tragic chorus. More importantly, such obstacles put into question his ideas of performance in general, as well as the way they can still resonate in our own understanding of what performance is or might be in a broader sense. 1947–1948: Swabian inflections It is known that upon returning from his American exile, at the end of 1947, Bertolt Brecht began to work on Antigone, the tragic poem by Sophocles. Brecht’s own Antigone premiered in the Swiss city of Chur on February 1948.

  • Kodály and Orff: a Comparison of Two Approaches in Early Music Education
    ZKÜ Sosyal Bilimler Dergisi, Cilt 8, Sayı 15, 2012 ZKU Journal of Social Sciences, Volume 8, Number 15, 2012 KODÁLY AND ORFF: A COMPARISON OF TWO APPROACHES IN EARLY MUSIC EDUCATION Yrd.Doç.Dr. Dilek GÖKTÜRK CARY Karabük Üniversitesi Safranbolu Fethi Toker Güzel Sanatlar ve Tasarım Fakültesi Müzik Bölümü [email protected] ABSTRACT The Hungarian composer and ethnomusicologist Zoltán Kodály (1882-1967) and the German composer Carl Orff (1895-1982) are considered two of the most influential personalities in the arena of music education during the twentieth-century due to two distinct teaching methods that they developed under their own names. Kodály developed a hand-sign method (movable Do) for children to sing and sight-read while Orff’s goal was to help creativity of children through the use of percussive instruments. Although both composers focused on young children’s musical training the main difference between them is that Kodály focused on vocal/choral training with the use of hand signs while Orff’s main approach was mainly on movement, speech and making music through playing (particularly percussive) instruments. Finally, musical creativity via improvisation is the main goal in the Orff Method; yet, Kodály’s focal point was to dictate written music. Key Words: Zoltán Kodály, Carl Orff, The Kodály Method, The Orff Method. KODÁLY VE ORFF: ERKEN MÜZİK EĞİTİMİNDE KULLANILAN İKİ METODUN BİR KARŞILAŞTIRMASI ÖZET Macar besteci ve etnomüzikolog Zoltán Kodály (1882-1967) ve Alman besteci Carl Orff (1895-1982) geliştirmiş oldukları farklı 2 öğretim metodundan dolayı 20. yüzyılda müzik eğitimi alanında en etkili 2 kişi olarak anılmaktadırlar. Kodály çocukların şarkı söyleyebilmeleri ve deşifre yapabilmeleri için el işaretleri metodu (gezici Do) geliştirmiş, Orff ise vurmalı çalgıların kullanımı ile çocukların yaratıcılıklarını geliştirmeyi hedef edinmiştir.

  • Reading Indigenous and Mestizo Musical Instruments Reading
    Reading Indigenous and Mestizo Musical InstrumentsInstruments:: The Negotiation of Political and Cultural Identities in Latin America ROBERT NEUSTADT In this essay, I am exploring diverse examples of indigenous and mestizo musical instruments in order to underscore the manner in which these instruments can help us to comprehend the political negotiation and location of culture. When I say “cultural location” I refer not only to geographical place, but also to a people’s cultural values and traditions as situated within communities at particular moments in history. As for the “negotiation” of political identity, I am alluding to the process of transculturation through which different and sometimes contradictory elements of national, ethnic and/or social culture combine unevenly. Such negotiation is ongoing and subject to change; there exists no resolution. Strands of culture come to occupy dominant, prominent or subtle aspects of national identity through negotiation and these strands are visible in cultural representations such as music and dance. Although such processes of negotiation are inherent to all types of identity formation, they are particularly noteworthy in Latin American music because of the prevalence of cultural mestizaje. Consider the example of Guatemala’s national dance, the son . Ethnomusicologist Carlos Monsanto describes the dance as “a strange mixture of native rhythms and Spanish melodies” (“extrañas mezclas de ritmos autóctonos y melodías de corte español”). 1 In a sense, this process of blending can be heard in much music in Latin America. Music in the Americas constitutes hybrid mixtures of Hispanic, indigenous and African cultures. The sounds of culture—representations and representers of identity—have been transformed through intense social, cultural and political negotiations.
