  • Re/Defining the Imaginary Museum of National Music
    Re/Defining the Imaginary Museum of National Music The Case of Croatia Zdravko Blažekovic´ The historian is a product of history himself, and of his situation. However hard we may try, he cannot escape the molding of his mind by his experience and his surroundings.1 Music historiography in Croatia was throughout the twentieth century marked by the path established in the late nineteenth century by Franjo Ksaver Kuhač (1834-1911), who defined the criteria for inclusion of musicians into the national canon on the basis of their Croatian ethnic origin rather than presenting cultural circles in which they were active. In the twentieth century, the central influence on the definition of the canon of Croatian music history came from Josip Andreis (1909-1982) in his historical survey published in three Croatian editions (Razvoj muzičke umjetnosti u Hrvatskoj [The development of musical arts in Croatia], 1962; Povijest hrvatske glazbe [History of Croatian music], 1974, 1989) and two English editions (Music in Croatia 1974, 1982). Synthesizing the existing views about Croatian music, he constructed in his narrative a museum of Croatian and foreign com- posers active in Croatia, as well as composers born in Croatia but living abroad. Besides nationalistic traits inherited from Kuhač, a reason for emphasizing activities of composers working abroad were the political and cultural circumstances surrounding Andreis during the time of communist Yugoslavia, when Croatian connections with the Central European musical space were particularly appreciated, especially when the quality of composers living abroad surpassed the musical production within the country. Being a part of multina- tional Yugoslavia situated between the Eastern and Western cultural and religious spheres, Croatians at the time wanted to distance themselves from the cultures in Eastern Europe and felt the need to be reassured about their belonging to Slavia Latina.

    detail from F-Pn vma ms 1068 | hand of violinist Pierre Baillot | photo by Michael Vincent Introduction to Historical Musicology MUH 5684 Tuesday, Period 3 | Thursday, Periods 3–4 • MUB 232 • Spring 2020 Dr. Michael Vincent • [email protected] • MUB 351 • Thursday & Friday period 5 Please visit me during my office hours. I’m available to discuss our course or issues of professional development. Overview We explore critical approaches to the history of musicology as an academic discipline. The readings provide an overview of fundamental concepts and methodologies, and significant musicological writings representing style periods and conceptual issues. While musicologists traditionally focus on European music in the classical tradition, we will sample scholarship that focuses on a broad range of repertoires. Students will be encouraged to approach the discipline and its history critically. This critical approach will inform your personal work, giving you the tools to investigate your own topic in novel and insightful ways. Each student will choose a “lab rat” at the beginning of the semester: an artistic period, repertoire, performer, social movement, or composer. You will investigate your lab rat using the weekly methodology, diversifying your knowledge of your chosen subject. Your lab rat may grow in unexpected ways as the semester progresses. This course has prerequisites: successful completion of the complete undergraduate music history sequence; graduate student status; and successful completion of the music history entrance exam or the review course. Expectations ❖ Reading You’re expected to come to class having completed all reading on the syllabus for that week. You must be ready to engage with the materials.

A rich manuscript tradition has facilitated numerous studies ofAquitanian sacred music, but to date most previous research has focused on one particular facet of the repertoire, often in isolation from its cultural context. This study seeks to view Aquitanian musical culture through several intersecting sacred and secular concerns and to relate the various musical traditions to the region's broader societal forces.

  • Zur Rezeption Der Wiener Schule in Agram/Zagreb Und Kroatien
    Eva Sedak (Zagreb/Kroatien) = Zur Rezeption der Wiener Schule in Agram/Zagreb und Kroatien 1. Was ist die Wiener Schule? 1.1 Zeitliche Abgrenzungsversuche in Bezug auf den Wirkungskreis dieser ‚Schule‘, auch für die Zeit nach Arnold Schönbergs Übersiedlung(en) sowie nach seinem Tod. 1.2 ‚Schule‘ als Ideengeschichte. Die Gleichberechtigung der ‚Lehrerper- sönlichkeiten‘ von Alban Berg und Anton Webern. Die Verschieden- heit ihrer pädagogischen Ansätze und Ausstrahlungen in der ‚Neuzeit‘ und ihr eventueller Bezug zur ‚Postmoderne‘. 1.3 Zur Gefahr der Einengung des Begriffs ‚Wiener Schule‘ auf die tech- nische und anekdotische Ebene wie auch auf ästhetische Stereotype als von der ‚allgemeinen‘ Entwicklung abgesonderte Einzelsymbole. 2. Was ist Rezeption? 2.1 Methodologischer Ansatz in historischer Perspektive. Rezeptionsfor- schung als Datensammlung und Kritikerübersicht (vgl. Carl Dahl- haus) oder Rezeption als Transzendierungsprozeß. Positivismus oder Kritizismus? 2.2 Neubewertung mit Möglichkeit der Abwertung? Ist Schönberg passé? Ist die ‚Schule‘ passé? 2.3 Das Territorium (die Orte) – die Zeit. (Beides ist aus den oben auf- gestellten Untersuchungsprämissen abzuleiten und zu begründen.) Leider ist Frau Eva Sedak vor der endgültigen Ausarbeitung ihres Beitrags verstorben. Wir sind ihrer Zagreber Kollegin, Frau Nada Bezić, sehr dankbar, gemeinsam mit der Tochter von Frau Sedak sowohl den Artikel als auch die Anhang-Übersichten aus der Hinterlassenschaft der Autorin ‚gerettet‘ zu haben. Frau Bezić und Herrn Nikša Gligo danken wir zusätzlich für die kompetente Durchsicht der Unterlagen. Zu den Punkten „1. Was ist die Wiener Schule?“ und „2. Was ist Rezeption?“ hat Frau Sedak im Symposion gemäß ihren hier abgedruckten Stichworten frei gesprochen. Zur Rezeption der Wiener Schule in Agram/Zagreb und Kroatien 163 3.

  • Sanja Majer-Bobetko Hrvatska Akademija Znanosti I Umjetnosti ————
    sanja majer-bobetko hrvatska akademija znanosti i umjetnosti ———— BETWEEN MUSIC AND IDEOLOGIES: CROATIAN MUSIC CRITICISM FROM THE BEGINNING TO WORLD WAR II* roatian music criticism has not yet been completely researched, and all the re- C search carried out to date has been sporadic and unsystematic. As the Croatian lands were exposed to often aggressive Austrian, Hungarian and Italian politics until World War I and in some regions even later,1 Croatian music criticism was written in Croatian, German and Italian. At the beginning of the nineteenth century, Croatian was mainly the language of the lower classes. In 1843 the nobleman Ivan Kukuljević- -Sakcinski was the first to speak Croatian instead of Latin in the Croatian Parlia- ment. Yet Croatian only became the official language in 1847. To the best of our knowledge, the first ever piece of Croatian music criticism was written in 1826, in the literary and entertainment journal Luna, by an anonym- ous author writing in German.2 The musicologist Lovro Županović attributes that review to Franjo Ksaver (Serafin) Stauduar (b. 1825 or 1826; d. 1864), who was the newspaper’s publisher and editor. Stauduar wrote a report in the Wiener allgemeine Theaterzeitung on a performance of the first Croatian national opera, Ljubav i zlo- ba [Love and Malice], by Vatroslav Lisinski (1819–54), from 1846, ‘which may also mean that he was personally in charge of the theatre section in Luna’.3 The first music review concerned the five-act melodrama Viola by the German dramatist Jo- seph Auffenberg (1798–1857), with music by Georg (Juraj) Karl Wisner von Mor- * Part of this text results from research conducted within the project ‘Networking through music: Changes of paradigms in the “Long 19th Century” – from Luka Sorkočević to Franjo Ks.

You are responsible for regularly checking with the messaging system through MySJSU (or other communication system as indicated by the instructor). Course Description Course Description Often called the “Father of Modern Music,” composer Claudio Monteverdi (1567-1643) lived from the last stages of the Renaissance Humanism in the late sixteenth-century princely courts of Northern Italy to the beginnings of both absolutist monarchies and of the Baroque aesthetic in the seventeenth century that mark the beginning of the modern era. Over the course of his long life, Monteverdi explored the Renaissance musical constructions of selfhood in the madrigal, and well as championing the free treatment of dissonance for the musical expression (affect) of a text, and helped contribute to the newly formed genre of opera and the development of the Baroque style. Seminar discussions and presentations by course members will be held weekly, and will cover a selection of various aspects of Monteverdi’s work, from his Mantuan madrigals to his Venetian operas.
