S. Bach and his contemporaries. We are deeply indebted to Albert Riemenschneider and his wife, Selma, for having the uncommon wisdom and courage to establish this festival eight decades ago. For generations Baldwin-Wallace College, the people of Berea, the Greater Cleveland community, and music lovers from across the land have benefitted from the beauty and grandeur of the works of J. S. Bach as it has been so distinctively showcased in this enduring gift to the region. Our students have been preparing since September to perform for you this evening. Their work is reflective of the depth of talent and the quality throughout our Conservatory of Music. It also is indicative of the quality of teaching and learning that is taking place in every corner of our campus. You can feel the excitement at B-W each day. Earlier this year, we opened the Boesel Musi- cal Arts Center, a $17 million project that recognizes the leadership of B-W trustee Stephen Boesel ’68, and his wife, Jacquelyn, as well as several other wonderful donors whose names you will find on many of the spaces throughout the facility. This new construction and reno- vation has nearly doubled the area for teaching, learning, rehearsal and performance in our Conservatory of Music. The stunning multi-building complex brings to our campus sparkling new facilities that now match the quality of the programs they house. The dust you see to the east of Strosacker Union announces the construction of another new addition to the campus: a Welcome Center to greet prospective students and visitors to B-W. That building will open in early May and Karen and I are so proud and humbled that the Trustees have attached our names to the Center. As you look around, you also can see that this festival is stronger than ever. We are grateful to our patrons, subscribers, guests, benefactors and external partners whose support keeps this exceptional tradition alive and growing. Thank you for coming. Enjoy the wonderful music and the exceptional talents of our students, faculty and guest performers. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Dick Durst President 80th Annual Bach Festival 5 INTERIM CONSERVATORY WelcomeDIRECTOR’S WELCOME It has been eight decades since Albert and Selma Riemenschneider first achieved their profound vision for a Bach Festival at Baldwin-Wallace.

Bieito’s continued association with the company shows ENO’s commitment to highly theatrical and new interpretations of core repertoire. Following the success of his Carmen at ENO in 2012, described by The Guardian as ‘a cogent, gripping piece of work’, Bieito’s production of Fidelio comes to the London Coliseum after its 2010 premiere in Munich. Working with designer Rebecca Ringst, Bieito presents a vast Escher-like labyrinth set, symbolising the powerfully claustrophobic nature of the opera. Edward Gardner, ENO’s highly acclaimed Music Director, 2013 Olivier Award-nominee and recipient of an OBE for services to music, conducts an outstanding cast led by Stuart Skelton singing Florestan and Emma Bell as Leonore. Since his definitive performance of Peter Grimes at ENO, Skelton is now recognised as one of the finest heldentenors of his generation, appearing at the world’s major opera houses, including the Metropolitan Opera, New York, and Opéra National de Paris.

    Experiencing Music in the North German Enlightenment

    SENSITIVITY, INSPIRATION, AND RATIONAL AESTHETICS: EXPERIENCING MUSIC IN THE NORTH GERMAN ENLIGHTENMENT Kimary E. Fick, B.M., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY University of North Texas December 2015 APPROVED: Hendrik Schulze, Major Professor Peter Mondelli, Committee Member Christoph Weber, Committee Member Paul Leenhouts, Related Field Committee Member and Director of Early Music Studies Benjamin Brand, Director of Graduate Studies, College of Music James Scott, Dean of College of Music Costas Tsatsoulis, Dean of Toulouse Graduate School Fick, Kimary E. Sensitivity, Inspiration, and Rational Aesthetics: Experiencing Music in the North German Enlightenment. Doctor of Philosophy (Musicology), December 2015, 295 pp., 2 tables, 3 figures, 19 musical examples, references, 166 titles. This dissertation examines pre-Kantian rational philosophy and the development of the discipline of aesthetics in the North German Enlightenment. With emphasis on the historical conception of the physiological and psychological experience of music, this project determines the function of music both privately and socially in the eighteenth century. As a result, I identify the era of rational aesthetics (ca.1750-1800) as a music-historical period unified by the aesthetic function and metaphysical experience of music, which inform the underlying motivation for musical styles, genres, and means of expression, leading to a more meaningful and compelling historical periodization. The philosophy of Alexander Baumgarten, Johann Georg Sulzer, and others enable definitions of the experience of beautiful objects and those concepts related to music composition, listening, and taste, and determine how rational aesthetics impacted the practice, function, and ultimately the prevailing style of music in the era.

    THINKING IN SONG Prosody, Text-Setting and Music Theory in Eighteenth-Century Germany A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Martin Kuester January 2012 © 2012 Martin Kuester THINKING IN SONG Prosody, Text-Setting and Music Theory in Eighteenth-Century Germany Martin Kuester, Ph.D. Cornell University 2012 Eighteenth-century music theorists habitually used terms that were apparently im- ported from grammar, rhetoric and poetics. While historians of music theory have commonly described these words as reflecting metaphorical attempts to understand music by analogy with language, this study emphasizes their technical value, especially with respect to vocal music, which includes both domains. In the case of Johann Mat- theson, Johann Adolph Scheibe, Joseph Riepel and Friedrich Wilhelm Marpurg, the literal meaning of this common vocabulary can be recovered by viewing their general composition rules���������������������� in the previously une�amined������������ conte��������������������������������t of their theories for compos- ing te�t and music of vocal works. Chapter One questions the applicability of a ‘metaphor of music as a language’ to eighteenth-century musical thought and proposes a new framework, centered on what Scheibe and others considered �����������������������������������������������the origin of both music and language, prosody. Chapter Two e�amines Mattheson’s famous minuet analysis and concludes that a prosodic sub-discipline of music theory provided a vocabulary that applied, in ten- dency, to words and notes of vocal music, simultaneously. Chapter Three traces the interaction of prosodic parameters in the longer history of ‘musical feet,’ pointing out eighteenth-century theorists’ successful efforts to adapt or re-adapt their terminol- ogy to the practice of modern vocal composition.

    Musiker in Brandenburg

    Musiker aus Brandenburg Kurzbiografien der in der Sonder- sammlung „Musik aus Brandenburg“ der Musikbibliothek der Stadt- und Landesbibliothek Potsdam vertretenen Musiker Stand: September 2014 1 Musiker in Brandenburg ... gab und gibt es sicher einige. Aber bekannte und berühmte doch eher nicht! So lautet wohl die landläufige Meinung zum Thema Brandenburger Musiker. Trifft man auf ein interessierteres Publikum, so fallen Namen wie Quantz, der „Alte Fritz“ oder C. P. E. Bach, aber kaum ein Name aus der Gegenwart oder der jüngeren Geschichte. Beschäftigt man sich ein wenig mit dieser Materie und das ist heute dank Internet kein Problem, so stößt man recht schnell auf den einen oder anderen bekannten Namen und stellt fest, dass sie / er in Brandenburg geboren, gelebt oder gearbeitet hat oder es noch immer tut. So war die Schaffung der Sondersammlung „Musik aus Brandenburg“ willkommener Anlass, sich mit den Biografien der in dieser Sammlung vertretenen Musiker zu beschäftigen, um sie letztlich auch unseren Lesern zur Verfügung stellen zu können. Dabei stellten sich vor allem zwei Fragen: was macht den Brandenburger Musiker zum Brandenburger Musiker und wer ist ein Musiker? Während sich die zweite Frage recht schnell dahingehend beantworten ließ, dass zu diesem Personenkreis all jene gehören, die sich aktiv mit Musik beschäftigen, egal ob sie als Komponist, Interpret, Musikwissenschaftler oder Musikbuchautor tätig sind, war die Eingrenzung des „Brandenburger Musikers“ weitaus schwieriger. Letztendlich zählen jene Musiker zu diesem Kreis, die in Brandenburg geboren sind oder mehrere Jahre hier gelebt oder gearbeitet haben. In Ausnahmefällen aber auch diejenigen, bei denen z. B. die Uraufführung ihres Werkes innerhalb des Brandenburgischen stattfand.
