Robert Schumann (Born at Zwickau, June 8, 1810; died at Endenich, July 29, 1856.) In October, 1844, Schumann left Leipsic, where he had lived for about fourteen years. He had given up the editorship of the Neue Zeitschrift in July. He had been a professor of pianoforte playing and composition at the Leipsic Conservatory from April, 1843; but he was a singularly reserved man, hardly fitted for the duties of a teacher, and he was without disciples. He was in a highly nervous condition, so that his physician said he must not hear too much music. A change of scene might do him good. Schumann therefore moved to Dresden. "Here," he wrote in 1844, "one can get back the old lost longing for music; there is so little to hear. This suits my condition, for I still suffer very much from my nerves, and everything affects and exhausts me directly." He lived a secluded life. He saw few, and he talked little. In the early eighties they still showed in Dresden a restaurant frequented by him, where he would sit alone hours at a time, dreaming day-dreams. He tried sea-baths. In 1846 he was exceedingly sick, mentally and bodily, "He observed that he was unable to remember the melodies that oc- curred to him when composing, the effort of invention fatiguing his mind to such a degree as to impair his memory." When he did work, he applied himself to contrapuntal problems. The Symphony in C major, known as No. 2, but really the third, for the one in D minor, first written, was withdrawn after perform- ance, remodelled, and finally published as No. 4,—was composed in the years 1845 and 1846. Other works of those years are four fugues for pianoforte, studies and sketches for pedal piano, six fugues on the name of Bach for organ, intermezzo, rondo, and finale to "Fantasie" (published as Concerto, Op. 54), five songs by Burns for mixed chorus, four songs for mixed chorus, Op. 59, and a canon from Op. 124. The symphony was first played at the Gewandhaus, Leipsic, under Mendels- sohn's direction, on November 5, 1846.* The first performance in The first part of the programme included the overture, an aria, and the finale of Act II. of "Euryanthe" and the overture and finale of Act II. of "William Tell." The latter overture made such a sensation under Mendelssohn's direction that it was imperiously redemanded. The symphony, played from manuscript, pleased very few. Some went so far as to say that the demand for a second performance of Rossini's overture was a dehberate reflection on Schumann, whose symphony was yet to be heard. •* The Easter Horn." Music by S.

Ballard ^ Sons Costumers and Habit flakers 256 Boylston Street, Boston 1660 Boston was at a concert of the Harvard Musical Association, March i, 1866." The Philharmonic Society of New York performed it as early as January 14, 1854. Schumann wrote from Dresden on April 2, 1849, to Otten,* a writer and conductor at Hamburg, who had brought about the performance of the symphony in that city: "I wrote the symphony in December, 1845, when I was still half-sick. It seems to me one must hear this in the music. In the Finale I first began to feel myself; and indeed I was much better after I had finished the work. Yet, as I have said, it recalls to me a dark period of my life. That, in spite of all, such tones of pain can awaken interest, shows me your sympathetic inter- est. Everything you say about the work also shows me how thor- oughly you know music; and that my melancholy bassoon in the adagio, which I introduced in that spot with especial fondness, has not escaped your notice, gives me the greatest pleasure." In the same letter he expressed the opinion that Bach's Passion according to John was more powerful and poetic work than his Passion according to Matthew. And yet when Jean J. H. Verhulst of the Hague (18 16-91) visited Schumann in 1845, and asked him what he had written that was new and beautiful, Schumann answered he had just finished a new sym- phony. Verhulst asked him if he thought he had fully succeeded. Schumann then said: "Yes, indeed, I think it's a regular Jupiter." * * * There is a dominating motive, or motto, which appears more or less prominently in three of the movements. This motto is proclaimed at the very beginning, Sostenuto assai, 6-4, by horns, trumpets, alto trombone, pianissimo, against flowing counterpoint in the strings. This motto is heard again in the finale of the following allegro, near the end of the scherzo, and in the concluding section of the finale. (It may also be said here that relationship of the several movements is further founded by a later use of other fragments of the introduction Georg Dietrich Otten, bom at Hamburg in 1806, showed a marked talent for drawing, which he studied as well as the pianoforte and the organ; but he finally devoted himself to music, and became a pupil of Schneider at Dessau (1828-32). He taught at Hamburg, and led the concerts of the Hamburg Musik-Verein, which he founded, from 1855 to 1863. In 1883 he moved to Vevey, Switzerland.

César Franck’ın Prelüd, Koral ve Füg eserinin incelenmesi, Yüksek Lisans Sanat Çalışması Raporu, Ankara, 2015. 19. yüzyılın ikinci yarısında Fransız Müziği’nin önde gelen isimlerinden ve usta orgcularından biri olan César Franck, piyanoda benimsediği org anlayışı ile döneminin en ilgi çekici bestecilerindendir. Piyano enstrümanıyla org etkisi yarattığı eserleri ile Debussy ve Ravel gibi diğer öncü bestecileri etkiler. Eserlerinde, enstrümantal fikirleri polifonik anlayış ile birleştirerek yoğun bir atmosfer oluşturur. “Prelüd, Koral ve Füg”, zengin armonik yapısı, piyanonun her türlü imkanının sonuna kadar kullanılması, Franck’ın duyumsal ve dindar kişiliğinden gelen mistik öğeleri sağlam bir form anlayışıyla dengelemesi nedeniyle piyano literatürünün anlaşılması en zor ve değerli eserlerinden biridir. Bu çalışmada, bestecinin hayatı, eserleri ve içinde bulunduğu kültürel ortamla ilgili bilgi verilmiş, esere adını veren üç form ve tekrarlı biçim ayrıntılı olarak açıklanmıştır. Son bölümde de eserin form analizi yapılmıştır. Anahtar Sözcükler Franck, Prelüd, Koral, Füg, Tekrarlı Biçim. v ABSTRACT GENÇGÖNÜL, Begümhan.
