The conference took place at the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts in September 2017. Although only a few articles in this issue originated from papers presented at the conference (which have Music been significantly expanded and peer-reviewed) – while the remaining articles were written independently – all authors gathered here share a consideration of the current position of historical musicology as a scientific discipline in the first decades of the 21st century.

    Hochschule für Musik Abteilung Forschung und Entwicklung Zwischen Basel und Berlin (DDR) Der Musikforscher Harry Goldschmidt (1910-1986) Interpretationsforum mit Hanns-Werner Heister – in Zusammenarbeit mit der SMG Basel Dienstag, 15. Mai 2018, 19.00 Uhr Musik-Akademie Basel, Z. 6-301 (Hauptgebäude, 3. Stock) Eintritt frei Harry Goldschmidt hat ein ungewöhnlich vielgestaltiges wissenschaftliches Werk hinterlassen – und auch ein vielgestaltiges Leben gehabt. Dessen Konturen werden in dem Vortrag anhand der wichtigsten Stationen skizziert, samt dem auffällig reichen Fächer der im weiten Sinn populärwissenschaftlichen Aktivitäten, sowohl im Hinblick auf Gegenstände und Themen als auch im Hinblick auf Institutionen und Formen der Vermittlung zwischen Radio, Schallplatten-Edition und Gewerkschafts-Seminar. Vorgestellt werden einige der neuartigen, nach wie vor produktiven Ansätze Goldschmidts. Ihr innerer Zusammenhang liegt wohl im Konzept von Musik als spezifischer Sprache mit den komplexen Wechselwirkungen von Musik- und Wortsprache. Im musikalischen Kunstwerk zeigt sich Welt in einer vielschichtigen, vermittelten Einheit von Syntaktischem, Sigmatischem, Semantischem und Pragmatischem. Es erfordert eine multidimensionale Analyse des jeweils spezifischen Werks und seiner sozialen und biographischen Einbettung in das Zeitgeschehen, um Motivation, Gestalt und Funktion «explizit» zu verstehen, also sein «So-und-nicht-anders-Sein», sein Gewordensein und sein Wirken – daher auch die Renaissance der Biographie, als «Sozialbiographie» mit den beiden

    THE VIRTUOSO UNDER SUBJECTION: HOW GERMAN IDEALISM SHAPED THE CRITICAL RECEPTION OF INSTRUMENTAL VIRTUOSITY IN EUROPE, c. 1815–1850 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 Zarko Cvejic August 2011 © 2011 Zarko Cvejic THE VIRTUOSO UNDER SUBJECTION: HOW GERMAN IDEALISM SHAPED THE CRITICAL RECEPTION OF INSTRUMENTAL VIRTUOSITY IN EUROPE, c. 1815–1850 Zarko Cvejic, Ph. D. Cornell University 2011 The purpose of this dissertation is to offer a novel reading of the steady decline that instrumental virtuosity underwent in its critical reception between c. 1815 and c. 1850, represented here by a selection of the most influential music periodicals edited in Europe at that time. In contemporary philosophy, the same period saw, on the one hand, the reconceptualization of music (especially of instrumental music) from ―pleasant nonsense‖ (Sulzer) and a merely ―agreeable art‖ (Kant) into the ―most romantic of the arts‖ (E. T. A. Hoffmann), a radically disembodied, aesthetically autonomous, and transcendent art and on the other, the growing suspicion about the tenability of the free subject of the Enlightenment. This dissertation‘s main claim is that those three developments did not merely coincide but, rather, that the changes in the aesthetics of music and the philosophy of subjectivity around 1800 made a deep impact on the contemporary critical reception of instrumental virtuosity. More precisely, it seems that instrumental virtuosity was increasingly regarded with suspicion because it was deemed incompatible with, and even threatening to, the new philosophic conception of music and via it, to the increasingly beleaguered notion of subjective freedom that music thus reconceived was meant to symbolize.

  • Beethoven's Fourth Symphony: Comparative Analysis of Recorded Performances, Pp
    BEETHOVEN’S FOURTH SYMPHONY: RECEPTION, AESTHETICS, PERFORMANCE HISTORY 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 Mark Christopher Ferraguto August 2012 © 2012 Mark Christopher Ferraguto BEETHOVEN’S FOURTH SYMPHONY: RECEPTION, AESTHETICS, PERFORMANCE HISTORY Mark Christopher Ferraguto, PhD Cornell University 2012 Despite its established place in the orchestral repertory, Beethoven’s Symphony No. 4 in B-flat, op. 60, has long challenged critics. Lacking titles and other extramusical signifiers, it posed a problem for nineteenth-century critics espousing programmatic modes of analysis; more recently, its aesthetic has been viewed as incongruent with that of the “heroic style,” the paradigm most strongly associated with Beethoven’s voice as a composer. Applying various methodologies, this study argues for a more complex view of the symphony’s aesthetic and cultural significance. Chapter I surveys the reception of the Fourth from its premiere to the present day, arguing that the symphony’s modern reputation emerged as a result of later nineteenth-century readings and misreadings. While the Fourth had a profound impact on Schumann, Berlioz, and Mendelssohn, it elicited more conflicted responses—including aporia and disavowal—from critics ranging from A. B. Marx to J. W. N. Sullivan and beyond. Recent scholarship on previously neglected works and genres has opened up new perspectives on Beethoven’s music, allowing for a fresh appreciation of the Fourth. Haydn’s legacy in 1805–6 provides the background for Chapter II, a study of Beethoven’s engagement with the Haydn–Mozart tradition.

    The Practice and Politics of Children’s Music Education in the German Democratic Republic, 1949-1976 By Anicia Chung Timberlake A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Richard Taruskin, Chair Professor Mary Ann Smart Professor Nicholas Mathew Professor Martin Jay Spring 2015 Abstract The Practice and Politics of Children’s Music Education in the German Democratic Republic, 1949-1976 by Anicia Chung Timberlake Doctor of Philosophy in Music University of California, Berkeley Professor Richard Taruskin, Chair This dissertation examines the politics of children’s music education in the first decades of the German Democratic Republic. The East German state famously attempted to co-opt music education for propagandistic purposes by mandating songs with patriotic texts. However, as I show, most pedagogues believed that these songs were worthless as political education: children, they argued, learned not through the logic of texts, but through the immediacy of their bodies and their emotions. These educators believed music to be an especially effective site for children’s political education, as music played to children’s strongest suit: their unconscious minds and their emotions. Many pedagogues, composers, and musicologists thus adapted Weimar-era methods that used mostly non-texted music to instill what they held to be socialist values of collectivism, diligence, open-mindedness, and critical thought. I trace the fates of four of these pedagogical practices—solfège, the Orff Schulwerk, lessons in listening, and newly-composed “Brechtian” children’s operas—demonstrating how educators sought to graft the new demands of the socialist society onto inherited German musical and pedagogical traditions.

  • Introduction
    XXV Introduction Piano music plays a peculiar role in Eisler’s thought and work. full his art of constructing motivic and thematic relationships It was bound up with his beginnings as a composer and he and his ability to create contrapuntal combinations.3 This returned to it when he had the leisure to compose. But at the Sonata is essentially in the atonal idiom of the Second Vien­ same time it acted as a kind of negative foil to his “real” activ­ nese School, but its tonal residue (such as in the unresolved ities, namely his support for the workers’ movement and for a dominant seventh/ninth chord at the close of the main theme music that could be utilized in its struggle for a socialist society. in the first movement) reveals a trait that Reinhold Brinkmann Eisler’s piano music is to a certain extent that of the “private” sees as characteristic of the “future critical singer”: “If we don’t composer, and he made little fuss about it. The piano was his wish to dismiss its [i.e. the chord’s] isolation as a break in the instrument, and his playing is said to have possessed a great style, then it can hardly be understood as anything other than deal of charisma, despite his technical deficiencies.1 Eisler’s parodistic”.4 piano oeuvre is more extensive than that of his teacher Arnold The Second Sonata was composed shortly afterwards.

Besides occasional pieces, we also find works that though it was given the opus number “6”, it was neither per­ we can describe as being of major importance, either on ac­ formed nor published at the time.

  • Der Blick Auf Die DDR Und Ihre Musikwissenschaft „Von Außen“
    Hartmut Krones (Wien / Österreich) Der Blick auf die DDR und ihre Musikwissenschaft „von außen“ Über die Musikwissenschaft in der DDR ist seit der sogenannten „Wende“ schon so viel geschrieben worden, daß es sehr schwer erscheint, Neues hinzu- zufügen – denn auch der (mein) sogenannte(r) „Blick von außen“ kann im Prinzip nur etwas sehen, was sichtbar und daher zumindest für die meisten sichtbar ist. Vielleicht kann ich aber – zum Teil auch aus persönlichen Erleb- nissen heraus – einige Beobachtungen beitragen, die durch andere Aspekte bzw. Sichtweisen geprägt sind und solcherart doch Ergänzungen darstellen. Einschränkend sei nur festgestellt, daß ich vor allem über die im traditio- nellen Sinne „historische Musikwissenschaft“ in den beiden Deutschlands spreche; die „vergleichende“ (wie sie vor allem in Österreich hieß) sowie die ethnologische Musikwissenschaft, sehr oft aber auch (zumindest in Ös- terreich) die systematische bzw. systemische waren ja eher ideologiefrei, daher auch kaum politisch indoktriniert und zudem noch nicht so verbrei- tet („wichtig“) wie heute. Zuvor aber doch einige Bemerkungen zur allgemeinen Situation im Mu- sikleben, vor allem auf dem Gebiet der Komposition; denn was die „Pra- xis“, also den Bereich der Interpretation betrifft, waren selbstverständlich Sänger wie Theo Adam oder Peter Schreier ganz regelmäßig in Österreich, und auch die Dresdener Staatskapelle konnte man in Wien regelmäßig hö- ren. DDR-Komponisten kamen hingegen selten zum Zug, aber weniger aus politischen Gründen, sondern weil auch die österreichische Szene jene Ei- genschaften aufwies, die Lars Klingberg zu Beginn dieser Konferenz aus dem Gutachten von Gerd Schönfelder zitierte: Die Komponisten führten sich auch in Österreich „militant“ auf – militant für die Durchsetzung des eigenen Œuvres; und sie waren auch unversöhnlich – unversöhnlich mit an- deren ästhetischen Ausrichtungen.

The difficulties of the task lie in the fact that data are at once too sparse and too abundant. Owing to the incompleteness of the collection of playbills in the I,iver- pool Free Library, there are many gaps in the story of the I/iverpool Theatres which it is weU-nigh impossible to fill- This is all the more regrettable as the remoter period in the annals of our local drama is much more individual and char- acteristic than the record of the last half century.

AUTHOR: Kirsten Feldner, B.A. (McMaster University) SUPERVISOR: Doctor Catherine Annette Grisé NUMBER OF PAGES: ix, 107. ii Lay Abstract This thesis pairs an analysis of meeting minutes, newspaper articles, song-sheets, and theatrical programmes from London’s Victorian music halls with contemporary music hall scholarship and studies of censorship to add to the discussion of the genre’s “end” or “death.” Using the work of Judith Butler, this thesis is divided into a study of how censorship transformed the music hall’s landscape, content, and culminating performance from its onset. As a result, this thesis argues that the controlling factors which shaped the genre led to what other music hall scholars have considered its end. By identifying the styles and modes of censorship used in the evolution of the English music hall genre, and in in-period methods of resistance to social control, this project suggests the radical potential of the music hall form as a contemporary style of theatre.
