The National Shawmut Bank of Boston Member Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation [»] : SYMPHONIANA "Fidelio" in Beethoven's Vienna Reminiscence THE TROUSSEAU HOUSE OF BOSTON "FIDELIO" IN BEETHOVEN'S VIENNA The inclusion of Beethoven's Over- ture to Fidelio on this week's program may be counted among twenty-five per- formances of this work by the orchestras of America in recognition of a notable event. On Saturday evening, November 5, the Vienna Staatsoper, rebuilt in almost exact replica from the Opera House originally constructed in 1869, was re-opened with Fidelio. On April 27, the Austrian Chancellor Julius Raab spoke of the re-opening at a special meeting of Parliament. Chan- cellor Raab said: "On November 5 Beethoven's opera Fidelio will be presented in the newly built house on the Ringstrasse. It would be a splendid gift to the Austrian people if this immortal hymn to freedom and humanity by the greatest composer of all time could resound in a free and independent Austria. "The whole world would applaud if the immortal strains of the prisoners' song 'Hail to the day, hail to the hour for which we long have yearned' could be heard by a finally liberated Austria." The Staatsoper is dear to the Vien- nese for its beauty as a building, but still more for the memories it holds of innumerable great performances and great singers. The demolition of the Opera House by bombs in 1945 was looked upon as a major tragedy. All that remained of the structure was the Mm 1 outer shell, part of the stairways, loggia, and foyer. The task of rebuilding has been a principal post-war concern by the citizens of Vienna, to whom music is always of the first importance. shadow plaid teagown in The dedicatory performance will be a soil and crease resistant attended by visitors from all parts of the world.

They include the most elaborate stage mechanism of Europe. "In the auditorium the decorative effects will be unobtrusive and modern, although components will retain the gold, red and white of imperial times. After debate, it was decided to keep the loges which were so prominent a feature of the old house, with an ante- room for each. But part of the center box, once reserved for Franz Josef, will now be made available for radio and television technicians. "The new house, the national theatre of a republic, will be a director's dream and an opera-goer's pleasure place, and not an emperor's monument. No longer will occupants of cheaper seats be hidden behind pillars and under pointed arches, or denied access to balconies, public rooms and staircases once re- served for the Kaiser and the archdukes. For their convenience, elevators are being installed and a cafeteria and smoking room added. Some back seats will be equipped with headphones for the hard of hearing, and others with reading lamps for those who like to follow the score. The auditorium will be surrounded by three long promenade halls, while the third and fourth gal- leries will have open-air terraces facing the Ring and Opera streets. "The auditorium, the stage and some of the special rooms will be air condi- tioned, the air being drawn from the Imperial Palace gardens.

    Le Saxophone: La Voix de La Musique Moderne An Honors Thesis by Nathan Bancroft Bogert Dr. George Wolfe Ball State University Muncie, Indiana April 2008 May 3, 2008 Co Abstract This project was designed to display the versatility of the concert saxophone. In order to accomplish this lofty goal, a very diverse selection of repertoire was chosen to reflect the capability of the saxophone to adapt to music of all different styles and time periods. The compositions ranged from the Baroque period to even a new composition written specifically for this occasion (written by BSU School of Music professor Jody Nagel). The recital was given on February 21, 2008 in Sursa Hall on the Ball State University campus. This project includes a recording of the performance; both original and compiled program notes, and an in-depth look into the preparation that went into this project from start to finish. Acknowledgements, I would like to thank Dr. George Wolfe for his continued support of my studies and his expert guidance. Dr. Wolfe has been an incredible mentor and has continued his legacy as a teacher of the highest caliber. I owe a great deal of my success to Dr. Wolfe as he has truly made countless indelible impressions on my individual artistry. I would like to thank Dr. James Ruebel of the Ball State Honors College for his dedication to Ball State University. His knowledge and teaching are invaluable, and his dedication to his students are tings that make him the outstanding educator that he is. I would like to thank the Ball State School of Music faculty for providing me with so many musical opportunities during my time at Ball State University.

Sounding Nostalgia In Post-World War I Paris Abstract In the years that immediately followed the Armistice of November 11, 1918, Paris was at a turning point in its history: the aftermath of the Great War overlapped with the early stages of what is commonly perceived as a decade of rejuvenation. This transitional period was marked by tension between the preservation (and reconstruction) of a certain prewar heritage and the negation of that heritage through a series of social and cultural innovations. In this dissertation, I examine the intricate role that nostalgia played across various conflicting experiences of sound and music in the cultural institutions and popular media of the city of Paris during that transition to peace, around 1919-1920. I show how artists understood nostalgia as an affective concept and how they employed it as a creative resource that served multiple personal, social, cultural, and national functions. Rather than using the term “nostalgia” as a mere diagnosis of temporal longing, I revert to the capricious definitions of the early twentieth century in order to propose a notion of nostalgia as a set of interconnected forms of longing.
