SIGNED: Elsa Kate Nichols 4 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The path to this final step in my education has been long and arduous, but it has, above all else, been extremely fulfilling. Brian Luce has been a wonderful teacher and mentor, and he has made me the musician and professional that I am today, providing ample opportunities for development and preparation for the career I am about to enter. For that, I am extremely grateful. My committee members, William Dietz and Daniel Katzen, have also been helpful, providing sage advice and sharing their life experiences with me. I will always appreciate their willingness to see me to the end of my degree, despite having already retired. Carrol McLaughlin served on my committee and went above and beyond to help me finish my degree. She always pushed me to be the best I could be, and she was one of the strongest people I have ever known. She has inspired me so much; I am fortunate to have had her as a role model, and she is greatly missed. I hope I can carry her memory, strength, mentorship, and love for everyone and everything throughout my career and other aspects of life. Throughout my research for this project, so many people have stepped in to help me. Leonard Bernstein’s daughter, Jamie Bernstein, was very helpful and supportive, providing much insight. Hannah Webster from the Bernstein Organization was also a great source of information and guidance. All of the statistical information provided at the end of this document would not have been available had it not been for some extremely generous orchestra librarians: Verena Alves from the Berliner Philharmoniker, Andria Hoy from The Cleveland Orchestra, Karen Schnackenberg from the Dallas 5 Symphony, Katrin Böhnisch from the Sächsische Staatskapelle Dresden, Libby Rice from the London Symphony Orchestra, Selena Chau and Rosa Mazon from the Los Angeles Philharmonic, Krystel Nadeau from the Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal, Elizabeth Schnobrick from the National Symphony Orchestra, and Carolyn Friedrich from the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra. Lastly, I could not have done this without the strength and support from my family: my dad, Thomas H. Nichols, Jr., my mom, Kimberly L. Nichols, and my brother, David L. Nichols. You all have been my rock, and you will always be my favorite audience members. 6 DEDICATION This document is dedicated to my parents, Thomas H. Nichols, Jr. and Kimberly L. Nichols. Thank you for your years of unconditional love and support; for the hours of driving to auditions and lessons; for the enormous amount of financial support, including that which has helped me get the beautiful instruments I feel privileged to play; for constantly proofreading every piece of my writing; for being my number one fans and audience members; and for so many other things that I haven’t listed. I love you both more than words can say. 7 TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF MUSICAL EXAMPLES ..................................................................................... 9 TABLES ........................................................................................................................... 10 ABSTRACT ...................................................................................................................... 11 CHAPTER ONE: INTRODUCTION ............................................................................... 13 Review of the Scholarly Literature ............................................................................... 14 CHAPTER TWO: LEONARD BERNSTEIN’S LIFE AND MUSICAL INFLUENCE/OUTPUT ................................................................................................... 19 Biography ...................................................................................................................... 19 Multi-Faceted Career .................................................................................................... 29 Compositional Style ...................................................................................................... 31 Overview of Compositional Output .............................................................................. 35 CHAPTER THREE: HALIL ............................................................................................. 39 Background/Dedication ................................................................................................ 39 Major Performances ...................................................................................................... 40 Critical Reviews ............................................................................................................ 42 CHAPTER FOUR: ANALYSIS ....................................................................................... 46 Serial Employment ........................................................................................................ 46 Quotations ..................................................................................................................... 55 Functional Harmonic Usage ......................................................................................... 60 Form .............................................................................................................................. 63 CHAPTER FIVE: CONCLUSION .................................................................................. 73 APPENDIX A: CORRESPONDENCE SENT TO SURVEYED ORCHESTRAS ......... 75 APPENDIX B: ORCHESTRA SURVEY OF 20TH CENTURY FLUTE CONCERTOS PERFORMED ................................................................................................................... 76 APPENDIX C: ORCHESTRA SURVEY OF 20TH CENTURY FLUTE CONCERTOS PERFORMED (MAY 1981–2018) ................................................................................... 80 APPENDIX D: ORCHESTRA SURVEY OF PERFORMANCES OF BERNSTEIN’S HALIL ............................................................................................................................... 82 APPENDIX E: ORCHESTRA SURVEY OF 20TH CENTURY FLUTE CONCERTOS PERFORMED (OCT. 1990–2018) ................................................................................... 83 8 APPENDIX F: 20TH CENTURY AMERICAN AND EUROPEAN FLUTE CONCERTOS (BY ORIGIN AND DATE) ..................................................................... 84 APPENDIX G: 20TH CENTURY AMERICAN AND EUROPEAN FLUTE CONCERTOS (ALPHABETICAL) ................................................................................. 92 APPENDIX H: PERMISSION TO REPRINT COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL .............. 99 BIBLIOGRAPHY ........................................................................................................... 101 9 LIST OF MUSICAL EXAMPLES Musical Example 4.1.

  • Leonard Bernstein
    TuneUp! TuneUSaturday, October 18th, 2008 p! New York Philharmonic Young People’s Concert® elcome to a new season of Young People’s Concerts! Throughout history, there have been special times when music flowered in specific cities—Capitals of Music—that for a while W became the center of the musical world. Much of the music we know today comes from these times and places. But how did these great flowerings of music happen? That’s what we’ll find out this year as we discover the distinctive sounds of four of these Capitals. And where better to start than right here in New York? After the Second World War, our city became a cultural capital of the world. Leonard Bernstein—who became Music Director of the New York Philharmonic 50 years ago this fall—defined music in New York in his roles as composer, conductor, and teacher. So what was it like in New York back then? Let’s find out from a child of that time—Leonard Bernstein’s BERNSTEIN’S NEW YORK daughter Jamie! THE PROGRAM: BERNSTEIN “The Great Lover” from On the Town COPLAND “Skyline” from Music for a Great City (excerpt) GERSHWIN “I Got Rhythm” from Girl Crazy BERNSTEIN “America” from West Side Story Suite No. 2 COPLAND Fanfare for the Common Man Jamie Bernstein, host BERNSTEIN On the Waterfront Symphonic Suite (excerpt) Delta David Gier, conductor SEBASTIAN CURRIER “quickchange” from Microsymph Tom Dulack, scriptwriter and director BERNSTEIN Overture to Candide 1 2 3 5 4 CAN YOU IDENTIFY EVERYTHING IN AND AROUND LEONARD BERNSTEIN’S NEW YORK STUDIO?

Lenny, as I knew him, the great musician, the 20th century giant with whom, in 1986, I conceived the Academy, was one of the first people with whom I engaged in dialogue about “this thing,” as he called it, just before proposing that we call our “thing” the Academy for the Love of Learning. “Why that name?”, I asked – and he said: “because you believe that if we truly open ourselves to learning, it will liberate us and bring us home, individually and collectively. So, the name is perfect, because the acronym is ALL!” I resisted it at first, but soon came to realize that the name indeed was perfect. This and other prescient dialogues have helped us get to where we are today – a thriving, innovative organization.

The comparison and understanding of how the piano works relate to the orchestral manifestations validates the independence of the piano works, provides new insights into Bernstein’s compositional process, and presents several significant issues of notation and interpretation that can influence the performance practice of both musical versions.

  • The Recordings
    Appendix: The Recordings These are the URLs of the original locations where I found the recordings used in this book. Those without a URL came from a cassette tape, LP or CD in my personal collection, or from now-defunct YouTube or Grooveshark web pages. I had many of the other recordings in my collection already, but searched for online sources to allow the reader to hear what I heard when writing the book. Naturally, these posted “videos” will disappear over time, although most of them then re- appear six months or a year later with a new URL. If you can’t find an alternate location, send me an e-mail and let me know. In the meantime, I have provided low-level mp3 files of the tracks that are not available or that I have modified in pitch or speed in private listening vaults where they can be heard. This way, the entire book can be verified by listening to the same re- cordings and works that I heard. For locations of these private sound vaults, please e-mail me and I will send you the links. They are not to be shared or downloaded, and the selections therein are only identified by their numbers from the complete list given below. Chapter I: 0001.
