  • The Rise in Sonatas and Suites for Unaccompanied Viola, 1915-1929 Introduction Ladislav Vycpálek’S Suite for Solo Viola, Op
    UNIVERISTY OF CALIFORNIA Santa Barbara The Viola Stands Alone: The Rise in Sonatas and Suites for Unaccompanied Viola, 1915-1929 A document submitted in partial satisfaction of the Requirements for the degree Doctor of Musical Arts in Music by Jacob William Adams Committee in charge: Professor Helen Callus, Chair Professor Derek Katz Professor Paul Berkowitz December 2014 The document of Jacob William Adams is approved. Paul Berkowitz Derek Katz Helen Callus, Committee Chair ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This research and writing would not have been possible without tremendous support and encouragement from several important people. Firstly, I must acknowledge the UCSB faculty members that comprise my committee: Helen Callus, Derek Katz, and Paul Berkowitz. All three have provided invaluable guidance, constructive feedback, and varied points of view to consider throughout the researching and writing process, and each of them has contributed significantly to my development as a musician-scholar. Beyond my committee members, I want to thank Carly Yartz, David Holmes, Tricia Taylor, and Patrick Chose. These various staff members of the UCSB Music Department have provided much needed assistance throughout my tenure as a graduate student in the department. Finally, I would like to dedicate this manuscript to my parents, David and Martha. They instilled a passion for music and an intellectual curiosity early and often in my life. They helped me see the connections in things all around me, encouraged me to work hard and probe deeper, and to examine how seemingly disparate things can relate to one another or share commonalities. It is thanks to them and their never-ending love and support that I have been able to accomplish what I have.

  • INTRODUCTION Gustav Mahler Was Early Recognized As One of the Greatest Conductors of His Time. Yet He Was Highly Controversial A
    INTRODUCTION Gustav Mahler was early recognized as one of the greatest conductors of his time. Yet he was highly controversial as a composer, both during his life and in the years after his death. In 1933, because of his Jewish roots, the Nazis prohibited his music both in Germany and in the occupied countries. His last refuge was then the Anglo-Saxon world. It is only in the sixties that little by little his music found its rightful place in concert repertories, thanks largely to recordings. Mahler was long accused of being "banal" because of the heterogeneous nature of his melodic material and "sentimental" because of his expressiveness, which was thought to be self- indulgent. Today, his use of stylized folk material seems to be one of the most original and forward-looking aspects of his style. For us, he is an exceptional composer, not just because of the breadth and power of his ten symphonies, but also because of his place in history, right at the junction of two centuries and two eras—the romantic and the modern. His evolution is fascinating, from the First Symphony of his youth, which doesn’t resemble any other music of his time, all the way to the Ninth, which is very close to the future masterpieces of Berg and Webern. Theodor Adorno said that Mahler was the first musician since Beethoven to have a "late Portrait taken in New York (1910) style". [Centre Documentation Musicale-BGM] Today, Mahler is one of the most popular composers of our time. There are countless recordings of his works.

  • Fritz and Adolf Busch and Rudolf Serkin Play Max Reger’S Music in the English-Speaking Lands
    Tully Potter (Hildenborough (Kent)/Großbritannien) Exporting Reger: Fritz and Adolf Busch and Rudolf Serkin play Max Reger’s Music in the English-speaking Lands Background For the brothers Fritz and Adolf Busch, the composer of their own time who loomed largest was Max Reger. Contact with this extraordinary char- acter was inevitable, especially for Adolf, because his violin teacher at the Cologne Conservatory, Bram Eldering, his mentor and future father-in-law Hugo Grüters and his composition teacher Fritz Steinbach were friends of Reger. In any case, Busch enjoyed his chamber and organ music at first acquaintance. A first encounter with this larger-than-life character came on 7 February 1905, when the composer visited the Conservatory: in the Great Hall, Reger played his C major Violin Sonata, Op. 72, with Eldering and his Variations and Fugue on a Theme of Beethoven, Op. 86, with the local pianist Henriette Schelle at the other keyboard.1 It was not long be- fore Reger’s influence was felt in Adolf Busch’s own compositions, and he remained a Reger disciple for the rest of his life. At this stage, Fritz Busch was not officially at the Conservatory, although he infiltrated the concerts when he could and absorbed what was going on through Adolf. For Fritz, Reger’s orchestral compositions would be the initial pull; but, as Adolf’s early sonata partner, he also became involved with the chamber music. The full revelation of Reger’s genius dated from October 1905, when Fritz was 15 and Adolf was 14: what overwhelmed the boys was the Sinfonietta in A, Op.

F. Peters Der Musikverlag C. F. Peters und seine „Arisierer“ Teil 1. Der Verlag Über die Leipziger Verlegerfamilie Hinrichsen und über die Bedeutung der Hinrichsens für die Stadt Leipzig und deren Musikkultur ist von berufeneren Autoren schon viel geschrieben worden. Weniger Beachtung wurde dagegen den „Arisierern“ des Verlags Gerhard Noatzke, Dr. Johann Petschull und Dr. h.c. Kurt Herrmann geschenkt. Die Ereignisse des Jahres 1939 und die Vorgeschichte dazu sollen hier deshalb nochmals rekonstruiert werden. Zunächst an dieser Stelle jedoch ein kurzer Abriss der Familien- und Verlagsgeschichte. Vor genau 210 Jahren – am 1.12.1800 - wurde in Leipzig das „Bureau de Musique“, der spätere Musikverlag C. F. Peters gegründet. Damit ist er „einer der ältesten und traditionsreichsten europäischen Musikverlage“, wie Norbert Molkenbur bereits 1988 anlässlich des Leipziger Kolloquiums „Jüdisches Musikschaffen und europäische Musikkultur“ schrieb.[1] Im Laufe der zwei Jahrhunderte hatte der Verlag wechselnde Besitzer. Es sei stellvertretend nur der Buchhändler Carl Friedrich Peters (1779-1827) genannt, der das Unternehmen 1814 erwarb. Ihm verdankt der Verlag bis heute seinen Namen. Am 21. April 1860 kaufte der Berliner Buch- und Musikalienhändler Julius Friedländer den Verlag.
