Telemann hielt den Gelegenheitsmusiken für Hochzeiten, Geburtstage, Jubiläen Kontakt zu den Kollegen aufrecht, die er während seiner und festliche Tafeln.

  • Czech Music Culture in London and Post-1989 Developments in Czechoslovakia at the Time
    International Journal of Arts and Commerce ISSN 1929-7106 www.ijac.org.uk CZECH MUSIC CULTURE IN LONDON AND POST-1989 DEVELOPMENTS IN CZECHOSLOVAKIA AT THE TIME Markéta Koutná Univerzita Palackého v Olomouci, Filozofická Fakulta, Katedra muzikologie Czech Republic E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: The study deals with Czech-London musical relations, particularly Czech music culture in London within the context of cultural, social and political change in 1989. An analysis of the opera, chamber music, and symphonic production of Czech music in London between 1984 and 1994 identifies how and whether the Czechoslovak Velvet Revolution affected the firm position that Czech music culture had held in the capital of the United Kingdom. Key words: Czech musical culture, London, emigration, composers, the Velvet Revolution, 1989 The musical relations between the Czechs and London represent an important current issue. As the capital of the United Kingdom, London naturally takes the lead within the British cultural scene. With its population, budget, and institutional capacities, it is one of the world’s major social and cultural centres, and thanks to the high interest of London-based institutions in Czech music, it is also one of the world's top producers of Czech music. The current research examines how, if at all, the events of November 1989 influenced the position of Czech musical culture in London and the relationship between Czech and London musicians. I became interested in this issue while researching data for my dissertation on Czech musical culture in London.1 Using the specific example of interpretations of Czech opera, chamber music and 1 The study is a part of the student grant project IGA_FF_2015_024 Influence of the Velvet Revolution on Czech Musical Culture in London and all the data used in the study draw on the author’s research for her dissertation Czech Musical Culture in London Between 1984 and 1994.

  • November 2020 Chamber Music Series I
    Chamber Music Series Harmonies with Harpsichord | November 7th, 2020 Program Notes by Anna Norris HANDEL Suite in D major HWV 341 George Frideric Handel has always been a composer's composer. For all that he was popular with the public during his lifetime and is still popular (for at least a few of his works!) to the present day, it is the esteem that other great composers of the past hold him in that truly gives a glimpse of his character. "Handel was the greatest composer that ever lived," wrote Beethoven; "I would uncover my head and kneel before his tomb." Once, when Haydn received a compliment on the quality of his recitatives, he brushed it off with, "Ah, [the recitative] Deeper and Deeper in [Handel's] Jephtha is far beyond that!" Mozart said that "Handel understands affect better than any of us. When he chooses, he strikes like a thunder bolt." One of Handel's other notable qualities, which was perhaps better-understood by his fellow composers who experienced the pressures of producing works explicitly intended to please patrons, was his looseness and expansiveness with regards to which works could truly be said to have been written "by" him. Even in comparison to the norms of the era, Handel's propensity for borrowing and remixing both his own and others' works was prodigious; modern musicologist Richard Taruskin has summarized him as "the champion of all parodists." Copyright law, of course, was in its very infancy when Handel was an established middle-aged composer, so the idea of "intellectual property" tying one specific work to one specific person had no presence in his mind the way it does in our modern consciousness, with all of our pesky ideas of authorship and ownership.

  • The Musical Tradition of Central European Intengible Heritage
    The Musical Tradition of Central European Intangible Heritage Wojciech M. Marchwica The Fryderyk Chopin Institute, Warsaw / Institute of Musicology, Jagiellonian University, Krakow (Poland) Problem with Definition Discussing the question of European heritage – at both national and pan‑national levels – we often concentrate on the material that remains, like bricks, trees, urban resources, design and art, etc. Very often, we forget about the results of spiritual or emotional results of human think‑ ing, about the intangible heritage, including music, instead paying at‑ tention mostly to visible artefacts. According to romantic aesthetics like Wilhelm Schlegel and others, music is the highest of the fine arts just because it does not need any kind of media to be perceived, and does not need any material form to transcribe an artist’s idea into any lis‑ tener’s mind. I am afraid that at the moment we have lost such an under‑ standing of art and – under the reign of “picture civilisation” – it is no longer valid. However, it is worth noticing that people most often associ‑ ate the term “heritage” with tangible and immovable heritage (mostly “monuments”). Recent research (concerning the role of “affectivity” and “time” in cultural understanding and social memory) underlines the role of feelings and intangible traces of cultural memory within the process of social self‑definition.1 I would like to describe such a small example of (Central) European cultural heritage within the area of music – to show the increasing complications that arise when defining the borders of mu‑ sical heritage, but also to find some solutions – describing the specific case of the pastorella.

  • B (S20) LISTENING LOG: E—L PETER EBEN Laudes Earliest Work
    20 B♭ (S ) LISTENING LOG: E—L PETER EBEN Laudes Earliest work on the CD by Czech avant garde organist. Atonal, dissonant, but deals with recognizable motives and gestures. Somewhere there’s a Gregorian theme. There are four movements, the first is agitato. The second begins with extreme low and high pitches, loud rhythmic middle. The third has a weird mute stop. The fourth begins pianissimo, isolated notes on lowest pedals. (Mh17) Hommage à Buxtehude Good-humored toccata, then fantasy on a repeated note motif. Dissonant but light. (Mh17) Job Mammoth 43`organ work in 8 movements, each headed by a verse from Job. The strategy resembles Messiaen`s, but the music is craggier and I suspect less tightly organized. (1) Destiny: Job is stricken. Deep pedals for terror, toccata for agitation. (2) Faith: The Lord gives and takes away: Flutes sound the Gregorian Exsultet interrupted by terrible loud dissonance – agitation has turned to trudging, but ends, after another interruption, with muted Gloria. (3) Acceptance: After another outcry, Job is given a Bach chorale tune, “Wer nur den lieben Gott,” a hymn of faith – wild dissonances followed again by chorale. (4) Longing for Death: a passacaglia builds to climax and ends in whimpering ppp. (5) Despair and Resignation: Job`s questioning and outbursts of anger, followed by legato line of submission. (6) Mystery of Creation: eerie quiet chords and flutings, crescendo – rapid staccato chords, accelerando as if building anger – block chords fortissimo – solo flute question. (7) Penitance and Realization: Solo reed with ponderous pedal – chattering, hardly abject! – final bit based on Veni Creator.

Contact: [email protected] ‘For the sake of fulness of music in the choir'—the double bass at the Kroměříž court and the implications on performance practices1 [draft] Robert G. Rawson, Canterbury Christ Church University, UK The use of 16' string bass instruments in seventeenth- and early eighteenth-century repertoire has undergone several transformations since the early music revival—in earnest since the 1960s, when the movement began to make important inroads in the recording industry. In the early phase, the double bass was used in ensemble music more or less in the modern way, doubling the cello(s) throughout at 16' pitch. In the 1970s and 1980s the equation of ‘violone’ with ‘double bass’ was challenged—rightly, in many instances—and by the early 90s (or earlier) 16' basses had vanished from most HIP recordings of Lully and Purcell, for example.2 Given the large amount of attention given to notions of nomenclature and tunings early bassses in scholarly literature, this study focusses instead on the function of 16' bowed basses and argues for a reconsideration of their performance practice in light of the evidence from court of Carl Liechtenstein-Castelcorno at Kroměříž in Moravia, presented here.3 Moreover, there is also a tantalising link between Kroměříž and London.
