  • Purcell, Handel, Haydn, and Mendelssohn Anniversary Reflections
    Purcell, Handel, Haydn, and Mendelssohn Anniversary Reflections March 2009 Martin Adams Trinity College, Dublin "That what took least, was really best": tensions between the private and public aspects of Purcell's compositional thought. Roger North remembered that Purcell "used to mark what did not take for the best musick, it being his constant observation that what took least, was really best." Purcell's penchant for complexity has been discussed widely; and Alan Howard has recently said that aspects of the composer's practice set him "somewhat apart from contemporary composers and, even more importantly, from the expectations of his audiences." They also set him somewhat apart from the other composers in this conference. My paper will argue that this apartness is rooted in a tension between expectations - those towards himself and towards his paying audience. It is a tension between the private and the public, the private epitomised in music of a "highbrow" kind (whatever its intended audience), and the public epitomised in his theatre music. Via a comparison of works private (especially songs from Harmonia Sacra) and public (mainly theatre songs), the paper will define the thinking and practice that differentiates the two spheres. It will also suggest that the private sphere was so deeply embedded that Purcell's reputation inevitably rests on a small number of works. In that respect too, he makes a revealing comparison with the other composers in this conference. Maria Teresa Arfini Milan and Aosta University Music as Autobiography: Mendelssohn between Beethoven and Schumann There are some compositions where Mendelssohn shows actually autobiographical traits.
