  • César Franck's Violin Sonata in a Major
    Honors Program Honors Program Theses University of Puget Sound Year 2016 C´esarFranck's Violin Sonata in A Major: The Significance of a Neglected Composer's Influence on the Violin Repertory Clara Fuhrman University of Puget Sound, [email protected] This paper is posted at Sound Ideas. http://soundideas.pugetsound.edu/honors program theses/21 César Franck’s Violin Sonata in A Major: The Significance of a Neglected Composer’s Influence on the Violin Repertory By Clara Fuhrman Maria Sampen, Advisor A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements as a Coolidge Otis Chapman Scholar. University of Puget Sound, Honors Program Tacoma, Washington April 18, 2016 Fuhrman !2 Introduction and Presentation of My Argument My story of how I became inclined to write a thesis on Franck’s Violin Sonata in A Major is both unique and essential to describe before I begin the bulk of my writing. After seeing the famously virtuosic violinist Augustin Hadelich and pianist Joyce Yang give an extremely emotional and perfected performance of Franck’s Violin Sonata in A Major at the Aspen Music Festival and School this past summer, I became addicted to the piece and listened to it every day for the rest of my time in Aspen. I always chose to listen to the same recording of Franck’s Violin Sonata by violinist Joshua Bell and pianist Jeremy Denk, in my opinion the highlight of their album entitled French Impressions, released in 2012. After about a month of listening to the same recording, I eventually became accustomed to every detail of their playing, and because I had just started learning the Sonata myself, attempted to emulate what I could remember from the recording.

  • Female Composer Segment Catalogue
    FEMALE CLASSICAL COMPOSERS from past to present ʻFreed from the shackles and tatters of the old tradition and prejudice, American and European women in music are now universally hailed as important factors in the concert and teaching fields and as … fast developing assets in the creative spheres of the profession.’ This affirmation was made in 1935 by Frédérique Petrides, the Belgian-born female violinist, conductor, teacher and publisher who was a pioneering advocate for women in music. Some 80 years on, it’s gratifying to note how her words have been rewarded with substance in this catalogue of music by women composers. Petrides was able to look back on the foundations laid by those who were well-connected by family name, such as Clara Schumann and Fanny Mendelssohn-Hensel, and survey the crop of composers active in her own time, including Louise Talma and Amy Beach in America, Rebecca Clarke and Liza Lehmann in England, Nadia Boulanger in France and Lou Koster in Luxembourg. She could hardly have foreseen, however, the creative explosion in the latter half of the 20th century generated by a whole new raft of female composers – a happy development that continues today. We hope you will enjoy exploring this catalogue that has not only historical depth but a truly international voice, as exemplified in the works of the significant number of 21st-century composers: be it the highly colourful and accessible American chamber music of Jennifer Higdon, the Asian hues of Vivian Fung’s imaginative scores, the ancient-and-modern syntheses of Sofia Gubaidulina, or the hallmark symphonic sounds of the Russian-born Alla Pavlova.

  • Barbara Barry Invisible Cities and Imaginary Landscapes 'Quasi Una Fantasia': on Beethoven's Op.131
    barbara barry Invisible cities and imaginary landscapes ‘quasi una fantasia’: on Beethoven’s op.131 I will put together, piece by piece, the perfect city, made of fragments mixed with the rest, of instants separated by intervals, of signals one sends out, not knowing who receives them. Italo Calvino.1 n his famous essay The hedgehog and the fox, Isaiah Berlin discusses a fragment from the ancient Greek poet Archilochus and interprets it in Ia rather unusual way.2 According to Archilochus, ‘The fox knows many things but the hedgehog knows one big thing.’ Clearly, the hedgehog’s 1. Italo Calvino: Invisible one big thing is the defence tactic of curling up in a ball, spikes out, to cities, trans. William Weaver repel an invader, although no one cares to spell out what the fox knows. (London, 1997), p.147. Nietzsche discusses how it Commentators in the past have taken Archilochus’s rather cryptic remark as is essential to forget as well an implicit criticism of fox-like behaviour, where people flit from one interest as to remember in order to retain one’s humanity. to another rather than focusing on a central plan of action. Hedgehogs don’t He says: ‘Imagine the come off any better in the assessment stakes as they put all their eggs in one most extreme example, the most extreme example of basket instead of having at least one version of Plan B. a human being who does Berlin, though, has a different, and more positive view of both hedgehogs not possess the power and foxes.

  • Guide to Repertoire
    Guide to Repertoire The chamber music repertoire is both wonderful and almost endless. Some have better grips on it than others, but all who are responsible for what the public hears need to know the landscape of the art form in an overall way, with at least a basic awareness of its details. At the end of the day, it is the music itself that is the substance of the work of both the performer and presenter. Knowing the basics of the repertoire will empower anyone who presents concerts. Here is a run-down of the meat-and-potatoes of the chamber literature, organized by instrumentation, with some historical context. Chamber music ensembles can be most simple divided into five groups: those with piano, those with strings, wind ensembles, mixed ensembles (winds plus strings and sometimes piano), and piano ensembles. Note: The listings below barely scratch the surface of repertoire available for all types of ensembles. The Major Ensembles with Piano The Duo Sonata (piano with one violin, viola, cello or wind instrument) Duo repertoire is generally categorized as either a true duo sonata (solo instrument and piano are equal partners) or as a soloist and accompanist ensemble. For our purposes here we are only discussing the former. Duo sonatas have existed since the Baroque era, and Johann Sebastian Bach has many examples, all with “continuo” accompaniment that comprises full partnership. His violin sonatas, especially, are treasures, and can be performed equally effectively with harpsichord, fortepiano or modern piano. Haydn continued to develop the genre; Mozart wrote an enormous number of violin sonatas (mostly for himself to play as he was a professional-level violinist as well).

  • Zorá String Quartet
    ZORÁ STRING QUARTET OREGON ARTS WATCH: “They play like well-seasoned pros tuned into one another for years, but with so much exuberant passion they practically fall out of their seats. They are the future of chamber music. These musicians deserve all the prizes they continue to win. They are definitely on the rise with a bright future.” THE NEW YORK TIMES: “From the first phrase, played with rich sound and wistful beauty, I knew this would be an eloquent and probing performance. The Zorá played with melting sound and affecting impetuosity. In Shostakovich’s String Quartet No. 9, an intense, fitful, brooding work, it was charming how these young musicians from Thailand, South Korea, China and Spain so strongly conveyed the very particular character of the hints of klezmer in the music.” OBERON’S GROVE (New York): How beautifully the Zora Quartet shaped this music. Today’s sublime performance was marked by technical assurance, clarity of individual voices, expressive finesse and opulent tone. THE CALGARY HERALD: “I cannot wait to hear the Zorá String Quartet again. Exquisitely well trained, supremely blended, and broadly intelligent in their playing, the Quartet makes you stop and listen very closely to their sound, fresh with sonic ideas in every phrase. What a great performance.” First Prize, 2015 Young Concert Artists International Auditions First Prize, 2015 Coleman National Chamber Music Competition Gold Medal, 2015 Fischoff Chamber Music Competition Sander Buchman Debut Prize • Friends of Music Concerts Prize (NY) Hayden’s Ferry Chamber Music Series Prize (AZ) • Paramount Theater Prize (VT) YOUNG CONCERT ARTISTS, INC.

  • The Birth of the String Quartet
    The Original Fab Four: The Birth of the String Quartet Welcome everyone. I’m Bob Greenberg, Music Historian-in-Residence for San Francisco Perfor- mances, and the title of this BobCast is The Original Fab Four: The Birth of the String Quartet.. Let us consider ensembles, and no, I’m not talking about smartly matching clothes and hand- bags but musical ensembles. When we think about vocal ensembles—I don’t know about you, but such thoughts occupy a really disproportionate amount of my waking day—we generally think in groups of four. For example, the basic and time-honored distribution of mixed-voice ensembles into soprano, alto, tenor and bass. Barbershop quartets and Gospel quartets. Such household name vocal groups as the Carter Sisters, the Chordettes, the Oak Ridge Boys, the Four Freshman, the Four Seasons, the Four Tops, the Mills Brothers, the Mamas and the Papas, Manhattan Transfer, and the Weavers; vocal quartets all. Why this prevalence of musical foursomes? And it’s not just vocal ensembles. The most com- mon configuration for a rock ‘n’ roll band or pop group is likewise a quartet, from the “Fab Four” (the Beatles), to Metallica, to the Who, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Led Zeppelin, Queen, the Doors, Pink Floyd, Dire Straits, Kiss, the Talking Heads, and Creedence Clearwater Revival. (Good god; I almost forgot to include Weezer and Megadeath.) In the world of so-called concert music, the string quartet has been the pre-eminent genre of chamber music for 250 years. Put simply, no other specific grouping of instruments has shown such longevity; and no other particular grouping of instruments has been lavished with such an extraordinary repertoire.
