The venture was so successful that the promoters incorporated the Berkshire Symphonic Festival and repeated the experiment during the next summer. The Festival Committee then invited Serge Koussevitzky and the Boston Symphony Orchestra to take part in the following year's concerts. The orchestra's Trustees accepted, and on August 13, 1936, the Boston Symphony Orchestra

  • Carl Orffs Hesperische Musik
    MATTHIAS JOHANNES PERNERSTORFER / WIEN Carl Orffs hesperische Musik Carl Orffs ‚Antigonae‘ (1940–49) und ‚Oedi pus der Tyrann‘ (1951– 58) nach Sophokles in der Übersetzung von Friedrich Hölderlin sowie der aischyleische ‚Prometheus‘ (1963–67) in der Originalsprache gehören zu den bedeutendsten Beiträgen zur musikalischen Rezeption der Antike im 20. Jahrhundert. Ich folge Stefan Kunze im Gebrauch der Bezeichnung Tragödien-Bearbeitungen für die genannten Bühnenwerke, da „kein musi- kalisches Werk (Vertonung) auf der Grundlage eines Tragödientextes … das Ziel [ist] …, sondern die [interpretative, Anm. d. A.1 ] Darstellung der Tragödie mit musikalischen Mitteln“.2 Es handelt sich um eine Form des Musiktheaters ganz eigener Art – „gleich weit entfernt vom Sprechtheater herkömmlicher Prägung wie von der Oper und von der … Bühnenmusik“.3 Auch wenn der Musikhistoriker Werner Schubert vor einigen Jahren dia- gnostizierte: „Daß es [Orff] … nicht um eine Rekonstruktion antiker Aufführungspraxis ging, muß man heute nicht mehr eigens betonen“,4 so möchte ich anmerken, daß die Tragödien-Bearbeitungen Orffs von vielen Philologen wie Theaterwissenschaftlern, die die musikwissenschaftliche Diskussion nicht mitverfolgen, wohl noch immer – sei es zustimmend oder ablehnend – als Rekonstruktionsversuche rezipiert werden. Der Grund dafür liegt in der zum Teil euphorischen Reaktion von zeitgenössischen Philologen, durch die Orffs Werke den Stellenwert von authentischen Wie- dergaben der altgriechischen Tragödien erreichten. Jahrzehntelang widmete sich Carl Orff den Tragödien-Bearbeitungen, wobei nicht von einem Weg des Komponisten in die Geistes- oder Musik- welt der Antike gesprochen werden kann.

  • Hanae Mori Velvet Shift Dress
    Hanae Mori Target Dress, ca.1970. Ryerson FRC2009.03.001AB. Donated by Jocelyn Ryles. HANAE MORI VELVET SHIFT DRESS By Dr. Ingrid Mida This Hanae Mori shift dress with stand collar, short sleeves and belt is made and Kimberly Leckey out of velvet and is fully lined in black polyester satin. The design on the front of the dress is an abstracted pink and red circular target pattern. The design May 16, 2014 on the back of the dress is an abstracted motif of black and gray. One sleeve is in black velvet and the other sleeve is a repeat of the target pattern. The dress closes with a back metal zipper and two hooks and eyes at the collar. This Hanae Mori velvet shift dress with belt (FRC2009.03.001 A+B) was donated to the Ryerson Fashion Research Collection in 2009 by Jocelyn Ryles. No other provenance information was obtained at the time of donation. The following description and analysis was written by Ryerson School of Fashion student Kimberly Leckey and was revised and edited by Collection Coordinator Ingrid Mida. It should be noted that Kimberly Leckey’s interpretation of this dress represents only one of many possibilities. This dress might also be used to consider a range of topics in a scholarly approach to fashion research including: the design practices of Hanae Mori over her career, the nature of Japanese designers on western fashion, or perhaps the psychology reflected in the styles and silhouettes of 1970s fashions for women. 1 Hanae Mori DESCRIPTION Target Dress, The dress is sewn together with black polyester thread and the inside seams ca.1970.

    Soundscapes – Würzburger Klangräume von einer studentischen Projektgruppe * unter Leitung von Hansjörg Ewert und Guido Fackler Musikforschung und Urbanität Städte sind schon immer Sammelbecken unterschiedlicher Kulturen. Was bei den vielen Einflüssen an einigender Tradition verloren geht, wird aufgewogen durch Vielfalt und Komplexität. Und nicht erst heutzutage definieren sich Städte trotz Sparzwängen über ihre Kultur. Die wissenschaftliche Beschäfti- gung mit Musik konzentriert sich jedoch meist auf die Spezifika homogener Einheiten: Dörfer, sog. ‚Peer-Groups‘ oder die klassische Hochkultur. Denk- modelle wie ‚Wiener Klassik‘ reduzieren das komplexe Netzwerk einer Stadt auf eine fragwürdige Heroengeschichte. Oftmals geht die traditionelle Regio- nalgeschichte ähnlich vor, die nach dem Vorbild der großen Meister (z.B. Richard Wagner in Würzburg) die kleinen lokalen Meister (etwa Giovanni Benedetto Platti) modelliert. Nimmt man aber umgekehrt eine Stadt zum Ausgangspunkt, geraten der jeweils populäre Habitus verschiedener Musikkulturen und vor allem die Be- nutzer von Musik, die musizierenden Laien und das Publikum, in den Mittel- punkt des Interesses. Ästhetische Wertungen treten hinter die Fragen nach der * Das Ausstellungsteam setzte sich aus folgenden Arbeitsgruppen zusammen: Geistliche Musik: Judith Kestler, Constanze Köppe, Tatjana Scheibner, Katja Wächter Höfisches und bürgerliches Musikleben: Beate Knauer, Theresa Ott, Carola Schauerte, Sabine Vix Mu- sikausbildung: Irene Reuter, Thomas Stollberger, Stephan Ziron Musikfeste:

  • Brecht's Antigone in Performance
    PERFORMANCE PHILOSOPHY RHYTHM AND STRUCTURE: BRECHT’S ANTIGONE IN PERFORMANCE BRUNO C. DUARTE FCSH UNIVERSIDADE NOVA DE LISBOA Brecht’s adaptation of Sophocles’ Antigone in 1948 was openly a political gesture that aspired to the complete rationalization of Greek Tragedy. From the beginning, Brecht made it his task to wrench ancient tragic poetry out of its ‘ideological haze’, and proceeded to dismantle and eliminate what he named the ‘element of fate’, the crucial substance of tragic myth itself. However, his encounter with Hölderlin's unorthodox translation of Antigone, the main source for his appropriation and rewriting of the play, led him to engage in a radical experiment in theatrical practice. From the isolated first performance of Antigone, a model was created—the Antigonemodell —that demanded a direct confrontation with the many obstacles brought about by the foreign structure of Greek tragedy as a whole. In turn, such difficulties brought to light the problem of rhythm in its relation to Brecht’s own ideas of how to perform ancient poetry in a modern setting, as exemplified by the originally alienating figure of the tragic chorus. More importantly, such obstacles put into question his ideas of performance in general, as well as the way they can still resonate in our own understanding of what performance is or might be in a broader sense. 1947–1948: Swabian inflections It is known that upon returning from his American exile, at the end of 1947, Bertolt Brecht began to work on Antigone, the tragic poem by Sophocles. Brecht’s own Antigone premiered in the Swiss city of Chur on February 1948.
