By now a great variety of materials have been dealt with. A special focus has been on music material, including music manuscripts and prints of the 17th and 18th century from many smaller Lutheran churches and 2 Monday 23 July IAML Leipzig 2018 – Preliminary Programme schools (Grimma, Löbau, Pirna etc.), rivate collections brought together in the 19th and 20th century now held in the Stadtbibliothek Leipzig and Bach-Archiv Leipzig, concert programmes from a variety of institutions (Holy Cross Choir Dresden, Dresden Philharmonics, Royal Opera Dresden, Leipzig Conservatory etc.), as well as early audio-visual material by the famous Leipzig Tanzarchiv.

Comprising a research institute, a library, a museum, and an events department, it occupies the historic Bose House complex at St Thomas’s Square, opposite the church where J. S. Bach served as cantor for 27 years. With its unmatched collections and manifold activities the Bach Archive contributes significantly to the time-honoured image of Leipzig as a “city of music” in general and a “Bach city” in particular. The paper will start with an overview about the Bach Archive’s collections, our latest acquisitions and the thereby arising recent research and digitization developments. This will be followed by a discussion about the challenges and problems of a mainly externally funded building and conservation process for a special collection of Bach and Central German baroque music sources. Annett Büttner (Kurt-Masur-Archiv, Leipzig) Das internationale Kurt-Masur-Archiv in Leipzig In my short presentation I would like to introduce a relatively young institute. The Int. Kurt Masur Institute was founded in 2016 as a subsidiary of the Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy Foundation in Leipzig. Since November 2017 it has been housed in Bartholdy’s last residence, a beautiful classicist building in Leipzig's city centre. Under the motto "Music-Encounters-Inspiration", the institute would like to address not only the musical achievements of the conductor Kurt Masur, but also his humanistic attitude and his commitment to society and young musical talents. I would like to start with some introductory words about Kurt Masur and his numerous life stages as a conductor, among others at the Gewandhaus Leipzig and The New York Philharmonic. He also became well-known far beyond Leipzig for his peaceful demurrage on Monday, October 9, 1989 and the so-called peaceful revolution. Even this short description of his Vita shows that the archives include a large variety of very heterogeneous materials, a diversity that presents its own 3 Monday 23 July IAML Leipzig 2018 – Preliminary Programme challenges. These contains the classical written paper records of a conductor, such as personal documents, sheet music, scores, program books, posters and an extensive musicological library. This material is supplemented by quantitatively not yet documented recordings such as tapes, cassettes, records, and CDs. Katrin Bicher (Sächsische Landesbibliothek – Staats- und Universitätsbibliothek Dresden) Documenting contemporary music – possibilities and challenges for contemporary music archives in the digital age Undoubtedly, contemporary compositions are part of the dialogue inherent in societal self- identity and hence are part of our cultural heritage. Institutions that are obliged to document and maintain this legacy are faced with multiple challenges in terms of curation, long-term- preservation of, and access to contemporary music. What or whom determines the profile used when archiving this collection? Apart from institutional mandates determined by affiliations to specific composers: who receives the ultimate decision making authority to define what is worthy of being kept and what should be left out or forgotten-especially in light of the ever increasing ease and global access afforded us by the Internet? What and by which means should "contemporary music" be archived; especially as boundaries within the artwork itself becomes fluid as participants and works with different contexts begin to interact or merge? Which technical challenges do multi-media-artworks bring with them? What does accessibility mean; what role will the ability to connect to these archives play and what functions will the archival institutions themselves assume? And finally, what possibilities for artists and audiences will be realized by documenting contemporary music in public archives? Citing the example of the "Archiv für zeitgenössische Komponisten" at SLUB Dresden, this presentation will delve into these questions and thus hopefully produce the necessary impulse for a discussion of the aspects and concepts of contemporary music archives in terms of acquisition, preservation and distribution. 11.00-12.30 Crossing national borders: music in Europe in the 19th and 20th centuries Presented by the Forum of Sections Chair: Rupert Ridgewell (IAML Vice President, British Library, London) Berit Holth (National Library of Norway, Oslo) Edvard Grieg – Norwegian and European. A critical review This paper intends to present Edvard Grieg within the time and society where he worked and where he belonged, focusing on how his European connections contributed in creating a particular Norwegian tonal language and identity. Grieg’s music and personality played an important role in the nation building which was the main subject in Norway during Grieg’s life and which resulted in establishing the independent Norwegian nation two years before Grieg died. Leipzig played an important part in Grieg’s life as a composer. He was educated at the Music Conservatory in Leipzig and later he had a fruitful cooperation with his publisher there, Max Abraham, the head of Peters Verlag. The advertisements on the back of the scores from Peters 4 Monday 23 July IAML Leipzig 2018 – Preliminary Programme give an impression of the musical environment in which the music of Grieg was published. At times, Grieg was the best-selling composer of Peters. Edvard Grieg and his wife Nina stayed for longer periods in Leipzig and also gave concerts there. Grieg grew up in Bergen, an international oriented town in Norway, with its historic Hansa traditions and easy access to England across the North Sea. Nearly all of the important Norwegian artists in the nineteenth century went abroad for shorter or longer periods during their lifetime and many settled abroad. Grieg followed this tradition. Therefore, Grieg would also meet groups of Norwegian artists at many places in Europe, sharing artistic and political ideas. Grieg was politically aware at home as well as abroad. As an example he gave strong public support for Dreyfus in the Dreyfus affair in France. I want to focus on the fact that Grieg was a composer and musician that worked in a public-minded context. It is interesting that Grieg managed to develop a peculiarly Norwegian tonal language precisely in the meeting and “mix” with other cultures. Using folk music as an element in composing classical music had become popular among composers in the leading musical nations. Grieg took up this idea. He dug into the very soul of folk music, trying to reveal its secrets, and to transform it to a complete new work, which easily enables us to recognize a typical Grieg sound. Edvard and Nina Grieg had a rare cooperation in performing music together, as she was his preferred interpreter of his songs. Probably this was the main reason for the fact that the songs of Grieg represent a very important part of his output, with about 140 songs in all. Problems with good translations are one reason for the fact that many of the songs have not got the international break-through that they deserve. During Edvard Grieg’s education in Leipzig he was struck down with a severe illness. As a result, one of his lungs did not function after that and he had to struggle with bad

  • Johann Sebastian Bach's Kreuzstab Cantata
    Johann Sebastian Bach’s Kreuzstab Cantata (BWV 56): Identifying the Emotional Content of the Libretto Georg Corall University of Western Australia Along with numerous other music theorists of the eighteenth century, Johann Joachim Quantz compares an expressive musical performance to the delivery of a persuasive speech by a distinguished orator. For a successful rhetorical delivery of the music of that period, however, today’s musicians not only need to study the score of a work, but they also need to analyse the words of the vocal parts. In the present case study, Johann Sebastian Bach’s cantata BWV 56, generally known as the Kreuzstab Cantata, will be investigated in view of its libretto’s emotional message, and how it should affect an audience. The secondary literature, which generally ties an understanding of suffering, cross-bearing and an almost suicidal component to the anonymous poet’s text, will be reviewed. In particular the term Kreuzstab, its meaning, and its emotional affiliation will be scrutinized. The Doctrine of the Affections (Affektenlehre) and the Doctrine of the Musical-Rhetorical Figures (Figurenlehre) both provide modern-day performers with the necessary tools for a historically informed performance of the music of Bach’s time and will help to identify the emotions of Bach’s work. Informed by these doctrines, as well as through the distinct definition of the term Kreuzstab, the new understanding of Bach’s Cantata BWV 56 will require modern-day performers to contemplate a new approach in their aim of a persuasive delivery in a performance. The analysis of the words of BWV 56 certainly allows for a hopeful and happy anticipation of the salvation rather than a suicidal ‘yearning for death’.

  • An Opportunity Missed
    Understanding Bach, 10, 141–157 © Bach Network UK 2015 Current Concerns A Missed Opportunity: Reflections on Written by Mrs Bach RUTH TATLOW Suicide, destruction of property and extramarital relations are among the highlights of the award-winning film1 devoted to Martin Jarvis and his ideas about Anna Magdalena Bach (1701–1760) as the unnamed composer of some of her husband’s works.2 The book on which the film is based gives a more detailed account of the evolution of the ideas that gave rise to the sensational claims.3 The genius of the publicity machine behind the world press announcements of Jarvis’s discoveries, in April 2006,4 and the release of the film in December 2014 have put his ideas before millions of readers and viewers, and elicited reactions ranging from anger and confusion to sadness. My decision to undertake this analysis of Written by Mrs Bach was not taken lightly. I had to weigh up the pain of writing critically about the well-meant research effort of an acquaintance, against the temporary relief but longer-term discomfort of remaining silent.5 I offer this analysis in the hope that it might help clarify some of the confusions and defuse some of the widely-felt frustrations.6 1 Written by Mrs Bach, directed by Alex McCall.

  • Exploring Bach's B-Minor Mass
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-00790-1 - Exploring Bach’s B-Minor Mass Edited by Yo Tomita, Robin A. Leaver and Jan Smaczny Frontmatter More information Exploring Bach’s B-minor Mass The B-minor Mass has always represented a fascinating challenge to musical scholarship. Composed over the course of Johann Sebastian Bach’s life, it is considered by many to be the composer’s greatest and most complex work. The fourteen essays assembled in this volume originate from the international symposium ‘Understanding Bach’s B-minor Mass’ at which scholars from eighteen countries gathered to debate the latest topics in the field. In revised and updated form, they comprise a thorough and systematic study of Bach’s opus ultimum, including a wide range of discussions relating to the Mass’s historical background and contexts, structure and proportion, sources and editions, and the reception of the work in the late eighteenth century and the nineteenth century. In the light of important new developments in the study of the piece, this collection demonstrates the innovation and rigour for which Bach scholarship has become known. yo tomita is Professor of Musicology at Queen’s University Belfast. His publications include essays in The Piano in Nineteenth-Century British Culture (ed. Therese Ellsworth and Susan Wollenberg, 2007) and The English Bach Awakening: Knowledge of J. S. Bach and his Music in England 1750–1830 (ed. Michael Kassler, 2004). His research focuses on Bach studies, manuscript studies, piano education, text-critical analysis using Artificial Intelligence techniques and the development of computer software and tools for musicology.

  • Biffi, Bach, and the E-Minor Violin Sonata BWV 1023 David Schulenberg
    Biffi, Bach, and the E-Minor Violin Sonata BWV 1023 David Schulenberg Despite intense research on the textual history of individual works, much of Bach’s development as a musician and composer has remained a matter of speculation due to the loss of composing scores and other relevant documents. This is particularly true for the early part of his career, up to his appointment as Concertmeister to the court of Weimar in spring 1714. We have ample quantities of keyboard music that originated before that date—enough to furnish the basis for plausible theories of his evolution as a player and writer of music for organ and harpsichord—even if the absolute chronologies postulated by scholars for various works must be regarded as hypothetical.1 We have far less early vocal music and essentially nothing for instrumental ensemble; the handful of vocal compositions that can be placed at earlier stations of Bach’s life (especially at Mühlhausen in the years 1707 and 1708) stands in no clear stylistic relationship to his later cantatas, concertos, and sonatas, including individual instrumental movements within the Weimar cantatas. Vocal works of an up-to-date Italianate type seem to emerge fully formed around the middle of Bach’s Weimar period (1708–17) with the so-called Hunt Cantata, BWV 208, which probably dates from February 1713.2 Regular composition of sacred cantatas in the same style began about a year later, preceded possibly by BWV 21 and perhaps a few others.3 How Bach accomplished the transition from the middle-Baroque style of his first vocal compositions to one broadly echoing, or inspired by, that of contemporary Venetian and German composers, including Vivaldi and Telemann, is a mystery of which this essay attempts to illuminate one or two small facets.
