  • Edward J. De Coppet and the Birth of Chamber Music in the United States
    Antonio Baldassarre Hochschule Luzern – Musik [email protected] The desire for national identity and identifiability: Edward J. De Coppet and the birth of chamber music in the United States Abstract. On October 21, 1886, the Swiss banker and music patron Edward J. De Coppet (1855–1916) organised a musical gathering in his apartment in New York’s upper West Side. The concert marked the beginning of a lively and enduring interest in chamber music by musical New York. Before his death, De Coppet organized 1,054 musical meetings and was also crucial in the establishment of the Flonzaley Quartet. Established in 1902 the Quartet was to rise to become the epitome of modern US- American string quartet culture. In addition De Coppet actively supported the transition of chamber music from a primarily domestic activity into a public venture. His efforts were honored with a remarkable celebration in 1914, celebrating the twenty-fifth anniversary of De Coppet’s musical activities and the tenth anniversary of the first public performance of the Flonzaley Quartet. The paper will explore De Coppet’s efforts as part of a broader culturally- and politically-charged agenda, strongly linked to the desire for national identity and identifiability that shaped activities in many areas of life in the U.S.A. between 1890 and 1920. On the evening of 9 March 1914 more than two hundred renowned musicians and members of the wealthy and socially prominent New York establishment convened for supper at Sherry’s, then one of New York City’s most elegant and upscale restaurants at Fifth Avenue and Forty-Fourth Street.1 They gathered there to celebrate twenty-five years of Mr.

    DARIUS MILHAUD IN THE UNITED STATES, 1940–71: TRANSATLANTIC CONSTRUCTIONS OF MUSICAL IDENTITY Erin K. Maher A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Music in the College of Arts and Sciences. Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: Annegret Fauser Andrea Bohlman Tim Carter David Garcia Mark Katz © 2016 Erin K. Maher ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Erin K. Maher: Darius Milhaud in the United States, 1940–71: Transatlantic Constructions of Musical Identity (Under the direction of Annegret Fauser) When the French Jewish composer Darius Milhaud (1892–1974) fled his homeland with his wife and son at the time of the German invasion in 1940, this displacement marked the beginning of three decades of engagement with the musical culture and institutions of the United States. After seven years of wartime exile in Oakland, California, Darius and Madeleine Milhaud divided their time between Oakland and Paris, taking on a transatlantic existence that enabled them to assume distinct roles in U.S. musical life. Both during and after World War II, the composer taught on the faculty of Mills College, participated in intersecting musical networks, and continued to compose prolifically. He also continually renegotiated his identity as a composer—and as a Frenchman in the United States—in response to professional opportunities, personal circumstances, and cultural shifts. This dissertation presents the first in-depth study of Milhaud’s activity in the United States, interpreting the results of new archival research through frameworks of identity construction and transnational mobility.

Little investigation has been completed on his works outside of his Indianist interest, leaving many gaps in our knowledge of his music. While compiling materials for this thesis, it was observed that Skilton, now nearly forgotten as a serious art music composer, was well received as a composer, theorist, and pedagogue during his life. Much of his extant works are comparable to Indianist composers such as Arthur Farwell and Charles Wakefield Cadman. Skilton was known for more than just his Indianist works; his legacy as an American music pioneer is quite worthy of acknowledgement.
