  • Early Romantic Period 1800-1850
    Early Romantic Period 1800-1850 • Franz Schubert (1797-1828) o Austrian composer o Known for writing lieder (art songs) wrote over 600 lieder Piano and solo voice Der Erlkonig Who rides, so late, through night and wind? It is the father with his child. He holds the boy in the crook of his arm He holds him safe, he keeps him warm. "My son, why do you hide your face so anxiously?" "Father, do you not see the Erlking? The Erlking with crown and cloak?" "My son, it's a wisp of fog." "You lovely child, come, go with me! Many a beautiful game I'll play with you; Some colorful flowers are on the shore, My mother has some golden robes." "My father, my father, can't you hear, What the Erlking quietly promised me?" "Be calm, stay calm, my child; The wind rustles through dry leaves." "Do you want to come with me, fine lad? My daughters should be waiting for you; My daughters lead the nightly dances And will rock and dance and sing you to sleep." "My father, my father, can't you see there, The Erlking's daughters in the gloomy place?" "My son, my son, I see it well: The old willows seem so gray." "I love you, your beautiful form entices me; And if you're not willing, I shall use force." "My father, my father, he's grabbing me now! The Erlking has wounded me!" The father shudders; he rides swiftly, He holds in his arms the moaning child. Barely he arrives at the yard in urgency; In his arms, the child was dead.

  • By Konstantinou, Evangelos Precipitated Primarily by the Study
    by Konstantinou, Evangelos Precipitated primarily by the study of ancient Greece, a growing enthusiasm for Greece emerged in Europe from the 18th century. This enthusiasm manifested itself in literature and art in the movements referred to as classicism and neoclassicism. The founda- tions of contemporary culture were identified in the culture of Greek antiquity and there was an attempt to learn more about and even revive the latter. These efforts manifested themselves in the themes, motifs and forms employed in literature and art. How- ever, European philhellenism also had an effect in the political sphere. Numerous societies were founded to support the cause of Greek independence during the Greek War of Independence, and volunteers went to Greece to join the fight against the Ottoman Empire. Conversely, the emergence of the Enlightenment in Greece was due at least in part to the Greek students who studied at European universities and brought Enlightenment ideas with them back to Greece. TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. Literary and Popular Philhellenism in Europe 2. European Travellers to Greece and Their Travel Accounts 3. The Greek Enlightenment 4. Reasons for Supporting Greece 5. Philhellenic Germany 6. Lord Byron 7. European Philhellenism 8. Societies for the Support of the Greeks 9. Bavarian "State Philhellenism" 10. Jakob Philip Fallmerayer and Anti-Philhellenism 11. Appendix 1. Sources 2. Bibliography 3. Notes Indices Citation The neo-humanism of the 18th and 19th centuries contributed considerably to the emergence of a philhellenic1 climate in Europe. This new movement was founded by Johann Joachim Winckelmann (1717–1768) (ᇄ Media Link #ab), who identified aesthetic ideals and ethical norms in Greek art, and whose work Geschichte der Kunst des Altertums (1764) (ᇄ Media Link #ac) (History of the Art of Antiquity) made ancient Greece the point of departure for an aestheticizing art history and cultural history.

  • The Evolution of the Heldentenor
    THE EVOLUTION OF THE HELDENTENOR : SIEGMUND, GRIMES, SAMSON, AND OTELLO by JAMES HENRY SEAY, III SUSAN CURTIS FLEMING, COMMITTEE CHAIR PAUL H. HOUGHTALING STEPHEN V. PELES LINDA PAGE CUMMINS AMANDA W. PENICK ELIZABETH S. AVERSA A DMA MANUSCRIPT Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts in the School of Music in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2014 Copyright James Henry Seay, III 2014 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT The purpose of this manuscript is to set into context a recital which highlights the attributes of the Heldentenor. The recital was held on 11 March 2014 and was comprised of operatic excerpts from Wagner’s Die Walk üre (1870), Saints-Sa ëns’ Samson et Dalila (1877) , Britten’s Peter Grimes (1945), and Verdi’s Otello (1887). All four of these operas have become mainstays in the repertoire of the Heldentenor . The program from the recital appears in the appendix at the end of this manuscript, and the program includes translations of the operatic excerpts and the text of spoken introductions that were read as part of the recital. Since the mid-nineteenth century, the Heldentenor voice classification has played an integral role in popular opera theater. The origin of the Heldentenor classification can be traced back to the abrupt change in the performance practice of the upper register of the tenor voice with the now famous performance of the full-throated, chest high Cs in Rossini’s Guillame Tell sung by Gilbert-Louis Duprez (1806-1896) at the national opera in Paris in 1837.1 As the technique involving the upper register of the tenor voice changed, the vocal and dramatic demands placed on the voice type increased.

  • Verdi the Craftsman *
    Revista Portuguesa de Musicologia n. 0 11, Lisboa, 2001, pp. 81-111 Verdi the Craftsman * PHILIP GOSSETT La don - nl!]l mo - bi-le qual piu - ma3I ven - to, Ex. 1 Giuseppe Verdi, Rigoletto, Canzone Duca. am not embarrassed to admit that, however much my I knowledge of Italian nineteenth-century opera may have broadened and deepened over the years, what first drew me to this repertory and what continues to set my blood coursing in the theater is a series of extraordinary melodies, often over simple orchestral accompaniments. When Jonathan Miller had the Duke's famous Canzone emerge from a juke box in his Rigoletto, updated to New York's Little Italy during the 1950s, he gave theatrical expression to a well-understood (if sometimes resisted) fact: many Verdian tunes emerge unscathed from a hurdy gurdy, an organ grinder, or a juke box, and these tunes play a significant dramatic and musical role in Italian opera. Once heard they seem always to have existed, eternal markers of innate melodic genius. In the world these tunes inhabit and occasionally dominate, what sense does it make to talk of craftsmanship? Both those who love this repertory and those who loathe it have cónstructed myths about Italian opera that continue to influence audience reaction and public discourse. When the French philosopher and musician, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, This essay was conceived as a lecture in honor of the centennial of V erdi' s death. I want to thank Manuel Carlos de Brito for inviting me to deliver it in Lisbon in 2001, and for inviting me to publish it in its original form in the Revista Portuguesa de Musicologia.
