Bach's service as Kapellmeister to this Prince was an agreeable inter- lude, lasting six years (1717-1723), in his life-long career as a composer for the church. It was preceded by his nine years (1708-1717) as Kammer Musicus and Organist to the Duke Wilhelm Ernst of Saxe-Weimar, followed by the remaining twenty-seven years of his life as Cantor at the St. Thomas and St. Nicholas churches in the free city of Leipzig. These three jobs developed three sides of the artist Bach: Weimar his great organ works, Your Year-Round Vacationland Your Permanent Home For gracious living, for unexcelled business opportunities, there's no place like the Berkshire Hills! A renowned resort area, the Berk- shires offer a skilled labor sup- ply, easy access to major markets and strategic materials, top-notch educational facilities and good transportation. Now that the Massachusetts Turnpike is opened, this thriving industrial area and its delightful suburbs are just a short drive from Boston and New York. For an informative brochure, write: BERKSHIRE HILLS CONFERENCE 100 North Street, Pittsfield, Mass. — 6 — — Cothen his chamber works, Leipzig his greatest choral works—the Passions, the Mass, the long list of cantatas. Bach was not required to provide any ritual music at Cothen. If he missed through this interim the performance of such duties, the worship of God through music, the zest with which he explored the possibilities of instrumental, solo and chamber combinations shows no sign of it. The Prince was far more sympathetic, musically intelligent and appreciative of Bach's talents and creative value than his haughty employers at Weimar who imprisoned him for wanting to leave, or the church officials at Leipzig who found him intransigent, a bothersome subordinate, and little better than mediocre. When the young Leopold became lord of the small principality of Cothen, he put at Bach's complete disposal a limited but choice group of players. The Prince played the violin, the viola da gamba and the clavier he even made use of his baritone voice. Bach may have written the gamba sonatas with his Prince in mind, also the violin sonatas, accompanied and unaccompanied. He wrote the two volumes of the Clavierbuchlein for his then new wife, Anna Magdalena, at Cothen and for his first born, Wilhelm Friedemann, who was nine years old in 1720. There was also the first volume of the Well-tempered Clavier. The six Brandenburg Concertos, dedicated to an Elector who would hardly have had the talent in his employ to perform them, nor the perception to enjoy them, were probably intended for perform- v These 9CF pianists Evelyn Crochet featured this season at Leon Fleisher Claude Frank the Berkshire Festival Gary Graffman play only Eugene Istomin f Byron Janis THE STMWAY Rudolf Serkin Vronsky and Babin r IN MASSACHUSETTS AND NEW HAMPSHIRE NEW STEINWAY PIANOS ARE SOLD ONLY BY M.

It is not known whether the four Suites for Orchestra were all composed at Cothen, for Bach, over and above his churchly duties at Leipzig, wrote and performed there a considerable amount of lay music for the Collegium Musicum, a chamber music group which, founded by Telemann, met in a coffee house for the pleasure of playing rather than the few coins that might have come from interested hearers. It was for the Collegium Musicum that he transcribed his violin concertos for the clavier, for performance by himself or his sons, Wilhelm Friedemann and Carl Philip Emanuel. BRANDENBURG CONCERTO IN G MAJOR, NO. 3, FOR STRINGS The "Brandenburg" Concertos can be looked upon as an experiment in various instrumental combinations. Of the six this one, like the last, is written for strings only. It is unique among them in having no intervening slow movement to bring the customary contrast between the two allegros.* The original title runs "Concerto 3zo a tre Violini, tre Viole, e tre Violoncelli col Basso per il Cembalo," but the score definitely gives a place to the string basses, doubling the cellos, whereby the "cembalo" becomes * Bach used the first movement as an instrumental introduction {"Concerto"") to his Cantata 174 ("Ich liebe den hochsten von ganzen Gemuihe") for Alto, Tenor, Bass, and Orchestra. To the string parts, unchanged, he added two corni da caccia, two oboes and tenor oboe ("Taille"), the wind parts sometimes doubling, sometimes adding to the notation. •*** AVAVOCI* **** A COUNTRY INN LENOX, MASSACHUSETTS Just across the Road-AVALOCH offers two fine restaurants of different and exciting character .

Bach thus divides his forces into three complete and equal string orchestras. At times, as in the first exposition, the three parts for each kind of instrument are in unison, making an ensemble of only three distinct voices (though the players themselves are distributed), giving a special sense of integration and solidity. At times the three parts (for violins, violas, or cellos) are at vari- ance, giving an infinite diversity and richness in contrapuntal imitation. Using brief rhythmic figures, Bach establishes and sustains an astonishing vitality in their varied manipulation. OVERTURE (SUITE) NO. 2 IN B MINOR FOR FLUTE AND STRING ORCHESTRA The grave introductory measures of the first movement, given to the combined group, are followed by a lively fugue, the development of which is occasionally interrupted by florid passages for the flute which here first emerges as a solo instrument. In the Rondo, which is an unusual form with Bach, the voice of the flute is matched with the strings. In the Sarabande, the cellos follow the flute theme in canonic imitation. The second of the two Bourrees again projects the flute in the recurring ornamental figuration which gives the suite so much of its charm. The flute is again so treated in the Double (or variant) of the Polonaise. The Minuet has the usual two MUSIC AT BOSTON UNIVERSITY • Scholarship Awards to outstanding high school seniors one to four years full tuition. • Freshman Applications now being processed for 1963- 1964 admission.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy o f a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “ Missing Page(s)” . I f it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image o f the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note w ill appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part o f the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin film ing at the upper left hand comer o f a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. I f necessary, sectioning is continued again-beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

Bach Cantata 51: Jauchzet Gott in allen Landen—Who Might Have Sung It? David Friddle AUCHZET GOTT IN ALLEN LANDEN is one of four cantatas for solo soprano: BWV 51, 52, 84, and 199. It is exhilarating, virtuosic, enigmatic; and even though a beautiful manuscript exists that specifies the Sunday for J which it is written, there are surprisingly few uncontested facts about its genesis. Using archaeological research, careful analysis, and empirical observa- tion, I will demonstrate how the age of male onset puberty has dropped since the eighteenth century —and how that impacted Bach’s sopranos; with the help of the Bach-Archiv in Leipzig, we will examine the daily life of a boy in the Thomasschule, as well as the makeup of Bach’s choirs in the four Leipzig David Friddle churches he oversaw; finally, we will probe the identity of who—adult female, castrato, or prepubescent male—actually sang its first performance.

Once again, we continue the tradition established by our founder, Burton Karson, of presenting five concerts over eight days. Violinist Elizabeth Blumenstock, now in her ninth year as artistic director, programmed her first “Bach-Fest” back in 2015, and this year she felt the time was right to revisit the concept: a week of glorious Bach, explored from many angles. Our Festival Finale has always been devoted to vocal masterpieces; this year the Wednesday program is too. And the “Milieu” of this season’s title will be explored through music by Bach’s influencers and contemporaries, creating a fascinating historical and musical journey. Thank you for being an integral part of this year’s Festival. We are grateful to you — our donors, foundation contributors, corporate partners, advertisers and concertgoers — for your ongoing and generous support.

BWV 3 is part of the series of chorale cantatas that give the second yearly cycle its special character, whereas BWV 28, 110, 146 and 168 already belong to the third yearly cycle. However, cantatas BWV 85, 87, 108, 128, 175, 176 and 183, mostly compositions on texts by Mariane von Ziegler, bring the second yearly cycle to its conclusion. Bach had taken up his position as Kantor of St Thomas’s, Leipzig, at the end of May 1723 and so begun his regular performances of cantatas on the First Sunday after Trinity – in other words, in the middle of the church year.

    THE HYMN OF THE DAY: ITS DEVELOPMENT AND USE BY DANIEL T. NAUMANN PATRICK S. FREESE A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF DIVINITY PROF. JAMES P. TIEFEL, ADVISOR WISCONSIN LUTHERAN SEMINARY MEQUON, WISCONSIN MARCH 2012 ABSTRACT This thesis depicts the development of the Hymn of the Day as it was born out of Luther’s Graduallied and how the concept of the Hymn of the Day was born out of the Lutheran Reformation. The Graduallied was a hymn Luther added after the Epistle was read which focused on the season of the Church Year. As new hymns were created the Lutherans replaced the Graduallied with the Hauptlied, or the Hymn of the Day. The Hymn of the Day was a hymn that fit the theme of the assigned Gospel for a Sunday or festival service. As this thesis examines the rise of the Hymn of the Day, it also examines its fall into disuse by many parts of the Lutheran Church and how the liturgical reawakening within Lutheranism has brought the Hymn of the Day back into use within much of the Lutheran Church. While this thesis discusses the development of the Hymn of the Day within Lutheranism in general, it focuses attention in detail upon the Hymn of the Day and its use within the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod. This thesis also notes some of the tensions Lutherans have had related to the Hymn of the Day. i TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION 1 PART I. DEVELOPMENT OF THE HYMN OF THE DAY 2 Chapter 1.
