Like the top executives they are, they knew a good thing the instant they saw it. They sensed the history and heritage of the lush woodland into which the homes are nestled. They savored the charm and beauty of the natural wonders that abound here: the sounds of singing birds and rustling trees; the friendly, curious small animals peeking out of the woods; the gently rolling hills, open to view because of the way the homes are grouped in small, intimate clusters. And there is more to Heritage Village: swimming pools, arts and crafts center, 18-hole golf course, wildlife refuge, shopping and professional services, picnic areas, riding trails, a theatre for legiti- mate productions and more. That's why they decided to move to this 1000-acre, adult condominium village. They came; they saw; they stayed. Interested? Write: Heritage Village, Southbury, Conn. 06488.

    Nikolai Tcherepnin UNDER THE CANOPY OF MY LIFE Artistic, creative, musical pedagogy, public and private Translated by John Ranck But1 you are getting old, pick Flowers, growing on the graves And with them renew your heart. Nekrasov2 And ethereally brightening-within-me Beloved shadows arose in the Argentine mist Balmont3 The Tcherepnins are from the vicinity of Izborsk, an ancient Russian town in the Pskov province. If I remember correctly, my aged aunts lived on an estate there which had been passed down to them by their fathers and grandfathers. Our lineage is not of the old aristocracy, and judging by excerpts from the book of Records of the Nobility of the Pskov province, the first mention of the family appears only in the early 19th century. I was born on May 3, 1873 in St. Petersburg. My father, a doctor, was lively and very gifted. His large practice drew from all social strata and included literary luminaries with whom he collaborated as medical consultant for the gazette, “The Voice” that was published by Kraevsky.4 Some of the leading writers and poets of the day were among its editors. It was my father’s sorrowful duty to serve as Dostoevsky’s doctor during the writer’s last illness. Social activities also played a large role in my father’s life. He was an active participant in various medical societies and frequently served as chairman. He also counted among his patients several leading musical and theatrical figures. My father was introduced to the “Mussorgsky cult” at the hospitable “Tuesdays” that were hosted by his colleague, Dr.

  • Chopin in the Music Culture of Russia in the Second Half of the Nineteenth Century
    Interdisciplinary Studies in Musicology g, 2011 © Department of Musicology, Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznań, Poland TOMASZ BARANOWSKI (Warszawa) Chopin in the music culture of Russia in the second half of the nineteenth century. From Glinka to Scriabin ABSTRACT: This article deals with the reception of Chopin’s music in Russia during the second half of the nineteenth century, as broadly understood. The Chopin cult that developed in Russia was not only genuine, it was exceptional in Europe, giving rise to numerous artistic achievements in many complementary areas, above all composition, pianism and music publishing. The author discusses the issue from an historical perspective, presenting profiles of six outstanding Russian composers in whose life and work the influence of Chopin was at its greatest. The first is Mikhail Glinka, a pioneer of the national orientation in Russian music, who drew abundantly on Chopinian models. The next generation is represented by Anton Rubinstein, the most famous Russian pianist of his times, and two of the Mighty Handful, Mily Balakirev and Nikolay Rimsky-Korsakov. Among the last heirs to Chopin in Russia, pursuing their artistic careers around the turn of the twentieth century, are two composers who masterfully assimilated the stylistic idiom of the composer of the Polonaise-Fantasy, namely Anatoly Lyadov, known as the “Russian Chopin”, and Alexander Scriabin. KEYWORDS: Russia, Fryderyk Chopin, reception, Chopin style, national style, Mighty Handful Introduction Russia has a special place on the extensive and impressive map of Chopin’s music reception in the nineteenth century, both in terms of multi­ plicity and variety of achievements. There, the true cult of Chopin (different from so-called “chopinmania”, which was popular in the West) developed to the highest degree, and the work of the Polish composer found numerous followers; it also constituted the foundation of the great Russian piano school, which was initiated at that time.

It was in her captivating class on twentieth-century Polish music in the Spring of 2012 that I was introduced to the music of Szymanowski, and without her generous assistance, thought-provoking comments, and steadfast encouragement I would not have survived this task. To my mentor and teacher Mark Kaplan, thank you for the many years of inspiration and support. You fostered in me a love for the violin and a curiosity for music that I would not otherwise have found. Your support and understanding over the years have been greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read through drafts and for your advice regarding writing style. Finally, a most poignant and special thanks to my parents, Ken and Sue. Thank you for submitting your lives to this musical journey so many years ago. You have been a constant force that has kept me moving forward through every challenge, every performance, audition, and exam.

    Horowitz, Vladimir (1903-1989) by Slawomir P. Dobrzanski Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2008 glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Vladimir Horowitz. Image courtesy Library of Congress Prints and The career of Vladimir Horowitz finds no comparison with that of any other twentieth- Photographs Division. century pianist. For many, he embodied the last link to the nineteenth-century Grand Piano Era. His legendary artistry, preserved on recordings, remains a source of inspiration for generations of pianists, a delight for listeners, and a constant subject of academic inquiry. Born on October 1, 1903 in the Ukraine, a son of an affluent Jewish family, Horowitz began piano lessons at the age of six, studying with his mother. Later, he attended the Kiev Conservatory, where he was a student of Sergei Tarnovsky, Vladimir Puchalsky, and Felix Blumenfeld. Horowitz's solo career began in the Soviet Union, where he quickly gained fame as a bravura performer with extraordinary technique. He was allowed to leave Russia in 1925 as part of a mission to propagate Soviet culture abroad. However, he soon decided not to return to the Soviet Union. In 1929, in order to facilitate his travels across borders, he accepted the honorary citizenship of Haiti. In 1945, he became a citizen of the United States. Following successful 1926 debuts in Berlin, Hamburg, Paris, Rome, and London, Horowitz settled in Paris, sharing an apartment with his manager Alexander Merovitch, the cellist Gregor Piatigorsky, and the violinist Nathan Milstein. The Horowitz-Milstein-Piatigorsky trio performed together only once. Even though the careers of its members took independent paths, all three musicians soon moved to the United States.

  • Anton Arensky and the Rise of Musical Nationalism in Late Nineteenth-Century Russia
    eSharp Issue 25:2 Rise and Fall Anton Arensky and the Rise of Musical Nationalism in Late Nineteenth-Century Russia Ingrid Bols (University of Glasgow) Anton Arensky (1861- 1906) was one of a new generation of Russian composers following the famous Mighty Handful of Balakirev, Mussorgsky, Rimsky-Korsakov, Borodin and Cui. He entered the newly-founded Conservatoire of St Petersburg, to study piano and composition, in 1879. In the class of Rimski-Korsakov, he became a very talented student. As soon as he graduated, he achieved the honour of a direct nomination to professorship in the Conservatoire of Moscow. There he taught counterpoint and harmony, with Scriabin and Rachmaninov among his students. His successful life, and posthumous lack of fame, formed a violent rise and fall. Most later commentators consider him as a composer without a distinctive style. However, his work can be viewed in a different light. Arensky was born during the core period of musical nationalism. This movement, whether in central and northern Europe or in Russia, rose in reaction to the imperialism of German style. Music could no longer be considered an ars gratia artis concept, but became the flagship of national demands. In Russia, Glinka (1804-1857), the ‘Father of Russian Music’, considered the nation as ‘creator’ and the composer as an ‘arranger’, and argued that Russian music should be distinct from Western canons. Arensky belonged to this rising trend through his position at the very heart of Russian institutions, his integration of Russian folklore, such as tunes, literature and legends, and his use of Orthodox music.
