  • PROGRAM NOTES Henry Purcell
    PROGRAM NOTES by Phillip Huscher Henry Purcell - Suite from King Arthur Born sometime in 1659, place unknown. Died November 21, 1695, London, England. Suite from King Arthur Purcell composed his semi-opera King Arthur, with texts by John Dryden, in 1691. The first performance was given at the Dorset Garden Theatre in London in May of that year. The orchestra for this suite of instrumental excerpts consists of two oboes and english horn, two trumpets, timpani, and strings, with continuo provided by bassoon and harpsichord. Performance time is approximately twenty minutes. The Chicago Symphony Orchestra has performed music from Purcell's King Arthur (Trumpet Tune, "Ye blust'ring brethren of the skies," with Charles W. Clark as soloist, and Grand Dance: Chaconne) only once previously, on subscription concerts at the Auditorium Theatre on December 13 and 14, 1901, with Theodore Thomas conducting. Henry Purcell is the one composer who lived and worked before J. S. Bach who has found a place in the symphonic repertory. The Chicago Symphony played Purcell's music as early as 1901, when it programmed three selections from King Arthur on the first of its new "historical" programs designed to "illustrate the development of the orchestra and its literature, from the earliest times down to the present day." Purcell still stands at the very beginning of the modern orchestra's repertory, although he is best known to today's audiences for the cameo appearance his music makes in Benjamin Britten's twentieth- century classic, the Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra. Purcell is regularly described as the finest English composer before Edward Elgar, if not as the greatest English composer of all.

  • PURCELL: Ode for St Cecilia 1692 – BMC 40
    PURCELL: Ode for St Cecilia 1692 – BMC 40 In 1683 a group of gentlemen amateurs and professional musicians started a "Musical Society" in London to celebrate the "Festival of St. Cecilia, a great Patroness of Music" on November 22nd. They asked Henry Purcell, then only 24, to be the first to write an Ode for their festivals; this Ode, Welcome to All the Pleasures, can be heard on our previous disc, BMC 39. Contrast this with the present Ode for St Cecilia , composed in 1692. Here we have a Purcell greatly matured and confident, already foreshadowing Handel. TRACK 1 Thou didst the scattered atoms bind Symphony (Overture) Which by the laws of true proportion joined, This splendid five-section Symphony opens with strings Made up of various parts, one perfect harmony. and trumpets answering each other. The second part is a Fugue on two subjects, followed by an Adagio in which TRACK 3 the oboes echo the violins. A brilliant Allegro for the Soprano & Chorus :Thou Tun'st This World trumpets follows, and after a harmonic Adagio, the Thou tun'st this world below, the spheres above, / Allegro is reprised. Who in the heavenly round to their own music move. TRACK 2 Trio: With That Sublime Celestial Lay Soli and Chorus: "Hail! Bright Cecilia" With that sublime celestial lay can any earthly sounds compare? Hail! bright Cecilia, fill ev'ry heart If any earthly music dare, the noble organ may. With love of thee and thy celestial art, From heav'n its wondrous notes were giv'n, That thine, and Music's sacred love Cecilia oft conversed with heav'n.

I would also like to thank Professor Eric Clarke (University of Sheffield) for suggestingstandard deviation as the most suitable method for the statistical calculation of tessitura, and Dr. John Powell (University of Nottingham) and Mr. Luke Jobling BSc for confirming the scientific validity of the final statistical formula. i Elizabeth J.

This process is begun in the first chapter by discussing 'The Counter-Tenor Debate' in order to establish the method(s) of vocal production used by Purcell's counter-tenors. This in turn addressesthe issue of whether the counter-tenor was a completely different voice type from the tenor, or if they were simply high and low subdivisions of the same voice type.

  • 76 a Continuing Tradition? Manifestations of The
    On Common Ground 2: Continuity and Change DHDS March 1998 Text copyright © Sarah McCleave and DHDS 1998 A CONTINUING TRADITION? MANIFESTATIONS OF THE GROTESQUE IN PURCELL AND HANDEL Sarah McCleave Cardiff University of Wales In his An Essay Towards an History of Dancing (1712), John Weaver divides ‘Stage- Dancing’ into three parts: serious, grotesque, and scenical.1 The first required a ‘certain Address and Artfulness ... [of] Gesture...’.2 Gesture also played a role in grotesque dance. Here Weaver advised that ‘the Master must take peculiar Care to contrive his Steps, and adapt his Actions, and Humour, to the Characters or Sentiments he would represent or express ...’. Indeed, Weaver tells us that each passion had its own ‘peculiar Gesture’. By stating that the ‘tunes’ for the dances should be ‘justly adapted to [the] Characters’ represented, Weaver implies that music also had a representative function in these dances.3 Although describing characteristics of each type of dance, Weaver does not provide unequivocal definitions as such. Serious or genteel dancing,4 has ‘generally the same’ steps as ‘Common-Dancing’,5 and includes generic dances such as the chaconne or passacaille.6 However, Weaver does not exclusively link the concepts of genteel danc- ing and generic music. As the concept of ‘character’ is unequivocally linked to gro- tesque dancing, I have considered all character dances as grotesque. So a shepherd danc- ing to a hornpipe is performing in the grotesque style, in character. I have taken ‘gentil- ity’ back to its courtly roots, and have reserved this category for dances performed by stage courtiers or anonymous dancers performing in the masques within the dramatic operas, as the masque itself was originally conceived as a court entertainment.

  • Henry Purcell
    Composers Name ......................................... Bach - Handel - Purcell Sheet 7 Henry Purcell - 1659 - 1695 his early years When Henry Purcell was a little boy, he would have played in the cobble-stone lanes around his home in London with his little brother, Daniel, who was only one year younger than Henry. He grew up to be a composer as well. Some sad things happened during their childhood years. Henry was only about six years old when the Great Plague spread to London. This was a terrible disease that killed about a hundred thousand people in only one year. When Henry was seven years old he lived through the great fire of London as well. It lasted for five days and destroyed most of the city because most of the buildings were made of wood. After that, Henry saw the city being rebuilt, but this time the buildings were made out of brick and stone so they were much safer and better looking. Henry had a fine singing voice. This was not surprising because both his father and uncle Thomas were musicians and Gentlemen of the Royal Chapel, where musicians who played for the king were trained. When he was about nine years old, Henry became one of the Children in the Chapel Royal and was taught to sing properly by a man named Henry Cooke. Mr Cooke used to be a captain in the army and he disciplined the boys in his care and made sure that they practiced as much as they needed to and studied all the subjects that they had to learn.
