Liszt Franz Ferenc
LISZT FRANZ FERENC Pianista, compositore e direttore d'orchestra ungherese (Doborjan, Sopran, 22 X 1811 - Bayreuth 31 VII 1886) 1 Nato da genitori tedeschi (il cognome originario era List), verso i 6 anni fu avviato alla musica dal padre, esecutore dilettante di pianoforte, violino e chitarra, e fece così rapidi progressi che potè presentarsi al pubblico a Odenburg (= Sopran), nell'ottobre del 1820, con un concerto di F. Ries ed un'improvvisazione. Suonò poi ad Eisenstadt alla presenza del principe Esterhazy che lo invitò per un altro concerto nel proprio palazzo a Pressburg (= Pozsony, od. Bratislava) dove ottenne un così grande successo che alcuni nobili gli garantirono una borsa di Studio per sei anni. Nel 1821 si trasferì con i genitori a Vienna dove fu allievo di C. Czerny per il pianoforte e di A. Salieri per la composizione. Un concerto a Vienna, il 1 XII 1822, gli procurò una notorietà che permise al padre di entrare in contatto con Beethoven dal quale Franz ebbe consigli ed incoraggiamenti. Nell'autunno del 1823 partì col padre per Parigi, fermandosi in molte città tedesche, nelle quali diede concerti. A Parigi Liszt (che aveva 12 anni) si vide rifiutare da Cherubini (in quanto straniero) l'ammissione in conservatorio. Cominciò allora a Studiare privatamente composizione con F. Paer, mentre si faceva conoscere come pianista, ottenendo successi entusiastici. Nel maggio del 1824 fu in Inghilterra, nella primavera del 1825 tenne concerti nella provincia francese, e nel giugno dello stesso anno tornò in Inghilterra, suonando anche al castello di Windsor per Giorgio IV. In ottobre fu eseguita, senza successo, a Parigi, la sua opera Don Sanche; continuarono invece i trionfi pianistici, confermati da un nuovo giro di concerti nella provincia francese ed in Svizzera. -

He composed more than 600 brilliant pieces of music such as sonatas, symphonies, concerti, operas, choral pieces, etc. He traveled with his family to Europe many times and The European style influenced him. He also influenced many later composers including Beethoven. In 1777 and 1778, he traveled to Europe again and he fell in love with Aloysia Weber. However, his mother then got sick and died in the same year. Violin Sonata in E Minor, K.304 is special to Mozart, he wrote it in 1778. That year he had traveled to Mannheim, therefore he must have taken some style from there. Also, it was written around his mother’s death. The sonata K.304 may reflect his sad mood and iv it is the only minor key in his violin sonatas. -
Robert Schumann on the Poems of Heinrich Heine
DICHTERLIEBE opus 48 A Cycle of Sixteen. Songs by Robert Schumann on the poems of Heinrich Heine An Honors Thesis (Honrs 499) by Shawn L. Harrington Thesis Advisor (u,r$/ Mr. John Meadows", . " (! jl'lrli{Lul ~t;(,cY\' Ball State University Muncie, Indiana November, 1995 Expected date of graduation 12/95 !J,:'( ! __ <l !.", .,.' , j:L. ' .. " Purpose of Thesis This project has two components: a written discussion of the music of the Dichterliebe, and the lives of the composer Robert Schumann and the poet Heinrich Heine; and an audio tape of my performance of the Dichterliebe. The performance was the culmination of my study of the Dichterliebe, in particular, and of my voice studies, in general. Through the performance, I set out to share the wonderful music and poetry of the Dichterliebe as well as share my musical and vocal growth over the past four years. The written portion of the project was undertaken to satisfy my personal curiosity of the men who wrote the music and the poetry of the Dichterliebe. A study of the music without knowing the man who composed it or the man who wrote the words would be only half complete at best. Likewise, a study of the men and not the music would also be incomplete. That is why I included both venues of learning and experiencing in this project; and that is why I have included an audio tape of the performance with this written report. Acknowledgements I would like to thank my voice instructor (and thesis advisor), John Meadows. Without his expertise, advise, and instruction, I would not have been able to present the Dichterliebe in a performance. -

In order to make a thorough and clear analysis of this relationship a structural/semiotic analysis has been developed as the analysis of best fit. Historically it has been fashionable to see Liszt's symphonic poems in terms of sonata form or a form only making sense in terms of the attached programme. Both of these ideas are critically examined in this analysis. -

A Dichterliebe by Robert Schumann
,A DICHTERLIEBE BY ROBERT SCHUMANN THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State College in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF MUSIC By Hubert Neil Davidson, B. M. Denton, Texas August, 1957 PREFACE The purpose of this work, an analysis of the song cycle Dichterliebe (Op. 1+8) by Robert Schumann, is to recognize the special features of the songs which will contribute to their understanding and musical interpretation and perform- ance. The Dichterliebe was chosen as the composition to be analyzed because of its prominent position in the vocal lit.- erature of the Romantic period. An acquaintance with the life of the poet, Heinrich Heine, as well as the life of the composer of these songs and their relationship to each other contributes toward an understanding of the cycle. Each of the sixteen songs in the cycle is analyzed according to its most important characteristics, including text setting, general harmonic structure, important role of the accompaniment, expressive techniques, mood, tempo, rhythm, and dynamics. It is not the aim of this work to offer an extensive formal or harmonic analysis of this song cycle. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page PREFACE . iii LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS.... ..... .v Chapter I.

CommEntS by PhilliP huSChEr ne hundred years ago, the Chicago Symphony paid tribute Oto the centenary of the birth of Franz Liszt with the pro- gram of music Riccardo Muti conducts this week to honor the bicentennial of the composer’s birth. Today, Liszt’s stature in the music world seems diminished—his music is not all that regularly performed, aside from a few works, such as the B minor piano sonata, that have never gone out of favor; and he is more a name in the history books than an indispensable part of our concert life. -
