HARDMAN PIANO Is always on the tip of the tongue whenever Pianos are thought of. Now, this universal knowledge of a few makes is not alone the result of advertising. All makes of pianos are advertised. It is their presence in thousands of homes, their intimate association with the daily lives of their owners and their friends for many years, that causes this general familiarity with the few well-known makes. The Hardman Piano is an inherent part of our national home life. And nothing but its oivn intrinsic qualities of superiority could ever have made it so. Do you realize that in buying a Hardman Piano you are not paying extra for a name ? That a " Hardman," with all that the name implies of high musical quality, durability, and reputation, can be bought at as moderate a price as hundreds of makes whose names you never heard A call at our warerooms will be a revelation to you in piano values. cAll makes of pianos taken in exchange.

Hermann Bischoff (Now living in Munich.) Mr. Bischoff's name does not appear in the latest German encyclo- paedias of music. The composer was invited two months ago to send a sketch of his life for publication in the programme book. Nothing has been heard from him. Yet it may here be stated that in 1887 he was a student at the Leipsic Conservatory of Music, where he took lessons of Jadassohn in composition. At a Gewandhaus concert,' as the story goes, he heard Richard Strauss's Symphony in F minor, and he was so impressed by it that he sought the composer out, and, while he did not actually take lessons in theory and composition of him, he was associated inti- mately with him for three years in the study of scores and in the discussion of music. His home is in Munich. Among Bischoff's chief works are: "Gewittersegen," for tenor voice, organ, and orchestra, Op. 9, a composition to which a prize of three hundred marks was awarded by the Allgemeiner Deutscher Musikverein. It was performed at a concert of the thirty-fifth convention of this society at Dortmund in May, 1899. The singer was Forchhammer. The text of this piece, which has the sub-title, " Psalm zwischen Wolken," is by Richard Dehmel. "Pan," an idyl for orchestra, Op. 14, played by the Kaim Orchestra, led by Sigismund von Hausegger, and performed at a concert of the thirty-eighth convention of the Allgemeiner Deutscher Musikverein, at Krefeld in June, 1902. This idyl is a musical illustration of Turge- neff's prose poem, "The Nymphs," the thirteenth of "Petits Poemes en Prose" in the edition entitled "Souvenirs d'Enfance" and published by Hetzel and Company in Paris.

When a customer enters any of the other stores and inquires, " Do you keep the Pianola ?" the salesman is in honor bound to reply, " No, we do not." Of course, there is no law to prevent his adding, " We keep the Piano-player, which we claim is just as good," etc. But ordinary commercial fairness demands that he sjiall not permit the customer to buy some other piano-player under the mistaken impression that it is the genuine Pianola. We learn that there are some stores that are not so scrupulous as they should be in observing this principle. Consequently we are compelled to advertise over and over again : There is but one Pianola. Sold in Philadelphia and Surrounding Territory AT HEPPE'S ONLY If the word Pianola does not appear on the fall-board of the instrument, it is not a Pianola. The supremacy of the Pianola and Pianola Piano is so universally recognized that it is a constant temptation to other Piano-players to operate under its prestige. C. J.

  • Berg's Worlds
    Copyrighted Material Berg’s Worlds CHRISTOPHER HAILEY Vienna is not the product of successive ages but a layered composite of its accumulated pasts. Geography has made this place a natural crossroads, a point of cultural convergence for an array of political, economic, religious, and ethnic tributaries. By the mid-nineteenth century the city’s physical appearance and cultural characteristics, its customs and conventions, its art, architecture, and literature presented a collage of disparate historical elements. Gothic fervor and Renaissance pomp sternly held their ground against flights of rococo whimsy, and the hedonistic theatricality of the Catholic Baroque took the pious folk culture from Austria’s alpine provinces in worldly embrace. Legends of twice-repelled Ottoman invasion, dreams of Holy Roman glories, scars of ravaging pestilence and religious perse- cution, and the echoes of a glittering congress that gave birth to the post-Napoleonic age lingered on amid the smug comforts of Biedermeier domesticity. The city’s medieval walls had given way to a broad, tree-lined boulevard, the Ringstrasse, whose eclectic gallery of historical styles was not so much a product of nineteenth-century historicist fantasy as the styl- ized expression of Vienna’s multiple temporalities. To be sure, the regulation of the Danube in the 1870s had channeled and accelerated its flow and introduced an element of human agency, just as the economic boom of the Gründerzeit had introduced opportunities and perspectives that instilled in Vienna’s citizens a new sense of physical and social mobility. But on the whole, the Vienna that emerged from the nineteenth century lacked the sense of open-ended promise that charac- terized the civic identities of midwestern American cities like Chicago or St.

  • Richard Strauss
    RICHARD STRAUSS: The Origin, Dissemination and Reception of his Mozart Renaissance Raymond lIolden I I \,--,~/ PhD Goldsmiths' College University of London 1 Abstract Richard Strauss holds an important place in the history of performance. Of the major musical figures active during the second half of the nineteenth and the first half of the twentieth centuries, his endeavours as a Mozartian are of particular importance. Strauss' special interest in the works of Mozart was seminal to both his performance and compositional aesthetics. As a result of this affinity, Strauss consciously set out to initiate a Mozart renaissance that embodied a precise set of principles and reforms. It was these principles and reforms, described as literalist, rather than those of artists such .as Gustav Mahler, who edited Mozart's works both musically and dramatically, that found further expression in the readings of, amongst others, Otto Klemperer, George Szell, Sir John Pritchard and Wolfgang Sawallisch. It is the aim of this dissertation to investigate Strauss' activities as a Mozartian and to assess his influence on subsequent generations of Mozart conductors. Accordingly, the dissertation is divided into an Introduction, five chapters, a Conclusion and thirteen appendices. These consider both the nature and ramifications of Strauss' reforms and performance aesthetic. Within this framework, the breadth of his renaissance; his choice of edition, cuts and revisions; his use of tempo, as a means of structural delineation; his activities with respect to the

  • Musica Classica E La Musica Popolare Lasciandosi Influenzare Dalla Musica Barocca Sia Di Antonio Vivaldi Sia Di Arcangelo Corelli
    CABA, EDUARDO (compositore) Nato a Potosì nel 1890 è considerato uno dei compositori più prolifici e ispirati della musica boliviana. Apprese dalla madre le prime lezioni di pianoforte, fino a quando nel 1926 si trasferì a Buenos Aires per continuare lo studio con il maestro Felipe Boero. Nel 1927 ritornò al paese. Il governo gli concesse una borsa di studio in Spagna dove completò la sua formazione con Joaquín Turina Pérez Casas. Eduardo Caba laureato in scienza musicale, combinando e armonizzando i suoni, si creò una tecnica impressionante che in seguito applicò per strutturare la melodia e il ritmo del genere indigeno, avendo cura di sdrammatizzare le basi. Nel 1942 il Maestro Eduardo Caba è nominato direttore del Conservatorio Nazionale di Musica nella città di La Paz. Il lavoro di questo compositore di talento si basa principalmente sulla creazione di un nuovo stile di espressione nei temi andini ascoltati nella "18 Aires Indios" delle sue poesie per flauto e orchestra chiamata "Qena", "Legend quechua" inno al sole " il balletto" Kollana "; Pantomime "Potosi " opere popolari: " Kollavina" "Korikilla" "Fiore di bronzo" "Romancillo " e altri. Secondo pareri del Maestro Caba, le opere musicali della sua ispirazione facevano parte della sensazione della sua anima, del suo cuore, e frammenti della sua vita, ma soprattutto il grande amore che aveva per il suo paese.

  • Emmanuel Chabrier, Une Biographie De Francis Poulenc Michel Burgard
    Emmanuel Chabrier, une biographie de Francis Poulenc Michel Burgard À la mémoire du Professeur François Roth, notre confrère, notre ami. Quand on apprécie les surprises routières, il est un endroit où l’on ne peut pas être déçu. Partez de Montbrison, Loire, ville natale de Pierre Boulez, et rendez vous à Ambert, Puy-de-Dôme, célèbre pour sa ronde mairie, celle autour de laquelle tournent Les Copains de Jules Romains et pour son compositeur, Emmanuel Chabrier. Quand il écrit son petit ouvrage, publié à La Palatine en 1961, Françis Poulenc ne tient pas à « faire de la musicologie » : Olivier Messiaen aurait dit : « Je ne suis pas ornithologue, je suis oiseau ». Poulenc aurait pu dire : « Je ne suis pas musicologue, je suis musicien ». Ricardo Viñes, son maître, et Marcelle Meyer, pianistes, « inoubliables interprètes de Chabrier », en reçoivent la dédicace. Le but de son écrit ? D’une haute ambition ! « Faire aimer autant qu’admirer ce musicien de première grandeur. » Ses pairs ? Debussy, Ravel, logiquement, Satie. L’école d’Arcueil jouxte le groupe des Six. Plus surprenant, Gabriel Fauré. Le portrait qu’il trace, d’une plume pittoresque, use de termes auvergnats : « bougnat » « foutrauds », entendez « originaux ». Il souligne aussi le contraste entre le négligé de la caricature de Detaille et le portrait soigné du fonctionnaire de la toile du Louvre, Chabrier travaillant alors, après sa licence en droit, au bureau des ampliations ( !) du ministère de l’Intérieur. Ami personnel de Monet, Manet, Renoir, Sisley, dont il possédait des toiles, il n’a jamais établi de correspondances entre peinture et musique dans son œuvre.

  • HOLLIS, DEBORAH LEE, DMA Orchestral Color in Richard Strauss's Lieder
    HOLLIS, DEBORAH LEE, D.M.A. Orchestral Color in Richard Strauss’s Lieder: Enhancing Performance Choices of All of Strauss’s Lieder through a Study of His Orchestrated Lieder. (2009) Directed by Dr. James Douglass. 83 pp. Strauss was a major composer of Lieder , with more than 200 published songs composed between 1870 and 1948, many of which belong to the standard song repertoire. Strauss’s lieder are distinctive because they reflect his simultaneous preoccupation with composing tone poems and operas. The vocal lines are declamatory, dramatic, and lyrical, while the accompaniments are richly textured. Strauss learned the craft of orchestration through studying scores of the masters, playing in orchestras, conducting, and through exposure to prominent composers. Equally important was his affiliation with leading figures of the New German School including Liszt, Wagner, and Berlioz. Berlioz used the expressive characteristics of the orchestral instruments as the primary inspiration for his compositions. Like Berlioz, Strauss used tone color as a crucial element that gave expression to poetic ideas in his symphonic works, operas, and songs. Strauss’s approach to orchestration gives insight into ways that a collaborative pianist may use tone color to enhance renderings of all of the composer’s lieder. In this study, I use my own analysis of Strauss’s orchestrations of his songs, as well as Strauss’s statements in his revision of Berlioz’s Treatise on Instrumentation , to show how his orchestrations bring out important aspects of the songs, clarifying and enriching their meaning. I further show how collaborative pianists can emulate these orchestral effects at the keyboard using specific techniques of touch, pedal, and phrasing, thereby rendering each song richer and more meaningful.
