Together with Three Recitals of Selected Works of Stravinsky. Hanson. Martin Mailman, Hoist and Walton. Doctor of Musical Arts (Conducting), August 1995, 76 pp., 2 appendices, bibliography, 62 titles. An interpretive approach to performing two works by Franz Krommer for wind ensemble. Including a short history of Harmoniemusik, with origins, development, and chronology of the instruments and repertoire, the roles of "better-known" composers of Harmoniemusik, and its importance in both general music history and history of the wind band. An account of known biographical detail concerning Franz Krommer, his life, his musical involvement and career in Europe, and his place in music history. An overview of his compositions for wind groups other than the Harmoniemusik, including his symphonic music and concertos. Detailed analyses of the two octet-partitas, Partita in F, Op. 57 and Partita in E-flat, Op. 79, with discussion of thematic, harmonic, melodic, articulation, and formal characteristics illustrated through score examples. Examination of issues for a conductor to consider when approaching a performance of these works such as instrumentation (modern vs. period instruments, selecting 16-foot instrument), taking (or not taking) repeats with respect to form, interpreting articulations, determining metronomic tempos, ensemble balance, and style based on wind music of the Classical period. Also, how this music can (and why it should) be used by wind conductors as both a teaching supplement and a compositional model for pieces from the Classical period. Conclusion includes a call for further research on Krommer and his works.

  • Art Or Craft? – Significance of the Sociological Background in the Artistic Development of the Harmoniemusik
    MUSICOLOGICA BRUNENSIA 47, 2012, 1 MIKOŁAJ RYKOWSKI ART OR CRAFT? – SIGNIFICANCE OF THE SOCIOLOGICAL BACKGROUND IN THE ARTISTIC DEVELOPMENT OF THE HARMONIEMUSIK Harmoniemusik phenomenon has emerged in the most important 18th and 19th century domains of the musical life. It were aristocratic court, church circle and military service where these ensembles containing usually 2 cl., 2 ob., 2 cr., 2 bs. where active. Geographically these musical practise was spread out among many countries, but their so called ‘homeland’ was Holy Roman Empire territory (altough Moravian emigrants applied this music to Bethlehem parish in North America). Stylistically, existing repertoire embodies wide range of Wind Harmo- ny pieces where often in one musical centre it possible to notice that at particular period of time performed simple, garden-like, background music and artistically significant examples of the concert music. A matter of whether Harmoniemusik presents more art or craft is is concerned more to provoke a discussion about its multicontextual functioning rather than expecting white-or-black answers. It is a very important origin of the entire development that its musical condition depended almost fully on sociological background. Artistic judgment of these music should be provided regarding the fact that Wind Harmony came into appearance in various sociological contexts. Moreover, a certain role in sociological sphere required usage of adequate formal devices such as march-like opening movement for army band or dance music as characteristic for music played in aristocratic chambers. It is interesting to ob- serve in which way all these environments influenced the complexity and content of Harmoniemusik repertoire. The 18th century patronage of the army, court and church and its influence ex- erted over the artistic picture of wind ensembles appeared with different intensity.

  • Oboe Trios: an Annotated Bibliography
    Oboe Trios: An Annotated Bibliography by Melissa Sassaman A Research Paper Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts Approved November 2014 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Martin Schuring, Chair Elizabeth Buck Amy Holbrook Gary Hill ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY December 2014 ABSTRACT This project is a practical annotated bibliography of original works for oboe trio with the specific instrumentation of two oboes and English horn. Presenting descriptions of 116 readily available oboe trios, this project is intended to promote awareness, accessibility, and performance of compositions within this genre. The annotated bibliography focuses exclusively on original, published works for two oboes and English horn. Unpublished works, arrangements, works that are out of print and not available through interlibrary loan, or works that feature slightly altered instrumentation are not included. Entries in this annotated bibliography are listed alphabetically by the last name of the composer. Each entry includes the dates of the composer and a brief biography, followed by the title of the work, composition date, commission, and dedication of the piece. Also included are the names of publishers, the length of the entire piece in minutes and seconds, and an incipit of the first one to eight measures for each movement of the work. In addition to providing a comprehensive and detailed bibliography of oboe trios, this document traces the history of the oboe trio and includes biographical sketches of each composer cited, allowing readers to place the genre of oboe trios and each individual composition into its historical context. Four appendices at the end include a list of trios arranged alphabetically by composer’s last name, chronologically by the date of composition, and by country of origin and a list of publications of Ludwig van Beethoven's oboe trios from the 1940s and earlier.

  • LOUIS SPOHR and the METRONOME a Contribution to Early Nineteenth-Century Performance Practice
    LOUIS SPOHR AND THE METRONOME A contribution to early nineteenth-century performance practice by I)r. Martin WulfhorstO This article was previously published in Henryk Wieniawski: Composer and Virtuoso in the Musical Culture of the XIX and XX Centuries, ed. Maciej Jabloriski and Danuta Jasiislra, Poznai: Rltytmos, 2001, pp. i,89-205, ISBN $-9A8462-6-8. N 1763 James Watt developedthe steam engine, in1767 James Hargreaves constructed the spinning jenny and in 1768 Richard Arkwright introduced the spinning frame (Devms 1997: page 680, see bibliography below). Machines triggered a transformation of all economic and social structures that proved more radical than was ever believed possible and it was only natr,ral that musicians too showed a keen interest in various mechanical devices. The Viennese mechanic Johann Nepomuk Maelzel (1772-1838), for instance, invented a Panharmonikon, for which Beethoven composed Wellingtons Sieg oder Die Schlacht bei Vittoria Op.91in 1813 (ANoN. 1813a). But whereas such attempts to replace human per{ormers with machines were shortlived, another mechanical device invented at about the same time and associated with the name of Maelzel has exerted a profound impact on performances to the present day - the metronome. The success of the mechanical metronome stemmed from the fact that its invention coincided with the advent of the modern aesthetics of mwical interpretation, which subordinated the performance to the composition, left fewer and fewer aspects of the composition to the discretion of the player, singer or conductor, and led composers to search for new methods and tools to speci$ their intentions as clearly and precisely as possible.

    HEINRICH WILHELM ERNST: COMPLETE MUSIC, VOLUME 5 by Mark Rowe Heinrich Wilhelm Ernst was one of the most important performers of the nineteenth century. Joachim said he was ‘the greatest violinist I ever heard; he towered above the others’,1 and Berlioz described him as ‘a great musician as well as a great violinist […,] the complete rounded artist, profoundly and predominantly expressive in all he does’.2 As a violinist, Ernst was notable primarily for his stupendous technique, his intense and melancholic expressivity, his capricious sense of humour, and a tone which came remarkably close to the human voice. As a musician, he was celebrated chiefly for his contributions to chamber music – giving many public performances of Beethoven’s late quartets at a time when they were widely considered the final ramblings of a madman. As a composer, his importance is threefold: he wrote two of the most popular works of the nineteenth century (the Elegy, Op. 10, and his variations on the Carnival of Venice, Op. 18); he pushed violin technique beyond the boundaries established by Paganini, particularly in the area of left-hand pizzicato and polyphonic playing; and he wrote two violin pieces of real significance – the Concerto Pathétique in F sharp minor, Op. 23 (the form of which had a profound influence on Liszt’s B minor Piano Sonata), and the Polyphonic Studies (which lead directly into Ysaÿe’s Sonates pour violon seul). Ernst was born in Brünn (now Brno) in 1812, and when his talent proved too much for local teachers, he transferred to Vienna in 1825.

    WENZEL HEINRICH VEIT: COMPLETE STRING QUARTETS VOLUME ONE: QUARTETS NOS. 1 AND 2 by Markéta Kabelková and Aleš Březina Te first half of the nineteenth century saw a change from old to new forms of musical life. Performances accessible to the general public were increasingly promoted, and from the third quarter of the eighteenth century public concerts and publicly accessible musical theatres began to be developed. A lively and diverse cultural environment tends to emerge in places that are not only strong economically – that is, have a solid, educated middle class – but also have an existing cultural tradition. Although Prague was at that time the capital of the Czech kingdom and as such part of the Hapsburg monarchy, no ruler resided within the city, which therefore lacked the cultural life associated with a royal court. It was nonetheless an important European musical centre – the most important in Bohemia – and a popular stop for musicians on their concert tours. In 1810 the ‘Jednota pro zvelebení hudby v Čechách’ (‘Association for the Promotion of Music in Bohemia’) was established there and, only one year later, the Prague Conservatoire was founded, becoming the first professional training institution for musicians in central Europe. New forms of social life influenced demand for certain types of music, particularly smaller-scale compositions (songs, piano pieces and choruses). Larger instrumental compositions– such as symphonies, concertos and chamber music (which at that time was not intended for public concerts but to be played for smaller audiences) – were far less popular in Bohemia during the first half of the nineteenth century.
