  • ARSC Journal
    A Discography of the Choral Symphony by J. F. Weber In previous issues of this Journal (XV:2-3; XVI:l-2), an effort was made to compile parts of a composer discography in depth rather than breadth. This one started in a similar vein with the realization that SO CDs of the Beethoven Ninth Symphony had been released (the total is now over 701). This should have been no surprise, for writers have stated that the playing time of the CD was designed to accommodate this work. After eighteen months' effort, a reasonably complete discography of the work has emerged. The wonder is that it took so long to collect a body of information (especially the full names of the vocalists) that had already been published in various places at various times. The Japanese discographers had made a good start, and some of their data would have been difficult to find otherwise, but quite a few corrections and additions have been made and some recording dates have been obtained that seem to have remained 1.Dlpublished so far. The first point to notice is that six versions of the Ninth didn't appear on the expected single CD. Bl:lhm (118) and Solti (96) exceeded the 75 minutes generally assumed (until recently) to be the maximum CD playing time, but Walter (37), Kegel (126), Mehta (127), and Thomas (130) were not so burdened and have been reissued on single CDs since the first CD release. On the other hand, the rather short Leibowitz (76), Toscanini (11), and Busch (25) versions have recently been issued with fillers.

    Josef Tal on the Cusp of Israeli Statehood, or, The Simultaneity of Adjacency and Oppositionality Assaf Shelleg Acta Musicologica, Volume 91, Number 2, 2019, pp. 146-167 (Article) Published by International Musicological Society For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/741611 Access provided at 28 Nov 2019 16:05 GMT from Tel Aviv University i i i i Josef Tal on the Cusp of Israeli Statehood, or, The Simultaneity of Adjacency and Oppositionality Assaf Shelleg Jerusalem To the amateur composer who comes to this country with an inheritance of Russian of Balkan folk tunes, the absorption of the Oriental Jewish and Arabian music is a gain. The traditionalism of his original country receives a new accent. To the professional composer whose material is the European art-music, the Jewish and Arab-Palestinian folklore opens up a fertile and rejuvenating world. A few will attach certain ourishes, some popular syl- lables to the iron structure of modern art-language; in other words they write a kind of “quotation-music” with wrong notes.1 [Sharett’s music] demonstrates neither melodic templates in their conven- tional form nor harmonies using parallel fourths and fths mixed with seconds—a falsied acoustic substitute; nor is there any articial immer- sion in the past in the form of shallow mimicry of biblical chants. We must not follow the easy path of success, but rather aspire to achieve in our spiritual creation what we had accomplished politically.2 The statements “‘quotation music’ with wrong notes,” “fal- sied acoustics,” and “shallow mimicry of biblical chants” could have equally come from either of the composers, Stefan Wolpe or Josef Tal.

  • A Culture of Recording: Christopher Raeburn and the Decca Record Company
    A Culture of Recording: Christopher Raeburn and the Decca Record Company Sally Elizabeth Drew A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Sheffield Faculty of Arts and Humanities Department of Music This work was supported by the Arts & Humanities Research Council September 2018 1 2 Abstract This thesis examines the working culture of the Decca Record Company, and how group interaction and individual agency have made an impact on the production of music recordings. Founded in London in 1929, Decca built a global reputation as a pioneer of sound recording with access to the world’s leading musicians. With its roots in manufacturing and experimental wartime engineering, the company developed a peerless classical music catalogue that showcased technological innovation alongside artistic accomplishment. This investigation focuses specifically on the contribution of the recording producer at Decca in creating this legacy, as can be illustrated by the career of Christopher Raeburn, the company’s most prolific producer and specialist in opera and vocal repertoire. It is the first study to examine Raeburn’s archive, and is supported with unpublished memoirs, private papers and recorded interviews with colleagues, collaborators and artists. Using these sources, the thesis considers the history and functions of the staff producer within Decca’s wider operational structure in parallel with the personal aspirations of the individual in exerting control, choice and authority on the process and product of recording. Having been recruited to Decca by John Culshaw in 1957, Raeburn’s fifty-year career spanned seminal moments of the company’s artistic and commercial lifecycle: from assisting in exploiting the dramatic potential of stereo technology in Culshaw’s Ring during the 1960s to his serving as audio producer for the 1990 The Three Tenors Concert international phenomenon.

  • Marie Collier: a Life
    Marie Collier: a life Kim Kemmis A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History The University of Sydney 2018 Figure 1. Publicity photo: the housewife diva, 3 July 1965 (Alamy) i Abstract The Australian soprano Marie Collier (1927-1971) is generally remembered for two things: for her performance of the title role in Puccini’s Tosca, especially when she replaced the controversial singer Maria Callas at late notice in 1965; and her tragic death in a fall from a window at the age of forty-four. The focus on Tosca, and the mythology that has grown around the manner of her death, have obscured Collier’s considerable achievements. She sang traditional repertoire with great success in the major opera houses of Europe, North and South America and Australia, and became celebrated for her pioneering performances of twentieth-century works now regularly performed alongside the traditional canon. Collier’s experiences reveal much about post-World War II Australian identity and cultural values, about the ways in which the making of opera changed throughout the world in the 1950s and 1960s, and how women negotiated their changing status and prospects through that period. She exercised her profession in an era when the opera industry became globalised, creating and controlling an image of herself as the ‘housewife-diva’, maintaining her identity as an Australian artist on the international scene, and developing a successful career at the highest level of her artform while creating a fulfilling home life. This study considers the circumstances and mythology of Marie Collier’s death, but more importantly shows her as a woman of the mid-twentieth century navigating the professional and personal spheres to achieve her vision of a life that included art, work and family.

  • A Librettist's Reflections on Opera in Our Times
    Israel Eliraz A LIBRETTIST'S REFLECTIONS ON OPERA IN OUR TIMES [1] Pierre Boulez may have mourned the death of the opera and suggested setting fire to opera houses (he has repented since and has even written in this rnusical form himsel~, but the Old Lady is still going strong. She is no Ionger as regal and as much admired as in the 18th century, nor is she as popular and vital as she was in mid-I9th century for bold young rivals have entered the arena: film, radio, musicals and television. But reviewing the new operas written in this century, from MOSES UND ARON by Schoenberg and WOZZECK by Berg, to works by Luigi Dallapiccola, lldebrando Pizzetti, Werner Egk, Marcel Delannoy and others, one is taken by surprise by the abundance, versatility and ingenuity in musical, theatrical and ideological terms, of modern opera. What the rnusical avant -garde considered a defunct creature, a 'dinosaur' of sorts (this strange animal is over 370 years old), became, to their dismay, a phoenix redux. At tirnes it metarnorphosed into political drarna (Weiii-Brecht); at others it returned to the oratory form (Stravinsky, Honegger, Debussy), and on still other occasions it turns upon itself with laudable irony, as in Mauricio Kagel's STAATSTHEATER. Anylhing can happen in an opera, all is allowed and, if one rnay venture to express some optirnisrn - which is not easy in our province - it still has some surprises in store for us. [2] Music Iovers have been accustorned to think that it is in the nature of opera to address the 'larger issues'- biblical, rnylhological, historical, national.
