    Journal of Science and Arts Supplement at No. 2(13), pp. 157-161, 2010 THE CLARINET IN THE CHAMBER MUSIC OF THE 20TH CENTURY FELIX CONSTANTIN GOLDBACH Valahia University of Targoviste, Faculty of Science and Arts, Arts Department, 130024, Targoviste, Romania Abstract. The beginning of the 20th century lay under the sign of the economic crises, caused by the great World Wars. Along with them came state reorganizations and political divisions. The most cruel realism, of the unimaginable disasters, culminating with the nuclear bombs, replaced, to a significant extent, the European romanticism and affected the cultural environment, modifying viewpoints, ideals, spiritual and philosophical values, artistic domains. The art of the sounds developed, being supported as well by the multiple possibilities of recording and world distribution, generated by the inventions of this epoch, an excessively technical one, the most important ones being the cinema, the radio, the television and the recordings – electronic or on tape – of the creations and interpretations. Keywords: chamber music of the 20th century, musical styles, cultural tradition. 1. INTRODUCTION Despite all the vicissitudes, music continued to ennoble the human souls. The study of the instruments’ construction features, of the concert halls, the investigation of the sound and the quality of the recordings supported the formation of a series of high-quality performers and the attainment of high performance levels. The international contests organized on instruments led to a selection of the values of the interpretative art. So, the exceptional professional players are no longer rarities. 2. DISCUSSIONS The economic development of the United States of America after the two World Wars, the cultural continuity in countries with tradition, such as England and France, the fast restoration of the West European states, including Germany, represented conditions that allowed the flourishing of musical education.

  • The Clarinetist-Composers of Nineteenth-Century Italy: an Examination of Style, Repertoire and Pedagogy
    The Clarinetist-Composers of Nineteenth-Century Italy: An Examination of Style, Repertoire and Pedagogy ClarinetFest® 2006 Michael Thrasher Since the eighteenth century, clarinetists who also functioned as composers have made many contributions to the instrument’s repertoire. For example, Joseph Beer, one of the first great clarinet virtuosos, also wrote several clarinet concertos as well as a variety of chamber works. Franz Tausch, the prominent German clarinetist and teacher, is known to have produced two solo concertos, two double concertos, and an extensive repertoire of duos, trios, and quartets. In addition to solo and chamber works, many clarinetists also produced pedagogical literature, following a great tradition of teachers creating the specific music their pupils would study. Although many such works amount to simple, harmonically-driven exercises, a large body of études, caprices, duos, and accompanied solos also exists, representing music of artistic merit, and reflecting the unique voice of the region and time period in which it was produced. A “clarinetist-composer” brings a unique perspective to his or her works. Early clarinetists, such as Beer and Tausch, undoubtedly wrote new works at least partially out of necessity; even as late as 1800, the instrument’s repertoire was remarkably small. Nevertheless, due to their understanding of the most intimate details of clarinet performance, clarinetists themselves may be among the most qualified to write idiomatic works for the instrument. The clarinet came to prominence in Italy rather early in its history. In a 1716 oratorio, Vivaldi included parts for two “clareni” – possibly the earliest orchestral use of the clarinet. In 1770, the Neapolitan composer Gregorio Sciroli wrote what may be the earliest sonata for the clarinet.
