INSIGHTS from Music Director Louis Langree INSIGHTS from Music Director Louis Langree December 5, 2020 Welcome to the final live stream of the CSO’s Fall 2020 digital concert series! All of us at the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra are so thankful that, despite the pandemic, we have been able to present these digital concerts until we can be together again. Let’s end this difficult year on a positive note with a festival of orchestral colors and hidden gems! We begin by uncovering a hidden treasure written by a remarkable (and surprisingly unknown) composer, Marianna Martines (1744-1812). Her family lived in a four-floor building in Vienna: on the first floor, the illustrious princess of the Esterházy family; on the second floor, the Italian singer and composer Nicola Porpora; on the third floor, the Martines family; and on the fourth floor, the young, struggling, poor, freelance, and (at that time) unknown composer by the name of Joseph Haydn. The young Martines became a student of Haydn and Porpora, and, at a young age, she regularly performed at the Imperial court for Empress Maria Theresa. In the prime of her life, Marianna hosted weekly soirées, attended by the musical elite including Haydn, Michael Kelly, and W.A. Mozart, who wrote several four- hand piano sonatas for himself and Marianna. She was ahead of her time: an unmarried career woman who made a living by teaching and composing, was never formally employed by any court, and disseminated over 200 of her own compositions in manuscript form. Sadly, most of this music is lost. In tonight’s performance you will hear her Overture or “Sinfonia” in C major—a “symphony” in three short movements. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s (1756-1791) Piano Concerto No. 12 in A Major is one of my favorites because of its beautiful tenderness and irresistible joy! This piano concerto must have been a favorite of Mozart’s as well, because he often played it, taught it to students, and wrote two complete sets of cadenzas for it. He published this work in three versions: strings plus winds, string orchestra, and string quartet. The latter instrumentation was a marketing strategy to tempt “amateur” musicians into buying this concerto to play with friends. We are thrilled to welcome the wonderful pianist Awadagin Pratt, who chose this concerto to honor the memory of his former mentor, the musical giant Leon Fleisher. Fleisher appeared as soloist and conductor with the CSO many times from 1959 to 2016. Fleisher’s signature piece was Brahms’ Concerto No. 1. Listen closely to Awadagin’s cadenza in the second movement for a touching homage to his mentor’s favorite piece. Maurice Ravel’s (1875-1937) Ma mère l'Oye (“Mother Goose”) was originally written for piano duet in 1910 and orchestrated soon thereafter. Ravel is a magnificent orchestrator who, with only 35 musicians, invites us into a magical atmosphere that is the sonic translation of “once upon a time….” Each of the five movements is a musical depiction of a well-known fairytale. We all know these fairytales, so listen for the roaring of the Beast, the song of twittering birds, the deep sleep of the princess, and the wandering motions of lost children. On a final note, I am personally grateful to the musicians of the Orchestra for their positivity, dedication, and courage during this unprecedented time. It is my deep honor and pleasure to work with them. And we are all thankful for you, our audience, for watching each of our digital concerts and for your deep appreciation for your Orchestra. I leave you with my best wishes for a happy, healthy, and pandemic-free New Year in 2021. Until we meet again, stay safe and be well. .

A. Mozart’s opera and concert arias for tenor are among the first music written specifically for this voice type as it is understood today, and they form an essential pillar of the pedagogy and repertoire for the modern tenor voice. Yet while the opera arias have received a great deal of attention from scholars of the vocal literature, the concert arias have been comparatively overlooked; they are neglected also in relation to their counterparts for soprano, about which a great deal has been written. There has been some pedagogical discussion of the tenor concert arias in relation to the correction of vocal faults, but otherwise they have received little scrutiny. This is surprising, not least because in most cases Mozart’s concert arias were composed for singers with whom he also worked in the opera house, and Mozart always paid close attention to the particular capabilities of the musicians for whom he wrote: these arias offer us unusually intimate insights into how a first-rank composer explored and shaped the potential of the newly-emerging voice type of the modern tenor voice.

Diplomats as Musical Agents in the Age of Haydn by Mark Ferraguto Abstract Vienna’s embassies were major centers of musical activity throughout the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Resident diplomats, in addition to being patrons and performers, often acted as musical agents, facilitating musical interactions within and between courts, among individuals and firms, and in their private salons. Through these varied activities, they played a vital role in shaping a transnational European musical culture.

W. NORTON AND COMPANY NEW YORK ē LONDON W. W. Norton & Company has been independent since its founding in 1923, when William Warder Norton and Mary D. Herter Norton first published lectures delivered at the People’s Institute, the adult education division of New York City’s Cooper Union. The firm soon expanded its program beyond the Institute, publishing books by celebrated academics from America and abroad. By midcentury, the two major pillars of Norton’s publishing program— trade books and college texts—were firmly established. In the 1950s, the Norton family transferred control of the company to its employees, and today—with a staff of four hundred and a comparable number of trade, college, and professional titles published each year—W.

Translating, Adapting, And Performing Opera In Eighteenth-Century Cosmopolitan Europe: Lorenzo Da Ponte At The King's Theatre Abstract This dissertation examines music and text circulation in cosmopolitan Europe during the last decades of the eighteenth century through the lens of translation. London in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries was the largest center of Italian operatic performance outside of Italy. All performances sung at the King’s Theatre, London, were sung in Italian, the presumed language of opera, even when the works had been originated in other languages. This created the need for a culture of translation and adaptation of works from abroad, making them suitable for a London audience partially through the retention of foreignness and partially through domesticating practices. In the 1790s, a period of political tension between Britain and post-Revolution France, four French operas were presented at the King's Theatre in Italian translations attributed to the poet Lorenzo Da Ponte (1749-1838): Gluck's Iphig�nie en Tauride, Gr�try's Z�mire et Azor, Monsigny's La belle Ars�ne, and Sacchini's Arvire et �v�lina.

  • Music in the Classical Era (Mus 7754)
    MUSIC IN THE CLASSICAL ERA (MUS 7754) LOUISIANA STATE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF MUSIC & DRAMATIC ARTS FALL 2016 instructor Dr. Blake Howe ([email protected]) M&DA 274 meetings Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, 9:30–10:20 M&DA 221 office hours Fridays, 8:30–9:30, or by appointment prerequisite Students must have passed either the Music History Diagnostic Exam or MUS 3710. Howe / MUS 7754 Syllabus / 2 GENERAL INFORMATION COURSE OBJECTIVES This course pursues the diversity of musical life in the eighteenth century, examining the styles, genres, forms, and performance practices that have retrospectively been labeled “Classical.” We consider the epicenter of this era to be the mid eighteenth century (1720–60), with the early eighteenth century as its most logical antecedent, and the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century as its profound consequent. Our focus is on the interaction of French, Italian, and Viennese musical traditions, but our journey will also include detours to Spain and England. Among the core themes of our history are • the conflict between, and occasional synthesis of, French and Italian styles (or, rather, what those styles came to symbolize) • the increasing independence of instrumental music (symphony, keyboard and accompanied sonata, concerto) and its incorporation of galant and empfindsam styles • the expansion and dramatization of binary forms, eventually resulting in what will later be termed “sonata form” • signs of wit, subjectivity, and the sublime in music of the “First Viennese Modernism” (Haydn, Mozart, early Beethoven). We will seek new critical and analytical readings of well-known composers from this period (Beethoven, Gluck, Haydn, Mozart, Pergolesi, Scarlatti) and introduce ourselves to the music of some lesser-known figures (Alberti, Boccherini, Bologne, Cherubini, Dussek, Galuppi, Gossec, Hasse, Hiller, Hopkinson, Jommelli, Piccinni, Rousseau, Sammartini, Schobert, Soler, Stamitz, Vanhal, and Vinci, plus at least two of J.

Der weitgereiste Musikgelehrte traf sie im Salon des Hofdichters Metastasio, berichtete über sie in seinem Tagebuch einer musikalischen Reise und nannte sie nicht nur die „vollkommenste Sängerin […], die ich jemals gehört hatte“, sondern rühmte auch ihre „meisterhafte Art“ am Cembalo und ließ sich Eigenkompositionen von ihr vorspielen: „Sie übertraf wirklich noch die Erwartung, die man mir von ihr beigebracht hatte. Sie sang zwo Arien von ihrer eignen Komposition über Worte von Metastasio, wozu sie sich selbst auf dem Flügel akkompagnierte, und zwar auf eine wohlverstandne, meisterhafte Manier; und aus der Art, wie sie die Ritornelle spielte, konnte ich urteilen, dass sie sehr fertige Finger hätte.“ Im Jahr darauf wurde Marianna Martines als erste Frau in die prestigeträchtige Accademia Filarmonica in Bologna aufgenommen.
