IN 1812 Schubert wrote an overture in D; in September, 1816, one in B-flat major; in May, 1817, one in D major and two " in the Italian style " — one in D major (September, 1817) and one in C major (No- vember, 1817) ; in 1819 one in E minor.* Rossini's music became the rage in Vienna in 1817 — his " L'Inganno Felice " and " Tancredi " were produced there late in 1816; " Ultaliana in Algeri" February 1, 1817, and "Giro in Babilonia" on June 18, 1817. There was a story, which still survives, that Schubert after a per- formance of " Tancredi " and before supper, irritated by some one praising extravagantly Rossini's overtures, said that he could write then and there an overture in imitation of Rossini's style, to prove how easy it was to compose in that manner. This story led Mr. Henry Frederick Frost in his Life of Schubert (1881) to comment on the " strange insensibility of one musical genius towards the art work of * This overture in E minor was performed in Boston by the Boston Symphony Orchestra on November 24, 1888, and on February 28, 1903.

" The story told about the origin of the two " Italian overtures is as false as the one to the effect that Beethoven refused to see Rossini when the latter called on him at Vienna in 1822. Schubert was an ardent admirer of Rossini. According to Spaun, he found " The Barber of Seville " a delightful opera; in a letter to Hiittenbrenner (May 19, 1819) he wrote: " No one can deny Rossini genius." * He said of Rossini: " ' Otello ' is far better and more characteristic than ' Tancredi/ His orchestration is often most original, and so is his melody; and except the usual Italian gallopades and a few reminiscences of ' Tancredi there is nothing for objection." " Otello" was produced at Vienna in January, 1819, the month before that in which Schubert's overture in E minor was composed. Nor was Schubert influenced by Rossini only in the two overtures. The influence is shown, as Sir George Grove pointed out, in his Sixth Symphony (1818) , in two Marches, Op. 121, the Finale to the Quartet in G, Op. 161. One of Schubert's " Italian " overtures was played at Vienna in 1818. The "Wiener Theater-Zeitung " found it "wonderfully de- See " Franz Schubert " by Richard Heuberger (Berlin, 1902).

  • Historie Der Rheinischen Musikschule Teil 1 Mit Einem Beitrag Von Professor Heinrich Lindlahr
    Historie der Rheinischen Musikschule Teil 1 Mit einem Beitrag von Professor Heinrich Lindlahr Zur Geschichte des Musikschulwesens in Köln 1815 - 1925 Zu Beginn des musikfreundlichen 19. Jahrhunderts blieb es in Köln bei hochfliegenden Plänen und deren erfolgreicher Verhinderung. 1815, Köln zählte etwa fünfundzwanzigtausend Seelen, die soeben, wie die Bewohner der Rheinprovinz insgesamt, beim Wiener Kongreß an das Königreich Preußen gefallen waren, 1815 also hatte von Köln aus ein ungenannter Musikenthusiast für die Rheinmetropole eine Ausbildungsstätte nach dem Vorbild des Conservatoire de Paris gefordert. Sein Vorschlag erschien in der von Friedrich Rochlitz herausgegebenen führenden Allgemeinen musikalischen Zeitung zu Leipzig. Doch Aufrufe solcher Art verloren sich hierorts, obschon Ansätze zu einem brauchbaren Musikschulgebilde in Köln bereits bestanden hatten: einmal in Gestalt eines Konservatorienplanes, wie ihn der neue Maire der vormaligen Reichstadt, Herr von VVittgenstein, aus eingezogenen kirchlichen Stiftungen in Vorschlag gebracht hatte, vorwiegend aus Restklassen von Sing- und Kapellschulen an St. Gereon, an St. Aposteln, bei den Ursulinen und anderswo mehr, zum anderen in Gestalt von Heimkursen und Familienkonzerten, wie sie der seit dem Einzug der Franzosen, 1794, stellenlos gewordene Salzmüdder und Domkapellmeister Dr. jur. Bernhard Joseph Mäurer führte. Unklar blieb indessen, ob sich der Zusammenschluss zu einem Gesamtprojekt nach den Vorstellungen Dr. Mäurers oder des Herrn von Wittgenstein oder auch jenes Anonymus deshalb zerschlug, weil die Durchführung von Domkonzerten an Sonn- und Feiertagen kirchenfremden und besatzungsfreundlichen Lehrkräften hätte zufallen sollen, oder mehr noch deshalb, weil es nach wie vor ein nicht überschaubares Hindernisrennen rivalisierender Musikparteien gab, deren manche nach Privatabsichten berechnet werden müssten, wie es die Leipziger Allgemeine musikalische Zeitung von 1815 lakonisch zu kommentieren wusste.

The violinist Joseph Joachim came to visit him in Düsseldorf in October 1853, and Schumann rallied two of his young students, Brahms and Albert Dietrich, to compose a violin sonata with him. Brahms had only met Schumann the previous month, arriving with an introduction from Joachim, but Schumann was Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center immediately taken with Brahms and the two had become fast friends.

  • Unknown Brahms.’ We Hear None of His Celebrated Overtures, Concertos Or Symphonies
    PROGRAM NOTES November 19 and 20, 2016 This weekend’s program might well be called ‘Unknown Brahms.’ We hear none of his celebrated overtures, concertos or symphonies. With the exception of the opening work, all the pieces are rarities on concert programs. Spanning Brahms’s youth through his early maturity, the music the Wichita Symphony performs this weekend broadens our knowledge and appreciation of this German Romantic genius. Hungarian Dance No. 6 Johannes Brahms Born in Hamburg, Germany May 7, 1833 in Hamburg, Germany Died April 3, 1897 in Vienna, Austria Last performed March 28/29, 1992 We don’t think of Brahms as a composer of pure entertainment music. He had as much gravitas as any 19th-century master and is widely regarded as a great champion of absolute music, music in its purest, most abstract form. Yet Brahms loved to quaff a stein or two of beer with friends and, within his circle, was treasured for his droll sense of humor. His Hungarian Dances are perhaps the finest examples of this side of his character: music for relaxation and diversion, intended to give pleasure to both performer and listener. Their music is familiar and beloved - better known to the general public than many of Brahms’s concert works. Thus it comes as a surprise to many listeners to learn that Brahms specifically denied authorship of their melodies. He looked upon these dances as arrangements, yet his own personality is so evident in them that they beg for consideration as original compositions. But if we deem them to be authentic Brahms, do we categorize them as music for one-piano four-hands, solo piano, or orchestra? Versions for all three exist in Brahms's hand.

  • The Hyechra Club
    THE HYECHRA CLUB The narrator has had a lively interest in The Hyechka Club since its beginning and believes that its history merits recording and dmu- menting in The Chronicles of OkZuhoma, Members of the Club in the past have been interested and its members today are interested in building and supporting a city and a state as cultural centers in which to rear patriotic and Clod-fearing children worthy of the loftiest ideals. Instead of a brief history, this band of music lovers is entitled to a fdsized, two volume publication to report ad* quately all that they have given to the education of young people along cdtural lines and to the wealth of Tulsa and the State of Oklahoma as expressed in the leadership and influence of the known and unknown contributors. Looking over the names of world famous artists that have appeared on its early programs and in its annual Spring Festivals, the words of Warner Van Valkenburg are a fitting tribute and introduction even to this brief history of Tulsa's pioneer organization of music lovers :l "I AM MUSIC. "I am the hymns of the Christian Martyrs in the catacombs; I am the songs of thanksgiving of the kneeling Pilgrime; I am the fugues of Bach, and the oratorios of Handel and Haydn; I am the magic flute of Momrt; I am the immortal symphonies of Beethoven; I am the throbbing mee- sages of Schubert and Schumann; I am the nocturnes of Chopin and the folk melodies of Dvorak; I am the rhapsodies of Linzt and the music- dramas of Wagner; I am the voice of Peter Tchaikowski, crying in the wilderness; I am Brahms and Richard Straues, and Verdi, fulfilling the command of destiny; yea I have breathed upon the harps of MacDowell and Cadman, and have sung of a new world in the west.
