Aladdin Hornemann ¬ 1850 København 1926 København Christian Frederik Emil Hornemann had music in his blood; his father was Emil Hornemann – the composer of Dengang jeg drog afsted and Højt fra træets grønne top. As a child, Christian Frederik Emil had a very special way of celebrating birthdays in the family; he wrote and performed little operas for the guests, and he had an obvious talent. He received a solid music education, including at the Conservatory of Leipzig and later worked as a conductor, music publisher, concert organiser, and music educator in Copenhagen. Hornemann wrote songs, piano pieces, cantatas, and theatre music in his own name – and moreover, published practical music Christian Frederik Emil Hornemann havde det ikke fra fremmede; hans entertainment and opera fantasies under pseudonym. For several far var Emil Hornemann – komponisten til Dengang jeg drog afsted years, Hornemann worked on the opera Aladdin that finally had its og Højt fra træets grønne top. Som dreng havde Christian Frederik first performance at the Royal Danish Theatre in 1888. It was not a Emil en helt særlig måde at fejre fødselsdage i familien på; han skrev success, according to Hornemann, because “the pale and flabby og opførte små operaer for gæsterne, og talentet var tydeligt. Han ladies and overeating gentlemen” who came to the gala premiere fik en solid musikeruddannelse, bl.a. på konservatoriet i Leipzig, og were not in the mood for a new Danish opera. arbejdede senere både som dirigent, musikforlægger, koncertarrangør og musikpædagog i København. Hornemann skrev både sange, klaverstykker, kantater og skuespilmusik i eget navn – og udgav desuden praktisk underholdningsmusik og operafantasier under pseudonym. Hornemann arbejdede i mange år på operaen Aladdin, som endelig fik sin uropførelse på Det Kongelige Teater i 1888. Det blev ingen succes, ifølge Hornemann fordi ”de blegfede komtesser og forspiste festherrer”, der kom til gallapremieren, aldeles ikke var i humør til ny, dansk opera. C. F. E.

Gade. In 1891, Helsted was the first organist at the Jesus Church in Valby where the famous Danish brewer J.C. Jacobsen had installed a big, romantic, French organ. He was inspired by the new organ music of the time by César Franck and Charles-Marie Widor, and in 1915 he became the leading organist at Vor Frue Kirke in Copenhagen. Helsted was not only an accomplished musician and composer, but also an administrative talent in the organisation of the Danish music scene in the early twentieth century.

  • Marco Polo – the Label of Discovery
    Marco Polo – The Label of Discovery Doubt was expressed by his contemporaries as to the truth of Marco Polo’s account of his years at the court of the Mongol Emperor of China. For some he was known as a man of a million lies, and one recent scholar has plausibly suggested that the account of his travels was a fiction inspired by a family dispute. There is, though, no doubt about the musical treasures daily uncovered by the Marco Polo record label. To paraphrase Marco Polo himself: All people who wish to know the varied music of men and the peculiarities of the various regions of the world, buy these recordings and listen with open ears. The original concept of the Marco Polo label was to bring to listeners unknown compositions by well-known composers. There was, at the same time, an ambition to bring the East to the West. Since then there have been many changes in public taste and in the availability of recorded music. Composers once little known are now easily available in recordings. Marco Polo, in consequence, has set out on further adventures of discovery and exploration. One early field of exploration lay in the work of later Romantic composers, whose turn has now come again. In addition to pioneering recordings of the operas of Franz Schreker, Der ferne Klang (The Distant Sound), Die Gezeichneten (The Marked Ones) and Die Flammen (The Flames), were three operas by Wagner’s son, Siegfried. Der Bärenhäuter (The Man in the Bear’s Skin), Banadietrich and Schwarzschwanenreich (The Kingdom of the Black Swan) explore a mysterious medieval world of German legend in a musical language more akin to that of his teacher Humperdinck than to that of his father.

  • Paper Jurjen Vis 2011
    1 Fuglsang as a musical crossroads: paradise and paradise lost. Röntgen, De Neergaard, Grieg and Fuglsang Jurjen Vis (Amsterdam) Edvard Grieg and Julius Röntgen met for the first time at a party of the Skandinaviske Selskap in Leipzig, Saturday February 27th 1875. Grieg was 31 years old, Röntgen a young man of only 19. Their friendship became really close only nine years later, in December 1883, when Grieg - suffering a midlife crisis and bored with his marriage - planned to stay one night with the Röntgens in Amsterdam. In advance Grieg had written to Röntgen that he hoped this one day in Amsterdam would last 48 hours. In the end it lasted nearly four weeks, since Grieg was exhausted and really not willing to go back to his wife! After the long sleepover, an intense correspondence between the two men flourished until 1907, the year of Grieg’s death. In his many letters Grieg often stimulated his friend: ‘Do come to Norway!’ Already in July 1884, Röntgen went there with his friend the singer Johannes Messchaert, they visited the Hardanger and indeed met Grieg. Seven years later Grieg and Röntgen solemnly celebrated their brotherhood - the ritual of ‘Brüderschaft trinken’ - in the summer of 1891, and it was Grieg as senior who had taken the initiative. Only since then did they no longer address each other with Sie and Herr, but with Du and lieber Freund. An unforeseen encounter In July 1891 Röntgen had gone to Norway together with his wife Amanda Mayer and their sons Julius junior and Engelbert. Röntgen was bound to make the already mentioned trip through Jotunheim, with Grieg and Grieg’s best friend Frants Beyer; just the three of them.

  • 'Niels W. Gade Und Der "Nordische Ton" : Ein Musikgeschichtlicher
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2012 Niels W. Gade und der ”nordische Ton” : ein musikgeschichtlicher Präzedenzfall Matter, Michael Abstract: Anfang der 1840er Jahre feierte der dänische Komponist Niels W. Gade einen sensationellen Er- folg in Leipzig. Robert Schumann attestierte vor allem seiner Ouvertüre Efterklange af Ossian op. 1 und seiner Ersten Sinfonie op. 5 einen entschieden nordischen Charakter. Damit war ein musikgeschichtlicher Präzedenzfall geschaffen: Erstmals in der Geschichte der Sinfonik hatte ein volkstümliches Idiomaus der europäischen Peripherie Eingang in die Kunstmusik gefunden und damit die Geschichte der na- tionalen Sinfonik begründet. Es stellt sich demzufolge die dringliche Frage, welche kompositorischen Konstituenten den frühen Werken Gades allenfalls ein nordisches Gepräge verleihen und inwieweit es sich dabei um ein Rezeptionsprodukt einer von bestimmten Sehnsüchten und Vorstellungen geprägten deutschen Romantik handelt. Denn in Kopenhagen selbst war Gade anfänglich nicht ganz so erfolgreich und musste sich gar Vorwürfe gefallen lassen, zu deutsch zu komponieren. Aufschluss über das Phänomen des sogenannten nordischen Tons geben daher nicht nur die Analyse der Notentexte, sondern auch die zahlreichen Rezeptionsdokumente sowie der sozialpolitische und gattungsgeschichtliche Kontext. In einer diskursiven Untersuchung sollen die damaligen Nördlichkeitsvorstellungen rekonstruiert werden, um die gängigen Denkmechanismen und Topoi aufzudecken. Abschliessend gilt es, die Rezeption der späteren Werke Gades zu beleuchten und nach Gründen zu suchen, warum der dänische Komponist nach 1900 der Vergessenheit anheimfiel. At the beginning of the 1840s the Danish composer Niels W. Gade achieved sensational success in Leipzig where Robert Schumann notably attributed a decidedly Nordic character to his works, in particular his Overture Efterklange af Ossian op.

With Historical and Descriptive Notes by William F. Apthorp. PUBLISHED BY C. A. ELLIS, MANAGER. A Remarkable Piano. The Mason & Hamlin Piano is constructed in one particular differently from any other : the strings are held by screws, not by pins. As a result, the Mason & Hamlin Piano does not require one-quarter as much tuning as any other piano made. This fact has been demonstrated by actual test, and verified by mechanics, tuners, and private individuals. Piano tuning costs money. It costs only one-fourth as much to keep a Mason & Hamlin Piano in tune as it does to keep any other in tune. Consequently the expense of keeping a Mason & Hamlin Piano is reduced to one-fourth that of any other. Catalogue and full particulars mailed on application. dte0ttll?HmIm BOSTON. NEW YORK. CHICAGO.
