This, like others of Liszt's larger works, was composed first for pianoforte, and was afterward rewritten for orchestra. In its first shape it dates back to the early forties, the plan having been conceived by Liszt in Venice in 1840. The work played to-day is, in turn, a revision of the first orchestral version, which was played for the first time at Weimar, on Aug. 28, 1849. The score of this work contains a preface from the composer's pen : — " In 1849 all Germany celebrated brilliantly the hundredth anniversary of Goethe's birth. At Weimar, where we then resided, the programme of the ftte included a performance of his drama ' Tasso,' fixed for the evening of August 28. The unhappy fate of the most unfortunate of poets had excited the imagination of the most powerful poetic writers of our time, — Goethe and Byron: Goethe, whose career was one of brilliant prosperity; Byron, whose keen sufferings counterbalanced the advantages of his birth and fortune. We shall not conceal the fact that when, in 1849, we were com- missioned to write an overture for Goethe's drama, we were more directly inspired by the respectful compassion of Byron for the manes of the great man whom he invoked than by the work of the German poet.

(326) time, in giving us, in some sort, the groans of Tasso in his prison, Byron did not join to recollection of the keen sorrows so nobly and eloquently ' expressed in his Lamentation ' that of the triumph which awaited, by an act of tardy yet striking justice, the chivalric author of ' Jerusalem Deliv- ered.' We have wished to indicate this contrast even in the title of our work, and to succeed in formulating the grand antithesis of genius ill-treated during life, and shining after death with a light humiliating for its prose- cutors. Tasso, after loving and suffering at Ferrara, was avenged at Rome ; his glory still lives in the popular songs of Venice. These three points are inseparable from his immortal memory. To express them in music, we have called up the great shade of the hero as he appears to-day haunting the lagoons of Venice ; we have next caught a glimpse of his figure, haughty and sad, gliding among the fetes of Ferrara, where he produced his master- pieces ; lastly, we have followed him to Rome, the Eternal City, which crowned him, glorifying in him the martyr and the poet. " Lamento e Trionfo : these are the two great opposites in the destiny of poets, about whom it has been justly said that maledictions weigh heavily on their life, benediction descends upon their tomb. In order to invest this idea not only with the authority, but the glory of fact, we resolved to Old violins, VIOLAS and 'CELLOS, Artist Italian Strings, Imported Silver G's.

(327) — borrow from fact even its form, and to that end have taken as the theme of our musical poem the motive to which we have heard the Venetian gondoliers sing, upon the lagoons, the strophes of Tasso, still repeated three centuries after him, 'Canto 1' armi pietose e '1 Capitano, ' Che '1 gran Sepulchro libero di Cristo The motive is, in itself, plaintive, of a melancholy slowness, a monotonous grief ; but the gondoliers gave it a particular inflection in dragging certain notes by holding back the voice, which, at a distance, soars and shines like rays of glory and of light. This song had already profoundly impressed us ; and, when we had to speak of Tasso, it was impossible to our active senti- ment not to take as the text of our thoughts the persistent homage rendered by his nation to the man of genius, neither whose attachment nor fidelity did the court of Ferrara merit." . The present work is second of the twelve * " symphonic poems " written by Liszt ; and the instruments employed in it are, besides strings, piccolo, flutes, oboes, clarinets, bass clarinet, bassoons, four horns, four trumpets, * Liszt's symphonic poems are: "What is heard on the Mountains" (after Victor Hugo), "Tasso, Lantento e Trionfo," "The Preludes" (after Lamartine), "Orpheus," "Prometheus," " Mazeppa," <l " Festklange," " Heroide Funebre," Hungaria," " Hamlet," " The Battle of the Huns " (after Kaulbach), " The Ideals " (after Schiller).

This brief opening section is founded upon two short and highly contrasted themes, one strong and energetic, derived from the gondoliers' melody, the other of a plaintive, not to say wailing, charac- ter, enhanced in treatment by constant use ofJdissonant and syncopated chords, having the distressful effect proper to the composer's intention.

That said, I wish to thank many people for their assistance and support during the four years it took to complete this dissertation. First, I thank the members of my committee—Dr. Larry Crook, Dr. Paul Richards, Dr. Joyce Davis, and Dr. Jessica Harland-Jacobs—for their comments and pointers on the written draft of this work. I especially thank my committee chair, Dr. David Z. Kushner, for his guidance and friendship during my graduate studies at the University of Florida the past decade. I have learned much from the fine example he embodies as a scholar and teacher for his students in the musicology program. I also thank the University of Florida Center for European Studies and Office of Research, both of which provided funding for my travel to London to conduct research at the British Library. I owe gratitude to the staff at the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C. for their assistance in locating some of the materials in the Victor Herbert Collection.

In order to make a thorough and clear analysis of this relationship a structural/semiotic analysis has been developed as the analysis of best fit. Historically it has been fashionable to see Liszt's symphonic poems in terms of sonata form or a form only making sense in terms of the attached programme. Both of these ideas are critically examined in this analysis.

Doctoral Dissertations. 603. https://opencommons.uconn.edu/dissertations/603 i Nonatonic Harmonic Structures in Symphonies by Ralph Vaughan Williams and Arnold Bax Cameron Logan, Ph.D. University of Connecticut, 2014 This study explores the pitch structures of passages within certain works by Ralph Vaughan Williams and Arnold Bax. A methodology that employs the nonatonic collection (set class 9-12) facilitates new insights into the harmonic language of symphonies by these two composers. The nonatonic collection has received only limited attention in studies of neo-Riemannian operations and transformational theory. This study seeks to go further in exploring the nonatonic‟s potential in forming transformational networks, especially those involving familiar types of seventh chords. An analysis of the entirety of Vaughan Williams‟s Fourth Symphony serves as the exemplar for these theories, and reveals that the nonatonic collection acts as a connecting thread between seemingly disparate pitch elements throughout the work. Nonatonicism is also revealed to be a significant structuring element in passages from Vaughan Williams‟s Sixth Symphony and his Sinfonia Antartica. A review of the historical context of the symphony in Great Britain shows that the need to craft a work of intellectual depth, simultaneously original and traditional, weighed heavily on the minds of British symphonists in the early twentieth century.
