For example, your life insurance can very easily be arranged to provide life-long support for your widow plus a substantial inheritance for your children. In Shawmut's Personal Trust Department we would be glad to discuss your complete insurance program . with you, your life insurance counsellor and your attorney, or simply write for a copy of our brochure "A Modern Life Insurance Program."

SYMPHONY IN D MAJOR ("Haffner"), K. No. 385 By Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Born at Salzburg, January 27, 1756; died at Vienna, December 5, 1791 This symphony was composed in July, 1782, as a serenade, and shortly performed as such in Salzburg. The music revised as a symphony in four movements was played at a concert given by Mozart in Vienna, March 22, 1783. It is scored for 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 bassoons, 2 horns, 2 trumpets, timpani, and strings. "This symphony," wrote Philip Hale, "was played in Boston at concerts of the Orchestral Union, December 21, 1859, ano^ May J > 1861. No doubt there were earlier performances." The first performance at the concerts of the Boston Symphony Orchestra was on January 10, 1885. The most recent performances were on December 22-23, 1 955* Qometimes composers have by chance left a written record of their ^ progress in the composing of a particular work, and the attendant circumstances. The information can be illuminating; in the case of the "Haffner" Symphony, as referred to in Mozart's letters to his father, it is astonishing. This important score, which succeeding generations have cherished as a little masterpiece in its kind, would appear to have been the merest routine "job," undertaken grudgingly in a few hasty hours between more important matters. ESTABLISHED 1833 Peace of mind. ...is close to every woman's heart. And entrusting the management of your invest- ments to our Trust Department can bring peace of mind— the kind that comes from knowing that your financial affairs are in good hands. ROCK LAND -ATLAS NATIONAL BANK of BOSTON Trust Department : 199 Washington Street Telephone: Richmond 2-2100 MEMBER FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION [73] ^^ In addition to this, an observation in a letter from Mozart to his father about this Symphony throws a remarkable light on the unreten- tiveness of his memory about his own music. We have constant evidence that he composed easily, rapidly, and altered little. The "Haffner" Sym- phony, in its original form as a serenade in six movements, he com- posed under pressure in the space of two weeks, a time crowded with obligations, including other music and his own wedding! Six months later, when he had decided to turn the score into a symphony for a sudden need, he opened the package sent by his father, and found that he had quite forgotten what he had composed. "The new Haffner Symphony has astonished me," he wrote his father, "for I no longer remembered a word of it ['ich wusste kein Wort mehr davon']; it must be very effective." When Sigmund Haffner, Mozart's fellow townsman in Salzburg, needed a serenade for a special festivity, probably the occasion of his ennoblement, he applied to Leopold who promptly wrote to his son in Vienna urging him to supply one.

WILEY HITCHCOCK Quartet in B-flat major, Op. 64, No. 3 JOSEPH HAYDN Chamber music owes much to Joseph Haydn. Almost all of the chamber works before his contributions were based on the continuo principle: the chamber group was supported by a keyboard instrument which filled in the harmonies between a bass part and the florid upper parts. Now, since the continuo player extemporized, there was much indiscriminate doubling of notes, and the written-down parts of the chamber instruments had no absolute tonal meaning; the composer could never be sure how his music would sound. In nearly eighty string quartets, and many other chamber works, Haydn attempted to solve the problem of creating chamber music intended as independent of the "help­ ing hand" of a continuo.

I am also pleased to tell you that we were fortunate in securing for our musical program one of your protegees, Janina Fialkowska, whom we were fortunate to hear during our recent visit to Jerusalem this past summer.

JOSEPH HAYDN (1732-1809) More than eighty string quartets and countless other chamber works, over one hundred symphonies, fifty-odd concertos and about the same number of keyboard sonatas—these are only part of Joseph Haydn's tremendous musical output! The list is staggering. And even more to be wondered at is the general excellence of all this music. Working independently at the court of the Esterhazy family, a complete pro­ vincial who never left the immediate vicinity of Vienna save for two visits to London late in life, deprived of that most important stimulus to progress in composition— frequent contact with other music and musicians, Haydn nevertheless sustained a freshness of invention, an originality of expression, through fifty years of composing.

  • The Art of Henri Temianka” VIRTUOSO VIOLINIST, CONDUCTOR, AUTHOR and EDUCATOR
    ARSC New York Chapter December 2019 Meeting 7:00 P. M. Thursday, 12/19/2019 →At the CUNY Sonic Arts Center← West 140th Street & Convent Avenue, New York Or enter at 138th Street off Convent Avenue (N.B. not always open) Shepard Hall (the Gothic building) – Recital Hall (Room 95, ground floor) An elevator is located in the center of the building. “The Art of Henri Temianka” VIRTUOSO VIOLINIST, CONDUCTOR, AUTHOR AND EDUCATOR Presented by John Haley As demonstrated by his recordings, Henri (pronounced “Henry”) Temianka (1906-1992) was one of the finest violinists of the 20th Century. Born in Greenock, Scotland of immigrant Polish Jewish parents, he studied violin with Carol Blitz in Rotterdam, Willy Hess in Berlin, Jules Boucherit in Paris, and finally Carl Flesch at the Curtis Institute in Philadelphia. In 1930, Temianka was in the first Curtis graduating class, earning a double degree in violin and conducting, having studied the latter with Artur Rodzinski. As a violinist he was further influenced by Eugène Ysaӱe, Jacques Thibaud and Bronisław Huberman. Flesch referred to him as possessing “both musically and technically, … a model collection of talents.” After a brilliant debut in New York in 1928 (which Olin Downes described as “one of the finest accomplishments in years”), Temianka returned to Europe and rapidly established himself as one of that era’s foremost concert violinists, appearing with major orchestras in Europe and the U.S. under such conductors as Pierre Monteux, Sir John Barbirolli, Sir Adrian Boult, Fritz Reiner, Sir Henry Wood, George Szell, Otto Klemperer, Dimitri Mitropoulos and William Steinberg.

When that first incarnation of the quartet was performed the following month, I was dissatisfied with the overall result. I stowed the composition away and did not return to it until a number of years had passed; in 1987, I substantially revised this piece. I threw out the first movement (now destroyed). I then took the original third NANCY ADLER movement, recomposed certain passages, and determined it should now stand as the new first String Quartet No.

WILEY HITCHCOCK L'Estro Armonico, Op. 3 ANTONIO VIVALDI Antonio Vivaldi, possibly the greatest Italian master of the late Baroque period, lived from 1680 to 1741. A renowned virtuoso on the violin, he is remembered today primarily for his many works for that instrument, and other string combinations, although he was a prolific composer of operas, cantatas, motets, and works in other forms. "L'Estro Armonico" is the title given to a group of conccrti grossi for various combinations of instruments published by Vivaldi as Opus 3. Their pre-eminence in the popular concerto grosso field of the early classical era is indicated by the fact that Johann Sebastian Bach arranged several of them for his own use.
