Like so much of the chamber music of his last years, this quartet is imbued with an inwardness, a sense of personal expression that is not always present in the sometimes bombastic public statements that were his symphonies. The second movement in particular forecasts in many ways the subjectivity and the spare, almost austere style of his later quartets. The first movement, highly rhythmic in character, is a compressed sonata form with little or no development of the two main themes, which take on a different metrical guise in the recapitulation. Throughout the second movement there is scarcely a moment when all four instruments are playing simultaneously (it happens just once, for six measures, when viola and cello are doubled in octaves under the two violin parts). For the rest, the texture is limited to two or three parts only, a simplicity that Shostakovich much relished in this repertoire. The final Allegro begins with a wild fugue that is eventually transformed into an odd waltz-like movement suggesting gentle grotesqueries before fading away. Dmitri Shostakovich Viola Sonata, Opus 147 Shostakovich was putting the finishing touches on this, his final work, when he died on 9 August 1975 (the first announcement in the United States of his death came at Tanglewood, where Mstislav Rostropovich was just about to begin conducting a performance of Shostakovich's Fifth Symphony; no one who was in the audience that day will forget the shock of the news or the conductor's innately Russian gesture of homage in kissing the score as he closed it after the performance). The sonata was composed for the violist of the Beethoven Quartet, Fedor Druzhinin (a pupil of and replacement for the original violist Vadim Borisovsky). It is a pensive, autumnal work, like so much of the music of the composer's last years. The viola is featured throughout, even to the extent of beginning and ending the entire sonata unaccompanied and having several lengthy and difficult cadenzas. The first movement builds from the pizzicato opening to a powerful climax with both instruments. The Allegretto is overtly folklike and filled with characteristic dance rhythms and melodies of intensely Russian character. In the final Adagio, the longest movement of the sonata, Shostakovich writes deeply introspective music that closes in a long morendo ("dying away"),-the composer's own final farewell. — Steven Ledbetter 37 Iftk Sheila Fiekowsky Sheila Fiekowsky was born in Detroit, Michigan, and has been a violinist with the Boston Symphony Orchestra since 1975.

  • Toccata Classics TOCC 0127 Notes
    SERGEI VASILENKO AND THE VIOLA by Elena Artamonova The viola is occasionally referred to as ‘the Cinderella of instruments’ – and, indeed, it used to take a fairy godmother of a player to allow this particular Cinderella to go to the ball; the example usually cited in the liberation of the viola in a solo role is the British violist Lionel Tertis. Another musician to pay the instrument a similar honour – as a composer rather than a player – was the Russian Sergei Vasilenko (1872–1956), all of whose known compositions for viola, published and unpublished, are to be heard on this CD, the fruit of my investigations in libraries and archives in Moscow and London. None is well known; some are not even included in any of the published catalogues of Vasilenko’s music. Only the Sonata was recorded previously, first in the 1960s by Georgy Bezrukov, viola, and Anatoly Spivak, piano,1 and again in 2007 by Igor Fedotov, viola, and Leonid Vechkhayzer, piano;2 the other compositions receive their first recordings here. Sergei Nikiforovich Vasilenko had a long and distinguished career as composer, conductor and pedagogue in the first half of the twentieth century. He was born in Moscow on 30 March 1872 into an aristocratic family, whose inner circle of friends consisted of the leading writers and artists of the time, but his interest in music was rather capricious in his early childhood: he started to play piano from the age of six only to give it up a year later, although he eventually resumed his lessons. In his mid-teens, after two years of tuition on the clarinet, he likewise gave it up in favour of the oboe.

This repertoire approach to the enhancement and enrichment of the was undoubtedly influential for Borisovsky in his own viola’s instrumental and timbral possibilities in his selection of transcription choices for the viola. performing editions, in which he closely followed the historical and stylistic background of the composers’ Performing Collaborations manuscripts.

  • Vadim Borisovsky and His Viola Arrangements: Recent Discoveries in Russian Archives and Libraries, Part I
    Viola V30 N2_Viola V26 N1 11/7/14 6:25 PM Page 27 VADIM BORISOVSKY AND HIS VIOLA ARRANGEMENTS: RECENT DISCOVERIES IN RUSSIAN ARCHIVES AND LIBRARIES, PART I by Elena Artamonova Vadim Borisovsky (1900–1972) was the leading Russian viola soloist from the 1920s to the 1960s and a dedicatee of a number of viola works written by his contemporaries. Like his colleagues, Borisovsky began his career as a chamber violist but despite all odds moved on to promote the viola as a solo instrument, giving recitals, and researching and arranging works for this instrument. From 1925 until 1972, Borisovsky taught at the Moscow Conservatoire, where he founded the faculty of solo viola performance.1 He was one of the founding members of the Beethoven Quartet in 1922,2 remaining in the group until 1964, when he was replaced by one of his prominent former students, Fedor Druzhinin. The artistic talents of Borisovsky inspired many composers to write for the viola. Vadim Borisovsky was a dedicatee of various works for viola, including sonatas for viola and piano by Vladimir Kriukov (op. 15, 1920–1921), Sergei Vasilenko (op. 46, 1923), Nikolai Roslavets (1926 and the 1930s), Aleksandr Mosolov (op. 21a), and Vasilii Shirinski (1924) and pieces for viola and piano by Vladimir Kriukov (op. 13) and by Aleksandr Krein (op. 2a), among others. Vadim Borisovsky Borisovsky was an author of more than two hundred arrangements and transcriptions for the viola that span repertoire from the Baroque period to the Many interesting and important biographical facts music of his contemporaries. Some of them were influenced Borisovsky’s formation and interests, but published in limited editions in the USSR, and the some of his contributions continue to be unknown— others still remain in manuscript form.
