Maazel began his tenure as the Philharmonic’s new Music Director in September, and already has put his stamp of authority on the playing of the orchestra. Indeed he and the Philharmonic were rapturously received wherever they performed on a recent tour of the Far East. Celebrating the New Year with music is nothing new for Maazel: he holds the modern record for most appearances as conductor of the celebrated New Year’s Day concerts in Vienna by the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra. There, of course, the fare is made up mostly of music by the waltzing Johann Strauss family, father and sons. For his New Year’s Eve concert with the New York Philharmonic Maazel has chosen quintessentially American music by the composer considered by many to be America’s closest equivalent to the Strausses, George Gershwin.

  • The Trumpet As a Voice of Americana in the Americanist Music of Gershwin, Copland, and Bernstein
    THE TRUMPET AS A VOICE OF AMERICANA IN THE AMERICANIST MUSIC OF GERSHWIN, COPLAND, AND BERNSTEIN DOCUMENT Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Amanda Kriska Bekeny, M.M. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Timothy Leasure, Adviser Professor Charles Waddell _________________________ Dr. Margarita Ophee-Mazo Adviser School of Music ABSTRACT The turn of the century in American music was marked by a surge of composers writing music depicting an “American” character, via illustration of American scenes and reflections on Americans’ activities. In an effort to set American music apart from the mature and established European styles, American composers of the twentieth century wrote distinctive music reflecting the unique culture of their country. In particular, the trumpet is a prominent voice in this music. The purpose of this study is to identify the significance of the trumpet in the music of three renowned twentieth-century American composers. This document examines the “compositional” and “conceptual” Americanisms present in the music of George Gershwin, Aaron Copland, and Leonard Bernstein, focusing on the use of the trumpet as a voice depicting the compositional Americanisms of each composer. The versatility of its timbre allows the trumpet to stand out in a variety of contexts: it is heroic during lyrical, expressive passages; brilliant during festive, celebratory sections; and rhythmic during percussive statements. In addition, it is a lead jazz voice in much of this music. As a dominant voice in a variety of instances, the trumpet expresses the American character of each composer’s music.

  • Gershwin, Copland, Lecuoña, Chávez, and Revueltas
    Latin Dance-Rhythm Influences in Early Twentieth Century American Music: Gershwin, Copland, Lecuoña, Chávez, and Revueltas Mariesse Oualline Samuels Herrera Elementary School INTRODUCTION In June 2003, the U. S. Census Bureau released new statistics. The Latino group in the United States had grown officially to be the country’s largest minority at 38.8 million, exceeding African Americans by approximately 2.2 million. The student profile of the school where I teach (Herrera Elementary, Houston Independent School District) is 96% Hispanic, 3% Anglo, and 1% African-American. Since many of the Hispanic students are often immigrants from Mexico or Central America, or children of immigrants, finding the common ground between American music and the music of their indigenous countries is often a first step towards establishing a positive learning relationship. With this unit, I aim to introduce students to a few works by Gershwin and Copland that establish connections with Latin American music and to compare these to the works of Latin American composers. All of them have blended the European symphonic styles with indigenous folk music, creating a new strand of world music. The topic of Latin dance influences at first brought to mind Mexico and mariachi ensembles, probably because in South Texas, we hear Mexican folk music in neighborhood restaurants, at weddings and birthday parties, at political events, and even at the airports. Whether it is a trio of guitars, a group of folkloric dancers, or a full mariachi band, the Mexican folk music tradition is part of the Tex-Mex cultural blend. The same holds true in New Mexico, Arizona, and California.

Seemingly never having heard cymbals, bass drum, bells, cannon, SATB chorus, the work, Tchaikovsky wrote to the conductor and strings: violin I, violin I, viola, violoncello, Eduard Nápravník in 1881, “Last winter, at double bass Nikolai Rubinstein’s request, I composed a Festival Duration: 16’ Overture for the concerts of the exhibition, entitled 1812.

It is not of great value, and I (Born May 7, 1840 in Votkinsk, Russia; shall not be at all surprised or hurt if you consider died November 6, 1893 in St. Petersburg) the style of the music unsuitable to a symphony concert.” Nápravník gave the apparent premiere 1812, Overture Solennelle, on August 20, 1882 in Moscow. The Overture represents the conflict — Op. 49 (1880) militarily and musically — of Russia and France, and the eventual Russian “victory” over The Russian penchant for myth-making the invaders. It opens with a dark, brooding extends, of course, to her warfare. It is therefore setting of the Russian hymn God, Preserve Thy not surprising that Napoleon’s strategic People for violas and cellos.

The orchestra promptly appointed him regular guest conductor for the coming seasons. Maestro Proost meanwhile led a series of concerts in the U.K., e.g. at Royal Albert Hall in London, and he annually took the orchestra on tour to Belgium and The Netherlands. The collaboration with this renowned orchestra also includes various CD-recordings. At his debut at the “Großer Musikvereinssaal” - the Golden Hall - in Vienna in March 1998, Maestro Proost experienced an overwhelming success conducting the “Niederösterreichisches Tonkünstler-Orchester ". This orchestra since then has invited him back to Vienna for a yearly guest appearance, e.g. for the opening concert of the 2000-2001 season, for the Valentine concerts in February 2002, twice for a concert in the cycle "Musik der Meister" which took place on December 7, 2002 and April 19, 2004. The last invitation implied a series of 7 concerts which he conducted in April 2005. Since October 2013 he is artistic director and chief conductor of the new orchestra "European Philharmonia", with which he wants to bring classical music closer to the people again.
