The following sketch of this symphony is based on information furnished by the composer. The symphony Op. 24 is in three movements: I. Adagio maestoso; Allegro fuoco; II. Andante con moto; III. Allegro vivace. The themes of the first movement were sketched in the summer of 1904. The three movements which now compose the work were com- pleted, and the parts were copied in December, 1908. "The symphony is written as a patriotic tribute of the composer to his native country, and it was directly inspired by the fortieth anniversary of the revolution of 1863-64. There is no absolute programme for either the first or second movement. The first movement is free, but classical in form. It seeks to celebrate Poland's great heroic past. The themes, although racial in character, are not based on popular melo- dies. The same is true of the second (slow) movement in which the composer endeavors to express the lyric nature of his race. "In the third movement Mr. Paderewski has followed a sharply defined programme. It is in effect a symphonic poem, and is peculiarly in memory of the revolution of 1863-64. "In the opening of the movement is felt the spirit of social and po- litical unrest which filled the country prior to the outbreak of the war, the unrest of the young hot-heads, the youth of the nation, who longed for independence. Older heads, conservative age, counselled patience and caution, urged the impossibility of a successful issue. This despond- ent feeling is expressed in a treatment of the national anthem, from which all buoyancy and joyousness have been taken. The anthem is treated not unlike a dirge; it appears in a subdued, sad mood. GRAND OPERAS In this Season's Repertory TIEFLAND, by E.

HARDMAN, PECK & COMPANY Established 1842 FIFTH AVENUE, NEW YORK Represented in Philadelphia by JAflES BELLAK'S SONS, 1129 CHESTNUT STREET 8 ' "The youth refuse to listen. The atmosphere of restlessness subdues the remonstrances of the elders, and the spark of revolution ignites with the appearance of the second theme, a theme of brilliant chivalric char- acter, which has been heralded by faint distant trumpet-calls,—the sum- mons to war. "Light-hearted, gay, and confident, the youth of Poland depart for battle. The first conflict is characterized by the use of sarrusophones, which, with their dark, heavy coloring, express the weight and over- whelming strength of the oppressing force. Again is heard the Polish anthem, this time strong, vigorous, and battling; yet, as the conflict pro- gresses, it is gradually lost in the gloom of defeat, finally disappearing in an atmosphere of utter despair. "Then a funeral dirge celebrates the heroes that are gone. The themes of unrest heard in the first movement reappear, but are divested of their substance. They are as shadowy and as unsubstantial as the heroes that have passed away. They are bitter memories of defeat. Upward they soar, higher and higher, —lamentations for the fatherland ascending to heaven. "A quick transition of mood follows, from gloom to brightness. Hope returns, and in the recapitulation and climax one hears again the splen- did buoyancy of the theme of chivalry from this third movement, the theme of the heroic past from the first movement, and a third theme on which will be built the fourth movement yet to be written.' The symphony is complete as a work in its present shape, but Mr. Paderewski contemplates a fourth movement. It will be a scherzo. The work is scored for three flutes, three oboes (one interchangeable with English horn) , three clarinets (one interchangeable with bass clari- net), two bassoons, contrabassoon, three sarrusophones, four trumpets, four horns, three trombones, one bass tuba, harp, organ, a set of three Dry cleaning women's gowns By the improved French process in- sures thoroughness in freshening up the colors without shrinking or fading the fabric.

    Synopsis Prologue Mythical times. At night in the mountains, the three Norns, daughters of Erda, weave the rope of destiny. They tell how Wotan ordered the World Ash Tree, from which his spear was once cut, to be felled and its wood piled around Valhalla. The burning of the pyre will mark the end of the old order. Suddenly, the rope breaks. Their wisdom ended, the Norns descend into the earth. Dawn breaks on the Valkyries’ rock, and Siegfried and Brünnhilde emerge. Having cast protective spells on Siegfried, Brünnhilde sends him into the world to do heroic deeds. As a pledge of his love, Siegfried gives her the ring that he took from the dragon Fafner, and she offers her horse, Grane, in return. Siegfried sets off on his travels. Act I In the hall of the Gibichungs on the banks of the Rhine, Hagen advises his half- siblings, Gunther and Gutrune, to strengthen their rule through marriage. He suggests Brünnhilde as Gunther’s bride and Siegfried as Gutrune’s husband. Since only the strongest hero can pass through the fire on Brünnhilde’s rock, Hagen proposes a plan: A potion will make Siegfried forget Brünnhilde and fall in love with Gutrune. To win her, he will claim Brünnhilde for Gunther. When Siegfried’s horn is heard from the river, Hagen calls him ashore. Gutrune offers him the potion. Siegfried drinks and immediately confesses his love for her.Ð When Gunther describes the perils of winning his chosen bride, Siegfried offers to use the Tarnhelm to transform himself into Gunther.

  • Musical Landmarks in New York
    MUSICAL LANDMARKS IN NEW YORK By CESAR SAERCHINGER HE great war has stopped, or at least interrupted, the annual exodus of American music students and pilgrims to the shrines T of the muse. What years of agitation on the part of America- first boosters—agitation to keep our students at home and to earn recognition for our great cities as real centers of musical culture—have not succeeded in doing, this world catastrophe has brought about at a stroke, giving an extreme illustration of the proverb concerning the ill wind. Thus New York, for in- stance, has become a great musical center—one might even say the musical center of the world—for a majority of the world's greatest artists and teachers. Even a goodly proportion of its most eminent composers are gathered within its confines. Amer- ica as a whole has correspondingly advanced in rank among musical nations. Never before has native art received such serious attention. Our opera houses produce works by Americans as a matter of course; our concert artists find it popular to in- clude American compositions on their programs; our publishing houses publish new works by Americans as well as by foreigners who before the war would not have thought of choosing an Amer- ican publisher. In a word, America has taken the lead in mu- sical activity. What, then, is lacking? That we are going to retain this supremacy now that peace has come is not likely. But may we not look forward at least to taking our place beside the other great nations of the world, instead of relapsing into the status of a colony paying tribute to the mother country? Can not New York and Boston and Chicago become capitals in the empire of art instead of mere outposts? I am afraid that many of our students and musicians, for four years compelled to "make the best of it" in New York, are already looking eastward, preparing to set sail for Europe, in search of knowledge, inspiration and— atmosphere.

  • The Interest of These Performances Lies First and Foremost
    The interest of these performances lies first and foremost - not to mention finally and most importantly- in the tempos: in the way they are chosen, establi shed, and shrewdly modified by Fiedler in the course of performances which so interestingly live, move and have their being. There are other points of interest. The nature of the use of string portamentos: in the case of Fiedler and the Berlin Philharmonic, the selective and highly discriminating use of it. But it is tempo which is of paramount interest ... Richard Osborne, Gramophone, November 2000 (excetpt) Producer's Note Max Fiedler (1859 - 1939) is one of only two conductors with a direct link to Brahms to have recorded hi s works; the other is Felix Weingartner. Yet, as Christopher D yment pointed out in a pair of articl es published in Classical Record Collector a decade ago (Summer and Autumn, 2002), it would be an overstatement to call him a protCgC of the composer. Fiedler knew Brahms personally, and likely heard him conduct on a few occasions; however, it was as a follower of Hans von Bulow that Fiedler learned what he believed to be the authentic Brahms style, a highly subjective, rhythmically free approach that was at odds with the more restrained Classicism of Fritz Steinbach, who provided a model for the young Weingartner. Nevertheless, by early in the last century, Fiedler had earned the reputation in Germany as a Brahms specialist, and it was in that capacity that he made his only commercial records for Grammophon/ Polydor, all of which are presented here.
