The strongest impressions of the concert season are linked with Baldwintone, exquisitely exploited by pianists eminent in their art. Schnitzer, Pugno, Scharwenka, Bachaus De Pachmann! More than chance attracts the finely-gifted amateur to this keyboard. Among people who love good music, who have a culti- vated knowledge of it, and who seek the best medium for producing it, the Baldwin is chief. In such an atmosphere it is as happily "at home" as are the Preludes of Chopin, the Liszt Rhapsodies upon a virtuoso's programme. THE BOOK OF THE BALDWIN free upon request.

I/Udwig van Beethoven (Born at Bonn, December 16 (?), 1770; died at Vienna, March 26, 1827.) Anton Schindler wrote in his Life of Beethoven (Minister, 1840): "First in the fall of 1802 was his [Beethoven's] mental condition so much bettered that he could take hold afresh of his long-formulated plan and make some progress : to pay homage with a great instrumental work to the hero of the time, Napoleon. Yet not until 1803 did he set himself seriously to this gigantic work, which we now know under the title of 'Sinphonia Eroica': on account of many interruptions it was not finished until the following year. The first idea of this sym- phony is said to have come from General Bernadotte, who was then French Ambassador at Vienna, and highly treasured Beethoven. I heard this from many friends of Beethoven. Count Moritz Lichnow- sky, who was often with Beethoven in the company of Bernadotte, . told me the same story." Schindler also wrote, with reference to the year 1823 : "The correspondence of the King of Sweden led Beethoven's memory back to the time when the King, then General Bernadotte, Ambassador of the French Republic, was at Vienna, and Beethoven had a lively recollection of the fact that Bernadotte indeed first awak- ened in him the idea of the 'Sinphonia Eroica.'" These statements are direct. Unfortunately, Schindler, in the third edition of his book, mentioned Beethoven as a visitor at the house of Bernadotte in 1798, repeated the statement that Bernadotte inspired the idea of the symphony, and added: "Not long afterward the idea The ORATORIO SOCIETY OF NEW YORK FORTIETH SEASON, 1912-1913 LOUIS KOEMMENICH = = = = = Conductor CONCERTS AT CARNEGIE HALL ELIJAH -------- Mendelssohn Tuesday Evening, December 3, 1912 Miss Florence Hinkle Miss Margaret Keyes Mr. Paul Althouse Mr. Clarence Whitehill rHE MESSIAH -------- Handel Thursday Afternoon, December 26, 1912 Saturday Evening, December 28, 1912 i CHORAL SERVICE (Eine Deutsche Messe) - - - Otto Taubman New — first time in America.

Thayer admits that the thought of Napoleon may have influenced the form and the contents of the symphony; that the composer 1 may have based a system of politics on Plato; "but," he adds, "Ber-| nadotte had been long absent from Vienna before the Consular form of government was adopted at Paris, and before Schleiermacher's Plato was published in Berlin." The symphony was composed in 1803-04. The story is that the title-page of the manuscript bore the word "Buonaparte" and at the bottom of the page "Luigi van Beethoven"; "and not a word more," | said Ries, who saw the manuscript. "I was the first," also said Ries, j "who brought him the news that Bonaparte had had himself declared! Emperor, whereat he broke out angrily: 'Then he's nothing but an! ordinary man ! Now he'll trample on all the rights of men to serve his \ own ambition ; he will put himself higher than all others and turn out a tyrant!'" Furthermore, there is the story that, when the death of Napoleon ' at St. Helena was announced, Beethoven exclaimed, "Did I not foresee the catastrophe when I wrote the funeral march in the 'Eroica'?" M. Vincent d'Indy in his remarkable Life of Beethoven argues Schind- ler's theory that Beethoven wished to celebrate the French Revolution en bloc. "C'itait Vhomme de Brumaire" that Beethoven honored by his dedication (pp. 79-82). The original score of the symphony was bought in 1827 by Joseph Dessauer for three florins, ten kreuzers, at auction in Vienna. On the title-page stands "Sinfonia grande." Two words that should follow immediately were erased. One of these words is plainly "Bona- parte;" and under his own name the composer wrote in large charac- ters with a lead-pencil: "Written on B6naparte." Thus it appears there can be nothing in the statements that have come down from Czerny, Dr. Bartolini, and others: the first allegro describes a sea-fight; the funeral march is in memory of Nelson or Sixth Season, 1912=13 BELASCO THEATRE - 44th STREET, NEAR BROADWAY D D d ^I R r MANNES Two Sonata Recitals Sunday Evening, December 1 5, 1 9 1 2,at 8.30 Sunday Evening, January 19, 1913, at 8.30 STEINWAY PIANO Tickets, $1.50, SI. 00, 50c, on sale at Aeolian Hall, 29 West 42nd Street, Room 1528, Telephone, 6427 Murray Hill. Direction HAENSEL & JONES wammmt^mm General Abercrombie, etc. There can be no doubt that Napoleon, the young conqueror, the Consul, the enemy of kings, worked a spell over Beethoven, as over Berlioz, Hazlitt, Victor Hugo; for, according to W. E. Henley's paradox, although, as despot, Napoleon had "no love for new ideas and no tolerance for intellectual independence," yet he was "the great First Cause of Romanticism." The first performance of the symphony was at a private concert at Prince Lobkowitz's in December, 1804. The composer conducted, and in the second half of the first allegro he brought the orchestra to grief, so that a fresh start was made. The first performance in public was at a concert given by Clement at the Theater an der Wien, April 7, 1805. The symphony was announced as "A new grand Symphony in D- sharp by Herr Ludwig van Beethoven, dedicated to his Excellence Prince von Lobkowitz." Beethoven conducted. Czerny remembered that some one shouted from the gallery: "I'd give another kreuzer if they would stop." Beethoven's friends declared the work a master- piece.

  • Berg's Worlds
    Copyrighted Material Berg’s Worlds CHRISTOPHER HAILEY Vienna is not the product of successive ages but a layered composite of its accumulated pasts. Geography has made this place a natural crossroads, a point of cultural convergence for an array of political, economic, religious, and ethnic tributaries. By the mid-nineteenth century the city’s physical appearance and cultural characteristics, its customs and conventions, its art, architecture, and literature presented a collage of disparate historical elements. Gothic fervor and Renaissance pomp sternly held their ground against flights of rococo whimsy, and the hedonistic theatricality of the Catholic Baroque took the pious folk culture from Austria’s alpine provinces in worldly embrace. Legends of twice-repelled Ottoman invasion, dreams of Holy Roman glories, scars of ravaging pestilence and religious perse- cution, and the echoes of a glittering congress that gave birth to the post-Napoleonic age lingered on amid the smug comforts of Biedermeier domesticity. The city’s medieval walls had given way to a broad, tree-lined boulevard, the Ringstrasse, whose eclectic gallery of historical styles was not so much a product of nineteenth-century historicist fantasy as the styl- ized expression of Vienna’s multiple temporalities. To be sure, the regulation of the Danube in the 1870s had channeled and accelerated its flow and introduced an element of human agency, just as the economic boom of the Gründerzeit had introduced opportunities and perspectives that instilled in Vienna’s citizens a new sense of physical and social mobility. But on the whole, the Vienna that emerged from the nineteenth century lacked the sense of open-ended promise that charac- terized the civic identities of midwestern American cities like Chicago or St.

  • Richard Strauss
    RICHARD STRAUSS: The Origin, Dissemination and Reception of his Mozart Renaissance Raymond lIolden I I \,--,~/ PhD Goldsmiths' College University of London 1 Abstract Richard Strauss holds an important place in the history of performance. Of the major musical figures active during the second half of the nineteenth and the first half of the twentieth centuries, his endeavours as a Mozartian are of particular importance. Strauss' special interest in the works of Mozart was seminal to both his performance and compositional aesthetics. As a result of this affinity, Strauss consciously set out to initiate a Mozart renaissance that embodied a precise set of principles and reforms. It was these principles and reforms, described as literalist, rather than those of artists such .as Gustav Mahler, who edited Mozart's works both musically and dramatically, that found further expression in the readings of, amongst others, Otto Klemperer, George Szell, Sir John Pritchard and Wolfgang Sawallisch. It is the aim of this dissertation to investigate Strauss' activities as a Mozartian and to assess his influence on subsequent generations of Mozart conductors. Accordingly, the dissertation is divided into an Introduction, five chapters, a Conclusion and thirteen appendices. These consider both the nature and ramifications of Strauss' reforms and performance aesthetic. Within this framework, the breadth of his renaissance; his choice of edition, cuts and revisions; his use of tempo, as a means of structural delineation; his activities with respect to the

    HOLLIS, DEBORAH LEE, D.M.A. Orchestral Color in Richard Strauss’s Lieder: Enhancing Performance Choices of All of Strauss’s Lieder through a Study of His Orchestrated Lieder. (2009) Directed by Dr. James Douglass. 83 pp. Strauss was a major composer of Lieder , with more than 200 published songs composed between 1870 and 1948, many of which belong to the standard song repertoire. Strauss’s lieder are distinctive because they reflect his simultaneous preoccupation with composing tone poems and operas. The vocal lines are declamatory, dramatic, and lyrical, while the accompaniments are richly textured. Strauss learned the craft of orchestration through studying scores of the masters, playing in orchestras, conducting, and through exposure to prominent composers. Equally important was his affiliation with leading figures of the New German School including Liszt, Wagner, and Berlioz. Berlioz used the expressive characteristics of the orchestral instruments as the primary inspiration for his compositions. Like Berlioz, Strauss used tone color as a crucial element that gave expression to poetic ideas in his symphonic works, operas, and songs. Strauss’s approach to orchestration gives insight into ways that a collaborative pianist may use tone color to enhance renderings of all of the composer’s lieder. In this study, I use my own analysis of Strauss’s orchestrations of his songs, as well as Strauss’s statements in his revision of Berlioz’s Treatise on Instrumentation , to show how his orchestrations bring out important aspects of the songs, clarifying and enriching their meaning. I further show how collaborative pianists can emulate these orchestral effects at the keyboard using specific techniques of touch, pedal, and phrasing, thereby rendering each song richer and more meaningful.
