CommEntS by PhilliP huSChEr ne hundred years ago, the Chicago Symphony paid tribute Oto the centenary of the birth of Franz Liszt with the pro- gram of music Riccardo Muti conducts this week to honor the bicentennial of the composer’s birth. Today, Liszt’s stature in the music world seems diminished—his music is not all that regularly performed, aside from a few works, such as the B minor piano sonata, that have never gone out of favor; and he is more a name in the history books than an indispensable part of our concert life.

  • 200 Anos De Franz Liszt: II. Transcrições E Experiências Harmônicas
    200 anos de Franz Liszt: II. Transcrições e Experiências harmônicas Transcrições “Franz Liszt, am Flügel phantasieren”, pintura de 1840 de Josef Danhauser A metade da obra catalogada de Liszt (no total de quase 1000) são transcrições das obras de outros compositores para piano solo – como sinfonias, canções e obras camerísticas. Mas Liszt é o primeiro pianista a dar à transcrição um papel que vai muito além de uma “redução” funcional de podermos ver uma obra grandiosa resumida em duas claves, pois ele transforma a transcrição em uma verdadeira tradução da obra para uma nova linguagem, a linguagem do piano. São famosas as suas transcrições das sinfonias de Beethoven, mas há também a transcrição da Sinfonia “Fantástica” de Berlioz, do “Liebestod” do Tristão e Isolda de Wagner, de diversas canções de Schubert e até do Requiem de Mozart. O que chama a atenção nas transcrições não é apenas que elas acabaram contribuindo para a própria história da escrita pianística ao buscarem recursos que dessem conta de outras sonoridades, texturas e dimensões, mas também como Liszt concebia a transcrição como uma obra própria, que deveria se justificar independentemente da obra original e por isso demandava necessidades próprias, que ele poderia resolver com compassos totalmente novos. Como exemplo, compare-se a belíssima canção “Kriegers Ahnung” do ciclo Schwanengesang (1828) de Schubert: [audio:http://euterpe.blog.br/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Schubert-Lieder-D-95 7-Schwanengesang-02.-Kriegers-Ahnung-D.-Fischer-Dieskau-G.- Moore-1957.mp3|titles=Schubert – Lieder D 957 ‘Schwanengesang’ – 02. Kriegers Ahnung (D. Fischer-Dieskau & G. Moore – 1957)] O libretto em alemão seguido de uma tradução em português pode ser acessado aqui.

CMF’s mission is ‘turning talent into success’. We select exceptional professional musicians at the start of their careers when managing ‘the business of music’ can be a challenge, and support them with a comprehensive career development programme. We arrange mentoring, run workshops, do agency and management, make CDs, videos and websites, commission new music, secure airtime on BBC Radio 3 and promotion though online, print and social media, and put on our own recitals and concerts. CMF Alumni tell us of the many ways CMF has helped them during those very fragile early stages of their professional careers. Getting the necessary visibility, and developing networks, gaining recognition in the industry, having recordings – all this has allowed them to secure their careers as performers. Our aim is that CMF Artists are ready for four decades or more of contributing to society’s culture and wellbeing – reaching hundreds of thousands through live performance, CDs, streaming, broadcast, teaching and mentoring – giving back a thousandfold what CMF has given them. If you'd like to support our work you can donate online (cafdonate.cafonline.org/7944) or by cheque (post to: Church House, Cloth Fair, London EC1A 7JQ).

    FAUST & 19TH CENTURY ORCHESTRAL MUSIC LA FAUST SYMPHONY (1856) FRANZ LISZT (1811 -1886) In Three Character-pictures For Tenor, Male Chorus and Orchestra >Dedicated to Berlioz. >Composed during Liszt's years of service as court composer to the Duchy of Weimar. Liszt's patron at Weimar was the grandson of Goethe's Duke, and he specifically engaged the composer to restore the Duchy to the artistic prestige it had enjoyed under his ancestor. >A cyclic symphony, with Liszt's characteristic "thematic transformation". I. FAUST >Five main musical ideas: a. Faust the Magician (0:01). Atonal -adrift from the regulated universe of traditional tonal harmony. Fully chromatic---after the first note all twelve of the possible musical tones are heard. Use of the "mysterious" augmented chord in a melodic form. b."Doubt" (0:35). A large dissonant interval begins this idea. Also extremely chromatic. c."Passion" (4:29). Fast and agitated. Largely based on a descending chromatic scale. d."Love" (9:05). This music has a clear, Romantic (and romantic) affect. Much slower and very lyrical. Note its close thematic similarity to the "Doubt" motive. e."Pride" (11: 10). Noble and heroic. Not dissonant and much less chromatic. The rhythm of this motive is associated by some scholars with the words "In Anfang war die Tat" ("In the beginning was the deed"). >A vast and imaginative movement that seeks to portray the breadth and inconsistencies of Faust's personality. >The first two ideas are presented in what musicians hear as an "Introduction". Recall that the final movement of Berlioz's "Fantastic Symphony" all so begins with a mysterious, seemingly inchoate introduction that is also highly chromatic and engaged in the depiction of creepy, supernatural elements.
