PSALMUS HUNGARICUS OP. 13 Soloist: WILLIAM LEWIS, tenor Baldwin Piano PROGRAM NOTES By BERNARD JACOBSON BLOCH Avodath Hakodesh (Morning Service) (1880-1959) Ernest Bloch's Sacred Service, as it is usually called, was composed between 1930 and 1933. lt was thus the first large-scale work by a major composer to be written for Jewish worship-Milhaud, with his Sabbath Morning Service of 1947, is among those who have followed suit. A vodath Hakodesh is one of several Bloch works on specifically Jewish subjects. The most important of the others are the Hebrew rhapsody for cello and orchestra entitled Sche/omo and the Israel Symphony, both completed in 1916, and perhaps the most popu­ lar is Baal Shem (three Pictures of Chassidic Life for violin and piano, I 923). But as Eric Blom has pointed out, in spite of its subject, the actual music of Avodath Hakodesh is less Jewish and more universal in character than that of these earlier pieces. Insofar as there is ethnic or local coloring in this powerful score, it is of the kind that suggests a certain affinity between the Jewish Middle East and the Eastern Europe of Kodiily's Hungary. For here, as in the Psalmus Hungaricus, are to be found the same emphasis on fourths and fifths (Bloch's harmony leans much more decisively on these intervals than on the thirds and sixths typical of Western European music), and the same liking for Scotch-snap rhythms. The theme - stated at the outset and transformed with particularly ingenious effect toward the culmination of Part 11--on which the entire work is based gives another clue to the origins of the inspiration drawn on by this Swiss-born, American-naturalized com­ poser. The similarity of its first four notes to those of the famous motif in the finale of Mozart's "Jupiter'' Symphony is merely superficial. Far more significant is the fact that the first three of these notes suggest one of the most common melodic formulations of the ancient Gregorian chant. This music, indeed, is as universal in time as it is in place. It is not old-fashioned, and yet it is not exactly modern either. The important thing is that it was written by a composer of vivid individuality, and any echoes it may call up are fully assimi lated in its own very potent musical and emotional atmosphere. English version of the Hebrew text PART I Meditation (Prelude)-Ma Tovu How goodly are thy tents, 0 Jacob, thy dwellings, 0 Israel! Through Thy great mercy, 0 God, I come to Thy house and bow down in Thy holy temple in the fear of Thee. 0 Lord, I love the place of Thy house and the abode in which Thy glory dwelleth. And so I bow down and adore Thee, 0 God, my Maker. May my prayer be offered in an acceptable time; mayest Thou, in the greatness of Thy mercy, answer me according to Thy faithfulness. Bor'chu Praise ye the Lord to whom all praise is due. Praised be the Lord to whom all praise is due forever and ever. Sh'ma Yisroel Hear, 0 Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One. Praised be His name whose glorious kingdom is forever and ever. V'ohavto Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, with all thy soul and with all thy might. And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be upon thy heart. Thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt speak of them when thou sittest in thy house, when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou riscst up. Thou shalt bind them for a sign upon thy hand and they shall be for frontlets between thine eyes. Thou shalt write them upon the doorposts of thy house and upon thy gates: That ye may remember and do all My commandments and be holy unto your God. Mi Chomocho Who is like unto Thee, 0 Lord? Who is like unto Thee, glorious in holiness, awe­ inspiring, working wonders? Tzur Yisroel 0 Rock of Israel, be pleased to redeem those who are oppressed, and deliver those that are persecuted. Praised be Thou, our Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. PART II Kedusha (Sanctification) We sanctify Thy name on earth, as the heavens declare Thy glory; and in the words of the prophet we say: Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of His glory. God our Strength, God our Lord, how excellent is Thy name in all the earth. Praised be the glory of God in all the world. Our God is one; He is our Father, He is our King, He is our Helper and in His mercy He will answer our prayers in the sight of all the living. The Lord will reign forever, thy God, 0 Zion, from generation to genera­ tion. Hallelujah! PART III Silent Devotion (Prelude) Response-Yihyu L'rotzon May the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart be acceptable in Thy sight, 0 Lord, my strength and my redeemer. Amen. Seu Sh'orim Lift up your heads, 0 ye gates, and be ye lifted up, ye everlasting doors, that the King of glory may come in. Who is the King of glory? The Lord of hosts; He is the King of glory. Taking the Scroll from the Ark (Interlude) Torah Tzivolz The Torah, which God gave through Moses, is the heritage of the Congregation of Jacob. 0 House of Jacob, let us walk in the light of the Lord. Sh'ma Yisroel Hear, 0 Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One. L'cho Adonoy Thine, 0 Lord, is the greatness and the power, the glory, and the victory, and the majesty; for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is Thine; Thine is the kingdom, 0 Lord, and Thou art exalted as head above all. PART IV Returning the Scroll to the Ark 0 magnify the Lord with me and let us exalt His name together. Hodo AI Eretz His glory is in the earth and in the heavens. He is the strength of all His servants, the praise of them that truly love him, the hope of Israel, the people He brought nigh to Himself-Hallelujah! Toras Adonoy The law of the Lord is perfect, restoring the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple. The precepts of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; the judgments of the Lord are true; they are righteous altogether. Behold, a good doctrine has been given unto you; forsake it not. Etz Chayim (A Peace Song) It is a tree of life to them that hold fast to it, and its supporters are happy. Its ways of pleasantness, and all its paths are peace. PARTY Va' anachnu (Adoration) We bow our heads in reverence, and worship the King of Kings, the Holy One, praised be He. On that Day the Lord shall be One and His name shall be One. Kaddish (Memorial Service) Magnified and sanctified be His great name in the world which He hath created ac­ cording to His will. May He establish His kingdom during your life and during your days, and during the life of all the house of Israel, speedily and soon and say ye, Amen. Let His great name be blessed forever and to ali eternity. Blessed, praised and glorified, exalted, adored and honored, extolled and lauded be the name of the Holy One, blessed be He; though He be high above all the blessings and hymns, praises and consolations, which are uttered in the world; and say ye, Amen. He who makes peace in His high places, may He make peace for us and for all Israel; and say ye, Amen . Adon 0/om (Closing Hymn) The Lord of all did reign supreme Ere yet this world was made and formed. When all was finished by His will, Then was His name as King proclaimed. And should these forms no more exist, He still will rule in majesty. H e was, He is, He shall remain; His glory never shall decrease. And One is He, and none there is To be compared or joined to Him. He ne'er began, and ne'er will end, To Him belongs dominion's power. He is my God, my li vi ng God; To Him I flee when tried in grief; My banner high, my refuge strong, Who hears and answers when I call. My spirit I commit to Him, My body, too, and all I prize; Both when I sleep and when I wake, He is with me, I shall not fear. Benediction May the Lord bless thee and keep thee, Amen. l\fay the L0rd let His countenance shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee. May the Lord lift up His countenance upon thee and give thee peace. Amen. KODALY Psalmus Hungaricus, Op. 13 {1882-1967) Composed in 1923 and first performed on November 19 of that year, the Psalm us Hungaricus is one of Zoltan Kodaly's finest achievements.

    ANNUAL REPORT 2019/20 Fadi Kheir Fadi LETTERS FROM THE LEADERSHIP The New York Philharmonic’s 2019–20 season certainly saw it all. We recall the remarkable performances ranging from Berlioz to Beethoven, with special pride in the launch of Project 19 — the single largest commissioning program ever created for women composers — honoring the ratification of the 19th Amendment. Together with Lincoln Center we unveiled specific plans for the renovation and re-opening of David Geffen Hall, which will have both great acoustics and also public spaces that can welcome the community. In March came the shock of a worldwide pandemic hurtling down the tracks at us, and on the 10th we played what was to be our final concert of the season. Like all New Yorkers, we tried to come to grips with the life-changing ramifications The Philharmonic responded quickly and in one week created NY Phil Plays On, a portal to hundreds of hours of past performances, to offer joy, pleasure, solace, and comfort in the only way we could. In August we launched NY Phil Bandwagon, bringing live music back to New York. Bandwagon presented 81 concerts from Chris Lee midtown to the far reaches of every one of the five boroughs. In the wake of the Erin Baiano horrific deaths of Black men and women, and the realization that we must all participate to change society, we began the hard work of self-evaluation to create a Philharmonic that is truly equitable, diverse, and inclusive. The severe financial challenge caused by cancelling fully a third of our 2019–20 concerts resulting in the loss of $10 million is obvious.

  • Milko Kelemen: Life and Selected Works for Violoncello
    MILKO KELEMEN: LIFE AND SELECTED WORKS FOR VIOLONCELLO by JOSIP PETRAČ (Under the Direction of David Starkweather) ABSTRACT Milko Kelemen (b. 1924) is one of the most extraordinary Croatian composers of the post-World War II era. He has received numerous prestigious awards for his work, while his compositions are published by major companies, including Schott, Universal, Peters, and Hans Sikorski editions. His music is little studied or known internationally. This paper examines this innovative, avant-garde musician and sheds light both on Kelemen’s life and his compositional technique. The latter is examined in four compositions featuring cello as the main subject: Changeant (1968), Drammatico (1983), Requiem for Sarajevo (1994), and Musica Amorosa (2004). The examination of these compositions is placed in a biographical context which reveals how Kelemen’s keen political and cultural interests influenced his development as a composer. In particular, this document looks at Kelemen’s role as one of the founders, and the first president, of the Zagreb Music Biennale Festival, an event known for its ground-breaking work in bringing together artists and composers from the eastern and western blocs during the Cold War, as well as revitalising Croatia’s old-fashioned and provincial cultural scene. This festival of avant-garde music has been running since 1961.
