History has accorded him footnote status in two of these areas of endeavour: as an educator with an enviable list of students, and as the Director of the Hoch Conservatory in Frankfurt from 923 to 933. During that period he established an opera school, much expanded the area of early-childhood music-education and, most notoriously, in 928 established the world’s irst academic class in jazz studies, a decision which unleashed a storm of controversy and protest from nationalist and fascist quarters. But Sekles was also a composer, a very good one whose music is imbued with a considerable dose of the unexpected; it is traditional without being derivative. He had the unenviable position of spending the prime of his life in a nation irst rent by war and then enmeshed in a grotesque and ultimately suicidal battle between the warring political ideologies that paved the way for the Nazi take-over of 933. he banning of his music by the Nazis and its subsequent inability to re-establish itself in the repertoire has obscured the fact that, dating back to at least 99, the integration of jazz elements in his works marks him as one of the irst European composers to use this emerging art-form within a formal classical structure.

    1 JOSEF SCHELB: CHAMBER MUSIC WITH CLARINET by Hartmut Becker Te composer and pianist Josef Schelb is one of the most important creative musicians from south-western Germany in the early to mid-twentieth century. Unlike the older Julius Weismann (1879–1950), who came from the same area of southern Baden, Schelb belonged to the generation of Frank Martin, Prokofev, Honegger, Milhaud and Hindemith. All were raised in conservative traditions; no sooner had they completed their studies than they experienced the cataclysmic cultural collapse that was the First World War. It is easier to understand Josef Schelb’s intellectual origins and creative activities if one considers the context and the events in his musical training. Josef Schelb was born on 14 March 1894, the son of a spa doctor in the tranquil watering place of Bad Krozingen. Te young Josef’s musical talent developed very early and at such a rate that while he was a pupil at the Bertold Gymnasium in Freiburg, no suitable teacher could be found for him locally. His parents therefore decided that he should pay regular visits to Basle, where he could be taught to an appropriate standard by the director of the city conservatoire, Hans Huber (1852– 1921), who himself had trained as a pianist and composer under Carl Reinecke at the Leipzig Conservatoire. Under Huber the young Josef reached the point where, afer gaining his Abitur in Freiburg in 1913, he felt equipped for the life of a professional musician. Schelb chose to study in the French-Swiss city of Geneva. Franz Liszt’s last important pupil, Bernhard Stavenhagen (1862–1914), had been active there since 1907.

    HANS ROS BAUD: A DISCOGRAPHY by Les lie Gerber Hans Rosbaud was born in Graz, Austria, on July 22, 1895. His major studies were at the music conservatory of Frankfurt am Main. In 1929 be was appointed to his first major post, director of the Mainz School of Music. He left the following year to become conductor-in-chief of Radio Frankfurt. During World War II he was musical director of the city of Strasbourg. In 1945 he became conductor of the Munich Philharmonic. Rosbaud's most important appointment was made in 1948, when he was picked to reorganize and conduct the orchestra which became the Southwest German Radio Orchestra of Baden-Baden. Although devoting him­ self to other projects as well, Rosbaud's main interest seems to have been the Baden-Baden orchestra, of which he remained director until his death. In 1952 he be­ came conductor of the Zurich Tonhalle Orchestra, and in 1958 was made chief conductor of the Zurich Stadt­ theater. Other activities of Rosbaud's last years were his appearances at the Aix-en-Provence Festival and at the Donaueschinger Musiktage. He died in Lugano, Switzerland, on December 29, 1962. Rosbaud occupies a virtually unique position in the history of conducting. Almost alone among conductors of his generation (Hermann Scherchen is perhaps the only other example), he was as devoted to the most ad­ vanced productions of the contemporary avant-garde as to the works of the great classical tradition. As early as 1933 he bad the honor of conducting the first per­ formance of Bart6k's Piano Concerto No.

  • Celebrate Beethoven Catalogue Ludwig Van Beethoven (1770–1827)
    CELEBRATE BEETHOVEN CATALOGUE LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN (1770–1827) Born in Bonn in 1770, the eldest son of a singer in the Kapelle of the Archbishop-Elector of Cologne and grandson of the Archbishop’s Kapellmeister, Beethoven moved in 1792 to Vienna. There he had some lessons from Haydn and others, quickly establishing himself as a remarkable keyboard player and original composer. By 1815 increasing deafness had made public performance impossible and accentuated existing eccentricities of character, patiently tolerated by a series of rich patrons and his royal pupil the Archduke Rudolph. Beethoven did much to enlarge the possibilities of music and widen the horizons of later generations of composers. To his contemporaries he was sometimes a controversial figure, making heavy demands on listeners by both the length and the complexity of his writing, as he explored new fields of music. Beethoven’s monumental contribution to Western classical music is celebrated here in this definitive collection marking the 250th anniversary of the composer’s birth. ThisCELEBRATE BEETHOVEN catalogue contains an impressive collection of works by this master composer across the Naxos Music Group labels.

The Baroque, especially Bach, Handel, Mozart and Gluck, drew his creative fire to which he coupled a dedication to authenticity of style. These were his obsessions as conductor and keyboardist. It was in this latter capacity that he figured strongly Recordings from in Dame Myra Hess's National Gallery wartime concerts.
