  • Handel' S Organ Concerto S Reconsidered
    Handel' s Organ ConcertoConcertos s Reconsidered By NIELS KARL NIELSEN Due to the solid foundatiansfoundations provided by the research carried out by Chrysan­ der, W. Dean, O. E. Deutsch, J. P. Larsen, W. C. Smith and others the study of Randel'sHandel's works has been rendered much easier to-day than it was a mere twenty years ago; this, however, does not mean that all the problems have been solved. On the contrary, many still await exhaustive treatment. Whereas a vast number of books have been written ab out Randel'sHandel's vocal compositions, and the Oratorios in particular, a detailed study of his Organ Concertos, based on the autograph scores and other contemporary sources has not yet been made. Ehrlinger's dissertation 1 contains many valuable observa­ tions; nevertheless its importance is reduced considerably by the faetfact that he did not incorporate the original sources in his research. Accordingly, in the present study I intend to remedy this gap in our knowl­ edge of RandelHandel and his work, by discussing problems such as-date of composi­ tion-sources-original versions-style afof performance, and last but not least, the inevitable question of Randel'sHandel's borrowings. Some of these problems have of course been dealt with before, but I still find it worthwhile to try and collate as much information as possibiepossible about these aspects of Randel'sHandel's wark.work. RandelHandel embarked upon his concertos for organ and orchestra in dose con­ nection with his efforts to introduce the oratorio as a parallel to the produetionproduction of operas which had dominated his work in London up to the beginning of the 1730's.

  • The Cambridge Haydn Encyclopedia Edited by Caryl Clark , Sarah Day-O'connell Frontmatter More Information
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-12901-6 — The Cambridge Haydn Encyclopedia Edited by Caryl Clark , Sarah Day-O'Connell Frontmatter More Information The Cambridge Haydn Encyclopedia For well over two hundred years, Joseph Haydn has been by turns lionized and misrepresented – held up as a celebrity, and disparaged as a mere forerunner or point of comparison. And yet, unlike many other canonic composers, his music has remained a fixture in the repertoire from his day until ours. What do we need to know now in order to understand Haydn and his music? With over eighty entries focused on ideas and seven longer thematic essays to bring these together, this distinctive and richly illustrated encyclopedia offers a new per- spective on Haydn and the many cultural contexts in which he worked and left his indelible mark during the Enlightenment and beyond. Contributions from sixty-seven scholars and performers in Europe, the Americas, and Oceania capture the vitality of Haydn studies today – its variety of perspectives and methods – and ultimately inspire further exploration of one of Western music’s most innovative and influential composers. CARYL CLARK is Professor of Music History and Culture at the Faculty of Music, University of Toronto, and a Fellow of Trinity College. Editor of The Cambridge Companion to Haydn (Cambridge, 2005), and author of Haydn’s Jews: Representation and Reception on the Operatic Stage (Cambridge, 2009), her research interests include Enlightenment aesthetics, interdisciplinary opera studies, Orpheus and Orphic resonances, and the politics of musical reception – all generously funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada.

  • Solo List and Reccomended List for 02-03-04 Ver 3
    Please read this before using this recommended guide! The following pages are being uploaded to the OSSAA webpage STRICTLY AS A GUIDE TO SOLO AND ENSEMBLE LITERATURE. In 1999 there was a desire to have a required list of solo and ensemble literature, similar to the PML that large groups are required to perform. Many hours were spent creating the following document to provide “graded lists” of literature for every instrument and voice part. The theory was a student who made a superior rating on a solo would be required to move up the list the next year, to a more challenging solo. After 2 years of debating the issue, the music advisory committee voted NOT to continue with the solo/ensemble required list because there was simply too much music written to confine a person to perform from such a limited list. In 2001 the music advisor committee voted NOT to proceed with the required list, but rather use it as “Recommended Literature” for each instrument or voice part. Any reference to “required lists” or “no exceptions” in this document need to be ignored, as it has not been updated since 2001. If you have any questions as to the rules and regulations governing solo and ensemble events, please refer back to the OSSAA Rules and Regulation Manual for the current year, or contact the music administrator at the OSSAA. 105 SOLO ENSEMBLE REGULATIONS 1. Pianos - It is recommended that you use digital pianos when accoustic pianos are not available or if it is most cost effective to use a digital piano.
