Wolfgang Amadbus Mozart (Born at Salzburg, January 27, 1756; died at Vienna, December 5, 1791.) Mozart wrote his three greatest symphonies in 1788. The one in E-flat is dated June 26, the one in G minor July 25, the one in C major with the fngue-finale August 10. His other works of that year are of little importance with the ex- ception of a piano concerto in D major which he jjlayed at the coronation festivities of Leopold II. at Frankfort in 1790. There are canons and piano pieces, there is the orchestration of Handel's "Acis and Galatea," and there are six German dances and twelve minuets for orchestra. Nor are the works composed in 1789 of interest with the exception of the clarinet quintet and a string quartet dedicated to the King of Prussia. Again we find dances for orchestra,—twelve minuets and twelve German dances. Why is this? 1787 was the year of ''Don Giovanni"; 1790, the year of *'Cosi fan tutte." Was Mozart, as some say, exhausted by the feat of producing tliree symphonies in such a short time? Or was there some reason for discouragement and consequent idleness ? The Ritter Gluck, composer to the Emperor Joseph II., died No- vember 15, 1787, and thus resigned his position with salary of two thousand florins. Mozart was appointed his successor, but the MUSICAL FANCIES A PROGRESSIVE COLLECTION OF PIANOFORTE PIECES BY AMERICAN COMPOSERS FIRST SERIES SECOND SERIES THIRD SERIES Price 75 Cents Each Volume ( Schmidfs Educational Series No. 222 a-b-c) Favorite Selections from the works of BARBOUR, BRANSCOMBE, COURTNEY, DENNEE, FOOTE, FRIML, GRANT-SCHAEFER, HAMER, LYNES, MAXIM, ORTH, PALDI, RISHER, ROGERS, STRONG, WILLIAMS, and others.

And Mozart at this time was sadly in need of money, as his letters show. In a letter of June, 1788, he tells of his new lodgings, where he could have better air, a garden, quiet. In another, dated June 27, he says : "I have done more work in the ten days that I have lived here than in two months in my other lodgings, and I should be much better here, were it not for dismal thoughts that often come to me. I must drive them resolutely away; for I am living comfortably, pleasantly, and cheaply." We know that he borrowed from Puch- berg, a merchant with whom he became acquainted at a Masonic lodge, for the letter with Puchberg's memorandum of the amount is in the collection edited by Nohl. Mozart could not reasonably expect help from the Emperor. The composer of "Don Giovanni" and the "Jupiter" symphony was un- fortunate in his Emperors. The Emperor Joseph was in the habit of getting up at five o'clock; he dined on boiled bacon at 3.15 ; he preferred water, but he would drink a glass of Tokay ; he was continually putting chocolate drops from his waistcoat pocket into his mouth; he gave gold coins to the poor; he was unwilling to sit for his portrait; he had remark- ably fine teeth; he disliked sycophantic fuss; he patronized the English who introduced horse-racing; and Michael Kelly, who tells QUALITY and REPUTATION enable you to know in advance that the VOS© is a most satisfactory piano.

  • Edouard Lalo Symphonie Espagnole for Violin and Orchestra, Op. 21
    PROGRAM NOTES by Phillip Huscher Edouard Lalo Born January 27, 1823, Lille, France. Died April 22, 1892, Paris, France. Symphonie espagnole for Violin and Orchestra, Op. 21 Lalo composed the Symphonie espagnole in 1874 for the violinist Pablo de Sarasate, who introduced the work in Paris on February 7, 1875. The score calls for solo violin and an orchestra consisting of two flutes and piccolo, two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons, four horns, two trumpets, three trombones, timpani, triangle, snare drum, harp, and strings. Performance time is approximately thirty-one minutes. The Chicago Symphony Orchestra's first subscription concert performances of Lalo's Symphonie espagnole were given at the Auditorium Theatre on April 20 and 21, 1900, with Leopold Kramer as soloist and Theodore Thomas conducting. Bizet's Carmen is often thought to have ignited the French fascination with all things Spanish, but Edouard Lalo got there first. His Symphonie espagnole—a Spanish symphony that's really more of a concerto—was premiered in Paris by the virtuoso Spanish violinist Pablo de Sarasate the month before Carmen opened at the Opéra-Comique. And although Carmen wasn't an immediate success (Bizet, who died shortly after the premiere, didn't live to see it achieve great popularity), the Symphonie espagnole quickly became an international hit. It's still Lalo's best-known piece by a wide margin, just as Carmeneventually became Bizet's signature work. Although the surname Lalo is of Spanish origin, Lalo came by his French first name (not to mention his middle names, Victoire Antoine) naturally. His family had been settled in Flanders and in northern France since the sixteenth century.

  • Ottorino Respighi, Musicista Geniale Ed Estroverso a 130 Anni Dalla Nascita
    Ottorino Respighi, musicista geniale ed estroverso a 130 anni dalla nascita. di Giuseppe Testa Ottorino Respighi è, tra i compositori italiani del secolo scorso, quello che trovò diffusione e fama internazionale sin dall’inizio della sua carriera. E’ ricordato soprattutto per i tre poemi sinfonici romani, capolavori della letteratura sinfonica del ‘900 italiano, ma è anche stato un apprezzato musicologo. Respighi nasce a Bologna il 9 luglio 1879, inizia gli studi del pianoforte e del violino con il padre Giuseppe, studi che continua al liceo musicale di Bologna, dove è allievo di F. Sarti per il violino e la viola, C. Dall’Olio per il contrappunto e la fuga, L. Torchi e di G. Martucci per la composizione. E’ proprio Martucci che lo interessa alle forme sinfoniche e cameristiche dei romantici tedeschi, sino ad allora poco praticate in Italia. Si Diploma in violino nel 1899 e in composizione nel 1901 al liceo musicale di Bologna. Subito dopo si trasferisce in Russia dove ricopre il posto di prima viola dell’orchestra del Teatro Imperiale a San Pietroburgo, studiando per cinque mesi con Nikolaj Rimskij-Korsakov con cui può approfondire lo studio della sinfonia e del poema sinfonico, evidenziando la tendenza al descrittivismo e l’abilità nel trattamento dell’orchestra. Nel 1902 è accompagnatore in una scuola di canto a Berlino, dove conosce Ferruccio Busoni ed ha modo di studiare con Max Bruch. Ma la sua attività principale fino al 1908 è quella di violista, solo dopo si dedica alla composizione. Nel 1911 torna in Italia per sostituire il suo maestro L.

    and El Corpus en Sevilla) was premiered on May 9, 1906, at the Salle Pleyel in Paris by the pianist Blanche Selva, who later gave the first performance of Volume II {Rondena, Almeria, and Triana) on September 11, 1907, in St. Jean de Luz. Volume III {ElAlbaicin, El polo, Lavapies) was published in 1907 in Paris, Volume IV {Malaga, Jerez, Eritana) also in Paris in 1908, the year before his death. Born in Madrid, violinist-conductor-composer Enrique Fernandez Arbos (1863-1939) was conductor of the Madrid Symphony Orchestra until resigning in 1936 following the outbreak of Civil War. A brilliant orchestrator, his instrumentation of music from Albeniz's flm'flwas particularly popular. From 1894-1915 he taught violin and viola at the Royal College of Music in London. As a violinist he appeared not only as a soloist, but in a celebrated piano trio with Albeniz and the cellist Augustin Rubio. For the 1903-04 season he was a concertmaster of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, also appearing with the orchestra that year as soloist in the Mendelssohn concerto and playing a concert piece of his own {Tango, Opus 6, No. 3). His international conducting career included guest appearances with major orchestras on both sides of the Atlantic, including the BSO in 1929 and 1931; his 1929 program included two movements from his arrangement of Iberia, at that time just recently published. In 1932 he led the first Spanish performance of Stravinsky's Rite of Spring. Iberia's pieces typically begin with a dance pattern and later introduce a copla (vocal melody) , but show considerable freedom and variety of form in their fine structure.
