Ludwig van Beethoven (Born at Bonn, December 16 (?), 1770; died at Vienna, March 26, 1827) This overture was composed in 1810; it was published in 1811. The music to Goethe's play—overture, four entr'actes, two songs sung by Clarchen, "Clarchen's Death," "Melodrama," and "Triumph Symphony" (identical with the coda of the overture) for the end of the play, nine numbers in all—was performed for the first time with the tragedy at the Hofburg Theater, Vienna, May 24, 1810. Antonie Adamberger was the Clarchen. When Hartl took the management of the two Vienna Court thea- tres, January 1, 1808, he produced plays by Schiller. He finally de- termined to produce plays by Goethe and Schiller with music, and he chose Schiller's "Tell" and Goethe's "Egmont." Beethoven and Gyrowetz were asked to write the music. The former was anxious to compose the music for "Tell" ; but, as Czerny tells the story, there were intrigues and, as "Egmont" was thought to be less suggestive to a composer, the music for that play was assigned to Beethoven. Gyrowetz's music to "Tell" was performed June 14, 1810. It was described by a correspondent of a Leipsic journal of music as "char- NEW CHRISTMAS MUSIC Anthems—Mixed Voices AVERY, STANLEY GAUL, HARVEY (Arranger) Joy to the World (Based on And the Trees do moan "Antioch") Octavo No. 14,319 .15 Octavo No. 14,308 15 Stars lead us ever on Octavo No. 14,320 .15 BARNES, EDWARD SHIPPEN The Shepherds and the Inn It came upon the midnight clear Octavo No. 14,318 .15 Octavo No. 14,304 ,. .15 HOSMER, E.

The overture has a short, slow introduction, sostenuto ma non troppo, F minor, 3-2. The main body of the overture is an allegro, F minor, 34. The first theme is in the strings; each phrase is a de- scending arpeggio in the violoncellos, closing with a sigh in the first violins ; the antithesis begins with a "sort of sigh" in the wood-wind, then in the strings, then there is a development into passage-work.

  • Forgotten Splendour
    FORGOTTEN SPLENDOUR A Chronology of the North Shore Music Festival 1909 to 1939 by Andrew Cottonaro Beginning in 1909 and lasting until 1939, the North Shore Music Festival of Northwestern University was a significant musical and social event in the Chicago area. For a few days each Spring, the campus hosted a diverse body of performers in a series of grand concerts. Naturally, some of that era’s most eminent singers could be heard there. Their presence certainly helped to sell tickets and their artistry helped to sustain the festival as a popular and critical success. Now, sixty years later, the festival hardly even counts as a faded memory. To date, two books (in part), offer a general outline of the festival’s history, but both lack any detailed analysis of who appeared and what was actually sung. This is the first attempt to present a chronology of the vocal offerings (quite distinct from the orchestral offerings) at the festival. Northwestern University, the official sponsor of the festival, is located in Evanston, Illinois (USA). The town is a suburb of Chicago, directly north of the city and on the banks of Lake Michigan. Because of this geographic position, Evanston and the other cities of the area are called the North Shore, hence the origin of the festival’s name. Northwestern University was incorporated in 1850 and gradually won recognition for its academic excellence. The establishment of musical studies, however, was a tangled web of many failed efforts. In a final and desperate attempt to salvage musical education, the university’s board of trustees in 1891 appointed Peter Christian Lutkin (1858-1931) to direct musical studies, a post that he held until his death.
