'Dream Job: Next Exit?'
Understanding Bach, 9, 9–24 © Bach Network UK 2014 ‘Dream Job: Next Exit?’: A Comparative Examination of Selected Career Choices by J. S. Bach and J. F. Fasch BARBARA M. REUL Much has been written about J. S. Bach’s climb up the career ladder from church musician and Kapellmeister in Thuringia to securing the prestigious Thomaskantorat in Leipzig.1 Why was the latter position so attractive to Bach and ‘with him the highest-ranking German Kapellmeister of his generation (Telemann and Graupner)’? After all, had their application been successful ‘these directors of famous court orchestras [would have been required to] end their working relationships with professional musicians [take up employment] at a civic school for boys and [wear] “a dusty Cantor frock”’, as Michael Maul noted recently.2 There was another important German-born contemporary of J. S. Bach, who had made the town’s shortlist in July 1722—Johann Friedrich Fasch (1688–1758). Like Georg Philipp Telemann (1681–1767), civic music director of Hamburg, and Christoph Graupner (1683–1760), Kapellmeister at the court of Hessen-Darmstadt, Fasch eventually withdrew his application, in favour of continuing as the newly- appointed Kapellmeister of Anhalt-Zerbst. In contrast, Bach, who was based in nearby Anhalt-Köthen, had apparently shown no interest in this particular vacancy across the river Elbe. In this article I will assess the two composers’ positions at three points in their professional careers: in 1710, when Fasch left Leipzig and went in search of a career, while Bach settled down in Weimar; in 1722, when the position of Thomaskantor became vacant, and both Fasch and Bach were potential candidates to replace Johann Kuhnau; and in 1730, when they were forced to re-evaluate their respective long-term career choices. -

2. French Baroque Sacred Choral Music 1643-1774
2. FRENCH BAROQUE SACRED CHORAL MUSIC 1643-1774 By Jason Allen Anderson 1) Historical Context a) Spanned the reigns of four Bourbon kings and three regents b) Restrict our study to the last two regents and kings i) Anne of Austria, Regent for Louis XIV (1643-1651) ii) Louis XIV ‘Le Roi Soleil’ (1643-1715) iii) Philippe d’Orléans, Regent for Louis XV (1715-1723) iv) Louis XV (1715-1774) 2) Hallmarks of the French Baroque Musical Style a) Galant “ornamented with many small figures and passages” (Grove Online) b) Rococo “A term from decorative art that has been applied by analogy to music, especially French music, of the 18th century” (Grove Online) i) Originated in France during the last years of the 17th century ii) Born of a relaxation of the rules of French classicism iii) Derivation of the term (rocaille, ‘shellwork’) is post facto and pejorative, like most critical descriptions of the style c) Slow to adopt Italian innovations, such as oratorio, basso continuo, the recitative, the formal aria, and the concertato d) Church music in France is very different from church music elsewhere on the continent (Palisca 265). i) Causes of reluctance to adopt above innovations include: (1) Control of the monarch (often at the insistence of Lully) on all matters related to music, art, architecture, dance—in essence all the fine and performing arts in an attempt to cultivate a French national style; consequently, (2) Musicians from other parts of Europe rarely found employment in the musical establishments of both court and church in France; thus, the other national styles were unable to penetrate those establishments through foreigners. -

H-France Review Volume 6 (2006) Page 645 H-France Review Vol. 6 (December 2006), No. 149 Lionel Sawkins, A Thematic Catalogue of the Works of Michel-Richard de Lalande (1657-1726). Oxford and New York: Oxford University Press, 2005. xlvii + 700 pp. Tables, colour plate, figures, facsimiles, music examples, bibliography, and index of titles and first lines. $225.00 U.S. (cl). ISBN 0-19-816360-6. Review by Graham Sadler, University of Hull. A musical time-traveller from the ancien régime would surely be amazed at the low profile nowadays suffered by Michel-Richard de Lalande. Here was a composer who held many of the most coveted musical posts at the courts of Louis XIV and XV, who developed sacred music in the Sun King’s chapel to its highest peak, and whose legacy of grands motets formed the core repertory of the Concert spirituel for almost half a century after his death.[1] Yet no modern Opera omnia exists; indeed, with the exception of privately produced editions, only a dozen of the sixty-five more-or-less complete grands motets have been published during the past four decades, while earlier editions are, for various reasons, virtually unusable today. The secular works have, for the most part, fared even less well. Such lack of readily available editions has seriously hampered the dissemination of Lalande’s music. Despite the sterling efforts of organisations like the Centre de la Musique Baroque de Versailles, performances remain relatively few and first-class recordings fewer still. Even specialist groups like Les Arts Florissants, La Simphonie du Marais, and Ex Cathedra have between them issued scarcely more than half-a-dozen Lalande CDs. -
