The orchestration: 2 flutes and piccolo, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 bassoons and contra-bassoon, 4 horns, 3 trumpets, 3 trombones, tuba, bass drum, timpani, cymbals, triangle and strings. Brahms' two overtures, the "Akademische Fest-OuvertiXre" and the "Tragische Ouvertiire" were composed in one summer — in 1880 at Bad Ischl. It was his first summer in this particular resort, and although he was somewhat discouraged by an abundance of rainy weather, its charms drew him again in later years (1889-96). "I must give high praise to Ischl," he wrote to Billroth in June, 1880, "and although I am threatened only with one thing — the fact that half Vienna is here — I can be quiet here — and on the whole I do not dislike it." Which is to say that Ischl had already become the gather- ing point of a constant round of cronies from Vienna. Brahms' friends of course would scrupulously respect the solitudes of the master's mornings — the creative hours spent, partly in country walks, partly in his study. Later in the day he would welcome the relaxation of companionship — of conversation to an accompaniment of black cigars and coffee, of mountaineering (Brahms was a sturdy walker), or of music-making together. When the University at Breslau conferred upon Brahms, in the spring of 1879, the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, the composer responded in kind, and made the institution the handsome present of an overture on student airs. Presents of this sort are not to be unduly hastened when artistic good faith and the heritage of the musical world are considered.

AVE. HARVARD SQUARE Opp. Widener Library KI 7-2007 [6] "Academic" overture before this one, if Heuberger is not mistaken. The performance came the following January, when Brahms con- ducted it at Breslau, while the Herr Rektor and members of the philosophical faculty sat in serried ranks, presumably gowned, in the front rows. It goes without saying that both Brahms and his overture were quite innocent of such "academic" formality. It is about a tavern table, the faculty forgotten, that music enters spontaneously into German college life. Although Brahms never attended a university he had tasted something of this life at Gottingen when, as a younger man, he visited with Joachim, who was studying at the University. Brahms did not forget the melody that filled the Kneipe, inspired by good company and good beer. Student songs, with their Volkslied flavor, inevitably interested him. He found use for four of them. "Wir hatten gebauet ein stdttliches Haus" is first given out by the trumpets. "Der Landesvater" ("Hort, ich sing' das Lied der Lieder") is used rhyth- mically, delightfully developed. The "Fuchslied" or Freshman's Song ('Was kommt dort von der Hoh' ") is the choice of the unbuttoned Brahms, and leaves all educational solemnities behind. The air is introduced by two bassoons. When Brahms wrote Kalbeck that he had composed "a very jolly potpourri on students' songs a la Suppe" Kalbeck inquired jokingly whether he had used the "Fox song." "Oh, yes," said Brahms complacently. Kalbeck, taken aback, protested that he could not imagine any such tune used in homage to the "leathery Herr Rektor," and Brahms answered: "That is wholly unnecessary." Brahmsian horseplay does not get quite out of hand, and the dignities are saved beyond doubt when the full orchestra finally intones the hearty college hymn, "Gaudeamus Igitur."

[7] FOUR ORCHESTRAL PIECES, Op. 12 By Bela Bartok Born in Nagyszentmiklos, Hungary, March 25, 1881; died in New York, September 26, 1945 This suite, published in Germany as "Vier Orchesterstiicke" was composed in 1912. It calls for the following instruments: 4 flutes and 2 piccolos, 3 oboes, 2 English horns, 2 clarinets in B-flat, 2 in E-flat and bass clarinet, 4 bassoons and contra-bassoon, 4 horns, 4 trumpets, 4 trombones and tuba, 2 harps, piano (four hands), celesta, timpani, triangle, tam tam, glockenspiel, bass drum and snare drum. Bela Bartok wrote his Four Orchestral Pieces at the age of thirty- one, having then composed his two Suites for Orchestra, Op. 3 and 4 in 1905 and 1907 (each to be revised years later), his one act Opera, Duke Bluebeard's Castle, Op. 11, in 1911, his Two Portraits and Two Images for Orchestra, Op. 5 and 10, in 1908 and 1910, together with various piano pieces and songs. His first quartet, Op. 7, was composed in 1908. The opening piece of Opus 12 is rhapsodic in style with free fluctua- tions in tempo. It has a consistent melodic line, usually carried by the violins to a rich and colorful accompaniment of chords and arpeggios, in which the piano and the harps play a continuous part.

  • Percy Grainger, Frederick Delius and the 1914–1934 American ‘Delius Campaign’
    ‘The Art-Twins of Our Timestretch’: Percy Grainger, Frederick Delius and the 1914–1934 American ‘Delius Campaign’ Catherine Sarah Kirby Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Music (Musicology) April 2015 Melbourne Conservatorium of Music The University of Melbourne Produced on archival quality paper Abstract This thesis explores Percy Grainger’s promotion of the music of Frederick Delius in the United States of America between his arrival in New York in 1914 and Delius’s death in 1934. Grainger’s ‘Delius campaign’—the title he gave to his work on behalf of Delius— involved lectures, articles, interviews and performances as both a pianist and conductor. Through this, Grainger was responsible for a number of noteworthy American Delius premieres. He also helped to disseminate Delius’s music by his work as a teacher, and through contact with publishers, conductors and the press. In this thesis I will examine this campaign and the critical reception of its resulting performances, and question the extent to which Grainger’s tireless promotion affected the reception of Delius’s music in the USA. To give context to this campaign, Chapter One outlines the relationship, both personal and compositional, between Delius and Grainger. This is done through analysis of their correspondence, as well as much of Grainger’s broader and autobiographical writings. This chapter also considers the relationship between Grainger, Delius and others musicians within their circle, and explores the extent of their influence upon each other. Chapter Two examines in detail the many elements that made up the ‘Delius campaign’.

  • Samuel Zyman's Concerto for Cello and Orchestra
    Samuel Zyman’s Concerto for Cello and Orchestra: An Analytical Approach* JORGE BARRÓN CORVERA Universidad Autónoma de Zacatecas Abstract A professor at The Juilliard School since 1986, Zyman is one of Mexico’s foremost composers of today. His cello concerto (1990) exhibits solid technique, intense expression, and effective interaction between soloist and orchestra. The author demonstrates much stylistic and formal freedom. His opus mixes both antique and modern references within traditional instrumental usage and prevailing neomodal flair. One outstanding feature is the full exploitation of a basic melody to generate an interrelated musical idiom that reveals both unity and variety. The appendix contains an interview with the Mexican artist. Keywords: Samuel Zyman, Mexican composers, Concerto for violoncello and orchestra Resumen Profesor en la Juilliard School desde 1986, Zyman es uno de los más distinguidos compositores mexicanos en la actualidad. Su concierto para violonchelo (1990) revela solidez técnica, profunda expresión y excelente interacción entre solista y orquesta. El autor despliega libertad estilística y formal en una obra que fusiona referencias antiguas y modernas dentro de un empleo instrumental tradicional y un predominante sabor neomodal. Una característica sobresaliente es la explotación de material melódico básico para generar un idioma musical interconectado que revela tanto unidad como variedad. El apéndice incluye una entrevista con el compositor. Palabras claves: Samuel Zyman, compositores mexicanos, concierto para violonchelo y orquesta Introduction Excellently achieved, Zyman’s cello concerto displays great craftsmanship and deep, alluring expression.1 It succeeds in a large number of musical parameters –melody, harmony, texture, rhythm, form, and orchestration. The composer seems to “juggle” these aspects continuously in a creative, organic manner.

  • Delius (1862-1934)
    BRITISH ORCHESTRAL MUSIC (Including Orchestral Poems, Suites, Serenades, Variations, Rhapsodies, Concerto Overtures etc) A Discography of CDs & LPs Prepared by Michael Herman Frederick Delius (1862-1934) Born in Bradford to German parents. His family had not destined him for a musical career but due to the persuasion of Edvard Grieg his father allowed him to attend the Leipzig Conservatory where he was a pupil of Hans Sitt and Carl Reinecke. His true musical education, however, came from his exposure to the music of African-American workers in Florida as well as the influences of Grieg, Wagner and the French impressionists. His Concertos and other pieces in classical forms are not his typical works and he is best known for his nature-inspired short orchestral works. He also wrote operas that have yielded orchestral preludes and intermezzos in his most characteristic style. Sir Thomas Beecham was his great champion both during Delius’ lifetime and after his death.
