  • Hindemith Viola Project
    HINDEMITH VIOLA PROJECT CONCERT II DOCTORAL RECITAL KATHERINE LEWIS, Viola ,,, Wednesday, March 8, 2006 8:00 p.m. Lillian H. Duncan Recital Hall Z975 -2005 Ce l e b ratin g ~1/J Years THE SHEPHERD SCHOOL ~ SIC RICE UNIVERSITY The Hindemith Viola Project brings together fifteen viola students from the combined studios of Karen Ritscher and James Dunham to perform this unique series of concerts featuring music for the viola by the eminent German composer and violist Paul Hindemith. These stud­ ents have devoted much of the school year to learning and rehearsing this music in preparation for these concerts, and they participated in a series of all-Hindemith studio classes. Hindemith was a prolific com­ poser in all genres, and his numerous works for the viola occupy a sig­ nificant portion of the repertoire for the instrument. Hindemith's four Solo Sonatas and three Sonatas for Viola and Piano are presented on Tuesday and Thursday in a complete cycle that will demonstrate the virtuosic and sonorous qualities of the viola. These sonatas, composed between 1919 and 1939, are written in a variety of styles that reflect Hindemith's different influences and compositional phases. In addition, two chamber concertos are performed on Wednesday with orchestra: Kammermusik No. 5 and Trauermusik. All of these works were writ­ ten for Hindemith's own performance, and due to his intimate know­ ledge of the viola, they challenge the technique and skill of the violist in new and innovative ways. It is our hope that throughout the week, this project will not only showcase the talents and achievements of the violists at the Shepherd School, but also promote Paul Hindemith, who many consider to be the greatest and most creative violist-composer of all time.

  • Schumann-Masters-Report
    Copyright by Scott Charles Schumann 2011 The Report Committee for Scott Charles Schumann Certifies that this is the approved version of the following report: Interpreting the Mourning Process Through Hindemith’s Trauermusik APPROVED BY SUPERVISING COMMITTEE: Supervisor: David Neumeyer James Buhler Interpreting the Mourning Process Through Hindemith’s Trauermusik by Scott Charles Schumann, B.Music Report Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Music The University of Texas at Austin May 2011 Abstract Interpreting the Mourning Process Through Hindemith’s Trauermusik Scott Charles Schumann, M.Music The University of Texas at Austin, 2011 Supervisor: David Neumeyer Paul Hindemith traveled to London in 1936 intending to give the British premiere of his concerto for viola and chamber orchestra titled Der Schwanendreher on 22 January. The premiere – and much else – was put into question a few minutes before midnight on 20 January 1936, however, when King George V passed away. The next day, Hindemith worked from 11:00 A.M. – 5:00 P.M. composing Trauermusik [Music of Mourning] for solo viola and string orchestra as a tribute to the recently deceased King of England. Thus, the circumstances surrounding the compositional origin of this piece invite a discussion of mourning in both a historical and musical context. In this paper, I will touch on issues such as how mourning defines us as humans and how emotions associated with mourning can be represented in music and experienced by the listener. I will illustrate how mourning helps us to understand the meaning of Trauermusik when it was written and first performed in 1936, following the death of iv King George V.
