  • Fundamental Techniques in Viola Spaces of Garth Knox. (2016) Directed by Dr
    ÉRTZ, SIMON ISTVÁN, D.M.A. Beyond Extended Techniques: Fundamental Techniques in Viola Spaces of Garth Knox. (2016) Directed by Dr. Scott Rawls. 49 pp. Viola Spaces are often seen as interesting extra projects rather than valuable pedagogical tool that can be used to fill where other material falls short. These works can fill various gaps in the violist’s literature, both as pedagogical and performance works. Each of these works makes a valuable addition to the violist’s contemporary performance repertoire as a short, imaginative, and musically satisfying work and can be performed either individually or as part of a smaller set in a larger program (see Appendix A). They all also present interesting technical challenges that explore what are seen as extended techniques but can also be traced back to work on some of the fundamentals of viola technique. Etudes for viola are often limited to violin transcriptions mostly written in the eighteenth, nineteenth, or early twentieth centuries. Contemporary etudes written specifically for viola are valuable but are usually not as comprehensive or as suitable for performance etudes as are Viola Spaces. Few performance etudes cover the technical varieties that are presented in these works of Garth Knox. In this paper I will discuss the historical background of the viola and etudes written for viola. Many viola etudes written in the earlier history of the viola have not continued to be published; this study will also look at why some survived and others are no longer used. Compared to literature for the violin there are large gaps in the violists’ repertoire that Viola Spaces does much to fill; furthermore many violinists have asked for transcriptions of these works.

  • 103 CHAPTER V STRING SEXTET, OP. 47 in the Standard
    CHAPTER V STRING SEXTET, OP. 47 In the standard instrumentation of two violins, two violas, and two cellos, only a half-dozen works for string sextet, all from the Romantic tradition, enjoy a place in the standard repertoire today. These are: the two sextets of Johannes Brahms, op. 18 in B f and op. 36 in G; Dvorak’s Sextet in A, op. 48; and the program works of the Romantic era, Schoenberg’s Verklärte Nacht, Tchaikowsky’s Souvenir di Florence, and Richard Strauss’s Prelude to Capriccio. The efforts by Vincent d’Indy and Joseph Joachim Raff, as well as a handful of their lesser-known contemporaries, have fallen into obscurity. In the post-Romantic era, contributions to the genre have come from Frank Bridge, Erich Korngold, Bohuslav Martinu˚, Darius Milhaud, Walter Piston, Quincy Porter, and Max Reger, along with a few dozen works from lesser-known composers.1 Part of the reason for this sparsity of repertoire can be attributed to the overwhelming popularity of the string quartet, which since Haydn’s time has been the accepted proving ground for composers of chamber music. Another factor, in the post- 1 Margaret K. Farish, String Music in Print, 2nd ed. (New York, R.R.

A thesis submitted to the University of New South Wales in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy 2012 http://doi.org/10.4225/53/58bca28d2a79a THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname or Family name: Bangert First name: Daniel Other name/s: Abbreviation for degree as given in the University calendar: PhD School: Arts and Media Faculty: Arts and Social Sciences Title: Doing without thinking? Processes of decision-making in period instrument performance Abstract 350 words maximum: The performance of a musical work involves making many decisions about the notated score. This study explores the nature and role of intuitive and deliberate processes of musical decision-making in period instrument performance of solo Baroque string music. This research uses dual process theories of cognition as a conceptual framework to examine issues of Baroque performance practice and interpretation. A threefold approach to data collection was employed. In the first study, semi-structured interviews were conducted with leading Baroque violinists and cellists, focusing on the solo works of J.S. Bach. A high proportion of deliberate decision-making was found (60% overall) although this varied considerably between individuals. Performers described their interpretation of these pieces as being influenced by various factors and provided insights into how elements of the interpretative process such as intuition are experienced and defined. The participants in the second study were Baroque violinists of varying levels of expertise who were asked to sight-read, practise and perform a short piece of unfamiliar solo Baroque violin music.

    SONNTAG 11. OKTOBBER 2020 ST. URSULA FORUM ALTE MUSIK KÖLN SONNTAGSKONZERTE 17H m+k e.V. CHRISTOPHE COIN DAVIT MELKONYAN VIOLONCELLO „EUROPA-REISE MIT CELLO“ AUS DEM CONSERVATOIRE IN DIE WELT Ein Jahrhundert lang schon galt die Violine als das Instrument der Wahl für die Dar- stellung expressiver Melodien, rasanter Läufe und bizarrster Sprünge, da kam auch das Violoncello endlich zu Solo-Ehren. Zunächst waren es italienische Ausnahme- Musiker, die das virtuose Solospiel auf dem Violoncello um 1700 auch im Norden Euro- pas bekanntmachten. Im Laufe der nächsten Jahrzehnte übernahm da aber Frank- reich die Führung, das Land, in dem bislang die aristokratische Viola da gamba den Ton angegeben hatte. So mancher hervorragende Gambenspieler wechselte damals aufs Cello. Auf Verbindungen nach Frankreich – jetzt in die Klassen des nachrevolutionären Pariser Conservatoire – stoßen wir auch, wenn wir uns auf die Duo- und Solokom- positionen herausragender Cello-Virtuosen des 19. Jahrhunderts einlassen, die uns heute durch verschiedene europäische Musiklandschaften führen. Wir beginnen „vor der Haustür“. Bernhard Romberg, ge- boren in Dinklage, darf als eine der prägenden Gestalten unter den Cellisten dieser Zeit gelten. Er war ein Jugend- freund Ludwig van Beethovens – gemeinsam spielten sie in der kurkölnischen Hofkapelle in Bonn. Dann aber ent- wickelte sich Romberg zu einem der ersten reisenden Cello- virtuosen; seine Konzerttourneen führten ihn von Lissabon bis St. Petersburg und Moskau. Romberg unterrichtete von 1801 bis 1803 am Pariser Konservatorium und beeinflusste so die französische Celloschule. Vor allem aber war die deutsche Cellotradition durch ihn bestimmt: Er entwickel- te die Spieltechnik weiter und richtete das Instrument ent- sprechend ein. In seiner Violoncell-Schule, die 1839/40 er- schien, veranschaulicht er die Modifikationen an seinem Instrument in einer maßstabs- getreuen Zeichnung.

Program Notes Luigi Boccherini (1743 -1805) was roughly contemporary with Joseph Haydn and had a rather colorful life. Son of a professional double bass player, Luigi adopted the cello and was playing professionally by the age of thirteen. After four years in Rome, to complete his musical studies, he set off on a series of continental tours with a violinist colleague. In Paris, in 1768, he is said to have “created a sensation ” both for his playing and for his compositions – trios and quartets. He was persuaded to settle in Spain as a court musician, eventually for the Crown Prince, Don Luis. He married a Spanish girl and composed prolifically until his patron ’s death in 1785. His next employer was King Frederick William of Prussia but, when the latter died in 1797, he was left without income and returned to Spain. For a while he was supported by the French Ambassador, Lucien Bonaparte (the Emperor ’s brother), but when the latter was recalled in 1802, Boccherini was left to eke out a meager living rearranging his compositions to in- clude the guitar, then a fashionable instrument.
