PROGRAM NOTES Suite pour Trio d'Anches- Alexandre Tansman Program Notes by Nora Lewis With four movements arranged in a slow-fast-slow-fast sequence, Alexandre (1954) recalls Baroque conventions and features expansive contrapuntal lines underpinned by unconventional harmonies. This piece shares similar neo-Baroque elements with his Suite Baroque (1958), dedicated to Queen Elizabeth, with whom Tansman had played duets decades earlier. The light and quirky character of the Twentieth-Century French style is quality. In many of his works Tansman draws on Polish folk melodies, Mazurka rhythms, and genres such as Polonaise and Nocturne. Scholars also cite the influence of the Polish scale, with pervasive emphasis on the fourth scale degree in melodic and particularly harmonic contexts.

  • Robert Schumann on the Poems of Heinrich Heine
    DICHTERLIEBE opus 48 A Cycle of Sixteen. Songs by Robert Schumann on the poems of Heinrich Heine An Honors Thesis (Honrs 499) by Shawn L. Harrington Thesis Advisor (u,r$/ Mr. John Meadows", . " (! jl'lrli{Lul ~t;(,cY\' Ball State University Muncie, Indiana November, 1995 Expected date of graduation 12/95 !J,:'( ! __ <l !.", .,.' , j:L. ' .. " Purpose of Thesis This project has two components: a written discussion of the music of the Dichterliebe, and the lives of the composer Robert Schumann and the poet Heinrich Heine; and an audio tape of my performance of the Dichterliebe. The performance was the culmination of my study of the Dichterliebe, in particular, and of my voice studies, in general. Through the performance, I set out to share the wonderful music and poetry of the Dichterliebe as well as share my musical and vocal growth over the past four years. The written portion of the project was undertaken to satisfy my personal curiosity of the men who wrote the music and the poetry of the Dichterliebe. A study of the music without knowing the man who composed it or the man who wrote the words would be only half complete at best. Likewise, a study of the men and not the music would also be incomplete. That is why I included both venues of learning and experiencing in this project; and that is why I have included an audio tape of the performance with this written report. Acknowledgements I would like to thank my voice instructor (and thesis advisor), John Meadows. Without his expertise, advise, and instruction, I would not have been able to present the Dichterliebe in a performance.

  • Spohr and Schumann
    SPOHR AND SCHUMANN by Keith Warsop OR MOST PEOPLE the link between Louis Spohr and Robert Schumann is limited to the latter's negative criticism of the Historrcai Symphony. In fact, the two musicians had a high regard for each other's compositions even though they each sometimes had reservations about particular aspects of certain individual works. Unfortunately, Spohr broke off his memoirs when he reached June 1838 shortly before he and Schumann met for the first time so we do not have his considered thoughts about Schumann's music in general. However, in the section of the memoirs added by his second wife, Marianne, after Spohr's death, she records that after the stay in Carlsbad detailed by Spohr in the last paragraphs he wrote down himself, they stopped in Leipzig on their way home. There, Marianne continues, "it was a source of great pleasure to him to make the long-desired acquaintance of Robert Schumann who, though in other respects exceedingly quiet and reserved, yet evinced his admiration of Spohr with great warmth and gratified him by the performanee of several of his interesting fantasias. " The two composers had, however, been in touch a few months before through the agency of a third composer, Felix Mendelssohn. On 24th November 1836, Mendelssohn wrote to Spohr requesting a song for inclusion in the wedding album of his new bride, Cdcilie Jeanrenaud, and on l3th December wrote again to thank Spohr for the song 'Was mir wohl tibrig bliebe', WoO96 (later included by Spohr as No.5 of his Op.139 Lieder collection).

  • A Dichterliebe by Robert Schumann
    ,A DICHTERLIEBE BY ROBERT SCHUMANN THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State College in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF MUSIC By Hubert Neil Davidson, B. M. Denton, Texas August, 1957 PREFACE The purpose of this work, an analysis of the song cycle Dichterliebe (Op. 1+8) by Robert Schumann, is to recognize the special features of the songs which will contribute to their understanding and musical interpretation and perform- ance. The Dichterliebe was chosen as the composition to be analyzed because of its prominent position in the vocal lit.- erature of the Romantic period. An acquaintance with the life of the poet, Heinrich Heine, as well as the life of the composer of these songs and their relationship to each other contributes toward an understanding of the cycle. Each of the sixteen songs in the cycle is analyzed according to its most important characteristics, including text setting, general harmonic structure, important role of the accompaniment, expressive techniques, mood, tempo, rhythm, and dynamics. It is not the aim of this work to offer an extensive formal or harmonic analysis of this song cycle. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page PREFACE . iii LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS.... ..... .v Chapter I.

  • Nuveen Investments Emerging Artist Violinist Julia Fischer Joins the Cso and Riccardo Muti for June Subscription Concerts at Symphony Center
    For Immediate Release: Press Contacts: June 13, 2016 Eileen Chambers, 312-294-3092 Photos Available By Request [email protected] NUVEEN INVESTMENTS EMERGING ARTIST VIOLINIST JULIA FISCHER JOINS THE CSO AND RICCARDO MUTI FOR JUNE SUBSCRIPTION CONCERTS AT SYMPHONY CENTER June 16 – 21, 2016 CHICAGO—Internationally acclaimed violinist Julia Fischer returns to Symphony Center for subscription concerts with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra (CSO) led by Music Director Riccardo Muti on Thursday, June 16, at 8 p.m., Friday, June 17, at 1:30 p.m., Saturday, June 18, at 8 p.m., and Tuesday, June 21, at 7:30 p.m. The program features Brahms’ Serenade No. 1 and Beethoven’s Violin Concerto in D Major with Fischer as soloist. Fischer’s CSO appearances in June are endowed in part by the Nuveen Investments Emerging Artist Fund, which is committed to nurturing the next generation of great classical music artists. Julia Fischer joins Muti and the CSO for Beethoven’s Violin Concerto. Widely recognized as the first “Romantic” concerto, Beethoven’s lush and virtuosic writing in the work opened the traditional form to new possibilities for the composers who would follow him. The second half of the program features Brahms’ Serenade No. 1. Originally composed as chamber music, Brahms later adapted the work for full orchestra, offering a preview of the rich compositional style that would emerge in his four symphonies. The six-movement serenade is filled with lyrical wind and string passages, as well as exuberant writing in the allegro and scherzo movements. German violinist Julia Fischer won the Yehudi Menuhin International Violin Competition at just 11, launching her career as a solo and orchestral violinist.

This is especially true when the performance is done by brilliant musicians. The European Broadcasting Union’s Eurovision Young Musicians is an impressive event, in the best sense of the word. It is not any old talent show, to be quickly forgotten. No, this competition provides a spring- board for talented young solo performers of classical music to enter the international scene. I am delighted that this year’s Eurovision Young Musicians is held in Cologne, a city known for its enthusiastic audienc- es and home to renowned symphony and chamber orches- tras as well as the University of Music and Dance. For one week, musical artists from 14 countries are demon- strating their technical brilliance and artistic flair. And they are well motivated: many international celebrity artists started out at the Eurovision Young Musician, the final in Cologne’s central Roncalliplatz square will be broadcast live to a European audience and the winner will be given the op- portunity to perform with the Vienna Philharmonic. Now, if that is not an incentive, I don’t know what is.
