PAUL HINDEMITH (1895-1963) in the Later Years of His Life Paul Hindemith Had Become a Somewhat Neglected Figure
TEMPO A QUARTERLY REVIEW OF MODERN MUSIC Edited by Colin Mason © 1964 by Boosey & Hawkes Music Publishers Ltd. PAUL HINDEMITH (1895-1963) In the later years of his life Paul Hindemith had become a somewhat neglected figure. Once ranked with Stravinsky and Bartok among the most stimulating experimenters of the 1920s, he later began to lose his hold on the public, and his influence on younger composers declined, especially after 1945, when serialism started to spread widely, leaving him very much isolated in his hostility to it. Now that that issue no longer greatly agitates the musical world, it is becom- ing possible to assess more clearly the importance and individuality of his con- tribution to 20th-century music. An obvious comparison is with his compatriot of a generation earlier, Max Reger, who was similarly prolific, and in his early days was reckoned daring, but whose work later revealed an academic streak. In Hindemith one might call it rather an intellectual, rational and philosophical streak, not fatal but injurious to the spontaneous play of his musical imagination. As early as 193 1 he wrote an oratorio Das Unaufhorliche, to a text by Gottfried Benn which mocks at human illusions of what is enduring, including (besides learning, science, religion and love) art. Hindemith's choice of such a subject seems to have been symptomatic of some scepticism on his own part about art, and although his innate creative musical genius could not be repressed, it was made to struggle for survival against the theoretical restraints that he insisted on imposing upon it. -

David Levi Dirigent
David Levi Dirigent Der in New York aufgewachsene David Levi absolvierte zunächst ein Psychologiestudium an der Harvard University, bevor er Klavier, Dirigieren, Kammermusik und Liedbegleitung an der Manhattan School of Music studierte. 1993 kam David Levi als Assistent von James Conlon an die Oper Köln, wo er u. a. die Neuproduktionen von Dimitri Schostakowitschs Oper „Die Nase“ (Regie: Harry Kupfer) und Stephen Sondheims „Sweeney Todd“ (Regie: Proscenium Artists Management GmbH - Rudolfsplatz 12/8 - A - 1010 Wien Tel:+43 1 9684422 - offi[email protected] - Seite 1 von 4 - Torsten Fischer) leitete. Darüber hinaus dirigierte er Berlioz’„La Damnation de Faust“, „Elektra“ mit Gabriele Schnaut, „Eugen Onegin“, „Otello“, „Hänsel und Gretel“, „Die Zauberflöte“, sowie „La Traviata“. Gemeinsam mit der Regisseurin Corina van Eijk rief David Levi 1989 das Spanga Opera Festival in den Niederlanden ins Leben. Hier dirigierte er u. a. „L’elisir d’amore“, „Rigoletto“, „Les contes d’Hoffmann“, „The Rake’s Progress“ „Ariadne auf Naxos“, „Samson et Dalila“, „Falstaff“, „Aida“ und Puccinis „Trittico“. 2008 erarbeitete er beim Spanga Opera Festival „Donna Giovanna“, ein bei Kritik und Publikum überaus erfolgreiches Projekt über „Don Giovanni“, außerdem im Jahr 2009 Strauss’ „Elektra“ mit einem Orchester von 34 Musikern und im Jahr 2010 seine Version von „Carmen“. David Levi hatte auch die musikalische Leitung der beiden Opern-Filme „Rigoletto“ und „Samson und Dalila“ inne, die von Opera Spanga produziert wurden. Außerdem dirigierte er bei David Moreaus Filmmusik für „Une Vie à t’attendre“ und „Le Héros de la Famille“. Für letzteren war er auch der Gesangslehrer von Emmanuelle Béart und Cathérine Deneuve. An der Metropolitan Opera New York arbeitete er in 1996 als Assistent von James Levine.
