Juli – 15. Juli 2016, 9h05 – 10h00 Signet: SWR2 Musikstunde … mit Thomas Rübenacker. Heute: „Komponierende Dirigenten und dirigierende Komponisten“, Teil 5. MUSIK Diese Woche sprach ich über komponierende Dirigenten und dirigierende Komponisten, also auch über das Verhältnis zwischen Schöpfer und Interpret in einer Person. Heute, in der letzten Sendung zum Thema, will ich mich auf „komponierende Kapellmeister“ kaprizieren, weil es da noch so einiges aufzuarbeiten gibt – vieles wenig bis gar nicht Bekanntes, auch manch Skurriles oder gar Schräges. Wie ich bereits sagte, griffen die Komponisten häufig zum baton, um ihre Werke zu schützen – und um mit der Welt konfrontiert zu werden, nicht nur mit dem häuslichen Schreibtisch. -
ARSC Journal
A Discography of the Choral Symphony by J. F. Weber In previous issues of this Journal (XV:2-3; XVI:l-2), an effort was made to compile parts of a composer discography in depth rather than breadth. This one started in a similar vein with the realization that SO CDs of the Beethoven Ninth Symphony had been released (the total is now over 701). This should have been no surprise, for writers have stated that the playing time of the CD was designed to accommodate this work. After eighteen months' effort, a reasonably complete discography of the work has emerged. The wonder is that it took so long to collect a body of information (especially the full names of the vocalists) that had already been published in various places at various times. The Japanese discographers had made a good start, and some of their data would have been difficult to find otherwise, but quite a few corrections and additions have been made and some recording dates have been obtained that seem to have remained 1.Dlpublished so far. The first point to notice is that six versions of the Ninth didn't appear on the expected single CD. Bl:lhm (118) and Solti (96) exceeded the 75 minutes generally assumed (until recently) to be the maximum CD playing time, but Walter (37), Kegel (126), Mehta (127), and Thomas (130) were not so burdened and have been reissued on single CDs since the first CD release. On the other hand, the rather short Leibowitz (76), Toscanini (11), and Busch (25) versions have recently been issued with fillers. -

1440. Cavatine Backgrounds of S
1440. Cavatine Backgrounds Of S. Radic Joseph Joachim Raff (1822-1882) was a German composer and music teacher of Swiss origin who grew up in Lachen on the upper end of Lake Zurich. His father, the schoolmaster and music teacher Franz Josef Raff, had fled from forced recruitment to Switzerland in 1810, where he married Katharina Schmid, the daughter of the ox landlord, in Lachen in Canton Schwyz. In 1838 he moved to Schmerikon, then to Schwyz. His modest income as a schoolmaster did not allow him to provide his son Joachim with a comprehensive school education. Early on, the boy practiced playing the violin, piano and organ. When the papal nuncio needed an interpreter in an official matter, Joachim entered working life at the age of 18 In 1861 he won first prize with a prominent jury at the as his companion. He proved himself excellent and music competition of the Gesellschaft der became a teacher in Rapperswil in the same year.

Composers found ways to make their musical ideas represent people, things, and dramatic situations as well as emotional states and even philosophical ideas. 8 Art Forms Close relationship Literature among all the art Shakespeare forms Poe Bronte Composers drew Drama inspiration from other Schiller fine arts Hugo Art Goya Constable Delacroix 9 Nationalism and Exoticism Composers used music as a tool for highlighting national identity. Instrumental composers (such as Bedrich Smetana) made reference to folk music and national images Operatic composers (such as Giuseppe Verdi) set stories with strong patriotic undercurrents. Composers took an interest in the music of various ethnic groups and incorporated it into their own music. -

Schubert's Winterreise in Nineteenth-Century Concerts
Detours on a Winter’s Journey: Schubert’s Winterreise in Nineteenth-Century Concerts NATASHA LOGES Downloaded from http://online.ucpress.edu/jams/article-pdf/74/1/1/465161/jams_74_1_1.pdf by American Musicological Society Membership Access user on 03 June 2021 Introduction For a time Schubert’s mood became more gloomy and he seemed upset. When I asked him what was the matter he merely said to me “Well, you will soon hear it and understand.” One day he said to me “Come to Schober’s to-day, I will sing you a cycle of awe-inspiring songs. I am anxious to know what you will say about them. They have affected me more than has been the case with any other songs.” So, in a voice wrought with emotion, he sang the whole of the “Winterreise” through to us.1 In 1858, Schubert’s friend Josef von Spaun published a memoir of Schubert that included this recollection of the composer’s own performance of his Winterreise,D.911.Spaun’s poignant account is quoted in nearly every pro- gram and recording liner note for the work, and many assume that he meant all twenty-four songs in the cycle, roughly seventy-five uninterrupted minutes of music, presented to a rapt, silent audience—in other words, a standard, modern performance.2 Spaun’s emotive recollection raises many questions, however. The first concerns what Spaun meant by “the whole of the ‘Winter- reise,’” and this depends on the date of this performance, which cannot be established. As many scholars have observed, Schubert most likely sang only the twelve songs he had initially composed.3 Susan Youens recounts that the 1. -
