Allegro con brio BALDWIN PIANO RCA VICTOR RECORDS [5] SYMPHONY IN B-FLAT MAJOR, No. 98 By Joseph Haydn Born in Rohrau, Austria, March 31, 1732; died in Vienna, May 31, 1809 Haydn composed this symphony in 1791, for London, where it was first performed at the Hanover Square Rooms March 2, 1792. It is the fourth of the London Series. This symphony had a performance at the concerts of the Boston Symphony Orches- tra, December 15-16, 1905, Wilhelm Gericke conducting, and a second on April 23, 1948. The symphony is scored for 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 bassoons, 2 horns, 2 trumpets, timpani and strings. npHis symphony was the fourth in the first of two series of six, each "'- composed by Haydn for Johann Peter Salomon for his concerts in London between 1791 and 1795. Haydn presided, according to custom, at the harpsichord and afterwards noted in his diary: "The first and last Allegros were encort [5/c]." A review of a later performance in the Morning Chronicle is indication that this work was singled out for special favor: "Every instrument is respected by his Muse, for he gives to each his due proportion of efficacy. He does not elevate one and make all the rest contributory as a mere accompaniment, but the subject is taken up by turns with masterly art, and every performer has the means of displaying his talent." There is a fifteen-bar introduction by the strings. Adagio, opening in a grave and portentous B-flat minor. The theme of this introduc- tion turns out to be the theme of the main A llegro much accelerated — a twist of invention by which the first audiences were no doubt as surprised as they were intended to be. The practice was to become common among the later Romantics, but there was a difference. C^sar Franck was to practice diminution of the opening theme of his sym- phony with the result of sudden dramatic tension. Haydn transformed solemnity into gayety in B-flat major. The composer duly establishes the dominant tonality but no distinct second subject emerges. The development is highly expert, adroit in counterpoint. Tovey has remarked in connection with this symphony that Haydn, for all his scholarly knowledge, was like Verdi, a man well equipped by experi- ence: "In saying that Haydn was not only an experienced but a learned composer, I have especially in mind the style and forms of this sym- phony. The Haydnesque animal spirits are moderated though not suppressed in the first movement by highly intellectual themes devel- oped in ways which, though not actually more thoughtful, seem more learned than usual." According to this writer, "The slow movement [6] is one of Haydn's broadest and gravest utterances. It might be called his requiem for Mozart, the news of whose death had so deeply shocked him during his London visit." Both Tovey and Geiringer find marked Mozart resemblances in this symphony, and the former discerns in the second theme of the slow movement a "reminiscence" from the slow movement of Mozart's "Jupiter" Symphony (but he would have had considerable difficulty in proving that Haydn had ever seen that score — he certainly never heard it). The Minuet is as Haydnesque as you could find, with a rippling Trio where the flutes, oboes and bassoons are matched with the strings. The Finale, in 6-8 time, is one of Haydn's most whimsical. In the development a solo violin toys with the second theme, so pivoting the discourse into contrasting tutti passages. The coda slows the tempo of the main theme to moderato, but builds a climax with scale passages in turbulent sixteenths for the full orchestra.

Stravinsky composed his ballet "The Card Game" between the summer of 1936 and the end of the year. The piece was performed by the American Ballet (for which it was composed) on April 27 of 1937, at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York. George Balanchine was in charge of the choreography; Mr. Stravinsky conducted. The ballet as a concert piece (which uses the score unaltered) was presented by the Philadelphia Orchestra, Eugene Ormandy conducting, January 14, 1938. It was first heard in Boston when Stravinsky conducted the Boston Symphony Orchestra, December 1, 1939, repeated, again under the composer's direc- tion, January 14, 1944, and under the direction of Charles Munch on January 27, 1950, under Guido Cantelli, January 30, 1953, Charles Munch, November 9, 1956. The orchestration of the suite is as follows: 2 flutes and piccolo, 2 oboes and English horn, 2 clarinets, 2 bassoons, 4 horns, 2 trumpets, 3 trombones and tuba, timpani, bass drum, and strings. TTTHEN Stravinsky was asked by Mr. Warburg for a new piece to '^'^ be presented by the American Ballet, he had already contem- plated a ballet with an interplay of numerical combinations, with "Chiffres dansants** not unlike Schumann's "Lettres dansantes." The action was to be implicit in the music. One of the characters would be a malignant force whose ultimate defeat would impart a moral conclusion to the whole. The ballet, as it was at last worked out, presented an enormous card table, the cards of the pack represented by individual dancers. The shuffling and dealing made a ceremonial introduction to each of the three deals. According to the mis-en-scene, at the end of each play, giant fingers, which might have been those of invisible croupiers, removed the cards. The following summary is that of the composer: "The characters in this ballet are the cards in a game of poker, dis- puted between several players on the green baize table of a gaming house. At each deal the situation is complicated by the endless guiles of the perfidious Joker, who believes himself invincible because of his ability to become any desired card. "During the first deal, one of the players is beaten, but the other two remain with even 'straights,' although one of them holds the Joker. "In the second deal, the hand which holds the Joker is victorious, thanks to four Aces who easily beat four Queens.

PROGRAM Le tombeau de Couperin Maurice Ravel Prelude Forlane Menuet Rigaudon Ostensibly this music represents neoclassic expression in its purest distillate. And it was, indeed, conceived as a pianistic idealization of the clavecin aesthetic exemplified by Francois Couperin le Crand. But that was in the fateful summer of 1914, and even Ravel's sleepy St. Jean-de-Luz was traumatized by the news of Archduke Francis Ferdinand's assassination at Sarajevo. France mobilized overnight, and by August was at war. By then the sketches for Le tombeau de Couperin were in a desk drawer. When he returned to them three wretched years later the composer was a very different man, broken in health and shattered emotionally by the loss of his mother, who had died barely a week after his medical discharge. Thus it was that the six movements became as many 'tomb- stones' (each one inscribed separately) for friends and regimental comrads who had been killed on the Western Front. As a work for solo piano—Ravel's last, incidentally—Le tombeau was not a notable success. Strictly speaking it could not have been because it marked a stylistic retrogression after the harmonic leaps forward in the Valse nobles et sentimentales and Gas-pard de la nuit. But fortu- nately that was not the end of the matter.

  • Ronald Roseman: a Biographical Description and Study of His Teaching Methodology
    LAMPIDIS, ANNA, D.M.A. Ronald Roseman: A Biographical Description and Study of his Teaching Methodology. (2008) Directed by Dr. Mary Ashley Barret. 103 pp. Ronald Roseman was an internationally acclaimed oboe soloist, chamber musician, teacher, recording artist, and composer whose career spanned over 40 years. A renowned oboist, he performed in some of America’s most influential institutions and ensembles including the New York Woodwind Quintet, the New York Philharmonic, and the New York Bach Aria Group. His contributions to 20th Century oboe pedagogy through his own unique teaching methodology enabled him to contribute to the success of both his own personal students and many others in the field of oboe and woodwind performance. His body of compositions that include oboe as well as other instruments and voice serve to encapsulate his career as a noteworthy 20th Century composer. Roseman’s musicianship and unique teaching style continues to be admired and respected worldwide by oboists and musicians. The purpose of this study is to present a biographical overview and pedagogical techniques of oboist Ronald Roseman. This study will be divided into sections about his early life, teaching career, performance career and his pedagogical influence upon his students. Exercises and techniques developed by Roseman for the enhancement of oboe pedagogy will also be included. Interviews have been conducted with his wife and three former well-known students in order to better serve the focus of this study. The author also contributed pedagogical techniques compiled during a two-year period of study with Roseman. Appendices include a discography of recorded materials, the New York Woodwind Quintet works list, Roseman’s published article on Baroque Ornamentation, a list of his compositions with premiere dates and performers, and interview questions.
