New York Represented in Cincinnati by THE BEINKAMP PIANO CO M 132 West Fourth Street Overture to the Opera "Oberon" . Carl Maria von Weber (Born at Eutin, Oldenburg, December 1 8, 1786; died at London, June 5, 1826.) "Oberon; or, the Elf-king's Oath," a romantic opera in three acts, book by James Robinson Planche, music by Carl Maria von Weber, was first performed at Covent Garden, London, on April 12, 1826. Weber conducted the performance. Weber was asked by Charles Kemble in 1824 to write an opera for Covent Garden. A sick and discouraged man, he buckled himself to the task of learning English, that he might know the exact meaning of the text. He therefore took one hundred and fifty-three lessons of an Englishman named Carey, and studied diligently, anxiously. Planche sent the libretto an act at a time. Weber made his first sketch on January 23, 1825. The autograph score contains this note at the end of the overture: "Finished April 9, 1826, in the morning, at a quarter of twelve, and with it the whole opera. Soli Deo Gloria/!! C. M. V. Weber." This entry was made at London. The story was founded by Planche on Wieland's " Oberon, " which in turn was derived from an old French romance, " Huon de Bordeaux." Although Weber in London was so feeble that he could scarcely stand without support, he was busy at rehearsal, and directed the performance at the pianoforte." According to Parke, the first oboist of Covent Garden, "the music of this opera is a refined, scientific, and characteristic composition, and the overture is an ingenious and masterly production. It was loudly encored. This opera, however, did not become as popular as that of 'Der Freischutz.'" Weber died of consumption about two months after his last and great success. The overture is scored for two flutes, two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons, four horns, two trumpets, three trombones, kettledrums, strings. The overture begins with an introduction (Adagio sostenuto LATEST SONG CYCLES Three Indian Songs, by Herbert Bath Dorothy's Wedding Day. Song for Three Baritone Songs, by Edward German four solo voices Four Songs from the Garden of Kama, by A Lover in Damascus, by Amy Woodfordt- Alma Goetz Finden Six Characteristic Songs, by Joseph Hol- On Jhelum River.

Vaughan Williams ald BOOSEY & COMPANY, 9 East 17th Street, New York Gt« ; 7 ed il tutto pianissimo possibile, D major, 4-4). The horn of Oberon is answered by muted strings. The, figure for flutes and clarinets is taken from the first scene of the opera (Oberon's palace ; introduction and chorus of elfs). After a pianissimo little march there is a short dreamy passage for strings, which ends in the violas. There is a full orchestral crashing chord, and the main body of the overture begins (Allegro con fuoco in D major, 4-4). The brilliant opening measures are taken from the accompaniment figure of the quartet, "Over the dark blue waters," sung by Rezia, Fatime, Huon, Scherasmin (act ii., scene x.). The horn of Oberon is heard again; it is answered by the skipping fairy figure. The second theme (A major, sung first by the clarinet, then by the first violins) is taken from the first measures of the second part of Huon's air (act i., No. 5). And then a theme taken from the peroration, presto con fuoco of Rezia's air, "Ocean! Thou mighty monster" (act ii., No. 13), is given as a conclusion to the violins. This theme ends the first part of the overture. The free fantasia begins with soft repeated chords in bassoons, horns, drums, basses. The first theme is worked out in short periods; a new theme is introduced and treated in fugato against a running contrapuntal counter-theme in the strings. The second theme is treated, but not elaborately; and then the Rezia motive brings the spirited end. At the first performance of the opera the overture was repeated. It may here be said that "a new version" of "Oberon," with the Used and recommended by over 350 leading American Educational Institutions, Ivers & Pond Pianos represent the highest standard ever attained in artistic piano building.

    Sibelius in the Context of the Finnish-German History Veijo Murtomäki Introduction The life and career of a composer cannot be considered as an isolated case without taking into account the wider context. The history of ideas and ideologies is always part of any serious enquiry into an artist’s personal history. Therefore we must bear in mind at least four points when considering the actions of artist and his or her country. Firstly, as the eminent Finnish historian Matti Klinge has observed, "the biggest challenge for understanding history is trying to situate oneself in the preconditions of the time-period under scrutiny while remembering that it did not know what the posterity knows."[1] Writing history is not primarily a task whereby the historian provides lines for actors to speak, but rather is an attempt to understand and explain why something happened, and to construct a context including all of the possible factors involved in a certain historical process. Secondly, supporting (or not opposing) an ideology prevailing at a certain time does not mean that the supporter (or non-opponent) is committing a crime. We could easily condemn half of the European intellectuals for supporting Fascism, Nazism, Communism or Maoism, or just for having become too easily attracted by these – in their mind – fascinating, visionary ideologies to shape European or world history. Thirdly, history has always been written by the winners – and thus, historiography tends to be distorted by exaggerating the evil of the enemy and the goodness of the victor. A moral verdict must be reached when we are dealing with absolute evil, but it is rare to find exclusively good or bad persons or civilizations; therefore history is rarely an issue of black and white.

Tiesin etukäteen Ojanperän olleen kanttori ja laulunopettaja. Kiinnostuin aiheesta, kun kotikunnallani järjestettiin suuri oopperaprojekti, Abrahamin pidot. Aihe on alkanut kiinnostamaan minua yhä enemmän, kun olen saanut selville tietoja Abraham Ojanperästä. Kerron ensin Ojanperän eri elämänvaiheista, hänen opiskelustaan ja urasta musiikin parissa kanttorina ja laulunopettajana. Sen jälkeen tutkin Ojanperän yhteyksiä aikansa säveltäjiin ja muihin muusikkoihin, erityisesti kirkkomuusikoihin. Etsin myös tietoa Ojanperän lauluoppilaista. Tutkin työssäni, onko Ojanperä myötävaikuttanut suomalaisen, suomenkielisen kirkkomusiikin syntymiseen tai julkaisemiseen, ja minkälaisia vaikutuksia suomalaiseen musiikkikulttuuriin hänellä on ollut. Työssäni käytän lähteenä Anna-Maija Näsäsen kirjoittamaa teosta Abraham Ojanperä, laulajan elämä, Iikka Niemelän lukuisia kirjoituksia Ojanperän elämään liittyen sekä erilaisia lehtiartikkeleita ja muita lyhyempiä tekstejä, jotka löysin Limingan kirjaston arkistokansiosta. Ojanperästä on kirjoitettu melko vähän. Sibelius-Akatemiassa

In fact, his single-movement Seventh Symphony Op. 105 (1924) and the tone poem Tapiola Op. 112 (1926) demonstrate just how close these two genres came to merging in his output. Tone poems linked Sibelius to the radical Romantic composers of the 19th century: programme music allowed composers to expand their musical idiom and to break out of the bounds of formal structures.

He was also a rather minor composer, but he was perspicacious enough to recognize true genius when he saw it. Thus he became Jean Sibelius’s first music publisher and one of his first true supporters, as well as taking part as a viola player in several Sibelius pre- mières. Karl Fredrik’s son, Carl-Johan, was solo cellist in the Helsinki Philhar - monic Orchestra and himself participated in many performances of Sibelius’s music, both orchestral and chamber. Carl-Johan’s daughter Margaretha is known as a prima ballerina assoluta at the Finnish Opera, and mine is the honour to be her son. Basically, since I started BIS in 1973, I have had a dream to record ‘every-note- he-ever-wrote’ by Sibelius, but not before I met Andrew Barnett, one of today’s great Sibe lius cognoscenti, did any firm plan materialize. True, the recording of the complete piano music had been started, as had that of the symphonies, but Andrew injected plan ning and system into the project. Great help was also received from the legendary Sibelius biographer Erik Tawaststjerna, as well as from the doyen of present-day Sibe lius scholars Fabian Dahlström. The project was not an easy one.

The first building dedicated to Kungliga Musikaliska Akademien was inaugurated in 1878 at Nybrokajen 11 and is nowadays a conference and concert venue. When we met 2013 in Brisbane this new Ann-Christine Wilund, Colosseum of music was just an utopia, but luckily for President av SSTPF/VoTS us it was ready just in time for ICVT! We think you will find this state-of-the art college is a perfect place to listen, learn, exchange knowledge and make new friends from around the world. 2017 is a jubilee year not only for ICVT, which started in Strasbourg 1987, but for Swedish musical figures such as the founder of the Drottningholm Court Theatre, King Gustav III, the poet and composer Carl Michael Bellman and the com- poser and author Wilhelm Peterson-Berger. Stockholm 2017 also celebrates 75 years of its “Parkteatern”– summer theatre in the city’s Parks.

Justement on ne sait jamais à quoi employer cette journée-là : pas de visites à faire, pas de marrons glacés à recevoir, pas de polichinelles à mettre dans le tiroir des fillettes sages, pas d'écheveaux de souhaits à débrouiller, rienî Grâce au gendre immortel de l'immortel Patron, nous avons eu de quoi occuper cette après-midi dominicale. Et quel joli temps pour se rendre au Cirque en ba­ teau ! A propos de bateau je vous redirais bien que Ghevillard nous sert des programmes où l'inédit ne foisonne pas (Beethoven, Wagner et même Jannequin sont de petits jeunes gens qui ont déjà fait leurs preuves), mais à quoi bon rabâ­ cher ? Les chefs d'orchestre ne m'écouteront pas plus aujourd'hui qu'hier, demain qu'aujourd'hui.
