I see my music now as a synthesis of these elements, combined with what I learned from Grisey and the spectralists, and I detect from Kraft to my latest pieces the same underlying tastes and sense of drama.” – Magnus Lindberg The shift in musical thinking that Magnus Lindberg thus described in December 2012, a few weeks before the premiere of Era, was utter and profound. Lindberg’s composer profile has evolved from his early edgy modernism, “carved in stone” to use his own words, to the softer and more sonorous idiom that he has embraced recently, suggesting a spiritual kinship with late Romanticism and the great masters of the early 20th century. On the other hand, in the same comment Lindberg also mentioned features that have remained constant in his music, including his penchant for drama going back to the early defiantly modernistKraft (1985).

FIN DU CONCERT VERS 23H. Un chemin tout d’abord : Helsinki, Darmstadt, Sienne puis Paris. Des rencontres ensuite : Einojuhani Rautavaara, Paavo Heininen et Osmo Lindeman, Helmut Lachenmann, Brian Ferneyhough, Franco Donatoni, Vinko Globokar et Gérard Grisey. Sous le signe de l’ouverture, la forma- tion de Magnus Lindberg s’est poursuivie dans un fascinant éclectisme intellectuel et esthétique jusqu’à confronter les héritages nationaux à la scène actuelle du pop-rock ou du métal. Et le compositeur de se souvenir : « Tous ces pôles d’attraction, assez éloignés, ont constitué une somme d’influences assez heureuses. Et je recherchai cette diver- sité de références comme autant de langage, car à cette époque, d’un point de vue stylistique, je n’avais pas de véritable inquiétude, je savais exactement ce que je voulais. Ce qui n’a pas toujours été le cas par la suite. » (Entretien avec Peter Szendy, « Magnus Lindberg », Les Cahiers de l’Ircam 3, 1993.) Si un Grand soir ne peut synthétiser un tel parcours en un unique concert, ne peut-il replacer l’artiste dans le contexte sonore qui l’a vu naître ? Version révisée d’une pièce destinée à un concours de direction d’orchestre, Arena 2 est un parfait exemple d’orchestration aux extra- ordinaires effets kaléidoscopiques de Magnus Lindberg.

In the second half of the 20th century it seemed that composers wrote one definitive concerto for an instrument and then moved on, but if you look further back, composers like Bartók and Prokofiev were happy to return and come up with new solutions for the same instrument. I’m with them because I’m particularly drawn to the great instruments such as piano, violin and cello – I’m not interested in ending up having to write concertos for exotica such as theremin. I’ve also had healthy gaps between my concertos to allow thinking time: 20 years between my two piano concertos, 15 between those for cello, and about 10 years will separate the violin concertos.” Thus spoke Magnus Lindberg around the time of the premiere of his Second Violin Concerto in late 2015. He had gone through a quick replay, so to speak, of his earlier concerto cycle in the preceding years: his earlier concertos for piano (1994), cello (1999) and violin (2006) each gained a successor in fairly rapid succession with the Second Piano Concerto (2012), the Second Cello Concerto (2013) and the Second Violin Concerto (2015).

  • Magnus Lindberg – Musiikillinen Ele Ja Dramaturgia Aurassa Ja Sinfonisessa Triptyykissä
    Magnus Lindberg – musiikillinen ele ja dramaturgia Aurassa ja sinfonisessa triptyykissä Takemi Sosa Magnus Lindberg on nykyään yksi maineikkaimmista suomalaisista nykysävel- täjistä; itse asiassa hän on kansainvälisesti tärkeimpiä suomalaisia säveltäjiä Si- beliuksen jälkeen.1 Hänen orkesteriteoksiaan on pidetty erittäin merkittävinä sekä suomalaisessa että länsimaisen nykytaidemusiikin historiassa. Lindberg on saanut tunnustusta työstään lukuisten palkintojen kautta, ja hänen teoksiaan on esitetty maailmanlaajuisesti useilla musiikkifestivaaleilla. Maailman tunnetuim- mat orkesterit ovat tilanneet häneltä teoksia. Tästä huolimatta Lindbergiä on tutkittu tieteellisellä tasolla erittäin vähän, ja ennen kaikkea hänen estetiikkaan- sa ja sävellystekniikkaansa ei ole tieteellisesti vielä hyvin kartoitettu. Tämän tutkimuksen lähtökohtana oli yksinkertainen kysymys: Lindbergin musiikki vaikuttaa dramaattiselta, vaikka post-tonaalisuuteen perustuva harmonian rakenne, musiikillinen pinta ja äänten kudos ovatkin paikoitellen hyvin kompleksisia. Miksi se vaikuttaa dramaattiselta? Onko dramaattisuus orkestraatiosta vai musiikin rakenteesta johtuvaa? Toisena kysymyksenä puoles- taan oli: miksi tämä musiikki kuulostaa myös todella dynaamiselta. Millä tavoin sävellyksen rakenteelliset tekijät – usein staattisiksi ymmärretyt tekijät – luovat musiikillista prosessia ja teoksen dynaamista luonnetta? Melkein neljäkymmentä vuotta kestäneen kansainvälisen uransa aikana Lindberg on jatkuvasti uudistanut sävellystyyliään ja esteettistä näkemystään. Väitöskirjani

  • Narratiivinen Tila Ja Temporakennelma Magnus Lindbergin Teoksessa Parada
    69 Narratiivinen tila ja temporakennelma Magnus Lindbergin teoksessa Parada Takemi Sosa Triptyykin kolmas teos ja tutkimusongelma Jo yli kolmekymmentä vuotta kansainvälistä uraa tehnyt nykysäveltäjä Magnus Lindberg (syntynyt 1958) on jatkuvasti uudistanut sävellystyyliään ja esteettis- tä näkemystään. Läpimurtoteoksensa Kraftin (1985) jälkeen hänen orkesterite- oksissaan voidaan silti kuulla hänelle tyypillinen, selkeä, nopea sekä energi- nen karaktääri, jota voidaan kutsua ”lindbergiaaniseksi soundiksi”. Tutkijoita askarruttaa tietysti mikä on se säveltäjän ”käsiala”, jonka kuulijat tunnistavat. Varsinkin kun kysymys on nykysäveltäjän taideteoksista, tyyliin liittyvät seikat ovat erityisen kiinnostavia. Lindbergiaanisen soundin muodostaviin seikkoihin kuuluu monia tekijöitä: yksi näistä on Lindbergin viimeaikaisissa orkesteriteok- sissa kuultava vivahteikas sointiväripaletti, joka on syntynyt hyvin suunnitellun, nopeasti vaihtelevan ja läpikuultavan orkestraation tuloksena. Tämä on myös tutkimuskohteena mielenkiitoinen. Lindbergin pitkän uran aikana hioutunut soitinnustaito on muutoinkin koko hänen tuotantonsa kannalta merkittävä piir- re1, sillä hänen sävellystuotantonsa keskittyy pääasiallisesti orkesterimusiikkiin. Lindberg (tekijän haastattelu 2008) toteaa, että hän joutuu korjaamaan kappa- leidensa soitinnukset erikseen ennen jokaista esitystä esitystilojen erilaisuuden vuoksi. Tässä suhteessa Lindberg muistuttaa ehkä Gustav Mahleria, jolla oli ta- pana korjata sinfonioitansa vielä esitystilanteessa. Orkestraation lisäksi toinen

  • A Bibliography of Writings About Historic Brass Instruments, 1988-89
    190 HISTORIC BRASS SOCIETY JOURNAL A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF WRITINGS ABOUT HISTORIC BRASS INSTRUMENTS, 1988-89 David Lasocki his bibliography is the first in what I intend to be an annual series listing recent writings about historic brass instruments. Itcovers brass instruments through the T19th century, and their depiction in works of art, makers, making, original performance situations, performers, performance practices and repertory. Interviews with modem performers of historic brass instruments are also included, but reports on conferences and workshops are excluded unless they contain significant historical information. This fist bibliography, covering those items from 1988 and 1989 that had reached me by late May, 1990, takes up roughly where theFasman bibliography (cited below) leaves off. I would be grateful if readers could send me any relevant items I may have overlooked. The next installment will includeany extra items for 1988-89 plusmost items for 1990. The items listed comprise books, theses and dissertations,and periodical articles in Western European languages. All the books and articles are published; unpublished items and works-in-progress have been excluded (the Kohlenberg article cited below does list such material). For the sake of completeness, the articles that have appeared in Historic Brass Society Journal and Historic BrassSociety Newsletter are included, even though they should already be familiar to readers. The bibliographic information about theses and dissertations-exccpt forFasman7s,which was writtenat theuniversity where I work - was taken from the database Dissertation Abstracts International on Dialog. For the most part the bibliography is not annotated, although here and there I have added brief descriptive annotations to clarify the contents (when they are not obvious from the title), scope or bibliographic linkages of an item.
