  • Calmus-Washington-Post Review April 2013.Pdf
    to discover, nurture & promote young musicians Press: Calmus April 21, 2013 At Strathmore, Calmus Ensemble is stunning in its vocal variety, mastery By Robert Battey Last week, two of Germany’s best musical ensembles — one very large, one very small — visited our area. After the resplendence of the Dresden Staatskapelle on Tuesday at Strathmore, we were treated on Friday to an equally impressive display of precise, polished musicianship by the Calmus Ensemble, an a cappella vocal quintet from Leipzig. Founded in 1999 by students at the St. Thomas Church choir school (which used to be run by a fellow named Bach), Calmus presented a program both narrow and wide: all German works, but spanning more than four centuries of repertoire. The group held the audience at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church in Alexandria nearly spellbound with its artistry. The only possible quibble was that occasionally there was a very slight imbalance in the upper texture; Calmus has only one female member, the alto parts being taken by a countertenor who could not always match the clear projection of the soprano. But in matters of pitch, diction and musical shaping, I’ve never heard finer ensemble singing. From the lively “Italian Madrigals” of Heinrich Schütz, to a setting by Johann Hiller of “Alles Fleisch” (used by Brahms centuries later in “Ein Deutsches Requiem”), to the numinous coloratura of Bach’s “Lobet den Herrn,” to some especially lovely part-songs of Schumann, to a performance-art work written for the group by Bernd Franke in 2010, the quintet met the demands of every piece with cool perfection.

  • Historicism and German Nationalism in Max Reger's Requiems
    Historicism and German Nationalism in Max Reger’s Requiems Katherine FitzGibbon Background: Historicism and German During the nineteenth century, German Requiems composers began creating alternative German Requiems that used either German literary material, as in Schumann’s Requiem für ermans have long perceived their Mignon with texts by Goethe, or German literary and musical traditions as being theology, as in selections from Luther’s of central importance to their sense of translation of the Bible in Brahms’s Ein Gnational identity. Historians and music scholars in deutsches Requiem. The musical sources tended the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries to be specifically German as well; composers sought to define specifically German attributes in made use of German folk materials, German music that elevated the status of German music, spiritual materials such as the Lutheran chorale, and of particular canonic composers. and historical forms and ideas like the fugue, the pedal point, antiphony, and other devices derived from Bach’s cantatas and Schütz’s funeral music. It was the Requiem that became an ideal vehicle for transmitting these German ideals. Although there had long been a tradition of As Daniel Beller-McKenna notes, Brahms’s Ein German Lutheran funeral music, it was only in deutsches Requiem was written at the same the nineteenth century that composers began time as Germany’s move toward unification creating alternatives to the Catholic Requiem under Kaiser Wilhelm and Bismarck.

  • Requiem Woo V/9
    Max Reger (1873–1916) Requiem WoO V/9 Vervollständigung der Sequenz zum Konzertgebrauch von Thomas Meyer-Fiebig Einleitung I. Bekanntlich waren Tod und Vergänglichkeit ein zentrales Thema in Max Regers Denken und Schaffen.1 Schon im langsamen Satz der 1894-5 entstandenen Orgelsuite e-Moll op. 16 findet sich neben den Choralmelodien Es ist das Heil uns kommen her und Aus tiefer Not schrei ich zu dir die achte Strophe des Chorals O Haupt voll Blut und Wunden, »Wenn ich einmal soll scheiden«; rund zwanzig Jahre später war die Aktualität dieser Choralstrophe nicht geringer geworden, an Arthur Seidl schrieb Reger 1913: »Haben Sie noch nicht bemerkt, wie durch alle meine Sachen der Choral durchklingt „Wenn ich einmal soll scheiden?“«2 Selbst in der Verlobungszeit schuf Reger zahlreiche Choralvorspiele, die dem Themenbereich nahestehen: »Ich hab in den letzten Tagen Sachen geschrieben, die fast durchgängig vom Tode handeln! Sei mir nicht böse, ich bin eben so tiefernst! | Du mußt mich „aufhellen“, mußt meine Verdüsterung u. Schwarzseherei langsam ablösen – u. ich weiß, Dir, aber nur Dir allein, gelingt es!«3 Stimmungsaufhellungen sollten bei dem hochsensiblen Musiker immer wieder nur temporär sein, nicht nur musikalisch kreisten seine Gedanken immer wieder um Tod und Vergänglichkeit. Es ist bezeichnend, wie ironisch sich Karl Straube später zu Regers Empfindungen äußerte; an Günther Ramin schrieb er 1928: »Günter Raphael hat sein Violinkonzert vollendet. Ein erstaunlicher Mensch. Von einer Maßlosigkeit des Schaffens wie Max Reger. Sollte auch er unbewußt Todesnähe ahnen?«4 Schon vor Beginn des Ersten Weltkrieges, während seines Kuraufenthalts im 1 Vgl.

  • Max Reger's Opus 135B and the Role of Karl Straube a Study of The
    STM 1994–95 Max Reger’s Opus 135b and the Role of Karl Straube 105 Max Reger’s Opus 135b and the Role of Karl Straube A study of the intense friendship between a composer and performer that had potentially dangerous consequences upon the genesis of Reger’s work Marcel Punt Max Reger’s “Fantasie und Fuge in d-moll, op. 135b” for organ appears at a very cru- cial moment in the history of German music. Reger wrote this piece between 1914 and 1916, a period in which tonality had to give way to other principles of composi- tion, such as unity creating intervals, twelve-tone music, variable ostinato, tone co- lour-melodies, etc. With this piece, Reger stands in the middle of this “development” from Wagner to Schönberg and Webern. So although the piece is still based on tona- lity, it already shows some aspects of the music that was to supersede it, namely both the fantasy and the fugue, which are based on the interval of a small second, the first theme of the fugue which consists of 11 different tones, the second which consists of even 12 different tones, and Reger’s way of changing sound together with the phrasing and the harmonic progress of the music. Reger’s opus 135b for organ could be regar- ded as one of his most advanced and still deserves more attention than it has received to date. Most organists will still only know the piece in its definite shape, now available in the Peeters-edition. But the manuscript that was first sent to the editor Simrock in Berlin, differs quite substantially from the version that Simrock finally published.

  • War Requiem”—Benjamin Britten (1963) Added to the National Registry: 2018 Essay by Neil Powell (Guest Post)*
    “War Requiem”—Benjamin Britten (1963) Added to the National Registry: 2018 Essay by Neil Powell (guest post)* In October 1958, Benjamin Britten was invited to compose a substantial work for chorus and orchestra to mark the consecration of Coventry’s new cathedral, designed by Sir Basil Spence and intended to replace the building destroyed by German bombing in 1940. He accepted at once: the commission resonated deeply with Britten, a lifelong pacifist who intended to dedicate it to three friends killed in the Second World War. But by the time he began work on what was to become the “War Requiem,” in the summer of 1960, his interest in the project had been both complicated and deepened by two factors: one was his re-reading of Wilfred Owen’s war poems, which he proposed to interleave with the traditional movements of the Latin Requiem Mass; the other was the suicide of his friend Piers Dunkerley, whom Britten regarded as a delayed casualty of the war and who became the work’s fourth dedicatee. A very public commission had thus acquired a very private subtext. It was surely at this point that Britten began to think of his “War Requiem” as (in his own words) “a kind of reparation.” At the foreground of the work are an English and a German soldier, intimately accompanied by a chamber orchestra: in keeping with his overarching theme of reconciliation, Britten decided that these two male soloists should be his partner, the tenor Peter Pears, and the German baritone Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau. Beyond them are the performers of the liturgical texts--soprano soloist, chorus, symphony orchestra--and, more distant still, boys’ chorus and organ.

Psalm op. 106 (vollendet am 22. Juni 1909) waren Die Nonnen op. 112 (vollendet am 7. August 1909, Text von Martin Boelitz) das dritte großangelegte chorsymphonische Werk Max Regers, denen dann noch Die Weihe der Nacht op. 119 (1911, Text von Friedrich Hebbel), ein unvollendet gebliebenes lateinisches Requiem (1914) sowie die beiden hier erstmals in einer gemeinsamen Studienpartitur vorgelegten Werke op. 144, Der Einsiedler op. 144a und das Requiem op. 144b ‘Seele, vergiß sie nicht’, folgten. Laut Auskunft seiner Frau Elsa hatte Max Reger schon 1909 vor dem drohenden "Weltenbrand" gewarnt. Als der Erste Weltkrieg ausbrach, erwies er sich als vehementer Patriot, ersuchte sofort um Einberufung und wurde am 18.
