(Mr. Steinhardt, also a longtime member of the Curtis faculty, is one.) looking back, the current golden age of string quartets can be traced to a mission statement issued almost 90 years ago by early Curtis director Josef Hofmann: “to hand down through contemporary masters the great traditions of the past; to teach students to build on this heritage for the future.” Mary louise Curtis Bok created a haven for both teachers and students to immerse themselves in music at the highest levels without financial burden.

  • From Folk Source to Professional Creation
    GESJ: Musicology and Cultural Science 2019|No.1(19) ISSN 1512-2018 UDC - 78 FROM FOLK SOURCE TO PROFESSIONAL CREATION: ON ONE TUSHETIAN TUNE Zumbadze Natalia, Matiashvili Ketevan Vano Sarajishvili Tbilisi State Conservatoire, 8-10 Griboedov st. Summary: The article discusses the distribution area and development of one Tushetian tune mostly known as Mtsqemsuri. Today unison performance of this polyphonic melody, by nature, is explained as a decline of the process of Georgian traditional polyphonic thinking. The article also touches upon the examples of academic music, folk-jazz, author’s folklore, popular genre, which are successful or unsuccessful attempts of arranging the folk source. Keywords: Georgian (Tushetian) music, mtsqemsuri, Arjevnishvili, Tsintsadze, Erkomaishvili, Ebralidze. When researching Georgian-North Caucasian parallels in addition to archival materials preserved at the Georgian Folk Music Laboratory we got familiarized with the audio recordings copied by ethnomusicologist Manana Shilakadze from the archives of Dagestan State Television and Radio Committee in 1981. These included a panduri piece entitled “Georgian motive” performed by renowned Avarian folk professional Ramazan Magomedov (audio ex. N1). This is the tune that Sulkhan Tsintsadze used in one of his quartet miniatures “Mtsqemsuri” (Shepherd’s song), which is the final fifth part (Simghera; Gaprindi, shavo mertskhalo; Satsekvao; Khumroba, Mtsqemsuri) of the quartet suite composed in 1951 (audio ex. N2). Sulkhan Tsintsadze’s miniatures are more or less discussed in musicological literature. All authors unanimously recognize their folk basis, but the specific source of Mtsqemsuri is not indicated anywhere [1:47]; [2:107, 111]; [3:74, 75, 90, 94]. The notated version of the tune published by the Republican House of Folk Art in 1964 is entitled Tushuri satrpialo (Tushetian love song), with well-known singer, choir master and virtuoso panduri player Mariam Arjevnishvili (1918-1958) indicated as the author (her husband Geronti Tughushi is the author of the verbal text) (notated ex.
