ARSC Journal
A Discography of the Choral Symphony by J. F. Weber In previous issues of this Journal (XV:2-3; XVI:l-2), an effort was made to compile parts of a composer discography in depth rather than breadth. This one started in a similar vein with the realization that SO CDs of the Beethoven Ninth Symphony had been released (the total is now over 701). This should have been no surprise, for writers have stated that the playing time of the CD was designed to accommodate this work. After eighteen months' effort, a reasonably complete discography of the work has emerged. The wonder is that it took so long to collect a body of information (especially the full names of the vocalists) that had already been published in various places at various times. The Japanese discographers had made a good start, and some of their data would have been difficult to find otherwise, but quite a few corrections and additions have been made and some recording dates have been obtained that seem to have remained 1.Dlpublished so far. The first point to notice is that six versions of the Ninth didn't appear on the expected single CD. Bl:lhm (118) and Solti (96) exceeded the 75 minutes generally assumed (until recently) to be the maximum CD playing time, but Walter (37), Kegel (126), Mehta (127), and Thomas (130) were not so burdened and have been reissued on single CDs since the first CD release. On the other hand, the rather short Leibowitz (76), Toscanini (11), and Busch (25) versions have recently been issued with fillers. -

Wolf displayed much musical promise, primarily within the realms of violin and piano. Although music exerted an influence over Wolf, school did not. Throughout his life, Wolf exercised a rebellion against many scholastic institutions, including the Conservatory of Vienna; this was his third school from which he withdrew. Having escaped school, Hugo Wolf attempted to make a living in many trades, including teaching piano and accompanying various other artists. Although he became a “Jack of All Trades,” a steady income was not reaching Wolf, and he continued on living in poverty. Wolf did excel as a music critic, a profession that did supply a small income and yet Wolf earned resentment from his musical colleagues. The harsh criticisms that flew from the quick-witted critic alienated certain musicians who in return refused Wolf any help. -

Ths is a serious book about "serious" music. Michael Kater's Twisted Muse is the author's second major contribution in five years to the study of music under National Sociahsm. In hs previous volume, Di&erent Drummers (Oxford, 1992), Kater provided a detaded and nuanced examination of jazz under the Nazis. In his new book, Kater turns his attention to the world of serious (ernste) music, a category encompassing not only classical compositions and performances, but also a good deal of the contemporary music of the 1930s and 1940s.This book bears many of the hallmarks of Kater's earlier work on jazz: resourceful research, copious dbcumentation, straightforward writing, and-a good worlung knowl- edge of music. -

He himself is two-thirds self-deception and blather. (The door is open for discussion.) Certain things remain immovable over Time: Homer is still enjoyed today; art conserves; but in the course of centuries working methods, like the surface of the Earth, undergo changes; the artist can no longer fly into the arms of Cervantes without becoming motheaten. The world has grown in breadth and depth; old Pegasus, outflanked by technology, has been hoodwinked and transformed into a stubborn mule. I claim that any good speculator, banker, soldier is a better writer than the majority of current authors. Writers of prose, always first to jump on the bandwagon, encompass the world not through new rigorous cold-blooded methods, but rather chew away constantly at “material” and problems of their internal inadequacy. -
Strauss' Capriccio
Richard Strauss’ Capriccio - A survey of the discography by Ralph Moore Strauss’ swansong opera Capriccio is not especially well represented in the catalogue; of the 22 complete recordings listed in the CLOR catalogue, only around a dozen have ever been available on CD and the rest were on video. Of those CD issues, several are no longer available and only three are studio recordings; two are radio broadcasts and the remainder are live or live composite stage performances. I consider here ten recordings, including all three of those studio accounts. The libretto was based on an original concept by Stefan Zweig, who had fled to the USA after the rise of the Nazis and committed suicide earlier in the year of the opera’s premiere, 1942. It was further developed by his successor as Strauss’ librettist, Josef Gregor, then Strauss himself took it over before passing it to his conductor friend Clemens Krauss – incidentally, possessor of one of the most blatant comb-overs in history - who completed it with continued input from the composer. The text is witty and more enjoyable if the libretto is to hand or you speak German. Like Strauss’ domestic comedy Intermezzo, Capriccio is wordy and conversational, but its intellectual and philosophical content is certainly higher and couched in some of the most sublime music Strauss ever penned. As a result, it is more popular and frequently performed than other of his late works. It is a vehicle for a supreme singer-actress with a creamy voice and a gift for enlivening text; noted performers who made recordings include Krauss’ second wife, Viorica Ursuleac, Lisa Della Casa, Elisabeth Schwarzkopf, Gundula Janowitz, Kiri Te Kanawa and, more recently, Renée Fleming. -
