    THE SUBSTANCE OF STYLE HOW SINGING CREATES SOUND IN LIEDER RECORDINGS, 1902-1939 A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Rebecca Mara Plack May 2008 © 2008 Rebecca Mara Plack THE SUBSTANCE OF STYLE HOW SINGING CREATES SOUND IN LIEDER RECORDINGS, 1902-1939 Rebecca Mara Plack, Ph. D. Cornell University 2008 In this dissertation, I examine the relationship between vocal technique and performance style through 165 audio clips of early Lieder recordings. I proceed from the starting point that many stylistic gestures are in fact grounded in a singer’s habitual vocalism. Vibrato, tempo and rubato are directly affected by a singer’s voice type and his physical condition, and portamento has long been a technical term as well as a stylistic one. If we consider these technical underpinnings of style, we are inevitably moved to ask: how do a singer’s vocal habits affect what we perceive to be his style? Does a singer’s habitual vocalism result in his being more likely to make certain style gestures, or even unable to make others? To address these questions, I begin by defining a vocabulary that draws on three sources: the language of vocal pedagogy, data derived from voice science, and evidence drawn from recordings themselves. In the process, I also consider how some Lieder singers distorted the word “technique,” using it to signify emotional detachment. Next, I examine the ways in which a recording represents the performer, addressing how singers are affected by both changing aesthetics and the aging process; both of these lead to a discussion of how consistently some performers make certain stylistic gestures throughout their recordings.

    Bruckner and the National Socialists in Germany Ephemera from a Dark

    Bruckner and the National Socialists in Germany Ephemera from a Dark Time ————- By John F. Berky Bruckner & the National Socialists in Germany – Ephemera from a Dark Time The life and music of composer Anton Bruckner would be interesting if it simply encompassed the years of his life, but unlike most composers, Bruckner’s music and even his life took on an added dimension of interpretation during the reign of the National Socialist Party in Germany from 1933 to 1945. The appropriation of Bruckner’s music by the Nazi Party is a fascinating study and one that has been well covered in several scholarly essays. The purpose of this essay is not so much to discuss that complex time, but to look at that era through the examination of several artifacts from that time. In most cases, the objects are small and ephemeral in nature but it is often these overlooked and easily discarded objects that can tell an interesting sidelight and lead us to a better realization of the tenor of the times. Program Booklets: One of the most ephemeral, but often most informative musical objects of this time are con- cert program booklets. Often simply discarded after the concert, an occasional notice or program book can give a glimpse into the musical activity of the time. My interest has always centered around the year 1937, because in that year, the appropriation of Bruckner’s music became official with the establishment of the “Day of German Art” celebrations and the placing of Bruckner’s bust in the Temple of Walhalla, the shrine overlooking the Danube in Regensburg, Germany.

I think the culprit was my old friend Hans Redlich. who- wrote that book tying them together. I liken them to Marks and Spencer. When I come to London to make plans with the orchestras I say to them, 'What do you want me to do this season, Marks's Sixth and Spencer's Fourth?'. Today, when someone asks me what works I would like to conduct, there are very few pieces by these two composers among them. You know, I also conduct Mozart, Beethoven and Brahms, not to mention Sibelius, Nielsen, Janacek, Roussel, Berg and Webern." Jascha Horenstein talks to Alan Blyth, The Gramophone, November 1970 History has denied Horenstein's wish not to be typecast as a Bruckner and Mahler conductor and in later life, as wel l as posthumously, his wider reputation rested almost exclusively on this repertoire. Bruckner fi rst entered his symphony no 6 consciousness at age 14 when, in June 1912, he attended a concert in Vienna conducted by Artur Nikisch that in a major included the Ninth symphony. The experience left a life-long impression: "It probably influenced me to become a conductor", he declared many years later. During the Weimar era Horenstein's fame rested to some extent on his read ings of Bruckner after several enthusiastically received performances of the Ninth in Berl in and Frankfurt contributed to his meteoric rise among young conductors of the day. However his performance of the Ninth in Leningrad in April 1932 turned out to be the last time he conducted any music by Bruckner in public for the next 25 years, an inexplicably long period of time.

    A Collection of Stan Ruttenberg's Reviews of Mahler Recordings From

    A collection of Stan Ruttenberg’s Reviews of Mahler Recordings from the Archives Of the Colorado MahlerFest (Symphonies 3 through 7 and Kindertotenlieder) Colorado MahlerFest XIII Recordings of the Mahler Third Symphony Of the fifty recordings listed in Peter Fülöp’s monumental discography (up to 1955, and many more have been added since then), I review here fifteen at my disposal, leaving out two by Boulez and one by Scherchen as not as worthy as the others. All of these fifteen are recommendable, all with fine points, all with some or more weaknesses. I cannot rank them in any numerical order, but I can say that there are four which I would rather hear more than the others — my desert island choices. I am glad to have the others for their own particular merits. Getting ready for MFest XIII we discovered that the matter of score versions and parts is complex. I use the Dover score, no date but attributed to Universal Edition; my guess this is an early version. The Kalmus edition is copied from who knows which published version. Then there is the “Critical Edition,” prepared by the Mahler Gesellschaft, Vienna. I can find two major discrepancies between the Dover/Universal and the Critical (I) the lack of horns at RN25-5, doubling the string riff and (ii) only two harp glissandi at the middle of RN28, whereas the Critical has three. Our first horn found another. Both the Dover and Critical have the horn doublings, written ff at RN 67, but only a few conductors observe them.

    Book Reviews 185 dices: a 57-page glossary towards the end of the book defines technical terms ranging from "alkaline" to "digital audio recording" to "vellum"; a list of professional organiza­ tions including address, telephone number, mission, and publications issued; and a selective list of periodical publications that are of particular interest to professionals planning and overseeing a preservation program. I have a few quibbles with the book. For one thing, an important discussion of the issue of electronic records is buried in Chapter 11, "Image and Sound: The Care and Preservation of Motion Pictures, Sound Recordings, and Videotape," in a short section called "Computer Records". Also, I expected to find a discussion of digitization in Chapter 12, "Reformatting for Preservation". In the copy I reviewed there is an unfor­ tunate mistake in the table of contents where the same subtitle: "The Care and Preservation of Motion Pictures, Sound Recordings, and Videotape" appears under Chapter 10, "Photographic Materials" and Chapter 11, "Image and Sound". While sound archivists and collectors probably won't purchase this book for the information it contains about the preservation of recorded sound materials, they should consider purchasing it for the overview it provides of preservation issues in libraries in general and also for the useful advice it offers about books, photographs, and other non-sound materials found in libraries.
