  • Edouard Lalo Symphonie Espagnole for Violin and Orchestra, Op. 21
    PROGRAM NOTES by Phillip Huscher Edouard Lalo Born January 27, 1823, Lille, France. Died April 22, 1892, Paris, France. Symphonie espagnole for Violin and Orchestra, Op. 21 Lalo composed the Symphonie espagnole in 1874 for the violinist Pablo de Sarasate, who introduced the work in Paris on February 7, 1875. The score calls for solo violin and an orchestra consisting of two flutes and piccolo, two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons, four horns, two trumpets, three trombones, timpani, triangle, snare drum, harp, and strings. Performance time is approximately thirty-one minutes. The Chicago Symphony Orchestra's first subscription concert performances of Lalo's Symphonie espagnole were given at the Auditorium Theatre on April 20 and 21, 1900, with Leopold Kramer as soloist and Theodore Thomas conducting. Bizet's Carmen is often thought to have ignited the French fascination with all things Spanish, but Edouard Lalo got there first. His Symphonie espagnole—a Spanish symphony that's really more of a concerto—was premiered in Paris by the virtuoso Spanish violinist Pablo de Sarasate the month before Carmen opened at the Opéra-Comique. And although Carmen wasn't an immediate success (Bizet, who died shortly after the premiere, didn't live to see it achieve great popularity), the Symphonie espagnole quickly became an international hit. It's still Lalo's best-known piece by a wide margin, just as Carmeneventually became Bizet's signature work. Although the surname Lalo is of Spanish origin, Lalo came by his French first name (not to mention his middle names, Victoire Antoine) naturally. His family had been settled in Flanders and in northern France since the sixteenth century.

  • The Family of Leopold Auer in Reminiscences and Letters
    The Family of Leopold Auer in Memories and Letters by Marina Akimova I In 2018 it will be 150 years since Leopold Auer began his teaching career at the St. Petersburg Conservatory. Since his death his name has become synonymous with that of an incomparable pedagogue of violin in the same way as Paganini’s name has become identical to that of a supreme violinist. By now no one knows for certain how exactly he taught his students. Sometimes he is described as merely an adroit manager who helped to organise the concert life of the already accomplished musicians. This opinion can be contradicted by the words of Heifetz who worshipped Auer all his life: “Professor Auer was an extraordinary and incomparable teacher. I do not think that there has ever been anyone to touch him in the whole world. Ask me not how he taught. I know not how to tell you about it because he taught every student entirely differently. Perhaps it was because of this supremely individual approach that he was such a marvellous teacher. For me even half an hour with Auer was sufficient to provide me with emotional and intellectual stimulus. He was possessed of a first class brain, superb sense of humour, marvellous nervous system, and tremendous magnetism. As you see everything in him was superlative.” Of late, interest in Auer and his teaching seems to be everywhere. One can come across his name in the most unusual places, for instance on an internet site or in a new book by Dina Rubin, a contemporary writer in the Russian language.

Karen recounted Powell’s life from her birth in Illinois to her death in a hotel room in Uniontown, Pennsylvania MP Society Exhibit at the event. on a frigid January night in 1920, just two months after In addition to using Maud’s recordings to illustrate, she had suffered a heart attack that was mistaken for Rachel performed the Romance by Amy Beach, written “indigestion.” for Powell and premiered by Beach and Powell at the 1893 Columbian World’s Exposition in Chicago; Samuel Coleridge Taylor’s Deep River transcribed by Powell; Caprice on Dixie for solo violin in a combined arrange- ment by Rachel and Powell, and Nobody Knows the Trou- ble I See, the last piece of music performed by Powell two months before her death.

    MPI 0011 New York Times March 26, 1898 FIDDLE AND THE FIDDLER A Story of Maud Powell’s Transition from the Baby Instrument Up to the “Strad” Period. NOT A PRODIGY, JOACHIM SAID But She Had Talent, Which Was Better, and Worked Hard – Difficulty of American Players and Audiences in Overcoming Puritanism. This is a story of Miss Maud Powell and her “fiddle.” The word fiddle is in quotation marks because it is Miss Powell’s word. It does not behoove a stranger who is not on intimate terms with the instrument of instruments to say anything less dignified than violin. “But I should feel that it was almost an insult to call my dear old fiddle of violin,” Miss Powell says. To say ‘fiddle’ is like using the familiar pronoun of the Germans, ‘du,’ ‘thou .’” And the strangers do not say “du” upon first acquaintance, and Miss Powell’s violin is an instrument which should be treated with great respect, not only on general principles, but because of its age and good qualities. It is an Amati, Andreas Amati, and is 300 years old. Miss Powell has been using it for the past eight years. It is an instrument belonging to the collection of E. J. Delehanty, who loaned it to Miss. Powell. It is a “healthy instrument, has good whole word in it, and stands the changes of this climate.” That is a professional criticism and means a great deal. Professional violinists may almost be seen to grow by their violins. Miss Powell, for instance, has about reached the “Strad” period.
