The higher or smaller instruments were named by the French "haulx-bois" or "hault- bois" which was transcribed by the Italians into oboe which name is now used in English, German and Italian to distinguish the smallest instrument • In a symphony orchestra, it usually gives the pitch to the other instruments • Is it time for you to take note of your insurance needs? • We welcome the opportunity to analyze your present program and offer our professional service to provide you with intelligent, complete protection.

Kraut SYMPHONY HALL BOSTON ['475] RCA VICTOR few The most trusted name in sound Erich IjCsa^idorf (a new Dynagroove recording) The very essence of romance: Schumann played bythe Boston Symphony During his second year of marriage, Robert Schumann completed his Fourth Symphony and presented it to his beloved wife Clara on her birthday. Erich Leinsdorf's choice of this symphony as the first truly "romantic" symphony he has recorded with the Boston Symphony is indeed propitious. The work is imbued with the very essence of romance, traceable to Schumann's profound love for Clara. The work is coupled with a perform- ance of the "Leonore Overture No. 3" which dramatically reveals the affinity of Mr. Leinsdorf and "The Aristocrat of Orchestras" for the music of Beethoven. The Dynagroove sound on this album Is wonderful. Hear it soon. [1476] CONTENTS Program 1481 ®T(aRanwa5lnc.

It was last performed at the Friday and Saturday concerts of the Boston Symphony Orchestra on December 29-30, 1961. The original orchestration calls for flute, 2 oboes, 2 bassoons, 2 horns and strings. Mozart subsequently added parts for 2 clarinets, and this version is used in the present performances. 'T^HE G minor Symphony is cast as plainly as any symphony of -•- Mozart in a pervasive mood and style. It is a strongly incisive music which attains its strength by deftness and concentration instead of by massive means.* The special coloring of the G minor Symphony * Mozart dispenses altogrether with trumpets and timpani, attaining contrasts by delicate adjustment within a limited orchestral plan. The first autograph indicated two oboes but no clarinets ; later Mozart wrote out extensive parts for two clarinets, robbing the oboes of many passages and retaining the oboes principally for ensemble, as if to preserve a requisite touch of acidity. Editions are current with clarinets and without. Tovey has this to say about the use of the horns : "Another point in the study of the small orchestra is the ingenious use Mozart makes in his symphony of two horns pitched in two different keys, both of them high ; by which means he anticipates Berlioz in a device which doubles the normal number of notes possible in his time on the limited scale of the horn. Much of the surprising fullness of tone in the first movement and finale of this symphony comes from the fact that the horns are able to contribute to the harmony when in normal circumstances they would have to be silent." in 1964 as in 1898 ^adltion •^peciaiidtd 3or Ijiouna Woi/i/omen TWENTY NEWBURY STREET [1483] is illustrated by Mendelssohn's retort to a declaration of Liszt that the pianoforte could produce the essential effects of an orchestral score. "Well," said Mendelssohn, "if he can play the beginning of Mozart's G minor Symphony as it sounds in the orchestra, I will believe him." (The Symphony begins with a delicate piano in the string quartet, the lightly singing violins supported by darkly shaded chords of the divided violas.) The opening theme shows at once the falling semi-tone to the dominant which for generations seems to have been the composers* convention for plaintive sadness.

Through this passage of time many changes have been made in the original design. The early instruments shown in drawings on the tomb of Rameses II (1292-1225 B.C.) were richly decorated but lacked the fore-pillar. Later the "Kinner" developed by the Hebrews took the form as we know it today. The pedal harp was invented about 1720 by a Bavarian named Hochbrucker and through this ingenious device it be- came possible to play in eight major and five minor scales complete. Today the harp is an important and familiar instrument providing the "Exquisite Sound" and special effects so important to modern orchestration and arrange- ment.

[email protected] Your Account Number: {MM:Account Number} {MM:Postcode} {MM:Address5} {MM:Address4} {MM:Address3} {MM:Address2} {MM:Address1} {MM:Name} 1 Welcome! Dear Customer, Young Norwegian soprano Lise Davidsen has gradually been garnering attention in recent years, perhaps making the leap to a wider awareness following her award of Gramophone’s ‘Young Artist of the Year’ in 2018 and her sublime performance of Strauss’s ‘Morgen’ at the ceremony. Ariadne was her major role last year; 2019 sees her take on the part of Elisabeth in Tannhauser - Zurich and Munich have already had the pleasure and she will be taking it to Bayreuth in July, under the baton of Valery Gergiev in a brand new production. Pleasingly for those of us who won’t manage to catch her live, her debut album on Decca has just been released, featuring two arias from Tannhauser plus orchestral lieder (and one aria) by Richard Strauss. We have been hugely impressed, especially considering her mere 32 years of age, making it a clear choice for Disc of the Month. Please see our website for our full review. Other new releases to highlight for June include a second lieder recital from Decca, performed by none other than Renee Fleming; Hyperion issue the latest in their series of ‘Romantic Violin Concertos’, this volume featuring works by Lassen, Scharwenka and Langgaard; the Vaughan Williams Society offer us his works for viola and piano via the Albion label; the final instalment in the Halle’s superb Ring Cycle (Siegfried) is released on the Halle’s own label; and stunning vocal ensemble Vox Luminis give us a treat in the shape of works by the Bach Family.
