We are convenient to shops, theatres and hotels, so that most of busy Boston knows where we are. Many music lovers do not go by, but come in to see us from time to time. Perhaps they are planning to buy a new piano. It is a purchase to be considered carefully. They wish to be thoroughly familiar with all the good points of our pianos — tone., finish, workmanship, style and price. They buy, knowing that the pleasure of a good piano will be theirs for years to come. Perhaps they wish to know the latest Ampico recordings. They add to their Ampico library the marvelous interpretations of the famous pianists as they are made—exclusively for the Ampico. We invite you to come in as you pass by. We will play for you or let you try the different instru- ments yourself. We are here to serve the music lovers by showing them pianos enduring of tone, built of the finest materials by skilled workmen. You can afford a good piano. We offer you a wide range of prices, an allowance on your old piano and make satisfactory terms for payment of the balance. n^ tSTABUSHEO£STABL(SHEO 1823 (J£j // 169-Tremont Street, Boston PIANOS OF ALL PRICES—EACH PREEMINENT IN ITS CLASS SANDERS THEATRE .

Mahler born at Kalischt, in Bohemia, July 7, 1860; died at Vienna on May 18, 1911) This Entr'acte was first performed at the production of "Die drei Pintos," under Mahler's direction at the New City Theatre, Leipsic, on January 20, 1888. The first performance in the United States was at one of Anton Seidl^s concerts in Steinway Hall, New York, on November 10, 1888. The history of the opera is a curious one. Weber had considered from time to time taking a libretto derived from F. W. Gubitz's "Sappho"; Gubitz's "Alfred"; Fr. Kind's "Alcindor"; Kind's "Der Cid"; also a "Tannhauser." "Die drei Pintos," a comic opera in three acts, was to be Weber's twelfth dramatic work. The text was by Theodor Hell, whose real name was Karl Winkler. Hell took his story of Spanish amorous adventure from a novel "Der Brautkampf," by Dr. C. Seidel, which was published as a serial in the Dresden Abendzeitung in 1819. Weber began to compose music at Dresden for this libretto on Feb- ruary 28, 1820. He completed seven numbers, of which No. 6, the last, was finished on November 8, 1821. It was on May 13, 1820, that he began work on "Der Freischiitz." In 1820, he wrote the music for "Preciosa." Enthusiastic at first over "Die drei Pintos," he apparently lost interest in the work, as shown by his letters; but in December, 1824, he hoped to complete the opera in that winter. But there was the invitation from London to write an opera for Covent Garden, his "Oberon." — Weber died leaving—as is generally supposed "Die drei Pintos" unfinished.

  • 13 Foreword to Richard Taruskin's Essays On
    13 FOREWORD TO RICHARD TARUSKIN’S ESSAYS ON MUSORGSKY Th e entry below initially appeared in 1993, as a Foreword to a book of ground-breaking essays on Modest Musorgsky by Richard Taruskin (Musorgsky: Eight Essays and an Epilogue [Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1993]). At the time Taruskin was the foremost authority on Russian music in the Western world; by now (2010) he has become foremost in several other areas as well. To his writings and generous mentorship I owe my education in this Russian composer. EXCERPTS FROM THE FOREWORD TO RICHARD TARUSKIN, MUSORGSKY: EIGHT ESSAYS AND AN EPILOGUE 1993 In 1839, the year of Musorgsky’s birth, the Marquis de Custine made a three-month journey through the Russian Empire. Th e travel account he published four years later, La Russie en 1839, became an international bestseller; to this day, fairly or no, it is read as a key to that country’s most grimly persistent cultural traits.1 Astolphe de Custine (1790–1857) was an aristocrat from a family ravaged by the French Revolution. Nevertheless, he came to view the Russian absolute autocracy (and the cunning, imitative, servile subjects it bred and fostered) as far more deceitful and potentially 1 See the reprint edition of the fi rst (anonymously translated) English version of 1843, Th e Marquis de Custine, Empire of the Czar: A Journey through Eternal Russia (New York: Anchor-Doubleday, 1989). Quotations in this essay occur on pp. 600, 109, and 206 respectively. George Kennan has called La Russie en 1839 “not a very good book about Russia in 1839” but “an excellent book, probably in fact the best of books, about the Russia of Joseph Stalin” (George F.

    __________________________________________________________________________ 2 MUSIKSTUNDE mit Trüb Freitag, 15. 2. 2013 „Weber, Wald und Wolfsschluchzen: Das Theatergenie Carl Maria von“ (5) MUSIK: INDIKATIV, NACH CA. … SEC AUSBLENDEN Carl Maria von Weber war ein Komponist der Zukunft. Zeitlebens genoss er kein besonders hohes Ansehen innerhalb der „Zunft“ - aber die Nachgeborenen verehren ihn. In seinen Memoiren etwa schrieb Héctor Berlioz: „Der Komponist hat den kindischen Forderungen der Mode und den noch gebieterischeren Forderungen der Sängereitelkeit (…) nirgends auch nur im geringsten nachgegeben. Er hat seine schlichte Wahrhaftigkeit, seine stolze Ursprünglichkeit, seinen Hass gegen den Formelkram, seine Würde dem Publikum gegenüber, dessen Beifall er durch keine feige Herablassung erkaufen wollte, seine Größe ebenso im Freischütz wie im Oberon bewahrt.“ Robert Schumann fand im Weber'schen Oeuvre „alles höchst geistreich und meisterhaft“, Tschaikowsky hörte vor allem „(viel) Wärme, (…) Unmittelbarkeit der Eingebung, (vollständiges) Fehlen von Künstelei und technischer Anstrengung“. Claude Debussy meinte: „Er erforscht die Seele der einzelnen Instrumente und legt sie mit behutsamer Hand bloß. Sie offenbaren sich ihm und geben ihm mehr, als er gefordert hatte.“ Und im Gespräch mit Erwin Kroll, anno 1932, verriet Strawinsky lapidar: „Weber ist einer meiner Lieblingskomponisten.“ Nicht zu vergessen auch die Hommage der Tat: Gustav Mahler bewunderte Weber so sehr, dass er dessen Opernfragment „Die drei Pintos“ bis zur Bühnenreife bearbeitete, und Paul Hindemith schuf eines seiner bekanntesten Orchesterstücke nach Webers Schauspielmusik zu „Turandot“: Sinfonische Metamorphosen über Themen von Carl Maria von Weber. MUSIK: HINDEMITH, SINF. METAMORPHOSEN, TRACK 5 (3:54) Schönste Form des Komplimentes: das liebevoll umspielte Zitat.
