Mostly Mozart Festival Welcome to Mostly Mozart I am delighted to welcome you to the 2014 Mostly Mozart Festival, where we explore the many facets of our namesake composer’s brilliance and invention. What better way to usher in that spirit than with an outdoor world premiere work by American composer John Luther Adams. Sila: The Breath of the World transforms Lincoln Center’s Hearst Plaza into a sonic stage before we rejoin Mozart in Avery Fisher Hall with the acclaimed Mostly Mozart Festival Orchestra. This summer, our Festival Orchestra reaches beyond many Mozart masterpieces to the signature works of some of his great successors: Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony, Berlioz’s Symphonie fantastique , Martin’s Polyptyque . We join with favorite soloists—Joshua Bell, Richard Goode, Christian Tetzlaff—and also introduce luminaries making their festival debuts, including pianists Yuja Wang and Steven Osborne, and bass Ildar Abdrazakov. We are always pleased to welcome the Mark Morris Dance Group to Mostly Mozart. This August, Mark Morris brings his unparalleled affinity for Handel to his newest creation, Acis and Galatea . The Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra and the Emerson String Quartet delight us in Alice Tully Hall, while the International Contemporary Ensemble celebrates new music at Park Avenue Armory. And don’t forget to join us for music and wine in casual, intimate Little Night Music recitals at the Kaplan Penthouse. We all embrace the joy that celebrating Mozart’s music brings to New York in the summer. I hope to see you often here at Lincoln Center. Jane Moss Ehrenkranz Artistic Director Mostly Mozart Festival Signature Works by Peter A. Hoyt The musicologists who first investigated Johann Sebastian Bach (1685 –1750) discovered that some pieces, written in his handwriting and long attributed to him, were actually composed by other musicians. Bach had omitted their names during the copying process, and the scholars—disturbed by this hint of plagiarism—were relieved to learn that the early 18th century was often indifferent to niceties of attribution. Indeed, Bach himself frequently neglected to sign his own manuscripts. In the decades following, however, authorial identity took on greater importance. The col - lapse of the French aristocracy led Europe to emphasize individual merit, endowing artists with new dignity.

  • Music for a While’ (For Component 3: Appraising)
    H Purcell: ‘Music for a While’ (For component 3: Appraising) Background information and performance circumstances Henry Purcell (1659–95) was an English Baroque composer and is widely regarded as being one of the most influential English composers throughout the history of music. A pupil of John Blow, Purcell succeeded his teacher as organist at Westminster Abbey from 1679, becoming organist at the Chapel Royal in 1682 and holding both posts simultaneously. He started composing at a young age and in his short life, dying at the early age of 36, he wrote a vast amount of music both sacred and secular. His compositional output includes anthems, hymns, services, incidental music, operas and instrumental music such as trio sonatas. He is probably best known for writing the opera Dido and Aeneas (1689). Other well-known compositions include the semi-operas King Arthur (1691), The Fairy Queen (1692) (an adaptation of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream) and The Tempest (1695). ‘Music for a While’ is the second of four movements written as incidental music for John Dryden’s play based on the story of Sophocles’ Oedipus. Dryden was also the author of the libretto for King Arthur and The Indian Queen and he and Purcell made a strong musical/dramatic pairing. In 1692 Purcell set parts of this play to music and ‘Music for a While’ is one of his most renowned pieces. The Oedipus legend comes from Greek mythology and is a tragic story about the title character killing his father to marry his mother before committing suicide in a gruesome manner.

  • PROGRAM NOTES Henry Purcell
    PROGRAM NOTES by Phillip Huscher Henry Purcell - Suite from King Arthur Born sometime in 1659, place unknown. Died November 21, 1695, London, England. Suite from King Arthur Purcell composed his semi-opera King Arthur, with texts by John Dryden, in 1691. The first performance was given at the Dorset Garden Theatre in London in May of that year. The orchestra for this suite of instrumental excerpts consists of two oboes and english horn, two trumpets, timpani, and strings, with continuo provided by bassoon and harpsichord. Performance time is approximately twenty minutes. The Chicago Symphony Orchestra has performed music from Purcell's King Arthur (Trumpet Tune, "Ye blust'ring brethren of the skies," with Charles W. Clark as soloist, and Grand Dance: Chaconne) only once previously, on subscription concerts at the Auditorium Theatre on December 13 and 14, 1901, with Theodore Thomas conducting. Henry Purcell is the one composer who lived and worked before J. S. Bach who has found a place in the symphonic repertory. The Chicago Symphony played Purcell's music as early as 1901, when it programmed three selections from King Arthur on the first of its new "historical" programs designed to "illustrate the development of the orchestra and its literature, from the earliest times down to the present day." Purcell still stands at the very beginning of the modern orchestra's repertory, although he is best known to today's audiences for the cameo appearance his music makes in Benjamin Britten's twentieth- century classic, the Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra. Purcell is regularly described as the finest English composer before Edward Elgar, if not as the greatest English composer of all.

  • Dido & Aeneas – Opera by Henry Purcell
    Dido & Aeneas – Opera by Henry Purcell On a rainy and cool Sunday afternoon, numerous members and friends of our Association found their way to the Salle Laetitia in Ixelles. A brightly lit and nicely decorated hall set the stage for a lovely musical performance. Charlotte Messiaen, member of the Hungarian group, conducted a concert version of the opera Dido & Aeneas, performed by the vocal ensemble ‘Artemiss’ and Chelsae string consort. This is the only opera written by the baroque composer Henry Purcell between 1683 and 1688. It consists of a prologue and 3 acts. Purcell and his librettist Nahum Tate based the work on an episode in Virgil’s Aeneid, the ancient Roman epic about the Trojan prince, Aeneas, after the fall of Troy. In Act one, after escaping from Troy, Aeneas and his men set sail for Italy, where he is destined to find Rome. Blown off course to Carthage on the northern shore of Africa, Aeneas falls in love with Dido, Queen of Carthage. The act ends with general rejoicing. In Act two, the evil Sorceress and her witches are intent on destroying their happiness. To trick Aeneas into leaving Dido, Sorceress, disguised as Mercury, reminds Aeneas of his destiny in Rome and commands him to leave Carthage. Dido and Aeneas realize that they must separate. In Act three, as the fleet is being prepared to leave, the wicked Sorceress and her witches celebrate their victory and sing of their delight. Dido and Aeneas sing the famous duet ‘Away, away! No, I stay- Away, Away!’ When Aeneas realizes that he must leave, Dido is embittered and broken hearted, she knows she cannot live without him.
