Jules Emile Frederic Massenet (Born at Montaud, near Saint-Etienne [Loirel, France, on May 12, 1842; died at Paris, August 14, 1912.) At the beginning of the musical season of 1873-74 Jules Pasdeloup, conductor of the Concerts Populaires in Paris, asked three French composers to write, each of them, a symphonic overture. The over- tures would be played, he said, on successive Sundays. The com- posers were Bizet, Massenet, and Guiraud. Bizet's "Patrie" was performed on February 15, 1874; Massenet's "Phedre" on February 22, 1874; Guiraud's " Concert Overture," afterwards entitled "Artewelde," on the Sunday following. Massenet took for a motto these lines from Racine's " Phedre"*: Ce n'est plus une ardeur dans mes veines cachee, C'est Venus tout entiere a sa proie attachee. For a performance of Racine's tragedy at the Odeon, Paris, December 8, 1900, t Massenet wrote music for the action and entr'actes designed to sum up the situation of the preceding act and to prepare the spectator for the act to follow: Entr'acte of Act II., Thesee in the Shades; that of Act III., a, Sacrifice and Offering, in a pontifical manner, b, Athenean March written in the ancient style; that of Act IV., Prayer to Neptune; that of Act V., Hippolyte and Aricie, an idyl, sung by clarinet and English horn, and repeated by solo violin [Jacques ThibaudJ. The music was praised; the action on the stage condemned. There were six per- formances that month. Edouard Colonne conducted the orchestra. The score, dedicated to Joseph Dupont, calls for these instruments: piccolo, two flutes, two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons, four horns, two cornets-a-pistons, two trumpets, three trombones, bass tuba, kettledrums, and strings. When this overture was performed in Chicago in 1905, Mr. Hubbard Harris, then the editor of the Programme Books, supplied the following argument, without stating, as Mr. Borowski, the present and admirable editor of the Chicago Orchestra Programme Books, says, whether Massenet was responsible for it: "The composition follows in a general way Racine's tragedy of the same name. After the portentous opening we hear the ill-fated queen, overwhelmed at the thought of, and bewailing, her unlawful passion (clarinet). The duet in the oboes suggests the scene between Phedre and (Enone. The tragic motive breaks in again, and changes into an Allegro appassionato (Hippolytus chafing under his restraint, and on the point of leaving for Mycenae). Phedre and Hippolytus meet; the passionate declaration of love follows (given to the violins in unison), and then the storm breaks over us. Neptune redeems his vow to Theseus. Hippolytus, encountering the monster cast up by the rising sea, is dragged to his death by the frightened steeds. Again we hear the wailing melody of the beginning, and the declaration of undying love; the turbulent episode of the first part is repeated and the overture closes with the tragic motive of the opening." Massenet used some of the material of this overture in his opera "Ariane." * Produced at the Hotel de Bourgogne on January 1, 1677. New Year's Day was not then cele- brated in France, but theatres were closed on December 24 and 25. Marie Desmares de Champmesle took the part of Phedre. Rachel took the part of Phedre in Racine's tragedy at the Boston Theatre, October 23, 1855. t Thesee, M. de Max; Hippolyte, M. Vargas; Phedre, Mile. Dauphin; Aricie, Mile. Franquet; Theramene, M. A.

Beryl. 7 — Fantasia on Scottish Folk-melodies for Violin and Orchestra, Op. 46 Max Bruch (Born at Cologne, January 6, 1838; died October 3, 1920.) The full title of this composition is "Fantasia (Introduction, Adagio, Scherzo, Andante, Finale) for the Violin, with Orchestra and Harp, with the free use of Scottish Folk-melodies." The fantasia was composed in the winter of 1879-80 at Berlin, and played for the first time at Hamburg, late in September, 1880, at a Bach Festival, by Pablo de Sarasate, to whom the work is dedicated. The first performance in Boston was by Charles Martin Loeffler at a concert of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, November 24, 1888. Timothee Adamowski played it at concerts of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, January 11, 1896, February 4, 1899 ; Mr. Birnbaum on November 28, 1903 ; Kathleen Parlow on December 2, 1911. The Fantasia is scored for two flutes, two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons, four horns, two trumpets, three trombones, kettle- drums, harp, solo violin, strings ; bass tuba, bass drum, and cymbals are used in the Introduction and the first movement.

    MODEST MUSSORGSKY Born March 21, 1839 in Karevo, Pskov District, Russia; died March 28, 1881 in St. Petersburg A Night on Bald Mountain (1867; arranged in 1886) Arranged by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov (1844-1908) PREMIERE OF WORK: St. Petersburg, October 15, 1886 Russian Symphony Orchestra Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, conductor APPROXIMATE DURATION: 12 minutes INSTRUMENTATION: woodwinds in pairs plus piccolo, four horns, two trumpets, three trombones, tuba, timpani, percussion, harp and strings In the 1860s, Russian music was just beginning to find its distinctive voice. A number of composers — Balakirev, Cui, Borodin, Rimsky-Korsakov and Mussorgsky — explored native musical and folkloric sources as the basis of a national art, and became loosely confederated into a group known as “The Mighty Handful” in Russia and “The Five” in the West. Since their works took their inspiration largely from indigenous legends and folk music, Mussorgsky considered himself lucky to receive a commission in 1861 (when he was just 21) for a dramatic musical composition based on a specifically Russian subject. On January 7th, he wrote to his mentor, Balakirev, “I have received an extremely interesting commission [for music for a drama titled The Witch by his friend Baron Georgy Fyodorovitch Mengden], which I must prepare for next summer. It is this: a whole act to take place on Bald Mountain … a Witches’ Sabbath, separate episodes of sorcerers, a solemn march for all this nastiness, a finale — the glorification of the Sabbath into which is introduced the commander of the whole festival on the Bald Mountain. The libretto is very good. I already have some material for it; it may turn out to be a very good thing.” The mountain to which Mussorgsky referred, well known in Russian legend, is Mount Triglav, near Kiev, reputed to be the site of the annual witches’ sabbath that occurs on St.

It fostered the creation of a variety of innovative artistic developments and is widely considered to be the birthplace of Modernism. Stravinsky’s Le Sacre du printemps, the epitome of modernist innovation, could only have happened in this unique cultural climate in the context of the Franco-Russian alliance. Stravinsky’s early musical development reached its peak in his early ballets, most notably Le Sacre du printemps. This work is a culmination of the multiplicity of cultural activities that include art, scenario, choreography, and music that came together in Paris. In this essay, I will explore the various ways in which the city of Paris in the beginning of the twentieth century influenced Stravinsky’s musical voice. My discussion moves from an overview of the city to Stravinsky, exploring the ways in which the Parisian environment shaped his compositional style.

  • Dorothea Redepenning Russian Content in a European Form
    Dorothea Redepenning Russian Content in a European Form The Dialogue of Cultures in Music Ideas• of what should be considered “Russian” music and how it relates to “European” music have changed consid- erably in the course of Russian music history – a history that is in fact a music history of St. Petersburg. These changes in turn have corresponded to the rhythm of Euro- pean cultures. In other words, Russian music as an ele- vated form of art can only be understood through its ex- changes with non-Russian music and its contacts with other musical cultures that have helped propel it towards self-determination. Without such a dialogue, music, like any art, remains provincial; beyond the framework of its own culture, it remains unnoticed internationally. This was the case of Russian music before 1700 and, for the most part, Soviet music.1 What makes music Russian – or, generally speaking, typical of any nation – can be defined, on the one hand, by the level of material and subject matter used: References to or quotations from folk music and themes from a na- tion’s history make a music specific to a particular nation. On the other hand, what is typical can also be defined by the level of method. However, if a composer decides to use elements of folklore or national history, then his work •——— Dorothea Redepenning (1954) is Professor of Musicology at Heidelberg University. OSTEUROPA 2005, Sketches of Europe, S. 149–181 150 Dorothea Redepenning may become recognizably Russian, Italian or German. In doing so, however, he shares the decision to work this way with every composer who wishes to create a national piece of music.

  • RUSSIAN & UKRAINIAN Russian & Ukrainian Symphonies and Orchestral Works
    RUSSIAN & UKRAINIAN Russian & Ukrainian Symphonies and Orchestral Works Occupying a vast land mass that has long been a melting pot of home-spun traditions and external influences, Russia’s history is deeply encrypted in the orchestral music to be found in this catalogue. Journeying from the Russian Empire through the Soviet era to the contemporary scene, the music of the Russian masters covers a huge canvas of richly coloured and immediately accessible works. Influences of folklore, orthodox liturgy, political brutality and human passion are all to be found in the listings. These range from 19th-century masterpieces penned by ‘The Mighty Five’ (Balakirev, Rimsky-Korsakov, Mussorgsky, Borodin, and Cui) to the edgy works of Prokofiev and Shostakovich that rubbed against the watchful eye of the Soviet authorities, culminating in the symphonic output of one of today’s most noted Russian composers, Alla Pavlova. Tchaikovsky wrote his orchestral works in a largely cosmopolitan style, leaving it to the band of brothers in The Mighty Five to fully shake off the Germanic influence that had long dominated their homeland’s musical scene. As part of this process, they imparted a thoroughly ethnic identity to their compositions. The titles of the works alone are enough to get the imaginative juices running, witness Borodin’s In the Steppes of Central Asia, Rimsky-Korsakov’s The Legend of the Invisible City of Kitezh, and Mussorgsky’s St John’s Night on the Bare Mountain.
