  • The Bellevue House, Which Opened in 1828, Was One of Newport's First
    The Bellevue House, which opened in 1828, was one of Newport’s first grand hotels, providing an unprecedented level of hospitality, comfort, and luxury in the City-by-the-Sea. Image from John Ross Dix. A Hand-Book of Newport, and Rhode Island (Newport, R.I.: C.E. Hammett, Jr, 1852), 157. NEWPORT HISTORICAL SOCIETY. Music and Dancing at the “Queen of Resorts”: The Impact of the Germania Musical Society on Newport’s Hotel Period Brian M. Knoth We have the most absolute faith in steam factories, but we do not wish to see any more built in Newport…Let not the hum of spindles mock the music of the Sea .1 Music and dancing were integral features of Newport’s revival as a popular resort destination during its hotel period that began in the 1840s . Following a long period of economic depression, this era marked Newport’s emergence as a premier watering hole, with the establishment of several large well-appointed seaside hotels . At its height, in the 1850s, Newport was a world-class summer destination, known as the “Queen of Resorts ”. An extraordinary group of German musicians called the Germania Musical Society were instrumental to Newport’s flourishing resort economy during the 1850s . The significance of the Germania on Newport’s summer society, music culture, and resort traditions during the 1850s cannot be overstated . The Germania Musical Society first played in Newport in 1849, and for much of the next decade brought unrivaled musical experiences to Newport summer audiences for the first time, complementing a stunning natural environment and luxurious accommodations .

  • Jan Dewilde Paper 2009
    Frank Van der Stucken (1858-1929): a friend of Grieg and translator of his songs Lecture for International Edvard Grieg Conference, Berlin, 13-16 May 2009 This paper fits in with a research project that is presently being implemented in the library of the Royal Conservatoire of Antwerp about the composer-conductor Frank Van der Stucken. The library preserves a large collection of scores and documents of Van der Stucken, which form the basis of this research. The contacts between Edvard Grieg and the Flemish composer-pianist Arthur De Greef (1862-1940), who met in 1888, are well documented, but the piano virtuoso De Greef wasn’t Grieg’s first Flemish contact. One decade before, Grieg had already got to know an American composer with Flemish roots, namely Frank Van der Stucken. Frank Van der Stucken was born in 1858 in Fredericksburg, Texas, as the son of a Flemish father and a German mother.1 When the Secession War (1861-1865) had finished, the family no longer felt safe in Texas and in 1865 they returned to father Van der Stucken’s native town of Antwerp (Belgium). There Van der Stucken junior studied at the Flemish School of Music – the later Royal Flemish Conservatoire. He was a student of the director Peter Benoit (1834-1901), the standard bearer of nationalist music in Flanders. After his studies with Benoit, Van der Stucken went to Leipzig in 1878, like so many of his contemporaries, with a view to continuing his formation with Carl Reinecke. That’s where he first met Grieg, who became his friend.

    Library of The Harvard Musical Association Bulletin No. 10 February, 1941 Library Committee EDWARD B. HILL QUINCY PORTER ALEXANDER W. WILLIAMS RICHARD W. DWIGHT Director of the Library and Custodian of the Marsh Room Library and Marsh Room Marsh Room CHARLES R. NUTTER MURIEL FRENCH PATIENCE POWERS To the Members of the Association: The attention of members is called to an article by President Guild in this issue. * * * * Earlier Bulletins stated that one project of the Association on its organization was the formation of a Library. This project was begun at once, pursued with vigor, and often discussed at Directors’ meetings. Perhaps this concentrated energy was partly due to the fact that a Library was the one project among their several projects which, because it concerned themselves only, could be put through by themselves. For several years there were no funds available for the Library. Consequently accessions depended for a considerable time on the generosity of members, who were constantly urged to give music and books. From some members were received fine and for those days costly editions of classical music. Henry Gassett, on a trip abroad, brought back much music; Nathan Richardson gave a complete set of Bach’s works in 46 volumes, published by the Bach Society in Leipzig. This last was a remarkable gift, for the 46 volumes were costly and beautifully bound. Among other donors were F. H. Jenks; Henry Ware, Jr.; H. K. Oliver, who presented 25 volumes of English Glees collected by the Salem Glee Club and apparently the only edition; the Musical Antiquarian Society of London, which donated copies of “their beautiful and highly valuable publications”; Oliver Ditson and Company, who in 1860 presented 122 volumes of music and books; Joseph Coolidge, who in 1881 gave 50 volumes of music; and Arthur Foote, who during his membership gave much valuable music and some books.

    Introduction to: Randi Trzesinski and Richard Kitson, The Musical Gazette (1854-1855) Copyright © 2007 RIPM Consortium Ltd Répertoire international de la presse musicale (www.ripm.org) The Musical Gazette (1854-1855) The Musical Gazette [MGA] was published weekly on Saturdays in New York City by the Mason Brothers from 11 November 1854 until 5 May 1855, and comprised twenty-six weekly numbers, the first two containing sixteen pages each, the remainder eight pages each. The issues are numbered from 1 through 26 and the pages are numbered consecutively from 1 through 208. In 1851 Daniel Gregory Mason (1820-1869) and his brother Lowell Mason (1823-1885)—sons of music educator and composer Lowell Mason—united with Henry W. Law to create the Mason & Law publishing firm. Daniel Gregory and Lowell Mason, Junior established in 1853 their own firm, the Mason Brothers, publishers of secular and religious music, school textbooks, histories, English and French dictionaries and music periodicals.1 In 1854 they undertook publication of The Choral Advocate and Singing-Class Journal, and began two new musical periodicals in November of that year, The Musical Gazette (edited by Lowell Mason, Junior) and The Musical Review. After 5 May 1855 MGA was absorbed into another music journal published by the Mason Brothers, The New-York Musical Review and Choral Advocate which was then renamed The New-York Musical Review and Gazette.2 The Mason Brothers’ principal goal for MGA was publication of a journal “devoted to the higher departments of musical literature and criticism; … Musical news from all parts of the world, where music is cultivated, will be promptly and regularly given.”3 Each page of MGA is printed in a two-column format and issues are organized in three main parts.
