REPRESENTED BY WM. KNABE & CO. PARK AVENUE and FAYETTE ST.. BALTIMORE MD. Overture to ''Coriolanus,'' Op. 62 . Ludwig van Beethoven (Born at Bonn, December 16 (?), 1770; died at Vienna, March 26, 1827.) " The origitial manuscript of the overture bears this inscription : Over- tura (zum Trauerspiel Coriolan) composta da L. v. Beethoven, 1807." The words in parenthesis are crossed out. The overture was published in 1808: "Ouverture de Coriolan, Tragedie de M. de Collin, etc., com- posed et dediee a Monsieur de Collin, etc." The other compositions of 1807 were- the first Mass in C, the overture to "Leonore-Fidelio," No. 1, which was published as Op. 138, the Fifth Symphony, the ariette, "In questa tomba," the violin concerto changed into a piano- forte concerto, and probably the 'cello sonata, Op. 69. The tragedy by Heinrich Joseph von Collin was produced November 24, 1802, with entr'actes arranged from Mozart's music to "Idomeneo" by the Abbe Stadler. It was afterward revived with Lange as the hero and played often until March 3, 1805. From that date to the end of October, 1809, there was only one performance of the tragedy, and that was on April 24, 1807. Thayer concludes that the overture was not written for this performance, because the overture had been played at two concerts in March. These concerts were at the palace of Prince Lobkowitz in Vienna, and only pieces by Beethoven were performed, the first four symphonies, the "Coriolanus" overture, a pianoforte con- certo, and airs from "Fidelio." The overture was criticised most favorably in the Journal des Luxus und der Moden and Cotta's Mor- genbldtt as a "new work." A correspondent of the Allgemeine Musik Zeitung wrote : "According to the inscription, the overture was intended for Coilin's 'Coriolanus.'" Thayer adds: "How nobly Beethoven comprehended the character of Coriolanus has long been known; but how wonderfully the overture fits in the play can be judged properly only by those who have read Collin's nearly forgotten play," and hesays in a foot-note: "The author, from boyhood a reader of Shakespeare's 'Coriolanus,' remembers well the dissatisfaction he experienced when he first heard Beethoven's overture; it did not seem to him to fit the subject. When he read Collin's play, his discontent turned into wonder."

Gentlemen : — It is very difficult for me to tell you how much pleasure I have derived from using the Hardman Autotone. I cannot conceive how it has been possible to combine in one instrument such a superb and unique tone-quality as the Hardman, with a pneumatic action capable of so perfectly reproducing the human touch. Its expres- sion, accenting and transposing devices are marvellous. Congratulating you upon producing the most artistic so-called "player-piano" and wishing you still further success, I am Most cordially yours, In another letter from Mr. Caruso (written last season) referring to the Hardman Piano, this famous artist says: "I shall be glad to have one again on my return to America next season." Agreeable to the wishes of Mr. Caruso, a Hardman Autotone, which is at the same time a Hardman Piano, has been delivered to his apartments for his personal use this season. At our warerooms you can see the instruments of his choice, and in the event that you decide to purchase, terms will be arranged to meet your convenience and liberal allowance made for instruments taken in exchange. Hardman, Peck & Co. Established 1842 138 Fifth Ave., New York REPRESENTED IN BALTIMORE BY COHEN & HUGHES, 315 No. Howard Street — Beethoven knew the Coriolanus presented by Plutarch as well as the Coriolanus of Shakespeare and von Collin. One might say chat the character of Coriolanus was in certain ways sympathetic to him; and some may wonder at Thayer's dissatisfaction. Wagner had no thought of von Collin, when he wrote : "If we recall to mind the impression made upon us by the figure of Coriolanus in Shakespeare's drama, and from all the details of the complicated plot_first single that which lingered with us through its bearing on the principal character, we shall see one solitary shape loom forth: the defiant Coriolanus in conflict with his inmost voice, that voice which only speaks the more unsilenceably when issuing from his mother's mouth; and of the dramatic development there will remain but that voice's victory over pride, the breaking of the stubbornness of a nature strong beyond all bounds. For his drama Beethoven chooses nothing but these two chief motives, which make us feel more surely than all abstract exposition the inmost essence of that pair of characters. Then if we devoutly follow the movement developing solely from the opposition of these two motives in strict accordance with their musical character, and allow in turn the purely musical detail to- work upon us—the lights and shades, the meetings and part- ings of these two motives—we shall at like time be following the course of a drama whose own peculiar method of expression embraces all that held our interest, the complex plot and clash of minor characters, in the acted work of the playwright. What gripped us there as an action set immediately before us, almost lived through by ourselves, we here receive as inmost kernel of that action; there set forth by characters with all the might of nature-forces, it is here just as sharply limned by the musician's motives, identical in inmost ' essence with the motives at work in those characters."

However, the main motive was a possibility of financial reward. BRITAIN The rise in the nineteenth century of the celebrity composer, who was often also a conductor, is also traced.

New BRITAIN wagneropportunities were also presented by the opening of public halls, where concerts could be held, as well as the growth of music festivals.

  • Bach Christmas Oratorio BWV 248 (Novello Edition Ed
    PROGRAMME NOTES AND PREFACES Bach Christmas Oratorio BWV 248 (Novello edition ed. N. Jenkins) HISTORY AND ORIGINS OF THE WORK Although Bach's Christmas Oratorio (1734) has been as popular a work for choirs and choral societies to perform as his two Passions, it has striven against Handel's Messiah as the obvious work to choose for a Christmas performance. Its daunting length when performed uncut, and the need for a work with a less demanding orchestration (such as that found in Messiah) has probably meant that it has been chosen less often than it should have been. This may go some way to explain why there has been no new English edition since the original Novello Octavo edition, containing John Troutbeck's translation, of 1874. My researches in the British Library have turned up no other published translation apart from an incomplete version by Helen Johnston - also published in the year 1874. Helen Johnston (1813-87) was the first person to translate any of the major Bach choral works into English, producing her translation of the St Matthew Passion for Sir William Sterndale Bennett's 1862 edition. She does not appear to have turned her attention to the St John Passion, which was receiving frequent performances in England during the 1870s under the direction of Sir Joseph Barnby, since he used a translation made by a Minor Canon of Westminster Abbey - the Rev. John Troutbeck (1832-99). Troutbeck was an indefatigable translator, not only of all Bach's major choral works, but also of Oratorios by Beethoven, Brahms, Dvorak, Gounod, Liszt, Saint-Saens, Schumann and Weber.

  • “What Language Shall I Borrow?” Singing in Translation
    “WHAT LANGUAGE SHALL I BORROW?” SINGING IN TRANSLATION Daniel A. Mahraun Daniel A. Mahraun Choir Director Lutheran Church of the Holy Trinity Kailua-Kona, Hawaiʻi [email protected] 8 CHORAL JOURNAL Volume 56 Number 10 e have all likely done it at one time or another: we have conducted Wor sung works in translation. Our reasons probably varied. Perhaps we saw no point in teaching the original language to that particular choir. Perhaps we made the choice for the sake of a particular audience. Perhaps our decision was based solely on expediency. Regardless, any conscious or unconscious reason we had likely fl ew in the face of what many of us have heard or been taught: that the performance of vocal music in translation is a form of blasphemy. The late Roger Doyle made a case for singing in translation in his 1980 Choral Journal article, “What? Sing It in English? What Will the Neighbors Think?” In it, he bases his thoughts on the principal question of how to involve, to the fullest extent, the musicians and the listeners in a performance. Doyle lists what he saw as the four usual arguments against singing in translation then proceeds to reason them away. Those arguments are: 1) The nuance of the composer’s language is integral to the fl ow of the music. 2) Translations are provided in the printed programs. 3) The audience can’t understand the English either. 4) Good English versions are very scarce.1 “WHAT LANGUAGE SHALL I BORROW?” Though not advocating the use of English at all times 1) Singing in our native language saves rehearsal time.

  • Sullivan-Journal Nr. 13 (Juli 2015)
    Sullivan-Journal Nr. 13 (Juli 2015) Diese Ausgabe des Sullivan-Journals steckt voller Entdeckungen. Wir konnten endlich Sul- livans Leipziger Tagebuch auswerten und unser Mitglied Paul Seeley fand einen überraschen- den Hinweis auf eine Originalkomposition für Flöte. Jetzt muss dieses Stück, das bisher in kei- nem Werkverzeichnis aufgetaucht ist, nur noch gefunden werden! Der zweite Teil von Till Gerrit Waidelichs Beitrag über Sullivan und Schubert nimmt Bezug auf Sullivans Beteiligung an der Wiederentdeckung der Musik Schuberts zu Rosamunde (der erste Teil findet sich im Sullivan-Journal Nr. 11). Darüber hinaus lohnt es sich, einen Blick zu werfen auf Sullivans Beziehung zu Beethoven. Geschichte – auch die Musikgeschichtsschreibung – ist eine zeitgebundene Konstruktion, keine abstrakte Wissenschaft (siehe hierzu auch den Beitrag zur Rezeptionsentwicklung in dem 2011 erschienenen Sullivan-Band der von Ulrich Tadday herausgegebenen Reihe „Musik- Konzepte“). Wie einige Stellungnahmen von deutschen Autoren über das England des 19. Jahr- hunderts zeigen, ist sie bestimmt von Erfahrungen, Vorurteilen und Neigungen. Die vielen neu- en Blickwinkel auf Arthur Sullivans Leben und Wirken, die wir in den vergangenen sechs Jah- ren im Sullivan-Journal und in der Buchreihe SullivanPerspektiven vorgestellt haben, lassen heutzutage nur den Rückschluss zu, dass es falsch ist, in Sullivan lediglich den Schöpfer des Mikado und der Piraten von Penzance zu sehen – wir befassen uns hier mit einem der vielsei- tigsten und bemerkenswertesten Musiker und Komponisten des 19. Jahrhunderts, bei dem es noch viel Neues zu entdecken gibt. Dies hatte man bereits vor über140 Jahren erkannt – in ei- nem Bericht über Sullivans Te deum laudamus hieß es am 1.

  • Mr Troutbeck As the Surgeon's Friend: the Coroner and the Doctors- an Edwardian Comedy
    Medical History, 1995, 39: 259-287 Mr Troutbeck as the Surgeon's Friend: The Coroner and the Doctors- An Edwardian Comedy D ZUCK* On 17 May 1902, at the age of 48, after a brief illness, pneumonia, Athelston Braxton Hicks, coroner for the South-Western District of London and the Kingston District of Surrey, died.1 He was the son of the eminent obstetrician and gynaecologist, consultant to Guy's and St Mary's Hospitals, whose name is still attached to the irregular painless uterine contractions that occur during pregnancy.2 Originally he had been intended for the medical profession, and had been a student at Guy's for several years. He had been called to the bar in 1875, had been coroner for 17 years, and deputy before that. He had performed good public service in many ways. He had secured the regulation of the licensing of small boats, and of the sale of carbolic acid. He had campaigned against the evils of baby farming, and for fireguards in homes where there were small children. He was an authority on coroner's law, had been a very distinguished secretary and vice- president of the Coroner's Society, and had served on the Joint Committee of the British Medical Association and the Coroner's Society. "Though a member of the legal profession", in the words of his obituarist, he had taken a great interest in medical questions affecting his office. Many coroners and doctors attended his funeral, and the Medical Defence Union was represented. Had the term carried its present-day connotation, the Association, which was campaigning for the appointment of medically qualified coroners, might well have described him as "one of us".
