HE Cincinnati festivals were founded by Theodore Thomas T in 1873, and were continued under his musical direction until his death on January 4, 1905. During that period all of the great classical choral works, and the more im:2ortant modern ones, were given with the assistance of distinguished solo­ ists. The schedules at the end of this book give in detail the works that were performed at each festival and the soloists who took part. The catalogue . shows that from the beginning there was manifested a catholic and progressive spirit which recognized all schools and every period in the mature development of the art, and that the association was moved always by a spirit of con­ scientious endeavor and high artistic purpose. Mr. Vander Stucken has continued faithfully and worthily the work begun" and carried on so long by Mr. Thomas. The last festival was given under his direction, with

  • 1 the Alps, Richard Strauss's Alpine Symphony and Environmentalism
    Note: This is an expanded version of an article appearing in the journal Green Letters (2011); it is intended for a literary rather than musical readership, and the punctuation and spellings are British. The Alps, Richard Strauss’s Alpine Symphony and Environmentalism By Brooks Toliver Introduction After love and death, nature may well be European music’s preferred theme; it figures significantly in troubadour cansos, pastoral madrigals and operas, tone poems, impressionistic preludes, and elsewhere. In light of this it is puzzling how seldom actual nature is invoked in musical discourse. Composers—Richard Strauss among them—have been known to seek out nature in the manner of landscape painters, but there is no similar tradition among the critics, who ground nature-music and their judgments of it not in nature but in other music and criticism. When confronted with the vivid imagery of Strauss’s Alpine Symphony (1915), contemporaries wrote primarily of the aesthetics of vivid imagery, relegating the images themselves to the level of anecdote. Musicologists are quite adept at exploring the relationship of works to cultural constructions of nature, but relatively few have brought real environments into the discussion of canonical music. There has as yet been no serious consideration of how the Alps might be critical to an appreciation of the Alpine Symphony, nor has anyone theorized what the consequences of the Alpine Symphony might be for the Alps. Surely it is worth asking whether it metaphorically embodies sustaining or destructive relationships to the environment it represents, if it respects or disrespects nonhuman nature, and if love of nature is contingent on a symbolic domination of it, to name just three questions.

  • Listening Guide: Richard Strauss' Symphonic Poem Don Juan 1
    Listening Guide: Richard Strauss’ Symphonic Poem Don Juan 1. Strauss’ Don Juan is a hugely exciting piece with which to open a program. It is approximately 17 min. long, and can be enjoyed simply for its energy, its recurring dominant melodies, its ever-shifting moods and its remarkable orchestration. If you have only a little time to preview this piece, just keep these qualities in mind and listen to one of the more popular performances that have been uploaded to YouTube. 2. Of course, I urge you to take the next step in preview listening by remembering Deb Shuster’s definitions of “program music” and of “symphonic poem.” • Program music: A musical composition that aims to portray in musical terms the events, characters &/or scenes that usually originate in a poem or a story. In this case, Strauss drew upon the story of Don Juan, which is a tale of a fictitious character, whose amorous adventures, his larger than life energy, and his indifference to societal norms made him the hero-villain of numerous plays, novels, and poems from the 1660’s to the 1900’s. Strauss draws on a version of Don Juan by Hungarian /Austrian/German author Nikolaus Lenau, written in 1844. Lenau’s Don Juan is more of a philosopher living a disillusioned, aimless, and unsatisfying life. He has many amorous adventures in a search a for meaning and perfect beauty, but he finally realizes that he has harmed many and that his searching may be futile. In a duel with the brother or father of one his former lovers, he drops his sword and embraces death.

  • Richard Strauss' Eine Alpensinfonie
    Richard Strauss’ Eine Alpensinfonie: A Culmination and Rejection of Nineteenth Century Philosophical Influences Chloe Tula MUSI 551 Dr. Bailey November 18, 2016 !1 ABSTRACT The goal of this paper is two-fold: on one hand, exploring how Alpensinfonie both challenges and stays true to traditional symphonic idioms, and on the other, examining how it fits into Strauss’s compositional career, personal religious journey, and the greater landscape of early 20th century leanings towards modernism. This paper is part analysis, part biography, and part historical analysis. Strauss clearly had a unique (and changing) perspective on Friedrich Nietzsche’s writings, and this often drew sharp contradictions in his life; one can view evidence of how this plays into Alpensinfonie, especially when contrasted against Zarathustra (1896), which shares many motives with Alpensinfonie (which, coincidentally, was sketched out as early as 1899, before Strauss’s operatic career took off). While Un Alpensinfonie is not his definitive - and far from his final - work, it is an important landmark in Strauss’s ever-changing compositional perspective. In Un Alpensinfonie, Strauss overturns norms of the early twentieth century by constructing an intense, one-movement symphony that all but replaces lofty reverence of deity figures with a more universal reverence of nature, adding to the collection of earth- conscious masterpieces (e.g. Rite of Spring, La Mer, The Planets for instance) that inspired a irreversible large-scale shift to programmatic and agnostic-leaning music in the European modernist movement to follow. INTRODUCTION Richard Strauss’ final tone poem, Un Alpensinfonie (An Alpine Symphony) is largely overlooked in the analyses of his tone poems.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Carolina Digital Repository Richard Strauss’s Eine Alpensinfonie: An Analysis of Origins, Topics, and Symphonic Characteristics Jonathan Minnick Honors Thesis, Music Department University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: _____________________ Adviser: Prof. Andrea Bohlman Reader: Prof. Cora Palfy Reader: Prof. Cherie Ndaliko 2 PREFACE This thesis addresses Richard Strauss’s Eine Alpensinfonie’s unsettled program and assesses multiple accounts of the portrayal of the program and the evidence provided by each. In addition, I explore the ideas of landscape in relation to Eine Alpensinfonie and how Strauss manages the alpine landscape as played out through his music. This exploration is substantiated by a thorough melodic analysis of the piece, which has organized themes hierarchically and given them titles based on their arrangement, style, and position within the piece. There are multiple questions that this thesis addresses in relation to the program and the thematic material of Eine Alpensinfonie. Numerous Strauss scholars have provided suggestions on how the program could be interpreted, though there has not been a definite answer to the question of what the program is for this piece of music. The question that I ask is what are some of the different assertions made about the program of Eine Alpensinfonie and do they hold up to critical analysis of other evidence found throughout my own research. The thematic material in the piece has been analyzed thoroughly by Rainer Bayreuther in his comprehensive work on Eine Alpensinfonie, though I am adding to what he has already generated.

  • May, 2020 No. 1941 Subscription (Program B) Richard Strauss (1864
    May, 2020 ◎No. 1941 Subscription (Program B) ◎ ■Richard Strauss (1864–1949) ■Eine Alpensinfonie Op. 64 (50') Richard Strauss’s Eine Alpensinfonie (An Alpine Symphony), Op. 64 was composed between 1911 and 1915 (Strauss completed the orchestration on February 8, 1915). The first performance took place in Berlin on October 28, 1915, with Strauss conducting Hofkapelle Dresden (today’s Staatskapelle Dresden). The piece is one of Strauss’s largest orchestral works, scored for an orchestra of an immense size, even requiring an offstage ensemble consisting of twelve French horns, two trumpets, and two trombones. Since the creation of his first tone poem Aus Italien (From Italy), Op. 16 in 1886, Strauss composed such works with a steady pace, amounting to a total of ten pieces by the time he finished his Eine Alpensinfonie. Many remain popular today and are frequently included in the programs of professional orchestras worldwide. Among his tone poems are Tod und Verklärung (Death and Transfiguration), Op. 24 (1889), Also sprach Zarathustra (Thus Spoke Zarathustra), Op.30 (1896), and Ein Heldenleben (A Hero’s Life), Op. 40 (1898). After completing Eine Alpensifonie, however, Strauss lost interest in tone poems and began concentrating on operas. Strauss’s Eine Alpensinfonie reflects his enthusiastic feelings towards nature. Strauss liked the mountains in particular; he even built a house in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Bavaria, where he could enjoy the stunning view of the Alps. The composition, however, is much more than a simple depiction of an experience in the mountains. The tone poem can be traced back to a draft of an incomplete composition Strauss wrote in 1899.
