ENJOY THE CONVENIENCE OF YOUR FILENE CHARGE BSO BSO/WCRB Musical Marathon Preview Party Even before this year's BSO/WCRB Musical Marathon weekend of 11, 12, and 13 March, Symphony Hall will ring with music and excitement on Tuesday, 1 March when the gala Marathon Preview Party takes place. There will be complimentary champagne, music, a cash bar, and a cocktail buffet. The focal point of the evening is set for 7: 15 p.m., when John Marion of Sotheby Parke Bernet will be the auctioneer on stage in Symphony Hall to offer a group of very special Marathon premiums, with Dick Flavin doing the introductions. The premiums cover a very wide range, from a new Baldwin spinet piano to a sixteen-foot touring canoe, Symphony Hall memorabilia (including a set of doors from the Huntington Avenue entrance!), signed posters, a twelve-foot Mollie Brown sailboat, and the twenty-volume Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians. Tickets for the party are $12.50 and can be obtained by calling the Marathon Office at (617) 266-1492, ext. 230. BSO and Pops Recording Honors The Hollywood Foreign Press Association has presented its annual Golden Globe Award in the category of Best Original Musical Score to John Williams for his film score for "E.T (the Extra-Terrestrial)." Mr. Williams has also been nominated for four Grammy awards for the same score, in the categories of Best Album of an Original Score Written for a Motion Picture or Television Special, Best Instrumental Composition (the "Flying Theme"), Best Arrangement (again for the "Flying Theme"), and Best Pop Instrumental Performance. Two Boston Symphony recordings have been nominated for Grammy awards in the category of Best Classical Performance by an Instrumental Soloist or Soloists with Orchestra: pianist Rudolf Serkin has been nominated for his performance of Beethoven's Fourth Piano Concerto with Seiji Ozawa and the BSO on Telarc, and concertmaster Joseph Silverstein has been nominated for his performance in Vivaldi's Pour Seasons also under the direction of Seiji Ozawa on Telarc. Gelbloom Scholarship Fund Concert A gala concert will be held on Friday, 4 March 1983 at 8 p.m. at the Longy School of Music in Cambridge to benefit the Gerald Gelbloom Scholarship Fund. Gerald Gelbloom was a violinist with the Boston Symphony Orchestra and the Boston Pops for twenty-one years until his unexpected death last June. Featured will be performances by Joseph Silverstein, Roman Totenberg, and members of the Boston Symphony Orchestra in music by Bach, Vivaldi, Mozart, and Beethoven. The performance will be followed by a wine-tasting and a reception. Tickets for this gala may be obtained by sending a tax- deductible contribution of $50 to the Gerald Gelbloom Scholarship Fund, Development Office, Symphony Hall, Boston, MA 02115. Silverstein Named to Utah Symphony Post The Board of the Utah Symphony has recently announced the appointment of BSO concertmaster Joseph Silverstein as artistic director of that orchestra effective 29 August 1983. The one-year appointment, which will not affect his BSO commitments for 1983-84, is renewable upon mutual consent, with the possibility that Silverstein will be named music director of the Utah Symphony beginning with the 1984-85 season. Silverstein has been a member of the BSO since 1955; he became concertmaster in 1962 and was named assistant conductor in 1971. He is also first violinist and music director of the Boston Symphony Chamber Players, chairman of the faculty of the Berkshire Music Center, and adjunct professor of music at Boston University. He also serves as music director of the Worcester Symphony and as principal guest conductor of the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra. 'A Walk Through the Ages' The Junior Council of the Boston Symphony Orchestra will present a special benefit program, "A Walk Through the Ages," featuring four BSO horn players: Daniel Katzen, Roger Kaza, Richard Sebring, and Jay Wadenpfuhl. This program, ranging from Renais- sance to modern music, and including works by Palestrina, Bach, Reicha, Hindemith, and Lowell Shaw, will be presented at the Harvard Club, 374 Commonwealth Avenue in Boston on Sunday, 27 February at 4:30 p.m. The musicians will comment briefly on the music being performed. Wine and cheese will be served. Tickets to this benefit concert are $25 (of which $15 is tax-deductible) or $10 for regular admission. All proceeds benefit the Boston Symphony Orchestra. For further information or reservations, please call the Junior Council at Symphony Hall, (617) 266-1492. Art Exhibits in the Cabot-Cahners Room Once again, a variety of Boston-area schools, museums, non-profit artists' organizations, and commercial galleries are displaying their work in the Cabot-Cahners Room. During the next several months, the following organizations will be represented: 1 7 January— 1 4 February Depot Square Artists 14 February— 6 March Danforth Museum 7 March— 13 March BSO/WCRB Musical Marathon 14 March— 11 April Clark Gallery 11 April—9 May Wenniger Graphics Symphony Hall Tours Guided tours of Symphony Hall are available weekdays until the end of the Pops season in mid-July.

A large body of published research exists regarding the physiology of breathing, the acoustics of singing, and solutions for specific vocal faults. There is similarly a growing body of research into the system of voice classification and repertoire assignment. This paper shall reexamine this research in light of baritenor voices. After establishing the general parameters of healthy vocal technique through appoggio, the various tenor, baritone, and bass Fächer will be studied to establish norms of vocal criteria such as range, timbre, tessitura, and registration for each Fach. The study of these Fächer includes examinations of the historical singers for whom the repertoire was created and how those roles are cast by opera companies in modern times. The specific examination of baritenors follows the same format by examining current and

  • Paris, 1918-45
    un :al Chapter II a nd or Paris , 1918-45 ,-e ed MARK D EVOTO l.S. as es. 21 March 1918 was the first day of spring. T o celebrate it, the German he army, hoping to break a stalemate that had lasted more than three tat years, attacked along the western front in Flanders, pushing back the nv allied armies within a few days to a point where Paris was within reach an oflong-range cannon. When Claude Debussy, who died on 25 M arch, was buried three days later in the Pere-Laehaise Cemetery in Paris, nobody lingered for eulogies. The critic Louis Laloy wrote some years later: B. Th<' sky was overcast. There was a rumbling in the distance. \Vas it a storm, the explosion of a shell, or the guns atrhe front? Along the wide avenues the only traffic consisted of militarr trucks; people on the pavements pressed ahead hurriedly ... The shopkeepers questioned each other at their doors and glanced at the streamers on the wreaths. 'II parait que c'ctait un musicicn,' they said. 1 Fortified by the surrender of the Russians on the eastern front, the spring offensive of 1918 in France was the last and most desperate gamble of the German empire-and it almost succeeded. But its failure was decisive by late summer, and the greatest war in history was over by November, leaving in its wake a continent transformed by social lb\ convulsion, economic ruin and a devastation of human spirit. The four-year struggle had exhausted not only armies but whole civiliza­ tions.

  • A Pictoral History of the Boston Music Hall and the Great Organ
    A PICTORIAL HISTORY OF THE BOSTON MUSIC HALL AND THE GREAT ORGAN by Ed Sampson, President, Methuen Memorial Music Hall, Inc. 2018 Few instruments in the history of pipe organs in America have had as long, or as distinguished, a career as the Boston Music Hall Organ. The first concert organ in the country, it remains today one of the outstanding organs in America. The need for a large and centrally-located concert hall for Boston was discussed at the annual meeting of the Harvard Musical Association, founded in 1837 (Henry White Pickering (1811-1898), President) on January 31, 1851. A "Music Hall Committee", comprised of members Robert East Apthorp (1812-1882), George Derby (1819-1874), John Sullivan Dwight (1813-1893), Charles Callahan Perkins (1822-1886), and Dr. Jabez Baxter Upham (1820- 1902), was appointed to address the matter. The Boston Music Hall was built in 1852 by the Boston Music-Hall Association, founded in 1851 (Jabez Baxter Upham, President) and by the Harvard Musical Association, that contributed $100,000 towards its construction. It stood in the center of a block that sloped downward from Tremont Street to Washington Street; and was between Winter Street on the south and Bromfield Street on the north. Almost entirely surrounded by other buildings, only glimpses of the hall's massive granite block foundation and plain brick walls could be seen. There were two entrances to the Music Hall: the Bumstead Place entrance, (named after Thomas Bumstead (1740-1828) a Boston coachmaker), off Tremont Street (later Hamilton Place) opposite the Park Street Church; 1 and the Central Place or Winter Place (later Music Hall Place) entrance off Winter Street.

  • 06 – Spinning the Record
    V: THE GOLDEN AGE, Part 2 The LP-45 boom becomes an explosion As mentioned in the previous chapter, the years 1940-1956 were so rich culturally that it is virtually impossible to describe it all in one chapter, and Americans of all economic and educational backgrounds had free or inexpensive access to music that was once only the prov- ince of the very wealthy. One should note that, in addition to the various innovations men- tioned previously, radio too was part of this free dissemination of the arts. The crown jewel of its epistle may have been Toscanini, but there were also the weekly Metropolitan Opera broadcasts sponsored by Texaco Oil, a commercial-free venue that would continue uninter- rupted until the 2003-04 season, when the company—no longer interested in promoting music that few of their customers listened to—allowed their contract to expire. And then there were two programs, independently sponsored, that brought classical, semi-classical and quasi- classical vocal music to listeners on a weekly basis, the Bell Telephone Hour and The Voice of Firestone. Both had somewhat middlebrow programming, yet they still brought such great singers as Maggie Teyte and Jussi Björling to thousands who would otherwise be unaware of their greatness. During the early LP era, too, “new” conductors (or, at least, conductors previously not known by the general public) were suddenly brought to the fore. As inventor of the LP, Co- lumbia was first, producing records by the New York Philharmonic’s new music director, Artur Rodzinski, as well as his replacement, the great Dmitri Mitropoulos (though, since the New York musicians didn’t “like” Mitropoulos, they rarely played their best for him); a re- markable Polish conductor, Paul Kletzki, in his first EMI recordings with Walter Legge’s newly-formed Philharmonia Orchestra; and the draconian Hungarian, Fritz Reiner, then the music director of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra.

  • Cohesion of Composer and Singer: the Female Singers of Poulenc
    COHESION OF COMPOSER AND SINGER: THE FEMALE SINGERS OF POULENC DOCUMENT Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Susan Joanne Musselman, B.M., M.M. ***** The Ohio State University 2007 Document Committee: J. Robin Rice, Adviser Approved by: Hilary Apfelstadt Wayne Redenbarger ________________________ Adviser Graduate Program in Music Copyright by Susan Joanne Musselman 2007 ABSTRACT Every artist’s works spring from an aspiring catalyst. One’s muses can range from a beloved city to a spectacular piece of music, or even a favorite time of year. Francis Poulenc’s inspiration for song-writing came from the high level of intimacy he had with his close friends. They provided the stimulation and encouragement needed for a lifetime of composition. There is a substantial amount of information about Francis Poulenc’s life and works available. We are fortunate to have access to his own writings, including a diary of his songs, an in-depth interview with a close friend, and a large collection of his correspondence with friends, fellow composers, and his singers. It is through these documents that we not only glean knowledge of this great composer, but also catch a glimpse of the musical accuracy Poulenc so desired in the performance of his songs. A certain amount of scandal surrounded Poulenc during his lifetime and even well after his passing. Many rumors existed involving his homosexuality and his relationships with other male musicians, as well as the possible fathering of a daughter. The primary goal of this document is not to unearth any hidden innuendos regarding his personal life, however, but to humanize the relationships that Poulenc had with so many of his singers.
