Dynamicsanddissonance: Theimpliedharmonictheoryof
Intégral 30 (2016) pp. 67–80 Dynamics and Dissonance: The Implied Harmonic Theory of J. J. Quantz by Evan Jones Abstract. Chapter 17, Section 6 of Quantz’s Versuch einer Anweisung die Flöte traver- siere zu spielen (1752) includes a short original composition entitled “Affettuoso di molto.” This piece features an unprecedented variety of dynamic markings, alternat- ing abruptly from loud to soft extremes and utilizing every intermediate gradation. Quantz’s discussion of this example provides an analytic context for the dynamic markings in the score: specific levels of relative amplitude are prescribed for particu- lar classes of harmonic events, depending on their relative dissonance. Quantz’s cat- egories anticipate Kirnberger’s distinction between essential and nonessential dis- sonance and closely coincide with even later conceptions as indicated by the various chords’ spans on the Oettingen–Riemann Tonnetz and on David Temperley’s “line of fifths.” The discovery of a striking degree of agreement between Quantz’s prescrip- tions for performance and more recent theoretical models offers a valuable perspec- tive on eighteenth-century musical intuitions and suggests that today’s intuitions might not be very different. Keywords and phrases: Quantz, Versuch, Affettuoso di molto, thoroughbass, disso- nance, dynamics, Kirnberger, Temperley, line of fifths, Tonnetz. 1. Dynamic Markings in Quantz’s ing.

Johann Joachim Quantz
Johann Joachim Quantz Portrait by an unknown 18th-century artist An account of his life taken largely from his autobiography published in 1754–5 Greg Dikmans Johann Joachim Quantz (1697–1773) Quantz was a flute player and composer at royal courts, writer on music and flute maker, and one of the most famous musicians of his day. His autobiography, published in F.W. Marpurg’s Historisch-kritische Beyträge (1754– 5), is the principal source of information on his life. It briefly describes his early years and then focuses on his activities in Dresden (1716–41), his Grand Tour (1724– 27) and his work at the court of Frederick the Great in Berlin and Potsdam (from 1741). Quantz was born in the village Oberscheden in the province of Hannover (northwestern Germany) on 30 January 1697. His father was a blacksmith. At the age of 11, after being orphaned, he began an apprenticeship (1708–13) with his uncle Justus Quantz, a town musician in Merseburg. Quantz writes: I wanted to be nothing but a musician. In August … I went to Merseburg to begin my apprenticeship with the former town-musician, Justus Quantz. … The first instrument which I had to learn was the violin, for which I also seemed to have the greatest liking and ability. Thereon followed the oboe and the trumpet. During my years as an apprentice I worked hardest on these three instruments. Merseburg Matthäus Merian While still an apprentice Quantz also arranged to have keyboard lessons: (1593–1650) Due to my own choosing, I took some lessons at this time on the clavier, which I was not required to learn, from a relative of mine, the organist Kiesewetter. -

John Stanley a Miracle of Art and Nature
John Stanley, “A Miracle of Art and Nature”: The Role of Disability in the Life and Career of a Blind Eighteenth-Century Musician by John Richard Prescott Doctor of Philosophy in Music in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Davitt Moroney, Chair Professor James Davies Professor Susan Schweik Fall 2011 Abstract John Stanley, “A Miracle of Art and Nature”: The Role of Disability in the Life and Career of a Blind Eighteenth-Century Musician by John Richard Prescott Doctor of Philosophy in Music University of California, Berkeley Professor Davitt Moroney, Chair This dissertation explores the life and career of John Stanley, an eighteenth-century blind organist, composer, conductor and impresario. Most historians of blindness discuss Stanley but merely repeat biographical material without adding any particular insights relating to his blindness. As for twentieth-century musicologists, they have largely ignored Stanley’s blindness. The conclusion is that Stanley’s blindness, despite being present in most of his reception, is not treated as a defining factor. This study pursues new questions about Stanley’s blindness. His disability is given pride of place, and perspectives from the fields of disability studies and minority studies are central to the work. A biographical sketch precedes a discussion of the role of Stanley’s blindness in his reception. The central role of Stanley’s amanuensis and sister-in-law, Anne Arlond, leads to a discussion of issues of gender, and the general invisibility of caregivers. Chapter 2 explores those aspects of Stanley’s life that required an engagement with literate music. -

Accademia Arcadia MUSIC FOR A PRUSSIAN KING Friday 23 September 6pm, Salon Presented by Melbourne Recital Centre and Accademia Arcadia ARTISTS Greg Dikmans, Quantz flute Lucinda Moon, baroque violin Josephine Vains, baroque cello Jacqueline Ogeil, Christofori pianoforte PROGRAM FREDERICK II (THE GREAT) (1712–1786) Sonata in E minor for flute and cembalo Grave – Allegro assai – Presto JOHANN JOACHIM QUANTZ (1697–1773) Sonata in E minor for flute, violin and cembalo, QV 2:21 Adagio – Allegro – Gratioso – Vivace FRANZ BENDA (1709–1786) Sonata per il Violino Solo et Cembalo col Violoncello in G Adagio – Allegretto – Presto CARL PHILIPP EMANUEL BACH (1714–1788) Sonata in A minor for flute, violin and bass, Wq 148 Allegretto – Adagio – Allegro assai ABOUT THE MUSIC No other statesman of his time did so much to promote music at court than Frederick the Great. During his years in Ruppin and Rheinsberg as Crown Prince, Frederick had already assembled a small chamber orchestra. The cultural life at the Prussian court was to receive an entirely new significance after Frederick’s accession to the throne in Berlin in 1740. Within a short time, Berlin’s musical life began to flower thanks to the young king’s decision to construct an opera house and to engage outstanding instrumentalists, singers and conductors. As a compensation for the demanding affairs of state, the Prussian king enjoyed playing and composing for the flute in a style closely following that of histeacher Johann Joachim Quantz. Quantz called this the mixed style, one that combined the German style with the bestelements of the Italian and French national styles. -

La difusió de la seva obra, difusió feta a través d'edicions, audicions i discos, presenta primordialment peces del repertori instrumental. No es pot dir encara que la figura d'Antoni Soler com a compositor sigui prou coneguda. la seva obra instrumental conservada i catalogada fins ara, és probablement inco11Jpleta. A més, Soler té una altra creació, la coral , que sobrepassa en el doble la quantitat de la instrumental. D'aquesta producció coral, avui només se n'han divulgat algunes peces, massa poques per poder-ne fer Un judici raonable. S'ha d'esperar que, amb els anys, el treball pacient dels investiga dors vagi posant en partitura intel·ligible les particel·les de cada una de les composicions corals sortides de la ploma d'Antoni Soler. El treball dels inves tigadors farà també possible una millor apreciació de l'obra de Soler a través de la interpretació viva de la seva música coral. Partitura i interpretació viva, dues condicions necessàries per poder aprofundir en el judici i la crítica dè l'obra de qualsevol compositor L'OBRA MUSICAL D'ANTONI SOLER L'obra musical del pare Soler és copiosa, cosa sorprenent si és té en compte que ell va morir prematurament als 54 anys. Com ja s'ha dit, la seva obra és coneguda sobretot en la part instrumental: més d'un centenar de Sonates per a instrument de tecla; algunes peces per a orgue; sis Concerts per a dos orgues; i sis Quintets per a corda i tecla. -

The Eminent Pedagogue Johann Joachim Quantz As Instructor Of
Kulturgeschichte Preuûens - Colloquien 6 (2018) Walter Kurt Kreyszig The Eminent Pedagogue Johann Joachim Quantz as Instructor of Frederick the Great During the Years 1728-1741: The Solfeggi, the Versuch einer Anweisung die Flöte traversière zu spielen, and the Capricen, Fantasien und Anfangsstücke of Quantz, the Flötenbuch of Frederick the Great and Quantz, and the Achtundzwanzig Variationen über die Arie "Ich schlief, da träumte mir" of Quantz (QV 1:98) Abstract Johann Joachim Quantz (1697-1773), the flute instructor of Frederick the Great (1712-1786), played a seminal role in the development of the Prussian Court Music, during its formative years between 1713 and 1806. As a result of his lifetime appointment to the Court of Potsdam in 1741 by King Frederick the Great, Quantz was involved in numerous facets of the cultural endeavors at the Court, including his contributions to composition, performance and organology. Nowhere was his presence more acutely felt than in his formulation of music-pedagogical materials an activity where his knowledge as a preminent pedagogue and his skills as a composer, organologist and performer fused together in most astounding fashion. Quantz's effectiveness in his teaching of his most eminent student, Frederick the Great, is fully borne out in a number of documents, including the Solfeggi, the Versuch, the Caprices, Fantasien und Anfangsstücke, and the Achtundzwanzig Variationen über die Arie "Ich schlief, da träumte mir". While each document touches on different aspects of the musical discipline, these sources vividly underscore the intersection between musica theorica and musica practica and as such provide testimony of Johann Joachim Quantz as a genuine musicus. -
