  • 'Dream Job: Next Exit?'
    Understanding Bach, 9, 9–24 © Bach Network UK 2014 ‘Dream Job: Next Exit?’: A Comparative Examination of Selected Career Choices by J. S. Bach and J. F. Fasch BARBARA M. REUL Much has been written about J. S. Bach’s climb up the career ladder from church musician and Kapellmeister in Thuringia to securing the prestigious Thomaskantorat in Leipzig.1 Why was the latter position so attractive to Bach and ‘with him the highest-ranking German Kapellmeister of his generation (Telemann and Graupner)’? After all, had their application been successful ‘these directors of famous court orchestras [would have been required to] end their working relationships with professional musicians [take up employment] at a civic school for boys and [wear] “a dusty Cantor frock”’, as Michael Maul noted recently.2 There was another important German-born contemporary of J. S. Bach, who had made the town’s shortlist in July 1722—Johann Friedrich Fasch (1688–1758). Like Georg Philipp Telemann (1681–1767), civic music director of Hamburg, and Christoph Graupner (1683–1760), Kapellmeister at the court of Hessen-Darmstadt, Fasch eventually withdrew his application, in favour of continuing as the newly- appointed Kapellmeister of Anhalt-Zerbst. In contrast, Bach, who was based in nearby Anhalt-Köthen, had apparently shown no interest in this particular vacancy across the river Elbe. In this article I will assess the two composers’ positions at three points in their professional careers: in 1710, when Fasch left Leipzig and went in search of a career, while Bach settled down in Weimar; in 1722, when the position of Thomaskantor became vacant, and both Fasch and Bach were potential candidates to replace Johann Kuhnau; and in 1730, when they were forced to re-evaluate their respective long-term career choices.

  • The Orchestra
    Lesson: THE ORCHESTRA Objective: Students will identify the structure of the orchestra including the seating, arrangement, and four instrument families. Materials: Orchestra worksheet treasure hunt (included in this packet) LESSON Like a ship, the symphony orchestra is a large vessel made up of many small parts. Each part has its own special and important purpose, and it took more than three centuries for the symphony to finally take on its current shape. There are four families of instruments in the symphony orchestra: Strings, Woodwinds, Brass, and Percussion. These families of instruments are very different from one another in the way that they sound and the way that they are played. This makes seating arrangements very important! EXERCISE 1: “Can you name the instruments in each family?’’ Preface: Students decide which instruments belong to a particular family. Have students name off each family to review: A) Strings: Violin, Viola, Cello, Bass, Harp B) Woodwinds: Flute, Oboe, Clarinet, Bassoon (Saxophone is a woodwind, but not typically found in the orchestra) C) Brass: Trumpet, French Horn, Trombone, Tuba (Baritone is brass, but also not typically found in the orchestra) D) Percussion: Cymbals, Timpani, Bass Drum, Snare Drum, Xylophone, Piano (anything that makes a sound when struck, scraped, or shaken) A Special Thanks to our Young People’s Concert Sponsors EXERCISE 2: Treasure Hunt Young Mozart has lost his favorite conducting baton and cannot seem to find it anywhere. He has been given a clue that says that the baton can be found, stuck in the tuba. But Teachers: This where does the tuba sit? Help Mozart figure out where members of the orchestra sit so he handout is available can get his baton back.
