    Nineteenth-Century Music Review, 13 (2016), pp 3–9. © Cambridge University Press, 2016 doi:10.1017/S1479409815000488 Introduction Schubert Familiar and Unfamiliar: Continuing Conversations Lorraine Byrne Bodley Maynooth University Email: [email protected] James William Sobaskie Mississippi State University Email: [email protected] Two decades ago, the bicentenary celebrations of Franz Schubert’s birth in Duisberg, Graz, Oxford, Paris and Vienna confirmed that a warm spirit of collegiality, one rare among musicians today, had arisen and begun to flourish. Perhaps tired by the irresolvable controversy regarding Schubert’s sexuality, or taken with the newly emerging portrait of the composer and his art, many embraced the collaborative process of developing that image, engaging in cordial conversation regarding their shared fascination in print, in public and in private. The result was a burgeoning of literature in the field of Schubert studies, evidenced and furthered by the founding of five Schubert-centred journals, 1 including Cahiers Franz Schubert: Revue de musique classique et romantique, the 2 3 4 Schubert-Jahrbuch, The Schubertian, Schubert durch die Brille and Schubert: 5 Perspektiven. The wealth of research published in these and other journals has greatly enhanced our understanding of Schubert’s social circle, addressed histor- ical and biographical issues, drawn attention to neglected repertoire and changed 1 Cahiers Franz Schubert: Revue de musique classique et romantique 1–17 (Paris: Societé Franz Schubert, 1992–2009), edited by Xavier Hascher. 2 Schubert–Jahrbuch (Duisberg: Deutsche Schubert-Gesellschaft, 1996–), edited by Christiane Schumann. 3 The Schubertian (Leeds: Schubert Institute [UK], 1996–) edited by Crawford Howie. 4 Schubert durch die Brille (Vienna [1988/89,vols.1–3], then Tutzing [1990–2003,vols.4–30]: Internationales Franz Schubert Institut, 1988–2003), edited by Ernst Hilmar.

The composer spent the first two decades of his life here, became a professional musician in this city and absorbed here the impulses and ideas of the Enlightenment that shaped his later creative output, too. To this extent, it is logical that Bonn is preparing to celebrate Beethoven with a kind of “Cultural Capital Year” to mark his 250th birthday. In this special year, opportunities have been cre- ated in abundance to engage with the “great mogul,” as Haydn called him. There is still more to be discovered in his music, as in his life, too. In this sense, a symposium that approaches the phenomenon of Beethoven from the music-medicine perspective represents an additional and necessary enrichment of the anni- versary year. When I began my tenure as artistic director of the Beethoven- feste Bonn in 2014, I set out to bring forth something that was always new, special and interdisciplinary.

The remarkable counter-tenor Cencic, who dedicates himself GEORGE FRIDERIC HANDEL to the revival and performance of the music of the 18th century, demonstrates once more that Baroque singing can be both technically brilliant and at the same time modern and emotionally engaging. His enchanting staging of Arminio is the fulminant revival of the heroic story of Arminio and Tusnelda, based on historical events during the Varus Battle in which the Germans under the leadership of Cherusci chieftain Arminius stopped the Roman conquests in Germania. When premiered in 1737 at London’s Covent Garden, Arminio strangely Conductor George Petrou received only six performances, despite being praised as “a miracle” Orchestra Armonia Atenea and “in every respect excellent and vastly pleasing” by contemporaries. Stage Director Max Emanuel Cencic Handel’s opera fell into oblivion– until Cencic put it into the limelight at the Handel festival in Karlsruhe, resulting in the “rehabilitation of Arminio Max Emanuel Cencic the piece” (FAZ). Tusnelda Lauren Snouffer Cencic’s production of Arminio, which created a furore when Segeste Pavel Kudinov performed at the Theater an der Wien, features the ensemble Armonia Varo Juan Sancho Atenea under the baton of George Petrou and stars the stage director in the leading role: “Cencic is not only as counter-tenor but also as Sigismondo Aleksandra Kubas-Kruk stage director at the peak of his success” (Süddeutsche Zeitung).
