  • JOHANNES BRAHMS Born May 7, 1833 in Hamburg; Died April 3, 1897 in Vienna
    JOHANNES BRAHMS Born May 7, 1833 in Hamburg; died April 3, 1897 in Vienna. Tragic Overture, Opus 81 (1880) PREMIERE OF WORK: Vienna, December 20, 1880 Vienna Philharmonic Hans Richter, conductor APPROXIMATE DURATION: 13 minutes INSTRUMENTATION: piccolo, two flutes, two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons, four horns, two trumpets, three trombones, tuba, timpani and strings Many of Brahms’ works were produced in pairs: Piano Sonatas, Opus 1 and Opus 2; Piano Quartets, Opus 25 and Opus 26; String Quartets, Opus 51; Clarinet Sonatas, Opus 120; even the first two Symphonies, the sets of Liebeslieder Waltzes and the Serenades. These twin pieces seem to have been the result of a surfeit of material — as Brahms was working out his ideas for a composition in a particular genre, he produced enough material to spin off a second work of similar type. Though the two orchestral overtures of 1880, Academic Festival and Tragic, were also written in tandem, they have about them more the quality of complementary balance than of continuity. Academic Festival is bright in mood and lighthearted in its musical treatment of some favorite German student drinking songs. The Tragic Overture, on the other hand, is somber and darkly heroic. Of them, Brahms wrote to his biographer Max Kalbeck, “One overture laughs, the other weeps.” And further, to his friend and publisher, Fritz Simrock, “Having composed this jolly Academic Festival Overture, I could not refuse my melancholy nature the satisfaction of composing an overture for a tragedy.” Brahms never gave any additional clues to the nature of the Tragic Overture. The Tragic Overture is comparable in form and expression to the first movement of a symphony.

  • Tragic Overture Johannes Brahms (1833 – 1897)
    ASO Program Notes Tragic Overture Johannes Brahms (1833 – 1897) During the summer of 1880 Brahms composed two of his most famous works, reminiscent of the two faces of the thespian mask. The first of these was the Academic Festival Overture , a playful, rousing medley of student songs, and the other the Tragic Overture . In a letter to a friend, Brahms stated that “one laughs and the other cries.” One biographer suggests that Brahms was fascinated by the Faust legend and that the Tragic Overture was written as the opening for a production of Goethe’s Faust in Vienna. Brahms himself insisted, however, that he had no particular tragedy in mind when he composed the piece. His intention as a composer was not to tell a story but to elicit emotion on the part of his audience. It appears that his other goal was to balance the mood of his earlier piece. Since it appears that he intended the pieces to complement each other, it is strange that the two pieces almost never appear on the same program. In the original sketches which Brahms worked out in a notebook, notations at the end of the work suggest that it was intended as the first movement of a symphony. There is no known Brahms Symphony in D minor, although Brahms reportedly had attempted to write one earlier. That particular creative process was apparently interrupted by the tragic death of Brahms’ friend and mentor, Schumann. The work comprises three main sections, all in the key of D minor, as the opening bare theme expands into three main subjects.

  • Ein Deutsches Requiem
    San Francisco Lyric Chorus Robert Gurney, Music Director Johannes Brahms EIN DEUTscHes REQUIem Jennifer Brody, Soprano Boyd Jarrell, Bass David Hatt, Organ Allen Biggs, Timpani Novello Quartet Saturday, August 27, 8 pm & Sunday, August 28, 5 pm Trinity Episcopal Church Bush & Gough Streets San Francisco, California San Francisco Lyric Chorus Board of Directors Helene Whitson, President Anne Brenneis, Secretary Bill Whitson, Treasurer Anna Barr, Director Sophie Henry, Director Catherine Lewis, Director Wylie Sheldon, Director Welcome to the Summer 005 Concert of the San Francisco Lyric Chorus. Since its formation in 1995, the Chorus has offered diverse and innovative music to the community through a gathering of singers who believe in a commonality of spirit and sharing. The début concert featured music by Gabriel Fauré and Louis Vierne. The Chorus has been involved in several premieres, including Bay Area composer Brad Osness’ Lamentations, Ohio composer Robert Witt’s Four Motets to the Blessed Virgin Mary (West Coast premiere), New York composer William Hawley’s The Snow That Never Drifts (San Francisco premiere), and San Francisco composer Kirke Mechem’s Christmas the Morn, Blessed Are They, and To Music (San Francisco premieres). Our 004-005 musical year has been very exciting. In Fall 004, we took a wonderful journey through French choral history from the 15th century to the 0th century, presenting Choral Music of France and featuring choral jewels by Guillaume Dufay, Josquin des Pres, Marc-Antoine Charpentier, Gabriel Fauré, César Franck, Francis Poulenc, Camille Saint-Saëns, Hector Berlioz and Arthur Honegger. For our Spring 005 program, we explored the music of two Austrian master composers, presenting Joseph Haydn’s joyous Harmoniemesse, the last major composition of this graceful and ebullient composer, and Anton Bruckner’s rarely performed Mass No.
