  • Preface and Acknowledgments
    PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This book is the extended form of six public lectures delivered in the Ernest Bloch Lecture Series from September 18 to October 23, 1989, in the Department of Music at the University of California at Berkeley. To my regret, the presentation of this expanded version, which for the most part I had finished by the end of 1992, is somewhat overdue, but not without good reason. For an American publication I found that I could not help but produce, if I may say so, a magnum opus, a summary of three decades of Bartók studies, thereby offering grateful, if belated, thanks to the University of California and to my colleagues and students at Berkeley. It was proba- bly the happiest time of my life: I had the honor not only of presenting the music of Béla Bartók but also, at a turning point in Bartók studies, of outlining the tasks awaiting future research on his oeuvre before the most resonant, expert audience I have ever met outside of my country, Hungary—the homeland of Bartók. Coming half a century after the death of the composer, this is the first book dedicated to the study of Bartók's compositional process to be based on the com- plete existing primary source material. Therefore, a great many things need to be accomplished simultaneously: a description of the sources (chapter 3) as well as the first reliable list of manuscripts (in the appendix); an extensive discussion of Bar- tók's sketches and drafts (chapters 4 and 7); an introduction to auxiliary research fields as for instance in paper studies (chapter 6).

  • The Correspondence Between Arnold Schoenberg and Universal Edition
    The Correspondence between Arnold Schoenberg and Universal Edition Katharina Bleier Wissenschaftszentrum Arnold Schönberg Universität für Musik und darstellende Kunst Wien Therese Muxeneder Arnold Schönberg Center, Wien ‘[…] publishers and authors cannot remain friends in the long run.’1 The first curator of Schoenberg’s archival legacy was the composer himself: throughout his life he remained an archivally gifted and visionary collector, the guardian of what is now considered an unparalleled heritage in the musical history of the last century. Its spectrum, ranging from compositions and philosophical-political, musical-aesthetic and literary-political writings, to paintings and drawings and finally to the invention of objects, illuminates a personality who as both man and artist resisted to the end the tendency to conform, a personality worth discovering not only for the indelible signature he left upon the music of his century. The Arnold Schönberg Center, established in 1998 in Vienna, is a unique repository of Schoenberg’s archival legacy2 and a cultural institution that is open to the public. The Schoenberg archive is one of the most renowned and comprehensive collections of works by a twentieth-century composer and promotes a broad spectrum of research. In addition to the archive, exhibition and concert facilities, the Center also houses the Arnold Schönberg Research Center (Wissenschaftszentrum Arnold Schönberg, Institut für Musikalische Stilforschung of the Universität für Musik und darstellende Kunst Wien). 19 ARCHIVAL NOTES Sources and Research from the Institute of Music, No. 1 (2016) © Fondazione Giorgio Cini, Venezia ISBN 9788896445136 | ISSN 2499‒832X KATHARINA BLEIER – THERESE MUXENEDER Activities at the Research Center are focused on the Viennese School, particularly in its role as a group that had a lasting influence on twentieth- century music throughout the world.

  • Undergrad Research Bean
    James Bean Undergraduate Research Award Submission Ground: for Four Players and Their Instruments is a piece of music written for flute, clarinet, violin, and violoncello. The facets of this piece that make it unique are those which may not have had any possibility of existence without the services provided by the University of Oregon Libraries. The material in this piece is based entirely upon the physical actions present in the making of music. For example, instead of asking a cellist to play a specific note (as Beethoven would), the directions in this piece are concerned with the placement, pressures and movements of each component of the physical process of playing that note (e.g. the cellist’s left hand on the fingerboard and the right hand holding the bow). Each of these components is separated, so as to make an ensemble (of 6 or more!) out of each player. The string instruments have separated the location, hand shape, pressure and movement of the left hand on the fingerboard. The wind instruments have their register, singing and articulation (the things controlled by the mouth and throat) and their fingers separated. The end result then, is a performative terrain where the sonic output is able to be both in continuous flux and effervescence, but also held together tightly in continuous relationship between players – while difference and variegation increases, so too does similarity and repetition of material. This compositional process enables the material to be compressed to the point that is has been nearly extinguished, but also to the point of such high pressure that it is omnipresent.

  • “Off to Mahagonny”
    “Off to Mahagonny” Kim Kowalke Kim Kowalke, President of the Kurt Weill Foundation for Music in New York Kim Kowalke, President of the Kurt Weill Foundation in New York, explains the history, reception, and performance issues of Aufstieg und Fall der Stadt Mahagonny [Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny]. Weill and Brecht’s “epic opera,” though less frequently performed than Die Dreigroschenoper, has nevertheless had an extraordinarily rich but problematic performance history. During Weill’s lifetime there was no definitive version of Mahagonny, with the so-called Paris, Berlin, and Vienna versions all being adaptations of either the Songspiel (1927) or the full-length opera (1930). Tell us about the performance history of Mahagonny during Weill’s lifetime. Kowalke: In Weill’s lifetime Mahagonny never had a chance to establish itself, largely because of the political situation. Universal Edition published a piano- vocal score prior to its première on 9 March 1930 in Leipzig with Gustav Brecher conducting. A few days later Maurice Abravanel conducted it in Kassel. That summer George Szell led it in Prague, and in October Wilhelm Steinberg conducted twelve performances in Frankfurt. By then, however, all the possibilities for the Berlin opera houses had fallen through. Even Klemperer declared it “immoral” and therefore too risky for the erstwhile adventurous Kroll. Finally Ernst Josef Aufricht, who had commercially produced both The Threepenny Opera and Happy End in Berlin, did it at the Kurfürstendamm Theatre. So its first production in Berlin wasn’t even at an opera house, but it did enjoy a run there of some fifty performances.

  • “Mahagonny” and Its Implications
    “Mahagonny” and its implications Nils Grosch “I also believe that, with a work like Mahagonny, we should not have the usual kind of premiere because in many cases a premiere at a Berlin opera house has proven very risky, and it would be similarly dangerous to direct the interest of the entire German press to a performance in the provinces.” Kurt Weill to Emil Hertzka, 2 August 1929 The decade following the end of the First World War was marked by immense social change which also had a major impact on cultural life. In 1927, an essay by Kurt Weill was published in which he writes about “shifts in musical composition”, which he viewed as the necessary consequence of the restructuring of audiences. Weill’s demands went far beyond the changes in musical concepts. They were equally concerned with the manner and conditions in which new works were to be presented to the public. The letters exchanged between Weill, Emil Hertzka and Hans Heinsheimer, excerpts of which are printed below, reveal how they struggled to find a suitable location for the first performance of Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny. The premiere finally took place on 9 March 1930 in Leipzig; it was one of the biggest theatre scandals of the century. Against the backdrop of the looming economic crisis and disturbed by riots orchestrated by the National Socialists, the performance toyed with reality in a manifest game of deception. The repercussions of the Leipzig premiere proved decisive for the fate of Mahagonny, but this was not because the work’s unprecedented nature and musical quality were acclaimed by critics and audience alike, nor was it due to the high aspirations of the Leipzig production.
