REPRESENTED BY WM. KNABE & CO. 439 FIFTH AVENUE. NEW YORK CITY 1 Symphony in G major, "Oxford'' Josef Haydn (Born at Rohrau, Lower Austria, March 31 (?), 1732; died at Vienna, May 31, 1809.) " " This symphony is marked Letter Q in the catalogue of the London Philharmonic Society; No. 9 in the Peters edition; No. 2 in the edition of Rieter-Biedermann; No. 31 in Sieber's edition; No. 11 in La Due's; No. 20 in the Library of the Paris Conservatory. It is called the "Oxford" because it was performed at the second concert (July 7, 1791) of the three given while Haydn was at Oxford, England, to receive his degree of Mus. Doc. from the University. The concert began at 7 p.m. The program was a long one. Han- del's overture to "Samson"; aria, "So much Beauty," from Handel's "Esther," sung by Master Mutlow;* a violoncello concerto played by Mr. Sperati; aria, "Quel desir che amor un dl," by Storace, sung by Sgra. Storace; a chorus from Handel's "Alexander's Feast," made up the first part. The second opened with a symphony (MS.) by Haydn, •'expressly intended for this concert." An aria from Handel's "Saul," sung by Sig. David; a violin concerto by Master Clement and played by the youthful composer; Mengozzi's aria, "Donna chi vuol vedere," sung by Mr. Kelly; Purcell's "From Silent Shades and the Elysium Graves," sung by Sgra. Storace; the hailstone chorus from Handel's "Israel in Egypt"; and a glee sung by Kelly, Webb, and Bellamy, made up the second part. There was an attempt to shorten this part, but the students, "gentlemen of the square cap," would not hear of it. The third part included an aria, "Whither, my Love," sung by Sgra. Storace; a concertante by Pleyel, played by Cramer, Dance, Patria, Sperati; an aria by Sarti, sung by Sig. David; Handel's "Let * This Oxford singing-boy took the place of the famous and beautiful soprano, Anna Maria Crouch (1763- 1805), who fell dangerously sick at Henley on her way to Oxford. Anna Selina Storace (1 766-181 7) was the daughter of an Italian double-bass player at London and the sister of Stephen Storace, the composer. She studied in London, and then at Venice with Sacchini. She sang in Italy from 1780 to 1782, went to Vienna in 1784, created there the part of Susanna in Mozart's "Marriage of Figaro" (1786), returned to London and left the stage in 1808. Giacomo David (born Davide), born at Presezzo in 1750, was a distinguished tenor in Italy as early as 1770. He sang for the last time in Genoa in 181 1, and died at Bergamo in 1830. Michael Kelly, composer, singer, and manager, was born at Dublin in 1762. He studied there and at Naples. He sang in Italy and at Vienna, created the parts of Don Basilio and Don Curzio in Mozart's "Marriage of Figaro." He died at Margate in 1826. His "Reminiscences" (1826), a book of most entertaining gossip, is said to have been written by Theodore Hook. Clement afterward became a celebrated virtuoso, and was the first to play Beethoven's violin concerto. The Bellamy who took part in the glee was probably Richard Bel- lamy (1743-1813), one of the best basses of his day and a composer of church music, glees, and other works.

Storace; and a chorus from the same oratorio. In spite of the words "expressly intended for this concert," it is not probable that this symphony was composed for the occasion, but we do not know whether it had been played before in public. Leopold Schmidt, in his "Joseph Haydn" (Berlin, 1898), says that the sym- phony had been played, and that the trumpets and drums were added later by the composer, but he cites no authority for this statement. Some say it was probably written about 1788. We are told that Haydn intended to have the work, "one of his favorite compositions," per- formed at the first Oxford concert, July 6, but he arrived too late for rehearsal, and one that was already familiar was played. Cramer was the "leader," Dr. Hayes was the chief conductor. Haydn sat on the organ bench, and it is said indicated the tempi. At the rehearsal for the second concert Haydn conducted the "Oxford" symphony. The Morning Chronicle in its report said "a more wonderful composition never was heard.

  • Symposium Records Cd 1109 Adolf Busch
    SYMPOSIUM RECORDS CD 1109 The Great Violinists – Volume 4 ADOLF BUSCH (1891-1952) This compact disc documents the early instrumental records of the greatest German-born musician of this century. Adolf Busch was a legendary violinist as well as a composer, organiser of chamber orchestras, founder of festivals, talented amateur painter and moving spirit of three ensembles: the Busch Quartet, the Busch Trio and the Busch/Serkin Duo. He was also a great man, who almost alone among German gentile musicians stood out against Hitler. His concerts between the wars inspired a generation of music-lovers and musicians; and his influence continued after his death through the Marlboro Festival in Vermont, which he founded in 1950. His associate and son-in-law, Rudolf Serkin (1903-1991) maintained it until his own death, and it is still going strong. Busch's importance as a fiddler was all the greater, because he was the last glory of the short-lived German school; Georg Kulenkampff predeceased him and Hitler's decade smashed the edifice built up by men like Joseph Joachim and Carl Flesch. Adolf Busch's career was interrupted by two wars; and his decision to boycott his native country in 1933, when he could have stayed and prospered as others did, further fractured the continuity of his life. That one action made him an exile, cost him the precious cultural nourishment of his native land and deprived him of his most devoted audience. Five years later, he renounced all his concerts in Italy in protest at Mussolini's anti-semitic laws.

We all think we know plenty about the composer of the Ofamous G minor Violin Concerto. All the more surprising, then, that in fact we know very little about the composer’s life, as very little has actually been written about him. The first biography of Max Bruch did not appear until the 1980s! Max Bruch was born in Cologne in 1838, and died in Berlin-Friedenau in 1920. In the course of a long life, he witnessed more major upheavals in the history of music than most other composers. When Bruch was a child, musical life was dom in ated by the works of Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy, Frédéric Chopin, Gioacchino Rossini and Ludwig van Beethoven.

The firm soon expanded its program beyond the Institute, publishing books by celebrated academics from America and abroad. By midcentury, the two major pillars of Norton’s publishing program— trade books and college texts—were firmly established.
