  • Textbook of Gregorian Chant
    TEXT BOOK OF GREGORIAN CHANT ACCORDING TO THE SOLESMES METHOD BY Dom Gregory SUNOL, 0. S. B., Monk of Montserrat TRANSLATED FROM THE SIXTH FRENCH EDITION WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY G. M. DURNFORD OBLATE OF SOLESHES. SOCIETY OF ST JOHN EVANGELIST D£SCLEE & Co Printers to the Holy See and the Sacred Coogr. of Rites TOURNAI (Belgium) PREFACE. Few words are necessary to introduce the present work to English speaking students of plainsong. Such a handbook has long been needed and is sure of its welcome. Neither the well- known Stanbrook Grammar of Plainsong nor Madame Ward's valuable school courses cover so much ground as Dom Gregory Suflol in his Spanish " Metodo ". The book first appeared in 1905, prefaced by a commendatory letter from Dom Andre Mocquereau, the famous director of the Solesmes School. Its author has many years of teaching experience behind him, as well as sound theoret- ical knowledge of his subject. His work has proved its popu- larity and practical usefulness by going through a number of editions in the original Spanish, besides being translated into French and German. Indeed by compressing the Solesmes teach- ing within the narrow limits of a general text book Dom Sufiol has rendered good service to the Gregorian cause. Not everyone has access to the monumental publications of Solesmes, the Mono- graphies gregoriennes or the Paleographie Musicale> and countless students will be glad to find the subject matter of this latter Work, especially the important seventh volume on Gregorian Rhythm, here summed up and analysed, while the extensive quotations from Dom Mocquereau's Nombre Musical gregorien, with which the Spanish author has enriched his later editions, will make them desirous of seeing this fascinating synthesis of the whole subject brought out in English.

  • Beethoven, Merryman, St. Pierre
    Beethoven - Merryman - St. Pierre Performed October 23, 1999 This evening's concert opens with two works which evoke different images of the sea and man's relationship to it: Beethoven's Meerestille und Glückliche Fahrt and Marjorie Merryman's Jonah. Beethoven: Meerestille und Glückliche Fahrt Meerestille and Glückliche Fahrt are two separate poems by Goethe but have always been published back to back and appear to provide a continuous narrative. Their juxtaposition of contrasting elements has inspired their share of musical versions, including Beethoven's 1815 choral setting and Mendelssohn's famous concert overture. The title is often translated as "Calm Seas and Prosperous Voyage", but that fails to convey the sense of the text. Meerestille is better translated as "Becalmed" and the glückliche Fahrt is a happy or successful voyage only in the sense that the travelers finally reach port safely. In the days before steam power, being becalmed at sea was perhaps the worst fate which could befall a ship, and Beethoven does a masterful job not only of conveying the ominous, deadly calm of the ocean but also of suggesting an edge of barely suppressed hysteria. The music brightens as the wind freshens and the prospects of a safe return home suddenly become real, but there is still something a bit frantic about the repeated phrase "schon seh' ich das Land!" (I can already see land!) At the time he was composing Meerestille, Beethoven was also heavily involved in concerts given in conjunction with the Congress of Vienna, which marked the end of the Napoleonic Wars. One of the main attractions was an otherwise eminently forgettable novelty piece of his which enjoyed a brief popularity, Wellington's Victory.

  • Ralph Vaughan Williams' Long Journey out Of
    Philip Beidler Ralph Vaughan Williams’ Long Journey Out of War ied some,” intones the narrator of Pound’s Hugh Selwyn Mauberly, “pro patria, / non ‘dulce’ non ‘et décor’ . / walked-eye deep in hell / believing in old men’s lies, then unbelieving / came home, home to a “Dlie, home to many deceits, / home to old lies and new infamy.” Thus reads one of the most celebrated post-World War I anthems for doomed youth. (The latter phrasing, as will be recognized, is that of the young British soldier-poet Wilfred Owen, aged 25, himself killed in Flanders a week before the German surrender) Such poetic expressions of generational protest, written by contemporaries or by slightly older figures like Pound, comprise one of the great genres of the war, and are reflected as well in a larger history of survivorship writing, Anglo-European and American: Robert Graves’s Good Bye to all That, Vera Brittain’s Testament of Youth, Erich Maria Remarque’s All Quiet on the Western Front, Ernest Hemingway’s A Farewell to Arms. “You are all a lost generation:” Hemingway claimed to have gotten the famous line—used as an epigraph to his 1925 novel of war-ruined expatriates in Paris, The Sun Also Rises—from a conversation with Gertrude Stein, who in turn is said to have heard it originally it from a French garage-owner, complaining of the curious anomie of a young mechanic assistant who had survived the war. Thus in life and art alike, the experience of fighting and dying young became a signature motif of World War I on the western front and elsewhere, as did frequently also that of perhaps surviving the war but in the process returning home too physically or psychologically damaged to resume anything resembling the patterns of peacetime existence.
