  • Oboe Trios: an Annotated Bibliography
    Oboe Trios: An Annotated Bibliography by Melissa Sassaman A Research Paper Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts Approved November 2014 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Martin Schuring, Chair Elizabeth Buck Amy Holbrook Gary Hill ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY December 2014 ABSTRACT This project is a practical annotated bibliography of original works for oboe trio with the specific instrumentation of two oboes and English horn. Presenting descriptions of 116 readily available oboe trios, this project is intended to promote awareness, accessibility, and performance of compositions within this genre. The annotated bibliography focuses exclusively on original, published works for two oboes and English horn. Unpublished works, arrangements, works that are out of print and not available through interlibrary loan, or works that feature slightly altered instrumentation are not included. Entries in this annotated bibliography are listed alphabetically by the last name of the composer. Each entry includes the dates of the composer and a brief biography, followed by the title of the work, composition date, commission, and dedication of the piece. Also included are the names of publishers, the length of the entire piece in minutes and seconds, and an incipit of the first one to eight measures for each movement of the work. In addition to providing a comprehensive and detailed bibliography of oboe trios, this document traces the history of the oboe trio and includes biographical sketches of each composer cited, allowing readers to place the genre of oboe trios and each individual composition into its historical context. Four appendices at the end include a list of trios arranged alphabetically by composer’s last name, chronologically by the date of composition, and by country of origin and a list of publications of Ludwig van Beethoven's oboe trios from the 1940s and earlier.

  • Brock Campbell, Tuba Musical Texture
    ANTHONY PLOG Three Miniatures for Tuba and Piano (1990) (b. Glendale, CA, USA, 13 November 1947) Anthony Flog received his music degree from UCLA. Trumpet studies were first with his father (Clifton Flog) and later with Irving Bush, Thomas Stevens, and James Stamp. He has a successful international career as a soloist and has made many recordings. His compositional activities have grown substantially in recent years, and his works are played frequently throughout the world. In 1990 a CD was released which was dedicated to his works for brass {Anthony Plog - Colorsfor Brass with the Summit Brass and the St. Louis Brass Quintet) on Summit Records. Since September 1993 Anthony Plog is In Recital Professor of Music at the Musikhochschule in Freiburg, Germany. Three Miniaturesfor Tuba and Piano was written for tubist Dan Ferantoni. It is intended as a show piece for those characteristics which concert audiences don't normally associate with the tuba, such as virtuoso technical passages and Lyricism in the upper register. Of course, the piece is not simply an exhibition of instrumental capabilities; it is also an ensemble piece for tuba and piano, with both instruments weaving in and out of the Brock Campbell, tuba musical texture. The first and third movements (both Allegro vivace) are aggressive in style, while the second movement (Freely) is calm and reflective. Candidate for the Master of Music degree in Applied Music ELIZABETH RAUM Concerto del Garda (1996) (b. Berlin, NH, USA, 13 January 1945) assisted by Elizabeth Raum is active both as an oboist and as a composer. She earned her Bachelor of Music in oboe performance from the Eastman School of Music in 1966 and her Master Roger Admiral, piano of Music in composition from the University of Regina in 1985.

  • Jan Koetsier
    Jan Koetsier Jan Koetsier was born on 14 August 1911 in Amsterdam, the son of the singer Jeanne Koetsier and the teacher Jan Koetsier-Muller. From an early age he received musical encouragement and support (piano lessons). Koetsier decided to study music early on, entering college straight after leaving school. He moved to Berlin in 1913 with his family, and aged 16, was the youngest student of his day to pass the entrance audition in piano to the Berlin Hochschule für Musik. There, as well as studying piano, he studied score- reading and music theory with Walther Gmeindl, and conducting with Julius Prüwer from 1932. Also encouraged by Artur Schnabel, signs of his future direction in music began to emerge – composing and conducting. In 1933, Koetsier took up a position as a répétiteur at the Stadttheater in Lübeck. But after just one concert season, he returned to Berlin and began working as a conductor touring with theatre ensembles such as the ‘Deutsche Musikbühne’ and the ‘Deutsche Landesbühne’; his repertoire expanded to include music theatre works. From 1936/37 he had the opportunity of working as a freelance conductor for the short-wave broadcasting station in Berlin, directing broadcasts of his own folk music arrangements, including arrangements of South American and African songs. Because of the political situation, Koetsier gave up his position at the Berlin radio station in 1940 and took up an offer of working as piano accompanist to the dancer Ilse Meudtner on a year-long tour. Following on from this, he worked as conductor of the newly-founded Kammeropera in The Hague, during which he travelled to numerous Dutch towns and cities (1941/42).

  • Program Notes by Leonard Garrison 7:30 P.M., Saturday, June 6, 2015 Sonata for Horn and Piano, Op. 347 Fritz Spindler [Note by C
    Program Notes by Leonard Garrison 7:30 p.m., Saturday, June 6, 2015 Sonata for Horn and Piano, Op. 347 Fritz Spindler [Note by Chris Dickey] Fritz Spindler (1817-1905) was a German composer and pianist. He originally studied to become a minister but later realized his passion was for music. After years of studying piano privately, Spindler dedicated his life to composition and teaching. During his lifetime, he was productive and wrote in various genres, including trios, sonatas, opera transcriptions, two symphonies, a piano concerto, orchestral works, and numerous teaching pieces for the piano. His compositions are noted for their tuneful melodies and artful construction. This Sonata for Horn and Piano, Op. 347 is no exception. The first movement expresses a traditional sonata-allegro form, but the music travels to unexpected tonal centers in all three formal areas of the movement. An aria-like middle movement follows and features long, fluid melodic lines for the soloist and pianist. The lively finale is a spirited rondo that brings the sonata to a conclusion. In general, the piano part is especially virtuosic as Spindler himself was a gifted pianist. Sonata for Cello Solo in C Minor, Op. 28 Eugène Ysaÿe Belgian violinist, composer, and conductor Eugène Ysaÿe (1858-1931) studied with his father and Henri Vieuxtemps. He taught a generation of famous violinists at the Brussels Conservatory, including Joseph Gingold, Nathan Milstein, and violist Willian Primrose. Many of the leading composers of the time dedicated works to him, most notably César Franck’s Violin Sonata. Ysaÿe’s best-known compositions are his six solo sonatas for violin, and the Cello Sonata makes equal demands of virtuosity.
