Richard Strauss's Ariadne Auf Naxos
Richard Strauss’s Ariadne auf Naxos - A survey of the major recordings by Ralph Moore Ariadne auf Naxos is less frequently encountered on stage than Der Rosenkavalier or Salome, but it is something of favourite among those who fancy themselves connoisseurs, insofar as its plot revolves around a conceit typical of Hofmannsthal’s libretti, whereby two worlds clash: the merits of populist entertainment, personified by characters from the burlesque Commedia dell’arte tradition enacting Viennese operetta, are uneasily juxtaposed with the claims of high art to elevate and refine the observer as embodied in the opera seria to be performed by another company of singers, its plot derived from classical myth. The tale of Ariadne’s desertion by Theseus is performed in the second half of the evening and is in effect an opera within an opera. The fun starts when the major-domo conveys the instructions from “the richest man in Vienna” that in order to save time and avoid delaying the fireworks, both entertainments must be performed simultaneously. Both genres are parodied and a further contrast is made between Zerbinetta’s pragmatic attitude towards love and life and Ariadne’s morbid, death-oriented idealism – “Todgeweihtes Herz!”, Tristan und Isolde-style. Strauss’ scoring is interesting and innovative; the orchestra numbers only forty or so players: strings and brass are reduced to chamber-music scale and the orchestration heavily weighted towards woodwind and percussion, with the result that it is far less grand and Romantic in scale than is usual in Strauss and a peculiarly spare ad spiky mood frequently prevails. -

1 the Alps, Richard Strauss's Alpine Symphony and Environmentalism
Note: This is an expanded version of an article appearing in the journal Green Letters (2011); it is intended for a literary rather than musical readership, and the punctuation and spellings are British. The Alps, Richard Strauss’s Alpine Symphony and Environmentalism By Brooks Toliver Introduction After love and death, nature may well be European music’s preferred theme; it figures significantly in troubadour cansos, pastoral madrigals and operas, tone poems, impressionistic preludes, and elsewhere. In light of this it is puzzling how seldom actual nature is invoked in musical discourse. Composers—Richard Strauss among them—have been known to seek out nature in the manner of landscape painters, but there is no similar tradition among the critics, who ground nature-music and their judgments of it not in nature but in other music and criticism. When confronted with the vivid imagery of Strauss’s Alpine Symphony (1915), contemporaries wrote primarily of the aesthetics of vivid imagery, relegating the images themselves to the level of anecdote. Musicologists are quite adept at exploring the relationship of works to cultural constructions of nature, but relatively few have brought real environments into the discussion of canonical music. There has as yet been no serious consideration of how the Alps might be critical to an appreciation of the Alpine Symphony, nor has anyone theorized what the consequences of the Alpine Symphony might be for the Alps. Surely it is worth asking whether it metaphorically embodies sustaining or destructive relationships to the environment it represents, if it respects or disrespects nonhuman nature, and if love of nature is contingent on a symbolic domination of it, to name just three questions. -

Briefe Aus Italien
*«> THE LIBRARY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA LOS ANGELES EX LIBRIS GUSTAV GLÜCK Ubi o CARL JUSTI BRIEFE AUS ITALIEN 1922 VERLAG VON FRIEDRICH COHEN • BONN Carl Jusii 1868 CARL JUSTI BRIEFE AUS ITALIEN 1922 VERLAG VON FRIEDRICH COHEN • BONN Copyright 1922 by Friedrich Cohen, Bonn Art Library VORWORT WENN Carl Justi es unternommen hat, in Briefen an die Seinen Eindrücke bei seiner ersten Fahrt nach Italien, das er schon so lange sehnsüchtig mit der Seele gesucht hatte, zu schildern, so wird man erwarten können, daß die Fähigkeit, die ihn zum ersten Kunstkenner unserer Zeit gemacht hat, auch hier sich zeigen werde, die Fähigkeit, überall das Characteristische zu sehen und das Schöne zu empfinden. Und denkt man weiter an den Meister des Worts, als welcher er sich in seinen Büchern ge- zeigt hat, an die unglaubliche Vielseitigkeit seiner Kenntnisse in Geschichte und Literatur, so wird man nicht zweifeln, daß seine Berichte aus Italien durch ganz besondere Reize ausgezeichnet sein werden. Daher wurde mir dieErlaubniß der Schwester des großen Meisters, diese Briefe zu lesen, welche er von der Reise an Eltern vmd Ge- schwister gerichtet hat, zu einem werthvollen Geschenk. Und ich fand meine Erwartungen ganz erfüllt. Justi giebt nicht einen eigent- lichen Reisebericht, sondern er greift einzelne Scenen aus dem Er- lebten und Geschauten heraus; mag er über Kirnst sprechen, oder über Kirchen- und Volksfeste, Naturschildervmgen geben oder Menschen zeichnen, immer sind es in sich vollendete Skizzen, feine Vergleiche, geistvolle Bemerkungen, die oft einem selbst nur dunkel bewußt gewordene Empfindungen klar aussprechen. Die Leetüre wurde mir ein hoher Genuß, und da meinte ich, daß es vielen ebenso gehen werde, wie mir. -
