Stephen Rodgers As a prolific song composer whose works span the development ofthe French song cycle, Massenet is worthy ofclose examination. To date, analyses ofhis songs have included a cursory glance by Frits Noske and a review ofthematic relationships by Mario Champagne. These analyses leave many ofMassenet's compositions untouched and exclude many musical features ofmerit. This thesis offers a thorough evaluation ofMassenet's songs with the aim of tracing the development ofhis style as an outgrowth ofGerman influence. I focus on three works from the beginning, middle, and end ofMassenet's career--Poeme d'avril, Poeme d'amour, and Expressions lyriques--that show the pmgression ofMassenet's style and establish his place as a bridge between the great lieder composers ofthe early nineteenth century and the great melodie composers ofthe early twentieth century. -

Jules Massenet
Jules Massenet Montaud (Saint-Étienne) 12 mai 1842 — Paris 13 août 1912. Son grand-père est professeur à Strasbourg. Son père, Jules Émile Frédéric, officier dans les armées du premier empire, est directeur d'une entreprise de matériel agricole de 1814 à 1848. Sa mère Eléonore-Adelaïde Royer de Marancour (1809-1875), est une bonne pianiste qui a composé quelques pièces. Elle donne des leçons de piano. Il reçoit à partir de 1851 ses premières leçons de piano de sa mère. Recalé une première fois en 1851, il est admis au Conservatoire de Paris le 10 janvier 1853. Il y suit les cours de Savard pour le chant et d’A.Laurents pour le piano. Ses parents déménagent à Chambéry en 1854. Il tente de gagner Paris, mais est rapidement ramené à ses parents. Accueilli à Paris par sa sœur Julie, il peut reprendre les cours du Conservatoire l'année suivante. Il obtient un premier Prix de piano en 1859, mais ne s'entend pas avec Bazin, son professeur de composition. Il est impressionné par l'audition de L'Enfance du Christ de Berlioz en 1855 et suit les concerts des œuvres de Berlioz et de Wagner au Cirque Napoléon (inauguré par Napoléon III en 1852, devenu depuis Cirque d'Hiver), les concerts que Wagner donne en personne en 1860 lors de son séjour parisien. Il étudie l'harmonie avec Reber. Il donne quelques concerts. En 1861 il entre dans la classe de composition d'Ambroise Thomas de celle d'orgue de Benoist. La même année, il publie chez Brandus et Dufour une Grande Fantaisie de concert sur le Pardon de Ploërmel, sur un thème de Giacomo Meyerbeer. -

Composing Symbolism's Musicality of Language in Fin-De-Siècle France
COMPOSING SYMBOLISM’S MUSICALITY OF LANGUAGE IN FIN-DE-SIÈCLE FRANCE Megan Elizabeth Varvir Coe, B.A., M.A. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2016 APPROVED: Peter Mondelli, Major Professor Hendrik Schulze, Committee Member Steven Friedson, Committee Member Frank Heidlberger, Chair of the Division of Music History, Theory, and Ethnomusicology Benjamin Brand, Director of Graduate Studies, College of Music John Richmond, Dean of the College of Music Victor Prybutok, Vice Provost of the Toulouse Graduate School Varvir Coe, Megan Elizabeth. Composing Symbolism’s Musicality of Language in fin- de-siècle France. Doctor of Philosophy (Musicology), August 2016, 364 pp., 9 tables, 15 figures, 31 musical examples, bibliography, 520 titles. In this dissertation, I explore the musical prosody of the literary symbolists and the influence of this prosody on fin-de-siècle French music. Contrary to previous categorizations of music as symbolist based on a characteristic “sound,” I argue that symbolist aesthetics demonstrably influenced musical construction and reception. My scholarship reveals that symbolist musical works across genres share an approach to composition rooted in the symbolist concept of musicality of language, a concept that shapes this music on sonic, structural, and conceptual levels. I investigate the musical responses of four different composers to a single symbolist text, Oscar Wilde’s one-act play Salomé, written in French in 1891, as case studies in order to elucidate how a symbolist musicality of language informed their creation, performance, and critical reception. The musical works evaluated as case studies are Antoine Mariotte’s Salomé, Richard Strauss’s Salomé, Aleksandr Glazunov’s Introduction et La Danse de Salomée, and Florent Schmitt’s La Tragédie de Salomé. -
Republican Reconfigurations of Catholicism in the Music of Third Republic Paris, 1880–1905
SOUNDING THE RALLIEMENT: REPUBLICAN RECONFIGURATIONS OF CATHOLICISM IN THE MUSIC OF THIRD REPUBLIC PARIS, 1880–1905 JENNIFER WALKER A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Music. Chapel Hill 2019 Approved by: Annegret Fauser Andrea Bohlman Mark Evan Bonds Tim Carter Clair Rowden ©2019 Jennifer Walker ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Jennifer Walker: Sounding the Ralliement: Republican Reconfigurations of Catholicism in the Music of Third Republic Paris, 1880–1905 (Under the direction of Annegret Fauser) Military defeat, political and civil turmoil, and a growing unrest between Catholic traditionalists and increasingly secular Republicans formed the basis of a deep-seated identity crisis in Third Republic France. Beginning in the early 1880s, Republican politicians introduced increasingly secularizing legislature to the parliamentary floor that included, but was not limited to, the secularization of the French educational system. As the divide between Church and State widened on the political stage, more and more composers began writing religious—even liturgical—music for performance in decidedly secular venues, including popular cabaret theaters, prestigious opera houses, and international exhibitions: a trend that coincided with Pope Leo XIII’s Ralliement politics that encouraged conservative Catholics to “rally” with the Republican government. But the idea of a musical Ralliement has largely gone unquestioned by historians and musicologists alike. Thus my study of this music provokes a fundamental reconsideration of music’s role in the relationship between the French state and the Catholic Church in the Third Republic and, in doing so, dismantles the somewhat simplistic epistemological position that emphasizes a sharp division between the Church and the “secular” Republic during this period. -
«Les Grands Oratorios À L'église Saint-Eustache» and the Parisian
«Les Grands oratorios à l’église Saint-Eustache» and the Parisian Press Jennifer Walker (University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill) [email protected] On 15 January 1900, multiple Parisian newspapers announced an upcoming series of oratorio performances that was to take place at the church of Saint- Eustache during the coming months. Generally speaking, announcements such as these are unremarkable in themselves. Yet these announcements were curious, for the headlines prefaced the announcement with the phrase «les grands oratoires comiques»1. The juxtaposition of «comiques» — the association of which with the opéra-comique would not have been lost on readers — with a Parisian parish church intended for private worship was striking, and would come to serve as perhaps the most apt description of the events that would soon unfold — so much so that the critic Henry Mortimer quipped that the series of performances was sure to be successful by virtue of the humor of the situation, writing that «when one has laughter on one’s side, one is very close to success»2. Indeed, Mortimer proved to be correct: the concert series ultimately garnered overwhelmingly positive reviews by critics with varying ideological and aesthetic allegiances. While the preparations for the 1900 Exposition Universelle took up the lion’s share of the Parisian press, Eugène d’Harcourt’s series of oratorio performances nonetheless commanded a surprisingly substantial portion of journalists’ attention, due in no small part to objections raised by figures such 1.
