[«] OVERTURE TO THE OPERA "OBERON" By Carl Maria von Weber
Born in Eutin, Oldenburg, in Germany, November 18,* 1786; died in
London, June 5, 1826
The Opera "Oberon," or "The Elf King's Oath," completed April 9, 1826, had its first production at Covent Garden, London, on April 12, the composer conduct- ing, Weber composed it by order of Charles Kemble, Manager of the Covent Garden. The text, by James Robinson Planche, was an English translation of C. M. Wieland's "Oberon." Planche was helped by the earlier translation of W. Sotheby. "Oberon" was first heard in Germany in Leipzig, December 23 of the same year. The first performance in America has been stated as given at the Park Theatre, New York, October 9, 1828. Philip Hale, remarking that "Oberon" has undergone many re- visions on account of its bulk of spoken text, doubts whether this performance was "exactly as Weber wrote it" and names the "first veritable performance" as one given at the Academy of Music in New York by the Parepa-Rosa English opera company, March 29, 1870. The first performance in Boston was in Music Hall by this same company, May 23, 1870. The opera was revived at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York, December 28, 1918, when Artur Bodanzky conducted; Rosa Ponselle sang Rezia; Giovanni Martinelli, Sir Huon.
* The date of Weber's birth is universally given as December 18, 1786. Nicolas Slonimsky, who has profitably devoted his time to the checking and correction of wrong dates handed down from one compiler of dictionaries to another, offers this information : "Music dic- tionaries, the Encyclopedia Britannica, and other reference works all give the wrong date of Weber's birth, December 18, 1786. I have obtained a copy of Weber's registry of baptism from Eutin, Germany, which states that Carl Maria Friedrick Ernst von Weber (his full name) was baptized on November 20, 1786. He was probably born on November 18, which was the day on which he celebrated his birthday in later life. At any rate, the discovery of his baptismal registry disposes of the December 18 date which for some reason has been accepted even by Weber's German biographers."

[9] The most recent performance of the Overture at the Friday and Saturday con- certs of this orchestra was on February 28, 1947. The Overture is scored for two flutes, two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons, four horns, two trumpets, three trombones, timpani, and strings.
a t the end of the manuscript score of the romantic opera "Oberon," X~\ the composer wrote the customary words "Soli Deo Gloria!" Weber had good reasons to offer this exclamation of pious relief. The text of the opera had been hurried to him act by act for com- position. Its production at the Covent Garden on April 12 was but three days away. He had been compelled to work in great haste and likewise to learn English, for the libretto of James Robinson Planche was in that language.* The plot was as involved as most opera plots were apt to be at that time. He objected in a letter to the librettist, "The intermixing of so many principal actors who do not sing — the omission of the music in the most important moments — all these things deprive our 'Oberon' of the title of an opera, and will make him [sic] unfit for all other theatres in Europe, which is a very bad thing for me, but — passons la-dessus."
* Weber, in "one hundred and fifty-three lessons," made himself sufficiently familiar with English for the purposes of composing "Oberon." He could express himself in letters to Planche at length and clearly, if not accurately. When Planche sent him a French transla- tion of the text, he answered: "I thank you obligingly for your goodness of having translated the verses in French ; but it was not so necessary, because I am, though yet a weak, however a diligent student of the English language."

RALPH LOWELL, Piesideni
[»] Weber was correct in his assumption. "Oberon" as a drama with incidental music was not suitable for the opera houses of the con- tinent, and accordingly was to undergo revisions with the insertion of recitatives and even numbers from his other operas. The plot was full of the extravagant conceits of magic and love under tribulation which were the fashion of the time. Oberon quarrels with Titania
(hers was a silent part) , swears that peace will not be made between them until a pair of mortal lovers prove faithful under the severest trials. The hero, Sir Huon, travels to the East under the supernatural guidance of Puck as Oberon's agent, abducts the Princess Rezia. Both are captured by pirates and condemned to death. But the interven- tion of the magic horn of Oberon (it is also heard in the Overture) saves their lives. One suspects that the popularity of "Oberon" in
London (it ran through thirty-one performances in its first season) had something to do with its resemblance to a pantomime even more than an opera. Mr. Planche confirms this impression when in his "Rec- ollections and Reflections" he describes the unmusical nature of the London public: "A dramatic situation in music was 'caviar to the
General' and inevitably received with cries of 'Cut it short!' from the gallery and obstinate coughing and other significant signs of im- patience from the pit." On top of this series of tribulations Weber was a very sick man. His system was so wasted with tuberculosis that he fulfilled his many

He knew that a sentence of death hung over him, and he undertook the English opera for the gold it would bring to his wife and children. When his friend Gubitz, in Berlin, tried to dissuade him from undertaking the journey to London, he answered: "Whether I can or no, I must. Money must be made for my family — money, man. I am going to London to die there. Not a word! I know it as well as you." The completion of the last act of "Oberon" was indeed a race with death. As his son and biographer, Max Maria von Weber wrote, "All the light and life and freshness and geniality of the work gushed forth from the brain of a weak, sick, bowed-down, irritated man, who was shattered by an incessant cough, who sat at his work table wrapped up in furs, with his swollen feet in wadded velvet boots, and yet shivered with cold in his heated room; as though the genius which created all had nothing in common with the poor suffering body." When he led performances for the fee they would bring, ladies, ob- serving his condition, would shower him the next day with lozenges and jellies, but nothing was done really to spare him; over-adulation hastened the end. He died in London within two months of the first performance. Max Maria von Weber wrote as follows about the Overture:

[15] "Although the opera may bear unmistakable traces of weariness and haste, and sad marks of the spur applied to the composer's flagging genius, and may thus display Weber's mannerisms more than any other of his works, yet that great symphonic introduction to the whole, the Overture, which was completed only two months before his death, soars triumphantly over the influence of the deadly faintness lying heavy on him, and the pressure of outward circumstances. This Overture is in- ferior to none of his others in life, fire, freshness, and wealth of ideas. Combined with those of 'Der Freischiltz' and 'Euryanthe/ and his 'Jubilee' Overture, it forms a magnificent constellation, each star in which shines with a different light, but yet with co-equal splendor. From first to last, the Overture to 'Oberon' is in most intimate sym- pathy with the subject. Every picture of the drama is mirrored forth in it — the world of elves and spirits; the pomp and pride of chivalry and romance; glowing love struggling against slavery, elemental might, separation, and death; the majesty of -Oriental enchantment. It has been asserted that Weber went too far, in this Overture, in his con- glomeration of various musical intentions. . . . But still the Overture to 'Oberon' will always remain a monument of strength to the fame of the dramatic, romantic composer." Pitts Sanborn, as annotator for the Philharmonic-Symphony Society of New York, has related interesting circumstances about the prepara- tion of "Qberon": When Weber composed "Oberon" he was a dying man and he knew it. Yet the music in its sum total is cheerful, brilliant, abound-

We may well doubt whether an artist's physical state is necessarily mirrored in his work. The writing of "Oberon" is a chronicle of courage and pathos. In 1824 ^e management of Covent Garden was in the hands of Charles Kemble of the famous theatrical family — an eminent actor himself and a brother of John Philip Kemble and Sarah Siddons, as well as the father of Fanny Kemble and thus the great-grandfather of the Ameri- can novelist Owen Wister. Inspired by the immense vogue of "Der FreischiXtz" he desired an opera by Weber expressly composed to please the British public. So in July, 1824, he went to Ems, where Weber, already consumptive, was taking the waters, to discuss the matter in person with the composer. Kemble had two subjects for an opera in mind. One was Goethe's "Faust," the other Wieland's poem "Oberon" (derived from the
chanson de geste "Huon de Bordeaux") . Weber had doubts concern- ing an operatic "Faust" but "Oberon" seized his fancy. Planche was selected to supply the book and Weber himself was to go to London to superintend the rehearsals and conduct the earlier performances. Then came the question of money. Weber refused Kemble's first offer of £500, but when the manager doubled it, he accepted. True, his doctor told him frankly that if he were to go to London, between the climate and the work involved, the end would be a matter of months or perhaps weeks, whereas if he

[19] would spend one year in Italy he might live for four or five. Weber thought of his wife and children and their needs after his death. "As God wills!" he exclaimed and chose London. In spite of his poor health, Weber's artistic conscience would not allow him to set an English text without first mastering the language. Consequently he set out to learn English thoroughly, taking one hun- dred and fifty-three lessons from an Englishman named Carey, and the astonishing progress he made can be gathered from his English letters to Planche. The librettist sent Weber, who was in Dresden, the first and second acts early in January, 1825, an(^ tne composer began his musical sketches on the twenty-third. The score was not finished, how- ever, when Weber started for England on February 7, 1826, accom- panied by his devoted friend Kasper Fiirstenau, the flautist. In London he was the guest of Sir George Smart, conductor of the London Philharmonic Society. Though gravely ill when he arrived on March 5, and harried by the dampness and fog of London, he braced himself to go through with his task. Rehearsals began on March 9, and he had to be present at all fifteen. The overture, which, like not a few other overtures, was, paradoxical as it may seem, written last,
Weber completed on April 9.
Three days later the premiere was a triumph. Benedict in his life of Weber, after recording that the overture was so wildly applauded that the composer-conductor had no choice but to repeat it, goes on to tell us that every other piece also received its full meed of approbation,

When the curtain fell, the entire audience, who had shown the com- poser their attention and regard by remaining in their places till all was over, rose simultaneously with frantic and unceasing calls for Weber, who at last appeared, trembling with emotion, exhausted, but happy." After the performance Weber could write to his wife: "By God's grace I have had tonight such a perfect success as never before." And though dying, he conducted eleven more performances of "Oberon" and several concerts, including one of the Philharmonic Society and a benefit concert at the Argyll Rooms. His entire earnings in London amounted to the equivalent of $5,355. On the evening of June 4, Weber had to be helped upstairs to bed. To Fiirstenau he remarked: "God reward you for all your kind love to me. Now let me sleep." The next morning the maid informed Smart that she had knocked at Weber's door but there was no answer. Smart, who sent at once for Fiirstenau and a doctor, relates in his diary: "On bursting open the bedroom door, we found Weber dead, lying tran- quilly on his right side, his cheek in his hand." Smart's house, at 91 Great Portland Street, was provided in 1894 with a memorial tablet, the gift of the Incorporated Society of Musi- cians, telling that there Weber had died. The house stood till 1907, when its old walls yielded to the march of progress. wmmmm^mmmmrmmmMMB.

l"«3] .. . SYMPHONY IN D MINOR, No. 4, Op. 120 By Robert Schumann
Born at Zwickau, June 8, 1810; died at Endenich, July 29, 1856
Composed in 1841, at Leipzig, this symphony was first performed at a Gewand- haus concert on December 6 of the same year. Schumann made a new orchestration in December, 1851, at Diisseldorf, and the revision was performed there on March 3, 1853, at the Spring Festival of the lower Rhine. It was published in December, 1853, as his Fourth Symphony. The orchestration includes two flutes, two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons, two horns, two trumpets, three trombones, timpani and strings.
Schumann wrote this symphony a few months after the completion of his First Symphony in B-flat. The D minor Symphony was numbered four only because he revised it ten years later and did not publish it until 1853, after his three others had been written and published (the Second in 1846, the Third in 1850). This symphony, then, was the second in order of composition. It belongs to a year notable in Schumann's development. He and Clara were married in the autumn of 1840, and this event seems to have stirred in him a new and significant creative impulse: 1840 became a year of songs in sudden and rich profusion, while in 1841 he sensed for the first time in full degree the mastery of symphonic forms. He had written two years before to Heinrich Dorn, once his teacher in composition: "I often

[25] feel tempted to crush my piano — it is too narrow for my thoughts.
I really have very little practice in orchestral music now; still I hope to master it." The products of 1841 show that he worked as well as
dreamed toward that end. As Mr. W. J. Henderson has well described this moment of his life: "The tumult of young love lifted him from the piano to the voice. The consummation of his manhood, in the union with a woman of noble heart and commanding intellect, led him to the orchestra. In 1841 he rushed into the symphonic field, and * composed no less than three of his orchestral works." These works were the First, the "Spring" Symphony, which he began in January 1841, four months after his marriage, and completed in a few weeks; the "Overture, Scherzo and Finale" of April and May, and the D minor Symphony, which occupied the summer months. There might also be mentioned the "phantasie" in A minor, composed in the same summer, which was later to become the first movement of the piano concerto. But the two symphonies, of course, were the trium- phant scores of the year. The D minor Symphony, no less than its mate, is music of tender jubilation, intimately bound with the first full spring of Schumann's life — like the other a nuptial symphony, instinct with the fresh realization of symphonic power. * "Preludes and Studies."—W. J. Henderson.

Clara observed still earlier creative stirrings, for she recorded in her diary under the date of May 31: "Robert began yesterday another symphony, which will be in one movement, and yet contain an adagio and a finale. I have heard nothing about it, yet I see Robert's bustle, and I hear the D minor sounding wildly from a distance, so that I know in advance that another work will be fashioned in the depths of his soul. Heaven
is kindly disposed toward us: Robert cannot be happier in the com- position than I am when he shows me such a work." On September
13, which was Clara's birthday, and when also their first child, Marie, then twelve days old, was baptized, Robert presented the young mother with the completed score of the symphony. And the composer wrote modestly in the diary: "One thing makes me happy — the consciousness of being still far from my goal and obliged to keep doing better, and then the feeling that I have the strength to reach it."
The first performance was at a Gewandhaus concert on December 6, Ferdinand David conducting. It was a friendly event, Clara Schumann playing piano solos by their colleagues Mendelssohn, Chopin, Stern- dale Bennett. She appeared jointly with Liszt, in his "Hexameron" for two pianos. Schumann's new "Overture, Scherzo, and Finale" was also

r*9] played. Unfortunately, the success of the B-flat major Symphony in the previous March was by no means repeated in the new D minor Symphony. The criticisms were not favorable. Clara Schumann, who always defended her husband, wrote that "Robert's Symphony was not especially well performed," and the composer himself added: "It was probably too much of me at a single sitting; and we missed Men- delssohn's conducting too; but it doesn't matter, for I know the things are good, and will make their way in their own good time." But Schumann laid the work aside. It does not seem that he could have considered a revision for some time, for he offered the manu- script to a publisher in 1843 or ^44 as hi s "Second Symphony, Op. 50." According to the testimony of Brahms, many years later, Schu- mann's dissatisfaction with the symphony preceded its first perform- ance. "Schumann was so upset by a first rehearsal that went off badly," wrote Brahms to Herzogenberg, October 1886, "that subsequently he orchestrated the symphony afresh at Diisseldorf." This revision was made in December, 1851. The fresh score was performed at Diisseldorf on March 3, 1853, at the Spring Festival of the lower Rhine. This time the work had a decided success, despite the quality of the orchestra which, according to Brahms, was "bad and incomplete," and notwith- standing the fact that Schumann conducted, for, by the testimony of

Branches in Worcester, Springfield and Wellesley Hills his contemporaries, he was conspicuously ineffectual at the head of an orchestra. When in the following autumn the committee urged that Schumann conduct only his own works in the future, Clara wrote bitterly about the incident.
From the following letter (to Verhulst) it appears that Schumann made the revision because of urgent friends: "When we last heard that Symphony at Leipzig, I never thought it would reappear on such an occasion as this. I was against its being included, but was persuaded by some of the committee who had heard it. I have scored it afresh, and it is now more effective." Schumann dedicated the symphony to Joseph Joachim, who was then twenty-two years old. He wrote on the manuscript: "When the first tones of this symphony were awakened,
Joseph Joachim was still a little fellow; since then the symphony and still more the boy have grown bigger, wherefore I dedicate it to him, although only in private." The score was published in December, 1853.
The Symphony is integrated by the elimination of pauses between the movements, and by thematic recurrence, the theme of the intro- duction reappearing at the beginning of the slow movement, a phrase

[32] , from the slow movement in the Trio of the Scherzo. The principal theme of the first movement is used in the Finale, and a subsidiary theme in the first movement becomes the leading theme in the Finale. This was a true innovation, foreshadowing the cyclic symphonies of many years later. "He desires," in the opinion of Mr. Henderson, "that the hearer's feelings shall pass, as his own did, from one state to the next without interruption. In a word, this is the first symphonic poem, a form which is based upon the irrefutable assertion that 'there is no break between two successive emotional states.' " Its "community of theme is nothing more or less than an approach to the leit motive system." The Symphony is the most notable example of the symphonic Schumann abandoning customary formal procedure to let his romantic imagination take hold and shape his matter to what end it will. It should be borne in mind that the Symphony was first thought of by its composer as a symphonic fantasia, that it was published by him as "Introduction, Allegro, Romanze, Scherzo and Finale, in One'Move- ment." It was in this, the published version, that he eliminated pauses between the movements, although this does not appear in the earlier version save in the joining of the scherzo and finale. The work, save in the slow movement, has no "recapitulations" in the traditional sense, no cut and dried summations. Warming to his theme, Schumann expands to new thematic material and feels no necessity for return. The score

[33] is unmistakably of one mood. It is integrated by the threads of like thoughts. Thematic recurrence becomes inevitable, because this unity of thought makes it natural.
The first movement is finely oblivious of academic requirements. The whole movement hangs upon the reiteration of the principal theme, a restless, running figure in sixteenth notes which appears and reappears constantly in every part of the orchestra, entwined with others. There is no contrasting second theme, but only a slight devia- tion from this one. Two episodic themes — the one consisting of brief rhythmic chords, the other of a flowing melody — carry the movement to its end in a triumphant D major. The Romanze is in song form.
The melody from the introduction to the first movement is introduced in the first part, while in the middle section the violin solo weaves a delicate embroidery. The Trio of the Scherzo is based upon the orna- mental solo passage from the slow movement. After the repetition of the main section, the Trio again begins, recalling the precedent of Beethoven where the Scherzo theme would be expected to break in and bring a conclusion. Instead, the Trio dies away in a long diminu- endo, and leads into the introduction to the Finale (a true bridge passage, which has been compared to the famous pages which connect

THE MOST TREASURED NAME IN PERFUME HAN SYMPHONY IN E MINOR, NO. 4, Op. 98 By Johannes Brahms
Born at Hamburg, May 7, 1833; died at Vienna, April 3, 1897
The first two movements were composed in the summer of 1884; the remaining two in the summer of 1885. The Symphony had its first performance at Meiningen, October 25, 1885, under the direction of the composer. The orchestration includes two flutes and piccolo, two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons and contra -bassoon, four horns, two trumpets, three trombones, timpani, triangle and strings.
The Fourth Symphony was announced for its first performance in America by the Boston Symphony Orchestra, November 26, 1886. Wilhelm Gericke duly con- ducted the symphony on Friday, November 25, but he was not satisfied with the performance, and withdrew the score for further preparation, substituting the First Symphony by Robert Schumann. Since the Friday performance was considered a "public rehearsal," although, according to a newspaper account, Mr. Gericke did not at any point stop the orchestra, this was not called a "first performance," and the honor went to the Symphony Society of New York on December 11, Walter Damrosch conducting. The Boston performance took place on December 23.

arenti (ji [38] as far as he dared for news about the musical fruits of the past sum- mer. He asked as a leading question whether there might be a quartet. ' 'God forbid/ said Brahms, according to Kalbeck's account in his biography, 'I have not been so ambitious. I have put together only a few bits in the way of polkas and waltzes. If you would like to hear them, I'll play them for you.' I went to open the piano. 'No,' he protested, 'let it alone. It is not so simple as all that. We must get hold of Nazi.' He meant Ignaz Brull and a second piano. Now I realized that an important orchestral work, probably a symphony, was afoot, but I was afraid to ask anything more for I noticed that he already regretted having let his tongue run so far. "A few days later he invited me to an Ehrbar evening — a musical gathering in the piano warerooms of Friedrich Ehrbar. There I found Hanslick, Billroth, Brahms, Hans Richter, C. F. Pohl, and Gustav Dompke. While Brahms and Brull played, Hanslick and Bill- roth turned the manuscript pages. Dompke and I, together with Richter, read from the score.

After the wonderful Allegro, one of the most substantial, but also four-square and concentrated of Brahms' movements, I waited for one of those present to break out with at least a Bravo. I did not feel important enough to raise my voice before the older and more famous friends of the master. Richter murmured something in his blond beard which might have passed for an expression of approval; Brull cleared his throat and fidgeted about in his chair. The others stubbornly made no sound, and Brahms himself said nothing to break the paralyzed silence. Finally Brahms growled out, 'Well, let's go on!' — the sign to continue: whereupon Hanslick uttered a heavy sigh as if he felt that he must unburden himself before it was too late, and said quickly, 'The whole movement gave me the impression of two people pummelling each other in a frightful argument.' Everyone laughed, and the two continued to play. The strange- sounding, melody-laden Andante impressed me favorably, but again brought no comment, nor could 1 bring myself to break this silence with some clumsy banality." Kalbeck, who had borne nobly with Brahms up to this point, found the Scherzo "unkempt and heavily humorous," and the finale a splen- did set of variations which nevertheless in his opinion had no place ^iiiiiiiuiiiiiiiiiiiiii!iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiii'£ 1 R HMV direct I An Eye for Music I by MARTHA BURNHAM HUMPHREY imports | | A different and distinguished book f | on symphonic music in rehearsal | < Long-playing and | and performance.

But he kept his counsel for the moment, and the party broke up rather lamely with little said. When he met Brahms the next day it was clear that the composer had been taken " aback by this reception of his score. 'Naturally I noticed yesterday that the symphony didn't please you and I was much troubled. If people like Billroth, Hanslick, or you others do not like my music, who can be expected to like it?' 'I don't know what Hanslick and Billroth may think of it,' I answered, 'for I haven't said a word to them. I only know that if I had been fortunate enough to be the composer of such a work, and could have the satisfaction of knowing that I had put three such splendid movements together, I would not be disturbed. If it were for me to say, I would take the scherzo with its sudden main theme and banal second thoughts and throw it in the wastebasket, while the masterly chaconne would stand on its own as a set of variations, leaving the remaining two movements to find more suitable companions.' " Kalbeck was surprised at his own temerity in venturing so far with the sensitive and irascible composer, and waited for the heavens to descend, but Brahms received this judgment meekly, only protesting that the piano could give no adequate idea of the scherzo, which had no connection whatever with the keyboard, and that Beethoven in the Eroica and elsewhere had made use of a varia- tion finale. It was plain that he was in serious doubt as to whether the symphony would be accepted at all. He decided, however, after a long conversation, that having gone so far he must see it through, and TTTO TD THE TRIBUTARY THEATRE * MI/MM* OF BOSTON, INC. Friday and Saturday Evenings at 8:30 T. S.

The opinion of the discerning Von Biilow was more encouraging. He wrote after the first rehearsal: "Number four is stupendous, quite original, individual, and rock-like. Incomparable strength from start to finish." But Brahms may have discounted this as a personally biased opinion, as he certainly discounted the adoring Clara Schumann and Lisl Herzogenberg, when he weighed their words against the chilling skepticism of his male cronies. "The fourth symphony had never become a favorite work in Vienna. Received with reserve on its first performance, it had not since gained much more from the general public of the city than the respect sure to be accorded there to an important work by Brahms. Today, how- ever, a storm of applause broke out at the end of the first movement, not to be quieted until the composer, coming to the front of the artist's box in which he was seated, showed himself to the audience.

The applauding, shouting house, its gaze riveted on the figure standing in the balcony, so familiar and yet in present aspect so strange, seemed unable to let him go. Tears ran down his cheeks as he stood there, shrunken in form, with lined countenance, strained expression, white hair hanging lank; and through the audience there was a feeling as of a stifled sob, for each knew that they were saying farewell. Another outburst of applause and yet another; one more acknowledgment from the master; and Brahms and his Vienna had parted forever." Still another interesting tale is told by Miss May about the Fourth Symphony, and this refers to the summer of 1885, at Murzzuschlag, when it was nearing completion: "Returning one afternoon from a walk, he [Brahms] found that the. house in which he lodged had caught fire, and that his friends were busily engaged in bringing his papers, and amongst them the nearly finished manuscript of the new symphony, into the garden. He immediately set to work to help in getting the fire under, whilst Frau Fellinger sat out of doors with either arm outspread on the precious papers piled on each side of her."

[67] There was another moment in the history of the symphony when the score might conceivably have been lost. Brahms dispatched the manuscript to Meiningen in September, 1885, a few days before his own arrival there. "I remember," so Frederic Lamond has written, "how Bulow reproached Brahms about it, protesting that so valuable a manuscript as the symphony had been sent to Meiningen by simple post without registration! " 'What would have happened if the package had been lost?' asked Biilow. " 'Well, I should have had to compose the symphony again' ('Na, dann hdtte ich die Sinfonie halt* noch einmal komponieren miXssen') , was Brahms' gruff answer." "The theater emptied itself; I went 'to my dressing room behind the stage, and was about to go home. The members of the orchestra were putting their instruments away and some had already left when young Richard Strauss [then twenty], the second Kapellmeister in Meiningen, came running up and called to me: 'Lamond, help me bring the orchestra players together; the Duke wishes to have the symphony played again for himself alone.' I got hold of the second horn player, while Strauss mustered one player after another.

Through the peek hole in the curtain I could see the silhouette of Brahms at the conductor's desk, and about him the intent, deeply absorbed faces of the orchestra players, who looked ghostly in the dim light. The loge in which the Duke sat was also in semi-darkness; and now there began for the second time a performance of the Fourth Symphony! All was not serene between Brahms and Biilow on this memorable Sunday, a circumstance which Lamond has not mentioned. Although Biilow had rehearsed the symphony, Brahms took over the baton for the performance.

The incident proves the tactlessness of Brahms and the touchiness of Bulow. Yet Bulow carried the sym- phony, in that same season, through a "crusading" tour of Germany, Holland, and Switzerland. Florence May has remembered and described another notable per- formance of this symphony, a decade later, in Vienna, on March 7. :5:-, at a Philharmonic concert. Brahms was then a sick man; he had less than a month to live: "The performance stays vividly in my mind, I have heard con- summate performances in lata* years, but never has the overpower- ing and masterly finale sounded with such conviction as in the dark- ened empty theater where Brahms, like a mighty- conjuror, played with the assembled group of musicians for the listening Duke of Meiningen."

But the report of another witness," the pianist Frederic Lamond, contradicts this. He has told us that the concert began at five o'clock on a Sunday afternoon, and that the symphony was preceded by the Academic Festival Overture and the Violin Concerto, Adolf Brodsky appearing as soloist. The composer conducted. "The Symphony," writes Lamond, "brought little applause." And he goes on to relate an interesting postlude to this occasion: The Fourth Symphony was greeted at its first performances with a good deal of the frigidly which Brahms had feared. The com- poser was perforce admired and respected. The symphony was praised — with reservations. It was actually warmly received at Leipzig, where there was a performance at the Gewandhaus on February 18, 1886. In Vienna, where the symphony was first heard by the Philharmonic under Richter, on January 17, it was different.
