Tel: (212) 594-3914 TANGLEWOOD The Berkshire Festival In August 1934, a group of music-loving summer residents of the Berkshires organized a series of three outdoor concerts at Interlaken, to be given by members of the New York Philharmonic under the direction of Henry Hadley. The venture was so successful that the promoters incorporated the Berkshire Symphonic Festival and repeated the experiment during the next summer. The Festival Committee then invited Serge Koussevitzky and the Boston Symphony Orchestra to take part in the following year's concerts. The orchestra's Trustees accepted, and on 13 August 1936 the Boston Symphony gave its first concerts in the Berkshires (at Holmwood, a former Vanderbilt estate, later the Center at Foxhollow). The series again consisted of three concerts and was given under a large tent, drawing a total of nearly 15,000 people. In the winter of 1936, Mrs. Gorham Brooks and Miss Mary Aspinwall Tappan offered Tanglewood, the Tappan family estate, with its buildings and 210 acres of lawns and meadows, as a gift to Koussevitzky and the orchestra. The offer was gratefully accepted, and on 5 August 1937 the festival's largest crowd so far assembled under a tent for the first Tanglewood concert, an all -Beethoven program. At the all-Wagner concert which opened the 1937 festival's second weekend, rain and thunder twice interrupted the performance of the Rienzi Overture and necessitated the omission altogether of the Siegfried "Forest Murmurs," music too delicate to be heard through the downpour. At the intermission, Miss Gertrude Robinson Smith, one of the festival's founders, made a fundraising appeal for the building of a permanent structure. The appeal was broadened by means of a printed circular handed out at the two remaining concerts, and within a short time enough money had been raised to begin active planning for a "music " pavilion. Eliel Saarinen, the eminent architect selected by Koussevitzky, proposed an elaborate design that went far beyond the immediate needs of the festival and, more important, went well beyond the budget of $100,000. His second, simplified plans were still too expensive, and he finally wrote that if the trustees insisted on remaining within their budget, they would have "just a shed," which "any builder could accomplish without the aid of an architect." The trustees then turned to a Stockbridge engineer, Joseph Franz, to make further simplifications in Saarinen's plans in order to lower the cost. The building that he erected remains, with modifications, to this day; it is still called simply "the Shed." The Shed was inaugurated for the first concert of the 1938 festival. It has echoed with the music of the Boston Symphony Orchestra every summer since, except for the war years 1942-45, and has become almost a place of pilgrimage to millions of concertgoers. By 1941, the Theatre-Concert Hall, the Chamber Music Hall, and several small studios — all part of the Berkshire Music Center, which had begun operations the preceding year— were finished, and the festival had so expanded its activities and its reputation for excellence that it attracted nearly 100,000 visitors. Today Tanglewood annually draws close to a quarter of a million visitors; in addition to the twenty-four regular concerts of the Boston Symphony, there are weekly chamber music concerts, "Prelude" concerts and open rehearsals, the annual Festival of Contemporary Music, and MORE MUSIC FORYOUR MONEY.

  • Critical Success Factors in Cello Training – a Comparative Study
    Critical success factors in cello training a comparative study by Anzél Gerber Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree PhD Music (Performance Practice) in the Department of Music Goldsmiths College, University of London Supervisor Professor Alexander Ivashkin 2008 (ii) DECLARATION I, Anzél Gerber, the undersigned, hereby declare that this dissertation, submitted in partial fulfilment for the degree PhD Music (Performance Practice), is my own original work. Signed: _______________________ Anzél Gerber (iii) ABSTRACT The research focused on the identification and ranking of critical success factors that contribute most significantly towards the training of a cello student. The empirical study was based on a sample of cello teachers in four countries selected for the study, namely Germany, Russia, the United Kingdom and the United States of America. A literature study, identifying a broad category of factors that could contribute towards successful cello training, formed the basis of the questionnaire. These critical success factors included the quality of the teacher, acquired skills, the talent and giftedness of the student, support rendered to the student, and the curriculum. Each of these factors comprised five sub factors. The respondents were required to rank these factors in order of importance. In the final analysis, they were requested to rank the five main factors. A statistical process of ranking (forced ranking) and Kruskal-Wallis was applied to rank and analyse the responses of the cello teachers in the survey. The critical success factors that contribute the most significantly towards successful cello training were identified and compared. ________________________________ (iv) PREFACE This study is in partial fulfilment for the degree PhD Music Performance at Goldsmiths College, University of London.

    VOCAL 78 rpm Discs FRANZ (FRANTISEK) PÁCAL [t]. Leitomischi, Austria, 1865-Nepomuk, Czechoslo- vakia, 1938. First an orchestral violinist, Pácal then studied voice with Gustav Walter in Vienna and sang as a chorister in Cologne, Bremen and Graz. In 1895 he became a member of the Vienna Hofoper and had a great success there in 1897 singing the small role of the Fisherman in Rossini’s William Tell. He then was promoted to leading roles and remained in Vienna through 1905. Unfor- tunately he and the Opera’s director, Gustav Mahler, didn’t get along, despite Pacal having instructed his son to kiss Mahler’s hand in public (behavior Mahler considered obsequious). Pacal stated that Mahler ruined his career, calling him “talentless” and “humiliating me in front of all the Opera personnel.” We don’t know what happened to invoke Mahler’s wrath but we do know that Pácal sent Mahler a letter in 1906, unsuccessfully begging for another chance. Leaving Vienna, Pácal then sang with the Prague National Opera, in Riga and finally in Posen. His rare records demonstate a fine voice with considerable ring in the upper register. -Internet sources 1858. 10” Blk. Wien G&T 43832 [891x-Do-2z]. FRÜHLINGSZEIT (Becker).

Examination Committee Member Dean Gronemeier, DMA, JD. Examination Committee Member Joe Bynum, MFA. Graduate College Faculty Representative ii ABSTRACT This doctoral dissertation provides information on how to develop the young dramatic soprano, specifically through more concentrated focus on the breath. Proper breathing is considered the single most important skill a singer will learn, but its methodology continues to mystify multitudes of singers and voice teachers. Voice professionals often write treatises with a chapter or two devoted to breathing, whose explanations are extremely varied, complex or vague. Young dramatic sopranos, whose voices are unwieldy and take longer to develop are at a particular disadvantage for absorbing a solid vocal technique. First, a description, classification and brief history of the young dramatic soprano is discussed along with a retracing of breath methodologies relevant to the young dramatic soprano’s development.

  • In 193X, Constance Rourke's Book American Humor Was Reviewed In
    OUR LIVELY ARTS: AMERICAN CULTURE AS THEATRICAL CULTURE, 1922-1931 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jennifer Schlueter, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Thomas Postlewait, Adviser Professor Lesley Ferris Adviser Associate Professor Alan Woods Graduate Program in Theatre Copyright by Jennifer Schlueter c. 2007 ABSTRACT In the first decades of the twentieth century, critics like H.L. Mencken and Van Wyck Brooks vociferously expounded a deep and profound disenchantment with American art and culture. At a time when American popular entertainments were expanding exponentially, and at a time when European high modernism was in full flower, American culture appeared to these critics to be at best a quagmire of philistinism and at worst an oxymoron. Today there is still general agreement that American arts “came of age” or “arrived” in the 1920s, thanks in part to this flogging criticism, but also because of the powerful influence of European modernism. Yet, this assessment was not, at the time, unanimous, and its conclusions should not, I argue, be taken as foregone. In this dissertation, I present crucial case studies of Constance Rourke (1885-1941) and Gilbert Seldes (1893-1970), two astute but understudied cultural critics who saw the same popular culture denigrated by Brooks or Mencken as vibrant evidence of exactly the modern American culture they were seeking. In their writings of the 1920s and 1930s, Rourke and Seldes argued that our “lively arts” (Seldes’ formulation) of performance—vaudeville, minstrelsy, burlesque, jazz, radio, and film—contained both the roots of our own unique culture as well as the seeds of a burgeoning modernism.

    Elysian Camerata In trying to find a name for this ensemble that we felt would be true to our self-image, we looked at words and ideas that would express how deeply we love this music. The term ‘elysian’ means literally ‘heavenly’. We could find no other word that so singularly and so completely expresses how we feel about our work. About us . Whether it be an intimate duo for violin and cello, a dramatic piano quintet or a grand string sextet, Elysian Camerata has built an enormous repertoire, along with its outstand- ing reputation, encompassing chamber music of all styles and ensemble sizes. For more than a decade the Elysians have shared their musical insight with countless audiences throughout Pennsylvania and beyond. Ever mindful of the composer’s original intent, these skilled musicians infuse their own passion and inspiration into the genius within the music to create some of the most exciting and musically provocative performances in the Phila- delphia area. Music from the early Baroque to recently composed and commissioned works are all part of the diverse fare that one can expect to find on an Elysian program. The Camerata’s core instrumentation of two violins, two violas, cello and piano serve as the basis from which it regroups into various sizes and types of ensembles. On occasion they invite guest artists of other instrumentation to join them in concert. The members of Elysian Camerata, all independently established musicians in Philadelphia and its environs, are involved in performance and teaching with numerous area ensembles and institutions. Their individual careers have involved them with most of the area's major ensembles and music schools.
