  • Homily 2Nd Sunday of Advent
    Homily Bar 5: 1-9 Ps 126: 1-2, 2-3, 4-5, 6 2nd Sunday of Advent – C Phil 1: 4-6, 8-11 Rev. Peter G. Jankowski Lk 3: 1-6 December 8-9, 2018 The story I am about to share with you is entitled, The Cellist of Sarajevo and was written by Paul Sullivan for a periodical called Hope Magazine. This is the story… As a pianist, I was invited to perform with cellist Eugene Friesen at the International Cello Festival in Manchester, England. Every two years a group of the world’s greatest cellists and others devoted to that unassuming instrument – bow makers, collectors, historians – gather for a week of workshops, master classes, seminars, recitals and parties. Each evening the six hundred or so participants assemble for a concert. The opening-night performance at the Royal Northern College of Music consisted of works for unaccompanied cello. There on the stage in the magnificent concert hall was a solitary chair. No piano, no music stand, no conductor’s podium. This was to be cello music in its purest, most intense form. The atmosphere was supercharged with anticipation and concentration. The world-famous cellist Yo-Yo Ma was one of the performers that April night in 1994, and there was a moving story behind the musical composition he would play: On May 27, 1992, in Sarajevo, one of the few bakeries that still had a supply of flour was making and distributing bread to the starving, war-shattered people. At 4:00 p.m. a long line stretched into the street.

Meernik, Acting Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Vizcarra, Juan Guillermo. Critical Study of Two Piano Transcriptions by August Stradal and the Transcriptions’ Sources: Alterations to the Score Based on Historical Evidence and Artistic Judgment. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), May 2015, 35 pp., 15 musical examples, bibliography, 6 titles. The fact that a number of pianists of the past two centuries adapted, embellished, and rearranged piano works for performance, be these original works or transcriptions, has been well documented throughout history. This thought, in addition to the fact that Stradal’s scores needed revision, encouraged me to make alterations to Stradal’s transcriptions and served as a strong incentive to write the current study. In it, I will comment on the alterations performed to segments of Stradal’s piano transcriptions of Wagner’s Schluβ der letzten Aufzuges (End of the last Act) from Siegfried and Trauermusik aus dem letzten Aufzug (Siegfried’s Funeral March) from Götterdämmerung. These changes have the purpose of reflecting in the piano as closely as possible the sonorous reality of the transcriptions’ operatic sources and, by doing so, making Stradal’s arrangements more effective for performance.

  • Franz Liszt's Early Weimar Period Piano Waltzes
    Franz Liszt’s Early Weimar Period Piano Waltzes A document submitted to The Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS In the Performance Studies Division Of the College-Conservatory of Music 2017 by Wei-Ting Yin B.A., National Taiwan Normal University, 2004 M.M., National Taiwan Normal University, 2006 Abstract The piano concert waltz genre had already been established by Carl Maria von Weber, who had expanded the traditional waltz by combining several sequential dances, adding an introduction and coda, and using the first waltz as a refrain to create a rondo-like form. Weber therefore elevated the waltz genre to a concert piece and influenced later composers like Chopin and Liszt. Liszt’s waltzes from the early 1850s are either based on the concert waltz type innovated by Weber or draw on previous compositions by Liszt and other composers. Franz Liszt published Soirées de Vienne, Valse-Impromptu, and Trois Caprices-Valses during the years 1850–53. Among these waltzes, Valse-Impromptu and Trois Caprices-Valses are based on previous versions composed from 1836–43. This document discusses Liszt’s compositional style in the waltzes from the early 1850s through an analysis of their formal structure, tonality, harmony, tempo changes, and virtuosic writing. It also includes the history of the piano waltz, the waltz style of Schubert, Weber, and Chopin, and the historical background of piano waltzes by Liszt from the early 1850s. In the end, my document will shed some light on the understanding of the stylistic diversity of Liszt’s piano waltzes from his early Weimar years.

  • Musical Borrowings in the Music for Double Bass by Giovanni Bottesini: a Reconsideration Beyond the Operatic Paraphrases
    Musical Borrowings in the Music for Double Bass by Giovanni Bottesini: A Reconsideration Beyond the Operatic Paraphrases A document submitted to the The Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati In partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS in the Performance Studies Division of the College-Conservatory of Music 2007 by Jaime Ramírez-Castilla B.M., Javeriana University, Bogotá-Colombia, 1999 M.M., University of Cincinnati, 2004 Committee Chair: Dr. Robert Zierolf ABSTRACT Giovanni Bottesini is commonly considered one of the most outstanding and influential nineteenth-century composers for the double bass. His compositional output expanded the technical and expressive possibilities of his instrument beyond the boundaries expected by both composers and audiences. Nowadays, a large portion of Bottesini’s compositions forms part of the required repertoire in school syllabi, orchestral auditions, solo competitions, and recital programs. Among the traditional interpretations of Bottesini’s music for the double bass there has been a strong reliance on his influence from Italian opera. Although Italian opera played a fundamental role in the musical culture of the nineteenth century, it is also very important to consider other influences that affected Bottesini’s compositional style. Through the study of the musical borrowings present in Bottesini’s output it is possible to expand understanding of his compositional style and the different influences he received from other musical traditions. In this document I propose to reconsider Bottesini’s output by cross-relating his techniques of musical borrowing with those used by other composers and also with the different sources of the musical material that was borrowed.
