The chronology of the four overtures to Beethoven's only opera is not indicated by their numbers. The overture which was written last, in 1 8 14, is known as the overture to " Fidelio," and is played to " introduce the opera; while what was in reality the third " Leonore overture (Beethoven wrote it for a performance of the opera at Prague, in 1807, which did not come off) is called "Leonore" No. 1, the first "Leonore" (1805) being styled No. 2, the second and great- est "Leonore" (1806) No. 3. The three "Leonore" overtures are written in the same key, and have much that is related, especially Nos. 2 and 3, the colossal third being a masterly elaboration of the second. Discussion among litterateurs regarding Beethoven's inten- tion in repeating the trumpet signal in the dungeon scene, which is embodied in the overture played to-day, has brought forth the follow- ing note from Beethoven's biographer, Mr. A. W. Thayer, sent from Trieste March 5, 1888, to the New York Tribune : "What was the traditional piu forte in the repetition of the trumpet signal in Beethoven's 'Leonore' overtures? As given in 1805-06, the clos- ing scene was down in the dungeons of the prison. When the first signal is given, it is heard faintly, because all the doors and passages are supposed to be closed. On the repetition, these are all open ; and the crowd is rushing down into the vaults. The increased loud- ness of the trumpet shows Pizarro that the time to commit the mur- der is now passed. Years ago I had a long talk with Otto Jahn on this finale ; and we came to the conclusion that so much lovely music is lost by the change from the dungeons to the court, on, the whole, it would be better to restore th$ old form." "Taken as 'pure music,' — as a piece of concise construction and strict adherence to musical 'form'" — Grove says, "the 'Leonore, No. 3,' may not, perhaps, be so remarkable as the same great Dainty Fabrics For Dancing and Evening Dresses, House and Tea Gowns.

(5) mas /enure to ' Coriolan,' that miracle of stern, heroic grand- eur and compression, not wanting also in softer and more graceful lines. Hut is there not an interest higher even than musical sym- metry, — the interest awakened by variety and complexity, and by wild passion and longing, by suspense and rapture, such as that of which this great composition is so full from beginning to end, which animates every note from the colossal unison at the opening to the fiery speed of its close? "The only accusation that can be brought against the overture (if the writer may with great diffidence be allowed to express his opinion) appears to be that it is too vast, not only for an operatic ' prelude, but for the subject of the story on which Fidelio ' is based. Instead of foreshadowing the personal griefs and joys, how- momentous, of Leonore and Florestan, the anxieties of a gaoler, the perplexities of a clownish lover, the sufferings of a few prisoners, and the villany of a petty commandant,— a story which surely owes its vitality more to its connection with Beethoven's music than to any intrinsic force of its own, — instead of shadowing forth such comparatively petty occurrences as these, the overture to Leonore always appears to me to be a fitting prelude to any of the most tremendous events or most terrible catastrophes that have occurred inhistorv. The grief and the joy are the griefs and joys not of private persons, but of whole nations, the conflicts are the 'battles of shaking' of the Hebrew Prophet. The retreat from Moscow, the French Revolution itself, contain nothing more sus- tained, more impetuous, more mournful, more stirring, more pa- thetic, more triumphant, than this wonderful music-picture. As one illustration of what I mean, let me refer to the well-known trumpet- call, which, being played off the stage while the whole action of the orchestra is suspended, has so thrilling and mysterious an effect. Who can connect this passage in the overture with the distant signal of the arrival of the governor in the opera ? No one. No : it is a totally different thing. Heard in the overture, during the PRIESTLEY'S fl [ X/MV..VIV, j And all their Celebrated Dress Fabrics are GUARANTEED To be Perfectly Satisfactory to the Wearer. They are stamped every five yards, on the under side of the selvedge, with the manufacturers' name (B. PRIESTLEY & CO.) in gilt letters. (6) ; sudden pause which succeeds the tremendous hurry and rush of the instruments up the scale, it has all the effect of a summons to a vanquished nation to lay down its arms : there is a forlorn, desolate, dead-of-night effect about it that is overpowering to me, and I seem, as I listen, to be one of the starving wounded soldiers within the walls of the conquered city, trembling between the relief and the dishonor of the approaching surrender. And in the same way the whole overture appears to me to be lifted far above even the great- ness of the opera which follows it, — lifted from the particular to the universal, from the individual to the national, from the simple to the complex, from the petty to the tremendous, from a misfortune to a catastrophe." Suite, Op. 55. Tschaikowsky. Elegie. Valse melancholique. Scherzo. Tetna con Variazioni. In a late issue of the Vienna Nene Freie Presse, Dr. Hanslick gives some interesting extracts from an autobiographical sketch of the foremost Russian composer of to-day, supplemented by some— remarks of his own, of which the following is a translation : " Tschaikowsky writes: 'I was seventeen years old when I made the acquaintance of an Italian singing-master named Piccioli, the first person who interested himself in my musical condition. The influence he gained over me was enormous, and even now I have not quite outgrown it. He was an out-and-out enemy of German music and through him I became an enthusiastic admirer of Rossini, Bellini, and Donizetti considering it as an accepted fact that Mozart and NEW NIGHT LINE BOSTON, BROOKLYN, and LONG ISLAND CITY LIMITED TICKETS, $5.00.

    Synopsis Prologue Mythical times. At night in the mountains, the three Norns, daughters of Erda, weave the rope of destiny. They tell how Wotan ordered the World Ash Tree, from which his spear was once cut, to be felled and its wood piled around Valhalla. The burning of the pyre will mark the end of the old order. Suddenly, the rope breaks. Their wisdom ended, the Norns descend into the earth. Dawn breaks on the Valkyries’ rock, and Siegfried and Brünnhilde emerge. Having cast protective spells on Siegfried, Brünnhilde sends him into the world to do heroic deeds. As a pledge of his love, Siegfried gives her the ring that he took from the dragon Fafner, and she offers her horse, Grane, in return. Siegfried sets off on his travels. Act I In the hall of the Gibichungs on the banks of the Rhine, Hagen advises his half- siblings, Gunther and Gutrune, to strengthen their rule through marriage. He suggests Brünnhilde as Gunther’s bride and Siegfried as Gutrune’s husband. Since only the strongest hero can pass through the fire on Brünnhilde’s rock, Hagen proposes a plan: A potion will make Siegfried forget Brünnhilde and fall in love with Gutrune. To win her, he will claim Brünnhilde for Gunther. When Siegfried’s horn is heard from the river, Hagen calls him ashore. Gutrune offers him the potion. Siegfried drinks and immediately confesses his love for her.Ð When Gunther describes the perils of winning his chosen bride, Siegfried offers to use the Tarnhelm to transform himself into Gunther.

  • Musical Landmarks in New York
    MUSICAL LANDMARKS IN NEW YORK By CESAR SAERCHINGER HE great war has stopped, or at least interrupted, the annual exodus of American music students and pilgrims to the shrines T of the muse. What years of agitation on the part of America- first boosters—agitation to keep our students at home and to earn recognition for our great cities as real centers of musical culture—have not succeeded in doing, this world catastrophe has brought about at a stroke, giving an extreme illustration of the proverb concerning the ill wind. Thus New York, for in- stance, has become a great musical center—one might even say the musical center of the world—for a majority of the world's greatest artists and teachers. Even a goodly proportion of its most eminent composers are gathered within its confines. Amer- ica as a whole has correspondingly advanced in rank among musical nations. Never before has native art received such serious attention. Our opera houses produce works by Americans as a matter of course; our concert artists find it popular to in- clude American compositions on their programs; our publishing houses publish new works by Americans as well as by foreigners who before the war would not have thought of choosing an Amer- ican publisher. In a word, America has taken the lead in mu- sical activity. What, then, is lacking? That we are going to retain this supremacy now that peace has come is not likely. But may we not look forward at least to taking our place beside the other great nations of the world, instead of relapsing into the status of a colony paying tribute to the mother country? Can not New York and Boston and Chicago become capitals in the empire of art instead of mere outposts? I am afraid that many of our students and musicians, for four years compelled to "make the best of it" in New York, are already looking eastward, preparing to set sail for Europe, in search of knowledge, inspiration and— atmosphere.
