  • Marco Polo – the Label of Discovery
    Marco Polo – The Label of Discovery Doubt was expressed by his contemporaries as to the truth of Marco Polo’s account of his years at the court of the Mongol Emperor of China. For some he was known as a man of a million lies, and one recent scholar has plausibly suggested that the account of his travels was a fiction inspired by a family dispute. There is, though, no doubt about the musical treasures daily uncovered by the Marco Polo record label. To paraphrase Marco Polo himself: All people who wish to know the varied music of men and the peculiarities of the various regions of the world, buy these recordings and listen with open ears. The original concept of the Marco Polo label was to bring to listeners unknown compositions by well-known composers. There was, at the same time, an ambition to bring the East to the West. Since then there have been many changes in public taste and in the availability of recorded music. Composers once little known are now easily available in recordings. Marco Polo, in consequence, has set out on further adventures of discovery and exploration. One early field of exploration lay in the work of later Romantic composers, whose turn has now come again. In addition to pioneering recordings of the operas of Franz Schreker, Der ferne Klang (The Distant Sound), Die Gezeichneten (The Marked Ones) and Die Flammen (The Flames), were three operas by Wagner’s son, Siegfried. Der Bärenhäuter (The Man in the Bear’s Skin), Banadietrich and Schwarzschwanenreich (The Kingdom of the Black Swan) explore a mysterious medieval world of German legend in a musical language more akin to that of his teacher Humperdinck than to that of his father.

A man who has been called one of the most neglected composers in music history. So obscure was he that in 1946 the Swedish postal service, given the choice between putting Franz Berwald or the Swedish Agricultural Show on a postage stamp, went with the farmers. Yet he is known as Sweden’s best romantic composer and he wrote three chamber works with clarinet. They are a septet, a quartet and a serenade. How is it that a composer who is now finally beginning to collect some acclaim was over looked for so long? Recognition of Franz Berwald is increasing with notable recordings by conductors such as Esa Pekka Solonen and Herbert Blomstedt as well as scholars devoting a full symposium to him in 1996 and, certainly, he is not the only composer to be essentially lost in music history. However, to be considered Sweden’s “best Romantic composer,” leads one to question the factors that have contributed to his obscurity. The Berwald family was a large musical family and quite active in 18th and 19th century European orchestras in Germany, Denmark, Sweden and Russia. The family can be traced back to Franz Berwald’s great great grandfather Johan Daniel Berwald, said to have held the monopoly of music for weddings and funerals in the town of Königsberg in eastern part of Germany.1 Given the 18th century practice of having a plethora of children the family grew quickly.

  • Franz Berwald (1796–1868)
    1 Franz Berwald (1796–1868) The Symphonies Franz Adolf Berwald was born in Stockholm in 1796 – one year after the death of that ‘Anacreon’ of Swedish parody song-writers Carl Michael Bellman and one year before the birth of Franz Schubert. Berwald’s father, Christian, who had studied the violin with Benda in Berlin, settled in the Swedish capital as a member of the Royal Opera Orchestra in 1773 (several years before Joseph Kraus) and married the daughter of a Stockholm brewer in 1789. Franz followed in his footsteps and made rapid progress on the violin – performing concertos by Pleyel and Viotti in Uppsala at the age of eleven and joining the Royal Opera Orchestra five years later. His earliest compositions date from 1817 – two lost works (an orchestral Fantasia and a Septet) and a rather naive concerto for two violins. Three years later he composed a more substantial Violin Concerto (in C sharp minor!) and wrote his first symphony. Considering his training and background, it is not surprising that Berwald composed some wonderful chamber music – the two late String Quartets (1849) and the surviving Septet in particular. It is strange, however, that Berwald’s writing for violin is not particularly idiomatic and is often extremely difficult (as can be seen in the taxing first violin part of the early symphonic fragment). Symphony in A major (1820) (fragment completed by Duncan Druce) All that remains of the first Symphony (in A, 1820) is an autograph manuscript score of the first movement from which the ending has been torn off. Since the musical argument of this fragment is so strong (and even substantially longer than the first movements of any of the four existing symphonies) I approached my friend and colleague Duncan Druce to make a completion for me.

  • Franz Berwald (1796–1868)
    1 Franz Berwald (1796–1868) The 4 Symphonies Franz Berwald is the most commanding composer Sweden has thus far produced, and the leading Scandinavian symphonist before Sibelius. Yet he remained in relative obscurity in his own lifetime and only found recognition during the first decade or so of the present century, thanks largely to the championship of such important Swedish figures as the conductor-composers Tor Aulin and Wilhelm Stenhammar. Why did Berwald’s music make so little headway either in his native country or anywhere else in Europe, and why was he given the cold shoulder by the Swedish musical establishment of his day? First, there is the fact that he absented himself from Stockholm during crucial periods of his career (from 1828 to 1842, and from 1846 to 1849); secondly, it is worth recalling that the Berwald his countrymen encountered was the composer of operettas such as Modehandlerskan (The Modiste) and Jag går i kloster (I Take the Veil) and cantatas including Konung Carl XII’s seger vid Narva (Charles XII’s Victory at Narva), all heard during his return to Stockholm between 1843 and 1846. These works give a very different picture of the composer than that formed by posterity from the four symphonies on which his reputation now chiefly rests. Moreover, in the 1840s and ‘50s, there was no really first-class symphony orchestra in Sweden to play the symphonies, indeed no permanent orchestra at all apart from that of the Royal Opera, Stockholm, and no effort to put symphony concerts on a regular footing until the 1870s.
