    | worldwide | austria PC Control 04 | 2016 Art, technology and nature come together to deliver a great stage experience Advanced stage control technology produces magical moments on Bregenz’s floating stage The seventy-year history of the Bregenz Festival in Austria has been accompanied by a series of technical masterpieces that make watching opera on Lake Constance a world-famous experience. From July to August, the floating stage on Lake Constance hosts spectacular opera performances that attract 7,000 spectators each night with their combination of music, singing, state-of-the- art stage technology and effective lighting against a spectacular natural backdrop. For Giacomo Puccini’s “Turandot”, which takes place in China, stage designer Marco Arturo Marelli built a “Chinese Wall” on the lake utilizing complex stage machinery controlled by Beckhoff technology. | PC Control 04 | 2016 worldwide | austria © Bregenzer Festspiele/Karl Forster © Bregenzer Festspiele/Karl The centerpiece of the floating stage is the round area at its center with an extendable rotating stage and two additional performance areas below it. The hinged floor features a video wall on its under- side for special visual effects, projecting various stage setting images. The tradition of the Bregenz Festival goes back to 1946, when the event started The backdrop that Marco Arturo Marelli designed for “Turandot” consists with a performance of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s musical comedy “Bastian of a 72-meter-long wall that snakes across the stage like a giant dragon. A and Bastienne” on two gravel barges anchored in the harbor. The space on the sophisticated structure of steel, concrete and wood holds the 29,000 pieces barges soon became too small, and the organizers decided to build a real stage in place.

  • Architecture and Space Our Congress Centre in Pictures and Figures Culture Meets Congress and Finds Him Devastatingly Good Looking
    Architecture and Space Our congress centre in pictures and figures Culture meets Congress and finds him devastatingly good looking Mrs Culture and Mr Congress appear from opposite sides of the plaza in front of Bregenz Festival House. She is very elegantly dressed, he has more of a sporty look. Both of them are presumably on their way to an event taking place in the centre. As they approach one another it is clear how glad they are to meet again. Culture: Hello! Well now, you look damn good. Congress: You’re not the first person to say so. Culture (a little taken aback): And you’re pretty self-confident with it. Congress: Did I just adopt the wrong tone? Culture : The right tone is more my domain. Congress: In the figurative sense, yes. But technically speaking it’s mine. Sound, lighting, stage set are my responsibilities, and I feel equal to them all. Culture : There seem to be developments in your life which I have never gone through. Congress: That’s right. I’m doing a lot of sport at the moment. Culture: Please don’t do too much. I’m not too keen on muscle-bound types. Congress: Don’t worry, I’m mainly building up my stamina. The body is my house, it’s got to be solid. Culture : The body is the house in which your soul and mind dwell. Congress: Yeah, them too. But without a strong body... Culture : The body matters a lot to me, too, but not in the sense of what’s external.

    Copyright by Scott Charles Schumann 2011 The Report Committee for Scott Charles Schumann Certifies that this is the approved version of the following report: Interpreting the Mourning Process Through Hindemith’s Trauermusik APPROVED BY SUPERVISING COMMITTEE: Supervisor: David Neumeyer James Buhler Interpreting the Mourning Process Through Hindemith’s Trauermusik by Scott Charles Schumann, B.Music Report Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Music The University of Texas at Austin May 2011 Abstract Interpreting the Mourning Process Through Hindemith’s Trauermusik Scott Charles Schumann, M.Music The University of Texas at Austin, 2011 Supervisor: David Neumeyer Paul Hindemith traveled to London in 1936 intending to give the British premiere of his concerto for viola and chamber orchestra titled Der Schwanendreher on 22 January. The premiere – and much else – was put into question a few minutes before midnight on 20 January 1936, however, when King George V passed away. The next day, Hindemith worked from 11:00 A.M. – 5:00 P.M. composing Trauermusik [Music of Mourning] for solo viola and string orchestra as a tribute to the recently deceased King of England. Thus, the circumstances surrounding the compositional origin of this piece invite a discussion of mourning in both a historical and musical context. In this paper, I will touch on issues such as how mourning defines us as humans and how emotions associated with mourning can be represented in music and experienced by the listener. I will illustrate how mourning helps us to understand the meaning of Trauermusik when it was written and first performed in 1936, following the death of iv King George V.

The opera treats the life of the Renaissance painter Mathias Grünewald. Even prior to the completion of the opera Hindemith joined together some of its instrumental parts and a new composition with material from the opera in order to form the Symphony ‘Mathis der Maler’. The titles of the three movements – Engelkonzert (Concert of Angels), Grablegung (Entombment), and Versuchung des heiligen Antonius (Temptation of St. Anthony) – were derived from panels of the Isenheim Altarpiece produced by Grünewald around 1510. The symphony was premiered with great success by the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra under the conductor Wilhelm Furtwängler on 12 March 1934. This performance was the last premiere of an orchestral work by Hindemith in Germany before the National Socialist regime issued a general performance prohibition applying to his works in the fall of 1936.
