Oral history is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well- informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ************************************ All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Felix Khuner dated December 7, 1989. The manuscript is thereby made available for research purposes. All literary rights in the manuscript, including the right to publish, are reserved to The Bancroft Library of the University of California, Berkeley.

  • Juilliard String Quartet Today, with (L to R) Smirnoff, Krosnick, Rhodes and Copes
    Opposite page: The Juilliard String Quartet today, with (l to r) Smirnoff, Krosnick, Rhodes and Copes. Inset: In the late 1950s with Hillyer, Mann, Isidore Cohen and Claus Adam. he Juilliard String Quartet is arguably America’s best-known chamber music ensemble—and certainly one of the most admired. And although its current members are only in middle age, the quartet itself cannot escape the adjective “venerable.” Violinist Robert Mann founded the T group in 1946 with violist Raphael Hillyer, cellist Arthur Winograd and the late violinist Robert Koff. With Mann in the first violinist’s chair for an amazing fifty of the ensemble’s sixty-one years— and with remarkably few other personnel changes—the quartet has performed and recorded, taught aspiring chamber musicians, championed American com- posers, and introduced at least two generations of concertgoers to the European masterworks. In 1962—with Isidore Cohen as second violinist and Claus Adam as cellist—the Juilliard succeeded the legendary Budapest String Quartet as ensemble-in-residence at the Library of Congress and went on to perform there often broadcasting live concerts nationwide for 40 years. In recognition of its extraordinary contribution to the nation’s cultural #life, the Juilliard String Quartet has been named the 2008 recipient of Chamber Music America’s Richard J. Bogomolny National Service Award, the organization’s highest honor. On January 6, 2008, founding members Mann, Winograd, and Hillyer will #join Earl Carlyss (violin II from 1966 to 1986) and the current quartet— violinists Joel Smirnoff and Ronald Copes, violist Samuel Rhodes, and cellist Joel Krosnick—to receive the award at CMA’s Thirtieth Anniversary National Conference in New York City.

This forms an introduction to the spiky, almost neo-classical music of the Comodo, but this is not allowed to develop very far before a chant-like unison theme intervenes, clearly developed from the Grave. The Comodo Egon Wellesz (1885-1974) music then forges ahead, but at the climax the Grave tempo returns and the lyrical following theme fl owers into a kind of majestic chorale before the peaceful close of the movement.
