Steve Hoddell
Desert Island Discs – Steve Hoddell I would estimate that there are several hundred pieces of music that I would miss should I be marooned on a desert island, so the choice of just eight is a serious challenge. There are, of course, some pieces that I would be more or less willing to go to a desert island in order never to have to hear them again, a list which is headed by the Radetzky March by Johann Strauss. In compiling this list, I have cheated, in that I decided to exclude pieces already chosen by others. That takes out the Bach – Second Partita for Unaccompanied Violin, of which the final movement, the Chaconne is probably my all time number one. It also removes Sibelius Symphony No 7, which in reality I would be hard put to to do without. The eight that remain are therefore: (1) Verdi – Falstaff. His last opera; throughout the time he was composing this he insisted that it was not for performance but merely for his own pleasure. Fortunately it was then performed, and it remains one of the finest comic operas ever written. Julian Budden, writing about operas based on Shakespeare many years ago, placed them in three categories. Category 1 – those where the opera is a greater work than the play; Category 2, those where the two are of equivalent standing; and Category 3 where the opera is inferior to the play. The occupants of each category were intriguing. In category 1 there was one opera, Verdi’s Falstaff. In category 2 there was one opera, Verdi’s Otello; all other operas based on Shakespeare were dismissed into category 3. -

Giacomo Puccini – Quartetto in D” Per Archi
Bulletin of the Transilvania University of Braşov Series VIII: Performing Arts • Vol. 11 (60) No. 1 – 2018 Giacomo Puccini – Quartetto in D” per archi Raluca TONESCU (IRIMIA)1 Abstract: Giacomo Puccini’s works for a string quartet are: three minutes, the Crisantemi elegy and the String Quartet in D Major, which is the only complete piece we have. This work has four parts and was composed between 1881 and 1883, when Puccini was studying at Milan Conservatory. This quartet was first published in its complete version by the Italian publishing house Casa Ricordi. All four parts of the Quartet were discovered in different places, either as manuscripts or as transcriptions for other chamber works made by his younger brother, Michele Puccini. The fact that all these parts were put together in one piece has been subject of thorough research, of which Dieter Schickling is the most important. In his volume about Puccini, The works of Giacomo Puccini. A complete catalogue, he describes all the composer’s manuscripts in detail. Key-words: Giacomo Puccini, quartetto in D. 1. Introduction String Quartet's history indicates the first signs of the occurrence of the Quartet as genre in the compositions of Giuseppe Tartini and Alessandro Scarlatti, as sonatas a quarto from their creations, VII-VIII century (Bughici 1978, 88). If Joseph Haydn (1732-1809) is for the Symphony and for piano sonatas a guide on the way of completion, for the String Quartet he is the creator. The structure of the beginning Quartets is five parts: allegro-adagio-allegro-minuet- minuet- allegro finale, and after only a few years, starting with op. -
