    Courtesy of Eric Nelson, as posted on Klarinet, 9 and 11 Feb 1997. Eric Nelson is clarinetist with The Lightwood Duo, an actively touring clarinet/guitar duo. Their CDs are available through their website, http://www.lightwoodduo.com. About two weeks ago, there were some questions about Aage Oxenvad on the list. Having studied Nielsen and clarinet at the Royal Conservatory in Copenhagen [in 1979], I would like to pass on some first-hand information on Oxenvad. There are two major obstacles to acquiring accurate information about Danish music. First, much of the info exists only in the Danish language; not exactly a familiar language to most. Second, the Danes are not inclined to value the sharing of such information. To quote Tage Scharff, the clarinet professor with whom I studied: "You Americans [and English as well] love to get together and give lectures, deliver papers, and hold conferences. Here in Denmark, vi spiller! [we PLAY]". He was quite amused that I, a performing clarinetist, would be so interested in such material. On a posting on this list, Jarle Brosveet wrote: "In the first place Oxenvad did not inspire Nielsen to write the concerto, although he was the first to perform it. It was written at the request of Nielsen's benefactor and one-time student Carl Johan Michaelsen. Second, Oxenvad, who is described as a choleric, made this unflattering remark about Nielsen and the concerto: "He must be able to play the clarinet himself, otherwise the would hardly have been able to find the worst notes to play." Oxenvad performed it on several occasions with no apparent success although he reportedly did all he could, whatever that is supposed to mean.

It has been a love affair that began when Paul Green was only eight years old. The orchestra teacher wanted Paul Green to play the viola, but once the young Paul heard the sound of the clarinet and picked it up in grammar school music class, it was clarinet or nothing. That determination fueled a passion for music and started an adventure that has led him around the world, thrilling audiences in his path, in an unusual career that few can match. Clearly a budding talent, Green began studying privately with the noted clarinet pedagogue Leon Russianoff. Accomplished at age 13, he was recommended to Leonard Bernstein by Stanley Drucker, first clarinetist of the New York Philharmonic. Green was chosen by Leonard Bernstein to be a featured guest in a televised Young People’s Concert with the New York Philharmonic in 1962, performing and recording Saint-Saens’ Carnival of the Animals as a thirteen year old.

  • Flute: Late Style in Carl Nielsen’S Works for Flute
    THE “ARCADIAN” FLUTE: LATE STYLE IN CARL NIELSEN’S WORKS FOR FLUTE A thesis submitted to the Division of Research and Advanced Studies of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS in the Performance Studies Division of the College-Conservatory of Music 2004 by Beth E. Chandler B.M., Baylor University, 1993 M.M., New England Conservatory, 1996 Committee Chair: bruce d. mcclung, Ph.D. ABSTRACT Revered as Denmark’s most celebrated musical figure and regarded as one of the finest, albeit under recognized composers, Carl Nielsen (1865–1931) holds a place as one of the most individual and creative artists of his time. Straddling the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and with consideration to the dramatically changing musical climate of that time, Nielsen’s vast output is stylistically complex. His music spans an array of styles, with elements of Romanticism in his early works, to an outright rejection of these same principles and an adoption of extensive progressivism in later works, all the while maintaining features of neoclassicism. There are six known works by Carl Nielsen that include flute in a solo or chamber role. These works date from his late, mature compositional period and include a short piece for solo flute from the incidental music to Aladdin, Op. 34 (1918–19); three pieces from the incidental music to Moderen (The mother), Op. 41 (1920): “Taagen letter” (The fog is lifting) for flute and piano or harp, “Børnene spiller” (The children are playing) for solo flute, and “Tro og håb spiller” (Faith and hope are playing) for flute and viola; the Wind Quintet, Op.

  • An Analysis of Sonata Form in Clarinet Concertos by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Louis Spohr, and Carl Maria Von Weber
    An Analysis of Sonata Form in Clarinet Concertos by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Louis Spohr, and Carl Maria von Weber A document submitted to The Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS in the Performance Studies Division of the College-Conservatory of Music 2012 by Wen-Mi Chen B.M., Peabody Conservatory of Music of The Johns Hopkins University, 2000 M.M., Peabody Conservatory of Music of The Johns Hopkins University, 2003 Committee Chair: Steven Cahn, Ph.D. Committee Member: Ronald Aufmann, Professor Committee Member: Samuel Ng, Ph.D. Abstract Sonata Theory recognizes five types of sonatas based on their rotational designs. The first movement of most eighteenth-century concertos is classified as a Type 5 sonata (concerto movement) and is the most complicated sonata design due to the great variation that exists among individual Type 5 movements. This document contains a brief introduction to Hepokoski and Darcy’s Sonata Theory and a summary of the Type 5 sonata. Chapters two, three, and four are extensive studies and analyses of the clarinet concertos composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Louis Spohr, and Carl Maria von Weber. Comprehensive comparisons of these concertos are provided at the end of chapters three and four. Diagrams 2, 3, and 4 are the result of examining these concerto movements. They indicate the sections, zones, and modules of a sonata form in the movements. Appendix A is a list of terms and abbreviations that are used in the analyses. In addition, Hepokoski and Darcy’s Type 5 sonata default settings and options are included in Appendix B.
