  • Reinhardt's Choice: Some Alternatives to Weill?
    DAVID DREW Reinhardt's Choice: Some Alternatives to Weill? The pretexts for the present paper are the author's essays >Der T#g der Ver­ heissung and the Prophecies of jeremiah<, Tempo, 206 (October 1998), 11- 20, and >Der T#g der Verheissung: Weill at the Crossroads<, 1impo, 208 (April 1999), 335-50. As suggested in the preface to the second essay, the paper is intended to function both as a free-standing entity and as an extended bridge between the last section of the earlier essay and the first section of its successor. According to Meyer Weisgal's detailed account of the origins of The Eter­ nal Road, Reinhardt had no inkling of his plans until their November 1933 meeting in Paris.1 Weisgal began by outlining the idea of a biblical drama that would for the first time evoke the Old Testan1ent in all its breadth rather than in isolated episodes. At the end of his account, according to Weisgal, Reinhardt sat motionless and in silence before saying »very sim­ ply<< »But who will be the author of this biblical play and who will write the mu­ sic?<< . »You are the master<< , I said, ••It is up to you to select them<<. Again there was a long uncomfortable pause and Reinhardt said that he would ask Franz Werfel and Kurt Weill to collaborate with him. With or without prior notice2, the problems inherent in Weisgal's com­ mission were so complex that Reinhardt would have had good reason for Meyer W. Weisgal, >Beginnings of The Eternal Road<, in: T"he Etemal Road (New York 1937 - programme-book for the production by MWW and Crosby Gaige at the Man­ hattan Opera House), pp.

    un :al Chapter II a nd or Paris , 1918-45 ,-e ed MARK D EVOTO l.S. as es. 21 March 1918 was the first day of spring. T o celebrate it, the German he army, hoping to break a stalemate that had lasted more than three tat years, attacked along the western front in Flanders, pushing back the nv allied armies within a few days to a point where Paris was within reach an oflong-range cannon. When Claude Debussy, who died on 25 M arch, was buried three days later in the Pere-Laehaise Cemetery in Paris, nobody lingered for eulogies. The critic Louis Laloy wrote some years later: B. Th<' sky was overcast. There was a rumbling in the distance. \Vas it a storm, the explosion of a shell, or the guns atrhe front? Along the wide avenues the only traffic consisted of militarr trucks; people on the pavements pressed ahead hurriedly ... The shopkeepers questioned each other at their doors and glanced at the streamers on the wreaths. 'II parait que c'ctait un musicicn,' they said. 1 Fortified by the surrender of the Russians on the eastern front, the spring offensive of 1918 in France was the last and most desperate gamble of the German empire-and it almost succeeded. But its failure was decisive by late summer, and the greatest war in history was over by November, leaving in its wake a continent transformed by social lb\ convulsion, economic ruin and a devastation of human spirit. The four-year struggle had exhausted not only armies but whole civiliza­ tions.

In 1913 he moved with his family to Zurich, where he attended the Conservatory for two years before moving to Paris to study at the Conservatory there in a range of musical subjects, including violin. While there he got to know his fellow students Germaine Tailleferre, Georges Auric, and Darius Milhaud, all of whom would later be lumped together as "Les nouveaux jeunes" and later (along with Francis Poulenc and Louis Durey) "Les Six" in association with Satie and Cocteau, although the interests of the individual composers soon outstripped allegiance to the group.

In 1926 he married Andrée Vaurabourg,, a pianist and fellow student at the Paris Conservatoire,, on the condition that they live in separate apartments. They lived apart for the duration of their marriage, with the exceptions of one year from 1935 to 1936 following Vaurabourg’s injury in a car accident, and the last year of Honegger’s life, when he was not well enough to live alone. They had one daughter, Pascale, born in 1932. Honeggeralsohad aa son, Jean-Claude (1926–2003), with the singer Claire Croiza.. In the early 1920s, Honegger shot to fame with his “dra- matic psalm” Le roi David (“King David”), which is still in the choral repertoire. Between World War I and World War II, Honegger was very prolific. He composed the music for Abel Gance’s epic 1927 film, Napoléon..

  • Program Notes by Michael Moore a Rose in Winter Performed December 15/16, 2000
    Program Notes by Michael Moore A Rose in Winter Performed December 15/16, 2000 The Rose in Winter has become one of the most enduring of all Christmas symbols and has given rise to an entire genre of Christmas song. The image originally derived from the allegorical prophecy of Isaiah that the Messiah would be a new shoot arising from the stem of Jesse, father of David the King. This new shoot became a rose in the anonymous medieval poem that Michael Praetorius set in the hauntingly beautiful carol Es ist ein Ros entsprungen (Lo, how a rose e'er blooming) and in Herbert Howells' setting of a similar medieval text, A Spotless Rose. In the Middle Ages the rose also began to be associated with the Virgin Mary as well. It was a symbol of joy, and the name rosarium, literally a rose garden, was applied to an early practice of the rosary in which a litany of fifty joys of Mary were recited alternating with Aves. There is no rose, another anonymous medieval text heard here in settings by Benjamin Britten and John Joubert, is a Marian rose carol. The Rose in Winter also figures prominently in Christmas miracles. There is the story of the shepherd girl who was embarrassed that she had no gift to offer the Baby Jesus. An angel, seeing her distress, bent down and swept aside the snow to reveal roses. That story is recapitulated in what Catholic tradition holds is a miraculous appearance of the Virgin Mary in Mexico in December, 1531, in which she directed an Indian peasant to a place where he found roses blooming in the middle of winter.
