  • The Musical Heritage of the Lutheran Church Volume I
    The Musical Heritage of the Lutheran Church Volume I Edited by Theodore Hoelty-Nickel Valparaiso, Indiana The greatest contribution of the Lutheran Church to the culture of Western civilization lies in the field of music. Our Lutheran University is therefore particularly happy over the fact that, under the guidance of Professor Theodore Hoelty-Nickel, head of its Department of Music, it has been able to make a definite contribution to the advancement of musical taste in the Lutheran Church of America. The essays of this volume, originally presented at the Seminar in Church Music during the summer of 1944, are an encouraging evidence of the growing appreciation of our unique musical heritage. O. P. Kretzmann The Musical Heritage of the Lutheran Church Volume I Table of Contents Foreword Opening Address -Prof. Theo. Hoelty-Nickel, Valparaiso, Ind.

ISBN 978-951-51-0001-6 (PDF) 5 Esipuhe Tämä tutkimusprojekti käynnistyi unesta. Se ei ollut ilmestys eikä painajainen. Olin miettinyt tiiviin työrupeamani keskellä jatko-opintoja, mutta aihe oli täysin auki. Polun pää puuttui. Al- kuvuodesta 2010 yhtenä arkiaamuna herättyäni ensimmäinen ajatus oli, että tutkimukseni voisi käsitellä ordinaatiokaavoja. Unen sisältöä en muistanut, mutta tunsin välittömästi iloa ajatuk- sesta. Tässä on tie. Tämä ilo on säilynyt koko prosessin ajan väsymyksenkin hetkinä. En ollut aikaisemmissa opinnoissani työskennellyt ordinaatioteeman parissa, mutta virkateologiasta olin aina ollut kiinnostunut. Lähdin töiden ohessa ottamaan asiasta selvää. Pian huomasin, kuinka teema oli hedelmällinen ja Suomessa vähän tutkittu. Esitin ajatukseni prof. Jyrki Knuutilalle, joka innostui välittömästi asiasta. Hän osasi auttaa ratkaisevalla alkuaskeleella eli tutkimustehtävän rajauksessa ja on ollut tukena koko matkan. Kun tehtävä ja dispositio hahmottuivat, otin yhteyttä prof. Miikka Ruokaseen, joka avoimuu- dellaan rohkaisi tutkimussuunnitelman tekemiseen ja dogmatiikan jatko-opiskelijaksi. Luvan jatko-opintoihin sainkin vuoden 2010 lopulla. Prof. Ruokasesta tuli tutkimukseni valvoja. Toi- seksi ohjaajaksi prof. Knuutilan lisäksi nimettiin prof. Risto Saarinen, joka suurella ammatti- taidollaan on ollut apuna tutkimuksen eri vaiheissa. Prof. Ruokasen jäätyä virkavapaalle prof. Pekka Kärkkäinen vei avuliaasti projektin loppuun. Asiantuntevat ja tarkat esitarkastajat dos. Jari Jolkkonen ja dos. Kari Kopperi veivät kommenteillaan tutkimustani eteenpäin.

  • Johann Sebastian Bach's St. John Passion from 1725: a Liturgical Interpretation
    Johann Sebastian Bach’s St. John Passion from 1725: A Liturgical Interpretation MARKUS RATHEY When we listen to Johann Sebastian Bach’s vocal works today, we do this most of the time in a concert. Bach’s passions and his B minor Mass, his cantatas and songs are an integral part of our canon of concert music. Nothing can be said against this practice. The passions and the Mass have been a part of the Western concert repertoire since the 1830s, and there may not have been a “Bach Revival” in the nineteenth century (and no editions of Bach’s works for that matter) without Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy’s concert performance of the St. Matthew Passion in the Berlin Singakademie in 1829.1 However, the original sitz im leben of both large-scaled works like his passions, and his smaller cantatas, is the liturgy. Most of his vocal works were composed for use during services in the churches of Leipzig. The pieces unfold their meaning in the context of the liturgy. They engage in a complex intertextual relationship with the liturgical texts that frame them, and with the musical (and theological) practices of the liturgical year of which they are a part. The following essay will outline the liturgical context of the second version of the St. John Passion (BWV 245a) Bach performed on Good Friday 1725 in Leipzig. The piece is a revision of the familiar version of the passion Bach had composed the previous year. The 1725 version of the passion was performed by the Yale Schola Cantorum in 2006, and was accompanied by several lectures I gave in New Haven and New York City.

    Hochschule FÜR MUSIK Freiburg Meisterkurse für junge Talente 3.–5. März 2017 PROF. AGNES DORWARTH Blockflöte, Blockflötenensemble Agnes Dorwarth studierte an der Hochschule für Musik Freiburg Block- und Querflöte und schloss ihre künstlerische Ausbildung auf der Blockflöte mit dem Konzertexamen ab. Von 1982 bis 1984 folgten weiterführende Studien am Mozarteum in Salzburg im Fach Historische Aufführungspraxis bei Nikolaus Harnoncourt. Seit 1980 unterrichtet sie Blockflöte, Consort- und Kammermusik sowie Instrumentalmethodik an der Hochschule für Musik Freiburg, 2003 wurde sie als Professorin für Blockflöte berufen. In dieser Zeit engagierte sie sich mit ihren Fachkollegen für die Gründung des Instituts für Historische Aufführungspraxis und übernahm nach dessen Gründung von 2004 bis 2007 die Institutsleitung. Neben ihrer solistischen und kammermusikalischen Konzerttätigkeit hat sich ihr künstlerischer Schwerpunkt mehr und mehr auf das Komponieren verlagert. Es entstanden zahlreiche Werke, hauptsächlich für Blockflöte, aber auch für Streichquartett, Gesang, Klavier und größere Ensembles. Viele dieser Solo- und Ensemble-Kompositionen wurden speziell als Wettbewerbsbeiträge für Jugend musiziert geschrieben (u.a. Das Große Lalula, Der Hecht, Nein, Galgenbruders Lied an Sophie, Die Henkersmaid, Gespräch einer Hausschnecke mit sich selbst nach Gedichten von Christian Morgenstern und Articulator I – XII). Neben der Unterrichtstätigkeit an der Hochschule liegt ein wei- terer pädagogischer Schwerpunkt von Agnes Dorwarth auf der Vorbereitung junger Blockflötisten auf ein zukünftiges Blockflötenstudium und begleitend dazu zum Wettbewerb Jugend musiziert, aus dem zahlreiche ihrer Schüler und Schülerinnen als erste Bundespreisträger hervorgegangen sind. PROF. REGINA KABIS Gesang Mit 11 Jahren sang sie bereits ihre erste solistische Kinderrolle am Stadtheater in Freiburg – die Initi- alzündung, um sich mit Begeisterung dem Gesang zu verschreiben.

  • Top 20 Reasons to Purchase Lutheran Service Book by Rev
    Top 20 Reasons to Purchase Lutheran Service Book By Rev. Michael Poynter 1. Our current hymnal, The Lutheran Hymnal (TLH), is now 65 years old—enough said. —Then again, maybe not. Here are another 19 reasons. 2. We have really only one Divine Service available for our use on Sunday morning from The Lutheran Hymnal—Page 15. Page 5 has the same musical settings as page 15, and in fact, these services are essentially the same except that page 5 does not have the communion liturgy. Because of our entertainment/media-oriented society, a majority of people look for variety. LSB fulfills this desire, yet at the same time keeps this variety strictly in line with the historic liturgy of the church. The new hymnal—Lutheran Service Book (LSB) has 5 Divine Services with communion available for our use on Sunday morning, all of which could be used on non-communion Sundays. This in a sense means we would actually have 10 services we could utilize for worship. In addition to these, the service of Prayer and Preaching, Matins, and Morning Prayer, could also be used on non-communion Sundays, which would give us a total of 13 different services our congregation could choose to use on Sunday morning. There are also the services of Vespers, Evening Prayer, and Compline, which we would have available for our use in our evening services. 3. There is sequential numbering of the pages in LSB. In other words, there is one set of page numbers. Currently, if one were to say, “turn to page 15 for our liturgy,” most non-LCMS visitors, not realizing that there are two sets of page numbers in our hymnal, would turn to hymn 15 and wonder where we are at.

    ein inklusives kinderkonzert Sonntag, CE. Juli ECDJ, DK Uhr Beethovensaal der Liederhalle Stuttgart 454. Konzert der Reihe musik am 13. MUSiK =@ 13 grusswort Musik bewegt die Menschen – sie verbindet und versteht sich ohne Worte. Sie erreicht Personen jeden Alters und jeder Herkunft. Genau dies demonstriert »Musik am 13.« mit den Schülerinnen und Schülern der Helene-Schoettle- Schule, der Schillerschule Bad Cannstatt und des Evangelischen Heidehof-Gymnasiums Stuttgart mit Joseph Haydns Oratorium Die Jahreszeiten . Sehr herzlich begrüße ich alle Schülerinnen und Schüler, ihre Familien und Freunde sowie alle Gäste zum szenischen inklusiven Kinderkonzert in der Liederhalle in Stuttgart. Die Musik und die kreative Zusammenarbeit fördern und unterstützen die Kinder mit und ohne Behinderungen dabei, aufeinander zuzugehen und ihre Unsicherheiten zu überwinden. Neben dem Spaß bei der vorbereitenden Proben und der finalen Aufführung am 2. Juli 2017 geht es also auch um Inklusion und Integration. Die Kinder lernen, trotz unter - schiedlicher Voraussetzungen und Fähigkeiten, zusammen Freude zu haben und ihre Freizeit gleichberechtigt gemein - sam zu verbringen. Der Landesregierung ist es ein wichtiges Anliegen, den gesellschaftlichen Zusammenhalt zu stärken. Daher sind Projekte wie das Kinder - konzert ein wichtiger Beitrag. Sie zeigen, dass wir gemeinsam Verantwortung übernehmen und Dinge voranbringen. Das macht nicht nur glücklich, sondern vor allem auch Sinn! Gerade das Zusammenwirken von jungen Menschen hat Vorzeigecharakter, denn im gemeinsamen Schaffen erleben sie die große Bedeutung von Inklusion und die Bereicherung, die sie durch die Inklusion erfahren. All denen, die zum Gelingen des inklusiven Kinderkonzerts beitragen, danke ich herzlich für ihr großartiges Engagement. Den Schülerinnen und Schülern sowie dem Publikum wünsche ich viel Freude und einen wunderschönen Abend.
