Taucht hier bereits die Verbindung ei- nes menschlichen und kompositorischen Reifeprozesses auf, der sich offenbar ge- rade auch in Liedkompositionen ent- wickeln konnte, so wird dies in den 15 Liedern des 1922/1923 entstandenen Marienlebens, dem wohl bedeutendsten Liederzyklus des 20. Jahrhunderts, noch deutlicher: Schon die Bemerkung Das war nicht leicht zu machen, die Hinde- mith in seinem Werkverzeichnis notiert, deutet bei einem Komponisten, der schon mal eine Solo-Bratschensonate im Zug komponiert, um sie am Abend urauf- zuführen, daraufhin, daß dieses Werk er- neut eine wichtige Wendemarke in sei- nem Schaffen markiert. Diese Vermutung bestätigt auch das Vorwort der 1948 ver- öffentlichten 2. Fassung dieses Zyklus, die als klingendes Beispiel für seine Unter- weisung im Tonsatz dienen sollte. Dort schreibt er über die 1. Fassung: Der star- ke Eindruck, den schon die erste Auf- führung auf die Zuhörer machte – erwar- tet hatte ich gar nichts -, brachte mir zum ersten Male in meinem Musikerdasein die ethische Notwendigkeiten der Musik und die moralischen Verpflichtungen des Musikers zum Bewußtsein. Auf einen besonderen Prüfstand gera- ten diese „moralischen Verpflichtungen des Musikers“ in den dreißiger Jahren, in denen sich Hindemith intensiv mit der Frage auseinanderzusetzen hat, ob ein Künstler unbeeindruckt von den politi- schen Ereignissen um ihn herum schaffen könne oder ob er eine Verpflichtung habe, die Kunst zu Gunsten des politi- schen Engagements aufzugeben bzw. in dessen Dienst zu stellen. Die Antwort auf diese Frage thematisiert Hindemith einer- seits in seiner Oper Mathis der Maler und Maschinenschriftliche Fassung des Vorworts zur zweiten Ausgabe (1948) des Marienlebens mit Zeichnung Paul entscheidet sie andererseits für sich selbst Hindemiths/Typed version of the foreword to the second version (1948) of Das Marienleben with a drawing by mittels der Emigration.

  • With a Rich History Steeped in Tradition, the Courage to Stand Apart and An
    With a rich history steeped in tradition, the courage to stand apart and an enduring joy of discovery, the Wiener Symphoniker are the beating heart of the metropolis of classical music, Vienna. For 120 years, the orchestra has shaped the special sound of its native city, forging a link between past, present and future like no other. In Andrés Orozco-Estrada - for several years now an adopted Viennese - the orchestra has found a Chief Conductor to lead this skilful ensemble forward from the 20-21 season onward, and at the same time revisit its musical roots. That the Wiener Symphoniker were formed in 1900 of all years is no coincidence. The fresh wind of Viennese Modernism swirled around this new orchestra, which confronted the challenges of the 20th century with confidence and vision. This initially included the assured command of the city's musical past: they were the first orchestra to present all of Beethoven's symphonies in the Austrian capital as one cycle. The humanist and forward-looking legacy of Beethoven and Viennese Romanticism seems tailor-made for the Symphoniker, who are justly leaders in this repertoire to this day. That pioneering spirit, however, is also evident in the fact that within a very short time the Wiener Symphoniker rose to become one of the most important European orchestras for the premiering of new works. They have given the world premieres of many milestones of music history, such as Anton Bruckner's Ninth Symphony, Arnold Schönberg's Gurre-Lieder, Maurice Ravel's Piano Concerto for the Left Hand and Franz Schmidt's The Book of the Seven Seals - concerts that opened a door onto completely new worlds of sound and made these accessible to the greater masses.

  • Wolfgang Sawallisch Wolfgang Sawallisch
    WOLFGANG SAWALLISCH Conductor Laureate Wolfgang Sawallisch became conductor laureate of The Philadelphia Orchestra in September 2003, following the culmination of his celebrated, decade-long tenure as the Orchestra’s sixth music director. Acclaimed as one of the greatest living exponents of the Germanic musical tradition, Mr. Sawallisch enriched and expanded upon the Orchestra’s century-old tradition of excellence, leaving an enduring legacy of artistic achievements with the ensemble. As music director, Mr. Sawallisch encouraged the exploration of new ways to present music to American audiences. In April 1997 he led the Philadelphians in the first live internet concert “cybercast” made by a major American orchestra, attracting listeners from more than 40 countries around the world. He presented season-long focuses on the works of Schumann, Haydn, Beethoven, and Brahms, and an ongoing overview of the works of Richard Strauss (including a concert presentation of the opera Ariadne auf Naxos ). Through a series of commissions, Mr. Sawallisch re-affirmed the Orchestra’s commitment to new music; and his vision for the Orchestra’s 100th Anniversary Season in 1999-2000, made up exclusively of music written since the ensemble’s creation in 1900, resulted in record ticket sales and critical praise. During his tenure, Mr. Sawallisch led The Philadelphia Orchestra each year in concerts outside Philadelphia, helping to build upon the ensemble’s long tradition of touring. He appeared annually with the Orchestra in a series of concerts at Carnegie Hall and conducted the Orchestra in major concert halls throughout the world on eight international tours (three to Europe, four to Asia, and one to Central and South America).

  • Tonalitysince 1950
    Tonality Since 1950 Tonality Since 1950 documents the debate surrounding one of the most basic technical and artistic resources of music in the later 20th century. The obvious flourishing of tonality – a return to key, pitch center, and consonance – in recent decades has undermi- ned received views of its disintegration or collapse ca. 1910, in- tensifying the discussion of music’s acoustical-theoretical bases, and of its broader cultural and metaphysical meanings. While historians of 20th-century music have often marginalized tonal practices, the present volume offers a new emphasis on emergent historical continuities. Musicians as diverse as Hindemith, the Beatles, Reich, and Saariaho have approached tonality from many different angles: as a figure of nostalgic longing, or as a universal law; as a quoted artefact of music’s sedimented stylistic past, or as a timeless harmonic resource. Essays by 15 leading contributors cover a wide repertoire of concert and pop/rock music composed Tonal in Europe and America over the past half-century.

  • Is Bach Best? | Gramophone.Co.Uk
    Is Bach best? Was Bach a genius? Or simply a superb technical craftsman? Simon Heighes tries to pin down Bach's genius with a little help from some friends On one thing most musicians are generally agreed: Bach was probably the greatest of all. Explaining his elusive genius, though, is not so easy. Asked why, in Dylan Thomas's words, 'Bach is best', even seasoned professionals find themselves struggling. 'It's impossible,' says Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau. 'His music is the language of the soul, so we can never fully understand him.' Soprano Nancy Argenta is prepared to have a go, though. 'The key to Bach is the spiritual dimension. He was further along the line of godliness than most of us. For me, Bach is a seer, a wise man, a beacon along the path.' For conductor Helmuth Rilling — who has recorded more music by Bach than most — his genius had a more earthly foundation.
