Though even he was not LEEVI MADETOJA completely immune to the influence of SYMPHONY NO. 2 his great colleague, he did find a voice for KULLERVO ELEGY himself where the elegiac nature of the landscape and folk songs of his native province of Ostrobothnia merged with a French elegance. Madetoja’s three symphonies did not follow the trail blazed by Sibelius, and another mark of his independence as a composer is that his principal works include two operas, Pohjalaisia (The Ostrobothnians, 1924) and Juha (1935), a genre that Sibelius never embraced. Madetoja emerged as a composer while still a student at the Helsinki Music Institute, when Robert Kajanus conducted his first orchestral work, elegy (1909) for strings, in January 1910. The work was favourably received and was given four further performances in Helsinki that spring. It is a melodically charming and harmonically nuanced miniature that betrays the influence of Tchaikovsky in its achingly tender tones. Later, Madetoja incorporated Elegia into his four-movement Sinfoninen sarja (Symphonic Suite, 1910), but even so it is better known as a separate number.

    Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre Sasha Mäkilä Conducting Madetoja Discoveries About the Art and Profession of Conducting A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Music) Supervisor: Prof. Mart Humal Tallinn 2018 ABSTRACT Conducting Madetoja. Discoveries About the Art and Profession of Conducting For the material of my doctoral project, I have chosen the three symphonies of the Finnish composer Leevi Madetoja (1887–1947), all of which I have performed in my doctoral concerts during years 2012–2017. In my doctoral thesis, I concentrate on his first symphony, Op. 29, but to fully understand the context it would be beneficial to familiarize oneself with my doctoral concerts on the accompanying DVDs, as well as with the available commercial and archival recordings of Madetoja’s three symphonies. The aim of this thesis is to understand the effect of scholarly activity (in this case working with manuscripts and recordings) on the artistic and practical aspects of a conductor’s work; this is not a study on the music of Madetoja per se, but I am using these hitherto unknown symphonies as a case study for my research inquiries. My main research inquiry could be formulated as: What kind of added value the study of composer’s manuscripts and other contemporary sources, the analysis of the existing recordings of the work by other performers, and the experience gained during repeated performances of the work, bring to performing (conducting) the work, as opposed to working straightforwardly using only the readily available published edition(s)? My methods are the analysis of musical scores, manuscripts and recordings, critical reflection on my own artistic practices, and two semi-structured interviews with conductor colleagues.

The Role of a Paris Conservatoire Singing Professor as Architect of an Opera Singer’s Career, as Seen through Letters of Edmond Duvernoy and Aïno Ackté Helena Tyrväinen (Helsinki) «Моя милая Айно». Роль профессора пения Парижской консерватории в создании карьеры оперной певицы (по материалам переписки Эдмона Дювернуа и Айно Акте) Хелена Тюрвяйнен (Хельсинки) Аннотация. Собрание рукописей оперной певицы Айны Акте-Яландер (Aino /Aïno Ackté-Jalander; 1876– 1944) в Национальной библиотеке Финляндии (Хель- синки) содержит одну из самых обширных и интерна- ционально ориентированных эпистолярных коллекций в архивах финских музыкантов- профессионалов. Кол- лекция не только проливает свет на солидную между- народную репутацию талантливой представитель- ницы Великого княжества Финляндского в поздний период истории Российской империи, но и свидетель- ствует о динамичном процессе интернационализации финской музыкальной жизни. В настоящей статье рассматриваются этапы про- фессионального становления певицы в связи с дина- мичным, постоянно менявшимся полем воздействия существовавших одновременно культурных столиц. Основу публикации составляют 117 писем, почтовых открыток, записок, которые преподаватель по классу пения Эдмон Дювернуа (1844–1927) писал Айно Акте в течение тридцати лет. Письма Дювернуа дают пред- ставление о карьерной стратегии оперной певицы прежде всего в Париже; раскрывают вопросы взаи- модействия Парижской оперы с другими оперными театрами того времени, в частности Метрополитен- 226 опера Нью-Йорка. Письма же самой Акте к Дювернуа неизвестны. Представленная переписка свидетельствует о ключе- вой роли преподавателя вокала в Париже как учителя пения, репетитора, опекуна и посредника между уча- щимся и оперным учреждением на протяжении всей профессиональной жизни певца. Учитель договари- вался с оперными режиссерами об ангажементах, ко- торые давали бывшему ученику роли, подходившие ему по типу.

  • The Brass Band Tradition in Finland
    KARJALAINEN 83 THE BRASS BAND TRADITION IN FINLAND Kauko Karjalainen Introduction The oldest continuously functioning Finnish amateur bands are now 125 years old. All were originally brass bands. To be more precise, all have their roots in the brass septet, a specifi c and typical ensemble in Finland since the 1870s. One can say that the period encompassing the end of nineteenth century and the fi rst decade of twentieth was the golden age of Finnish brass bands. In order to understand the development of the relatively young band tradition in Fin- land it is necessary to examine Finland’s history, fi rst as a dependency of her neighboring countries and later as an independent nation. Important phases can be clearly identifi ed, primarily by following the models established for military bands. Parts of Finland belonged to the kingdom of Sweden as early the thirteenth century. Historical documents reveal that Finland and especially the town of Turku (Åbo in Swedish) experienced their initial contacts with Renaissance music when Gustaf Wasa was King of Sweden (1523-1560). He maintained a royal corps of trumpeters, who accompanied him when he visited Finland. Gustaf Wasa began to establish a national army, and the fi rst military trumpeters are documented in the 1540s. It is known that there were some trumpeters in the Finnish cavalry at least by the 1550s. In addition, the King mentioned in a letter in autumn 1555 that there were all kinds of large and small wind instruments in Finland.1 Gustaf Wasa’s favorite son, John, was named Duke of Finland in 1556.

In its overall ZIMMERMANN: DIE sound, the Vocal Symphony represents SOLDATEN – VOCAL post-war modernism at its most typical, SYMPHONY except that it makes versatile use of the human voice.
