But such distinctly is not the case. • The family of modest income can own a Steinway today . without delay . without finan- cial strain. • Visit your nearest Steinway dealer today. Select the piano that would best fit into your home. Listen to an artist play on it. Deposit 10% of its cost, and the Instrument of the Immortals will be sent to your home immediately. You may take three years to settle the balance.

The whole programme was devoted to compositions by Elgar, who conducted : Overture, "In the South" ; Funeral March from "Grania and Diarmid" ; the song-cycle "Sea Pictures," for contralto and orchestra, sung by Miss Ada Crossley; "Pomp and Circumstance," March No. 3; Overture, "Cockaigne"; Introduction and Allegro for string orchestra; "Enigma" variations. The march, like the work for string orchestra, was played for the first time. The In- troduction and Allegro was produced for the first time in the United States by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra at Chicago on March 23-24, 1906. Frederick Stock was the conductor. Elgar told Ernest Newman, the celebrated writer, about music, that this work had its origin in Wales, "when he was impressed by the sound of distant singing, in which the cadence of a falling third caught his fancy. From the train of thought thus generated sprang the main theme of the work—the pseudo-Welsh tune. Later on, a song heard in the valley of the Wye reinforced the Welsh impres- sions, and led to the completion of the work." The composition is written for a solo quartet with string orches- tra, all divisi. Elgar's dedication is "to his friend, Professor S. S. Sanford, Yale University, U. S. A." The score was published in 1905. The work begins Moderato, G minor, 4-4, with a sturdy theme given to both sets of strings. An Allegretto follows, the material of which is based on the subject of the Allegro. This is worked with the opening measures. The succeeding Welsh tune is given to the viola. After a pause, the subject of the Allegro is announced by the first violins pp. After development, a second theme comes in, staccato, in the quartet. The orchestra alternates with it, nor are the sturdy opening measures of the work ignored. There is a reminder of the Welsh tune. A fugato follows: the subject is announced by the second violins; the first violins take it up; the preceding thematic material is worked. Then comes the recapitulation section. The Welsh theme, now in G major, is given to all the strings. At the end, there is reference to the first subject of the Allegro.

  • The Most Common Orchestral Excerpts for the Horn: a Discussion of Performance Practice
    The most common orchestral excerpts for the horn: a discussion of performance practice by Shannon L. Armer Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Music in the Faculty of Humanities University of Pretoria Supervisor: Dr. J. deC Hinch Pretoria January 2006 © University of Pretoria ii ABSTRACT This study describes in detail the preparation that must be done by aspiring orchestral horn players in order to be sufficiently ready for an orchestral audition. The general physical and mental preparation, through to the very specific elements that require attention when practicing and learning a list of orchestral excerpts that will be performed for an audition committee, is investigated. This study provides both the necessary tools and the insight borne of a number of years of orchestral experience that will enable a player to take a given excerpt and learn not only the notes and rhythms, but also discern many other subtleties inherent in the music, resulting in a full understanding and mastery thereof. Ten musical examples are included in order to illustrate the type of additional information that a player must gain so as to develop an in-depth knowledge of an excerpt. Three lists are presented within the text of this study: 1) a list of excerpts that are most commonly found at auditions, 2) a list of those excerpts that are often included and 3) other excerpts that have been requested but are not as commonly found. Also included is advice regarding the audition procedure itself, a discussion of the music required for auditions, and a guide to the orchestral excerpt books in which these passages can be found.

Il musicista cominciò a scrivere la «Domestica» nel 1902, poco dopo l'andata in scena della sua seconda opera Feuersnot (Fuochi di San Giovanni) e la terminò nel 1903, dirigendola per la prima volta al Carnegie Hall di New York il 21 marzo 1904. Sin d'allora questo poema sinfonico suscitò discussioni e riserve da parte della critica per il suo acceso e scoperto carattere autobiografico.

[email protected] Your Account Number: {MM:Account Number} {MM:Postcode} {MM:Address5} {MM:Address4} {MM:Address3} {MM:Address2} {MM:Address1} {MM:Name} 1 Welcome! Dear Customer, Young Norwegian soprano Lise Davidsen has gradually been garnering attention in recent years, perhaps making the leap to a wider awareness following her award of Gramophone’s ‘Young Artist of the Year’ in 2018 and her sublime performance of Strauss’s ‘Morgen’ at the ceremony. Ariadne was her major role last year; 2019 sees her take on the part of Elisabeth in Tannhauser - Zurich and Munich have already had the pleasure and she will be taking it to Bayreuth in July, under the baton of Valery Gergiev in a brand new production. Pleasingly for those of us who won’t manage to catch her live, her debut album on Decca has just been released, featuring two arias from Tannhauser plus orchestral lieder (and one aria) by Richard Strauss. We have been hugely impressed, especially considering her mere 32 years of age, making it a clear choice for Disc of the Month. Please see our website for our full review. Other new releases to highlight for June include a second lieder recital from Decca, performed by none other than Renee Fleming; Hyperion issue the latest in their series of ‘Romantic Violin Concertos’, this volume featuring works by Lassen, Scharwenka and Langgaard; the Vaughan Williams Society offer us his works for viola and piano via the Albion label; the final instalment in the Halle’s superb Ring Cycle (Siegfried) is released on the Halle’s own label; and stunning vocal ensemble Vox Luminis give us a treat in the shape of works by the Bach Family.

  • MARCH 2017 Director’S Introduction
    JANUARY – MARCH 2017 Director’s Introduction ©Frances Marshall Photography Receptive to life and death, and aware of the spiritual depths of both, Schubert probed the heart of the human condition in his unsurpassed, and almost certainly unsurpassable, output of 600-plus songs. Wigmore Hall’s Schubert: The Complete Songs series offers audiences the chance to experience the full range of this extraordinary creative achievement as it continues through 2017. Grammy-nominated pianist, bandleader and composer Vijay Iyer starts his Jazz Residency at Wigmore Hall. The American musician, born in 1971 in New York, has been described by Los Angeles Weekly as ‘a boundless and deeply important young star’ and by the Guardian as being ‘at a dizzying pinnacle of contemporary jazz multitasking’, verdicts reinforced by a string of awards and five-star reviews. Patricia Kopatchinskaja, our Artist in Residence, launches her Wigmore Hall series with the first of three concerts crafted to show the versatility, curiosity and wide musical passions of a true pioneer among today’s performers. The Moldovan-Austrian violinist is equally at home with period performance styles as she is when bringing contemporary compositions to life or casting fresh interpretative light on the most familiar of chamber works. Spread over the course of four seasons, Angela Hewitt: The Bach Odyssey gathers momentum with a concert devoted to Bach’s six French Suites. Angela Hewitt’s affinity for Bach flows naturally from Peter Dazeley her strong connection with the composer’s dance rhythms and from Paul Lewis’s pianism, eloquent and fully alive, is the result of a harmonious her exquisite feeling for lyrical phrasing, contrapuntal clarity and marriage between deep thinking about music and unrestrained physical sensitive articulation.
