Magnus Lindberg Al Largo • Cello Concerto No
MAGNUS LINDBERG AL LARGO • CELLO CONCERTO NO. 2 • ERA ANSSI KARTTUNEN FINNISH RADIO SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA HANNU LINTU MAGNUS LINDBERG (1958) 1 Al largo (2009–10) 24:53 Cello Concerto No. 2 (2013) 20:58 2 I 9:50 3 II 6:09 4 III 4:59 5 Era (2012) 20:19 ANSSI KARTTUNEN, cello (2–4) FINNISH RADIO SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA HANNU LINTU, conductor 2 MAGNUS LINDBERG 3 “Though my creative personality and early works were formed from the music of Zimmermann and Xenakis, and a certain anarchy related to rock music of that period, I eventually realised that everything goes back to the foundations of Schoenberg and Stravinsky – how could music ever have taken another road? I see my music now as a synthesis of these elements, combined with what I learned from Grisey and the spectralists, and I detect from Kraft to my latest pieces the same underlying tastes and sense of drama.” – Magnus Lindberg The shift in musical thinking that Magnus Lindberg thus described in December 2012, a few weeks before the premiere of Era, was utter and profound. Lindberg’s composer profile has evolved from his early edgy modernism, “carved in stone” to use his own words, to the softer and more sonorous idiom that he has embraced recently, suggesting a spiritual kinship with late Romanticism and the great masters of the early 20th century. On the other hand, in the same comment Lindberg also mentioned features that have remained constant in his music, including his penchant for drama going back to the early defiantly modernistKraft (1985).

Tapiola Sinfonietta
MAGNUS LINDBERG VIOLIN CONCERTO PEKKA KUUSISTO, VIOLIN & DIRECTOR JUBILEES SOUVENIR MAGNUS LINDBERG, CONDUCTOR TAPIOLA SINFONIETTA 1 Magnus Lindberg 2 nstrumental qualities have always inspired Magnus Lindberg (b. 1958). However abstract his musical ideas may Ibe and however tightly constructed their subsurface structures, his music is always instrumentally idiomatic and powerful. Often his ideas develop in an instrumental direction of their own accord; sometimes they emerge from the special properties of a particular instrument, fusing musical and instrumental innovation into a single creative act. This approach is of course heightened in concertos, which constitute an important genre in Lindberg’s output. He has written two concertos for piano (1990–94; 2012) and one each for cello (1997–99), clarinet (2001–02) and violin (2006), and other works with prominent solo parts. The Violin Concerto was written to a commission from the Lincoln Center in New York together with the Barbican Centre in London, the Casa de Música–Porto and the Swedish Chamber Orchestra and was premiered at the Mostly Mozart festival in New York in August 2006. Although the commission was specifically aimed at the 250th anniversary celebration of Mozart’s birth, Lindberg did not write a tribute with Mozart elements in it. However, the situation of the premiere had an influence on the work in the way that Lindberg used a smaller orchestra than usual. There are two oboes, two bassoons and two horns plus strings – a standard Mozart orchestra, in fact. The very fact that the ensemble is so small prompted clearer and more translucent structures than in many of Lindberg’s other orchestral works.

Commencement 2010
In celebration of the Class of 2010 and Curtis’s seventy-seventh commencement and conferring of degrees, Overtones asked two new graduates and the parent of a third to reflect on the Curtis experience. Also included are some of the thoughts shared at the ceremony by alumnus Alan Gilbert, music director of the New York Philharmonic, who received an honorary doctorate. COMMENCEM 8 OVERTONES FALL 2010 ‘We’re never really done with Curtis’ MUSIC FOR A MOTHER BY LAURA MEYERS The e-mail said, “Please report to 1726 Locust Street at 10:05 a.m. on Monday.” With that admissions e-mail in March 2006, my son, Chris Rogerson, began his Curtis adventure. A week later, he received the call from a faculty member in the Composition Department that he had a place at Curtis. All of his teachers told him, “Curtis is an offer you can’t refuse.” One hot, sweaty afternoon that August, I helped move Chris into the apartment he PHOTOS BY DAVID SWANSON would share with his roommate for the next four years. Philadelphia seemed big and scary.

RICE UNIVERSITY An Oboe and Oboe d'Amore Concerto from the Cape of Africa: A Biographical and Analytical Perspective by Erik Behr A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE Doctor of Musical Arts ApPROVED, THESIS COMMITIEE: Pierre Jalbe rofessor, Composition and Music Theory Peter Loewen, Assistant Professor, Musicology ( Jeffrey Fleisher, Assi tant Professor, Anthropology HOUSTON, TEXAS MAY 2011 ABSTRACf An Oboe and Oboe d'Amore Concerto from the Cape of Africa: A Biographical and Analytical Perspective by Erik Behr Due to the lack of quality contemporary concertos for the oboe and, especially, the oboe d'amore, this dissertation presents two works from South African composers that provide excellent additions to the concerto repertoire. Allan Stephenson wrote Concerto for Oboe and Strings in 1978 and Peter Louis Van Dijk wrote Elegy Dance-Elegy in 1984. The outstanding quality and idiomatic nature of these works assuages the practical concerns today's oboists have when undertaking a contemporary concerto. Along with their high artistic merit, these concerti are both audience-friendly and financially feasible to present on an international stage. In addition to briefly examining the post-apartheid musical climate that exists in South Africa today, the dissertation thoroughly analyzes the works and includes biographical background of the composers. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Grateful thanks and admiration to the two composers of these concerti, Peter Louis Van Dijk and Allan Stephenson, not just for their compositions, but also for the ample discussion time provided by each, facilitating greater understanding of these works. The knowledgeable guidance and constructive criticism of my advisor, Pierre Jalbert, was pivotal in the completion of the dissertation.

THE NINETEENTH CENTURY OBOE CONCERTINO: AN OVERVIEW OF ITS STRUCTURE WITH TWO PERFORMANCE GUIDES Lauren Baker Murray B.M.E., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2002 APPROVED: Charles Veazey, Major Professor Lester Brothers, Minor Professor James Gillespie, Committee Member John Scott, Chair of the DMA Committee Graham Phipps, Chair of Graduate Studies in Music James C. Scott, Dean of the College of Music C. Neal Tate, Dean of the Robert B. Toulouse School of Graduate Studies Murray, Lauren Baker, The Nineteenth Century Oboe Concertino: An Overview of its Structure with Two Performance Guides. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), August 2002, 46 pp., 3 tables, 8 musical examples, bibliography, 39 titles. Music written for oboe and orchestra in the nineteenth century falls into three categories: Classical Concerto, Opera Fantasy, and Concertino. The classical, or standard, three movement, sonata-ritornello format was only sparingly used. Instead, composers chose more the experimental forms of the Opera Fantasy and Concertino. The Opera Fantasy was used as a way for oboe players to play popular opera arias of the time, while showcasing their virtuosity and expression. It is in the Concertino where composers expanded the oboe repertoire to its highest form in the nineteenth century, experimenting with structure, and using the oboe to the height of its expressive powers. In addition to discussion on the Concertino in general, performance guides have been provided for two concertinos, Concertino for Oboe and Winds, by Carl Maria von Weber and Concertino for Oboe and Orchestra, Op.

Since 1939, nearly all disciplines have been represented over the years, from orchestra Instruments to chamber music, piano and voice. The only exception was composition, a discipline essential to performers but often ill regarded by the public. Now however, in Geneva, the two worlds now cohabit. By offering a Composition Prize, for which the award winning work will be compulsory for performers the following year, the Geneva International Music Competition hopes to contribute to the emergence of a true musical modernity, whereby the creative act of the composer will be regarded with the same standards of respect and admiration as the re-creative act of the performer. The Geneva Competition’s Composition Prize follows the tradition started with the Prix Reine Marie José, which was awarded from 1958 to 2008 to more than 20 works from diverse disciplines, ranging from quartets to concertos, symphonies to pieces for solo and electronic instruments. With the support of the Fondation Reine Marie José, the Geneva public now has the possibility of watching a performance of the , of awarding the Audience Prize to the piece of its choice and of re-listening to the award-winning work the following year, during the competition performances.
