Preface and Acknowledgments
PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This book is the extended form of six public lectures delivered in the Ernest Bloch Lecture Series from September 18 to October 23, 1989, in the Department of Music at the University of California at Berkeley. To my regret, the presentation of this expanded version, which for the most part I had finished by the end of 1992, is somewhat overdue, but not without good reason. For an American publication I found that I could not help but produce, if I may say so, a magnum opus, a summary of three decades of Bartók studies, thereby offering grateful, if belated, thanks to the University of California and to my colleagues and students at Berkeley. It was proba- bly the happiest time of my life: I had the honor not only of presenting the music of Béla Bartók but also, at a turning point in Bartók studies, of outlining the tasks awaiting future research on his oeuvre before the most resonant, expert audience I have ever met outside of my country, Hungary—the homeland of Bartók. Coming half a century after the death of the composer, this is the first book dedicated to the study of Bartók's compositional process to be based on the com- plete existing primary source material. Therefore, a great many things need to be accomplished simultaneously: a description of the sources (chapter 3) as well as the first reliable list of manuscripts (in the appendix); an extensive discussion of Bar- tók's sketches and drafts (chapters 4 and 7); an introduction to auxiliary research fields as for instance in paper studies (chapter 6). -

LE MONDE Mort De Christophe Desjardins, Un Alto Pour La Musique De Tous Les Temps
LE MONDE Mort de Christophe Desjardins, un alto pour la musique de tous les temps L’instrumentiste français, soliste à l’Ensemble intercontemporain durant deux décennies et interprète privilégié des plus grands compositeurs, est mort jeudi à 57 ans. Par Marie-Aude Roux Publié le 15 février 2020 Il avait su faire de son instrument une arme de création massive : l’altiste Christophe Desjardins, bien connu des mélomanes amis de la musique contemporaine, est mort à Paris jeudi 13 février des suites d’un cancer. Il avait 57 ans. L’un de ses enregistrements maîtres restera le somptueux récital réalisé pour Aeon, Alto/Multiples, en 2010, dix-sept pièces en 2 CD, dont le premier rassemble des grands solos (d’Hindemith à Elliott Carter) qui ont jalonné le XXe siècle, le second regroupant des œuvres en lien avec un répertoire plus ancien ou réclamant le procédé du re-recording afin de démultiplier son instrument – ainsi, le trio Ockeghem-Maderna, le quatuor de Wolfgang Rihm ou le septuor Messagesquisse de Boulez, dont il a créé en 2000 la version pour sept altos. Christophe Desjardins naît à Caen (Calvados) le 24 avril 1962. Il commence la musique très jeune et étudie d’abord le piano, avant de découvrir l’alto à 10 ans, dont le côté mystérieux le séduit. Il entre au Conservatoire national supérieur de musique de Paris en 1982 dans les classes de Serge Collot pour l’alto, de Geneviève Joy (femme d’Henri Dutilleux) pour la musique de chambre. Muni d’un Premier Prix à l’unanimité l’année suivante (1983), il se perfectionne à la Hochschule der Künste (actuelle Universität der Künste) de Berlin auprès de Bruno Giuranna. -

The Correspondence Between Arnold Schoenberg and Universal Edition
The Correspondence between Arnold Schoenberg and Universal Edition Katharina Bleier Wissenschaftszentrum Arnold Schönberg Universität für Musik und darstellende Kunst Wien Therese Muxeneder Arnold Schönberg Center, Wien ‘[…] publishers and authors cannot remain friends in the long run.’1 The first curator of Schoenberg’s archival legacy was the composer himself: throughout his life he remained an archivally gifted and visionary collector, the guardian of what is now considered an unparalleled heritage in the musical history of the last century. Its spectrum, ranging from compositions and philosophical-political, musical-aesthetic and literary-political writings, to paintings and drawings and finally to the invention of objects, illuminates a personality who as both man and artist resisted to the end the tendency to conform, a personality worth discovering not only for the indelible signature he left upon the music of his century. The Arnold Schönberg Center, established in 1998 in Vienna, is a unique repository of Schoenberg’s archival legacy2 and a cultural institution that is open to the public. The Schoenberg archive is one of the most renowned and comprehensive collections of works by a twentieth-century composer and promotes a broad spectrum of research. In addition to the archive, exhibition and concert facilities, the Center also houses the Arnold Schönberg Research Center (Wissenschaftszentrum Arnold Schönberg, Institut für Musikalische Stilforschung of the Universität für Musik und darstellende Kunst Wien). 19 ARCHIVAL NOTES Sources and Research from the Institute of Music, No. 1 (2016) © Fondazione Giorgio Cini, Venezia ISBN 9788896445136 | ISSN 2499‒832X KATHARINA BLEIER – THERESE MUXENEDER Activities at the Research Center are focused on the Viennese School, particularly in its role as a group that had a lasting influence on twentieth- century music throughout the world. -

C’est justement Andy Warhol qui est au centre du premier concert de ce cycle. L’artiste expérimental Scanner, alias Robin Rimbaud, travaille sur la voix de Warhol issue de ses interviews. Il fait émerger des espaces vides, des hésitations et des respirations nécessaires à la construction – parfois à partir d’un simple « euh » – d’un univers sonore. Des images projetées accompagnent cette performance, donnant à voir l’expression warholienne de l’ennui et sa fascination du détail. Quant à Dean & Britta, issus du groupe de rock indépendant Luna, ils inventent une bande-son pour les screen tests auxquels Warhol soumettait ses visiteurs, connus ou anonymes : le résultat de deux minutes quarante était ensuite projeté au ralenti ain d’en obtenir quatre. Le pianiste Cecil Taylor a révolutionné le jazz en libérant l’improvisation des conventions en vigueur : il est, avec Ornette Coleman, l’un des créateurs du free-jazz. -

Depuis plus de dix ans, ses grandes œuvres n’ont pas été jouées à Paris. Développé au cours des automnes 2014 et 2015, ce “portrait” de Luigi Nono permettra d’écouter des œuvres d’orchestre et de musique de chambre (avec l’ajout de live-electronics pour celles de la dernière période), rares au concert, et dont certaines en création française. L’attention portée à la voix, en soliste ou en chœur, et la manifes - tation de son engagement politique dans ses œuvres constituent les deux axes sur lesquels se déploie ce cycle. Dans les années 1960 et 1970, Luigi Nono, membre du Parti communiste italien, organise en effet des concerts dans les usines et rencontre, au cours de nombreux voyages, les militants des mouvements révolutionnaires apparaissant en Algérie, à Cuba, au Pérou, au Chili, au Vietnam et ailleurs. Ces rencontres fournissent la matière aux deux opéras de cette période, Intolleranza 1960 et Al gran carico d’amore – ce dernier, créé avec le metteur en scène Youri Liou - bimov. -
