  • Ernst Rudorff
    Ernst Rudorff (b. Berlin, 18. January 1840 – d. Berlin, 31. December 1916) Symphony no. 2 in G minor, op. 40 Born in Berlin, Ernst Friedrich Karl Rudorff was a German conductor, composer, pianist and teacher whose mother knew Mendelssohn and studied with Karl Friedrich Zelter (notable for founding the Berlin Singakademie, amongst other achievements), while his father was a professor of law. Rudorff’s parents’ home was often visited by German Romantic composers of the day, and he numbered Johann Friedrich Reichardt and Ludwig Tieck among his ancestors. From 1850 he studied piano and composition with Woldemar Bargiel (1828–1897), Clara Schumann’s half-brother, who, having studied at the Leipzig Conservatory prior to Rudorff, became a noted teacher and composer emulating though not copying Robert Schumann’s musical style. From 1852 to 1854 Rudorff studied violin with Louis Ries (1830- 1913), a member of the Ries family of musicians, who settled in London in 1853, and he studied piano for a short while with Clara Schumann in 1858, who added him to her list of lifelong musical friends, a list which included Mendelssohn, Joseph Joachim and Brahms. Subsequently, from 1859 to 1860, Rudorff studied history and theology at the universities of Berlin and Leipzig and music at Leipzig Conservatory from 1859 to 1861, where Ignaz Moscheles (for piano) and Julius Rietz (for composition) were his teachers. He then (from 1861 to 1862) studied privately with Carl Reinecke (1824-1910) – who was in his time well connected to Mendelssohn, the Schumanns and

Kathryn is a student of Dr. Beth Chandler Cahill. Program Notes Sonata in G Major Wq.123 H. 550 – Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach (1714-1788) is the fifth child of Johann Sebastian Bach, and one of four who became professional musicians like their father. Before focusing on composition, the young Bach obtained a law degree, though he never pursued the career. His main compositional influences were his father, as well as Georg Philipp Telemann, George Frideric Handel, and Joseph Haydn. Bach wrote approximately 20 sonatas for the flute. Sonata in G Major Wq. 123, H. 550, was composed in 1735. His compositional techniques include some shocking harmonies that push the limits of what was traditionally heard during the Baroque era. This sonata consists of three movements, the first of which, Andante, is elegant and regal. The second movement is a lively, majestic Allegro. The final movement is a traditional Minuetto that allows the performer to show one’s technical ability during the two variations that follow the Minuetto theme.

He studied with his father, Johann Peter Rudolph Reinecke, a music teacher. Carl began to compose at the age of seven, and his first public appearance as a pianist was when he was twelve years old. In 1846, Reinecke was appointed Court Pianist for Christian VIII in Copenhagen. There he remained until 1848, when he resigned and went to Paris. In 1860, Reinecke was appointed director of the Gewandhaus Orchestra concerts in Leipzig, and professor of composition and piano at the Conservatorium. He led the orchestra for more than three decades, until 1895. He conducted premieres such as the full seven-movement version of Brahms’s A German Requiem (1869). Reinecke wrote his Flute Concerto in 1908 at the age of 84 for Maximilian Schwedler, the Principal flautist with the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig. Being rather unfamiliar with the new and more modernistic ways of composing, Reinecke’s writing was still influenced by Mendelssohn and Schumann.
