Boston Symphony Orchestra Concert Programs, Season 84,1964-1965, Subscription BOSTON SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA EIGHTY-FOURTH SEASON 1964-1965 , TAKE NOTE The precursor of the oboe goes back to antiquity — it was found in Sumeria (2800 bc) and was the Jewish halil, the Greek aulos, and the Roman tibia • After the renaissance, instruments of this type were found in complete families ranging from the soprano to the bass. The higher or smaller instruments were named by the French "haulx-bois" or "hault- bois" which was transcribed by the Italians into oboe which name is now used in English, German and Italian to distinguish the smallest instrument • In a symphony orchestra, it usually gives the pitch to the other instruments • Is it time for you to take note of your insurance needs? • We welcome the opportunity to analyze your present program and offer our professional service to provide you with intelligent, complete protection.

Moreover, the collaboration here is one that is es- pecially appropriate, as both are masters of the Romantic repertoire and style. Brahms' First Concerto is a "big" concerto, originally con- ceived as a symphony, that imposes heavy demands on both soloist and orchestra. Cliburn, Leinsdorf and the Boston Sym- phony meet this challenge in a re- cording that captures all the essen- tial passion and intensity of Brahms' score. This first collaboration between Cliburn, Leinsdorf and the Boston Symphony is also a "first" in two other respects : it is the first record- ing of this work by Cliburn, and the first recording of this impor- tant work in Dynagroove sound.

  • Johann Peter Vogel: Pfitzners Verhältnis Zu Juden Und Judentum
    Mitteilungen der Hans Pfitzner-Gesellschaft 70 (2009) 8-29 [revidierte Fassung 2011] www.pfitzner-gesellschaft.de Johann Peter Vogel PFITZNERS VERHÄLTNIS ZU JUDEN UND JUDENTUM 1. Vorbemerkungen. „Ich habe Dr. Pfitzner zur Zeit der Aufführung der ‚Rose vom Liebes- garten‘ in Wien im Hause Gustav Mahlers kennen gelernt. Es war mir immer bekannt, dass er Deutschnationaler im Sinne Richard Wagners, also mit einer kleinen antisemitischen Truebung war. Ich habe ihn in all diesen Jahren oefters gesprochen. Trotz aller uns trennenden Unter- schiede, die kuenstlerischen inbegriffen, habe ich nie das Gefuehl von Agressivitaet gehabt. Kein Wunder, dass nach dem Abwandern so vieler Musikalischer Kraefte Pfitzner unter den wenigen, die verblieben, der erstklassige war und als solcher die Anerkennung fand, die ihm frueher zu Unrecht nicht immer zum Teil geworden war. Wenn das nazistische System fuer ihn von Vorteil war, so bin ich ueberzeugt, dass er sich nie- mals dafuer gebeugt, niemals eine Konzession gemacht haette, Grausam- keiten aber sicherlich verurteilte“.1 Das schrieb Arnold Schönberg am 10.9.1947 in Los Angeles als Eidesstattliche Erklärung für das Spruch- kammerverfahren gegen Hans Pfitzner, das denn auch mit der Feststel- lung endete, Pfitzner sei „vom Gesetz nicht betroffen“. Die Erklärung Schönbergs wird gern als Gefälligkeitsschreiben gewertet, denn sie passt nicht zu dem Persönlichkeitsbild, das eine moralisierende Generation von Pfitzner als einem ‚aggressiven‘, ja ‚mörderischen Anti- semiten‘ entwirft. Warum aber Schönberg für Pfitzner, der 1926 die von Schönberg vertretene atonale Musik heftig angegriffen hat, ein so dick aufgetragenes Gefälligkeitsschreiben formuliert haben soll, wird nicht er- klärt. Der Stich gegen Pfitzner liegt in der Bemerkung, dass der unter Überarbeitete und erweiterte Fassung eines am 2.

GRAMMOPHONE/POLYDOR, Berlin Approved for registration or issue from December 1916 to early 1921, the individual dating is only approximate. The RPM varies from 78-80. These acoustic recordings also appeared on the Vocalion label and are so listed when this occurred. Orchestras and conductors aren't known. The matrix is followed by three catalogue numbers: 1) 12" single-sided, which begin with 76, or 12" double-sided, which begin with 72; 2) 10" single-sided, which begin with 74, or 10" double-sided which begin with 70 or 80; and 3) the international catalogue number begins with 040 or numbers prefixed with "B". Juynboll states: "Some titles were recorded twice or three times during the same recording session. Each recording of the same title bearing the same matrix number is technically known as a "take". Take 1 is the initial recording, the repeat would be take 2, a second repeat take 3, and so on. A later take could be made at a subsequent session...." Juynboll also states that the L or m at the end of the matrix numbers denotes that the recording engineer was Franz Hampe.
