PROGRAM Le tombeau de Couperin Maurice Ravel Prelude Forlane Menuet Rigaudon Ostensibly this music represents neoclassic expression in its purest distillate. And it was, indeed, conceived as a pianistic idealization of the clavecin aesthetic exemplified by Francois Couperin le Crand. But that was in the fateful summer of 1914, and even Ravel's sleepy St. Jean-de-Luz was traumatized by the news of Archduke Francis Ferdinand's assassination at Sarajevo. France mobilized overnight, and by August was at war. By then the sketches for Le tombeau de Couperin were in a desk drawer. When he returned to them three wretched years later the composer was a very different man, broken in health and shattered emotionally by the loss of his mother, who had died barely a week after his medical discharge. Thus it was that the six movements became as many 'tomb- stones' (each one inscribed separately) for friends and regimental comrads who had been killed on the Western Front. As a work for solo piano—Ravel's last, incidentally—Le tombeau was not a notable success. Strictly speaking it could not have been because it marked a stylistic retrogression after the harmonic leaps forward in the Valse nobles et sentimentales and Gas-pard de la nuit. But fortu- nately that was not the end of the matter.

  • 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.

  • Ronald Roseman: a Biographical Description and Study of His Teaching Methodology
    LAMPIDIS, ANNA, D.M.A. Ronald Roseman: A Biographical Description and Study of his Teaching Methodology. (2008) Directed by Dr. Mary Ashley Barret. 103 pp. Ronald Roseman was an internationally acclaimed oboe soloist, chamber musician, teacher, recording artist, and composer whose career spanned over 40 years. A renowned oboist, he performed in some of America’s most influential institutions and ensembles including the New York Woodwind Quintet, the New York Philharmonic, and the New York Bach Aria Group. His contributions to 20th Century oboe pedagogy through his own unique teaching methodology enabled him to contribute to the success of both his own personal students and many others in the field of oboe and woodwind performance. His body of compositions that include oboe as well as other instruments and voice serve to encapsulate his career as a noteworthy 20th Century composer. Roseman’s musicianship and unique teaching style continues to be admired and respected worldwide by oboists and musicians. The purpose of this study is to present a biographical overview and pedagogical techniques of oboist Ronald Roseman. This study will be divided into sections about his early life, teaching career, performance career and his pedagogical influence upon his students. Exercises and techniques developed by Roseman for the enhancement of oboe pedagogy will also be included. Interviews have been conducted with his wife and three former well-known students in order to better serve the focus of this study. The author also contributed pedagogical techniques compiled during a two-year period of study with Roseman. Appendices include a discography of recorded materials, the New York Woodwind Quintet works list, Roseman’s published article on Baroque Ornamentation, a list of his compositions with premiere dates and performers, and interview questions.
