  • Manuel De Falla' S Siete Canciones Populares Españolas: the Composer's Personal Library, Folksong Models and the Creative Process.'
    Anuario Musical, vol. 55 (2000) MANUEL DE FALLA' S SIETE CANCIONES POPULARES ESPAÑOLAS: THE COMPOSER'S PERSONAL LIBRARY, FOLKSONG MODELS AND THE CREATIVE PROCESS.' Michael CHRISTOFORIDIS Abstract Manuel de Falla's personal library provides a unique resource for the study of the composer's assimilation of ideas, and his lifelong habit of annotating his reading material and scores heightens the library's usefulness to an understanding of his creative process. Falla's reliance on musical borrowings in his compositions means that a study of the printed scores in his library often gives insights into the sources employed and the development of his musical ideas. The limited extent of Falla's field work in the realm of folk music makes this source even more valuable to discussions of folk-inspired works such as the Siete canciones populares españolas. The provenance of the melodies employed by Falla in that work has been the subject of articles by Manuel Garcia Matos and Josep Crivillé i Bargalló. While indebted to their research, this study argues that in the Siete canciones populares españolas all of Falla's melodic lines and some of the accompaniments are based, to varying degrees, on the assimilation of materials taken from specific publications in his possession. Falla's exposure to and incorporation of folk music in his scores is also examined, and the Siete canciones populares españolas are situated within the creative context of Falla's Parisian milieu. Finally, similarities are drawn between Falla's use of folk sources and the process through which early music was incorporated into his neoclassical scores of the 1920s.

  • PROGRAM NOTES Igor Stravinsky Pulcinella, Ballet in One Act with Song
    PROGRAM NOTES by Phillip Huscher Igor Stravinsky Born June 18, 1882, Oranienbaum, Russia. Died April 6, 1971, New York City. Pulcinella, Ballet in One Act with Song Stravinsky began the ballet Pulcinella in the late summer of 1919 and completed it on April 20, 1920. It was premiered on May 15 of that year by the Ballets Russes, at the Paris Opera. The complete score calls for soprano, tenor, and bass soloists, with an orchestra of two flutes, two oboes, two bassoons, two horns, trumpet, trombone, tenor and bass trombone, a quintet of solo strings, and orchestral strings. Performance time is approximately forty minutes. The Chicago Symphony Orchestra first performed the suite from Stravinsky's Pulcinella on subscription concerts at Orchestra Hall on July 17 and 18, 1935, with the composer conducting. Stravinsky also conducted the Orchestra's first performance of the complete ballet score on a special concert at Orchestra Hall on April 17, 1965, with Irene Jordan, Nicholas di Virgilio, and Donald Gramm as soloists. The first subscription concert performances of the complete ballet were given on March 8, 9, and 10, 1973, with Bethany Beardslee, Robert Johnson, and Leslie Gunn as soloists and Lukas Foss conducting. Our most recent subscription concert performances of the complete ballet were given on February 8, 9, and 10, 1979, with Maria Ewing, Ryland Davies, and Claudio Desderi as soloists and Claudio Abbado conducting. The suite was most recently performed on subscription concerts on November 28, 29, 30, and December 2, 1997, with Pinchas Zukerman conducting. The Orchestra first performed music from Pulcinella at the Ravinia Festival on July 12, 1970, with Michael Tilson Thomas conducting, and most recently on August 13, 1987, with Leon Fleisher conducting.

  • HAHN, JACOB ANDREW, D.M.A. Zoltán Kodály's Op. 9, Öt Dal: A
    HAHN, JACOB ANDREW, D.M.A. Zoltán Kodály’s Op. 9, Öt dal: A Historical, Textual, and Musical Analysis with Translations and IPA. (2020) Directed by Dr. James Douglass. 72 pp. Zoltán Kodály is primarily known outside of Hungary for his pedagogical work. However, his compositions should also be recognized for their excellence. His art songs for voice and piano, though mostly composed earlier in his career, represent an important contribution to the art song genre. Kodály was able to synthesize elements of foreign art song composers and his own folk culture to create an effective and important contribution to art song. He, along with Bartók, was one of the first and most significant Hungarian contributors to this genre. These works are rarely performed outside of Hungary due to language issues and availability. Through historical, textual, musical analysis, translations, and IPA, this dissertation will provide a performers’ guide for Kodály’s Op. 9 Öt dal. In addition, reasons for choosing Op. 9 include texts written by the contemporary poets Endre Ady and Béla Balázs, a lack of current scholarship, no complete English translations, and more compositional maturity while using Hungarian elements. This dissertation will allow more non-Hungarian musicians to teach and perform Kodály’s art songs.
