  • ARSC Journal
    A Discography of the Choral Symphony by J. F. Weber In previous issues of this Journal (XV:2-3; XVI:l-2), an effort was made to compile parts of a composer discography in depth rather than breadth. This one started in a similar vein with the realization that SO CDs of the Beethoven Ninth Symphony had been released (the total is now over 701). This should have been no surprise, for writers have stated that the playing time of the CD was designed to accommodate this work. After eighteen months' effort, a reasonably complete discography of the work has emerged. The wonder is that it took so long to collect a body of information (especially the full names of the vocalists) that had already been published in various places at various times. The Japanese discographers had made a good start, and some of their data would have been difficult to find otherwise, but quite a few corrections and additions have been made and some recording dates have been obtained that seem to have remained 1.Dlpublished so far. The first point to notice is that six versions of the Ninth didn't appear on the expected single CD. Bl:lhm (118) and Solti (96) exceeded the 75 minutes generally assumed (until recently) to be the maximum CD playing time, but Walter (37), Kegel (126), Mehta (127), and Thomas (130) were not so burdened and have been reissued on single CDs since the first CD release. On the other hand, the rather short Leibowitz (76), Toscanini (11), and Busch (25) versions have recently been issued with fillers.

  • Julia Hamari Geb
    Julia Hamari geb. am 21. November 1942 in Budapest Erste Begegnung mit Karl Richter 1966 Eigentlich ist für mich ein Wunder geschehen, und so versuche ich jetzt, Richter im Geist anzu- schauen und zu ihm zu sprechen. Es war für mich ein phantastisches Erlebnis. In Budapest habe ich 1965 den großen Franz-Liszt- Wettbewerb gewonnen, dabei war ich die jüngste Teilnehmerin. Nach diesem Wettbewerb wurde eine Schallplatte gemacht, die wahrscheinlich herumgeschickt wurde, und so ist diese Schallplatte auch in Wien angekommen. Es war gerade Festspielzeit. Und wenn ich mich gut erinnere, hatte Christa Ludwig abgesagt, und man hat mich gefragt. Als kleine, 22jährige, klein eben, noch Schü- lerin, und von der Hochschule nur weg durch diesen Wettbewerb. Unglaublich aufgeputzt kam ich damals aus Ungarn an. Wir waren arm, es war eigentlich eine dunkle Zeit, aber nicht für mich. Für mich schien die Sonne durch die Musik und dadurch, dass ich dachte, man liebt mich und hilft mir. Im Musikverein in Wien wurde ich dann Richter vorgestellt. Er kam in den Raum und ich stand da, absolut unbekannt, wirklich ein kleines Mädchen, nichts anderes. Und er stand vor mir und guckte mich so an mit seinen irre großen, richtigen - ich sage immer, also positiv, wirklich mit Liebe gemeint - Fischaugen. Ich versuchte, diese Fischaugen anzustarren, und ich wurde gelähmt. Minu- tenlang gelähmt. Ich guckte diese zwei Augen an und ich dachte, ich kann keinen Ton singen. Und dann sagte er in seinem goldigen sächsischen Dialekt - ich versuche noch heute, es für meine Schüler nachzumachen -: „Na, kommen Sie, singen wir ein bisschen.“ Und dann hat er mich in ein großes Zimmer geführt und hat sofort die Erbarme- dich-Arie aus der Matthäus-Passion angefan- gen.

  • The Munich Bach Choir
    The Munich Bach Choir “… modern Bach …” / or / “… which wondrous transformation that dignified Munich Bach Choir is currently undergoing …” (Rondo 2008) The Munich Bach Choir, founded in 1954 by Karl Richter, soon gained international renown, particularly for performing the works of Johann Sebastian Bach – both live onstage during major international concert tours (be it in Paris, Moscow, Tokyo or New York) or as documented by numerous recordings. After Richter’s death in 1981 – Leonard Bernstein conducted the memorial concert in his honour – Hanns-Martin Schneidt took over the baton between 1984 and 2001. He began to expand the choir’s repertoire and continued the by now traditional conert tours. The following years saw the choir collaborating with several guest conductors, predominantly Baroque specialists such as Peter Schreier, Bruno Weil and Ralf Otto. A new era began in 2005, when Hansjörg Albrecht was appointed as new Musical Director – “a godsend for the Munich Bach Choir”, as Süddeutsche Zeitung phrased it. Under his leadership the ensemble developed a new artistic profile and gained a clear and transparent choral sound that many critics since have highlighted. Agile, animated performances of Bach’s works, inspired by historically informed practices, remain a key focus of the choir’s schedule. Unusual program concepts and a steadily expanding repertoire have become additional trademarks in recent years, marked by collaborations with the ballet companies of John Neumeier or Marguerite Donlon and with acclaimed soloists such as Marlis Petersen, Simone Kermes, Klaus Florian Vogt, or Michael Volle. The Munich Bach Choir is regularly working with its traditional artistic partners, the Munich Bach Orchestra and Bach Collegium München, but has also teamed up with other notable European orchestras.

  • Paul Meissen
    Paul Meissen 19. Oktober 1933 Hamburg First Contact with Karl Richter If I remember rightly, I met Karl Richter for the first time in Hamburg. My studies had led me from Detmold to the State Music Chapel in Karlsruhe, Baden. After 2 1/2 years in Karlsruhe I joined the Philharmonic State Orchestra in Hamburg. I believe it was in 1956 in Hamburg that we performed the Brandenburg Concerts from Johann Sebastian Bach in two concerts. During this time I was also called upon to take part in just this performance with just this Chamber Orchestra; and that was when I met Karl Richter for the first time. This arrangement with Hamburg was, as far as Richter was concerned, supposed to develop further, but it never took place more than this one time. He was certainly disappointed that most of the orchestra members also played in other Chamber Orchestras and he never felt that they afforded him their central point of interest. And I believe I was the only one from this formation that he always called from Hamburg to Munich. Richters Music-making with the Choir The vitality and amplitude of sound of the Chamber Orchestra appealed to me from the very beginning. At a second meeting in Ansbach with the choir, I was fascinated by their liveliness and there was something else too that I had never experienced before, was the way that Richter, as conductor had to slow down the tempi of the choir. Sometimes he had to put the brakes on very hard so that the choir would not whiz off without him.

  • Decca Discography
    DECCA DISCOGRAPHY >>V VIENNA, Austria, Germany, Hungary, etc. The Vienna Philharmonic was the jewel in Decca’s crown, particularly from 1956 when the engineers adopted the Sofiensaal as their favoured studio. The contract with the orchestra was secured partly by cultivating various chamber ensembles drawn from its membership. Vienna was favoured for symphonic cycles, particularly in the mid-1960s, and for German opera and operetta, including Strausses of all varieties and Solti’s “Ring” (1958-65), as well as Mackerras’s Janá ček (1976-82). Karajan recorded intermittently for Decca with the VPO from 1959-78. But apart from the New Year concerts, resumed in 2008, recording with the VPO ceased in 1998. Outside the capital there were various sessions in Salzburg from 1984-99. Germany was largely left to Decca’s partner Telefunken, though it was so overshadowed by Deutsche Grammophon and EMI Electrola that few of its products were marketed in the UK, with even those soon relegated to a cheap label. It later signed Harnoncourt and eventually became part of the competition, joining Warner Classics in 1990. Decca did venture to Bayreuth in 1951, ’53 and ’55 but wrecking tactics by Walter Legge blocked the release of several recordings for half a century. The Stuttgart Chamber Orchestra’s sessions moved from Geneva to its home town in 1963 and continued there until 1985. The exiled Philharmonia Hungarica recorded in West Germany from 1969-75. There were a few engagements with the Bavarian Radio in Munich from 1977- 82, but the first substantial contract with a German symphony orchestra did not come until 1982.

  • Music and the Transhuman Ear: Ultrasonics, Material Bodies, and the Limits of Sensation
    Music and the Transhuman Ear: Ultrasonics, Material Bodies, and the Limits of Sensation “We favor morphological freedom – the right to modify and enhance one’s body, cognition and emotions.” (Transhumanist declaration, 2012)1 “I am apt to think, if we knew what it was to be an angel for one hour, we should return to this world, though it were to sit on the brightest throne in it, with vastly more loathing and reluctance than we would now descend into a loathsome dungeon or sepulchre.” (George Berkeley, 1732)2 PART I The materialist turn When Voyager probes 1 and 2 left the earth’s orbit in 1977, the committee tasked with assembling cultural artifacts followed scientist Lewis Thomas’ advice to include recordings of J. S. Bach among the many musical samples. This, it seems, was the best way to open a conversation with an unknown non-human interlocutor, wherein exchanges may be spaced hundreds of years apart. Many styles and genres were committed to the golden discs, but Thomas worried that by broadcasting Bach, the human race might be guilty of bragging to aliens: “we would be bragging, of course,” he admitted in 1972, “but it is surely excusable to put the best possible face on at the beginning of such an acquaintance.”3 His statement makes telling assumptions. To take one example, the three-voice C-major fugue Glenn Gould recorded (WTC, Book II) matches humans’ ability at auditory streaming, which, as David Huron has shown, tends to max out at around three streams, after which “confusions [over contrapuntal lines] become commonplace.”4 It would seem that part of the effect of Bach’s 1 Various, “Transhumanist Declaration,” The Transhumanist Reader, ed.
