Aber bekannte und berühmte doch eher nicht! So lautet wohl die landläufige Meinung zum Thema Brandenburger Musiker. Trifft man auf ein interessierteres Publikum, so fallen Namen wie Quantz, der „Alte Fritz“ oder C. P. E. Bach, aber kaum ein Name aus der Gegenwart oder der jüngeren Geschichte. Beschäftigt man sich ein wenig mit dieser Materie und das ist heute dank Internet kein Problem, so stößt man recht schnell auf den einen oder anderen bekannten Namen und stellt fest, dass sie / er in Brandenburg geboren, gelebt oder gearbeitet hat oder es noch immer tut. So war die Schaffung der Sondersammlung „Musik aus Brandenburg“ willkommener Anlass, sich mit den Biografien der in dieser Sammlung vertretenen Musiker zu beschäftigen, um sie letztlich auch unseren Lesern zur Verfügung stellen zu können. Dabei stellten sich vor allem zwei Fragen: was macht den Brandenburger Musiker zum Brandenburger Musiker und wer ist ein Musiker? Während sich die zweite Frage recht schnell dahingehend beantworten ließ, dass zu diesem Personenkreis all jene gehören, die sich aktiv mit Musik beschäftigen, egal ob sie als Komponist, Interpret, Musikwissenschaftler oder Musikbuchautor tätig sind, war die Eingrenzung des „Brandenburger Musikers“ weitaus schwieriger.

  • Stopped Notes on the Horn: Some Aesthetic Considerations1
    ROGAN 53 STOPPED NOTES ON THE HORN: SOME AESTHETIC CONSIDERATIONS1 William Rogan newnew musical era was usheredushered in with a patent issued in PrussiaPrussia on AprilApril 12, 1818 for a brass instrumentinstrument valve.valve.2 Initially a means of quickly changing the basic pitch A of a natural brass instrument,instrument, HeinrichHeinrich Stölzel’sStölzel’s and FriedrichFriedrich Blühmel’sBlühmel’s inventioninvention provided for the easier playing of diffi cult stopped notes, but as the valve represented more than a mechanical improvement of the natural horn, it was not universally acclaimed in professional circles.3 Essentially, the valve created a completely new instrument that had considerable effect on the idiomatic use of the horn, on instrumentation, aesthetics, and overall on the increasing degree of chromaticism in orchestral and operatic music in the eighteenth century. Not without cause, even advocates of the new valved horn recommended viewing the innovation as simply a means of augmenting handhorn stopping technique, and one did not have to wait long for the sometimes infl ammatory articles to appear in critical literature, concerning the use of chromatic horns in works originally conceived for the natural horn.4 To the present day, the dispute over “authenticity” of valved horns in place of natural instruments remains unresolved among advocates and opponents of historical performance practice. In one respect the dispute seems unnecessary, as obviously intentional stopped effects on the natural horn are easily produced on the valved instrument as well. What then was the underlying reason for the initial antipathy towards the valved horn? It was not, as one might assume, the supposed unreliability of the mechanism itself, such as leaking or sticking valves, even if existing examples of early attempts do indeed exhibit certain technical imperfections.

Inhalt Grußworte 4 Programm Konferenz 8 Abstracts 14 Informationen zu Panel- und Workshopinhalten 16 Biografien der Referenten, Podiumsgäste und Moderatoren 20 Hygieneregeln 34 Karte 3 Grußwort der Schirmherrin Sehr geehrte Professorinnen und Professoren, verehrte Damen und Herren, liebe Studierende, über Jahrhunderte reichen die Bemühungen zurück, in Dresden eine Ausbildung für Musikerinnen und Musiker zu etablieren. Zu Zeiten von Johann Walter, Heinrich Schütz und Johann Adolf Hasse wird es wohl eher ein „learning by doing“ gewesen sein, geprägt von den Knaben, die zunächst als Sänger am Hofe sangen und später bei den Mitgliedern der Hofkapelle auch Instrumente erlernten. Spätestens um die Zeit Carl Maria von Webers und Richard Wagners werden die Ideen zur Errichtung einer Akademie oder eines Konservatoriums zur Stärkung der nun bereits in Sinfonieorchestergröße aufspielenden Hofkapelle virulent. Weber hatte diese bereits in Prag formuliert. Wagner, Carl Gottlieb Reißiger und Francesco Morlacchi indessen können als die geistigen Väter des 1856 von Friedrich Tröstler gegründeten privaten Konservatoriums gelten, das 1881 das Prädikat eines Königlichen Konservatoriums erhielt. Die direkte Brücke in die Sächsische Staatskapelle hinein ist der Hochschule damit in die Wiege gelegt. Die Gewerbehaus-Kapelle, die heutige Dresdner Philharmonie kam 1871 hinzu und beide Spitzenorchester zählen heute mit ihren Orchesterakademien zu den herausragenden Partnern der Hochschule für Musik Carl Maria von Weber Dresden.

  • The Choir Scene in Flemish Belgium in the First Half of the Nineteenth Century the Vlaemsch-Duitsch Zangverbond
    CHAPTER 8 The Choir Scene in Flemish Belgium in the First Half of the Nineteenth Century The Vlaemsch-Duitsch Zangverbond Jan Dewilde Given the paucity of monographs on the Flemish choir scene in the nineteenth century, no general surveys are available as yet. Therefore this contribution will focus on a brief but significant episode in cultural history, namely the activities of the Vlaemsch-Duitsch Zangverbond (1845–47). Although it existed only for barely three years, this supranational choral society played an important role in the development of the choir scene in Flanders. Furthermore, the purpose and the operation of the Vlaemsch-Duitsch Zangverbond illustrate different forms of nationalist mobilization in Flanders, Belgium and Germany.
