  • BACH and 'CANTABILE' HEAVEN on a New 'Goldberg'
    HMU 907425.26 Essay by Richard Egarr BACH AND ‘CANTABILE’ HEAVEN On A New ‘Goldberg’ Thoughts on well-worn themes in the form of variations ‘…this point is too tenuous and contrived to be credible. It’s just arbitrary analysis, an esoteric treasure hunt to deliver whatever results the author wants to find there, to help him appear smarter and more thorough than…other people who know the music really well…’; ‘Sometimes a scale is just a scale…’ – Bradley Lehman, 12/1/05 1 HMU 907425.26 Essay by Richard Egarr In a chapter entitled ‘Freedom of Response to Music’ from his book ‘Music for all of us’, Leopold Stokowski writes this: A few individuals realised [Bach’s] greatness during his lifetime – now millions all over the world respond deeply and powerfully to the inner spirit of this music. There is no question of right or wrong here – it is simply a question of individual response… It is interesting and instructive to hear the opinions of educated and experienced musicians about various kinds of music, but we must always be free to feel about music in our own way – with sincerity and spontaneity. [1]The internet is a wonderful and extraordinary world. Google ‘goldberg variations’ if you will. At the time of writing there were 580000 results (nearly 3 times as many as for Beethoven’s Missa Solemnis, and over twice as many as for his 9th symphony). Anyone requiring historical, analytical, cosmological, apocryphal, or just about any topical information and context about this work, can satisfy their every desire in cyberspace.

  • Review Essay "Robert Schumann Recordings on Perion Pianos in the Bicentennial Year"
    Review Essay Robert Schumann Recordings on Period Pianos in the Bicentennial Year SEZI SESKIR RNOLD DOLMETSCH, ONE OF THE pioneers of the early music movement, was mainly interested in the performance of music up Auntil and including Bach’s time, while performance of later repertoire from then until today was entrusted to the so-called “unbroken tradition.” But during the past three decades, performance practice studies has broadened its focus to include the music of the nineteenth century. Writing in 19th-Century Music in 1977, Robert Winter called for “a few dozen Arnold Dolmetsches applying their imagination and zeal to nineteenth-century problems.”1 By 1984, Winter could report that the number of period instrument recordings of nineteenth-century repertoire had risen from 30 to 125 (including six with various piano works of Robert Schumann).2 It is worth revisiting his report in order to gain a clear picture of the evolution of the early music movement and its achievements. Winter mentions the fact that a great number of recordings made then were for either solo piano or other instruments accompanied by the piano; operas and orchestral music on period instruments were under- represented. This situation is significantly different today. At present one can find multiple performances on period instruments of almost any given major nineteenth-century orchestral work. Today, even a prominent orchestra such as the Berlin Philharmonic, whose reputation is hardly built on its expertise in nineteenth-century performance practice, will likely, while playing Schubert under Nikolaus Harnoncourt or Beethoven under Simon Rattle, drop its constant heavy vibrato, adapting to shorter phrases.

  • Second Thoughts and Short Reviews: Autumn 2017-3
    SECOND THOUGHTS AND SHORT REVIEWS AUTUMN 2017/3 By Brian Wilson and Dan Morgan Reviews are by Brian Wilson except where signed [DM]. Autumn 2017/1 is here and Autumn 2017/2 here. As before, I must remind readers that preparing such a large review – especially large this time – carries the risk of incorrect catalogue numbers or purchase links, though I have tried to make the latter clearer than before. Please check before ordering. Some time ago I mentioned that trusty old Winamp, though it works with downloads in Windows 10, has not been updated for quite some time and that I had noticed occasional glitches. Recently I have been trying another free programme, MusicBee (https://getmusicbee.com/) and have found it to work well after a few initial problems. It does everything that Winamp does and adds the ability to display the artwork, if it’s included in the metadata – which isn’t always the case. An alternative would be MediaGo (http://mediago.sony.com/enu/download), actually designed to work with the high-res digital Sony Walkman, but a useful programme in itself and operating very much like MusicBee.

  • J.S. Bach's the Art of Fugue
    Uri Golomb Johann Sebastian Bach’s The Art of Fugue In the introduction to his book Musical Meaning and Emotion, philosopher Stephen Davies wrote: “I do not believe that all music is expressive. Neither do I believe that expressiveness is always the most important feature of music that is expressive” (p. x). To illustrate this, he presented Bach’s Art of Fugue as the archetypal example. Here, he claims, is a work in which the listener’s attention should be drawn to “the way the material is handled”; the music’s “expressive and dynamic features” – or lack thereof – are of marginal importance (p. 354). This view is not atypical. The Art of Fugue’s reputation as a cerebral, intellectual work is so pervasive that Rinaldo Alessandrini, in the notes to his recording, was moved to ask: “is it possible to consider The Art of Fugue as music?” Until recently, The Art of Fugue was considered Bach’s very last work, sketched and written in last years of his life. It thus came to be viewed as Bach’s “Last Will and Testament”. This resonated with the more general tendency to consider any artist’s late works as transcendental, “unworldly” reflections of their creator’s spirit. Much was also made of the fact that the work was published with no indication of instrumentation: this was seen as further evidence for Bach’s disengagement from material considerations, his indifference to sonority and performance. Some even described The Art of Fugue as Augenmusik – “eye-music”, which should be contemplated and analysed, not realised in sound.
