    Page 1 (1/31/20) Violin Sonata No. 2 in A major JOSEPH BOULOGNE, CHEVALIER DE SAINT-GEORGES (1745-1799) Composed in 1781. Joseph Boulogne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges, one of music history’s most fascinating figures, was born on Christmas Day 1745 on the Caribbean island of Guadeloupe, where his father, a French civil servant, was stationed as comptroller-general; his mother was a black islander. The family moved to Paris when the boy was ten. Joseph was enrolled in the academy of Nicolas Texier de La Boëssière, one of France’s most renowned fencing masters, and there received a good general education as well as rigorous training in swimming, boxing, horse riding and other physical and social skills; he became one of the finest fencers in Europe. Saint-Georges’ musical education was less well documented, though he apparently had shown talent as a violinist even before leaving Guadeloupe and seems to have been a student of the celebrated composer François Gossec for several years. sHe joined Gossec’s orchestra at the Concert des Amateurs in 1769, made his debut there as a soloist three years later (in two of his own violin concertos), and became concertmaster and conductor of the group shortly thereafter. In 1777, Saint-Georges entered the employ of the Duke of Orléans, and four years later took on the additional position of concertmaster of the Concert de la Loge Olympique, for which Claude-François-Marie Rigoley, Comte d’Ogny commissioned Haydn’s “Paris” symphonies. Saint-Georges acted as intermediary in finalizing the arrangements with Haydn, and he presumably directed the premieres of the works.

  • News from the Library of Congress MOUG / MLA 2001
    News From the Library of Congress MOUG / MLA 2001 All of the news from LC this year furnishes empirical proof that the old maxim, “The more things change, the more they stay the same,” is not true. We can testify that, in fact, “The more things change, the more things change.” Like a young tree, the bigger it gets, the bigger it gets. The implementation of the Integrated Library System (ILS) has forced the Library to examine how it does business from the ground up. The result will be cleaner and leaner operation with more to offer everyone. (Regarding that “more to offer everyone,” it should be mentioned that our Web OPAC registers 150,000 searches a day!) The ILS has been in operation now for about one-and-a-half years. Most catalogers and technicians have become comfortable with its operations. Acquisitions and circulation staff are also up and running. Our goal for this calendar year is to return production to pre-ILS levels–and so far it appears that we will have no problem achieving this. We are also looking forward to the Voyager 2000 implementation, due in July 2001, which will provide us with added functionality. This report will be organized along the same lines as past reports. We will take a look at the major happenings in selected LC organizations and operations with special attention to areas of interest to Music Librarians. 1. LIBRARY OF CONGRESS INTEGRATED LIBRARY SYSTEM On August 21, 2000, the Library officially accepted the LC ILS system after extensive testing and forty consecutive days of acceptable response times.

  • WILLIAM GRANT STILL's VIOLIN MUSIC TRANSCRIBED for SAXOPHONE by ANDY AUSTIN PEEKS (Under the Direction of Connie Frigo) ABSTRA
    WILLIAM GRANT STILL’S VIOLIN MUSIC TRANSCRIBED FOR SAXOPHONE by ANDY AUSTIN PEEKS (Under the Direction of Connie Frigo) ABSTRACT William Grant Still (1895-1978) was the first African-American composer to write a concert piece for saxophone and piano. Mr. Still’s Romance for E-flat alto saxophone and piano (commissioned by Sigurd Rascher in 1954) was the last of only four original works that he composed for solo instrument and piano. The earlier works included a piece for oboe and piano, and two works for violin and piano. The violin works were written for Louis Kaufman, who is best known for his violin work in Hollywood between the 1920s and the 1950s. However, finding underappreciated composers of substantial music was also a significant aspect of Kaufman’s mission. Mr. Still’s violin music was championed by Kaufman through concerts in both the United States and around the world. This document serves as a resource for the concert saxophone community. It provides performance edition saxophone transcriptions of the available works for violin and piano. It assists saxophonists seeking to include more of Mr. Still’s compositions in their performance and pedagogical repertoire. In addition, the historical information about the works, the composer, and the performers is a valuable resource for program notes.

  • Discovering the Rediscovery of Antonio Vivaldi
    DDISCOVERINGISCOVERING TTHEHE RREDISCOVERYEDISCOVERY OOFF AANTONIONTONIO VVIVALDIIVALDI MILES DAYTO N FISH Miles Dayton Fish Professor of Music Northwest Arkansas Community College Director NWACC Chamber Singers milesfi [email protected] ith more than two thousand recordings1 and myriad W conductors programing his music worldwide, Antonio Vivaldi (1678-1741) is one of the most performed composers in music history. A violinist, concertmaster, and teacher himself, Vivaldi composed many instrumental works, most notably The Four Seasons, and was a major contributor to the development of the concerto. His many sacred and secular works include the Stabat Mater, Magnifi cat, and Gloria,2 arguably his most famous choral work. It is hard to believe that until the 1950s, Vivaldi and his music were virtually unknown to the concert-going public. This article recounts the true story of the rediscovery of Vivaldi—from the uncovering of hundreds of compositions once thought lost to the quest to bring those compositions to the forefront of classical repertoire. Contained in the following pages are the author’s personal photographs, including images from the Italian National University Library in Turin where the Vivaldi Turin manuscripts are located and images from the library archives of the Accademia Musicale Chigiana in Siena. It is the author’s hope that scholars of choral music will enjoy rediscovering Vivaldi in this unique narrative format that begins with an accidental discovery that was two hundred years in the making.
