    The Instrumental Music for Small Ensemble afof Antonio Bertali: The Sources By Niels Martin Jensen There are still many unsolved problems conceming the life and works of Anto­ nio Bertali, the Italian violinist, composer, and maestro di cappella of the Habs­ burg court in Vienna from 1649 until his death in 1669. It is not surprising that the exact dates of his birth and of his death only recently have been discovered; such lack of information holds good for many of his contemporaries too. It is striking, however, how much inaccurate and contradictory information exists in music literature from the late 17th century up to our day about his published and unpublished works. Lost works as wellweH as uncertain and spurious attributions still hamper a clear view of this prolific composer as an important link between the instrumental traditions of Southem and Northem Europe. Through the dissemination of his instrumental music Bertali became one of the most weH-knownwell-known Italian composers to his contemporaries in Northem Europe, but the sources of his works present us with some essential problems as regards the holdings of music manuscripts of the 17th century.

  • ACRONYM Program Notes
    PROGRAM NOTES The Düben Collection consists of approximately 2300 music manuscripts assembled by, and named after, a family of composers who served in succession as Kapellmeisters (literally, chapel masters; the directors of music) to the Royal Swedish Court in Stockholm. The largest contributor to the collection was Gustaf Düben the Elder (1628 - 1690). Others included his father, Andreas (1597 - 1662), and his sons, Gustaf the Younger (1659 - 1726) and Anders the Younger (1673 - 1738). The latter donated the collection to Uppsala University Library where it remains today. The Düben Collection contains both instrumental and vocal music, and the vocal music is primarily sacred. Most of the compositions in the collection are by Germans and Austrians and set to Latin or German texts, although a smattering of works are by composers from France, Italy, and elsewhere. In addition, several Swedish composers, including members of the Düben family, set a number of Swedish texts. Some major works, such as opera excerpts by Lully and chamber cantatas by Buxtehude, are found in Swedish translation. Much of the music within the archive is unique, and the vast majority of it has been neither published in modern editions nor recorded. ACRONYM previously scoured the collection for sonatas that can now be heard on our Bertali and Wunderkammer recordings, and while doing so, our interest was piqued by this unmined treasure trove of 17th-century music. This performance consists of some of the most beautiful and fascinating works found within the Düben Collection, and it is likely the first time any of this repertory has been heard in hundreds of years.

The name was originally the title of a collection of sonatas by the viola da gamba virtuoso Johann Directed by Christian Zincke Schenck, which were published in 1709. Group members Martin Jopp (violin), Alexander Weimann (harpsichord/organ), Michael Dücker (lute) and Christian Zincke are dedicated to the performance of seventeenth-century chamber music. Repertoire from earlier periods form another area of interest for the ensemble. For programmes with Baroque and Renaissance content, the group expands to include the psalterio (Elisabeth Seitz) and the harp (Johanna Seitz). Echo du Danube has performed for the Hessischen Rundfunk (Frankfurt), the Feste Musicali (Cologne) the Kelkheim Early Music Festival, the Brunnethaler Summer Concerts (Austria) the Crakow Festival (Poland), the Essaouira Festival (Morocco) and formed the continuo for the Frankfurt Opera’s production of Monteverdi’s Orfeo. The ensemble has made numerous radio recordings for German public radio (works by Jakob Richmann, August Kühnel and Ernst Christian Hesse). Extensive research precedes the development of Echo du Danube’s programmes.

  • Antonio Bertali, "Lamento Della Regina D'inghilterra": Introduction
    Antonio Bertali, Lamento della Regina d’Inghilterra, ed. Andrew H. Weaver, April 2008 Introduction, p. i ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION On 30 January 1649, King Charles I of England was beheaded by his own government, having been found guilty of high treason and sentenced as a “tyrant, traitor, murderer, and implacable enemy to the Commonwealth of England.” While the long-term results of this execution are well known to students of early modern English history, its immediate impact on all levels of European society can be difficult to fathom. In the age of Absolutism, this supreme blow to the God-given authority of the king sent shockwaves throughout Europe. One can only imagine the fear it must have inspired in other European monarchs, who were forced to acknowledge how very tenuous was their own hold to power. Among the many artistic responses to Charles’s execution was a sympathetic work from the Habsburg court of the Holy Roman Emperor in Vienna, an Italian poem by Emperor Ferdinand III’s younger brother, Archduke Leopold Wilhelm (1614–62), which was set to music by Antonio Bertali (1605–69), maestro di cappella of the imperial court chapel. In both its text and music, this lament of Charles’s French-born Catholic queen, Henrietta Maria, looks back to the ne plus ultra of all seventeenth-century laments, Monteverdi’s Lamento d’Arianna of 1608, although it also bears witness to the textual and musical conventions that were rising to prominence on the Venetian operatic stage. The Composer Born in Verona in 1605, Antonio Bertali spent his youth studying music with Stefano Bernardi, maestro di cappella of the Verona cathedral.1 He seems to have joined the Viennese court chapel already by 1624, but the earliest document of his presence at court is his marriage certificate dated 26 January 1631, which identifies him as an instrumentalist to the emperor.

    ACRONYM to play Baroque battle music on inaugural Pipino Series at YSU by Daniel Hathaway and Kivie Cahn-Lipman Youngstown State University is inaugurating a new cycle of concerts this season: the Donald ​ P. Pipino Performing Arts Series, which continues through April 2019, includes seven events in diverse genres. Commenting on the new offerings in a press release, Phyllis M. Paul, Dean of the Cliffe College of Creative Arts & Communication, said, “The Series brings to Youngstown the types of cultural opportunities usually found only in large metropolitan areas.” The second event on Friday, October 5 at 7:30 pm in Ford Family Recital Hall at the DeYor Center on Youngstown’s Federal Plaza will feature the celebrated Baroque string band ACRONYM in a program commemorating the 1683 Battle of Vienna. That standoff was a turning point in the long conflict between the Ottoman and Holy Roman Empires and inspired a programmatic work by Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber. “Dedicated to giving modern premieres of the wild instrumental music of the seventeenth century,” ACRONYM is itself an acronym for its fanciful moniker, “Altmusik Collective Resurrecting Obscure Nuanced Yesteryear’s Masterpieces.” The ​ ​ ensemble is largely made up of musicians who have passed through the Oberlin Conservatory’s Historical Performance Program.

Doctor of Musical Arts (Trombone Performance), August, 1981, 38 pp., 10 illustra- tions, bibliography, 33 titles. The dissertation consists of four recitals. Three solo recitals featured a variety of selected works for bass trombone and piano by traditional and contemporary composers. The lecture recital, entitled "The Trombone in German and Austrian Ensemble Sonatas of the Late Seventeenth Century," is a study which examines the role of the trombone, both as a solo and ensemble instrument, and the functions of the instrument in ensemble sonatas of the late seventeenth century. The trombone's use in instrumental ensembles was traced from the fifteenth century to the present. The program included selections by German composers Daniel Speer and Matthias Weckmann, and Austrian composers Autonio Bertali, Johann Heinrich Schmelzer and Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber. After the seventeenth century, little evidence is available documenting the continuation of the trombone's extensive use in instrumental chamber ensembles.
