27 This is where the picture begins to blur. There’s no question that Dvořák was seriously interested in music of Native Americans and African Americans. We know that he often invited Harry T. Burleigh, a gifted young African American singer, to perform spiri- tuals for him. But during his first year in the New World, Dvořák made a number of comments that virtually guaranteed the acclamation of his new symphony as a gen- uine musical evocation of America and started lots of high-handed talk about the use of spirituals and Indian songs in a symphony. When, just before the first performance in December 1893, Dvořák added his title, From the New World, he continued the controversy. It’s difficult to determine the extent of the American influence on Dvořák, but it’s fairly easy to lay to rest a couple of myths. The confusion centers mainly on Dvořák’s use of the pentatonic scale and August 12, 1893, was designated “Bohemian Day” at the World’s Columbian one especially attractive Exposition in Chicago, and nearly 8,000 people packed into Festival Hall to hear tune. The pentatonic Antonín Dvořák lead the Exposition Orchestra (the Chicago Orchestra expanded to scale (a five-note scale 114 players) in his Eighth Symphony (previously numbered his Fourth), selections from the Slavonic Dances, and the overture My Country. without half steps, best visualized as the black notes on the keyboard) colors many of Dvořák’s one many listeners know as “Goin’ Home,” the themes here and was thought to duplicate the haunting english-horn melody of the second sound of Native American melodies, but it is movement, and it is still regularly thought to be also indigenous to folk music worldwide and a spiritual. It may, in fact, have been influenced popped up frequently in Dvořák’s music before by spirituals—we know that Dvořák ultimately he ever crossed the Atlantic.

Riccardo Muti—The Verdi Collection Receives Académie du Disque Lyrique Prize

Riccardo Muti—The Verdi Collection, released by Warner Classics/Erato, was recently honored by the distinguished Académie du Disque Lyrique with the 2017 Prize for Best Verdi Recording. The box set includes recordings of eleven complete operas, the Requiem, and Four Sacred Pieces drawn from the EMI catalogs and covering more than twenty years of cooperation between Muti and the historic British label. Also included with the box set is a companion DVD documentary, in which Muti leads the viewer through rehearsals, various works, and concerts, offering a captivating portrait of Verdi’s music. Founded in 1958, the Académie du Disque Lyrique is a French associa- tion of nearly fifty notable musicologists, journalists, and sound-recording specialists, who each year present the Golden Orpheus Awards to honor the finest lyric recordings, from art song and opera to baroque and contemporary. Bearing the names of artists whose reputations are synonymous with precise lyrical qualities—such as the Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau Prize for Best Interpretation of Lieder or the Arturo Toscanini Prize for Best Recording of a Foreign Composer—the awards recognize all forms of lyrical recording activity and perpetuate the memory of great artists and composers. Riccardo Muti—The Verdi Collection will be available for purchase in the United States and at the Symphony Store on May 18, 2018.
