Ludwig van Beethoven (Born at Bonn, December 16 (?), 1770; died at Vienna, March 26, 1827.) Anton Schindler wrote in his Life of Beethoven (Minister, 1840) : "First in the fall of 1802 was his [Beethoven's] mental condition so much bettered that he could take hold afresh of his long-formulated plan and make some progress: to pay homage with a great instru- mental work to the hero of the time, Napoleon. Yet not until 1803 did he set himself seriously to this gigantic work, which we now know under the title of 'Sinphonia Eroica' : on account of many in- terruptions it was not finished until the following year. The first idea of this symphony is said to have come from General Berna- dotte, who was then French Ambassador at Vienna, and highly treasured Beethoven. I heard this from many friends of Beethoven. Count Moritz Lichnowsky, who was often with Beethoven in the company of Bernadotte, . told me the same story." Schindler also wrote, with reference to the year 1823 : "The correspondence of the King of Sweden led Beethoven's memory back to the time when the King, then General Bernadotte, Ambassador of the French Re- public, was at Vienna, and Beethoven had a lively recollection of the fact that Bernadotte indeed first awakened in him the idea of the 'Sinphonia Eroica.' These statements are direct. Unfortunately, Schindler, in the third edition of his book, mentioned Beethoven as a visitor at the house of Bernadotte in 1798, repeated the statement that Bernadotte inspired the idea of the symphony, and added : "Not long afterward the idea blossomed into a deed" ; he also laid stress on the fact that Beethoven was a stanch republican, and cited, in support of his admiration of Napoleon, passages from Beethoven's own copy of Schleiermacher's translation of Plato. Thayer admits that the thought of Napoleon may have influenced the form and the contents of the symphony ; that the composer may have based a system of politics on Plato ; "but," he adds, "Bernadotte had been long absent from Vienna before the Consular form of gov- ernment was adopted at Paris, and before Schleiermacher's Plato was published in Berlin." The symphony was composed in 1803-04. The story is that the title-page of the manuscript bore the word "Buonaparte" and at the bottom of the page "Luigi van Beethoven"; "and not a word more," said Ries, who saw the manuscript. "I was the first," also said Ries, "who brought him the news that Bonaparte had had himself declared Emperor, whereat he broke out angrily : 'Then he's " nothing but an ordinary man ! Now he'll trample on all the rights of men to serve his own ambition ; he will put himself higher than all others and turn out a tyrant !' Furthermore, there is the story that, when the death of Napoleon at St. Helena was announced, Beethoven exclaimed, "Did I not foresee the catastrophe when I wrote the funeral march in the 'Eroica' ?" M. Vincent d'Indy in his remarkable Life of Beethoven argues against Schindler's theory that Beethoven wished to celebrate the French Revolution en Moc. "C'etait Vliomme de Brumaire" that Beethoven honored by his dedication (pp. 79-82). The original score of the symphony was bought in 1827 by Joseph Dessauer for three florins, ten kreuzers, at auction in Vienna. On the title-page stands "Sinfonia grande." Two words that should follow immediately were erased. One of these words is plainly "Bonaparte," and under his own name the composer wrote in large characters with a lead-pencil: "Written on Bonaparte." Thus it appears there can be nothing in the statements that have come down from Czerny, Dr. Bartolini, and others : the first allegro describes a sea-fight; the funeral march is in memory of Nelson or General Abercrombie, etc. There can be no doubt that Napoleon, the young conqueror, the Consul, the enemy of kings, worked a spell over Beethoven, as over Berlioz, Hazlitt, Victor Hugo; for, according to Henley's paradox, although, as despot, Napoleon had "no love for new ideas and no tolerance for intellectual independ- ence," yet he was "the great First Cause of Romanticism." The first performance of the symphony was at a private concert at Prince Lobkowitz's in December, 1804. The composer conducted. In the second half of the first allegro he brought the orchestra to grief, so that a fresh start was made. The first performance in public was at a concert given by Clement at the Theater an der Wien, April 7, 1805.

Molto allegro PROGRAM NOTES BY DR. RICHARD E. RODDA FRANZ SCHUBERT Overture and Ballet Music No. 2 from the Incidental Music to Rosamunde, D. 644 (1820 and 1823) Franz Schubert was born in Vienna on January 31, 1797, and died there on November 19, 1828. He composed the music for Rosamunde during the years 1820 and 1823. The ballet was premiered in Vienna on December 20, 1823 at the Theater-an-der-Wein, with the composer conducting. The Incidental Music to Rosamunde was first performed by the Pittsburgh Symphony on November 9, 1906, conducted by Emil Paur at Carnegie Music Hall. Most recently, Lorin Maazel conducted the Overture to Rosamunde on March 14, 1986. The score calls for pairs of woodwinds, four horns, two trumpets, three trombones, timpani and strings. Performance tine: approximately 17 minutes Schubert wrote more for the stage than is commonly realized. His output contains over a dozen works for the theater, including eight complete operas and operettas. Every one flopped. Still, he doggedly followed each new theatrical opportunity that came his way.

  • For the Degree of MASTER of MUSIC by Richard Highfill, B. Mus. Memphis, Texas August, 1952
    /V$1 THE HISTORY OF THE TROMBONE FROM THE RENAISSANCE TO THE EARLY ROdANTIC PERIOD THESIS Presented to the Graduate Counci. of the North Texas State College in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF MUSIC by 211818 Richard Highfill, B. Mus. Memphis, Texas August, 1952 211818 PREFACE The purpose of this thesis is to show the development of the trombone, in form and music, and its use in the orches- tra through the times of Beethoven and Schubert. Since very little material has been presented concerning the history of the trombone, it is hoped that the illustrations and explana- tions contained herein will be a contribution toward a repre- sentation of music from different composers and periods. The music covered gives a picture of the use of the trombone from the Renaissance through to the beginning of the Romantic Period. The results of this study are presented in three main sections: (1) The history of the trombone in the Renais- sance; (2) The history of the trombone in the Baroque; (3) The history of the trombone in the Classical Period, and up to the time of Schubert. In the first section, the trombone is described in its original form and illustrations show its use in the music of the Renaissance. The use of the trombone in the Baroque era, and its place in the various forms of sacred and secular music are presented in the second section. The third section is concerned mainly with the further development of the trombone in orchestral literature, iii culminating with the introduction and establishment of the instrument in the symphony.

  • Franz Schubert Written and Narrated by Jeremy Siepmann with Tom George As Schubert
    LIFE AND WORKS Franz Schubert Written and narrated by Jeremy Siepmann with Tom George as Schubert 8.558135–38 Life and Works: Franz Schubert Preface If music is ‘about’ anything, it’s about life. No other medium can so quickly or more comprehensively lay bare the very soul of those who make or compose it. Biographies confined to the limitations of text are therefore at a serious disadvantage when it comes to the lives of composers. Only by combining verbal language with the music itself can one hope to achieve a fully rounded portrait. In the present series, the words of composers and their contemporaries are brought to life by distinguished actors in a narrative liberally spiced with musical illustrations. Unlike the standard audio portrait, the music is not used here simply for purposes of illustration within a basically narrative context. Thus we often hear very substantial chunks, and in several cases whole movements, which may be felt by some to ‘interrupt’ the story; but as its title implies the series is not just about the lives of the great composers, it is also an exploration of their works. Dismemberment of these for ‘theatrical’ effect would thus be almost sacrilegious! Likewise, the booklet is more than a complementary appendage and may be read independently, with no loss of interest or connection.

    WHITEHALL CHOIR Brandenburg Sinfonia SCHUBERT Stabat Mater MOZART Mass in C minor Conductor PAUL SPICER (Sopranos) Emily Garland, Anna Sideris (Tenor) Ørjan Bruskeland Hinna (Baritone) Nicholas Mogg Thursday, 2 April 2015, 7.30pm St John’s Smith Square, London SW1P 3HA Programme £2 Ascendit – Music for Passiontide to Ascension. The perfect Easter gift The pieces for Whitehall Choir’s most recent CD, Ascendit, its third, recorded in 2014, were chosen to trace the period of the church’s year between Passiontide and Ascension. In selecting them, we wanted to present a wide variety of styles and periods, including a substantial amount of recent music. A key element was the winning entry of Whitehall Choir's 70th anniversary Young Composer Competition, which stipulated that the piece had to set words which related to the programme. Samuel Parsons’ work movingly sets the words from the Latin Stabat Mater alongside those of Elizabeth Jennings. We also sing pieces by James MacMillan, one of the greatest choral composers of the present day, and his teacher Kenneth Leighton. Balancing all this modern music are classics from earlier periods including Purcell’s near-perfect Remember not, Lord, our offences, Lotti’s extraordinary Crucifixus and Gibbons’s precocious doctoral exercise for Oxford University, O Clap your Hands, one of the truly virtuoso compositions of the Tudor period. There really should be something for everyone on this CD. In accordance with the requirements of Westminster City Council persons shall not be permitted to sit or stand in any gangway. The taking of photographs and use of recording equipment is strictly forbidden without formal consent from St John’s.

August 2021 15.04 – 17.00 Uhr Franz Schubert Die Musikserie von Christine Lemke-Matwey Der Einsame: Schuberts Persönlichkeit (8/21) Heute wird‘s heikel, denn heute soll es um Schuberts Persönlichkeit gehen. Was ist er für ein Mensch? Geschildert wird Schubert als unsicher, kapriziös, launisch, „grillenhaft“, phlegma- tisch, melancholisch, hektisch, schüchtern, unbeholfen, fröhlich, trotzig, arrogant, auch mal zynisch, sarkastisch, schroff, störrisch oder liebenswürdig – und aus all dem dürfen Sie sich jetzt etwas aussuchen, dürfen Sie Ihren Schubert „konfigurieren“, Ihr Schubert-Bild. Unter Alkoholeinfluss soll er übrigens auch gerne randaliert haben. „Der Einsame“, so lautet heute der Titel – und so heißt auch dieses Lied: 1 DG Franz Schubert 4‘23 00173 „Der Einsame“ D 800 472115-2 Fritz Wunderlich, Tenor Tr. 124 Hubert Giessen, Klavier (1965) Fritz Wunderlich, am Klavier begleitet von Hubert Giessen, mit dem „Einsamen“ von Franz Schubert, ein Lied von 1825 nach einem Gedicht von Karl Lappe. Wunderlich galt lange als der ideale Schubert-Interpret schlechthin, sozusagen als naiv und wissend zugleich. Das trifft sich hier mit einer idyllisch-biedermeierlichen Szene, die erst am Schluss, in der letzten Stro- phe des Liedes, enthüllt, worum es geht. Die Grillen, das Feuer, die „stille Ländlichkeit“ – das ist alles nur Fassade. Fassade für eines der großen Schubert-Themen: die Einsamkeit. Das einerseits bittere, andererseits immer wieder notwendige Alleinsein. Heute wird‘s heikel, wie gesagt. Weil es heikel ist, über einen Künstler zu sprechen, der schon so lange tot ist, über 190 Jahre nämlich. Selbst kann man ihn nicht mehr befragen, und die Quellenlage bei Schubert – das kommt erschwerend hinzu – ist dürftig.
