Karola Lipińskiego we Wrocławiu Wydział Instrumentalny mgr Marcin Ostrowski ROLA MINIATUR NA SKRZYPCE I FORTEPIAN W PIERWSZEJ POŁOWIE XX WIEKU I ICH RÓŻNORODNOŚĆ STYLISTYCZNA NA PODSTAWIE WYBRANYCH KOMPOZYCJI praca doktorska Pod kierunkiem dr hab. Wiktora Kuzniecowa Wrocław 2018 PODZIĘKOWANIA Pragnę podziękować osobom, bez których ta praca nie mogłaby powstać. Przede wszystkim nauczycielom: prof. Michaiłowi Kuzniecowowi za zaszczepienie we mnie pasji i miłości do muzyki; dr hab. Wiktorowi Kuzniecowowi za wiedzę i umiejętności oraz Ś.P. prof. Wojciechowi Malińskiemu, który pozwolił mi uwierzyć w siebie i zachęcał do stawiania sobie najambitniejszych celów. Dziękuję Pani Katarzynie Kaczorowskiej, która towarzyszy mi przy fortepianie od najmłodszych lat, dzieląc się pozytywnym usposobieniem i muzycznym doświadczeniem, które zaowocowało przy wspólnych nagraniach. Jestem wdzięczny rodzicom za niezachwianą wiarę w moje możliwości i wszelkie wsparcie, na które zawsze mogę liczyć. Dziękuję też żonie Aleksandrze za motywację i siłę, jakiej dodawała mi walcząc z jeszcze większym wyzwaniem – chorobą nowotworową. STRESZCZENIE Rola miniatur na skrzypce i fortepian w pierwszej połowie XX wieku i ich różnorodność stylistyczna na podstawie wybranych kompozycji autor: mgr Marcin Ostrowski promotor: dr hab.Wiktor Kuzniecow Przedmiotem moich badań były miniatury na skrzypce i fortepian w pierwszej połowie XX wieku, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem jedenastu wybranych utworów: Clair de lune C. Debussy'ego (w opracowaniu A. Roelensa), 4 Stücke op. 7 A. Weberna, Estrellita M. Ponce (w opracowaniu J. Heifetza), Rumuńskie tańce ludowe B. Bartóka (w opr. Z. Szekely), Berceuse op.79 nr 6 i Mazurka op. 81 nr 1 J. Sibeliusa, Berceuse sur le nom de Gabriel Fauré M. Ravela, La Berceuse d'Äitacho Enia K. Szymanowskiego, Kaprys cygański F. Kreislera, Abodah E. Blocha oraz Song-Poem A. Chaczaturiana. Celem pracy doktorskiej było udowodnienie, że miniatura pełniła istotną rolę w wielu przekrojach muzycznego życia w badanym okresie, osiągając również apogeum różnorodności stylistycznej. Praca pisemna składa się trzech rozdziałów, podsumowania i wykazu materiałów źródłowych. Pierwszy rozdział dotyczy systematyki przyjętej do dalszych badań i historii miniatury instrumentalnej. Drugi rozdział przedstawia rolę, jaką przyjęła miniatura skrzypcowa w kontekście społecznym, twórczym i wykonawczym w pierwszej połowie XX wieku. W rozdziale trzecim prezentuję badania dotyczące wybranych twórców i ich dzieł. W podrozdziałach opisuję życiorys i charakterystykę twórczości kompozytorów, a także genezę oraz analizę formalno-wykonawczą poszczególnych utworów. W podsumowaniu przedstawiam wnioski wynikające z badań i własne spostrzeżenia. Do pracy dołączone jest nagranie dzieła artystycznego na nośniku CD. ABSTRACT The role of miniatures for violin and piano in the first half of the twentieth century and their stylistic diversity based on selected compositions author: mgr Marcin Ostrowski supervisor: dr hab.Wiktor Kuzniecow The subject of my research were miniatures for violin and piano in the first half of the twentieth century, with special reference to eleven selected works: Clair de lune by C. Debussy (arr. A. Roelens), 4 Stücke op. 7 by A. Webern, Estrellita by M. Ponce (arr. J. Heifetz), Romanian folk dances by B. Bartók (arr. Z. Szekely), Berceuse op.79 No. 6 and Mazurka op. 81 No. 1 by J. Sibelius, Berceuse sur le nom Gabriel Fauré by M. Ravel, La Berceuse d'Äitacho Enia by K. Szymanowski, Gypsy caprice by F. Kreisler, Abodah by E. Bloch and Song-Poem by A. Khatchaturian. The aim of the PhD dissertation was to prove that the miniature played an important role in many cross-sections of musical life in the analyzed period, also reaching the apogee of stylistic diversity. The written thesis consists of three chapters, a summary and a bibliography. The first chapter deals with the systematics adopted for further research and the history of instrumental miniature. The second chapter presents the role of the violin miniature in a social, creative and executive context in the first half of the 20th century. In the third chapter, I present research on selected artists and their works. In the sub-sections, I describe the biography and characteristics of the composers' work, as well as the genesis and formal and executive analysis of individual works. In the summary, I present the conclusions from the research and my own observations. The work includes a CD recording attached.

WILEY HITCHCOCK Quartet in B-flat major, Op. 64, No. 3 JOSEPH HAYDN Chamber music owes much to Joseph Haydn. Almost all of the chamber works before his contributions were based on the continuo principle: the chamber group was supported by a keyboard instrument which filled in the harmonies between a bass part and the florid upper parts. Now, since the continuo player extemporized, there was much indiscriminate doubling of notes, and the written-down parts of the chamber instruments had no absolute tonal meaning; the composer could never be sure how his music would sound. In nearly eighty string quartets, and many other chamber works, Haydn attempted to solve the problem of creating chamber music intended as independent of the "help­ ing hand" of a continuo.

JOSEPH HAYDN (1732-1809) More than eighty string quartets and countless other chamber works, over one hundred symphonies, fifty-odd concertos and about the same number of keyboard sonatas—these are only part of Joseph Haydn's tremendous musical output! The list is staggering. And even more to be wondered at is the general excellence of all this music. Working independently at the court of the Esterhazy family, a complete pro­ vincial who never left the immediate vicinity of Vienna save for two visits to London late in life, deprived of that most important stimulus to progress in composition— frequent contact with other music and musicians, Haydn nevertheless sustained a freshness of invention, an originality of expression, through fifty years of composing.

  • The Art of Henri Temianka” VIRTUOSO VIOLINIST, CONDUCTOR, AUTHOR and EDUCATOR
    ARSC New York Chapter December 2019 Meeting 7:00 P. M. Thursday, 12/19/2019 →At the CUNY Sonic Arts Center← West 140th Street & Convent Avenue, New York Or enter at 138th Street off Convent Avenue (N.B. not always open) Shepard Hall (the Gothic building) – Recital Hall (Room 95, ground floor) An elevator is located in the center of the building. “The Art of Henri Temianka” VIRTUOSO VIOLINIST, CONDUCTOR, AUTHOR AND EDUCATOR Presented by John Haley As demonstrated by his recordings, Henri (pronounced “Henry”) Temianka (1906-1992) was one of the finest violinists of the 20th Century. Born in Greenock, Scotland of immigrant Polish Jewish parents, he studied violin with Carol Blitz in Rotterdam, Willy Hess in Berlin, Jules Boucherit in Paris, and finally Carl Flesch at the Curtis Institute in Philadelphia. In 1930, Temianka was in the first Curtis graduating class, earning a double degree in violin and conducting, having studied the latter with Artur Rodzinski. As a violinist he was further influenced by Eugène Ysaӱe, Jacques Thibaud and Bronisław Huberman. Flesch referred to him as possessing “both musically and technically, … a model collection of talents.” After a brilliant debut in New York in 1928 (which Olin Downes described as “one of the finest accomplishments in years”), Temianka returned to Europe and rapidly established himself as one of that era’s foremost concert violinists, appearing with major orchestras in Europe and the U.S. under such conductors as Pierre Monteux, Sir John Barbirolli, Sir Adrian Boult, Fritz Reiner, Sir Henry Wood, George Szell, Otto Klemperer, Dimitri Mitropoulos and William Steinberg.

When that first incarnation of the quartet was performed the following month, I was dissatisfied with the overall result. I stowed the composition away and did not return to it until a number of years had passed; in 1987, I substantially revised this piece. I threw out the first movement (now destroyed). I then took the original third NANCY ADLER movement, recomposed certain passages, and determined it should now stand as the new first String Quartet No.

WILEY HITCHCOCK L'Estro Armonico, Op. 3 ANTONIO VIVALDI Antonio Vivaldi, possibly the greatest Italian master of the late Baroque period, lived from 1680 to 1741. A renowned virtuoso on the violin, he is remembered today primarily for his many works for that instrument, and other string combinations, although he was a prolific composer of operas, cantatas, motets, and works in other forms. "L'Estro Armonico" is the title given to a group of conccrti grossi for various combinations of instruments published by Vivaldi as Opus 3. Their pre-eminence in the popular concerto grosso field of the early classical era is indicated by the fact that Johann Sebastian Bach arranged several of them for his own use.
