Peter Tschaikowsky (Born at Votkinsk, in the government of Viatka, Russia, May 7, 1840; died at Petrograd, November 6, 1893.) This symphony was performed for the first time at Petrograd on October 28, 1893. The morning after Modest found Peter at the tea-table with the score of the symphony in his hand. He regretted that, inasmuch as he had to send it that day to the publisher, he had not yet given it a title. He wished something more than "No. 6," and did not like "Programme Symphony." "What does Programme Symphony mean when I will give it no programme?" Modest suggested "Tragic," but Peter said that would not do. "I left the room before he had come to a decision. Suddenly I thought, 'Pathetic' I went back to the room,—I remember it as though it were yesterday,—and I said the word to Peter. 'Splendid, Modi, bravo, "Patheti&\f and he wrote in my presence the title that will forever remain." * * * Each hearer has his own thoughts when he is "reminded by the instruments." To some this symphony is as the life of man. The story is to them of man's illusions, desires, loves, struggles, victories, and end. In the first movement they find with the despair of old age and the dread of death the recollection of early years with the transports and illusions of love, the remembrance of youth and all that is contained in that word. The second movement might bear as a motto the words of the Third Kalandar in the "Thousand Nights and a Night": "And we sat down to drink, and some sang songs and others played the lute and psaltery and recorders and others instruments, and the bowl went merrily round. Hereupon such gladness possessed me that I forgot the sorrows of the world one and all, and said: 'This is indeed life. O sad that 'tis fleeting !' " The trio is as the sound of the clock that in Poe's wild tale compelled even the musicians of the orchestra to pause momentarily in their performance, to hearken to the sound ; "and thus the waltzers perforce ceased their evolutions and there was a brief disconcert of the whole gay company; and, while the chimes of the clock yet rang, it was observed that the giddiest grew pale, and the more aged and sedate passed their hands over their brows as if in confused revery or meditation." In this trio Death beats the drum. With Tschaikowsky, here, as in the "Manfred" symphony, the drum is the most tragic of instruments. The persistent drum-beat in this trio is poignant in despair not un- touched with irony. Man says : "Come now, I'll be gay" ; and he 7 STEINWAY & SONS STEINERT JEWETT WOODBURY STEINWAY PIANOLA WEBER PIANOLA STECK PIANOLA WHEELOCK PIANOLA STROUD PIANOLA Most Complete Stock of Records in New England STEINERT HALL, 162 BOYLSTON STREET BOSTON tries to sing and to dance, and to forget. His very gayety is labored, forced, constrained, in an unnatural rhythm. And then the drum is heard, and there is wailing, there is angry protest, there is the conviction that the struggle against Fate is vain. Again there is the deliberate effort to be gay, but the drum once heard beats in the ears forever. The third movement—the march-scherzo—is the excuse, the pre- text, for the final lamentation. The man triumphs, he knows all that there is in earthly fame.

  • An Exploration of the Early Training and Song Juvenilia of Samuel Barber
    THE FORMATIVE YEARS: AN EXPLORATION OF THE EARLY TRAINING AND SONG JUVENILIA OF SAMUEL BARBER Derek T. Chester, B.M., M.M. Dissertation Prepared for the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS May 2013 APPROVED: Jennifer Lane, Major Professor Stephen Dubberly, Committee Member Elvia Puccinelli, Committee Member Jeffrey Snider, Chair of the Division of Vocal Studies James C. Scott, Dean of the College of Music Mark Wardell, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Chester, Derek T. The Formative Years: An Exploration of the Early Training and Song Juvenilia of Samuel Barber. Doctor of Musical Arts (Performance), May 2013, 112 pp., 32 musical examples, bibliography, 56 titles. In the art of song composition, American composer Samuel Barber was the perfect storm. Barber spent years studying under superb instruction and became adept as a pianist, singer, composer, and in literature and languages. The songs that Barber composed during those years of instruction, many of which have been posthumously published, are waypoints on his journey to compositional maturity. These early songs display his natural inclinations, his self-determination, his growth through trial and error, and the slow flowering of a musical vision, meticulously cultivated by the educational opportunities provided to him by his family and his many devoted mentors. Using existing well-known and recently uncovered biographical data, as well as both published and unpublished song juvenilia and mature songs, this dissertation examines the importance of Barber’s earliest musical and academic training in relationship to his development as a song composer. Copyright 2013 by Derek T. Chester ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I sang my first Samuel Barber song at the age of eighteen.
