The Boston Symphony Orchestra and "The Revolution of Expression," 1911-13 "The Revolution of Expression" celebrates artistic achievements around the world between the years 1911 and 1913. To mark this celebration, the Boston Symphony Orchestra Archives has mounted an historical display in the Cohen Wing lobby. Using photographs, letters, programs, and other historical documents preserved in the Archives, the exhibit explores the BSO between the years 1911 and 1913 and the orchestra's performances of important works composed during those years. In the photograph above, Pierre Monteux, music director of the BSO from 1919 to 1924, is shown with the score for Igor Stravinsky's Le Sacre du printemps (The Rite of Spring). Monteux conducted the first performance of the ballet production by Diaghilev's Ballet Russe at the Theatre des Champs-Elysees in Paris on May 29, 1913. right asset manager could well be your most important asset.

Oesterlein (1841–1898), Sammler und Initiator der Sammlung DIE EISENACHER RICHARD-WAGNER-SAMMLUNG In der Reuter-Villa am Fuße der Wartburg schlummern manch vergessene Schätze: Das Abbild einer römischen Villa beherbergt die zweitgrößte Richard-Wagner-Sammlung der Welt. Den Grundstein hierfür legte der glühende Wagner-Verehrer Nicolaus J. Oesterlein (1841–1898) mit einer akribisch angelegten Sammlung von ca. 25.000 Objekten – darunter etwa 200 Handschriften und Originalbriefe Wagners, 700 Theaterzettel, 1000 Graphiken und Fotos, 15.000 Zeitungsausschnitte, handgeschriebene Partituren. Das Herzstück der Sammlung ist eine über 5.500 Bücher umfassende Bibliothek, die neben sämtlichen Wer- ken des Komponisten den fast lückenlosen Bestand der Wagner-Sekundärliteratur des 19. Jahrhunderts enthält. Das Archivmaterial stellt nicht nur einen umfassenden Zugang zu Wagners kompositori- schem und literarischem Schaffen dar, sondern ebenso zu musikästhetischen, philoso- phischen, kulturgeschichtlichen und soziopolitischen Kontroversen des späten 19. Jahr- hunderts. Oesterleins Sammlung kann somit als ein Spiegelbild der Wagner-Rezeption gedeutet werden. Die Sonderausstellung »Tristan und Mathilde. Inspiration – Werk – Rezeption« rückt einige der exquisiten Exemplare aus der Sammlung erstmals wieder in die Öffentlichkeit, die auf diese Weise mit diesem unschätzbaren Kulturgut konfrontiert werden soll. Wie die Sammlung nach Eisenach kam In den 1870er Jahren begann Nicolaus J. Oesterlein mit einem enormen finanziellen Auf- wand und einer fast manischen Akribie alles zu sammeln, was mit dem Komponisten in Verbindung stand. 1887 eröffnete Oesterlein ein Privatmuseum in Wien – in den 1890er Jahren brachte er seinen vierbändigen Katalog heraus. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt umfasste seine Sammlung – nach eigenen Angaben – ca.

  • ARSC Journal

    A Discography of the Choral Symphony by J. F. Weber In previous issues of this Journal (XV:2-3; XVI:l-2), an effort was made to compile parts of a composer discography in depth rather than breadth. This one started in a similar vein with the realization that SO CDs of the Beethoven Ninth Symphony had been released (the total is now over 701). This should have been no surprise, for writers have stated that the playing time of the CD was designed to accommodate this work. After eighteen months' effort, a reasonably complete discography of the work has emerged. The wonder is that it took so long to collect a body of information (especially the full names of the vocalists) that had already been published in various places at various times. The Japanese discographers had made a good start, and some of their data would have been difficult to find otherwise, but quite a few corrections and additions have been made and some recording dates have been obtained that seem to have remained 1.Dlpublished so far. The first point to notice is that six versions of the Ninth didn't appear on the expected single CD. Bl:lhm (118) and Solti (96) exceeded the 75 minutes generally assumed (until recently) to be the maximum CD playing time, but Walter (37), Kegel (126), Mehta (127), and Thomas (130) were not so burdened and have been reissued on single CDs since the first CD release. On the other hand, the rather short Leibowitz (76), Toscanini (11), and Busch (25) versions have recently been issued with fillers.

  • Richard Strauss's Ariadne Auf Naxos

    Richard Strauss's Ariadne Auf Naxos

    Richard Strauss’s Ariadne auf Naxos - A survey of the major recordings by Ralph Moore Ariadne auf Naxos is less frequently encountered on stage than Der Rosenkavalier or Salome, but it is something of favourite among those who fancy themselves connoisseurs, insofar as its plot revolves around a conceit typical of Hofmannsthal’s libretti, whereby two worlds clash: the merits of populist entertainment, personified by characters from the burlesque Commedia dell’arte tradition enacting Viennese operetta, are uneasily juxtaposed with the claims of high art to elevate and refine the observer as embodied in the opera seria to be performed by another company of singers, its plot derived from classical myth. The tale of Ariadne’s desertion by Theseus is performed in the second half of the evening and is in effect an opera within an opera. The fun starts when the major-domo conveys the instructions from “the richest man in Vienna” that in order to save time and avoid delaying the fireworks, both entertainments must be performed simultaneously. Both genres are parodied and a further contrast is made between Zerbinetta’s pragmatic attitude towards love and life and Ariadne’s morbid, death-oriented idealism – “Todgeweihtes Herz!”, Tristan und Isolde-style. Strauss’ scoring is interesting and innovative; the orchestra numbers only forty or so players: strings and brass are reduced to chamber-music scale and the orchestration heavily weighted towards woodwind and percussion, with the result that it is far less grand and Romantic in scale than is usual in Strauss and a peculiarly spare ad spiky mood frequently prevails.
  • A Culture of Recording: Christopher Raeburn and the Decca Record Company

    A Culture of Recording: Christopher Raeburn and the Decca Record Company

    A Culture of Recording: Christopher Raeburn and the Decca Record Company Sally Elizabeth Drew A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Sheffield Faculty of Arts and Humanities Department of Music This work was supported by the Arts & Humanities Research Council September 2018 1 2 Abstract This thesis examines the working culture of the Decca Record Company, and how group interaction and individual agency have made an impact on the production of music recordings. Founded in London in 1929, Decca built a global reputation as a pioneer of sound recording with access to the world’s leading musicians. With its roots in manufacturing and experimental wartime engineering, the company developed a peerless classical music catalogue that showcased technological innovation alongside artistic accomplishment. This investigation focuses specifically on the contribution of the recording producer at Decca in creating this legacy, as can be illustrated by the career of Christopher Raeburn, the company’s most prolific producer and specialist in opera and vocal repertoire. It is the first study to examine Raeburn’s archive, and is supported with unpublished memoirs, private papers and recorded interviews with colleagues, collaborators and artists. Using these sources, the thesis considers the history and functions of the staff producer within Decca’s wider operational structure in parallel with the personal aspirations of the individual in exerting control, choice and authority on the process and product of recording. Having been recruited to Decca by John Culshaw in 1957, Raeburn’s fifty-year career spanned seminal moments of the company’s artistic and commercial lifecycle: from assisting in exploiting the dramatic potential of stereo technology in Culshaw’s Ring during the 1960s to his serving as audio producer for the 1990 The Three Tenors Concert international phenomenon.

Examination Committee Member Dean Gronemeier, DMA, JD. Examination Committee Member Joe Bynum, MFA. Graduate College Faculty Representative ii ABSTRACT This doctoral dissertation provides information on how to develop the young dramatic soprano, specifically through more concentrated focus on the breath. Proper breathing is considered the single most important skill a singer will learn, but its methodology continues to mystify multitudes of singers and voice teachers. Voice professionals often write treatises with a chapter or two devoted to breathing, whose explanations are extremely varied, complex or vague. Young dramatic sopranos, whose voices are unwieldy and take longer to develop are at a particular disadvantage for absorbing a solid vocal technique. First, a description, classification and brief history of the young dramatic soprano is discussed along with a retracing of breath methodologies relevant to the young dramatic soprano’s development.

It was composed between 1857 and 1859 and premiered at the Königliches Hof- und Nationaltheater in Munich on 10 June 1865 with Hans von Bülow conducting. Wagner referred to the work not as an opera, but called it "eine Handlung" (literally a drama , a plot or an action ), which was the equivalent of the term used by the Spanish playwright Calderón for his dramas. Wagner's composition of Tristan und Isolde was inspired by the philosophy of Arthur Schopenhauer (particularly The World as Will and Representation ) and Wagner's affair with Mathilde Wesendonck. Widely acknowledged as one of the peaks of the operatic repertoire, Tristan was notable for Wagner's unprecedented use of chromaticism, tonality, orchestral colour and harmonic suspension.
