Tällaista kattavaa musiikkikentän kartoitusta tuolta ajalta ei ole aiemmin tehty. Olennainen tutkimuskysymys on sota-ajan aiheuttamien haasteiden kartoitus. Tutkimalla sotavuosien musiikkielämän ohjelmistopolitiikkaa ja vastaanottoa haetaan vastauksia siihen, miten sota-aika on heijastunut konserteissa ja niiden ohjelmistoissa ja miten merkitykselliseksi yleisö on elävän musiikkielämän kokenut. Tutkimuksen viitekehys on historiallinen. Aineisto on kerätty arkistotutkimuksen menetelmin ja useita eri lähteitä vertailemalla on pyritty mahdollisimman kattavaan kokonaisuuteen. Tutkittava -

Scaramouche and the Commedia Dell'arte
Scaramouche Sibelius’s horror story Eija Kurki © Finnish National Opera and Ballet archives / Tenhovaara Scaramouche. Ballet in 3 scenes; libr. Paul [!] Knudsen; mus. Sibelius; ch. Emilie Walbom. Prod. 12 May 1922, Royal Dan. B., CopenhaGen. The b. tells of a demonic fiddler who seduces an aristocratic lady; afterwards she sees no alternative to killinG him, but she is so haunted by his melody that she dances herself to death. Sibelius composed this, his only b. score, in 1913. Later versions by Lemanis in Riga (1936), R. HiGhtower for de Cuevas B. (1951), and Irja Koskkinen [!] in Helsinki (1955). This is the description of Sibelius’s Scaramouche, Op. 71, in The Concise Oxford Dictionary of Ballet. Initially, however, Sibelius’s Scaramouche was not a ballet but a pantomime. It was completed in 1913, to a Danish text of the same name by Poul Knudsen, with the subtitle ‘Tragic Pantomime’. The title of the work refers to Italian theatre, to the commedia dell’arte Scaramuccia character. Although the title of the work is Scaramouche, its main character is the female dancing role Blondelaine. After Scaramouche was completed, it was then more or less forgotten until it was published five years later, whereupon plans for a performance were constantly being made until it was eventually premièred in 1922. Performances of Scaramouche have 1 attracted little attention, and also Sibelius’s music has remained unknown. It did not become more widely known until the 1990s, when the first full-length recording of this remarkable composition – lasting more than an hour – appeared. Previous research There is very little previous research on Sibelius’s Scaramouche. -

Los Angeles Philharmonic
LOS ANGELES PHILHARMONIC Critical Acclaim “The most successful American orchestra.” - Los Angeles Times “It should be chiseled above the doors of every symphony hall: What an orchestra plays matters as much as how it plays, if not more so. By that measure a strong case can be made that the Los Angeles Philharmonic…is the most important orchestra in the country.” - The New York Times “If ever an orchestra was riding the crest of a wave, it is the Los Angeles Philharmonic.” - The Times (London) “…the most multi-faceted orchestra in the world and certainly the one putting the greatest emphasis on music of our time.” - Los Angeles Times “Under Salonen, the [Los Angeles] Philharmonic became the most interesting orchestra in America; under Dudamel, it shows no signs of relinquishing the title.” - The New Yorker Best Orchestras of 2012 – #1) Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra – “The most talked-about and widely-travelled US orch, carrying Brand Dudamel to all four corners of the earth, split a Mahler cycle between US and Venezuela, advanced tremendous outreach work across its own urban area.” - Norman Lebrecht’s Slipped Disc “The L.A. Phil still boasts the most varied and venturesome offerings of any major orchestra.” - Los Angeles Times “At a time when many orchestras are offering ‘safer,’ crowd-pleasing repertoire picks online, it’s refreshing to see the LA Phil coming out of the gate with programming that speaks to why it is at the forefront of American orchestras today.” - Billboard “‘Blow bright’ is the seventh work commissioned and performed by the L.A. -

Curiously, despite the fascinating characteristics of Lindberg’s works and the several interesting subjects his mu- sic brings up, his works have not been widely researched.
