  • Recordings of Mahler Symphony No. 4

    Recordings of Mahler Symphony No. 4

    Recordings of Mahler Symphony No. 4 by Stan Ruttenberg, President, Colorado MahlerFest SUMMARY After listening to each recording once or twice to get the general feel, on bike rides, car trips, while on the Internet etc, I then listened more carefully, with good headphones, following the score. They are listed in the survey in about the order in which I listened, and found to my delight, and disgust, that as I went on I noticed more and more details to which attention should be paid. Lack of time and adequate gray matter prevented me from going back and re-listening all over again, except for the Mengelberg and Horenstein recordings, and I did find a few points to change or add. I found that JH is the ONLY conductor to have the piccolos play out adequately in the second movement, and Claudio Abbado with the Vienna PO is the only conductor who insisted on the two horn portamenti in the third movement.. Stan's prime picks: Horenstein, Levine, Reiner, Szell, Skrowaczewski, von Karajan, Abravanel, in that order, but the rankings are very close. Also very good are Welser- Most, and Klemperer with Radio Orchestra Berlin, and Berttini at Cologne. Not one conductor met all my tests of faithfulness to the score in all the too many felicities therein, but these did the best and at the same time produced a fine overall performance. Mengelberg, in a class by himself, should be heard for reference. Stan's soloist picks: Max Cencic (boy soprano with Nanut), in a class by himself. Then come, not in order, Davrath (Abravanel), Mathes (von Karajan), Trötschel (Klemperer BRSO), Raskin (Szell), Blegen (Levine), Della Casa (Reiner), Irmgard Seefried (Walter), Jo Vincent (Mengelberg), Ameling (Haitink RCOA), Ruth Zeisek (Gatti), Margaret Price with Horenstein, and Kiri Te Kanawa (Solti), Szell (Rattle broadcast), and Battle (Maazel).

    Tracing the Development of Extended Vocal Techniques in Twentieth-Century America

    CRUMP, MELANIE AUSTIN. D.M.A. When Words Are Not Enough: Tracing the Development of Extended Vocal Techniques in Twentieth-Century America. (2008) Directed by Mr. David Holley, 93 pp. Although multiple books and articles expound upon the musical culture and progress of American classical, popular and folk music in the United States, there are no publications that investigate the development of extended vocal techniques (EVTs) throughout twentieth-century American music. Scholarly interest in the contemporary music scene of the United States abounds, but few sources provide information on the exploitation of the human voice for its unique sonic capabilities. This document seeks to establish links and connections between musical trends, major artistic movements, and the global politics that shaped Western art music, with those composers utilizing EVTs in the United States, for the purpose of generating a clearer musicological picture of EVTs as a practice of twentieth-century vocal music. As demonstrated in the connecting of musicological dots found in primary and secondary historical documents, composer and performer studies, and musical scores, the study explores the history of extended vocal techniques and the culture in which they flourished.

    Arnold Schoenberg and Music Criticism

    JOURNAL OF OF RESEARCH ONLINE MusicA JOURNALA JOURNAL OF OF THE THE MUSIC UNIVERSITY COUNCIL OF OF ADELAIDE AUSTRALIA t ‘WHERE POWERS ARE BOLDLY STIRRING, I COUNSEL OPEN War’: ARNOLD SCHOEN- BERG AND MUSIC CRITICISM t is commonplace to contemplate Arnold Schoenberg, the putative father of ALEXANDER CARPENTER modern music, as the subject of music criticism, much of it staunchly negative. It is well-known that Schoenberg’s entire biography is coloured by his oppositional ■ Iorientation towards music critics and criticism: indeed, the title of this article comes Fine Arts and Humanities from Schoenberg’s (1909b/1975) bellicose essay, ‘About Music Criticism’, in which University of Alberta he damns those Viennese critics who prejudge music and who even disrupt or seek Augustana Campus to have performances stopped before a work can have a fair hearing. Over the 4901-46 Avenue course of his professional life, Schoenberg responded to critics and criticism in a number of different ways. First, he fired back, writing letters and essays defending his Camrose, Alberta music but also challenging not only the credentials of critics but the very institution Canada T4V 2R3 of music criticism itself. Second, he painted, literally painted, music critics in rather unflattering terms, representing on canvas what he considered their worst qualities in a series of amateur expressionistic paintings from the early part of the twentieth [email protected] century. And third, he withdrew himself and the modern music he championed into the Society for Private Musical Performance. Most importantly, Schoenberg also penned what I would consider his own music criticism: offering prescriptions for performance and interpretation, proposing a process for journalistic music criticism, musing on musical aesthetics generally and writing critical essays on the significance of specific composers.

One familiar answer suggests that it means everything. Toward the end of the millennium, as live performance became a central focus of opera studies, the idea of a definitive version of an operatic text came to seem less and less appealing, as did the very notion of an operatic “work.”1 Instead, scholars valorized the elusive, mutable, or open-ended, and opera itself was imagined as an unfinished business, its ontology anchored in the moment of performance. But if the performative turn celebrated “unfinishedness,” it also rendered the concept oddly void of meaning. Strictly speaking, the finishedness of an opera can only be measured against one version or another of the work concept. Once the composer’s intention has lost its authority and the essence of an opera is situated less in its script than in its live in- stantiation, what does it mean to speak of an unfinished opera? If the locus of opera is the performance rather than the score, can Turandot be said to be any less com- plete than Tosca just because Alfano or Berio wrote the notes for the final scene? If the work is recast as a unique event that concludes every time the curtain falls, what space is left for the inconclusive? Although these questions have a bearing on opera criticism in general, they de- rive from my engagement with one particular opera, and in this article I will reroute them back into it: Alban Berg’s Lulu, which the composer struggled with from the late 1920s until his death in 1935.2 In November of that year, Berg suffered an unfor- tunate insect bite that would lead to his death by blood poisoning on Christmas Eve.

You would be devastated, being prevented from spending time with your idol because you needed to go care for your sick and dying mother; it would feel as if both your dream and your ​ ​ reality were shattered. This is the exact situation the pianist Ludwig van Beethoven found himself in when he traveled to Vienna in hopes of receiving lessons from his role model, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
