Introduction to Focus 2020 by Joel Sachs The seed for this year’s Focus Festival was planted in December 2018 at a Juilliard doctoral recital by the Chilean violist Sergio Muñoz Leiva. I was especially struck by the sonata of Rebecca Clarke, an Anglo-American composer of the early 20th century who has been known largely by that one piece, now a staple of the viola repertory. Thinking about the challenges she faced in establishing her credibility as a professional composer, my mind went to a group of women in that period, roughly 1885 to 1930, who struggled to be accepted as professional composers rather than as professional performers writing as a secondary activity or as amateur composers.

  • Johann Nepomuk David Und Seine Leipziger Zeit1 Maren Goltz
    Johann Nepomuk David und seine Leipziger Zeit1 Maren Goltz Vorbemerkung Dass die Aufarbeitung der NS-Vergangenheit von Hochschulen und Universitäten nach wie vor ein schwieriges und zum Teil hoch emotio- nales Forschungsfeld ist, zeigt nicht nur im Großen die heftig geführte Auseinandersetzung auf dem Frankfurter Historikertag 1998, sondern im Kleinen auch das Leipziger Symposium zu Johann Nepomuk David. Während in Frankfurt der Aufsehen erregenden Sektion „Historiker in der NS-Zeit – Hitlers willige Helfer?“ die Vergangenheit einiger Grün- derväter der BRD-Geschichtswissenschaft thematisiert wurde2 und die Feststellung, es habe zum Teil „ein[en] Verlust der Substanz“ gegeben und einzelne Vertreter des Faches seien gar „Vordenker der Vernichtung“ gewesen, massive Empörung im Publikum hervorrief, fiel in Leipzig insbesondere die Atmosphäre nonverbaler bis hin zu offen artikulier- ter Ablehnung gegenüber quellenorientierten Forschungsergebnissen auf. Dass sich die (mittlerweile längst emeritierten) Schüler noch immer stark mit ihren Lehrern – und im Falle Leipzigs sogar deren ehemali- gen Kollegen (!) – identifizieren und sich persönlich angegriffen fühlen, wenn Untersuchungen zu deren Haltung im Nationalsozialismus prä- sentiert werden, ist möglicherweise gerade in dieser Generation – offen- bar bis heute im Osten wie im Westen – besonders ausgeprägt und stellt für sich betrachtet ein eigenes, hochinteressantes Forschungsthema dar. Dass sich im Nachgang im hochschuleigenen MT-Journal allenfalls ein 1 Bei den folgenden Ausführungen handelt es sich um überarbeitete Teile aus meiner Schrift Musikstudium in der Diktatur.

He grew up as choirboy at the Augustinerstift in St. Florian near Linz, centre of activity of Anton Bruckner, and his development was influenced by the spirit of the composer. His educational work as Professor of Composition and as Director of tbe Leipzig Conservatorium (1934-45) brought him into direct contact with the works of J. S. Bach. In 1945, after the war, the composer was appointed Director of the Mozarteum in Salzburg. Three years later he accepted a Professorship at the Hochschule fiir Musik in Stuttgart, where he is still living. The Second Concerto for Strings was written in 1950.

(And a pleasure it was as well to assist the Verdehr Trio in its efforts to expand the literature for such a natural grouping.) Trio Concertante is a single movement work falling into three sections . In the first, the basic thematic materials appear in somewhat traditional fashion. In the extensive third section, these materials recur in a highly developmental way, with much use made of canon as well as less strict imitative devices. The middle section is devoted to unaccompanied solos for clarinet and violin. At the conclusion of the third section a brief clarinet solo followed by a climax for all three instruments brings the work to a close.

  • Newsletter from the Section for the Arts of Eurythmy, Speech and Music
    Newsletter from the Section for the Arts of Eurythmy, Speech and Music Easter 2012 FOREWORD Dear Colleagues, What does the future want of us and what do we bring towards it as spiritual impulses? The verse “Stars once spoke to man”, which was given to Marie Steiner for Christmas 90 years ago, is as topical as it was then. The new art of euryth - my was born 100 years ago. Step by step it was developed through the people who were destined to bring to life this, Steiner’s “favourite spiritual child”. Marie Steiner took on the task fully to support this child through her art of speech. Where would eurythmy be without her input? Many are the basic indications and stimuli of Rudolf Stein - er for our arts. It is a great challenge to unlock these bases, in order to make them spiritually real to ourselves. But today we cannot avoid this work. “Spiritually real” means essential. Ultimately, we are dealing with essential meetings in our arts. This thought is deepened through the various contribu - tions in this issue of the Newsletter . It meets us more urgent - ly as a necessity of our time. Warm thanks to all our contrib - utors!
