New York Represented in Philadelphia by JAMES BELLAK'S SONS 1 129 Chestnut Street — *'Don Juan," a Tone-poem (after Nicolaus Lenau), Op. 20. Richard Strauss (Born at Munich, June 11, 1864; now living at Charlottenburg Berlin.) "Don Juan" is known as the first of Strauss's symphonic or tone- poems, but "Macbeth," Op. 23, although published later, was com- posed before it. The first performance of "Don Juan" was at the second subscription concert of the Grand Ducal Court Orchestra of Weimar in the fall of 1889. The Signale, No. 67 (November, 1889), stated that the tone-poem was performed under the direction of the composer, "and was received with great applause." (Strauss was a court conductor at Weimar 1889-94.) The first performance in Boston was at a Symphony Concert, led by Mr. Nikisch, October 31, 1891. The piece has also been played at these concerts: November 5, 1898, November 1, 1902, February 11, April 29, 1905. "Don Juan" was played here by the Chicago Orchestra, Theodore Thomas conductor, March 22, 1898. The work is scored for three flutes (one interchangeable with piccolo), two oboes, English horn, two clarinets, two bassoons, double-bassoon, four horns, three trumpets, three trombones, tuba, a set of three kettle- drums, triangle, cymbals, glockenspiel, harp, strings. The score is dedicated ' 'To my dear friend, Ludwig Thuille," a composer and teacher, born at Bozen in 1861, who was a fellow-student at Munich. Extracts from Lenau's * dramatic poem, ''Don Juan," are printed on a fly-leaf of the score. We have taken the liberty of defining the characters here addressed by the hero. The speeches to Don Diego are in the first scene of the poem; the speech to Marcello, in the last. * Nicolaus Lenau, whose true name was Nicolaus Niembsch von Strehlenau, was born at Cstatad, Hun- gary, August 13, 1802. He studied law and medicine at Vienna, but practised neither. In 1832 he visited the United States. In October, 1844, he went mad, and his love for Sophie von Lowenthal had much to do with the wretched mental condition of his later years. He died at Oberdobling, near Vienna, August 22, 1850, He himself called "Don Juan" his strongest work.

That is to say, two eminent musicians come to our store. They sit down and play those pianos, not one in each lot or style, but every instrument, individually, test its action, its tone, its touch, and judge therefrom its real value in money. The result of each examination is written on a certificate form, signed by the juror, and sealed to the back of the instru- ment. This system is for the benefit of purchasers,— for the pro- tection of the piano buyer who is likely to be confused by the statements of salesmen with little regard for the truth. Do you suppose the jurors could afford to jeopardize their reputation by certifying an inferior piano ? THE TONE JURY HUGH A. CLARKE THOMAS A'BECKET HENRY GORDON THUNDER W. W. GILCHRIST SAMUEL I.

HEPPE & SON (THREE STORES) 1115-1117 Chestnut, 6th, and Thompson PHILADELPHIA, PA. 8 J Don Juan (zu Diego). Den Zauberkreis, den unermesslich weiten, Von vielfach reizend schonen Weiblichkeiten Mocht' ich durchziehn im Sturme des Genusses, Am Mund der Letzten sterben eines Kusses. O Freiind, durch alle Raume mocht' ich fliegen, Wo eine Schonheit blunt, hinknien vor Jede, Und, war's auch nur fur Augeriblicke, siegen. Don Juan (zu Diego). Ich fliehe Uberdruss und Lustermattung, Erhalte frisch im Dienste mich des Schonen, Die Einzle krankend, schwarm' ich fur die Gattung Der Odem einer Frau, heut Friihlingsduft, Driickt morgen mich vielleicht wie Kerkerluft. Wenn wechselnd ich mit meiner Liebe wandre Im weiten Kreis der schonen Frauen, 1st meine Lieb' an jeder eine andre; Nicht aus Ruinen will ich Tempel bauen. Ja, Leidenschaft ist immer nur die neue; Sie lasst sich nicht von der zu jener bringen, Sie kann nur sterben hier, dort neu entspringen, Und kennt sie sich, so weiss sie nichts von Reue Wie jede Schonheit einzig in der Welt, So ist es auch die Lieb', der sie gefallt. Hinaus und fort nach immer neuen Siegen, So lang der Jugend Feuerpulse fliegen! Don Juan (zu Marcello). Es war ein schoner Sturm, der mich getrieben, Er hat vertobt, und Stille ist geblieben. Scheintot ist alles Wtinschen, alles Hoffen; Vielleicht ein Blitz aus Hoh'n, die ich verachtet, Hat totlich meine Liebeskraft getroffen, Und plotzlich ward die Weit mir wiist, umnachtet; Vielleicht auch nicht; der Brennstoff ist verzehrt, Und kalt und dunkel ward es auf dem Herd. * These lines have been Englished by John P. Jackson : * John P. Jackson, journalist, died at Paris, December i, 1897, at the age of fifty. He was for many years on the staff of the New York Herald.

THE design of this volume is to show the degree of prominence and influence attained by the Hebrews of the United States. The preparation of the work was undertaken at the suggestion of the numerous readers of a less elaborate series of sketches upon the same subject which appeared in the " New York Mail and Express " about one year since. In the course of his earlier researches the author brought to light a vast amount of interesting material regard- ing the Hebrews in this country, the publication of which, in the secular press was, for obvious reasons, found impractic- able. The material then secured, which has been supple- mented by further investigation, constitutes the present volume. In preparing this work the author has con- sulted various State and Municipal histories and the collections of various Historical Societies, including " Colonial History of New York," " Westcott's Philadelphia." " Historical Collections of Rhode Island," " Daly's Jewish Settlements in North America," " Steven's History of Georgia," "Historical Collections of Georgia," ""Arnold's VI PREFACE.

ELLIS, Manager* l HAROLD BAUER Now playing in America in all prominent cities, in recital and with important musical organizations, writes as follows of the ifeim&lfamlm PIANO Messrs. Mason & Hamlin, Boston. Gentlemen : In a former letter to you I expressed my delight and satisfaction with your magnifi- cent pianofortes, and I have once more to thank you and to admire your untiring efforts to attain an artistic ideal. Your latest model, equipped with the centripetal tension bars, has developed and intensified the qualities of its precursors and has surpassed my highest expectations. As you know, I have used these instruments under many different conditions, in recital, with orchestra, in small and in large halls, and their adaptability to all require- ments has equally astonished and delighted me. The tone is, as always, one of never- failing beauty, the action is wonderful in its delicacy and responsiveness, and I consider that, as an instrument for bringing into prominence the individual qualities of tone and touch of the player, the Mason & Hamlin piano stands absolutely pre-eminent. The vertical grand (style O) is the only instrument of its kind, as far as I am aware, capable of giving complete satisfaction to any one accustomed to play upon a grand, and I have no hesitation in saying that it is without exception the finest upright piano I have ever met with.

  • Proquest Document 5/5 Eva Lundell
    The Ensemble Étude for Violins: An Examination with an Annotated Survey of Violin Trios and Quartets and an Original Étude for Four Violins by Eva Lundell A Research Paper Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts Approved April 2011 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Jonathan Swartz, Chair Jody Rockmaker Nancy Buck Frank Koonce Kay Norton ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY May 2011 ABSTRACT Études written for violin ensemble, which include violin duets, trios, and quartets, are less numerous than solo études. These works rarely go by the title “étude,” and have not been the focus of much scholarly research. Ensemble études have much to offer students, teachers and composers, however, because they add an extra dimension to the learning, teaching, and composing processes. This document establishes the value of ensemble études in pedagogy and explores applications of the repertoire currently available. Rather than focus on violin duets, the most common form of ensemble étude, it mainly considers works for three and four violins without accompaniment. Concentrating on the pedagogical possibilities of studying études in a group, this document introduces creative ways that works for violin ensemble can be used as both études and performance pieces. The first two chapters explore the history and philosophy of the violin étude and multiple-violin works, the practice of arranging of solo études for multiple instruments, and the benefits of group learning and cooperative learning that distinguish ensemble étude study from solo étude study. The third chapter is an annotated survey of works for three and four violins without accompaniment, and serves as a pedagogical guide to some of the available repertoire.

    The Everlasting Folia: A Violinist’s Guide to Folias through Context, Catalog, Analysis, and Practice Emily M Acri A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts University of Washington 2020 Reading Committee: Ronald Patterson, Chair David Rahbee Melia Watras Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Music ©Copyright 2020 Emily M Acri University of Washington Abstract The Everlasting Folia: A Violinist’s Guide to Folias through Context, Catalog, Analysis, and Practice Emily M Acri Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Ronald Patterson School of Music Arcangelo Corelli’s Follia was the last of his 12 Violin Sonatas Op. 5, published in 1700. The work is a theme and variations based on the later folia, a musical form from the late 17th century. Corelli’s Follia was highly regarded in the violin repertoire and created a standard for those to follow. Many composers sought to compose their own folia, many in direct relation to Corelli’s masterwork. There are documents citing the array of folia-related works, but there is not a source specifically focusing on the “Violin Folia Family”. As the title suggests, this document is organized in four major sections: Contextualizing Relevant Performer-Composers, Violin- Centric Folia Catalog, Comparing the Folias, and Practice Guide. This multifaceted document serves as a resource for teachers, students and performers on their quest to learn about this everlasting, ever-changing body of work for the violin. Acknowledgements Much of this dissertation was written during the uncertain times of COVID-19. I am grateful for Guemes Island, Washington for being a beautiful source of peace to live in during this time.
