Brněnské Začátky Rudolfa Firkušného a Jeho Studia U Leoše Janáčka
MUSICOLOGICA BRUNENSIA 48, 2013, 1 DOI: 10.5817/MB2013-1-14 VERONIKA VEJVODOVÁ BRNĚNSKÉ ZAČÁTKY RUDOLFA FIRKUŠNÉHO A JEHO STUDIA U LEOŠE JANÁČKA Rudolf Firkušný byl jedním z nejslavnějších pianistů své generace. Ve sklad- bě byl žákem Leoše Janáčka, Viléma Petrželky a Josefa Suka. Byl důvěrným přítelem Bohuslava Martinů, Vítězslavy Kaprálové a dalších českých a světo- vých skladatelů, jejichž díla mnohdy uváděl ve světových premiérách (z českých jmenujme P. Bořkovce, V. Kaprála, J. Kvapila, O. Chlubnu, P. Janečka, V. Kap- rálovou, A. Hábu, J. Ježka; ze zahraničních G. C. Menottiho, S. Barbera, R. Cu- mmingse, P. Glasse, C. Guaneriho, F. Mignoneho, E. Solarese a další). Klavírní lekce navštěvoval nejprve u Ludmily Tučkové, posléze byl žákem v klavírní třídě Růženy Kurzové, která Firkušného učila podle metody svého manžela Viléma Kurze. Kurz se stal posledním českým pedagogem Rudolfa Firkušného. Za za- hraničními učiteli se vydal do Paříže (Alfred Cortot), Berlína a Itálie (Arthur Schnabel). Jako pianista podnikal světová turné: projezdil Evropu, Severní a Již- ní Ameriku. Vystupoval se světoznámými orchestry a dirigenty počínaje Kuse- vickým, Walterem, Klempererem, Szellem, Talichem, Mitropoulosem, konče Bernsteinem, Mutim, Mehtou, Bělohlávkem, Neumannem a Abbadem. Během své kariéry prosazoval české autory, především Dvořáka a jeho téměř neznámý klavírní koncert a díla Bohuslava Martinů, z nichž některá byla psána přímo pro Firkušného. Prameny ke studiu brněnských začátků Rudolfa Firkušného se nachází převáž- ně v Oddělení dějin hudby Moravského zemského muzea (nebo jen ODH MZM) v pozůstalosti, která dosud čeká na své zpracování. Pozůstalost obsahuje Fir- kušného osobní dokumenty, školní vysvědčení, studentské průkazy z varhanické školy a konzervatoře, programy a plakáty jeho koncertů, výstřižky, fotografie, rodinnou a částečně profesní korespondenci. -

A Survey of Czech Piano Cycles: from Nationalism to Modernism (1877-1930)
ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: A SURVEY OF CZECH PIANO CYCLES: FROM NATIONALISM TO MODERNISM (1877-1930) Florence Ahn, Doctor of Musical Arts, 2018 Dissertation directed by: Professor Larissa Dedova Piano Department The piano music of the Bohemian lands from the Romantic era to post World War I has been largely neglected by pianists and is not frequently heard in public performances. However, given an opportunity, one gains insight into the unique sound of the Czech piano repertoire and its contributions to the Western tradition of piano music. Nationalist Czech composers were inspired by the Bohemian landscape, folklore and historical events, and brought their sentiments to life in their symphonies, operas and chamber works, but little is known about the history of Czech piano literature. The purpose of this project is to demonstrate the unique sentimentality, sensuality and expression in the piano literature of Czech composers whose style can be traced from the solo piano cycles of Bedřich Smetana (1824-1884), Antonín Dvořák (1841-1904), Leoš Janáček (1854-1928), Josef Suk (1874-1935), Bohuslav Martinů (1890-1935) to Erwin Schulhoff (1894-1942). A SURVEY OF CZECH PIANO CYCLES: FROM ROMANTICISM TO MODERNISM (1877-1930) by Florence Ahn Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Maryland, College Park, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Musical Arts 2018 Advisory Committee: Professor Larissa Dedova, Chair Professor Bradford Gowen Professor Donald Manildi Professor -
Brahms's Song Collections," in Brahms Studies: Analytical and Historical Perspectives, Ed
Brahms’s Song Collections: Rethinking a Genre by Daniel Brian Stevens A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Music Theory) in The University of Michigan 2008 Doctoral Committee: Professor Kevin E. Korsyn, Chair Professor Walter T. Everett Associate Professor Johanna H. Prins Associate Professor Ramon Satyendra © Daniel Brian Stevens 2008 To Elizabeth and Olivia ii Acknowledgements This dissertation would not have been possible were it not for the generous support of many individuals. First and foremost, I would like to thank my advisor, Kevin Korsyn, whose keen insights and sensitive guidance fueled this project from its conception to its completion. I am grateful for the imaginative ideas that he freely shared with me throughout this process, ideas that were deeply formative both of this dissertation and of its author. It has been an inspiration to study with this consummate music scholar throughout my years at the University of Michigan. I owe an enormous debt of gratitude to the other members of my committee, each of whom responded to this project with enthusiasm and support. Five years ago, Walter Everett first drew me to the interpretive challenges and delights of studying song, and his valuable research in the area of text-music relations made an important contribution to my thinking. His close reading of and detailed responses to many of the ideas in this dissertation have yielded many suggestions for future research that will keep me busy for at least another five years. I have also benefited greatly from Ramon Satyendra’s refined musical and philosophical mind; his encouragement of my work and the unique perspective he brought to it enriched this project in innumerable ways. -
