    IGUSTAV MAHLER Ik STUDY OF HIS PERSONALITY 6 WORK PAUL STEFAN ML 41O M23S831 c.2 MUSI UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO Presented to the FACULTY OF Music LIBRARY by Estate of Robert A. Fenn GUSTAV MAHLER A Study of His Personality and tf^ork BY PAUL STEFAN TRANSLATED FROM THE GERMAN EY T. E. CLARK NEW YORK : G. SCHIRMER COPYRIGHT, 1913, BY G. SCHIRMER 24189 To OSKAR FRIED WHOSE GREAT PERFORMANCES OF MAHLER'S WORKS ARE SHINING POINTS IN BERLIN'S MUSICAL LIFE, AND ITS MUSICIANS' MOST SPLENDID REMEMBRANCES, THIS TRANSLATION IS RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED BERLIN, Summer of 1912. TRANSLATOR'S PREFACE The present translation was undertaken by the writer some two years ago, on the appearance of the first German edition. Oskar Fried had made known to us in Berlin the overwhelming beauty of Mahler's music, and it was intended that the book should pave the way for Mahler in England. From his appearance there, we hoped that his genius as man and musi- cian would be recognised, and also that his example would put an end to the intolerable existing chaos in reproductive music- making, wherein every quack may succeed who is unscrupulous enough and wealthy enough to hold out until he becomes "popular." The English musician's prayer was: "God pre- serve Mozart and Beethoven until the right man comes," and this man would have been Mahler. Then came Mahler's death with such appalling suddenness for our youthful enthusiasm. Since that tragedy, "young" musicians suddenly find themselves a generation older, if only for the reason that the responsibility of continuing Mah- ler's ideals now rests upon their shoulders in dead earnest.

  • Tertis's Viola Version of Elgar's Cello Concerto by Anthony Addison Special to Clevelandclassical
    Preview Heights Chamber Orchestra conductor's notes: Tertis's viola version of Elgar's Cello Concerto by Anthony Addison Special to ClevelandClassical An old adage suggested that violists were merely vio- linists-in-decline. That was before Lionel Tertis! He was born in 1876 of musical parents who had come to England from Poland and Russia and, at three years old, he started playing the piano. At six he performed in public, but had to be locked in a room to make him practice, a procedure that has actually fostered many an international virtuoso. At thirteen, with the agree- ment of his parents, he left home to earn his living in music playing in pickup groups at summer resorts, accompanying a violinist, and acting as music attendant at a lunatic asylum. +41:J:-:/1?<1>95@@1041?@A0510-@(>5:5@E;88131;2!A?5/@-75:3B5;85:-?45?

Fate intervened when fellow stu- dents wanted to form a string quartet. Tertis volunteered to play viola, borrowed an in- strument, loved the rich quality of its lowest string and thereafter turned the old adage up- side down: a not very obviously gifted violinist becoming a world class violist. But, until the viola attained respectability in Tertis’s hands, composers were reluctant to write for the instrument.

  • Current Review
    Current Review Christian Ferras plays Beethoven and Berg Violin Concertos aud 95.590 EAN: 4022143955906 4022143955906 Fanfare (Robert Maxham - 2012.05.01) Audite’s program of violin concertos by Ludwig van Beethoven and Alban Berg captures two moments in the life of Christian Ferras, the first a studio recording from November 19, 1951, made in the Jesus-Christus-Kirche after the 18-year-old violinist had given a live performance of the work at the Titania Palast and more than a decade before he would record the work with Herbert von Karajan and the same orchestra. The young Ferras sounds both flexible and sprightly in the first movement’s passagework, producing a suave tone that might be described as almost gustatory in its effect as he soars above the orchestra. That tone lacks the sharp edge of Zino Francescatti’s and even the slightly reedy quality of Arthur Grumiaux’s, and he never seems to be deploying it simply for the sheer beauty of it: As sumptuous as it might sound, it always serves his high-minded concept of the work itself. And his playing of Fritz Kreisler’s famous cadenza similarly subordinates virtuosity to musical effect. Karl Böhm sets the mood for a probing exploration of the slow movement, in which Ferras sounds similarly committed; he never allows himself to be diverted into mannerism or eccentricity, as Anne-Sophie Mutter does in her performance with Kurt Masur and the New York Philharmonic (Deutsche Grammophon 289 471 349, Fanfare 26:5 and 26:6). What the young Michael Rabin achieved in the showpieces of Wieniawski and Paganini, Ferras arguably exceeded in the music of Beethoven.

  • Zwischen Strengem Reglement Und Freier Entfaltung Die Ersten Kapellmeister Der Kurbrandenburgischen Hofkapelle in Der Zeit Vor Dem Dreißigjährigen Krieg
    Kulturgeschichte Preuûens - Colloquien 3 (2016) Detlef Giese Zwischen strengem Reglement und freier Entfaltung Die ersten Kapellmeister der kurbrandenburgischen Hofkapelle in der Zeit vor dem Dreiûigjährigen Krieg Abstract Dass es vornehmlich die Kapellmeister sind, die einem Klangkörper Gesicht und Stimme geben, gilt für die Gegenwart gleichermaûen wie für die Geschichte. Der jeweilige Stelleninhaber ist einerseits eingebunden in seine vertraglichen Verpflichtungen, besitzt andererseits aber auch gewisse Freiheiten, im Rahmen bestimmter Möglichkeiten seinen Tätigkeitsbereich für sich selbst zu definieren. Die Erwartungshaltungen der wechselnden Dienstherren wandeln sich ebenso wie das politisch-gesellschaftliche, institutionelle und allgemein kulturelle Umfeld, in der die administrative und künstlerische Arbeit des Kapellmeisters angesiedelt ist. Die Wirkung und Ausstrahlungskraft, welche die Protagonisten hierbei entfalten, sind wichtige Gradmesser für die Bedeutung sowohl der Person als auch der Institution im regionalen wie überregionalen Maûstab. Für die Frühzeit der kurbrandenburgischen Hofkapelle sind zumindest die Namen einiger Kapellmeister überliefert, die als empirische Individualitäten fassbar werden. Dem ersten namentlich bekannte Amtsträger Johann Wesalius, der bereits in den 1570er Jahren an der Spitze des Ensembles stand, kommt in diesem Zusammenhang Aufmerksamkeit und Interesse zu, desgleichen Musikern wie Johannes Eccard und Nikolaus Zangius, die in den ersten beiden Jahrzehnten des 17. Jahrhunderts zu den respektablen, im Falle von Eccard sogar zu den prominenten, bis heute immer noch wertgeschätzten deutschen Komponisten ihrer Zeit zählten. Obwohl sie an jeweilige Rahmenbedingungen materieller wie personeller Art gebunden waren, besaûen sie doch ausreichend Räume zur eigenen Entfaltung, um sich künstlerisch zu profilieren. Auf der anderen Seite steht eine strenge Reglementierungen der Aufgaben und Aktivitäten von Seiten der Regenten, die nicht selten einengend wirkten, zumal die Ressourcen über den betrachteten Zeitraum von 1570 bis ca.

  • A Librettist's Reflections on Opera in Our Times
    Israel Eliraz A LIBRETTIST'S REFLECTIONS ON OPERA IN OUR TIMES [1] Pierre Boulez may have mourned the death of the opera and suggested setting fire to opera houses (he has repented since and has even written in this rnusical form himsel~, but the Old Lady is still going strong. She is no Ionger as regal and as much admired as in the 18th century, nor is she as popular and vital as she was in mid-I9th century for bold young rivals have entered the arena: film, radio, musicals and television. But reviewing the new operas written in this century, from MOSES UND ARON by Schoenberg and WOZZECK by Berg, to works by Luigi Dallapiccola, lldebrando Pizzetti, Werner Egk, Marcel Delannoy and others, one is taken by surprise by the abundance, versatility and ingenuity in musical, theatrical and ideological terms, of modern opera. What the rnusical avant -garde considered a defunct creature, a 'dinosaur' of sorts (this strange animal is over 370 years old), became, to their dismay, a phoenix redux. At tirnes it metarnorphosed into political drarna (Weiii-Brecht); at others it returned to the oratory form (Stravinsky, Honegger, Debussy), and on still other occasions it turns upon itself with laudable irony, as in Mauricio Kagel's STAATSTHEATER. Anylhing can happen in an opera, all is allowed and, if one rnay venture to express some optirnisrn - which is not easy in our province - it still has some surprises in store for us. [2] Music Iovers have been accustorned to think that it is in the nature of opera to address the 'larger issues'- biblical, rnylhological, historical, national.

  • “Born to Run”—Bruce Springsteen (1975) Added to the National Registry: 2003 Essay by Cary O’Dell
    “Born to Run”—Bruce Springsteen (1975) Added to the National Registry: 2003 Essay by Cary O’Dell Original album Original label Bruce Springsteen “Born to Run” was Bruce Springsteen’s third album. The man who is “The Boss” has admitted that the creation of it was his blatant attempt for a true rock and roll record as well as commercial success after the tepid commercial reception of his earlier two albums, “Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J.” (1973) and “The Wild, the Innocent & the E Street Shuttle” (1973). On both counts, he got his wish. Upon its release, “Born to Run” would rise to number three on the charts. Besides gaining massive audience attention (by the end of the year Springsteen would be featured on the covers of both “Time” and “Newsweek”), “Born to Run” also saw the accomplishment of two other major factors in Springsteen’s artistic development. First, it saw the solidification of the line-up of Springsteen’s legendary back-up musicians, the E-Street Band. Second, it fully delivered on Springsteen’s early promise which saw him labeled as both a “modern day Dylan” and as “rock ‘n’ roll’s future.” Along with “Born to Run” being named to the National Registry in 2003, it has been ranked number eight on a list of rock’s all-time greatest albums by “Rolling Stone” magazine and was place at 18th on VH1’s list of the 500 greatest rock albums ever. Eight songs make up the tracks of “Born to Run”: “Thunder Road,” “Tenth Avenue Freeze- Out,” “Night,” “Backstreets,” “Born to Run,” “She’s the One,” “Meeting Across the River,” and “Jungleland.” In writing and developing the album, Springsteen has said he was hoping to recreate Phil Spector’s legendary “wall of sound” producing approach.

  • “Tragic” Mistake
    UNDOING A “TRAGIC” MISTAKE DETERMINING THE INNER-MOVEMENT ORDER OF MAHLER’S SIXTH SYMPHONY A critical examination of the evidence by Jerry Bruck New York City October 19th, 2002 A publication of THE KAPLAN FOUNDATION 450 Park Avenue New York City © Jerry Bruck, 2002 I. OVERVIEW Nearly a century has passed since Gustav Mahler composed his Sixth Symphony, yet confusion still persists among conductors, scholars and biographers regarding the order of its inner movements. Mahler began work on the symphony in 1903, first composing a Scherzo and an Andante as the central pair of its eventual four-movement structure, framing them with the remaining movements the following year. He then reversed this “S-A” order of inner movements before the symphony’s premiere in 1906, and thereafter never reverted to their previous arrangement. It was not until 1919, almost a decade after Mahler’s death, that the conductor Willem Mengelberg queried Mahler’s widow about the order of these inner movements. Her response: “First Scherzo, then Andante” prompted him to alter the “A-S” order of his conductor’s score, igniting a controversy that has spanned the decades since. With the publication in 1963 of the first Critical Edition of the Sixth by the Internationale Gustav Mahler Gesellschaft (IGMG), the matter seemed settled at last. In his introduction, IGMG founder-editor Erwin Ratz stated that the thematic similarities between the symphony’s opening movement and its Scherzo, commented upon during rehearsals for its premiere, had prompted Mahler to succumb to the advice of “outside influences” to transpose the Sixth’s inner movements.
