  • ARSC Journal
    A Discography of the Choral Symphony by J. F. Weber In previous issues of this Journal (XV:2-3; XVI:l-2), an effort was made to compile parts of a composer discography in depth rather than breadth. This one started in a similar vein with the realization that SO CDs of the Beethoven Ninth Symphony had been released (the total is now over 701). This should have been no surprise, for writers have stated that the playing time of the CD was designed to accommodate this work. After eighteen months' effort, a reasonably complete discography of the work has emerged. The wonder is that it took so long to collect a body of information (especially the full names of the vocalists) that had already been published in various places at various times. The Japanese discographers had made a good start, and some of their data would have been difficult to find otherwise, but quite a few corrections and additions have been made and some recording dates have been obtained that seem to have remained 1.Dlpublished so far. The first point to notice is that six versions of the Ninth didn't appear on the expected single CD. Bl:lhm (118) and Solti (96) exceeded the 75 minutes generally assumed (until recently) to be the maximum CD playing time, but Walter (37), Kegel (126), Mehta (127), and Thomas (130) were not so burdened and have been reissued on single CDs since the first CD release. On the other hand, the rather short Leibowitz (76), Toscanini (11), and Busch (25) versions have recently been issued with fillers.

  • Les Concerts
    MIHAI DE BRANCOVAN LES CONCERTS Régine Crespin chante Wagner. — Récitals de Gundula Janowitz et d'Elisabeth Schwarzkopf. J'ai naturellement tendance à me méfier de ce que l'on appelle, à Paris, le « concert Wagner », vocable alléchant sous lequel se cache, le plus souvent, une sorte de fourre-tout où l'on retrouve, pêle-mêle, les fragments symphoniques les plus célèbres, voire les plus rabâchés, des œuvres du maître de Bayreuth, véritable pot-pourri périodiquement offert en pâture au public du dimanche après-midi, lequel ne rêve que d'achever sa diges• tion bercé par les Murmures de la forêt ou bouleversé par les émotions plus fortes de la Marche funèbre. Cela dit, rassurez-vous, car c'est d'un « concert Wagner » d'un tout autre genre que je vais vous entretenir : loin d'être fait de bric et de broc, son programme ne comprenait que des pages totalement indépendantes de leur contexte ou pouvant en être isolées sans dommage, l'une d'entre elles étant toute la seconde moitié du premier acte de la Walküre, donc bien plus qu'un simple extrait. Et puis, il y avait la présence de deux solistes dont Régine Crespin, que l'on n'entend plus que trop rarement à Paris ces temps-ci. N'allez pas croire pour autant que ce concert ait été d'un bout à l'autre un modèle de perfection ; tant s'en faut. La première partie a même été franchement décevante : l'Orchestre philharmonique des pays de la Loire dirigé par Pierre Dervaux nous a donné, pour commencer, une exécution bruyante de l'ouverture du Fliegende Holländer : défavorisées par la modestie de leur nombre, les cordes étaient presque inaudibles, tandis que les cuivres, enivrés de leur puissance, s'en donnaient à cœur joie, allant même jusqu'à faire entendre plusieurs « couacs ».

  • A Culture of Recording: Christopher Raeburn and the Decca Record Company
    A Culture of Recording: Christopher Raeburn and the Decca Record Company Sally Elizabeth Drew A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Sheffield Faculty of Arts and Humanities Department of Music This work was supported by the Arts & Humanities Research Council September 2018 1 2 Abstract This thesis examines the working culture of the Decca Record Company, and how group interaction and individual agency have made an impact on the production of music recordings. Founded in London in 1929, Decca built a global reputation as a pioneer of sound recording with access to the world’s leading musicians. With its roots in manufacturing and experimental wartime engineering, the company developed a peerless classical music catalogue that showcased technological innovation alongside artistic accomplishment. This investigation focuses specifically on the contribution of the recording producer at Decca in creating this legacy, as can be illustrated by the career of Christopher Raeburn, the company’s most prolific producer and specialist in opera and vocal repertoire. It is the first study to examine Raeburn’s archive, and is supported with unpublished memoirs, private papers and recorded interviews with colleagues, collaborators and artists. Using these sources, the thesis considers the history and functions of the staff producer within Decca’s wider operational structure in parallel with the personal aspirations of the individual in exerting control, choice and authority on the process and product of recording. Having been recruited to Decca by John Culshaw in 1957, Raeburn’s fifty-year career spanned seminal moments of the company’s artistic and commercial lifecycle: from assisting in exploiting the dramatic potential of stereo technology in Culshaw’s Ring during the 1960s to his serving as audio producer for the 1990 The Three Tenors Concert international phenomenon.

    Lifestyle Academia 2016 Opera workshops for children and young adults | 28th Academia is on the horizon Once again this year, the organisers of Academia Vocalis have managed to bring international stars to Wörgl. And they're expecting another successful project. A new children's opera, by children and for children and young adults, in which the pranks of Max and Moritz are developed into a new production in the style of Wil- helm Busch, will be presented to the public in a professional performance in September 2016. Under the overall coordination of Maria Knoll-Madersbacher, the stars of tomorrow have the opportunity to demonstrate their talent in the new children's opera "Max & Moritz in Wörgl", in performances in Wörgl and Erl from September 9th to 18th, 2016. This new project comes after the sensational success of the 2008/2009 opera version of "The Jungle Book" by Rudyard Kipling. The libretto for the new Max & Moritz opera has al- ready been written (Walter Hohenauer, Wörgl). The composition will be done by young Wörgl talent Christian Spitzenstätter. Rehearsals started at the last JUKI opera workshop and will continue – after a casting in Octo- ber 2016 – throughout the entire year. Experienced professionals work with the children under the direction of Maria Knoll-Madersbacher. The premiere will take place on September 9th, 2016, in an evening performance at VZ Komma in Wörgl, and culminate in two performances in the Erl festival hall. Stars of yesterday and today Academia promises a lot. From July 29th to August 5th, 2016, Univ. Prof. Karlheinz Hanser will once again be holding the master course "The voice as an instrument".
