March 31, 1732; died at Vienna, May 31, 1809) This symphony is the fifth of six written by Haydn for a society in Paris known as the Concert de la Loge Olympique. The sym- phonies were ordered in 1784, when Haydn was living at Esterhaz. Written during 1784-89, they are in C, G minor, E-flat, B-flat, D, and A. They were published in Paris as Op. 51, "Repertoire de la Loge Olympique." The symphony that is No. 10 in Breitkopf and Hartel's Catalogue is No. 24 in Sieber's (orchestral parts only), No. 13 in the Library of the Paris Conservatory (copies of the scores), No. 12 in Bote and Bock's (scores). Early in the eighteenth century, there were no performances at the Paris Opera on certain solemn days of the Roman Catholic Church—the Festival of the Purification of the Virgin, the An- nunciation, from Passion Sunday to the Monday of Quasimodo or Low Sunday, Ascension, Whitsunday, Corpus Christi, the Assump- tion of the Virgin, the Day of the Nativity (September 8), All Saints, Day of the Conception, Christmas Eve, Christmas, etc. New ... in the Hat and Gown Shop For afternoon affairs . concert, reception, matinee, luncheon, tea . the Hat and Gown Shop features Canton or semi-sheer Crepe Frocks with flattering touches of embroidery, binche or Alencon lace.

LOESER'S Fulton at Bond, Brooklyn TRIangle 8100 ; In 1725 Anne Danican Philidor,* one of the famous family, ob- tained permission to give concerts on those days. He agreed to pay a yearly sum of 10,000 livres. (Some say the sum was 6,000 livres.) He also agreed that no operatic music and no composition of any nature with French text should be performed, but this obligation was afterwards annulled. Thus were the Concerts Spirituels founded. They took place in the Salle des Suisses at the Palace of the Tuileries. The first was on Passion Sunday, March 18, 1725, when the programme comprised a Suite of airs for violin ; a Caprice a motet "Confitebor" ; a motet "Cantate Domino" all by Michel Richard de Lalandef; and the concerto "Christmas Night," by *This Philidor, born at Paris in 1681, died there in 1731. A member of the King's orchestra, he published pieces for flute, violin, oboe (1712), and composed pastoral operas, "L'Amour vainqueur" (1697) ; "Diane et Endymion" (1698) ; "Danae" (1701). He is not to be confounded with Frangois Andre" Danican Philidor, the celebrated com- poser of operas, even more renowned as a chess player (1726-1795). fLalande, the fifteenth child of a poor Parisian tailor, was born in 1657. He died in 1726, master of Louis XIV's chamber music. Lalande wrote sixty motets for five voices with orchestra which were published in handsome form in 1729 at the expense of the King. Lalande also wrote a "M61icent" (libretto after Moliere), which was not performed ; also ballets—one, "Les Elements" (1721) with Destouches.

    ©Denis Rouvre ©Philippe Parent Les Arts Florissants – William Christie L’air français, un art intime Conciertos en seis ciudades de América Latina Les Arts Florissants presentan su primera gira en América Latina desde 2004: L’air français, un art intime El aria francesa, un arte íntimo Al final del reinado de Louis XIV; cambia el estilo de vida aristocrático, y el desarrollo de los salons da como resultado una vuelta de la sociedad elegante desde Versalles a París. Este fue el inicio de una nueva era socio-cultural: en música, esto provocó una evolución en la ambición y el formato. Aunque las formas a gran escala, sobre todo la Tragedia – lírica, continuaron siendo los modelos más avanzados para el entretenimiento de la corte, un arte más confidencial se desarrollaba, favoreciendo formas más modestas, como la sonata. En el ámbito de la música vocal, el air de cour se había vuelto muy popular desde el siglo XVI, y se le unió, a principios del XVIII, un nuevo género: La cantate. Esta forma se extendió a través de los círculos musicales franceses, coexistiendo con la más Antigua y muy en boga: cantata Italiana. La cantate francesa se distinguía de su prima italiana por su estilo, heredado de la tragédie lyrique, y en particular por la atención puesta en el texto. Estas obras eran la quintaesencia de “el buen gusto francés”, combinando los delicados ritmos de elocuencia poética con graciosas melodías. Estas arias à la française eran cantadas por uno o dos cantantes, acompañados de un clave, al que se le podían unir varios instrumentos: flauta, violín, viola, por ejemplo.

  • Haydn's Symphony No. 94 'Surprise'
    Haydn’s Symphony IB No. 94 ‘Surprise’ Hanh Doan is a former AST and head of music, and currently works as a part-time music teacher at Beaumont School in Hanh Doan St Albans. She is the author of various books, and writes articles and resources for Music Teacher magazine, exam boards and other music education publishers. Introduction aydn’s ‘Surprise’ Symphony is one of the International Baccalaureate’s prescribed works for 2020-2021 and will feature in the listening paper. Students will have to answer questions about Hthe Symphony in terms of analysis, and if they are students doing music Higher level, they will need to compare elements from this work with the other prescribed work, Rachmaninov’s Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini. This resource will give a detailed analysis of the work by movement, including the notable features of each of the elements. Context Haydn is often regarded as the ‘father of the symphony’, and over the 40 years in which he wrote his 106 symphonies, the nature of the genre changed dramatically, from a work that served a variety of musical and social functions to a genre that would become central to musical life for the next two centuries. Haydn’s output proves he was extraordinary at making this transition, and throughout his career he gradually reshaped the nature of the symphony, providing a model for future composers of the genre. Haydn’s symphonies are often separated into periods of time or places over the course of his career: Ɂ The symphonies for Eisenstadt (1761-5) Ɂ Esterház and the Advent of Sturm und Drang (1766-74) Ɂ The symphonies of 1775-84 Ɂ The Paris symphonies (1785-6) Ɂ The Tost symphonies (1787) Ɂ The symphonies for Comte d’Ogny (1788-9) Ɂ The ‘Salomon’ symphonies (London, 1791-5) Haydn wrote his ‘Surprise’ Symphony in 1791 for a concert series in London during one of his first visits to England.

  • Haydn and Gellert: Parallels in Eighteenth-Century Music and Literature*
    Haydn and Gellert: Parallels in Eighteenth-Century Music and Literature* By David P. Schroeder During the 1780s, Haydn's approach to the symphony underwent a signifi- cant change. While one could look at this change simply as another step in the composer's stylistic development, it is possible that there was an impor- tant cause for transforming the symphony at this time. During the early '80s, Haydn's personal contacts and reading made him very much aware of the tenets' of the Enlightenment. This can be seen in his association with persons such as Franz Sales' von Greiner, Gottfried van Swieten, and Johann Caspar Lavater; by his attendance at literary salons which brought him into contact with Johann Baptist von Alxinger, Aloys Blumauer, Michael Denis, Lorenz Haschka, Tobias Philipp Gebler and Ignaz von Born;! and by his eventual membership in the Masonic Lodge "Zur wahren Eintracht." As a result of these social and literary influences, it is entirely possible that Haydn revised his symphonic approach to bring it into line with the prevailing attitude towards'literature. This attitude, very simply, was that literature should serve the goals of the Enlightenment. To be sure, a symphony has obvious limitations in achieving this aim, but there are, nevertheless, various ways in which it can. One could argue that the most notable change to the symphony in the mid-'80s was its new dramatic intelligibility, and that it is this, along with Haydn's new relationship with his audience, which places his late sym- phonies within the tradition of the Enlightenment. Ifliterature had a bearing on Haydn's symphonic writing, then one must be prepared to say which writers or literary trends influenced him.

Oxford History of Western Music: Richard Taruskin See also from Grove Music Online Lorenzo da Ponte Le nozze di Figaro THE “DA PONTE” OPERAS Chapter: CHAPTER 9 Enlightenment and Reform Source: MUSIC IN THE SEVENTEENTH AND EIGHTEENTH CENTURIES Author(s): Richard Taruskin After Die Entführung , Mozart did not complete another opera for four years. Part of the reason for the gap had to do with his burgeoning career in Vienna as a freelancer, which meant giving lots of concerts, which (as we will see) meant writing a lot of piano concertos. But it was also due to Joseph II’s unexpected disbanding of the national singspiel company and its replacement by an Italian opera buffa troupe at court whose regular composers Giovanni Paisiello, Vincente Martìn y Soler, and Antonio Salieri—Italians all (Martìn being a naturalized Spaniard)—had a proprietary interest in freezing out a German rival, especially one as potentially formidable as Mozart. 1 / 4 2011.01.27. 15:29 The “Da Ponte” Operas : Music In The Seventeenth And Eighteenth Cent... http://www.oxfordwesternmusic.com/view/Volume2/actrade-9780195... fig. 9-7 Lorenzo da Ponte, engraving by Michele Pekenino after a painting by Nathaniel Rogers (Mozarteum, Salzburg). Mozart’s letters testify to his difficulty in gaining access to Lorenzo da Ponte (1749–1838, original name Emmanuele Conegliano), the newly appointed poet to the court theater. (There was a certain typically Joseph II symbolism in the fact that a specialist in opera buffa should have been chosen to replace the aged Metastasio, the paragon of the seria , who died in 1782 at the age of 84.) “These Italian gentlemen are very civil to your face,” Mozart complained to his father in 1783.

    HEIDELBERGER BEITRÄGE ZUR ROMANISCHEN LITERATURWISSENSCHAFT www.helix.uni-hd.de Artikel Le monstre « classique », un trompe-l'œil ? Atys, « tragédie en musique », et l’esthétique baroque Christian Grünnagel HeLix 1 (2009), S. 52-75. Abstract Atys, one of Jean-Baptiste Lully’s operas (libretto by Philippe Quinault) that experienced a sort of revival stemming from the Arts Florissants’ production in 1987, is typically taken by scholars and spectators as the representative example of its genre, the so-called “tragédie en musique.” This article analyzes the presence of the monster and monstrosity in act five from a literary point of view, elements regarded traditionally as incompatible with the aesthetics of French classicism. It is, however, possible to come to a “baroque” re-interpretation of Atys, bearing in mind the myth-based plot of this opera which features not only Foucault’s “monster” par excellence of the Grand Siècle, i.e., the hermaphrodite, but also includes the monstre sacré of Italian opera, the castrato.

Bozhinov Master of Music, McGill University, 2013 Bachelor of Music, University of British Columbia, 2011 Diploma in Performing Arts, Douglas College, 2009 Supervisory Committee Dr. Susan Lewis, Dean, Faculty of Fine Arts Supervisor Dr. Elissa Poole, School of Music Departmental Member Dr. Jennifer Wise, Theatre Department Outside Member iii Abstract This dissertation is the first study of François Campion’s (1686-1747) Avantures Pastorales Op.3 (1719), a collection of airs, interspersed within a connecting narrative. The story is a retelling of the myth of Damon and Philis, while the fifty-two interspersed airs are typical for the genre in the early-eighteenth century and provide emotional depth and commentary on the protagonists’ relationship. The dissertation features a critical analysis of the music, context and plot, alongside a critical edition. I will argue that although the Ballard firm held monopoly over the air publishing business, Campion found a market niche in the wealthy Parisian salons by publishing Avantures Pastorales in an innovative and creative format.
