Find us: Columbus Chapter AGO Page 2 The Dean’s List Dear Friends: First of all, thank you to the more than 100 people who responded to the chapter survey on programming. One of the biggest challenges set before the Executive Committee is to choose programs that reflect the goals and mission statement of the AGO while also benefitting as large a portion of our membership as possible. Our chapter is blessed to have a member- ship that encompasses a wide range of skills and training, and it is a spe- cial challenge to conceive of programs and workshops that will benefit every demographic that the chapter serves. Your feedback through this survey has been invaluable in helping the Executive Committee better understand the educational needs of our members and shape our future program offerings. A special thanks to those who offered their own pro- gram ideas, which were marvelous – these will be a solid foundation for future planning. As chapter elections approach, I’d like to call your attention to the dedi- cation of the members of the Executive Committee. These members’ commitment includes regular attendance at Execu- tive Committee meetings and chapter programs, responsibility for coordinating one chapter program during each year of tenure, and assistance with other projects of the chapter (for example, serving on an ad hoc committee). In addition, the committee plans all programming and shapes chapter procedures and policies. Please take a moment to review the bios of the five nominees for the Executive Committee Class of 2015 that are found in this issue. On behalf of the entire chapter, I want to express great appreciation to John Bryan, Dennis Crill, Brett Greene, Carol Neff, and Wanda Neudorfer-Pack for agreeing to be included on the slate of nominees – this demonstrates a true commitment to the fu- ture of our chapter. Many thanks also to the members of the Nominating Committee: Chad Baker, Jim Hildreth, Carol Hofer (Chair), Katie O’Keefe, and Anne Saylor. Ballots will be mailed to you in the coming weeks. Finally, the Executive Committee will be considering requests for co-sponsorships early this summer. This year the chap- ter co-sponsored Hector Olivera’s Children’s Concert, presented by the Zanesville Concert Association in early March. This concert introduced approximately 1,400 children to the organ under Mr. Olivera’s expert and enthusiastic guidance – an experience that many of them are certain to remember. We were very pleased to be able to help support this en- deavor and look forward to providing assistance for other such valuable programs. More information on how to request a co-sponsorship from the chapter is found later in this issue. A very joyful Eastertide to each of you! All best wishes, Sara Seidel Thank You Columbus Chapter and Thank You Zanesville Concert Association! Many thanks to the Columbus Chapter of the AGO for your financial support to our outreach concert provided by Hector Olivera to over 1000 Muskingum County fourth grade students on Monday, March 5, 2012 at Secrest Auditorium in Za- nesville. Hector dressed in his "world wrestling" t-shirt and provided both classical and movie music to inspire and en- courage the students. Before the end of the concert the kids were chanting Johann Sebastian Bach! He brought several students on stage to explore the organ. One student already plays piano; Hector gave her a short organ lesson at both instruments. She was able play on two manuals and one pedal after the lesson. The kids really enjoyed the event. This is our 25th year of providing a free classical concert for local fourth grade students. Our Zanesville Concert Association Foundation sponsors this event to introduce and develop the audience of tomorrow as one of their most important goals.

    Selected Organ Works of Joseph Ahrens: A Stylistic Analysis of Freely Composed Works and Serial Compositions A document submitted to The Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS in the Keyboard Studies Division of the College-Conservatory of Music 2013 by Eun Hye Kim MM, University of Cincinnati, 2007 MM, Hansei University, 2004 BA, Seoul Jangsin University and Theological Seminary, 2002 Committee Chair: Roberta Gary, DMA Committee Member: John Deaver, DMA Committee Member: David Berry, PhD Abstract Joseph Ahrens (1904–97) was a twentieth-century German composer, virtuoso organist, and teacher. He was a professor of church music at the Berlin Academy of Music (Berlin Hochschule für Musik), organist at the Cathedral of St. Hedwig, and choir director and organist at the Salvator Church in Berlin. He contributed to twentieth-century church music, especially of the Roman Catholic Church, and composed many works for organ and various choral forces. His organ pieces comprise chorale-based pieces, free (non-chorale) works, liturgical pieces, and serial compositions. He was strongly influenced by twentieth-century German music trends such as the organ reform movement, neo-baroque style, and, in his late period, serial techniques. This document examines one freely composed work and two serial compositions by Joseph Ahrens: Canzone in cis (1944), Fantasie und Ricercare (1967), and Trilogia Dodekaphonica (1978). The purpose is to demonstrate that Ahrens’s style developed throughout his career, from a post-Wagnerian harmonic language to one that adopted twentieth-century techniques, including serialism, while retaining the use of developed thematic material and a connection to neo-baroque characteristics in terms of forms and textures.

  • Karl Straube, Old Masters and Max Reger a Study in 20Th Century Performance Practice
    Karl Straube, Old Masters and Max Reger A Study in 20th Century Performance Practice By Bengt Hambraeus In 1904, the German organist Karl Straube published Alte Meister, an anthology in two volumes of organ music from the 17th and early 18th centuries (Peters 3065 a/b). The second of these volumes was replaced in 1929 with two new ones, with the same title (Peters 4301 a/b). The 3065a volume, which is still available, bears the dedication “Dem jungen Meister Max Reger”, This dedication can be understood in two ways. Either: to a young master composer being on a par with his classical colleagues from past centuries; or: to a young promising composer (Reger, by then 31 years old, had already written many of his most important organ works). We do not have to speculate about the intention of the dedication as such, only observe it in relation to three facts: (i) Both Straube and Reger were born in the same year (1873) and thus belong to the same generation; Reger died in 1916, Straube in 1950; since 1903 Straube had held different positions at the Thomas Church in Leipzig, until 1918 as an organist, and subsequently as choral director; furthermore he had been teaching the organ at the Leipzig Music Conservatory since 1907. (2) Since the beginning of the century, Straube had published a few practical editions of old and more recent organ music. Among the latter, we find his alternative versions to some already printed organ works by Reger. His various editions can easily allow us to understand how he himself may have performed the music, and how and why his interpretations became trendsetters for many of his students.

  • Heinz Wunderlich at 85Th Birthday That Have Gone Off in All Directions
    Heinz Wunderlich 1 at 90 Jay Zoller ld age for most people means a Oslowing down and a loss of the abili- ties they once had. If they are among the few who live to their ninth decade, they usually live a very limited existence. If they are among the very few, often very gifted, artists who are sustained by their art and who, by force of will, work at their art, they continue to be produc- tive in their chosen fi eld. One thinks of the painter Andrew Wyeth who re- mained active in his work until he died, and was nourished by his deep roots in Pennsylvania and rural coastal Maine. As a young man, after determining what he was about, he remained true to his calling throughout his life, undeterred by differ- ent trends that swirled around him. Heinz Wunderlich has also been sus- tained by his roots, which reach back to the music of Max Reger, transmitted to him by his teacher Karl Straube. And, like Wyeth, Professor Wunderlich has re- mained true to his calling, digging deep into the music of Reger and Bach and carrying that tradition into the 21st cen- tury with his own works, despite trends Heinz Wunderlich at 85th birthday that have gone off in all directions. celebration after his Bach concert Hamburg celebrations in 2009 witnessed the destruction of the Men- On April 25, 2009, Heinz Wunderlich delssohn Memorial in front of the Ge- will turn 90.
