Johannes Brahms (Born at Hamburg, May 7, 1833; died at Vienna, April 3, 1897.) Brahms was not in a hurry to write a symphony. He heeded not the wishes or demands of his friends, he was not disturbed by their impatience. As far back as 1854 Schumann wrote to Joachim: "But where is Johannes? Is he flying high or only under the flowers? Is he not yet ready to let drums and trumpets sound? He should always keep in mind the beginning of the Beethoven symphonies: he should try to make something like them. The beginning is the main thing; if only one makes a beginning, then the end comes of itself." Max Kalbeck, of Vienna, the author of a life of Brahms in 2138 pages, is of the opinion that the beginning, or rather the germ, of the Symphony in C minor is to be dated 1855. In 1854 Brahms heard in Cologne for the first time Beethoven's Ninth Symphony. It impressed him greatly, so that he resolved to write a symphony in the same tonality. That year he was living in Hanover.

He wrote to Joachim in January, 1855, from Dtisseldorf: "I have been trying my hand at a symphony during the past sum- mer, have even orchestrated the first movement, and have composed the second and third." This symphony was never completed. The work as it stood was turned into a sonata for two pianofortes. The first two movements became later the first and the second of the pianoforte concerto in D minor, and the third is the movement "Behold all flesh" in "A German Requiem." A performance of Schumann's "Manfred" also excited him when he was twenty-two. Kalbeck has much to say about the influence of these works and the tragedy in the Schumann family over Brahms as the composer of the C minor Symphony.

    Page 1 (1/31/20) Waltz in E-flat major, Op. 19 FRÉDÉRIC CHOPIN (1810-1849) Composed in 1831. Chopin’s Waltz in E-flat major, Op. 18, his first published specimen of the genre and one of his most beloved, was composed in 1831, when he was living anxiously in Vienna, almost unknown as a composer and only slightly appreciated as a pianist. In 1834, he sold it to the Parisian publisher Pleyel to finance his trip with Ferdinand Hiller to the Lower Rhineland Music Festival at Aachen, where Hiller introduced him to his long-time friend Felix Mendelssohn. The piece was dedicated upon its publication to Mlle. Laura Horsford, one of two sisters Chopin then counted among his aristocratic pupils. (Sister Emma had received the dedication of the Variations on “Je vends des scapulaires” from Hérold’s Ludovic, Op. 12 the year before.) The Waltz in E-flat follows the characteristic Viennese form of a continuous series of sixteen- measure strains filled with both new and repeated melodies that are capped by a vigorous coda. Ballade No. 1 in G minor, Op. 23 FRÉDÉRIC CHOPIN Composed 1831. In the Ballades, “Chopin reaches his full stature as the unapproachable genius of the pianoforte,” according to Arthur Hedley, “a master of rich and subtle harmony and, above all, a poet — one of those whose vision transcends the confines of nation and epoch, and whose mission it is to share with the world some of the beauty that is revealed to them alone.” Though the Ballades came to form a nicely cohesive set unified by their temporal scale, structural fluidity and supranational idiom, Chopin composed them over a period of more than a decade.

  • Christoph Eschenbach Dirigiert Mahler 6
    Eschenbach dirigiert Mahler 6 Samstag, 08.04.17 — 19.30 Uhr Lübeck, Musik- und Kongresshalle GUSTAV MAHLER Sinfonie Nr. 6 a-Moll ChristopH ESchenbAcH Dirigent „Glück flammt hoch am Rande des Grauens“ Am 20. Mai 1906 machte sich Gustav Mahler auf die Meine VI. wird Reise nach Essen, um die Uraufführung seiner Sechs­ Rätsel aufgeben, ten Sinfonie vorzubereiten – mit gemischten Gefüh­ len. Denn zum einen zweifelte er an der Leistungs­ an die sich nur fähigkeit des Essener Orchesters, das qualitativ dem eine Generation Kölner Gürzenich­Orchester, mit dem er zwei Jahre zuvor seine Fünfte erarbeitet hatte, klar unterlegen heranwagen darf, NDR ELbpHilharmoNiE war. Zum anderen hatte man aufgrund der großen die meine ersten Orchester Besetzung das Orchester der Stadt Utrecht zur Verstär­ kung holen müssen, über dessen Güte sich Mahler fünf in sich auf- zuvor bei seinem Freund Willem Mengelberg zwar genommen hat. ausführlich erkundigt hatte und beruhigt worden war. Doch würden sich beide Orchester problemlos zu Gustav Mahler im Jahr 1904 einem Klangkörper zusammenfügen lassen? Mahlers Bedenken sollten sich als unbegründet erweisen. „Sehr zufrieden von der 1. Probe!“, heißt es Gustav Mahler (1860 – 1911) in einem Brief an Alma Mahler vom 2. Mai 1906. Sinfonie Nr. 6 a­Moll „Orchester hält sich famos und klingen thut Alles, Entstehung: 1903 – 04 | Uraufführung: Essen, 27.

  • Liszt and Christus: Reactionary Romanticism
    LISZT AND CHRISTUS: REACTIONARY ROMANTICISM A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Robert Pegg May 2020 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Maurice Wright, Advisory Chair, Music Studies Dr. Michael Klein, Music Studies Dr. Paul Rardin, Choral Activities Dr. Christine Anderson, Voice and Opera, external member © Copyright 2020 by Robert Pegg All Rights Reserved € ii ABSTRACT This dissertation seeks to examine the historical context of Franz Lizt’s oratorio Christus and explore its obscurity. Chapter 1 makes note of the much greater familiarity of other choral works of the Romantic period, and observes critics’ and scholars’ recognition (or lack thereof) of Liszt’s religiosity. Chapter 2 discusses Liszt’s father Adam, his religious and musical experiences, and his influence on the young Franz. Chapter 3 explores Liszt’s early adulthood in Paris, particularly with respect to his intellectual growth. Special attention is given to François-René, vicomte de Chateaubriand and the Abbé Félicité de Lamennais, and the latter’s papal condemnation. After Chapter 4 briefly chronicles Liszt’s artistic achievements in Weimar and its ramifications for the rest of his work, Chapter 5 examines theological trends in the nineteenth century, as exemplified by David Friedrich Strauss, and the Catholic Church’s rejection of such novelties. The writings of Charles Rosen aid in decribing the possible musical ramifications of modern theology. Chapter 6 takes stock of the movements for renewal in Catholic music, especially the work of Prosper Gueranger and his fellow Benedictine monks of Solesmes, France, and of the Society of Saint Cecilia in Germany.

Ludwig was the singer and actor; Franz was his father, the Director of the Cologne Conservatoire and conductor of the Gurzenich Concerts. He was there at Diisseldorf and promised to consider Gerontius for a concert in 1902, but I cannot trace that it ever took place. We need to consider Ludwig Wullner, for he would sing Gerontius again on two further key occasions, the second Diisseldorf performance at the Lower Rhine Festival in May 1902, and then in London at Westminster Cathedral in June 1903, as well as the Liverpool premiere in March 1903.

    ARNOLD BAX AND THE POETRY OF TINTAGEL A Dissertation submitted to the College of Fine Arts of Kent State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by William B. Hannam December, 2008 HANNAM, WILLIAM B., PH.D., DECEMBER, 2008 MUSIC ARNOLD BAX AND THE POETRY OF TINTAGEL (213PP.) Director of Dissertation: Theodore J. Albrecht The latter part of the nineteenth and the early part of the twentieth centuries saw what is commonly accepted as a resurgence in music from the British Isles, but to this day, most of the actual music of this resurgence remains unknown to all but the most knowledgeable of art music aficionados. Among the composers active during this period, one of the most heralded in his day but little recognized now is Sir Arnold Bax (1883 – 1953). To the aforementioned aficionados, he is known for several substantial yet infrequently performed contributions to the symphonic repertoire, among them the tone poem Tintagel. Known in England as a composer, Bax carried on a separate life as a writer of poetry and drama in Ireland, working under the name Dermot O’Byrne. At the time of composition of the tone poem, Bax also wrote a four- stanza verse poem titled “Tintagel Castle.” Both were written for and dedicated to the pianist Harriet Cohen, with whom he was having an affair. The focus of this dissertation is an extensive look at the circumstances surrounding the composition of Tintagel, examining factors of development in Bax’s compositional style, his personal life including the affair with Harriet Cohen, and the influence of Yeats and Irish culture on Bax’s writings as Dermot O’Byrne.
