Lebhaft 5:57 2 From: The history of the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra Researched and Remembered by Uri Toeplitz Paul Paray joined the orchestra at the right time and immediately enjoyed tremendous success with both the Orchestra and the audience. At his first concert, he conducted Berlioz’ “Symphonie Fantastique” and “Pictures at an Exhibition” by Mussorgsky- Ravel. For the second series, he brought in the French pianist Eliane Richepin who played Ravel’s Concerto and impressed with her performances of Schumann’s 4th Symphony and the “Sorcerer’s Apprentice”, by Paul Dukas. Paray was not Jewish. In 1940, when Jewish players were forced to leave the “Concerts Colonne” in Paris, he too left. He uprooted and joined the Free French Forces (Forces Françaises Libres) only returning to Paris after its liberation in 1944. Paray’s wife came from a Jewish family in the Alsace region.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract The musical life of interwar France (1919-39) has fascinated many writers; however, the part played by women musicians has been much neglected. This thesis seeks to rectify this situation by presenting a study of the activities and reception of the musiciennes of interwar France. The thesis is divided into three parts: part one provides a contextual framework within which to situate the pursuits of women musicians by considering both their contemporary social position and the gender- specific conditions which affect the lives, careers, and reception of musiciennes. Part two focuses on conductors and composers. Jane Evrard and her Orchestre feminin de Paris are discussed within the context of the contemporaneous development of the all­ woman orchestra and rise of the first professional female conductors.
