												  By Chau-Yee LoDramatizing the Harpsichord: The Harpsichord Music of Elliott Carter by Chau-Yee Lo “I regard my scores as scenarios, auditory scenarios, for performers to act out their instruments, dramatizing the players as individuals and partici- pants in the ensemble.”1 Elliott Carter has often stated that this is his creative standpoint, his works from solo to orchestral pieces growing from the dramatic possibilities inherent in the sounds of the instruments. In this article I will investigate how and to what extent this applies to Carter’s harp- sichord music. Carter has written two works for the harpsichord: Sonata for Flute, Oboe, Cello, and Harpsichord was completed in 1952, and Double Concerto for Harpsichord and Piano with Two Chamber Orchestras in 1961. Both commissions were initiated by harpsichordists: the first by Sylvia Marlowe (1908–81) and the Harpsichord Quartet of New York, for whom the Sonata was written, the latter by Ralph Kirkpatrick (1911–84), who had been Carter’s fellow student at Harvard. Both works encapsulate a significant development in Carter’s technique of composition, and bear evidence of his changing approach to music in the 1950s. Shortly after completing the Double Concerto Carter started writing down the interval combinations he had frequently been using. This exercise continued and became more systematic over the next two decades, and the result is now published as the Harmony Book.2 Carter came to write for the harpsichord for the first time in the Sonata. Here the harpsichord is the only soloist, the other instruments being used as a frame. In particular Carter emphasizes the wide range of tone colours available on the modern harpsichord, echoing these in the different musi- cal characters of the other instruments.

												  The Proms Listening Service Radio 3’S Tom Service Proposes Onward Sonic Explorations Inspired by the Music of Tonight’S PromThe Proms Listening Service Radio 3’s Tom Service proposes onward sonic explorations inspired by the music of tonight’s Prom BACH a kaleidoscope of new forms, groups and layers. In his Indian Brandenburg Concertos summer – composing throughout his eighties and nineties until his death at the age of 103 – Carter continued to revisit and reshape Bach’s Brandenburgs are a set of wildly innovative and dizzyingly the concerto principle, from Dialogues I and II for piano and diverse answers to the question of how musical individuals relate orchestra and his Clarinet Concerto to works that take the to larger groups. Bach doesn’t come up with anything so Brandenburg principle of a group of instruments as an ensemble of straightforward as the concerto form as it became ossified in potential soloists into the present day. That’s the effervescent energy the 19th century, in which a single soloist is set against the that drives Carter’s Boston Concerto, written for the Boston massed ranks of the orchestra. Instead, each Brandenburg Symphony Orchestra in 2002, and the Asko Concerto, composed in Concerto proposes a much more fluid solution to the question 1999–2000 for the eponymous Dutch new music group. It’s not of how a solo part or multiple solo parts weave in and out of only the example of Bach that tonight’s composers are up against: the texture of the instrumental ensemble as a whole. It’s all there are the achievements of Musgrave and Carter to contend with done with such seamless invention that it’s like looking at an too! ever-active shoal of fish in the ocean, where your attention is sometimes drawn to the dazzle and glint of individuals but then flows out to the group as a whole, in and out again, in a dance of different relationships between the players and a dance of listening on which Bach leads us in each of these concertos.

												  NORTHERN STARS MUSIC from the NORDIC and BALTIC REGIONS NAXOS • MARCO POLO • ONDINE • PROPRIUS • SWEDISH SOCIETY • DACAPO Northern StarsNORTHERN STARS MUSIC FROM THE NORDIC AND BALTIC REGIONS NAXOS • MARCO POLO • ONDINE • PROPRIUS • SWEDISH SOCIETY • DACAPO Northern Stars Often inspired by folk tradition, nature, landscape and a potent spirit of independence, the music of Scandinavia, Finland and the Baltic states is distinctive and varied, with each country’s music influenced by its neighbours, yet shaped and coloured by its individual heritage. Traveling composers such as Sweden’s Joseph Kraus introduced 18th and early 19th century classical trends from Germany and Italy, but with national identity gaining increasing importance as Romantic ideals took hold, influential and distinctive creative lines were soon established. The muscular strength of Carl Nielsen’s symphonies grew out of the Danish nationalist vigor shown by Friedrich Kuhlau and Niels Gade, extending to names such as Per Nørgård today. Gade was a teacher of Edvard Grieg, who owes his position as Norway’s leading composer, at least in part, to the country’s traditional folk music and the poignant lyricism of the Hardanger fiddle. The music of Finland is dominated by the rugged symphonies of Jean Sibelius, and his Finlandia ensured his status as an enduring national symbol. Sibelius successfully combined the lessons of Viennese romanticism with a strong Nordic character, and this pragmatic approach has generated numerous contemporary giants such as Aus Sallinen, Einojuhani Rautavaara, Kalevi Aho and Kaija Saariaho. Turbulent history in the Baltic States partially explains a conspicuous individualism amongst the region’s composers, few more so than with Arvo Pärt, whose work distils the strong Estonian vocal tradition into music of striking intensity and crystalline beauty.

												  Heckelphone / Bass Oboe RepertoireHeckelphone / Bass Oboe Repertoire by Peter Hurd; reorganized and amended by Holger Hoos, editor-in-chief since 2020 version 1.2 (21 March 2021) This collection is based on the catalogue of musical works requiring heckelphone or bass oboe instrumen- tation assembled by Peter Hurd beginning in 1998. For this new edition, the original version of the repertoire list has been edited for accuracy, completeness and consistency, and it has been extended with a number of newly discovered pieces. Some entries could not (yet) be rigorously verified for accuracy; these were included nonetheless, to provide leads for future investigation, but are marked clearly. Pieces were selected for inclusion based solely on the use of heckelphone, bass oboe or lupophone, without any attempt at assessing their artistic merit. Arrangements of pieces not originally intended for these instruments were included when there was clear evidence that they had found a significant audience. The authors gratefully acknowledge contributions by Michael Finkelman, Alain Girard, Thomas Hiniker, Robert Howe, Gunther Joppig, Georg Otto Klapproth, Mark Perchanok, Andrew Shreeves and Michael Sluman.
