Doctoral Dissertations. 580. https://opencommons.uconn.edu/dissertations/580 ABSTRACT The Rise of the Tenor Voice in the Late Eighteenth Century: Mozart’s Opera and Concert Arias Joshua Michael May University of Connecticut, 2014 W. A. Mozart’s opera and concert arias for tenor are among the first music written specifically for this voice type as it is understood today, and they form an essential pillar of the pedagogy and repertoire for the modern tenor voice. Yet while the opera arias have received a great deal of attention from scholars of the vocal literature, the concert arias have been comparatively overlooked; they are neglected also in relation to their counterparts for soprano, about which a great deal has been written. There has been some pedagogical discussion of the tenor concert arias in relation to the correction of vocal faults, but otherwise they have received little scrutiny. This is surprising, not least because in most cases Mozart’s concert arias were composed for singers with whom he also worked in the opera house, and Mozart always paid close attention to the particular capabilities of the musicians for whom he wrote: these arias offer us unusually intimate insights into how a first-rank composer explored and shaped the potential of the newly-emerging voice type of the modern tenor voice.

  • The Adventure in the Jewish Tavern: on the Theatrical Representation of Jewish and Slavic Music in the First Half of the Nineteenth Century
    Min-Ad: Israel Studies in Musicology Online, Vol. 13, 2015-16 David J. Buch - The Adventure in the Jewish Tavern: On the Theatrical Representation of Jewish and Slavic Music in the First Half of the Nineteenth Century The Adventure in the Jewish Tavern: On the Theatrical Representation of Jewish and Slavic Music in the First Half of the Nineteenth Century DAVID J. BUCH Musicologists have only recently investigated the musical representation of Jews on the European stage. With the publication of vocal music from the period of 1788-1807 explicitly representing that of Ashkenazi Jews,1 we now have a small repertory that can serve as a point of reference. While some of this music appears to be caricature rather than an accurate portrayal of Jewish musical practices, such caricature is useful in establishing historical context and in assessing other sources that might represent unacknowledged Jewish stereotypes.2 Examining musical theater that purports to represent Jews and their music brings clarity to speculation about putative “hidden” Jewish music in both eighteenth- and nineteenth-century opera, a clarity missing from accounts of German opera from Haydn to Wagner. Although almost entirely forgotten, Petr Semenov’s one-act comic opera Приключение в жидовской корчме, или: Удача от неудачи experienced a long run in Russia, Ukraine, Poland, and German-speaking lands (1817-1856), first in its original Russian (St. Petersburg, Malyj Theater, 1817) and then in Rafael Zotov’s German translation as Das Abendtheuer in der Judenschenke oder Gewin durch Verlust (Adventure in the Jewish Tavern or Profit Through Loss [St. Petersburg, Malyj Theater 1819]).

  • Keith Jarrett: "Diese Musik Braucht Meine Hilfe Nicht
    Hubert Wißkirchen SS 1995 Hubert Wißkirchen Cäcilienstr. 2 50259 Pulheim-Stommeln Tel. 02238/2192 Im SS 1995 biete ich folgende Veranstaltung an: Studiengang Schulmusik Proseminar (zu C 3 der StO) Thema: Erlebens- und verstehensorientierte Analyseansätze im Musikunterricht Ort: Raum 13 Zeit: Dienstag 17.00 - 19.00 Uhr Nähere Inhalte: Musik als Klangrede und Strukturspiel (Barockmusik) Musik als Empfindungssprache ('galante' und 'empfindsame' Musik) Musik als Charakterdarstellung und Ideensprache (das 'organische', 'autonome' Werk der Klassik) Musik als Spiegel einer Weltsicht (Mahler: 1. Sinfonie, Tamboursg'sell) Poetische versus prosaische Musik (Romantik) Musik über Musik (Parodie, Verfremdung: Strawinsky) Methodisch wird gezeigt, wie mit interdisziplinären Mitteln (Texten, Bildern, Informationen über den Kontext) und schülerorientierten Verfahren die Bereitschaft zum aktiven Sich-Einlassen auf die Musik initiiert und erhalten werden kann. Leistung für Scheinerwerb: Klausur Beginn: Dienstag, 25. April 1 Hubert Wißkirchen SS 1995 1. Sitzung Folie aus dem ‚normalen’ Unterricht: So kann man doch den Unterricht nicht beginnen!!?? - langweilig - Schülerhorizont nicht tangiert - trockene Analyse (wie Mathematik): Themaauftritte einzeichnen, Exposition, Durchführung, Engführung: Das ist doch alles nur Struktur ohne Bedeutung. 2 Hubert Wißkirchen SS 1995 Man begegnet hier dem alten Vorbehalt gegen Analyse. Musik ist doch eine Gefühlssprache! Oder (für Jugendliche) ein körperlich stimulierendes Medium. Tatsächlich ist natürlich diese ‚normale’ Aufbereitung einer Fuge anstrengend und wenig stimulierend für Schüler. Die Belohnung für solche Mühen werden so noch nicht sichtbar. Um dieses Problem im Unterricht für die Schüler einsichtig aufzuarbeiten eignet sich Arvo Pärts „Cantus in memory of benjamin britten“ besonders gut, weil dieses Stück zeigt, wie konstruktive Konsequenz gerade die Voraussetzung für eine starke emotionale Wirkung sein kann.

    FRANZ SCHUBERT : DER EINSAME ILKER ARCAYÜREK ILKER ARCAYÜREK tenor SIMON LEPPER piano FOREWORD TRACK LISTING FRANZ SCHUBERT (1797 –1828) Schubert and the feeling of solitude have been my companions for many years. We can 1 Frühlingsglaube D686 03’13 find ourselves alone as the result of many different circumstances in life – unhappiness 2 Nachtstück D672 05’51 in love, a bereavement, or simply moving to another country. For me, however, being 3 Sehnsucht D879 02’46 alone has never meant being ‘lonely’. 4 Schäfers Klagelied D121 03’36 As in Schubert’s song Der Einsame , I try to enjoy the small things in life, and, 5 Der Musensohn D764 02’14 especially in those times when I am alone, to consciously take time out of 6 Romanze zum Drama ‘Rosamunde’ D797/3b 03’49 everyday life and reflect on my own experiences. I find that making music is 7 Der Schiffer D536 02’00 a particularly good way of occupying myself in moments of solitude. 8 Der Jüngling an der Quelle D300 01’45 9 Über Wildemann D884 02:19 A running brook, a broken heart, the bitter-sweet release of death – few 10 Abendstern D806 02’29 composers have succeeded in setting these varied images to music as Drei Gesänge des Harfners D478 transparently as Schubert did. His diverse emotional and musical world had 11 i Wer sich der Einsamkeit ergibt 04’03 me under its spell from an early age. This developed into such a thirst for 12 ii Wer nie sein Brot mit Tränen a ß 04’46 more that now I can hardly wait to sing works by Schubert that are new to 13 iii An die Türen will ich schleichen 02’21 me.
