  • VI. Meanwhile Back at the Ranch
    VI. Meanwhile, Back at the Ranch… Classical music was in a confused and confusing state of flux during the Jazz Age and the Swing Era. The first crack in its façade came in 1860, when Richard Wagner’s opera Tris- tan und Isolde first explored atonal harmonies and unusual chord positions to create a sound world that was uncertain and, to many listeners, difficult to grasp, but the first wave of com- posers influenced by this aesthetic didn’t appear until the 1890s. The earliest and most famous of these were Richard Strauss, whose tone poems Death and Transfiguration, Also Sprach Zarathustra, Till Eulenspiegel and Don Juan opened up a new sound world to thousands of listeners, but concurrent with Strauss were the even more complex scores of Gustav Mahler and Claude Debussy, who fused Wagnerian harmony onto new melodic forms that were even more complex than Strauss’. Debussy, with his slightly more congenial melodic structure and transparent orchestration, was moderately accepted by the greater body of classical listeners, yet when Toscanini premiered his opera Pelléas et Mélisande at La Scala in 1904 it created a riot almost as vociferous as that which greeted Stravinsky’s ballet Le Sacre du Printemps in Paris seven years later. Mahler’s music, with its very complex and (to contemporary listeners) confusing structures, was rejected not only by classical audiences but also by most musicians and critics until 1910, when his Eighth Symphony was premiered to an enthusiastic audience, but even after that point most conductors wouldn’t touch his music with the exception of Wil- lem Mengelberg and Mahler’s protégés, Otto Klemperer, Bruno Walter and Oskar Fried.

  • Biography: 850 Words)
    Sara Davis Buechner (long biography: 850 words) Sara Davis Buechner is one of the leading concert pianists of our time. She has been praised worldwide as a musician of “intelligence, integrity and all- encompassing technical prowess” (New York Times); lauded for her “fascinating and astounding virtuosity” (Philippine Star), and her “thoughtful artistry in the full service of music” (Washington Post); and celebrated for her performances which are “never less than 100% committed and breathtaking” (Pianoforte Magazine, London). Japan’s InTune magazine says: “When it comes to clarity, flawless tempo selection, phrasing and precise control of timbre, Buechner has no superior.” In her twenties, Ms. Buechner was the winner of a bouquet of prizes at the world’s première piano competitions -- Queen Elisabeth of Belgium, Leeds, Salzburg, Sydney and Vienna. She won the Gold Medal at the 1984 Gina Bachauer International Piano Competition, and was a Bronze Medalist of the 1986 Tschaikowsky International Piano Competition in Moscow. With an active repertoire of more than 100 piano concertos ranging from A (Albeníz) to Z (Zimbalist) -- one of the largest of any concert pianist today -- she has appeared as soloist with many of the world’s prominent orchestras: New York, Philadelphia, Cleveland, Saint Louis, San Francisco, Montréal, Edmonton, Vancouver, Victoria, Honolulu, Qingdao and Tokyo; the CBC Radio Orchestra, Japan Philharmonic, City of Birmingham (U.K.) Symphony Orchestra, BBC Philharmonic, Moscow Radio Symphony, Kuopio (Finland) Philharmonic, Slovak Philharmonic and the Orquesta Sinfónica de Castilla y León (Spain). Audiences throughout North America have applauded Ms. Buechner’s recitals in venues such as Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, Kennedy Center and the Hollywood Bowl; and she enjoys wide success throughout Asia where she tours annually.

LaBudde Department of Special Collections NOT TO BE USED FOR PUBLICATION TABLE OF CONTENTS Biographical Sketch …………………………………………………………………… 2 Scope And Content …………………………………………………………………… 4 Container List …………………………………………………………………… 5 MS280-Dana Suesse Collection 1 University of Missouri-Kansas City Dr. Kenneth J. LaBudde Department of Special Collections NOT TO BE USED FOR PUBLICATION BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Before the age of six, Suesse studied piano and organ, and appeared in midwest vaudeville and concert stages as a pianist and dancer. Even as a child she added her own compositions to her concerts and captivated audiences with improvisations. Suesse and her mother moved to New York City in December 1926. They became active in a myriad of cultural events, and were indelibly enamored of Manhattan. Unable to sell her salon music, she experimented in the medium known as “jazz” and succeeded in composing popular songs and short instrumentals in the modern manner. In a few years she was able to comfortably support herself and her family as composer of popular tunes as well as larger works, hence the nickname “girl Gershwin” (The New Yorker, December 16, 1933). Suesse had enormous success with songs such as Have You Forgotten, Ho Hum, My Silent Love and You Oughta Be in Pictures. Throughout the 1930s she performed her compositions in the most important entertainment venues of the east coast, including Radio City Music Hall, Madison Square Garden, the Metropolitan Opera House, Brooklyn Academy of Music, Boston Symphony Hall and network radio. Her works were conducted by Ferde Grofé, Arthur Fiedler, Erno Rapée, Nathaniel Shilkret, Alfred Wallenstein, Eugene Goossens, Josef Krips and most importantly, Paul Whiteman.

  • Dinner and Dance Music in the 1920S & 30S Popular Tunes Performed by the Era’S Top Pianists on the Ampico Reproducing Piano
    (LYRCD 6017) Lyrichord Presents Dinner and Dance Music in the 1920s & 30s Popular Tunes Performed by the Era’s Top Pianists on the Ampico Reproducing Piano Performed by: J. Milton Delcamp Henry Lange Adam Carroll Victor Arden & Adam Carroll Paul Rickenbach Murial Pollock Ferde Grofe Frank Milne Victor Lane (Adam Carroll) & Zez Confrey Edgar Fairchild Ampico, which stood for American Piano Company, was one of the leading manufacturers of reproducing pianos in the early 20th century. Numerous musical luminaries, including composers Sergei Rachmaninoff and Fritz Kreisler and legendary pianists Arthur Rubinstein and Artur Schnabel, recorded for this musical marvel. Emil Welte patented the first true reproducing piano that used a perforated paper roll in 1883. Early interest in the Welte-Mignon reproducing piano, combined with the longstanding popularity of standard player pianos, led several firms to take note. Ampico bought the invention and hired engineer Charles Fuller Stoddard, who had patented his 1 own reproducing piano design in 1908. When he joined Ampico, the company began manufacturing reproducing instruments as well as an add-on reproducing roll-playing mechanism capable of retrofitting some standard pianos. There is a fundamental difference between the player piano and the reproducing piano. Although both use perforated paper rolls to convey the notes and tempo of the piece being played, the reproducing piano’s rolls also contain all of the expressive dynamics. This means that the roll plays the exact performance recorded by the pianist. A piano capable of reproducing an existing performance on a paper roll soon came to be the high- end, technological/musical device that any affluent music lover wanted in his or her parlor.

My Ohio visits with my sister, Pat, and my brother, Mike, and their families were filled with days of research, writing, and editing. They understood, and have continuously nurtured and cheered me on. My friends (and I wish I could name them all) have listened to, consoled, and encouraged me through many challenging moments, and celebrated with me in the happiest ones. My thesis committee generously provided the guidance I needed to see this project through. My patient and compassionate advisor, Dr. Kate McQuiston, spent countless hours wading through drafts, and consulting in person. Through her wisdom and writing expertise I was able to achieve far better results than I could have accomplished on my own. Dr. Abigail Fine provided perspectives, from the initial proposal through the final product, which changed the nature of my thesis, and greatly aided my writing process in general. In addition to his assistance with this project, Professor Laurence Paxton has guided me through two vocal performance degrees, and, as department chairperson, constantly looked after me during my thirteen years of learning.
