Zu den in der Musikwissenschaft bis heute vernachlassigten Themen gehort das Phanomen der Virtuositat: sei es aufgrund eines undialektischen, wenn nicht moralinsauren Kunstbegriffs, sei es aufgrund einer einseitigen Fixierung auf musikalische Strukturen bei gleichzeitiger Vernachlassigung des Klangs, sei es vielleicht aber auch, weil es sich tatsachlich hartnackig gegen jeden wissenschaftlichen Zugriff straubt. Im Zentrum dieses Sammelbandes, dessen meiste Beitrage auf das von der Universitat der Kunste Berlin veranstaltete Symposium Virtuositat zuruckgehen, steht der Versuch, der Virtuositat in den Werken der abendlandischen Kunstmusik vom Barockzeitalter bis an die Schwelle zum 21. Jahrhundert habhaft zu werden. Voraus gehen mehrere Beitrage zur Theorie, Asthetik, Sozialgeschichte und gender critique der Virtuositat, es folgen Reflexionen zur Didaktik und Psychomotorik sowie zwei exemplarische Betrachtungen der Virtuositat in der Pop-Musik und in indischer Musik.

The advent of electronics opened up new potentials for concepts concerning musical instruments, changing long-established perspectives and revolutionizing some centuries-old traditions. Over the last decades, those instruments gained in importance in science and turned into sought-after objects of museum collections. This volume takes up current research topics and deals with the following questions: What musical and creative capabilities were opened up and in which new ways were these made accessible to artists? How did composers and musicians react to newly emerging questions of instrumentality and virtuosity? Next to those aspects,this volume especially addresses perspectives and challenges of collection related tasks concerning this group of musical instruments. New and rather ephemeral materials of industrially shaped ways of production demand customised prerequisites for long-term preservation as well as presentation in exhibitions. Klang und Begriff is a publication series commissioned by the Staatliches Institut fur Musikforschung PK, Berlin. The topics of this series are oriented towards the tonal-auditory manifestation of composed music, which is explored analytically by today's available means of music theory, organology and music technology.

Dès l’époque de Chopin, les musiciens polonais commencèrent à faire de Paris une destination de prédilection. La capitale française devint même, dans l’entre-deux-guerres, leur seconde capitale musicale, tant son effervescence cosmopolite les attirait. La création polonaise rayonna dans de nombreux domaines et les archives (presse française, programmes de concerts, correspondances) révèlent l’ampleur et l’importance de cette présence. Certains d’entre eux, tels que la pianiste et claveciniste Wanda Landowska ou la cantatrice Marya Freund, s’étaient installés avant la Grande Guerre. La scène parisienne accueillit de grands virtuoses, notamment le pianiste et compositeur Ignacy Jan Paderewski, les violonistes Paul KochaÅ„ski et BronisÅ‚aw Huberman. De jeunes talents, Feliks ÅabuÅ„ski, Piotr Perkowski, Antoni SzaÅ‚owski, Tadeusz Szeligowski et Maria Modrakowka, formèrent l’Association des jeunes musiciens polonais. Paris libéra leur énergie créatrice. Cet ouvrage explore la dimension socioculturelle de ce phénomène en dressant des portraits individuels et collectifs de musiciens qui choisirent de lier leur destin à une ville actrice à part entière de cette histoire.

The career of Muzio Clementi (1752-1832) spanned the lives of both Mozart and Beethoven and was exceptionally diverse. It encompassed performing on the keyboard, conducting, teaching, business activities and composition in the realms of keyboard, chamber and orchestral music. This book focuses on Clementi’s keyboard sonatas and aims to shed new light on their relationship with the complex cross-currents of late eighteenth-century musical style, both in England, where Clementi was active for much of his career, and the continent, which he visited periodically.The first chapter summarises Clementi’s historical reputation as it developed in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and evaluates the impact on it of the significant developments in Clementi scholarship since 2000. The aim is to stress the deficiencies of the established view of Clementi as a keyboard pedagogue and to stress the importance of liberating him as much as possible from this ingrained perception. This is attempted, in the remaining chapters, through close, analytical readings of a variety of keyboard sonatas from all stages of his career, comparing them with a range of works by Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven and other contemporaries such as Jan Ladislav Dussek (1760-1812). The comparisons are made from the perspectives of distinguishing features of Clementi’s style such as his unusually intense deployment of strict counterpoint in the later keyboard sonatas; his cultivation of irregularity in recapitulations; his use of the ‘three-key’ exposition in the middle-to-later stages of his career that seems to anticipate nineteenth-century developments, and also his assimilation of heightened virtuosity into the earlier sonatas, often in the form of cadenzas more suggestive of the keyboard concerto a genre Clementi seems, rather strangely, to have neglected. The book has been envisaged as a direct response, not only to the most recent scholarship on Clementi, but also to current approaches to eighteenth-century music in general, including the interdisciplinary work of Annette Richards.

Most of us, when confronted with the term graffiti, are likely to associate it with the rather desolate wall scrawlings all over our urban landscapes. However, this is not the whole picture: no less artists than Klee, Miro, Dubuffet, and Picasso were interestedin it (the latter painting examples himself on Parisian walls). In our time, there is the highly interesting and controversial phenomenon of Street Art, which has occasionally wittily succeeded in criticizing the commercialization of cities. At their best, street artists have been able to thwart the expectations created by omnipresent mass media and by advertising - one can find some particularly remarkable examples in metropolises such as Berlin, Paris, or New York. Though this was the initial stimulus for Graffiti, it finally branched into rather different directions: it is only very loosely, ifat all, connected to the phenomenon of Street Art (or to the visual arts). The music is not illustrative nor is it programmatic and the main idea was to compose a music which is not restricted as to time or place, and which offers strong contrasts between different modes of expression. The three movements headings give a hint of the changing modes, moods, and structures of the music. The first movement, Palimpsest,is polydimensional and many-layered; one can hear allusions to a multiplicity of styles. The second movement, Notturno urbano, forms a strong contrast to the hyperactive previous movement. It starts with distant and gradually approaching bell-like sounds, from which the whole movement's musical material is being derived. The instruments are often used in an unconventional way: the winds as well as the strings employ extended techniques, which contributes to the aloofness and the mysteriousness of the movement. The third, highly virtuosic, movement, is a kind of an 'urban passacaglia' (the name of this musical form actually derives from the Spanish 'pasar una calle', 'to walk along a street'). It consists of eight incisive chords, which are played continuously by the brass, albeit always in a different way. Two worlds collide in this movement: the brass attacks are commented upon by flitting interjections of different instruments, which are highly varied in character and length. As a whole, the musical language of Graffiti shifts between roughness and refinement, complexity and transparency. It is rich in contrast and labyrinthine, neither tonal nor atonal. Graffiti calls for great agility, virtuosity, and constant changes of perspective from the musicians; each instrument is being treated as a soloist. Graffiti was commissioned by the Los Angeles Philharmonic Association, Barbican, London; Orchestra Ensemble Kanazawa, Kunststiftung NRW and Ensemble musikFabrik. It was first performed on 26th of February 2013 by the Los Angeles Philharmonic New Music Group conducted b.

Ever since he was honored 50 years ago as a top prize-winning graduate of New England Conservatory and a Fulbright scholar at the Paris Conservatoire, flutist Robert Stallman has drawn accolades around the world as a performer and recording artist who “dazzles because of his penetrating artistry†(Sunday Times/London). Also known internationally for superior flute editions, including numerous transcriptions that have greatly expanded the repertoire, Stallman now offers flutists an appealing collection of original melodic warm-ups. With The Flutist’s Handbook, he shares his fresh approach to staying in shape and maintaining his reputation for “consummate virtuosity†(Repertoire/France).PrefaceOne morning many years ago I opened my flute case and suddenly found myself questioning the wisdom of having scales and long tones come first in my practice session. Of course, these are essential to daily practice, but I wondered if there might be a better way to begin the day—with something more melodic and engaging, something to really inspire me.The Flutist’s Handbook emerged from a stream of musical ideas I began to jot down during practice sessions after that “aha†moment. As I worked with them, I noticed a more spontaneous interest in practicing. In fact I even looked forward to starting my day this way. As a result, my work on scales, arpeggios and long tones followed with more enjoyment and focused attention.In creating many of the détaché warm-ups found in Part I, I was drawn to the musical sequences of J. S. Bach, particularly those developed in his keyboard works. Bach had discovered the most satisfying musical patterns on which to build his music, so here was a treasure trove of invigorating melodic material. I also borrowed apt détaché passages from C.P.E. Bach, Schubert, Dvořák and others.Part II includes more musical quodlibets and echos in a collection of fifteen short melodies designed to open and center the tone, while encouraging full breath support. These melodies also concentrate on developing our sostenuto, or true legato playing—the foundation of a beautiful sonority and natural vocal expression. Except for final cadence notes, these warm-ups should be practiced without vibrato, to create an even and seamless instrument, bottom to top.All of these warm-ups are to be played forte and piano in every major key, proceeding chromatically by rising half-steps. Tempo indications are given in the headings, as are optional rhythmic and articulation variants. Suggested breath marks are in parentheses.The Handbook opens with détaché warm-ups for a good reason. It is vital to begin our practice with tonguing, as a clean attack is essential to producing a beautiful tone. Also, in working on tonguing (single, double, triple and tremolando) we stimulate and strengthen the jaw muscles that support the embouchure (which must remain supple and flexible). As we fine-tune these muscles, we gain tonal center and clarity, qualities that may elude us at the beginning of our practice. Of course, we also need to wake up the air stream and deepen our breath support. Once the tongue is alive and the tone is centered, we are ready to work further on our sonority with the melodic warm-ups in Part II.This book is meant for professionals, students and amateur flutists alike. I offer it to all as a companion that invites more pleasure and vitality into our daily practice. It is my firm belief that by aligning ourselves with our love of music and its energizing patterns each day—from the very first moment we pick up the instrument—we will bring more ease and focus into our lifelong task of staying in shape. This in turn will support the heightened inspiration we want to take into rehearsals and performances. Enjoy!—Robert StallmanMarblehead, MassachusettsApril 20, 2018.

Leokadiya Kashperova (1872–1940), hitherto consigned to a footnote in musical history as Stravinsky’s piano teacher, is undergoing rediscovery. A double graduate of the St Petersburg Conservatoire, she emerged as a virtuoso pianist and composer in the romantic tradition. She was associated with some of the great musicians of her day, including Balakirev and Auer. She performed in both Germany and the UK in the 1900s, but her career petered out after 1920. The Piano Concerto (1900) is Kashperova's earliest surviving orchestral work, and it was premiered by the composer the following year in Moscow and St Petersburg, bringing her much wider recognition and paving the way for an international career. Cast in three movements and in a Romantic idiom, pianistic virtuosity is often channelled into the pianist’s left hand, which is required to negotiate widely-spaced 'extreme' arpeggios – awkwardly angular when adagio, fiendishly technical when molto allegro. Kashperova's orchestral colours are achieved by felicitous solos for the woodwind, horns and brass. Noteworthy, too, are unexpected glimpses of chamber music when, in the last movement for example, the piano combines fleetingly with solo violin and solo cello in passages. Theconcerto’s quick music (Molto allegro and Allegro con anima) admirably portrays the vivacious personality of their composer, described in 1906 as offering those around her 'an abundance of joy, excitement and fun'. The central movement, by contrast, is a tender Adagio which offers the listener a gem of musical poetry.

Written by Robert Saxton in 1988 for piano, left hand only. 'The Chacony was commissioned by the Aldeburgh Festival and first performed there in 1988 by the American pianist Leon Fleisher. In rising to the challenge of writing for left hand alone, Saxton has reduced the basic material (the underlying ground bass theme) to the simplest element: a whole tone scale. Thus, the opening section gradually reveals, via a clear indication that D major is the central tonality of the work, the scale through a series of hesitant gestures, the main body of the piece bursting out of the tensions created in the intervals of the scale, especially the tritone (which plays an important part in the melodic version throughout). As with, say, the finest variation sets or grounds of a composer like Byrd, the considerable virtuosity of the keyboard writing always stems from the musical or intellectual stimulus, and is never mere empty show. This is a virtuosic response to the challenge of the imposed limitations, beautifully written for piano and culminating in a final section in which D is once more resoundingly affirmed as the centre of the work, though, with equal resonance, the tritone has the last word. Duration c. 6mins.

Cette oeuvre en deux mouvements pour clarinette et orchestre fut commandée par Musica Reservata vof, Belgique, et est dédiée Eddy Vanoosthuyse, un bon ami et confrère du compositeur. Elle connut du succès sa première mondiale le 10 décembre 2008 Salt Lake City (Etats-Unis), interprétée par l’orchestre Utah Philharmonia sous la direction de Robert Baldwin, avec Eddy Vanoosthuyse comme soliste. Par la suite, l’oeuvre fut mise de côté pendant quelques années, surtout parce que les agendaschargés des deux protagonistes ne leur permettaient pas de trouver le temps pour un enregistrement discographique. Pour finir, l’oeuvre fut enfin enregistrée en juin 2015 Nagoya (Japon), avec le Central Aichi Symphony Orchestra, mené par l’étoilemontante vénézolane, SergioRosales. La même semaine, le 12 juin, l’oeuvre fut présentée en concert pour la première fois au Japon par les mêmes interprètes, et connut ici aussi un grand succès. Après Concerto Doppio pour deux clarinettes et orchestre cordes, composé en 2001,voici la deuxième oeuvre de concert de Jan Van der Roost qui met la clarinette en vedette.Le premier mouvement, Doloroso e Contemplativo, transmet le côté sérieux de la clarinette et, par conséquent, il n’y figure presque pas de virtuosité ou de spectacle. Au contraire, l’orchestration colorée et variée qui est entrelacée autour de lapartie solo est bien plus qu’un simple accompagnement, et prend la forme de partenairemusical, d’importance comparable au soliste. Une introduction un peu mystérieuse mène une première apogée orchestrale en passant par des cellules musicales ascendantes. Ensuite on entend l’entrée du soliste, d’abord par des idées musicales plusfragmentaires, puis par des lignes mélodiques plus longues. L’orchestre entre en dialogue avec le soliste, et son instrumentation délicate et colorée crée un parfait encadrement musical. Vers la fin, l’atmosphère du début est réaffirmée, et lesoliste finit par la même note par laquelle il avait commencé.Le deuxième mouvement, Giocoso e Con Bravura, est une toute autre histoire : ici, le côté virtuose, et parfois presqu’acrobatique, de la clarinette est exploré. Des cascades imposantes et continuelles de notes demandent une dextérité exceptionnelleau soliste, ce qui, un certain moment, et « récompensé » par l’orchestre, par un clin d’oeil au « Hallelujah » de Handel vraiment mérité après ces feux d’artifice ! De temps en temps, l’instrument solo présente une phrase humoristique : laclarinette ne peut pas que chanter, briller et pleurer, mais aussi rire et plaisanter. Plusieurs passages sont presque caricaturaux ! La palette variée de cet instrument magnifique est démontrée parfaitement, parfois avec un brin d’humour oud’ironie. En effet, les deux mouvements contrastants de ce concerto démontrent les différentes facettes de l’instrument qui s’est établi sur la scène de musique classique ainsi que la musique légère (quel nom peu prometteur !). Dans le deuxièmemouvement, rapide pour la plupart du temps, l’orchestre est nouveau traité de manière créative et variée, offrant une palette généreuse de couleurs : sans enlever l’attention de la partie solo difficile, on peut dire que l’orchestre n’est pas qu’ l’arrière-plan, mais saisit l’occasion de briller en même temps. Pourtant, les dernières notes sont accordées la clarinette : après un tuttiorchestral énergique, le soliste conclut l’oeuvre par trois notes courtes de pianissimo comme si, de façon subtile, il voulait avoir le dernier mot. Après les nombreuses notes jouées par le clarinettiste, cette conclusion modeste estune fin surprenante d’une oeuvre au style plutôt traditionnel, qui démontre clairement la passion du compositeur pour cette merveilleuse combinaison instrumentale.br> Un merci particulier Peter Knockaert pour cette réduction pour piano duClarinet Concerto, qui fut créée pour le 4th International Clarinet Competition Ghent en 2017.

The Concertino IV for oboe and string orchestra was composed in 1982-83 and dedicated to the renowned Swiss oboist Jean-Paul Goy. Its three short movements, following the traditional tempo order, mirror Farkas's attraction to Classical order and harmony. The musical language is modern and personal, however, and allows the soloist to exhibit his virtuosity.

Two Shakespeare Songs were written in 1989-1990. Cry, Cock-a-Doodle-Doo was written first, and is scored for Soprano Voice and Piano. It takes its text from a song by Ariel in The Tempest. The Witches' Song is for solo Soprano, with the text coming from Macbeth. Both are dramatic works which allow the performer to showcase her virtuosity; either would be a perfect audition piece or both could be combined as complementary items on a recital programme.
Alison Bauld (b. 1944) is an Australian-born composer and writer who lives and works in London. Her compositions are distinguished by their dramaticstructure, partly inspired by musical theatre. She has also written a three-volume tutor for keyboard and composition.

Blind Lemon Jefferson was a trail blazer, both as a singer and guitarist, but also as a commercial phenomenon, for he was the first blues musician to establish the tremendous appeal that blues, as played and sung by rural African American folk, had for the record-buying public. It is no exaggeration to say that the sales of Lemon’s records paved the way for a host of other solo rural blues musicians to record in his wake and made the record companies more willing to give other musicians a chance, in the hopes of achieving similar success. Lemon’s record sales weren’t what made him a great musician, though - that could only be attributed to his startlingly virtuosic guitar - playing and soulful singing, developed over years of busking, building on his natural gifts with a great deal of practice and work. In the Guitar of Blind Lemon Jefferson author John Miller presents transcriptions, in standard notation and tablature, of 22 of Lemon’s greatest performances, with an additional essay examining Lemon’s senses of time and phrasing and his picking techniques. Also included is a download link to all the original recordings. To present a picture of Lemon the man, noted blues researchers Alan Governar and Kip Lornell have contributed an essay focusing on Lemon’s early life, the origins of his music, and his time spent in a musical partnership with Lead Belly. Links are provided to downloadable performances of the songs in the book from which the transcriptions were made, so that you can have Lemon’s sound in your head as you learn to play his songs.Blind Lemon Jefferson was remarkable, even in a style that abounded in great musicians, and some measure of his influence can be seen in the fact that musicians recorded in the 1960s, more than thirty years after his death, were still covering his songs and stealing guitar licks from him. The Guitar of Blind Lemon Jefferson gives you the resources needed to learn what was so special about Lemon’s music, and to experience his musical excellence from inside the music itself.Titles include: One Dime Blues, Got The Blues, Dry Southern Blues, Big Night Blues, Rabbit Foot Blues, Shuckin' Sugar Blues, Where Shall I Be, Wartime Blues, Black Horse Blues, Prison Cell Blues, Piney Woods Money Mama, See That My Grave Is Kept Clean, He Arose From The Dead, Beggin' Back, Broke And Hungry, Bad Luck Blues, Matchbox Blues, Lemon's Worried Blues, That Crawlin' Baby Blues, Easy Rider Blues, Stocking Feet Blues and Right of Way BluesLevel 2/3 • 160 pages • Direct download link to audio files.Â
