Abstract

What can music tell us--without words? Can it depict scenes, narrate stories, elucidate beliefs? And can it be an instrument through which we access the inner lives not only of musicians from the past but of ourselves, today? In Ohne Worte five scholars and performers probe these and related questions to illuminate both the experience and performance of nineteenth-century music. Drawing on a rich range of sources, they reveal the musical thought and practice of canonical composers like Berlioz, Mendelssohn, and Schumann. Their work challenges us to reconsider our musical practices and the voices manifested in them, and it encourages the creation of an art that is both historical and transcendental.

Abstract

Het requiem spreekt tot de verbeelding. Ontstaan uit de gregoriaanse dodenmis, heeft het requiem heel wat grote componisten geïnspireerd tot het schrijven van prachtige muziek. In "Dies irae" wordt aan de hand van 25 belangrijke werken een overzicht geboden van de geschiedenis van het westerse requiem. Naast bekende werken van Mozart, Verdi, Brahms, Faure en Britten komen ook de oude muziek van onder meer Orlandus Lassus en meer recente werken van componisten als Kurt Weill en Andrew Lloyd Webber aan bod. Na een toegankelijke inleiding over de opbouw en de theologische betekenis van het requiem als 'genre', wordt elk werk steeds gesitueerd in de (muziek)historische context en het oeuvre van de componist.

Abstract

Né le 19 février 1926 à Lugos (Roumanie), György Kurtág a étudié à Temesvár avec Magda Kardos (piano) et Max Eisikovits (composition), puis à l'Académie de musique de Budapest avec Pál Kadosa (piano), Leó Weiner (musique de chambre), Sándor Veress et Ferenc Farkas (composition). Contrairement à Ligeti, il est resté en Hongrie, où ses œuvres furent majoritairement créées jusque dans les années quatre-vingt ; il fit un séjour à Paris en 1957-58 (travaillant avec Darius Milhaud et Olivier Messiaen). Il a donné, à partir de 1967, des cours de musique de chambre à l'Académie Franz-Liszt de Budapest, et animé de nombreux stages. Il jouit aujourd'hui d'une réputation internationale. Auteur de grands cycles vocaux sur des textes de Bornemisza, Pilinszky, Dalos, Kafka ou Beckett, il a également composé sept volumes de pièces pianistiques pour les enfants, et toute une série d'œuvres de musique de chambre. Il n'a significativement abordé l'écriture pour orchestre qu'en 1994. Dans ce livre, on trouvera l'ensemble des textes et entretiens de Kurtág lui-même, les témoignages de la chanteuse Adrienne Csengery, de la poétesse Rimma Dalos, et du compositeur György Ligeti, profondément liés à son œuvre et à sa personnalité, ainsi que des études de István Balazs, Peter Szendy, György Kroó et Friedrich Spangemacher sur ses œuvres les plus importantes.

Abstract

With National Socialism's arrival in Germany in 1933, Jews dominated music more than virtually any other sector, making it the most important cultural front in the Nazi fight for German identity. This groundbreaking book looks at the Jewish composers and musicians banned by the Third Reich and the consequences for music throughout the rest of the twentieth century. Because Jewish musicians and composers were, by 1933, the principal conveyors of Germany's historic traditions and the ideals of German culture, the isolation, exile and persecution of Jewish musicians by the Nazis became an act of musical self-mutilation. Michael Haas looks at the actual contribution of Jewish composers in Germany and Austria before 1933, at their increasingly precarious position in Nazi Europe, their forced emigration before and during the war, their ambivalent relationships with their countries of refuge, such as Britain and the United States and their contributions within the radically changed post-war music environment.
