The title, Live On, by Larry Clark, is taken from Chrissie Pinney's poem about grief and loss. The piece is meant to depict the personality of Linda Mann, to whom it is dedicated. The opening is poignant and pensive, followed by a whimsical theme which alludes to happy thoughts of a life well-lived. The piece builds to a triumphant?conclusion based on an augmented version of the theme.

Live On was commissioned by Diplomat Middle School's staff, faculty and students in Cape Coral, Florida, and is dedicated to the memory of their Director of Bands, Linda Mann. Director of Orchestras, Roland Forti, championed the commissioning of this piece to honor the life of Linda after her untimely passing in February of 2017. Linda Manns impact on the field of music education was profound and wide-reaching. She was a beloved member of the staff at Diplomat Middle School, as well as the music community of Cape Coral and the state of Florida. Linda was highly respected throughout the state, serving as recent past-president of the Florida Bandmasters Association.

In discussing the type of piece the school wanted to honor Ms. Mann, they indicated the piece should depict Lindas personality - dynamic, sassy, yet thoughtful and almost mentor-like. They wanted a piece that was upbeat, yet still had moments that were thoughtful, portraying the grief that the Diplomat Middle School community has suffered from the sudden loss of such a beloved teacher.

After contemplating their thoughts, I did some research to find inspiration for the piece. This led me to poetry about grief and loss. In time, I stumbled upon a short, yet poignant poem that I felt perfectly depicted the sentiment that I wanted the piece to convey. That poem is entitled Live On by Chrissie Pinney.

Live On

Now as I live on

Without you

I hope to keep

The pieces of you

That I loved so dearly

Your mannerisms

And compassionate character

And smiles through struggle

So that you

May live on too

-Chrissie Pinney

I reached out to Ms. Pinney, and she graciously agreed to allow me to quote her powerful poem in these notes. She expressed that she was deeply touched that her work would inspire me to write a piece in honor of Linda Mann.

The piece begins with a poignant, pensive opening section. The use of the musical interval of a tritone between the first two openly voiced chords are used to represent the sadness we all feel from this type of loss. When I sat in front of my piano and started to work on this piece, my hands seemed to naturally and immediately play these first two chords, which set the process in motion of composing the piece.

After the somber opening, the piece shifts to a whimsical theme that I hope brings about happy thoughts of Linda and her personality. It was also my intent, however, to include some musical dissonance in the theme that still reflected the bittersweet loss at the same time. The piece develops into a secondary theme that is a quasi inversion of the main fast theme. This section is followed by a return of the opening material, with snippets of the fast theme intertwined, before the piece builds to a triumphant, augmented presentation of the main theme in a lush form to complete the work.

It is my hope that in some small way, this piece will bring comfort to those affected by the loss of Linda Mann, and that the music will allow her memory to Live On.

Das 3. Schumann-Symposion 1988 wurde aus doppeltem Anlass unter das Thema 'Robert Schumann in Dusseldorf' gestellt. Die 700-Jahr-Feier der Stadtwerdung Dusseldorfs gab Anlass, Leben und Wirken des bedeutendsten Komponisten, der in der Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts hier wohnte und wirkte, zu gedenken. Das Vorhaben der Schumann-Forschungsstelle, den Beginn der Gesamtausgabe mit den vernachlassigten spaten Werken zu beginnen, war zugleich auch Richtschnur fur das 3. Robert-Schumann-Fest in seiner Programmgestaltung. Das Symposion, die Arbeit an der Gesamtausgabe und das Fest waren so eng aufeinander bezogen. Die Ausstellung 'Schumann und die Dusseldorfer Malerschule' im Foyer des Tagungsortes dokumentierte bildhaft erganzend die soziale und kunstlerische Einbettung von Clara und Robert Schumann in die Dusseldorfer Gesellschaft. Zunachst erwies sich, dass durchaus trotz eines so geringen Zeitabstandes von nur drei Jahren zum vorhergehenden Schumann-Symposion wirklich neue Ergebnisse in der Schumann-Forschung vorgelegt werden konnten. Dazu bei trugen die wichtigen Quellen der Tagebucher und Haushaltsbucher, die Gerd Nauhaus 1982 und 1987 veroffentlicht hatte. Seine Anwesenheit gab Gelegenheit, die besondere Rolle des Schumann-Hauses in Zwickau fur alle Forschungsbemuhungen hervorzuheben. In den drei Vortragen und zwolf Referaten kamen zwar die beiden Schwerpunkte: Schumanns Lebens- und Wirkungsverhaltnisse in Dusseldorf, seine Begegnung mit einer besonderen rheinischen Kunstszene sowie das Spatwerk in seinem grossen Umfang voll zur Sprache, jedoch stellte sich bald heraus, dass das Verstandnis der Zeit und der Werke nur auf dem Hintergrund seiner fruheren Jahrzehnte zu begreifen und zu interpretieren ist. Mannigfache Faden verbinden Schumann mit seinen fruheren Wirkungsstatten und seinen jeweils spezifischen Schaffensprinzipien der einzelnen Gattungen.Obwohl die Generalthematik so auf eine bestimmte Zeitphase zugespitzt war, ergaben die Beitrage und Diskussionen bald, dass uber sich vernetzende Bezuge letztlich ganz allgemeine Dimensionen von Schumanns schopferischer Personlichkeit auch sein Spatwerk durchdringen und die forschenden Fragestellungen bestimmten. Naturlich behielten die Musik und ihre quellenmassige Uberlieferung ebenso wie Fragen der Auffuhrungsweise und der Rezeption ihren Stellenwert, jedoch weitete sich manche Analyse des Details aus zu den Grundfragen von Genie und Krankheit, neben dem Verhaltnis von Musik und Literatur trat jetzt verstarkt das Verhaltnis von Musik und Malerei in den Vordergrund, aber mit der nachrevolutionaren Zeit und dem Ortswechsel auch das Verhaltnis von Musik und Offentlichkeit, ja Musik und Politik. Wieder einmal zeigte sich gerade bei Schumann die romantische Einheit von Kunstler und Werk mit den geistigen und geschichtlichen Stromungen und Ereignissen seiner Welt.

Die groe konzertante Geste und das selbstvergessene, um auere Wirkungen unbekummerte Spiel, die unheimliche Nachtseite der Romantik und das hausliche Gluck im stillen Winkel - der spate Schumann bietet widerspruchliche Perspektiven und extreme, zuweilen experimentelle Antworten auf Fragen seiner Zeit und seiner kunstlerischen Existenz. Einen auffalligen Schwerpunkt im Schaffen der Jahre ab 1850 bilden Kompositionen fur Streichinstrumente - Konzerte, Kammermusik, Bearbeitungen. Der spate Schumann entdeckt die Farbe der Streicher gewissermaen neu, unbekummert um spielerische Konventionen und gattungsasthetische Erwartungen. Die Autoren dieses Bandes unternehmen eine Annaherung an dieses so faszinierende wie ratselhafte Werk, das infolge von Schumanns Erkrankung in Teilen zunachst nur zogerlich oder gar nicht veroffentlicht wurde. Thematisiert werden auerdem Fragen der Interpretation und der Schumann-Rezeption im 20. Jahrhundert.
