I
have always been fond of
writing works for
specific people or
organizations. It has
been my good fortune
during most of my
creative career to be
asked to compose for many
extraordinary performers.
The Sonata for
Harpsichord Solo is such
a case in point: it was
written in 1982 for
Barbara Harbach, a superb
performer, close friend,
and collaborator on many
musical projects. The
Sonata was premiered on
March 2, 1984, in a
recital given by Dr.
Harbach at Nazareth
College in Rochester, New
York. During my formative
years as a composer, one
seldom heard of the
harpsichord as a modern
instrument, though while
I attended undergraduate
school at Boston
University, some of us
banded together to
construct a small
harpsichord from one of
the first do-it-yourself
kits which began to
appear in the late '40s.
It was also during this
time that I heard the
Sonatina for Violin and
Harpsichord by my teacher
Walter Piston and
consequently specified
that the accompanying
instrument for my second
violin sonata could
either be a piano or a
harpsichord. It was not
until recently, however,
that my interest in the
harpsichord as a solo
instrument for new music
was aroused. This was
because of the emergence
of so many young
virtuosi, such as Barbara
Harbach, who are
interested in the
performance of new music
besides the great
harpsichord music of the
Classical, Baroque, and
pre-Baroque eras. The
keyboard music of
Domenico Scarlatti has
always intrigued and
fascinated me. The
brevity, excitement, and
clarity of this sparkling
music is charming as well
as exhilarating. It is
this type of Baroque
sonata that inspired the
conception and form of my
harpsichord sonata. The
entire work is loosely
based on the musical
translation of Barabara
Harbach's name,
especially the conflict
of the B (B-flat) and H
(B-natural in German
notation). This secondo
rub or dissonance
especially pervades the
first movement, which is
in a modified sonata
form, pitting jagged and
tense melodic elements
against most lyrical and
smooth lines. This second
movement is a song-like
melody accompanied by
rolled chords which may
be played on the lute
stop of the instrument if
this sonata is performed
on a two-manual
harpsichord. The final
movement is an
ever-driving joyous
toccata which brings the
work to an exciting close
with a coda made up of
accelerating repeated
chords. --Samuel
Adler.

“Born
in 1929, French composer,
Pierick Houdy was a
student of Olivier
Messiaen at the Paris
Conservatoire. He led a
successful career as
director of many
institutions and choirs,
and his compositions
remain known to this day,
Sonata for Harp being no
exception. Composed in
1983, Sonata for Harp
contributes to a
substantial catalogue of
works by Houdy. The
Sonata comprises three
movements and a typical
performance lasts about
twelve minutes. The work
is modern in style and
addresses a range of
technical features.
Suitable for advanced
harpists, Houdy's Sonata
for Harp is an exciting
addition to the
contemporary Harp
repertoire and makes for
a evocative
performance.&rdquo.

Johannes
Snoer is not one of the
most remembered harpists
today, but his didactic
work was really important
and can still be useful
today. For didactic
purposes, he also
published collections of
simple pieces by great
composers transcribed for
harp. Among his
transcriptions there is
the Adagio from Sonata n.
5 in C minor, op. 10 no.
1, by Ludwig van
Beethoven, subject of
this edition. The
original musical text has
been left unchanged, only
the ornamentation has
been written in full and
the harp fingerings and
indications relating to
the movement of the
pedals have been added.
The work brings the
dedication to Mr. H.
Rutters, probably a
relative of his wife
Antoinette.

Written by
Francois Joseph Naderman
(1781-1835), Sonatinas
Progressive, Op. 92
consists of a series of
seven small sonatas. The
level of difficulty
alternates between
intermediate and advanced
as these can be played at
different speeds but
necessitates some strong
technique as well as some
pedal changes. These
Sonatinas Progressive,
Op. 92 are still
considered as some of the
most famous pieces of the
harp repertoire today.
Francois Joseph Naderman
was a classical harpist,
composer and teacher at
the Paris Conservatoire.
His vocation was
developed by growing up
as the son of a Luthier
harp maker. He also wrote
Sonatas for harp, harp
and cello, studies and
other pieces.

Martin-Pier
re Dalvimare, born in
1770, in Dreux
(Eure-et-Loir), from a
distinguished family,
learnt music as an
entertainment art, and
was obliged to make it a
resource for his
existence, after the
troubles of the
Revolution in 1789. He
had acquired a remarkable
talent for the harp; when
he arrived in Paris he
made a very good
impression. Then, man of
the world, knowledgeable
in many fields, which is
rare for a musician, he
was welcome everywhere,
and very soon came in
friendly terms with some
of the most renowned
artists and men of
letters of his times. The
marriage certificate of
the poet Legouve (15
pluviose of the year XI,
or February 1803, 12th
municipality of Paris),
shows that Dalvimare was
one of his best men and
that at the time he was
thirty-two years old. He
became harpist of the
Opera in the year VIII
(1800), and was
definitively confirmed in
the month of fructidor of
the year IX. At the time
of the institution of the
emperor Napoleon's
private music, M.
Dalvimare was appointed
as his harpist. In
September 1807 he
obtained the title of
harp master of the
empress Josephine. A
lucky change of his
fortune allowed this
artist to renounce to
practise his talent for
living, he resigned from
all of his positions on
March, 12th, 1812, and he
retired in Dreux, where
he still was living in
1837. For a peculiar
weakness, he does not
like to speak about his
artist career, which had
been entirely honourable,
and he would like to
forget his success too.
His first composition was
a symphonie concertant
for harp and horn, which
he composed with Frederic
Duvernoy, and published
in the year VII (1798);
notwithstanding, he
counted as his first opus
a collection of romances
with accompaniment of
piano or harp, which he
later published with
Pleyel.
In 1809
Dalvimare composed, for
the theatre Feydeau, a
one-act opera-comique
called The Marriage for
Imprudence. The music was
weak; the work did not
succeed, and people used
to say that the greatest
imprudence had been the
one of the authors who
had it performed.
Nevertheless, the score
of this opera was
published in Paris by
erard. (Francois-Joseph
Fetis).
