Dans la collection Mnemosis, Anne Fuzeau Classique presente le premier volume d'une serie d'ouvrages consacres aux instruments de musique. Chaque volume traitera de tous les aspects d'un instrument des origines a nos jours : histoire, facture, pedagogie, repertoire, interpretes, role dans l'orchestre et dans la musique de chambre. . . Le plan d'ensemble etant toujours chronologique. C'est donc le compagnon indispensable de tous les instrumentistes professionnels ou amateurs, historiens, musicologues. Ce premier ouvrage, consacre a l'alto, est l'oeuvre de Frederic Laine, brillant pedagogue, interprete et historien de cet instrument. Cet ouvrage presente, en une soixantaine de chapitres, un parcours chronologique de l'alto, des origines au XXe siecle. L'histoire de l'alto est singuliere comme l'est le parcours de cet instrument trop proche du violon, et qui pour cette raison a ete tardivement considere comme une specialite. Tout violoniste peut jouer facilement de l'alto, sans etudes particulieres, pense-t-on jusqu'a l'oree du XXe siecle. Ainsi, il parait inutile de s'y consacrer exclusivement et il est souvent considere au mieux comme un instrument d'appoint. Son histoire est donc ecrite par des violonistes qui le servent au gre des occasions, parfois avec enthousiasme, souvent sans grande conviction. Longtemps voue au second role, il va pourtant entamer, en particulier a partir du derniers tiers du XVIIIe siecle, une veritable quete d'identite qui va lui permettre peu a peu de s'echapper de la tutelle violonistique. Ainsi, grace a ceux qui ont percu la richesse de son timbre et de son potentiel (Bach, Mozart, Berlioz, Wagner, Richard Strauss. . . ), aux interpretes qui ont servi sa cause (Rolla, Urhan, Tertis, Hindemith, Vieux, Primrose. . . ), l'alto est aujourd'hui un instrument reconnu, desormais servi par une brillante generation d'interpretes. Cet ouvrage traite les differentes facettes de l'histoire de l'alto (facture, repertoire, interpretes, pedagogie). Il consacre notamment une partie importante au groupe (orchestre et musique de chambre), element essentiel de l'evolution de l'alto et du role musical de l'altiste. Il est complete par un chapitre anatomie de l'instrument (figures et glossaire des termes de lutherie) ainsi que par une importante bibliographie, des illustrations et de nombreux exemples musicaux. L'auteur: Frederic Laine. Apres des etudes d'alto au CNSM de Lyon et d'histoire de la musique au CNSM de Paris, Frederic Laine mene une triple activite d'altiste, d'enseignant et de musicologue. Docteur en musicologie de l'universite de Tours, il a publie en 2002 corpus pedagogique pour l'alto chez Mardaga, et a contribue a plusieurs ouvrages edites chez Fayard, Buchet-Chastel, Symetrie ou par la Cite de la Musique et les Presses universitaires de France. Altiste du trio Cappa, auteur de nombreuses publications pedagogiques (dont une ecole de l'alto en six volumes), il enseigne l'alto et la musique de chambre dans les conservatoires du centre et du XIIIe arrondissement de Paris et au Cefedem de Rueil-Malmaison.

Von der Existenz der sieben verschollenen Klaviersonaten Hob. XVI: 2a-e und g-h wissen wir lediglich durch die Eintragungen in den sogenannten Entwurf-Katalog, dessen Hauptteil Ende 1765 entstand. Haydn führte den Katalog bis 1777 fort, indem er von Zeit zu Zeit die jeweils neu komponierten Werke ergänzte. Entstanden sind die Sonaten vermutlich in der Zeit zwischen 1766 und 1772. Die Tatsache, dass die Sonaten verschollen sind, wird häufig mit dem Brand, dem Haydns Haus in Eisenstadt im Jahr 1768 zum Opfer fiel, in Verbindung gebracht. Der Zeitraum 1766 bis 1772 deckt sich ziemlich genau mit der häufig, jedoch nur unzureichend charakterisierend Sturm und Drang-Zeit genannten Schaffensphase des Komponisten, die den Höhepunkt einer Phase intensiven Experimentierens und Suchens nach neuen Wegen auf fast allen für Haydn besonders bedeutsamen Gebieten der Instrumentalmusik, der Symphonie, dem Streichquartett und der Klaviersonate, bildet. Da die Eintragungen im Entwurf-Katalog lediglich die ersten zwei bis vier Takte der je ersten Sätze der Sonaten wiedergeben, musste der Verfasser nicht nur den restlichen Verlauf der Eröffnungssätze weitgehend selbst erdichten, er war auch bei der Gesamtanlage der Sonaten (Anzahl und musikalischer Inhalt der übrigen Sätze) insofern auf sich allein gestellt, als der Entwurf-Katalog hierüber keine Auskunft gibt. Als stilistische Vorbilder dienten naturgemäß die im genannten Zeitraum komponierten und erhaltenen Sonaten. Darüber hinaus hat der Verfasser versucht, eine möglichst große Bandbreite der verschiedenen Formen, die in Haydns Musik dieses Zeitraums zu finden sind, abzubilden. Ebenso differenziert und zur Nachahmung herausfordernd ist der Abwechslungsreichtum der Satztechniken, die Haydn verwendet. Dem Vorbild Haydns folgend sind vor allem die dynamischen Angaben auf ein Minimum reduziert und sollen bewusst Raum zur eigenen fantasievollen Interpretation lassen. (Thomas Enselein).

In his polonaises Chopin takes on the tradition of a genre recently endowed with the function of national dance. Three childhood polonaises constitute a replica of the model of the functional dance, while each of the later works of this genre has its own character: lyric, dramatic or heroic. Tied into the interpretations were subjects such as the struggle for freedom, the knightly and insurgent traditions and sometimes they came to have a symbolic function in Polish history. These works were edited by by I. J. Paderewski, L. Bronarski and J. Turczy ski.

An Advanced Orchestral Conducting Workshop. Composed by David Itkin. Music Education. 62 pages. GIA Publications #10605. Published by GIA Publications (GI.G-10605).

ISBN 9781622776160.

This advanced orchestral conducting resource features concise discussions of advanced technical and interpretive issues for 44 major orchestral works that all conductors will perform during their careers. The brief discussions that precede each score cover the full range of issues encountered in real conducting situations, and the accompanying online videos show Maestro Itkin demonstrating the techniques for each excerpt. All music examples have been faithfully reproduced from original scores, and Maestro Itkin has also arranged each excerpt for string quintet, ideal for the conducting class setting. With nearly a thousand performances to his credit, acclaimed conductor David Itkin shares the knowledge he has acquired over his decades in the profession. The Conductor’ s Craft is for both up-and-coming conductors and seasoned professionals alike, equally beneficial for personal study or for use in a classroom or ensemble setting.   This volume is a real breakthrough aid for anyone studying or teaching conducting at any level. Written by David Itkin, a most distinguished and experienced conductor and teacher, it concentrates on all the vital techniques in the teaching of the craft. The accompanying video recordings also make this volume unique. This addition to the material for teaching conducting is truly revolutionary, and the selection of examples gets successfully to the point of each subject discussed. —Samuel Adler     Composer, conductor, author     Professor Emeritus, The Juilliard School, Eastman School of Music The Conductor’ s Craft outlines a detailed plan and method for executing conductor training in advanced conducting studios. Itkin’s book is also an excellent reference for any teacher who instructs advanced students in a collegiate orchestral conducting program, as well as for up-and-coming professionals who are studying for a career in the field. Perhaps most important, an individual conductor can manage their own self-study with Maestro Itkin’s clear statements and explanations of the technical issues presented with each excerpt. This book gives individual conductor’ s freedom to explore choices and alternatives to fix tricky passages in the provided musical examples. I love the book and will be using it in my studio. —Julius P. Williams     Artistic director and conductor, Berklee Contemporary Symphony Orchestra     President of the International Conductors Guild How refreshing to review a conducting book that deals with specificity of gesture as it relates to the music rather than mere concepts. Bravo to Maestro David Itkin for holding the aspiring conductor to task on issues of score study, execution, and style! —Mark Gibson     Director of Orchestral Studies, College-Conservatory of Music, University of Cincinnati     Author of The Beat Stops Here.
