The 1712
Overture stands out in
P.D.Q. Bach's oeuvre for
two reasons, among
others: it is by far the
most programmatic
instrumental piece among
those by the minimeister
of Wein-am-Rhein so far
unearthed, and 2) its
discovery has led to a
revelation about the
composer's father, Johann
Sebastian Bach, that has
exploded like a bombshell
on the usually serene
musicological landscape.
The overture is based on
an anecdote told to
P.D.Q. Bach by a cousin,
Peter Ulrich. Since P.U.
Bach lived in Dudeldorf,
only a few miles down the
road from Wein-am-Rhein,
he was P.D.Q.'s closest
relative, and he was, in
fact, one of the few
members of the family who
was on speaking terms
with P.D.Q. The story,
related to P.D.Q.
(fortunately for us
posterity types) in a
letter, may be summarized
thus: The town of
Dudeldorf was founded by
two brothers, Rudi and
Dieter Dudel, early in
the 18th century. Rudi
remained mayor of the
newborn burg for the rest
of his long life, but
Dieter had a dream of
starting a musicians'
colony, an entire city
devoted to music, which
dream, he finally
decided, could be
realized only in the New
World. In 1712, he and
several other bagpipers
sailed to Boston, never
to return to Germany.
(Henceforth, Rudi became
known as der deutscher
Dudel and Dieter as the
Yankee Dudel).
Unfortunately, the head
of the Boston Musicians'
Guild had gotten wind of
Dudel's plans, and
Wilhelm Wiesel (pron.
VEE-zle), known none too
affectionately around
town as Wiesel the
Weasel, was not about to
share what few gigs there
were in colonial America
with more foreigners and
outside agitators. He and
his cronies were on hand
to meet Dudel's boat when
it pulled into Boston
Harbor; they intended to
prevent the newcomers'
disembarkation, but Dudel
and his companions
managed to escape to the
other side of the bay in
a dinghy, landing with
just enough time to rent
a carriage and horses
before hearing the sound
of The Weasel and his
men, who had had to come
around the long way. The
Germans headed West, with
the Bostonians in furious
pursuit. soon the city
had been left far behind,
and by midnight so had
the pursuers; Dieter
Dudel decided that it was
safe for him and his men
to stop and sleep until
daybreak. When they
awoke, they found that
they were in a beautiful
landscape of low,
forested mountains and
pleasant fields, warmed
by the brilliant morning
sun and serenaded by an
entrancing variety of
birds. Here, Dudel
thought, her is where I
will build my colony. The
immigrants continued down
the road at a leisurely
pace until they came upon
a little church, all by
itself in the
countryside, from which
there suddenly emanated
the sounds of a pipe
organ. At this point, the
temptation to quote from
P.U. Bach's letter to
P.D.Q. cannot be
resisted: They went
inside and, after
listening to the glorious
music for a while,
introduced themselves to
the organist. And who do
you think it was? Are you
ready for this -- it was
your old man! Hey, no
kidding -- you know, I'm
sure, that your father
was the guy to get when
it came to testing new
organs, and whoever had
that one in Massachusetts
built offered old
Sebastian a tidy sum to
go over there and check
it out. The unexpected
meeting with J.S. Bach
and his sponsors was
interrupted by the sound
of horse hooves, as the
dreaded Wiesel and his
men thundered on to the
scene. They had been
riding all night,
however, and they were no
spring chickens to start
with, and as soon as they
reached the church they
all dropped, exhausted,
to the ground. The elated
Germans rang the church
bells and offered to buy
everyone a beer at the
nearest tavern. There
they were taught, and
joined in singing, what
might be called the
national anthem of the
New World. The melody of
this pre-revolutionary
patriotic song is still
remembered (P.D.Q. Bach
quotes it, in the bass
instruments, near the end
of the overture), but is
words are now all but
forgotten: Freedom, of
thee we sing, Freedom
e'er is our goal; Death
to the English King, Long
live Rock and Ross. The
striking paucity of
biographical references
to Johann Sebastian Bah
during the year 1712 can
now be explained: he was
abroad for a significant
part of that year,
testing organs in the
British Colonies. That
this revelation has not
been accepted as fact by
the musicological
establishment is no
surprise, since it means
that a lot of books would
have to be rewritten. The
members of that
establishment haven't
even accepted the
existence of P.D.Q. Bach,
one of whose major works
the 1712 Overture
certainly is. It is also
a work that shows
Tchaikowsky up as the
shameless plagiarizer
that some of us have
always known he was. The
discovery of this awesome
opus was made possible by
a Boston Pops Centennial
Research Commission; the
first modern performance
took place at the opening
concert of the 100th
anniversary season of
that orchestra, under the
exciting but authentic
direction of John
Williams.

The Magic
Flute is perhaps one of
Mozart's most well known
operas. The beginning of
the second act is a
lovely processional march
known as March of the
Priests. The scene
depicts a solemn
procession of priests as
they enter the great
cathedral. The piece has
a very ethereal quality
and is lush and beautiful
when played by a string
orchestra. Close your
eyes and imagine yourself
at the Met, fully
engulfed in the beauty of
Mozart's lovely opera.
Jerry Brubaker's rich new
setting of this
beautiful, yet simple
piece will give players
and audiences much
enjoyment every time it
is played. This
arrangement works well as
a concert piece and could
even be used as a
processional for a
wedding. Feel the magic!

Like Hamlet
Overture, originating at
about the same time,
Tchaikovsky's 5th
symphony, composed in
1888, focuses on the
human existential
question: To be or not to
be - triumph over fate or
triumph of fate? The per
aspera ad astra
dramaturgy underlying the
symphony culminates in
triumphant certainty. If
Tchaikovsky was initially
euphoric, then severe
self-doubts befell him
after he conducted the
premiere in St.
Petersburg. These doubts
demonstrably led him to
make interpretative
changes for the Hamburg
performance in 1889,
including a cut in the
finale. Only with the
extremely positive
response to this
performance did his
doubts dispel.
Nevertheless, Tchaikovsky
himself never again
conducted the 5th
symphony. It was only
posthumously established
in the repertoire through
Arthur Nikisch's
commitment. The new
edition's textual
criticism takes into
account besides the
autograph and first
edition also the first
edition's orchestral
parts, together with the
piano arrangement
produced from the
autograph by Sergei
Taneyev. In addition to
thoroughly clarifying
dynamics and
articulation, the source
comparison also corrected
many errors and solved
problematical passages,
such as, for instance,
the trombone entry in m.
372 of the finale.
Considered, moreover, for
the first time has been
the composer's doubts
about his work and its
ambiguities, frequently
successfully suppressed
in the history of its
performance and
reception. Tchaikovsky's
conductor's copy is
unfortunately lost, hence
his alterations made for
the Hamburg performance
are not precisely known.
They have survived only
indirectly through
remarks that Willem
Mengelberg left to
posterity, for which he
could draw on
Tchaikovsky's conductor's
score and oral references
by the composer's brother
Modest. So, anyone
wishing to deal seriously
with the work's
certainties will not be
able to do so in the
future without having
also to deal with its
uncertainties.

Marche
fatale is an incautiously
daring escapade that may
annoy the fans of my
compositions more than my
earlier works, many of
which have prevailed only
after scandals at their
world premieres. My
Marche fatale has,
though, little
stylistically to do with
my previous compositional
path; it presents itself
without restraint, if not
as a regression, then
still as a recourse to
those empty phrases to
which modern civilization
still clings in its daily
utility music, whereas
music in the 20th and
21st centuries has long
since advanced to new,
unfamiliar soundscapes
and expressive
possibilities. The key
term is banality. As
creators we despise it,
we try to avoid it -
though we are not safe
from the cheap banal even
within new aesthetic
achievements.Many
composers have
incidentally accepted the
banal. Mozart wrote Ein
musikalischer Spass [A
Musical Jape], a
deliberately amateurishly
miscarried sextet.
Beethoven's Bagatellen
op. 119 were rejected by
the publisher on the
grounds that few will
believe that this minor
work is by the famous
Beethoven. Mauricio Kagel
wrote, tongue in cheek,
so to speak, Marsche, um
den Sieg zu verfehlen
[Marches for being
Unvictorious], Ligeti
wrote Hungarian Rock; in
his Circus Polka
Stravinsky quoted and
distorted the famous, all
too popular Schubert
military march, composed
at the time for piano
duet. I myself do not
know, though, whether I
ought to rank my Marche
fatale alongside these
examples: I accept the
humor in daily life, the
more so as this daily
life for some of us is
not otherwise to be
borne. In music, I
mistrust it, considering
myself all the closer to
the profounder idea of
cheerfulness having
little to do with humor.
However: Isn't a march
with its compelling claim
to a collectively martial
or festive mood absurd, a
priori? Is it even music
at all? Can one march and
at the same time listen?
Eventually, I resolved to
take the absurd seriously
- perhaps bitterly
seriously - as a
debunking emblem of our
civilization that is
standing on the brink.
The way - seemingly
unstoppable - into the
black hole of all
debilitating demons: that
can become serene. My old
request of myself and my
music-creating
surroundings is to write
a non-music, whence the
familiar concept of music
is repeatedly re-defined
anew and differently, so
that derailed here -
perhaps? - in a
treacherous way, the
concert hall becomes the
place of mind-opening
adventures instead of a
refuge in illusory
security. How could that
happen? The rest is -
thinking.(Helmut

With the
new edition of the
G-minor Symphony, a vital
work group in Mozart's
oeuvre is now complete:
the three late symphonies
K. 543, 550 and 551, now
available in Urtext
editions. As in his new
edition of the Hafner
Symphony, Henrik Wiese
uncovers in the present
Breitkopf Urtext score
three different stages in
the genesis of the
G-minor Symphony. Mozart
initially wrote the work
without clarinets (1st
stage), and then he added
the clarinets (2nd
stage). Not until a final
stage did he change the
wind instrumentation in
the Andante (3rd stage).
Mozart thus returned to
the 1st version again
after completing the 2nd
version (with clarinets).
This advances the
importance of the 1st
version without clarinets
as Fassung letzter Hand.
A compelling insight
which sheds new light on
the famous G-minor
Symphony. Both versions
are of equal value and
can now be compared with
one another, studied and,
above all, performed for
the first time ever
thanks to the new score
and parts.Another
extremly practical aspect
that should be noted: the
orchestral parts offer
solutions for all the

lays bare Mendelssohn's
Overture to A Midsummer
Night's Dream To this
day, Mendelssohns
epoch-making Overture to
A Midsummer Night's Dream
has been performed on the
basis of a more than
dubious transmission.
Neither the first edition
of the parts (1832), and
certainly not the print
of the score based on
these parts (1835) go
back directly to the
autograph of the
17-year-old composer,
which is now located in
Krakow. No wonder, since
Mendelssohn had breezily
given away his original
at an early date. The
result: during his
lifetime, versions were
published with his
authorization, even
though they were full of
unintended
inconsistencies. Yet the
autograph of 1826 is
unequivocal: it is clear,
practically free of
irregularities and
diverges considerably
from the corrupted
printed version.
Christian Martin Schmidt
comes up with
occasionally differing
musical passages, but
above all with logical
and compositionally
compelling performance
instructions, laying bare
to musical practice the
original form buried
beneath layers of
falsified material for
the first

What is
also amazing is that the
first text-critical
edition prepared by the
Czech Smetana expert
Milan Pospisil in 1999,
which had entailed an
exhaustive evaluation of
the sources and been
given a full
text-critical editorial
treatment as a Eulenburg
study score, had no
resonance of any kind
among performers since no
performance material had
been published. After 15
years, Pospisils edition
is finally being
completed in a manner
suitable for practice:
with a conducting score
and orchestral parts
which will ensure that
all future performances
are based on a musical
text that is as reliable
as can
be.
The
work depicts the course
of the river Vltava,
beginning with its first
two sources, the cold and
warm Vltava, and the
confluence of the two
streams that join to form
a single river; then the
course of the Vltava
through forests and
meadows, and through open
countryside where a
peasant wedding is being
celebrated; water-sprites
dance by the light of the
moon; on the nearby
cliffs castles, mansions
and ruins rise proudly
into the air; the Vltava
eddies in the St John's
Rapids, then flows in a
broad stream as it
continues its course
towards Prague, where the
Vysehrad appears, before
the river finally
disappears into the
distance as it flows
majestically into the
Elbe.
Vltava
(The Moldau),
Smetana's best-known and
most frequently performed
orchestral work, was
written between 19
November and 8 December
1874, at a time when
Smetana was already
completely deaf. The
world premiere took place
in Prague on 4 April
1875, but the score was
not published until
1880.

occurs in the finale, for

Mendelssohn quotes the

where it builds up to a

Classical
ReminiscencesDuring his
time as conductor of the
Detmold court orchestra,
the young Brahms was
inspired by the local
wind ensemble to compose
two serenades. Serenade
No. 2, scored for five
pairs of winds, violas,
cellos, and string basses
(leaving out the violins)
is strongly reminiscent
in sound of Mozart's wind
serenades. The expressive
Adagio is the heart of
the five-movement work.
Quite untypical of
Brahms, he acquired a
liking for the work from
the outset, still
undertaking a revision
scarcely 15 years after
the premiere of 1860;
this has now been made
available in a new
practical edition based
on the Johannes Brahms

Joachim
Raff's Fifth Symphony
Lenore op. 177, composed
in 1872, reveals the
composer as a
representative of the
middle ground between
Neo-German aesthetics and
the symphonic tradition.
It owes its name to G. A.
Burger's ballade, which
is the programmatic basis
of the final movement.
Using this literary
model, Raff oriented
himself to the Berlioz
program symphonies and
the Liszt symphonic-poem
concept, on the one hand,
but on the other, he let
the three preceding
movements follow
traditional symphonic
form. Raff conducted the
Lenore symphony's
premiere in December 1872
in a concert by the
Furstliche Hofkapelle in
Sondershausen. The
concert went to his
satisfaction, although
the audience evidently
did not know what to make
of the work: [...] and
the symphony [...] was
played before this
faintly musical party.
Essentially for the
greater glory of God and
my edification, less for
that of the said public,
which seems to have been
rather horrified by it.
His friend Hans von Bulow
had, however, a great
pleasure in hearing the
symphony the following
year in Berlin. In her
preface, the editor Iris
Eggenschwiler provides
detailed information
about the work's genesis,
documents Raff's ideas
and intentions, and
facilitates a
comprehensive orientation
within the historical
context. Breitkopf &
Hartel is now presenting
for the first time with
this symphony an
orchestral work by Raff
in a modern Urtext
edition, thus also
continuing its
collaboration with the
Joachim-Raff-Gesellschaft
.In collaboration with
the Joachim-Raff-Archiv

A rewarding
extension to the
repertoire Friedrich
Schneider, remembered in
the music world almost
entirely through his
oratorio Das Weltgericht
(The Last Judgment),
bequeathed at his death
in 1853 an oeuvre of over
1000 works, among them 23
symphonies. Breitkopf &
Hartel, whose association
with Schneider began as
early as 1805, is now
publishing for the first
time an edition of his
Symphony No. 16. The
symphony composed in 1818
is impressive proof that
outside of Vienna the
romantic symphony was
also developing then. To
this day Schneider's
extensive symphonic works
are almost completely
unknown. Inviting us to
rediscover him, the work
offers a welcome and
valuable repertoire
extension in the realm of
the early romantic
symphony.A contemporary
of Beethoven, Schneider's
soundworld is not a
million miles away from
the great man's. He is on
frisky form in his 16th
symphony. (Jeremy Pound,
