Composer's Note: De
profundis ad lucem (out
of the depths towards
light) opens with an
atmosphere of stillness,
out of which two main
sections emerge, one
reflecting hope and the
other struggle. Hope is
expressed with a
recurring theme that
gradually layers upon
itself, imparting a
feeling of birth. This
section suddenly gives
way to struggle,
represented with loud
brass, biting accents,
and thundering timpani
figures. Following an
extended musical
landscape, these two
sections return, only in
reverse, with struggle
resolving into hope. The
work ends in tranquillity
as it began. --N.G.

Two
Mythical Scenes for
orchestra was completed
in 1956, when Sallinen
was Aarre Merikanto's
composition student for
his second term. The work
received its premiere
performance only after a
good deal of pressure
from Prof. Merikanto's
side, and was finally
premiered in a concert by
the Sibelius Academy
Symphony Orchestra,
conducted by Jussi Jalas.
The work received opus
number 1, as it was the
first publicly performed
work by Sallinen.
The composer has told
that he was inspired by a
1947 book published by
the Finnish Literary
Society (SKS) Myytillisia
kuvia (Mythical
Scenes/Images). The
second movement of the
work, Kalmanvaen
joulukirkko (The
Christmas Service of the
Dead) is based on the
stories in which the dead
rise from their graves
early in the Christmas
Day morning to attend
their own special
ceremony led by a dead
priest. The opening
movement Kulkue
(Procession) depicts the
dead in a procession
towards the church.
In 2020 Sallinen revised
the score slightly. In
his own words with very
small changes helping the
sixty years younger and
less experienced self.
The revisions mostly
concerned nuances and
dynamics, bowings and
some bridges. The
original structure,
rhythmic and harmonic
world is still the same
as they were when young
Sallinen composed the
work in 1956.

The genesis
of Beethoven's 4th
symphony came at an
extraordinary time for
the composer not only
regarding productivity:
Thus, in 1806 he
composed, among other
things, the 4th piano
concerto, the three
Rasumovsky string
quartets op. 59, the 32
piano variations in c
minor WoO 80, as well as
the violin concerto op.
61. The first performance
of the B-flat-major
symphony occurred in
March 1807 at one of the
two noteworthy
subscription concerts
conducted by Beethoven in
the Palais Lobkowitz in
Vienna. In the course of
time, this
intellectually-stimulatin
g work- so described by
one of the reviewers of
the Allgemeine
musikalische Zeitung -
found ever-increasing
appeal. Throughout the
entire 19th century this
symphony ranked with the
best-loved and most
frequently performed
works; its popularity
spread to England where
the London Philharmonic
Society played it at
least 25 times in the
period between 1813 and
1850.Extant are only a
few drafts of the 4th
symphony. The autograph
served as the main source
for the present edition
edited by Prof. Bathia
Churgin, likewise editor
of the 3rd symphony in
the new Beethoven
Complete Edition.
Consulted as reference
sources were copies of
the score and orchestral
parts as well as the
original edition of the
parts.

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.

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

StiftungThe goal of the
Hanns Eisler Complete
Edition (HEGA) is to
present to the public all
available compositions,
writings and letters in
an appropriately
scholarly form. It takes
a historico-critical
approach and seeks to
document the history of
the works and writings by
shedding light on their
transformations, thus
identifying the various
versions as witnesses of
evolving aesthetic and
historical positions.
Eislers complete oeuvre
(only a limited number of
his works had penetrated
the publics awareness up
until the 1990s) first
became the object of an
editorial undertaking
when the Eisler -
Gesammelte Werke (EGW)
was founded by Nathan
Notowicz. It was later
placed under the
direction of Manfred
Grabs and Eberhardt
Klemm, and began issuing
its publications in 1968
through the intermediary
of the Deutscher Verlag
fur Musik in Leipzig.
However, only four
volumes of music and five
volumes of writings were
published. The Hanns
Eisler Complete Edition
pursues the work begun at
that time, although it
has had to fundamentally
revise its editorial
principles. In this
respect, the Hanns Eisler
Complete Edition can be
considered as a
completely new editorial
undertaking. It became
necessary to reconceive
the organization of the
volumes and series as
well as the editorial
guidelines in order to
adapt the standards of
historico-critical
editing generally
applicable today to the
specific and sometimes
singular circumstances of
Eislers works.The

The major
upheavals that
transformed society and
musical aesthetics during
the first half of the
20th century also
profoundly affected the
life of Hanns Eisler, as
well as his compositions
and writings. The
importance and scope of
Eislers oeuvre are reason
enough to make his works
accessible to musical
scholarship and practice
in a comprehensive
fashion. Price reduction

New
York is the city which
fascinates and inspires
Ruders. Time and again he
goes back there to work.
'Manhattan Abstraction'
(1982) subtitles - a
symphonic skyline for
large orchestra - was
conceived there. Ruders'
Brittish colleague Oliver
Knussen defines the piece
as: - a performance of an
extraordinary
Morden-Times-like
construction. It is a
sort of symphonic
sculpture, which in the
composer's own words
words propels forth from
one particular
inspiration: the New York
profile, as seen from
Liberty Island, one icy
cold January day with
it's open, clear sky and
dazzling sun light.
'Manhatten Abstraction'
appears as an amalgam of
some of the
compositorical habits
found in present pieces.
For instance, are present
here compositorical ideas
and melodic loans from
'Capriccio Pian'e Forte',
2nd String Quartet(1979),
'Four Compositions'
(1980), and 2nd Piano
Sonata(1982). The
question at hand is
mainly concerned with the
enhanced elaboration of
Ruders' use of the
classic English
change-ringing system: a
permuting method
pre-determining the order
of tone-appearances and
/or tone groups; a serial
technique in other words.
In spite of the rigidly
fixed material, Ruders
somehow manages to chisel
out a personal expression
by way of emphasising
contrasting elements
already existing within
the material itself. The
spiky, repetitive
sections form a
counterpart to a more
human violin-solo. This
dialectical tension is -
as hinted by the title -
a symphonic abstraction
of a fascinating
metropolis; the most
beautiful and the
ugliest. The subtitle: a
symphonic skyline
reflects the musical
erection of the Manhattan
profile, which under the
clear sky, materializes
into the most powerful
and compelling man-made
sculpture on earth. Thus
'Manhattan Abstraction'
is a homage to, as well
as a vision of, this
giant contraption of
concrete, glass, and
chrome.

Eino
juhani Rautavaara
(1928-2016) was one of
Finland's internationally
most successful
composers. He made his
major breakthrough with
the Symphony No. 7, Angel
of Light, in the 1990s,
but his output includes
numerous classic operas,
concertos, chamber music
and choral works.
Over his extensive
career, he progressed
from Neo-Classicism to
strict dodecaphony to
free-tonal
Neo-Romanticism,
combining modernism with
mystical romanticism in
his later works.
According to the
composer, the role of the
composer is to be
mediator, a midwife, who
helps the music become
alive on its own terms;
Listen to what the music
wants to tell you, he
told his composition
students, sense where it
wants to go.
Rautavaara rose to great
international fame with
the success of his
Symphony No. 7, Angel of
Light (1995) powered by
the prize-winning
recording (Helsinki
Philharmonic, Segerstam,
Ondine label) later the
same year. Many
high-profile
international commissions
followed, creating yet
more prize-winning
recordings. To mark
the 25th anniversary of
the work's premiere - in
its original form as the
Bloomington Symphony - by
the Bloomington Symphony
Orchestra and conductor
David Pickett, Fennica
Gehrman is publishing an
entirely new edition of
the symphony based on all
available sources,
including the composer's
manuscript and his
markings in various
printed scores. This
is a large-sized
conductor score with
extensive analysis of the
work and its genesis.

Alas! Babylon’s
Final Sunset is
another installment in my
series of works that
musically comment on the
biblical books of Daniel
and Revelation. The
principal source of
inspiration for this
works comes from the 18th
chapter of the book of
Revelation. This chapter
states that the career of
Babylon the Great is
finally coming to an end.
The music begins with a
mysterious pianissimo
tremolo accompanied by
tam-tam and bass drum.
The initial flourishes in
the oboes and English
horn serve as the
principal motive of
warning. As the music
continues, there are
varying degrees of
agitation among the
strings and woodwinds.
Throughout the work there
are rhythmic motives in
the brass, percussion,
and various woodwind
instruments that sing and
speak Babylon is Fallen
in triple meter. As the
tutti ensemble arrives at
a climax, the orchestral
texture becomes thinner
and slightly transparent.
As the music continues,
the opening motive
returns in the oboes,
however the counterpoint
produces a series of solo
laments. These passages
are intended to provide
picturesque images of
these words: And the
voice of harpers, and
musicians, and of pipers,
and trumpeters, shall be
heard no more at all in
thee; and no craftsman,
of whatsoever craft he
be, shall be found any
more in thee; and the
sound of a millstone
shall be heard no more at
all in thee; And the
light of a candle shall
shine no more at all in
thee. and the voice of
the bridegroom and of the
bride shall be heard no
more at all in thee: for
thy merchants were the
great men of the earth;
for by thy sorceries were
all nations deceived. And
in her was found the
blood of prophets, and of
saints, and of all that
were slain upon the
earth. Rev. 18:22-24 The
following passages
musically comment on the
historical career of
Babylon with a sense of
her impending
destruction. The series
of laments transforms
into the more emphatic
rhythmic motive Babylon
is Fallen. The orchestral
texture begins to become
more condense, once
again, with the initial
flourishes of, but with
notable variations.
Finally, the celesta,
harp, oboes, English
horn, and strings sing
profundities that are
finally transformed into
a minor mode tonality
that fades away with the
ringing of the tam-tam.
Babylon has finally seen
her last sunset.

Librettist: Paul Schott;
Author of Original Text:
Georges
Rodenbach.
This
masterpiece, composed by
Erich Wolfgang Korngold
when he was only 23, was
one of the great stage
successes of the 1920s
and 30s before being
removed from theatre
schedules by the National
Socialists. Rediscovered
in the 1970s, it has
enjoyed continuing
popularity ever since.
The libretto was compiled
by the composer's father,
the music critic Julius
Korngold, writing under
the pseudonym 'Paul
Schott', a combination of
the name of the
protagonist and the
publishing house. A
vivacious theatre group
comes to liven up the
gloomy city of Bruges
(here, a symbol of death)
and the widower Paul is
forced to decide between
the past and the present.
Korngold was fascinated
by this symbolic plot and
created an iridescent
orchestral score washed
in vivid colours. A
variety of operatic
devices are intermingled
as if viewed through a
kaleidoscope: opulent
melodic arias, advanced
harmonies, psychoanalytic
profundity and cinematic
transitions oscillating
between reality and dream
worlds guarantee the
continuing modernity of
this work up to the
present day.
