duction Gustave Vogt's
Musical Paris Gustave
Vogt (1781-1870) was born
into the Age of
Enlightenment, at the
apex of the
Enlightenment's outreach.
During his lifetime he
would observe its effect
on the world. Over the
course of his life he
lived through many
changes in musical style.
When he was born,
composers such as Mozart
and Haydn were still
writing masterworks
revered today, and
eighty-nine years later,
as he departed the world,
the new realm of
Romanticism was beginning
to emerge with Mahler,
Richard Strauss and
Debussy, who were soon to
make their respective
marks on the musical
world. Vogt himself left
a huge mark on the
musical world, with
critics referring to him
as the grandfather of the
modern oboe and the
premier oboist of Europe.
Through his eighty-nine
years, Vogt would live
through what was perhaps
the most turbulent period
of French history. He
witnessed the French
Revolution of 1789,
followed by the many
newly established
governments, only to die
just months before the
establishment of the
Third Republic in 1870,
which would be the
longest lasting
government since the
beginning of the
revolution. He also
witnessed the
transformation of the
French musical world from
one in which opera
reigned supreme, to one
in which virtuosi,
chamber music, and
symphonic music ruled.
Additionally, he
experienced the
development of the oboe
right before his eyes.
When he began playing in
the late eighteenth
century, the standard
oboe had two keys (E and
Eb) and at the time of
his death in 1870, the
System Six Triebert oboe
(the instrument adopted
by Conservatoire
professor, Georges
Gillet, in 1882) was only
five years from being
developed. Vogt was born
March 18, 1781 in the
ancient town of
Strasbourg, part of the
Alsace region along the
German border. At the
time of his birth,
Strasbourg had been
annexed by Louis XIV, and
while heavily influenced
by Germanic culture, had
been loosely governed by
the French for a hundred
years. Although it is
unclear when Vogt began
studying the oboe and
when his family made its
move to the French
capital, the Vogts may
have fled Strasbourg in
1792 after much of the
city was destroyed during
the French Revolution. He
was without question
living in Paris by 1798,
as he enrolled on June 8
at the newly established
Conservatoire national de
Musique to study oboe
with the school's first
oboe professor,
Alexandre-Antoine
Sallantin (1775-1830).
Vogt's relationship with
the Conservatoire would
span over half a century,
moving seamlessly from
the role of student to
professor. In 1799, just
a year after enrolling,
he was awarded the
premier prix, becoming
the fourth oboist to
achieve this award. By
1802 he had been
appointed repetiteur,
which involved teaching
the younger students and
filling in for Sallantin
in exchange for a free
education. He maintained
this rank until 1809,
when he was promoted to
professor adjoint and
finally to professor
titulaire in 1816 when
Sallantin retired. This
was a position he held
for thirty-seven years,
retiring in 1853, making
him the longest serving
oboe professor in the
school's history. During
his tenure, he became the
most influential oboist
in France, teaching
eighty-nine students,
plus sixteen he taught
while he was professor
adjoint and professor
titulaire. Many of these
students went on to be
famous in their own
right, such as Henri Brod
(1799-1839), Apollon
Marie-Rose Barret
(1804-1879), Charles
Triebert (1810-1867),
Stanislas Verroust
(1814-1863), and Charles
Colin (1832-1881). His
influence stretches from
French to American oboe
playing in a direct line
from Charles Colin to
Georges Gillet
(1854-1920), and then to
Marcel Tabuteau
(1887-1966), the oboist
Americans lovingly
describe as the father of
American oboe playing.
Opera was an important
part of Vogt's life. His
first performing position
was with the
Theatre-Montansier while
he was still studying at
the Conservatoire.
Shortly after, he moved
to the Ambigu-Comique
and, in 1801 was
appointed as first oboist
with the Theatre-Italien
in Paris. He had been in
this position for only a
year, when he began
playing first oboe at the
Opera-Comique. He
remained there until
1814, when he succeeded
his teacher,
Alexandre-Antoine
Sallantin, as soloist
with the Paris Opera, the
top orchestra in Paris at
the time. He played with
the Paris Opera until
1834, all the while
bringing in his current
and past students to fill
out the section. In this
position, he began to
make a name for himself;
so much so that specific
performances were
immortalized in memoirs
and letters. One comes
from a young Hector
Berlioz (1803-1865) after
having just arrived in
Paris in 1822 and
attended the Paris
Opera's performance of
Mehul's Stratonice and
Persuis' ballet Nina. It
was in response to the
song Quand le bien-amie
reviendra that Berlioz
wrote: I find it
difficult to believe that
that song as sung by her
could ever have made as
true and touching an
effect as the combination
of Vogt's instrument...
Shortly after this,
Berlioz gave up studying
medicine and focused on
music. Vogt frequently
made solo and chamber
appearances throughout
Europe. His busiest
period of solo work was
during the 1820s. In 1825
and 1828 he went to
London to perform as a
soloist with the London
Philharmonic Society.
Vogt also traveled to
Northern France in 1826
for concerts, and then in
1830 traveled to Munich
and Stuttgart, visiting
his hometown of
Strasbourg on the way.
While on tour, Vogt
performed Luigi
Cherubini's (1760-1842)
Ave Maria, with soprano
Anna (Nanette) Schechner
(1806-1860), and a
Concertino, presumably
written by himself. As a
virtuoso performer in
pursuit of repertoire to
play, Vogt found himself
writing much of his own
music. His catalog
includes chamber music,
variation sets, vocal
music, concerted works,
religious music, wind
band arrangements, and
pedagogical material. He
most frequently performed
his variation sets, which
were largely based on
themes from popular
operas he had, presumably
played while he was at
the Opera. He made his
final tour in 1839,
traveling to Tours and
Bordeaux. During this
tour he appeared with the
singer Caroline Naldi,
Countess de Sparre, and
the violinist Joseph
Artot (1815-1845). This
ended his active career
as a soloist. His
performance was described
in the Revue et gazette
musicale de Paris as
having lost none of his
superiority over the
oboe.... It's always the
same grace, the same
sweetness. We made a trip
to Switzerland, just by
closing your eyes and
listening to Vogt's oboe.
Vogt was also active
performing in Paris as a
chamber and orchestral
musician. He was one of
the founding members of
the Societe des Concerts
du Conservatoire, a group
established in 1828 by
violinist and conductor
Francois-Antoine Habeneck
(1781-1849). The group
featured faculty and
students performing
alongside each other and
works such as Beethoven
symphonies, which had
never been heard in
France. He also premiered
the groundbreaking
woodwind quintets of
Antonin Reicha
(1770-1836). After his
retirement from the Opera
in 1834 and from the
Societe des Concerts du
Conservatoire in 1842,
Vogt began to slow down.
His final known
performance was of
Cherubini's Ave Maria on
English horn with tenor
Alexis Dupont (1796-1874)
in 1843. He then began to
reflect on his life and
the people he had known.
When he reached his 60s,
he began gathering
entries for his Musical
Album of Autographs.
Autograph Albums Vogt's
Musical Album of
Autographs is part of a
larger practice of
keeping autograph albums,
also commonly known as
Stammbuch or Album
Amicorum (meaning book of
friendship or friendship
book), which date back to
the time of the
Reformation and the
University of Wittenberg.
It was during the
mid-sixteenth century
that students at the
University of Wittenberg
began passing around
bibles for their fellow
students and professors
to sign, leaving messages
to remember them by as
they moved on to the next
part of their lives. The
things people wrote were
mottos, quotes, and even
drawings of their family
coat of arms or some
other scene that meant
something to the owner.
These albums became the
way these young students
remembered their school
family once they had
moved on to another
school or town. It was
also common for the
entrants to comment on
other entries and for the
owner to amend entries
when they learned of
important life details
such as marriage or
death. As the practice
continued, bibles were
set aside for emblem
books, which was a
popular book genre that
featured allegorical
illustrations (emblems)
in a tripartite form:
image, motto, epigram.
The first emblem book
used for autographs was
published in 1531 by
Andrea Alciato
(1492-1550), a collection
of 212 Latin emblem
poems. In 1558, the first
book conceived for the
purpose of the album
amicorum was published by
Lyon de Tournes
(1504-1564) called the
Thesaurus Amicorum. These
books continued to
evolve, and spread to
wider circles away from
universities. Albums
could be found being kept
by noblemen, physicians,
lawyers, teachers,
painters, musicians, and
artisans. The albums
eventually became more
specialized, leading to
Musical Autograph Albums
(or Notestammbucher).
Before this
specialization, musicians
contributed in one form
or another, but our
knowledge of them in
these albums is mostly
limited to individual
people or events. Some
would simply sign their
name while others would
insert a fragment of
music, usually a canon
(titled fuga) with text
in Latin. Canons were
popular because they
displayed the
craftsmanship of the
composer in a limited
space. Composers
well-known today,
including J. S. Bach,
Telemann, Mozart,
Beethoven, Dowland, and
Brahms, all participated
in the practice, with
Beethoven being the first
to indicate an interest
in creating an album only
of music. This interest
came around 1815. In an
1845 letter from Johann
Friedrich Naue to
Heinrich Carl
Breidenstein, Naue
recalled an 1813 visit
with Beethoven, who
presented a book
suggesting Naue to
collect entries from
celebrated musicians as
he traveled. Shortly
after we find Louis Spohr
speaking about leaving on
his grand tour through
Europe in 1815 and of his
desire to carry an album
with entries from the
many artists he would
come across. He wrote in
his autobiography that
his most valuable
contribution came from
Beethoven in 1815.
Spohr's Notenstammbuch,
comprised only of musical
entries, is
groundbreaking because it
was coupled with a
concert tour, allowing
him to reach beyond the
Germanic world, where the
creation of these books
had been nearly
exclusive. Spohr brought
the practice of
Notenstammbucher to
France, and in turn
indirectly inspired Vogt
to create a book of his
own some fifteen years
later. Vogt's Musical
Album of Autographs
Vogt's Musical Album of
Autographs acts as a form
of a memoir, displaying
mementos of musicians who
held special meaning in
his life as well as
showing those with whom
he was enamored from the
younger generation. The
anonymous Pie Jesu
submitted to Vogt in 1831
marks the beginning of an
album that would span
nearly three decades by
the time the final entry,
an excerpt from Charles
Gounod's (1818-1893)
Faust, which premiered in
1859, was submitted.
Within this album we find
sixty-two entries from
musicians whom he must
have known very well
because they were
colleagues at the
Conservatoire, or
composers of opera whose
works he was performing
with the Paris Opera.
Other entries came from
performers with whom he
had performed and some
who were simply passing
through Paris, such as
Joseph Joachim
(1831-1907). Of the
sixty-three total
entries, some are
original, unpublished
works, while others came
from well-known existing
works. Nineteen of these
works are for solo piano,
sixteen utilize the oboe
or English horn, thirteen
feature the voice (in
many different
combinations, including
vocal solos with piano,
and small choral settings
up to one with double
choir), two feature
violin as a solo
instrument, and one even
features the now obscure
ophicleide. The
connections among the
sixty-two contributors to
Vogt's album are
virtually never-ending.
All were acquainted with
Vogt in some capacity,
from long-time
friendships to
relationships that were
created when Vogt
requested their entry.
Thus, while Vogt is the
person who is central to
each of these musicians,
the web can be greatly
expanded. In general, the
connections are centered
around the Conservatoire,
teacher lineages, the
Opera, and performing
circles. The
relationships between all
the contributors in the
album parallel the
current musical world, as
many of these kinds of
relationships still
exist, and permit us to
fantasize who might be
found in an album created
today by a musician of
the same standing. Also
important, is what sort
of entries the
contributors chose to
pen. The sixty-three
entries are varied, but
can be divided into
published and unpublished
works. Within the
published works, we find
opera excerpts, symphony
excerpts, mass excerpts,
and canons, while the
unpublished works include
music for solo piano,
oboe or English horn,
string instruments
(violin and cello), and
voice (voice with piano
and choral). The music
for oboe and English horn
works largely belong in
the unpublished works of
the album. These entries
were most likely written
to honor Vogt. Seven are
for oboe and piano and
were contributed by
Joseph Joachim, Pauline
Garcia Viardot
(1821-1910), Joseph
Artot, Anton Bohrer
(1783-1852), Georges
Onslow (1784-1853),
Desire Beaulieu
(1791-1863), and Narcisse
Girard (1797-1860). The
common thread between
these entries is the
simplicity of the melody
and structure. Many are
repetitive, especially
Beaulieu's entry, which
features a two-note
ostinato throughout the
work, which he even
included in his
signature. Two composers
contributed pieces for
English horn and piano,
and like the previous
oboe entries, are simple
and repetitive. These
were written by Michele
Carafa (1787-1872) and
Louis Clapisson
(1808-1866). There are
two other entries that
were unpublished works
and are chamber music.
One is an oboe trio by
Jacques Halevy
(1799-1862) and the other
is for oboe and strings
(string trio) by J. B.
Cramer (1771-1858). There
are five published works
in the album for oboe and
English horn. There are
three from operas and the
other two from symphonic
works. Ambroise Thomas
(1811-1896) contributed
an excerpt from the
Entr'acte of his opera La
Guerillero, and was
likely chosen because the
oboe was featured at this
moment. Hippolyte Chelard
(1789-1861) also chose to
honor Vogt by writing for
English horn. His entry,
for English horn and
piano, is taken from his
biggest success, Macbeth.
The English horn part was
actually taken from Lady
Macbeth's solo in the
sleepwalking scene.
Vogt's own entry also
falls into this category,
as he entered an excerpt
from Donizetti's Maria di
Rohan. The excerpt he
chose is a duet between
soprano and English horn.
There are two entries
featuring oboe that are
excerpted from symphonic
repertoire. One is a
familiar oboe melody from
Beethoven's Pastoral
Symphony entered by his
first biographer, Anton
Schindler (1796-1864).
The other is an excerpt
from Berlioz's choral
symphony, Romeo et
Juliette. He entered an
oboe solo from the Grand
Fete section of the
piece. Pedagogical
benefit All of these
works are lovely, and fit
within the album
wonderfully, but these
works also are great oboe
and English horn music
for young students. The
common thread between
these entries is the
simplicity of the melody
and structure. Many are
repetitive, especially
Beaulieu's entry, which
features a two-note
ostinato throughout the
work in the piano. This
repetitive structure is
beneficial for young
students for searching
for a short solo to
present at a studio
recital, or simply to
learn. They also work
many technical issues a
young player may
encounter, such as
mastering the rolling
finger to uncover and
recover the half hole.
This is true of Bealieu's
Pensee as well as
Onslow's Andantino.
Berlioz's entry from
Romeo et Juliette
features very long
phrases, which helps with
endurance and helps keep
the air spinning through
the oboe. Some of the
pieces also use various
levels of ornamentation,
from trills to grace
notes, and short
cadenzas. This allows the
student to learn
appropriate ways to
phrase with these added
notes. The chamber music
is a valuable way to
start younger students
with chamber music,
especially the short
quartet by Cramer for
oboe and string trio. All
of these pieces will not
tax the student to learn
a work that is more
advanced, as well as give
them a full piece that
they can work on from
beginning to end in a
couple weeks, instead of
months. Editorial Policy
The works found in this
edition are based on the
manuscript housed at the
Morgan Library in New
York City (call number
Cary 348, V886. A3). When
possible, published
scores were consulted and
compared to clarify pitch
and text. The general
difficulties in creating
an edition of these works
stem from entries that
appear to be hastily
written, and thus omit
complete articulations
and dynamic indications
for all passages and
parts. The manuscript has
been modernized into a
performance edition. The
score order from the
manuscript has been
retained. If an entry
also exists in a
published work, and this
was not indicated on the
manuscript, appropriate
titles and subtitles have
been added tacitly. For
entries that were
untitled, the beginning
tempo marking or
expressive directive has
been added as its title
tacitly. Part names have
been changed from the
original language to
English. If no part name
was present, it was added
tacitly. All scores are
transposing where
applicable. Measure
numbers have been added
at the beginning of every
system. Written
directives have been
retained in the original
language and are placed
relative to where they
appear in the manuscript.
Tempo markings from the
manuscript have been
retained, even if they
were abbreviated, i.e.,
Andte. The barlines,
braces, brackets, and
clefs are modernized. The
beaming and stem
direction has been
modernized. Key
signatures have been
modernized as some of the
flats/sharps do not
appear on the correct
lines or spaces. Time
signatures have been
modernized. In a few
cases, when a time
signature was missing in
the manuscript, it has
been added tacitly.
Triplet and rhythmic
groupings have been
modernized. Slurs, ties,
and articulations
(staccato and accent)
have been modernized.
Slurs, ties, and
articulations have been
added to parallel
passages tacitly.
Courtesy accidentals
found in the manuscript
have been removed, unless
it appeared to be helpful
to the performer. Dynamic
indications from the
manuscript have been
retained, except where
noted. --Kristin

Alsace region along the
German border. At the
time of his birth,
Strasbourg had been

a year after enrolling,
he was awarded the

the fourth oboist to
achieve this award. By
1802 he had been
appointed
répétiteur, which
involved teaching the

filling in for Sallantin
in exchange for a free

Sallantin retired. This
was a position he held

retiring in 1853, making
him the longest serving

final tour in 1839,
traveling to Tours and
Bordeaux. During this
tour he appeared with the
singer Caroline Naldi,
Countess de Sparre, and
the violinist Joseph
Artôt
(1815–1845). This
ended his active career
as a soloist. His
performance was described
in the Revue et gazette
musicale de Paris as
having “lost none
of his superiority over
the oboe….
It’s always the
same grace, the same
sweetness. We made a trip
to Switzerland, just by
closing your eyes and
listening to
Vogt’s
oboe.â€Vogt was also
active performing in
Paris as a chamber and
orchestral musician. He
was one of the founding
members of the
Société des
Concerts du
Conservatoire, a group
established in 1828 by
violinist and conductor
François-Antoine
Habeneck
(1781–1849). The
group featured faculty
and students performing
alongside each other and
works such as Beethoven
symphonies, which had
never been heard in
France. He also premiered
the groundbreaking
woodwind quintets of
Antonin Reicha
(1770–1836).After
his retirement from the
Opéra in 1834 and from
the Société des
Concerts du Conservatoire
in 1842, Vogt began to
slow down. His final
known performance was of
Cherubini’s Ave
Maria on English horn
with tenor Alexis Dupont
(1796–1874) in
1843. He then began to
reflect on his life and
the people he had known.
When he reached his 60s,
he began gathering
entries for his Musical
Album of
Autographs.Autograph
AlbumsVogt’s
Musical Album of
Autographs is part of a
larger practice of
keeping autograph albums,
also commonly known as
Stammbuch or Album
Amicorum (meaning book of
friendship or friendship
book), which date back to
the time of the
Reformation and the
University of Wittenberg.
It was during the
mid-sixteenth century
that students at the
University of Wittenberg
began passing around
bibles for their fellow
students and professors
to sign, leaving messages
to remember them by as
they moved on to the next
part of their lives. The
things people wrote were
mottos, quotes, and even
drawings of their family
coat of arms or some
other scene that meant
something to the owner.
These albums became the
way these young students
remembered their school
family once they had
moved on to another
school or town. It was
also common for the
entrants to comment on
other entries and for the
owner to amend entries
when they learned of
important life details
such as marriage or
death.As the practice
continued, bibles were
set aside for emblem
books, which was a
popular book genre that
featured allegorical
illustrations (emblems)
in a tripartite form:
image, motto, epigram.
The first emblem book
used for autographs was
published in 1531 by
Andrea Alciato
(1492–1550), a
collection of 212 Latin
emblem poems. In 1558,
the first book conceived
for the purpose of the
album amicorum was
published by Lyon de
Tournes
(1504–1564) called
the Thesaurus Amicorum.
These books continued to
evolve, and spread to
wider circles away from
universities. Albums
could be found being kept
by noblemen, physicians,
lawyers, teachers,
painters, musicians, and
artisans.The albums
eventually became more
specialized, leading to
Musical Autograph Albums
(or Notestammbücher).
Before this
specialization, musicians
contributed in one form
or another, but our
knowledge of them in
these albums is mostly
limited to individual
people or events. Some
would simply sign their
name while others would
insert a fragment of
music, usually a canon
(titled fuga) with text
in Latin. Canons were
popular because they
displayed the
craftsmanship of the
composer in a limited
space. Composers
well-known today,
including J. S. Bach,
Telemann, Mozart,
Beethoven, Dowland, and
Brahms, all participated
in the practice, with
Beethoven being the first
to indicate an interest
in creating an album only
of music.This interest
came around 1815. In an
1845 letter from Johann
Friedrich Naue to
Heinrich Carl
Breidenstein, Naue
recalled an 1813 visit
with Beethoven, who
presented a book
suggesting Naue to
collect entries from
celebrated musicians as
he traveled. Shortly
after we find Louis Spohr
speaking about leaving on
his “grand
tour†through
Europe in 1815 and of his
desire to carry an album
with entries from the
many artists he would
come across. He wrote in
his autobiography that
his “most valuable
contribution†came
from Beethoven in 1815.
Spohr’s
Notenstammbuch, comprised
only of musical entries,
is groundbreaking because
it was coupled with a
concert tour, allowing
him to reach beyond the
Germanic world, where the
creation of these books
had been nearly
exclusive. Spohr brought
the practice of
Notenstammbücher to
France, and in turn
indirectly inspired Vogt
to create a book of his
own some fifteen years
later.Vogt’s
Musical Album of
AutographsVogt’s
Musical Album of
Autographs acts as a form
of a memoir, displaying
mementos of musicians who
held special meaning in
his life as well as
showing those with whom
he was enamored from the
younger generation. The
anonymous Pie Jesu
submitted to Vogt in 1831
marks the beginning of an
album that would span
nearly three decades by
the time the final entry,
an excerpt from Charles
Gounod’s
(1818–1893) Faust,
which premiered in 1859,
was submitted.Within this

William Butler
Yeats. The
Everlasting Voices is the
perfect blend of textural
variety and harmonic
interest for the advanced
treble ensemble.
Employing a powerful
text, Baas' vocal
layering coupled with
piano and optional cello
make this compelling
piece a programming
must!. O sweet
everlasting Voices, be
still; Go to the guards
of the heavenly fold And
bid them wander obeying
your will, Flame under
flame, till Time be no
more; Have you not heard
that our hearts are old,
That you call in birds,
in wind on the hill, In
shaken boughs, in tide on
the shore? O sweet
everlasting Voices, be
still. This SSAA choral
work by Jimmy Baas was
comissioned by the
Lumberton HS Varsity
Treble Choir. The opening
and closing lines of the
poem, O sweet everlasting
voices, be still provide
the perfect bookends for
two larger sections of
the poem. These two
sections are equally
divided into verses. The
opening line is used once
again as a transition
between the verses. The
previously mentioned
lines, O sweet
everlasting voices, are
overlapped as different
layers of voices enter
and sustain. A fifth and
sixth voice, the cello
and piano accompaniment
take part in these layers
as well. The words be
still are very much a
part of the mood each
time as the everlasting
voices become quiet and
still. The two verses
feature different voices
within the SSAA choir.
Verse 1, the sopranos,
and verse 2 the altos.
There are many moments in
this piece to explore the
full range and color of
the SSAA choir. The piano
and cello play an
important part
throughout, making this
piece an excellent choice
for any festival women's
chorus. O sweet
everlasting Voices, be
still;Go to the guards of

them wander obeying your
will,Flame under flame,

3. THE INTERPRETER WILL
BE DRESSED IN BLACK AND
WHITE, MAINLY WHITE IF
BLUISH LIGHT IS AT HAND
... The enormously rich
vocabulary and the
accuracy of expression -
in temporal, spatial and
material terms - is
particularly impressive.
To comprehend all of it,
a reading on three
different levels is
called for: a first
reading of one passage,
then the acquisition of
unknown vocabulary;
thirdly a repeated -
knowing - reading, which
points out the utopia of
precise expression: The
text is treated in a
rather problematic (cold:
le froid?) manner: it's
not the semantic content
that is primarily
dominant, but rather the
outward appearance, the
mise en page and the
syntactic structure. 4.
THE INTERPRETER ENTERS
THE STAGE WITH ALL THE
FLUTES (S)HE WILL PLAY
DURING THE CONCERT AND
DEPOSITS THEM - EXCEPT
FOR THE BASS FLUTE - ON
SHELF B; IF (S)HE ONLY
PLAYS THIS PIECE, (S)HE
SHOULD PUT THE PROGRAMME
OF THE CONCERT THERE; IN
ANY CASE THE INSTRUCTIONS
IN BAR 195 MUST BE
FOLLOWED ... In concrete
terms the 10 centimetres
of a line in the minuit
edition correspond to 10
seconds of musical
structure (which is three
times as slow as the
average reading speed).
Only seven years later is
the term / expression
casse ferique changed
into casse ferrique, and
thus its secret is
revealed, which almost
becomes - due to its
unreadability - the key
to the planned musical
cycle. The text is
measured from section to
section (big format: each
section is marked with a
continuous, ,,cold chord
by the bass flute, played
on tape recorder), from
full stop to full stop
(new entry of keynote
material), from comma to
comma (tripling of
continuous resonances)
etc. 5. DURING THE
PERFORMANCE UP TO BAR
195, THE INTERPRETER WILL
TRY - IN A KIND OF
THEATRICAL ADAPTATION -
TO EXPRESS HIS/HER OWN
FEELING OF IRREPRESSIBLY
GROWING FRUSTRATION; FROM
BAR 195 ONWARDS (S)HE
WILL DEFINITELY HAVE PUT
UP WITH THE BASS FLUTE
... Brackets in the text
bring about a reduction
of sound (the
differentiating micro
tones are no longer
used), the syntactical
progression to
subordinate clauses of
the remotest degree has
its immediate effect on
dynamics (degree of
volume). Then: the
perception of a logical
and yet erratic syntax,
vastly progressive layers
of subordinate clauses
and brackets (lowering
tone of voice?), a
polyphony of ,,memoire,
which leads to a
maelstrom of attention, a
tonally centric /
concentrated (main
material?) and
progressive (subordinate
and brackets-material?)
reading, listening and
proceeding. The different
levels are constantly in
touch - transferring the
sensuous moment of scenes
of bodily encounter
(Tryptique) that are
evoked again and again -
in perpetual excitement
of text and imagination,
memory and remembering
sensitivity. 6. THE BODY
MOVEMENTS AND FIXATION
(FIGE) , BOTH CLEARLY
PERCEPTIBLE, WILL EVOKE
AND SUPPORT THE SAME
EMOTIONS ... The basic
moods of the text will be
reflected in the
relationship (which is
very important here) of
the interpreter to the
music; (s)he is somehow
at the mercy of given
(and not always
transparent) structures
on the one hand and the
complexity of musical
sensations on the other,
which has to be defeated
inspite of exhaustion.
It's not only here that
semantic agreement
(besides the
materialistic structure)
of music and text can be
felt: On top of that
there's the existential
helplessness in view of
the mercilessly flowing
polyphony of levels and
events -- as a mirror of
this there are the
remembered scenes of the
Flemish cold in the
second chapter (Les
Georgiques). The
interpreters are
confronted with unusual
directions which
correspond to the
adjectives in the
respective passages of
the text: anachronique,
engourdi, glace et acre,
monotone et desert etc.
The possibilities of
interpretation are
amplified, the ability to
perceive and personal
reaction is opened. The
impression of this
inexorability is
multiplied in the
extremest way by the fact
that the particular
layers can be found in
Simon's complete works.
It's a continuous work of
art in which each novel
turns into a chapter of a
complex, cyclic whole;
its title denoting only
one main strand, as it
were. A personal comment
is made also as regards
the clearly defined
stage; the mise en scene
points out the
extra-musical elements
and the correlation
between text, human being
and music. 7. THE
INTERPRETER IS ASKED TO
MOVE FREELY WITHIN A
DEFINED SPOT WITHOUT
LOOKING ARTIFICIAL;
SOUNDS CAUSED BY THE FEET
MOVING ON THE SAND ARE
WELCOME DURING THE WHOLE
PIECE ... And here the
idea of a cycle is born,
an attempt to transfer
these nuances of
memorized structures,
this clarity and
coldness, to transform
the text into musical
material. Walter

TextThe text for this
work was written while on
an extended seashore
retreat several years
ago. It was the product
of many long walks
looking out into the
vastness of the sea. It
was a time in my life
that was immediately
preceded by great
personal loss and
turmoil. It was in that
silence and space I was
able to reconnect to that
still, small voice within
that reminded me that I
was merely a part of
something much bigger
than myself. The text
that was hewn from that
experience is a
reflection on the
importance of allowing
space in my daily life to
experience the simple
joys that every moment
has to offer.Optional
NarrationRegardless of
race or creed the
abundance that is found
in the reality of the
present moment is
augmented by regular
exposure to the arts. The
capricious nature of time
in the age of immediacy
is that it is entirely
flexible. Experience
suggests that exposure to
natural beauty, such as
watching a sunrise
unravel over the sea or a
cloud formation sweep
through a mountain range,
allows an individual to
feel part of something
greater than themselves.
Music has the ability to
take time and slow it
down, revealing to the
participant their part in
the whole. Taking part in
choral music, whether as
an audience member,
singer, conductor or
composer is an
opportunity to slow down
time long enough to allow
the beauty of life to
catch up with you. $2.75 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 1 to 2 weeks | | |

inches. SEVEN DAYS
is a cycle for solo piano
in 21 movements, most
lasting between three and
seven minutes,
distributed in the form
of a custom app produced
by the 92Y and released
during their Fall 2021
season. Using the app on
their phones, listeners
are asked to listen to
three movements a day
according to an
approximate schedule -
one movement in the
morning, one in the
afternoon, and another
sometime in the evening -
for seven days. The music
is performed by Pedja
Muzijevic and presented
alongside paintings by
Gloria Maximo. (Please
visit 92Y.org for
information on how to
download the Seven Days
app.) The work is
designed as a listening
experience that tunes us
into the passing of time,
connecting us both to the
present moment as well as
the cycle of the week.
The experience invites
music to inhabit and
structure our everyday -
to find us where we are
in the world. The
morning-afternoonevening
schedule is meant to
focus participants on the
dawn-to-dusk cycle as
well as to create a
communal listening
ritual. It is also an
experiment in large-scale
form, designed to draw
attention to musical
material developing
across a week-long
expanse, interspersed
with vast silences. SEVEN
DAYS was shaped by a year
spent in relative
isolation due to the
pandemic. While it is a
work composed during a
time of quarantine, it
will be experienced first
by an audience in the
process of returning to a
more normal world. In
that sense, it is an
artwork born out of a
year of relatively
cloistered existence that
seeks to preserve aspects
of that experience as we
move forward. The piece
was also inspired by the
work of Morton Feldman
and Chantal Akerman,
whose large-scale works
consider time, process,
and stillness. Their art
struck me with a fresh
relevance during the
silent stretches of the
pandemic year 2020. It
was also a year in which
writings about time,
penned by contemplatives
like Henry David Thoreau
and Thomas Merton, held
new weight. All of this
in turnresonated with
Gloria Maximo's profound
paintings, which I've
long admired. SEVEN DAYS
is an artwork we are
invited to do - using
music to point our
attention to the present
moment, the everyday, and
the seemingly mundane. It
is a piece listeners are
also asked to live within
as it unfolds over a week
rather than to witness it
live. The key players
here are time and the
listener's own
surroundings, starring
together alongside music
and art in a wordless
drama. -Gregory

ca is intended for any
intermediate to
professional concert band
looking to honor the
United States of America
and/or members of the
Armed Forces. It is
therefore ideal for
performance on or around
any patriotic holiday. It
is not a typical setting
of the tune, in that many
liberties are taken to
showcase each instrument
of the ensemble, with the
melodic focus constantly
shifting. The conductor
and performers should
seek out these moments,
and bring them to life
whenever possible. The
introduction, mm. 1-12,
should be approached in
the style of a fanfare,
with an emphasis on
syncopation and
exaggerated nuance in
regards to articulation
style. Here, hidden
beneath woodwind
flourishes and triumphant
bugle calls, the low
voices play quotes of
familiar American tunes
such as The Star-Spangled
Banner (m. 1, beat 3) and
Simple Gifts (m. 3, beat
4). In mm. 15-22 the
melody is carefully
hidden among counter
lines. This should be
carefully balanced to
highlight the melody,
while still shaping the
counter melodies
appropriately. A brief
return to the fanfare
style occurs in mm. 33-35
before melding back into
the chorale style. In
regards to dynamics,
performers should be
reminded that within any
single dynamic exists a
range of expressive
shades. No two notes
should be played at the
same volume, ensuring
direction in even the
simplest of phrases.
Generally speaking, the
fortissimo dynamic should
be approached
thoughtfully, with the
bulk of the sound coming
from the lowest voices,
and the least from the
highest
voices. America is
