Transcribed by Franz
Liszt. Introduction
It is true that Schubert
himself is somewhat to
blame for the very
unsatisfactory manner in
which his admirable piano
pieces are treated. He
was too immoderately
productive, wrote
incessantly, mixing
insignificant with
important things, grand
things with mediocre
work, paid no heed to
criticism, and always
soared on his wings. Like
a bird in the air, he
lived in music and sang
in angelic fashion.
--Franz Liszt, letter to
Dr. S. Lebert (1868) Of
those compositions that
greatly interest me,
there are only Chopin's
and yours. --Franz Liszt,
letter to Robert Schumann
(1838) She [Clara
Schumann] was astounded
at hearing me. Her
compositions are really
very remarkable,
especially for a woman.
There is a hundred times
more creativity and real
feeling in them than in
all the past and present
fantasias by Thalberg.
--Franz Liszt, letter to
Marie d'Agoult (1838)
Chretien Urhan
(1790-1845) was a
Belgian-born violinist,
organist and composer who
flourished in the musical
life of Paris in the
early nineteenth century.
According to various
accounts, he was deeply
religious, harshly
ascetic and wildly
eccentric, though revered
by many important and
influential members of
the Parisian musical
community. Regrettably,
history has forgotten
Urhan's many musical
achievements, the most
important of which was
arguably his pioneering
work in promoting the
music of Franz Schubert.
He devoted much of his
energies to championing
Schubert's music, which
at the time was unknown
outside of Vienna.
Undoubtedly, Urhan was
responsible for
stimulating this
enthusiasm in Franz
Liszt; Liszt regularly
heard Urhan's organ
playing in the
St.-Vincent-de-Paul
church in Paris, and the
two became personal
acquaintances. At
eighteen years of age,
Liszt was on the verge of
establishing himself as
the foremost pianist in
Europe, and this
awakening to Schubert's
music would prove to be a
profound experience.
Liszt's first travels
outside of his native
provincial Hungary were
to Vienna in 1821-1823,
where his father enrolled
him in studies with Carl
Czerny (piano) and
Antonio Salieri (music
theory). Both men had
important involvements
with Schubert; Czerny
(like Urhan) as performer
and advocate of
Schubert's music and
Salieri as his theory and
composition teacher from
1813-1817. Curiously,
Liszt and Schubert never
met personally, despite
their geographical
proximity in Vienna
during these years.
Inevitably, legends later
arose that the two had
been personal
acquaintances, although
Liszt would dismiss these
as fallacious: I never
knew Schubert personally,
he was once quoted as
saying. Liszt's initial
exposure to Schubert's
music was the Lieder,
what Urhan prized most of
all. He accompanied the
tenor Benedict
Randhartinger in numerous
performances of
Schubert's Lieder and
then, perhaps realizing
that he could benefit the
composer more on his own
terms, transcribed a
number of the Lieder for
piano solo. Many of these
transcriptions he would
perform himself on
concert tour during the
so-called Glanzzeit, or
time of splendor from
1839-1847. This publicity
did much to promote
reception of Schubert's
music throughout Europe.
Once Liszt retired from
the concert stage and
settled in Weimar as a
conductor in the 1840s,
he continued to perform
Schubert's orchestral
music, his Symphony No. 9
being a particular
favorite, and is credited
with giving the world
premiere performance of
Schubert's opera Alfonso
und Estrella in 1854. At
this time, he
contemplated writing a
biography of the
composer, which
regrettably remained
uncompleted. Liszt's
devotion to Schubert
would never waver.
Liszt's relationship with
Robert and Clara Schumann
was far different and far
more complicated; by
contrast, they were all
personal acquaintances.
What began as a
relationship of mutual
respect and admiration
soon deteriorated into
one of jealousy and
hostility, particularly
on the Schumann's part.
Liszt's initial contact
with Robert's music
happened long before they
had met personally, when
Liszt published an
analysis of Schumann's
piano music for the
Gazette musicale in 1837,
a gesture that earned
Robert's deep
appreciation. In the
following year Clara met
Liszt during a concert
tour in Vienna and
presented him with more
of Schumann's piano
music. Clara and her
father Friedrich Wieck,
who accompanied Clara on
her concert tours, were
quite taken by Liszt: We
have heard Liszt. He can
be compared to no other
player...he arouses
fright and astonishment.
His appearance at the
piano is indescribable.
He is an original...he is
absorbed by the piano.
Liszt, too, was impressed
with Clara--at first the
energy, intelligence and
accuracy of her piano
playing and later her
compositions--to the
extent that he dedicated
to her the 1838 version
of his Etudes d'execution
transcendante d'apres
Paganini. Liszt had a
closer personal
relationship with Clara
than with Robert until
the two men finally met
in 1840. Schumann was
astounded by Liszt's
piano playing. He wrote
to Clara that Liszt had
played like a god and had
inspired indescribable
furor of applause. His
review of Liszt even
included a heroic
personification with
Napoleon. In Leipzig,
Schumann was deeply
impressed with Liszt's
interpretations of his
Noveletten, Op. 21 and
Fantasy in C Major, Op.
17 (dedicated to Liszt),
enthusiastically
observing that, I feel as
if I had known you twenty
years. Yet a variety of
events followed that
diminished Liszt's glory
in the eyes of the
Schumanns. They became
critical of the cult-like
atmosphere that arose
around his recitals, or
Lisztomania as it came to
be called; conceivably,
this could be attributed
to professional jealousy.
Clara, in particular,
came to loathe Liszt,
noting in a letter to
Joseph Joachim, I despise
Liszt from the depths of
my soul. She recorded a
stunning diary entry a
day after Liszt's death,
in which she noted, He
was an eminent keyboard
virtuoso, but a dangerous
example for the
young...As a composer he
was terrible. By
contrast, Liszt did not
share in these negative
sentiments; no evidence
suggests that he had any
ill-regard for the
Schumanns. In Weimar, he
did much to promote
Schumann's music,
conducting performances
of his Scenes from Faust
and Manfred, during a
time in which few
orchestras expressed
interest, and premiered
his opera Genoveva. He
later arranged a benefit
concert for Clara
following Robert's death,
featuring Clara as
soloist in Robert's Piano
Concerto, an event that
must have been
exhilarating to witness.
Regardless, her opinion
of him would never
change, despite his
repeated gestures of
courtesy and respect.
Liszt's relationship with
Schubert was a spiritual
one, with music being the
one and only link between
the two men. That with
the Schumanns was
personal, with music
influenced by a hero
worship that would
aggravate the
relationship over time.
Nonetheless, Liszt would
remain devoted to and
enthusiastic for the
music and achievements of
these composers. He would
be a vital force in
disseminating their music
to a wider audience, as
he would be with many
other composers
throughout his career.
His primary means for
accomplishing this was
the piano transcription.
Liszt and the
Transcription
Transcription versus
Paraphrase Transcription
and paraphrase were
popular terms in
nineteenth-century music,
although certainly not
unique to this period.
Musicians understood that
there were clear
distinctions between
these two terms, but as
is often the case these
distinctions could be
blurred. Transcription,
literally writing over,
entails reworking or
adapting a piece of music
for a performance medium
different from that of
its original; arrangement
is a possible synonym.
Adapting is a key part of
this process, for the
success of a
transcription relies on
the transcriber's ability
to adapt the piece to the
different medium. As a
result, the pre-existing
material is generally
kept intact, recognizable
and intelligible; it is
strict, literal,
objective. Contextual
meaning is maintained in
the process, as are
elements of style and
form. Paraphrase, by
contrast, implies
restating something in a
different manner, as in a
rewording of a document
for reasons of clarity.
In nineteenth-century
music, paraphrasing
indicated elaborating a
piece for purposes of
expressive virtuosity,
often as a vehicle for
showmanship. Variation is
an important element, for
the source material may
be varied as much as the
paraphraser's imagination
will allow; its purpose
is metamorphosis.
Transcription is adapting
and arranging;
paraphrasing is
transforming and
reworking. Transcription
preserves the style of
the original; paraphrase
absorbs the original into
a different style.
Transcription highlights
the original composer;
paraphrase highlights the
paraphraser.
Approximately half of
Liszt's compositional
output falls under the
category of transcription
and paraphrase; it is
noteworthy that he never
used the term
arrangement. Much of his
early compositional
activities were
transcriptions and
paraphrases of works of
other composers, such as
the symphonies of
Beethoven and Berlioz,
vocal music by Schubert,
and operas by Donizetti
and Bellini. It is
conceivable that he
focused so intently on
work of this nature early
in his career as a means
to perfect his
compositional technique,
although transcription
and paraphrase continued
well after the technique
had been mastered; this
might explain why he
drastically revised and
rewrote many of his
original compositions
from the 1830s (such as
the Transcendental Etudes
and Paganini Etudes) in
the 1850s. Charles Rosen,
a sympathetic interpreter
of Liszt's piano works,
observes, The new
revisions of the
Transcendental Etudes are
not revisions but concert
paraphrases of the old,
and their art lies in the
technique of
transformation. The
Paganini etudes are piano
transcriptions of violin
etudes, and the
Transcendental Etudes are
piano transcriptions of
piano etudes. The
principles are the same.
He concludes by noting,
Paraphrase has shaded off
into
composition...Composition
and paraphrase were not
identical for him, but
they were so closely
interwoven that
separation is impossible.
The significance of
transcription and
paraphrase for Liszt the
composer cannot be
overstated, and the
mutual influence of each
needs to be better
understood. Undoubtedly,
Liszt the composer as we
know him today would be
far different had he not
devoted so much of his
career to transcribing
and paraphrasing the
music of others. He was
perhaps one of the first
composers to contend that
transcription and
paraphrase could be
genuine art forms on
equal par with original
pieces; he even claimed
to be the first to use
these two terms to
describe these classes of
arrangements. Despite the
success that Liszt
achieved with this type
of work, others viewed it
with circumspection and
criticism. Robert
Schumann, although deeply
impressed with Liszt's
keyboard virtuosity, was
harsh in his criticisms
of the transcriptions.
Schumann interpreted them
as indicators that
Liszt's virtuosity had
hindered his
compositional development
and suggested that Liszt
transcribed the music of
others to compensate for
his own compositional
deficiencies.
Nonetheless, Liszt's
piano transcriptions,
what he sometimes called
partitions de piano (or
piano scores), were
instrumental in promoting
composers whose music was
unknown at the time or
inaccessible in areas
outside of major European
capitals, areas that
Liszt willingly toured
during his Glanzzeit. To
this end, the
transcriptions had to be
literal arrangements for
the piano; a Beethoven
symphony could not be
introduced to an
unknowing audience if its
music had been subjected
to imaginative
elaborations and
variations. The same
would be true of the 1833
transcription of
Berlioz's Symphonie
fantastique (composed
only three years
earlier), the
astonishingly novel
content of which would
necessitate a literal and
intelligible rendering.
Opera, usually more
popular and accessible
for the general public,
was a different matter,
and in this realm Liszt
could paraphrase the
original and manipulate
it as his imagination
would allow without
jeopardizing its
reception; hence, the
paraphrases on the operas
of Bellini, Donizetti,
Mozart, Meyerbeer and
Verdi. Reminiscence was
another term coined by
Liszt for the opera
paraphrases, as if the
composer were reminiscing
at the keyboard following
a memorable evening at
the opera. Illustration
(reserved on two
occasions for Meyerbeer)
and fantasy were
additional terms. The
operas of Wagner were
exceptions. His music was
less suited to paraphrase
due to its general lack
of familiarity at the
time. Transcription of
Wagner's music was thus
obligatory, as it was of
Beethoven's and Berlioz's
music; perhaps the
composer himself insisted
on this approach. Liszt's
Lieder Transcriptions
Liszt's initial
encounters with
Schubert's music, as
mentioned previously,
were with the Lieder. His
first transcription of a
Schubert Lied was Die
Rose in 1833, followed by
Lob der Tranen in 1837.
Thirty-nine additional
transcriptions appeared
at a rapid pace over the
following three years,
and in 1846, the Schubert
Lieder transcriptions
would conclude, by which
point he had completed
fifty-eight, the most of
any composer. Critical
response to these
transcriptions was highly
favorable--aside from the
view held by
Schumann--particularly
when Liszt himself played
these pieces in concert.
Some were published
immediately by Anton
Diabelli, famous for the
theme that inspired
Beethoven's variations.
Others were published by
the Viennese publisher
Tobias Haslinger (one of
Beethoven's and
Schubert's publishers in
the 1820s), who sold his
reserves so quickly that
he would repeatedly plead
for more. However,
Liszt's enthusiasm for
work of this nature soon
became exhausted, as he
noted in a letter of 1839
to the publisher
Breitkopf und Hartel:
That good Haslinger
overwhelms me with
Schubert. I have just
sent him twenty-four new
songs (Schwanengesang and
Winterreise), and for the
moment I am rather tired
of this work. Haslinger
was justified in his
demands, for the Schubert
transcriptions were
received with great
enthusiasm. One Gottfried
Wilhelm Fink, then editor
of the Allgemeine
musikalische Zeitung,
observed of these
transcriptions: Nothing
in recent memory has
caused such sensation and
enjoyment in both
pianists and audiences as
these arrangements...The
demand for them has in no
way been satisfied; and
it will not be until
these arrangements are
seen on pianos
everywhere. They have
indeed made quite a
splash. Eduard Hanslick,
never a sympathetic
critic of Liszt's music,
acknowledged thirty years
after the fact that,
Liszt's transcriptions of
Schubert Lieder were
epoch-making. There was
hardly a concert in which
Liszt did not have to
play one or two of
them--even when they were
not listed on the
program. These
transcriptions quickly
became some of his most
sough-after pieces,
despite their extreme
technical demands.
Leading pianists of the
day, such as Clara Wieck
and Sigismond Thalberg,
incorporated them into
their concert programs
immediately upon
publication. Moreover,
the transcriptions would
serve as inspirations for
other composers, such as
Stephen Heller, Cesar
Franck and later Leopold
Godowsky, all of whom
produced their own
transcriptions of
Schubert's Lieder. Liszt
would transcribe the
Lieder of other composers
as well, including those
by Mendelssohn, Chopin,
Anton Rubinstein and even
himself. Robert Schumann,
of course, would not be
ignored. The first
transcription of a
Schumann Lied was the
celebrated Widmung from
Myrten in 1848, the only
Schumann transcription
that Liszt completed
during the composer's
lifetime. (Regrettably,
there is no evidence of
Schumann's regard of this
transcription, or even if
he was aware of it.) From
the years 1848-1881,
Liszt transcribed twelve
of Robert Schumann's
Lieder (including one
orchestral Lied) and
three of Clara (one from
each of her three
published Lieder cycles);
he would transcribe no
other works of these two
composers. The Schumann
Lieder transcriptions,
contrary to those of
Schubert, are literal
arrangements, posing, in
general, far fewer
demands on the pianist's
technique. They are
comparatively less
imaginative in their
treatment of the original
material. Additionally,
they seem to have been
less valued in their day
than the Schubert
transcriptions, and it is
noteworthy that none of
the Schumann
transcriptions bear
dedications, as most of
the Schubert
transcriptions do. The
greatest challenge posed
by Lieder transcriptions,
regardless of the
composer or the nature of
the transcription, was to
combine the vocal and
piano parts of the
original such that the
character of each would
be preserved, a challenge
unique to this form of
transcription. Each part
had to be intact and
aurally recognizable, the
vocal line in particular.
Complications could be
manifold in a Lied that
featured dissimilar
parts, such as Schubert's
Auf dem Wasser zu singen,
whose piano accompaniment
depicts the rocking of
the boat on the
shimmering waves while
the vocal line reflects
on the passing of time.
Similar complications
would be encountered in
Gretchen am Spinnrade, in
which the ubiquitous
sixteenth-note pattern in
the piano's right hand
epitomizes the
ever-turning spinning
wheel over which the
soprano voice expresses
feelings of longing and
heartache. The resulting
transcriptions for solo
piano would place
exceptional demands on
the pianist. The
complications would be
far less imposing in
instances in which voice
and piano were less
differentiated, as in
many of Schumann's Lieder
that Liszt transcribed.
The piano parts in these
Lieder are true
accompaniments for the
voice, providing harmonic
foundation and rhythmic
support by doubling the
vocal line throughout.
The transcriptions, thus,
are strict and literal,
with far fewer demands on
both pianist and
transcriber. In all of
Liszt's Lieder
transcriptions,
regardless of the way in
which the two parts are
combined, the melody
(i.e. the vocal line) is
invariably the focal
point; the melody should
sing on the piano, as if
it were the voice. The
piano part, although
integral to contributing
to the character of the
music, is designed to
function as
accompaniment. A singing
melody was a crucial
objective in
nineteenth-century piano
performance, which in
part might explain the
zeal in transcribing and
paraphrasing vocal music
for the piano. Friedrich
Wieck, father and teacher
of Clara Schumann,
stressed this point
repeatedly in his 1853
treatise Clavier und
Gesang (Piano and Song):
When I speak in general
of singing, I refer to
that species of singing
which is a form of
beauty, and which is a
foundation for the most
refined and most perfect
interpretation of music;
and, above all things, I
consider the culture of
beautiful tones the basis
for the finest possible
touch on the piano. In
many respects, the piano
and singing should
explain and supplement
each other. They should
mutually assist in
expressing the sublime
and the noble, in forms
of unclouded beauty. Much
of Liszt's piano music
should be interpreted
with this concept in
mind, the Lieder
transcriptions and opera
paraphrases, in
particular. To this end,
Liszt provided numerous
written instructions to
the performer to
emphasize the vocal line
in performance, with
Italian directives such
as un poco marcato il
canto, accentuato assai
il canto and ben
pronunziato il canto.
Repeated indications of
cantando,singend and
espressivo il canto
stress the significance
of the singing tone. As
an additional means of
achieving this and
providing the performer
with access to the
poetry, Liszt insisted,
at what must have been a
publishing novelty at the
time, on printing the
words of the Lied in the
music itself. Haslinger,
seemingly oblivious to
Liszt's intent, initially
printed the poems of the
early Schubert
transcriptions separately
inside the front covers.
Liszt argued that the
transcriptions must be
reprinted with the words
underlying the notes,
exactly as Schubert had
done, a request that was
honored by printing the
words above the
right-hand staff. Liszt
also incorporated a
visual scheme for
distinguishing voice and
accompaniment, influenced
perhaps by Chopin, by
notating the
accompaniment in cue
size. His transcription
of Robert Schumann's
Fruhlings Ankunft
features the vocal line
in normal size, the piano
accompaniment in reduced
size, an unmistakable
guide in a busy texture
as to which part should
be emphasized: Example 1.
Schumann-Liszt Fruhlings
Ankunft, mm. 1-2. The
same practice may be
found in the
transcription of
Schumann's An die Turen
will ich schleichen. In
this piece, the performer
must read three staves,
in which the baritone
line in the central staff
is to be shared between
the two hands based on
the stem direction of the
notes: Example 2.
Schumann-Liszt An die
Turen will ich
schleichen, mm. 1-5. This
notational practice is
extremely beneficial in
this instance, given the
challenge of reading
three staves and the
manner in which the vocal
line is performed by the
two hands. Curiously,
Liszt did not use this
practice in other
transcriptions.
Approaches in Lieder
Transcription Liszt
adopted a variety of
approaches in his Lieder
transcriptions, based on
the nature of the source
material, the ways in
which the vocal and piano
parts could be combined
and the ways in which the
vocal part could sing.
One approach, common with
strophic Lieder, in which
the vocal line would be
identical in each verse,
was to vary the register
of the vocal part. The
transcription of Lob der
Tranen, for example,
incorporates three of the
four verses of the
original Lied, with the
register of the vocal
line ascending one octave
with each verse (from low
to high), as if three
different voices were
participating. By the
conclusion, the music
encompasses the entire
range of Liszt's keyboard
to produce a stunning
climactic effect, and the
variety of register of
the vocal line provides a
welcome textural variety
in the absence of the
words. The three verses
of the transcription of
Auf dem Wasser zu singen
follow the same approach,
in which the vocal line
ascends from the tenor,
to the alto and to the
soprano registers with
each verse.
Fruhlingsglaube adopts
the opposite approach, in
which the vocal line
descends from soprano in
verse 1 to tenor in verse
2, with the second part
of verse 2 again resuming
the soprano register;
this is also the case in
Das Wandern from
Mullerlieder. Gretchen am
Spinnrade posed a unique
problem. Since the poem's
narrator is female, and
the poem represents an
expression of her longing
for her lover Faust,
variation of the vocal
line's register, strictly
speaking, would have been
impractical. For this
reason, the vocal line
remains in its original
register throughout,
relentlessly colliding
with the sixteenth-note
pattern of the
accompaniment. One
exception may be found in
the fifth and final verse
in mm. 93-112, at which
point the vocal line is
notated in a higher
register and doubled in
octaves. This sudden
textural change, one that
is readily audible, was a
strategic means to
underscore Gretchen's
mounting anxiety (My
bosom urges itself toward
him. Ah, might I grasp
and hold him! And kiss
him as I would wish, at
his kisses I should
die!). The transcription,
thus, becomes a vehicle
for maximizing the
emotional content of the
poem, an exceptional
undertaking with the
general intent of a
transcription. Registral
variation of the vocal
part also plays a crucial
role in the transcription
of Erlkonig. Goethe's
poem depicts the death of
a child who is
apprehended by a
supernatural Erlking, and
Schubert, recognizing the
dramatic nature of the
poem, carefully depicted
the characters (father,
son and Erlking) through
unique vocal writing and
accompaniment patterns:
the Lied is a dramatic
entity. Liszt, in turn,
followed Schubert's
characterization in this
literal transcription,
yet took it an additional
step by placing the
register of the father's
vocal line in the
baritone range, that of
the son in the soprano
range and that of the
Erlking in the highest
register, options that
would not have been
available in the version
for voice and piano.
Additionally, Liszt
labeled each appearance
of each character in the
score, a means for
guiding the performer in
interpreting the dramatic
qualities of the Lied. As
a result, the drama and
energy of the poem are
enhanced in this
transcription; as with
Gretchen am Spinnrade,
the transcriber has
maximized the content of
the original. Elaboration
may be found in certain
Lieder transcriptions
that expand the
performance to a level of
virtuosity not found in
the original; in such
cases, the transcription
approximates the
paraphrase. Schubert's Du
bist die Ruh, a paradigm
of musical simplicity,
features an uncomplicated
piano accompaniment that
is virtually identical in
each verse. In Liszt's
transcription, the
material is subjected to
a highly virtuosic
treatment that far
exceeds the original,
including a demanding
passage for the left hand
alone in the opening
measures and unique
textural writing in each
verse. The piece is a
transcription in
virtuosity; its art, as
Rosen noted, lies in the
technique of
transformation.
Elaboration may entail an
expansion of the musical
form, as in the extensive
introduction to Die
Forelle and a virtuosic
middle section (mm.
63-85), both of which are
not in the original. Also
unique to this
transcription are two
cadenzas that Liszt
composed in response to
the poetic content. The
first, in m. 93 on the
words und eh ich es
gedacht (and before I
could guess it), features
a twisted chromatic
passage that prolongs and
thereby heightens the
listener's suspense as to
the fate of the trout
(which is ultimately
caught). The second, in
m. 108 on the words
Betrogne an (and my blood
boiled as I saw the
betrayed one), features a
rush of
diminished-seventh
arpeggios in both hands,
epitomizing the poet's
rage at the fisherman for
catching the trout. Less
frequent are instances in
which the length of the
original Lied was
shortened in the
transcription, a tendency
that may be found with
certain strophic Lieder
(e.g., Der Leiermann,
Wasserflut and Das
Wandern). Another
transcription that
demonstrates Liszt's
readiness to modify the
original in the interests
of the poetic content is
Standchen, the seventh
transcription from
Schubert's
Schwanengesang. Adapted
from Act II of
Shakespeare's Cymbeline,
the poem represents the
repeated beckoning of a
man to his lover. Liszt
transformed the Lied into
a miniature drama by
transcribing the vocal
line of the first verse
in the soprano register,
that of the second verse
in the baritone register,
in effect, creating a
dialogue between the two
lovers. In mm. 71-102,
the dialogue becomes a
canon, with one voice
trailing the other like
an echo (as labeled in
the score) at the
distance of a beat. As in
other instances, the
transcription resembles
the paraphrase, and it is
perhaps for this reason
that Liszt provided an
ossia version that is
more in the nature of a
literal transcription.
The ossia version, six
measures shorter than
Schubert's original, is
less demanding
technically than the
original transcription,
thus representing an
ossia of transcription
and an ossia of piano
technique. The Schumann
Lieder transcriptions, in
general, display a less
imaginative treatment of
the source material.
Elaborations are less
frequently encountered,
and virtuosity is more
restricted, as if the
passage of time had
somewhat tamed the
composer's approach to
transcriptions;
alternatively, Liszt was
eager to distance himself
from the fierce
virtuosity of his early
years. In most instances,
these transcriptions are
literal arrangements of
the source material, with
the vocal line in its
original form combined
with the accompaniment,
which often doubles the
vocal line in the
original Lied. Widmung,
the first of the Schumann
transcriptions, is one
exception in the way it
recalls the virtuosity of
the Schubert
transcriptions of the
1830s. Particularly
striking is the closing
section (mm. 58-73), in
which material of the
opening verse (right
hand) is combined with
the triplet quarter notes
(left hand) from the
second section of the
Lied (mm. 32-43), as if
the transcriber were
attempting to reconcile
the different material of
these two sections.
Fruhlingsnacht resembles
a paraphrase by
presenting each of the
two verses in differing
registers (alto for verse
1, mm. 3-19, and soprano
for verse 2, mm. 20-31)
and by concluding with a
virtuosic section that
considerably extends the
length of the original
Lied. The original
tonalities of the Lieder
were generally retained
in the transcriptions,
showing that the tonality
was an important part of
the transcription
process. The infrequent
instances of
transposition were done
for specific reasons. In
1861, Liszt transcribed
two of Schumann's Lieder,
one from Op. 36 (An den
Sonnenschein), another
from Op. 27 (Dem roten
Roslein), and merged
these two pieces in the
collection 2 Lieder; they
share only the common
tonality of A major. His
choice for combining
these two Lieder remains
unknown, but he clearly
recognized that some
tonal variety would be
needed, for which reason
Dem roten Roslein was
transposed to C>= major.
The collection features
An den Sonnenschein in A
major (with a transition
to the new tonality),
followed by Dem roten
Roslein in C>= major
(without a change of key
signature), and
concluding with a reprise
of An den Sonnenschein in
A major. A three-part
form was thus established
with tonal variety
provided by keys in third
relations (A-C>=-A); in
effect, two of Schumann's
Lieder were transcribed
into an archetypal song
without words. In other
instances, Liszt treated
tonality and tonal
organization as important
structural ingredients,
particularly in the
transcriptions of
Schubert's Lieder cycles,
i.e. Schwanengesang,

ish comments:
Empuries is the result of
the interest Ruera showed
throughout his life for
the culture and music of
ancient Greece. As he
himself writes in the
introduction to the
composition: The motives
behind this work were
inspired by contemplating
and analysing the melos
of ancient Greece. The
few melodies that have
been discovered from
those far-off times
inspired the composer of
Empuries to create this
work, conceived with the
Greek modal system in
mind, and adapted to
modern instruments and
tastes. The tetrachord
and pentachords of these
forms are the very bases
of this work. The
descending drift of the
cadence, the harmonic
priority of the upper and
lower notes of the
tetrachords and the
displacement of these
chords to different
acoustic levels, make it
impossible to specify the
classic concept of a set
tonality which, within
the improvised musical
working of the piece,
leads to a naturally
intertonal or atonal
piece of music. Empuries
came to light in 1971,
when it won group A of
the Ciutat de Barcelona
prize. But one must, in
fact, go back to the
1930s to find its true
origins. Ruera made his
first foray into the
theme of ancient Greece
with the sardana,
Empuries, la grega, with
which he won first prize
in the Jocs Florals in
Girona, in 1931. Shortly
afterwards, he wrote a
piece of organ music
entitled Bucolics, in the
Greek modal style, which
was destroyed during the
Spanish civil war. Ruera
continued to work on the
theme and in 1936 he
presented his work Tres
moviments simfonics, for
a big band, inspired by
the ancient Greek modes,
at the XIV International
Festival of the ISCM held
in Barcelona. The work
was chosen to debut in
the festival's opening
concert on 19 April 1936
at Palacio de Bellas
Artes in Barcelona. In
1959, Ruera won the Pau
Casals Prize at the Jocs
Florals de la Llengua
Catalana, held at the
Sorbonne in Paris, for
his work, Empuries: poema
per a cobla i orquestra,
which would later become
the fourth movement of
Empuries. Nine years
later, in 1968, Barcelona
City Orchestra, conducted
by Antoni Ros Marba, gave
the first ever
performance of the
symphonic poem Pastoral,
written to be the first
movement of Empuries, in
Granollers. The final
step was when he finally
completed the work, won
the Ciutat de Barcelona
prize, opened in
Granollers on 2 May 1976
and recorded it for the
Columbia de Barcelona
label in 1977. Anna Maria

Comentario
s del Espanol: La
obra Empuries es fruto
del interes que el
maestro Ruera demostro a
lo largo de su vida por
la cultura y la musica de
la antigua Grecia. Como
el mismo escribe en la
cabecera de la
composicion: Los motivos
generadores de esta obra
estan inspirados en la
contemplacion y en el
analisis del melos de la
antigua Grecia. Las pocas
melodias que hasta el
momento se han podido
descubrir de aquellos
tiempos remotos sugieren
al autor de Empuries la
realizacion de esta obra,
concebida pensando en el
sistema modal griego,
adaptado a los
instrumentos y gustos
modernos. Los tetracordes
y pentacordes de dichas
modalidades son las
celulas en las que se
basa la obra. El sentido
descendiente de la
cadencia, la prioridad
armonica de la notas
extremas de los
tetracordes y el
desplazamiento de estos
acordes a varias alturas
acusticas, hacen que no
sea posible precisar el
clasico concepto de una
tonalidad determinada y
que lleven, dentro del
funcionamiento
contrapuntistico, a una
musica naturalmente
intertonal o atonal.
Empuries vio la luz en el
ano 1971, ganando el
Premio Ciutat de
Barcelona, grupo A, pero
en realidad tenemos que
retroceder hasta los anos
30 para encontrar sus
verdaderos origenes. La
primera incursion en el
tema de la antigua Gracia
la hizo con la sardana
Empuries, la grega, con
la que gano el primer
premio en los Jocs
Florals de Gerona del ano
1931. Poco despues
escribio una pieza para
organo titulada Bucolics,
en el estilo modal
griego, que fue destruida
durante la Guerra Civil
espanola. Ruera continuo
trabajando en el tema y
en el ano 1936 presento
su obra Tres moviments
simfonics, en version
para gran banda,
inspirada en las antiguas
modalidades griegas, en
el XIV Festival
Internacional de la SIMC
que se celebro en
Barcelona. La obra fue
escogida para ser
estrenada en el concierto
inaugural de dicho
festival, el 19 de abril
de 1936, en el Palacio de
Bellas Artes de
Barcelona. En el 1959,
Ruera gano el Premio Pau
Casals en los Jocs
Florals de la Llengua
Catalana celebrados en la
Sorbona de Paris con la
obra Empuries: poema per
a cobla i orquestra, que
sera con el paso del
tiempo el cuarto
movimiento de Empuries.
Nueve anos mas tarde, en
1968, la Orquestra Ciutat
de Barcelona, bajo la
direccion de Antoni Ros
Marba, interpreto en
Granollers la primera
audicion del poema
sinfonico Pastoral,
pensado como primer
movimiento de Empuries.
El ultimo eslabon fue
terminar definitivamente
la obra, ganar el Premio

ish comments: My
dedication to the string
instruments has been a
constant throughout my
compositional career and
I knew that sooner or
later the time would come
to compose a concerto for
violin and orchestra.
That moment came in the
autumn of 2002 and after
ten months of
uninterrupted work I
finished it in August of
2003. It is a work
structured similarly to
the traditional
concertos. An important
impetus for the
elaboration of my
concerto was due to the
ill-fated violinist
Ginette Neveu. Her
version of Sibelius'
Concerto has always
stayed with me. For this
reason the first
movement,
Moderato-Allegro, begins
with a contemplative
atmosphere similar to
that of Sibelius'
Concerto in which the
principal thematic ideas
appear tentatively. These
ideas, two rhythmic and
two melodic, are
reaffirmed through a
broad development that
culminates in an
orchestral fullness. A
calm, mysterious passage
recalls the introduction
and after becoming
blurred, three bars burst
in leading to the rapid
section of the movement.
Soloist and orchestra
engage in a dialectic
struggle of a dramatic
nature. The agitation
subsides leaving only a
tranquil and suggestive
clarinet phrase. This
will be taken up by the
soloist who leads up to
the movement's most
dramatic moment playing
an accelerating triplet
figure supported by an
orchestral pedal in
crescendo. From here the
soloist's cadenza emerges
beginning with soft
double notes. It finishes
with an ascending
progression and the
soloist settles into the
high register to elicit
the orchestra's
intervention in a soft
and transfigured
atmosphere. Once
internalised the second
movement, Adagio poco
sostenuto e leggero
begins. It has a solemn
character and opens with
two trumpet calls
answered by the
violoncellos and the
contrabasses. The violin
soloist introduces and
plays two nostalgic
themes, the first in the
low register and the
second, more extensive,
in the middle register.
The soft and delicate
Misterioso e leggero
begins with the violin
singing on high. The
rhythm of the constant
quaver figures gradually
accelerates until the
soloist provokes a
dramatic full orchestra
as in a cadenza. Once
again, the Calmo, in
which the soloist with
less and less orchestral
attire serenely bids
farewell. A rising series
of double stops by the
soloist serves to
initiate the
Finale-Scherzo. In 6/8
rhythm and with the
character of a rondo it
carries us along in a
carefree, virtuosic
ambiance. The principal
motives, brief and
concise, emerge from the
happy, playful theme
presented by the soloist.
With an intricate
progression of rapid
sixths in double stops it
reaches a tense and
somewhat combative
moment. However this
resolves itself in a
diminuendo that the
soloist peacefully takes
up with the notes re-la
to commence the cadenza.
This culminates in a
series of tied notes to
reintroduce the principal
theme. A moment of
melodic suspension serves
as a farewell before the
brief and jovial final
coda. --The
author
Comentari
os del Espanol: A lo
largo de mi carrera
compositiva mi dedicacion
a los instrumentos de
cuerda ha sido constante
y sabia que, tarde o
temprano, llegaria el
momento de componer un
concierto para violin y
orquesta. Este llego en
otono de 2002 y, tras
diez meses de trabajo
ininterrumpido, lo
termine en agosto de
2003. Se trata de una
obra estructurada de
manera similar a los
conciertos tradicionales.
Un importante impulso a
la elaboracion de mi
concierto lo debo al
recuerdo de la malograda
violinista Ginette Neveu.
Su version del concierto
de Sibelius ha
permanecido siempre
dentro de mi. Por ese
motivo, el primer
movimiento
Moderato-Allegro se
inicia con una atmosfera
contemplativa cercana a
la del mencionado
Concierto, en la que
aparecen cautamente las
principales ideas
tematicas. Con un amplio
desarrollo se llega a un
lleno orquestal en el que
estas ideas -dos ritmicas
y dos melodicas- quedan
reafirmadas. Un pasaje
calmo y misterioso
rememora la introduccion.
Tras desdibujarse,
irrumpen tres compases
que nos llevan a la parte
rapida del movimiento.
Solista y orquesta
establecen un combate
dialectico de caracter
dramatico. La inquietud
desaparece hasta una
tranquila e insinuante
frase del clarinete. Esta
sera recogida por el
solista, quien, a base de
una figuracion de
tresillos cada vez mas
rapidos apoyada por un
pedal de la orquesta in
crescendo, conduce hacia
el momento mas dramatico
del movimiento. De aqui
nace la cadenza del
solista, que se incia con
suaves notas dobles.
Finaliza con una
progresion ascendente y
el solista se coloca en
el registro agudo para
llamar la intervencion de
la orquesta dentro de una
atmosfera suave y
transfigurada.
Interiorizado es el
segundo movimiento Adagio
poco sostenuto e leggero.
Con dos llamadas de las
trompas respondidas por
los violonchelos y
contrabajos inicia el
Adagio de caracter grave.
El violin solista
introduce y canta dos
temas nostalgicos. El
primero en el registro
grave y el segundo, mas
amplio, en el medio.
Inicia el Misterioso e
leggero, de caracter
suave y delicado. Con el
violin cantando en agudo.
La constante figuracion
de corcheas acelerara
poco a poco el ritmo
hasta que el solista a
modo de cadenza provocara
un dramatico lleno
orquestal. De nuevo el
Calmo, donde el solista,
cada vez con menos ropaje
orquestal, se despide
serenamente. Una subida
de dobles cuerdas a cargo
del solista sirve para
iniciar el
Finale-Scherzo. Este, en
ritmo de 6/8 y con
caracter de rondo, nos
transporta en un clima
virtuosistico y
despreocupado. Del tema
alegre y jugueton
presentado por el solista
nacen los principales
motivos, breves y
concisos. Con una
intrincada sucesion de
rapidas sextas en doble
cuerda se llega a un
momento crispado y algo
combativo que, sin
embargo, se resolvera en
un diminuendo que el
solista recoge
apaciblemente con las
notas re-la para inciar
la cadenza. Esta culmina
con un suave rosario de
notas en ligado para
introducir de nuevo el
tema principal. Un
momento de suspension
melodica sirve como
despido antes de la breve
y jovial coda final. La
obra fue estrenada el 23
de septiembre de 2005 en
el Teatre Monumental de
Madrid por la Orquesta
Sinfonica de RTVE con
Markus Placci de solista
y Uwe Mund de director.

8.25x11.75x0.39
inches. I have a
great fondness for the
lower string instruments:
I am a bass player, my
mother is a cellist, as
are both my daughters; my
own ensemble includes two
violas, a cello and a
bass, and for the
instrumentation of my
opera Medea I omit the
entire violin section
from the orchestra. As I
have written a number of
works for solo instrument
or voice with orchestra I
welcomed the opportunity
to write a concerto for
cello and orchestra and
especially one which
focuses particularly on
the instrument's lyrical
qualities. Although the
piece is in one
continuous movement, and
the soloist is playing
almost without a break,
it nevertheless falls
into distinct sections
which are recognisable by
a shift of tempo as well
as by a change in the
music's character.One of
the early ideas Julian
Lloyd Webber and I
discussed was that it
might form a companion
piece to one of the Haydn
concertos. Given my
friendship with some
members of the English
Chamber Orchestra and my
awareness of their
repertoire, this
suggested a number of
particular musical
references. The subtitle
to the work, for example,
combines the subtitles of
two idiosyncratic Haydn
symphonies and I allude
to them in different ways
but chiefly through
orchestration: for The
Philosopher by including
a section in the concerto
where the orchestration
resembles that of the
symphony's first movement
(pairs of English and
French horns, muted
violins and unmuted lower
strings); for The
Farewell, by the
progressive reduction in
the orchestration towards
the end. Indeed, apart
from the orchestral tutti
in the last few bars, the
last pages of the score
are virtually for string
quartet. The subtitle
also refers to my own
background as a
philosophy graduate...The
piece was commissioned by
Philips Classics for
Julian Lloyd Webber and
is dedicated to him.The
first performance was
given by Julian Lloyd
Webber and the English
Chamber Orchestra
conducted by James Judd,

of 2 scores The Garden of
My Father's House (1973)
is a dramatic rhapsody
for violin and clarinet
duo. The composer wrote
the following: I composed
THE GARDEN OF MY FATHER'S
HOUSE in 1972 in memory
of my father, who was my
first music teacher.
Although he played many
instruments and loved to
sing, he could not read a
note of music. When I was
very young he would sing
Gypsy songs, Yiddish
folk-songs and Rumanian
tunes to me and I would
play them back on my
clarinet, often with
ornaments and variations.
Sometimes he would
accompany me on the
piano; he had a few
favorite chords which
always seemed to pop up
no matter what the tune.
The piece is a musical
ritual, based on a
C-sharp drone, or pedal
note, that is heard
without interruption,
across several ranges,
throughout the piece. The
violin's drone tremolos,
often combined with
perfect fifths and
quarter-tone tunings,
imply the key of Csharp
minor. The violin part is
always rubato —
lyrical, expressive and
frequently very
passionate. But, most
importantly, the violin
is always tonal. The
clarinet, on the other
hand, is atonal, its
pitches drawn from the
twelve-tone row that I
used to write my Cycles
of Infinities. The style
of the clarinet is
contemporary, using
wide-range intervals,
biting accents and
unusual instrumental
effects, including
fluttertonguing and
quarter-tone trills. In
combining the
'contrasting' roles of
the two instruments, I
sought to create a
musical ritual-game that
would draw energy and
bits of information from
the polarized
instruments. The language
of the piece calls the
listener's attention to
the cogent features of
both instrumental
personalities in a manner
that is somewhat similar
to the way in which
Yiddish combines German
and Hebrew. The drone
becomes more and more
magnetic and begins to
join the parts together
until they become one in
the final C-sharp
unison. $22.95 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 2 to 3 weeks | | |

ISBN 9790004187692. 12
x 9 inches. This
edition is the result of
Harald Vogel's many years
of practice as an
organist and
musicologist. The music
text is based on a
reevaluation of 17th- and
18th-century manuscripts
containing the free organ
and keyboard works by
Buxtehude. They
originated during a
transitional phase
between the traditional
letter tablature and the
staff notation still in
use today. Since many
works have survived only
in transcriptions for
staff notation, the
editor was confronted
with a high error rate,
which he carefully
analyzes in the
Einzelanmerkungen. During
the preparation of the
edition, the editor
always kept sight of the
performance practice, but
still, the image of the
sources is never
distorted (e. g. by
superfluous rests,
beaming not conforming to
the sources and the
unhistorical adjustment
of time signatures) and
stays very close to the
compositional notation,
the letter tablature. The
flexible use of three
staves and the
differentiated
distribution of the
voices on the staves
allow for an
approximation in reading
conventions of historical
notation with its
resulting information
about hand division.
Grouping the free organ
repertoire into works
with obbligato pedal and
works for manuals, this
edition is organized in
two volumes. The first
subvolume (I/1, EB 9304)
contains the Preface and
the Preludes, whereas the
second subvolume (I/2, EB
9305) contains Toccatas,
Ostinato works,
alternative versions and
a comprehensive Critical
Commentary (in German
only). Volume II (EB
9306) contains
Buxtehude's free organ
and keyboard works
(manualiter) with the
corresponding texts
(Preface and Critical
Commentary).Until 1971,
Harald Vogel worked on a
dissertation (with Georg
von Dadelsen, Hamburg) on
Die Fuge um Bach. Besides
the description of the
inclusion of triple
measures into the C
notation and the
irregularities of the
voice mutation in the
polyphonic structures,
this also included a
discussion about the
justification of the
inner textual criticism.
With the inner textual
criticism, deviations in
parallel passages are
unified. The North German
fugue style, reaching a
peak in Buxtehude's work,
is characterized by a
constant diversity of
details in subject and
polyphonic progressions.
One of the indicators of
the fantastic style is
the dissolution of the
polyphonic structures at
the ends of the fugues,
evident in Buxtehude's
work.In this edition, a
musical text is presented
that avoids the
uniformity of detail not
conforming to the
sources. However, there
are many examples of
transcription and cursory
errors, which are
analyzed in a methodical
systematic manner. About
the editor: As an
organist, professor,
organ expert, and
scholar, Harald Vogel has
rendered outstanding
services to the
interpretation of early
music and especially to
historical performance
practice concerning the
organ for decades. He has
received numerous awards,
including an ECHO Klassik
as Instrumentalist of the
Year (2012), honorary
doctorates from Lulea
University of Technology
(Sweden, 2008) and
Oberlin College (USA,
2014), as well as the
Buxtehude Prize of the
City of Lubeck (2018).
Harald Vogel is the
author and editor of
numerous scholarly
publications and
editions. Through his
lifelong performance
practice, he can look
back on an extensive
discography, including
the complete recording of
Buxtehude's organ works,
which he recorded in
various locations with
historical organ
instruments of the North
German organ building
tradition in Scandinavia,
North Germany and the
Netherlands.
