Program NotesOverture to Russian and Ludmilla Glinka (1804-1850)

.. The Russian, Glinka, was one of the earliest Nationalists. Nationalism represents,In a sense, the self-assertive denial of a cultural inferiority. It is a form of artistic selfconsciousness. A Nationalist musician does not come into being as soon as folk orindigenous materials are employed, but when his or her self-expression unveils thenation's soul in music. It requires a composer of genius.

The overture to RussIan and Ludmilla is not typical of the opera for which it is named.Neither' its Italian brightness and energy, nor its universal humor and melodiousnessare truly representative of Glinka's essential nationalism.

Valse Triste Sibelius (1865-1959)

Jan Sibelius is the first Finnish composer to achieve wide renown. A national"feeling" enters into his early compositions, even the shorter ones such as the one youare about to hear. Due, in great part, to its instrumentation and tempo, this waltz elicitsthe warmth and color of sadness suggested by its title.

Songs of a Wayfarer (Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen) .....Mahler (1860-1911)

These songs, originally a sequence of six, depict a wayfaring craftsman who hada great sorrow and goes out into the world wandering aimlessly.

The verses, written by Mahler, are neither Lieder, arias, nor depictions of dramaticscenes, yet they have elements of all of these. While retaining a folklike vocal line, Mahlerunderpinned them with a richly-colored accompaniment, full of wit, agility, and abruptmodulations. The English translation of the songs follows.

1. My sweetheart makes wedding preparations to marry another.I go to my dreary room and weep for love. The birds sing, "Whata beautiful world, cheer up." Sing no more, birds. Bloom no more,flowers. Spring has already flown.

2. This morning as I crossed a dew covered meadow, a merry finchsang to me, "Hello there! Good morning! What a beautiful world."The bluebells tones with their bells, "Kling, kling. What a beautifulworld." The whole world began to glisten. Can my happiness everreturn? No, this can never be.

3. I have a burning knife in my breast that cuts so deep. It cuts deepinto joy and happiness. It gives neither rest nor sleep-in daytimeor at night. If I look into the heavens, I see two blue eyes. WhenI go through the fields, I see her blond hair caressed by the wind.When I awake from my dreams, I hear her silvery laughter. - HowI long to lie on the black bier in eternal sleep.

4. The two blue eyes of my sweetheart have sent me into a lonelyworld. Why did you gaze upon me now I have eternal sorrow andgrief. As I departed at night, no one bade me farewell. By the roadstood a linden tree, there I slept peacefully for the first time coveredby its blossoms, and forgot life's suffering. All was well againlove and sorrow and world and dream.

ThisRussian-born composer (St. Petersburg) rated the SLEEPING BEAUTY !:is o~eofhis best works. This suite consists of selections from the original three-act Balletwhichwas composed in 1888-1889 andfirst performed January, 1890 in St. Petersburg.

The dances of the ballet are well-scaled and have marginal relevance to the dramaitself. A number of them are character pieces for figures from fairystories.TschaikoV'lskydisplays a great gift for characterization and musical pacing to the sequence ofthedramatic events.

IntheSilence of the Night, Op.4, #3 .Lilacs, Op.21, #5 . ~ ........•..... ~ ; Rachmaninoff (1873-1943)

Rachdmaninoff's songs and pianoforte pieces are perhaps among his best known,most representative, and most appealing compositions. They demand great skill on thepart of both vocalist and pianist.

In these songs Rachmaninoff achieves a perfect balance between voice andaccompaniment, using the orchestra to echo the sentiments of the text. Some of theparts are, in effect, separate instrumental studies of the poems and it is significant thatthe composer later transcribed one of the finest, "Lilacs" for piano solo.

Spurred by his success, Rachmaninoff composed "In the Silence ..."-withease-during the summer and autumn, together with the Opus 8 songs. "In the Silenceof the Night" has a sustained quality with very effective climaxes. It demands good command of high pianissimos, while "Lilacs" is animated and very delicate.

In the silence of the nightOh, in the silent night, I still can hear your bitter, cruel words andfeel your glance. The beauty of your smile languishes but sooncommands. I recall the vague and troubled thoughts and themurmured promises which were broken. Rapture enflames mybeing and I cry aloud. With longing heart I cry that night may knowyour name.

LilacsThe sun rises upon the blooming lilac trees and I inhale the freshmorning air. I wander in search of happiness in the cool shade.Only a few people find the joy they seek, mine is where thelilacs bloom.

Zueignung, Op. 10, #1Cacilie, Op. 27, #2 Richard Strauss (1864-1949)

Highly acclaimed as a composer and conductor, Richard Strauss had already beenhailed before the age of 21, as successor to Brahms and Wagner. He was greatlyacclaimed as a composer of tone poems and of operas. Unfortunately only a comparatively small percentage of his 200-plus songs is well known.

Many of Strauss's songs (Lieder), composed 1885-1906, were written for his wife,Pauline de Ahna, a professional singer. The style of his songs, using orchestral accompaniment, lean toward that of Berlioz-Wagner-Mahler. He candidly describes his methodof composition:

Musical ideas have prepared themselves in me-God knows whyand when, as it were, the barrel is full, a song appears in the twinking of an eye as soon as I come across a poem more-or-Iess corresponding to the subject of an 'imaginary' song ...If if find a poemcorresponding to the subject which exists in my subconscious mind,then the creative urge has to be re-channelled to the setting of someother poem which I think lends itself to music ...

P.S. Lerner's father founded the highly successful Alan Jay Lerner Shops!

Zueignung (Dedication)Y~u know, sweetheart,. that I languish away from you, that lovebnngs heartache; for thiS, thanks. Once I was free and drank wineto my heart's content and you blessed the cup; for this, thanks. Youexpelled my evil spirits till I became what I had never beenbefore-holy, loving you; for this, thanks.

Cacilie (Cecily)If only you knew what it is to dream of kisses, of walking and restingwith a beloved, of looking into each other's eyes, of caresses andchatter, you would soften your heart. If you knew the angiush oflonely nights, when the storms howl round and no one speaks acomforting word to a strife-weary heart, you would come to me. Ifyou knew what life could be when it breathes the air of the gods,forgetting the world and soaring on wings of light to divine heights,you would be mine.

The melodic Iyricisrn of Strauss's sytle bursts forth in his setting of Opus 10, (1885).The passionate love song, "Cacilie", was orchestrated in 1897.

Strauss cannot be denied his greatness despite his humorous modestself-evaluation: . '

I may not be a first-rate composer, but I am a first-class second-ratecomposer.

Program notes by S. Margaret Ann Willging

Medley from GIGI Lerner and Lowe

Librettist, Lerner said of GIGI: "I did the screenplay for "An American in Paris"which won an Academy award. I also wrote "Royal Wedding" for Fred Astaire ... but~IGI w~s special." At the 1958 Acade~y Awards? GIGI won more Oscars than any otherpicture In history. Lerner collaborated With Fredenck Lowe, making it into a Musical whichin 1974 won a Tony award for the Best Score.

. "!"he screenpl':lY and lyrics are based on the novel by Colette. The setting is soPanslan that Pans IS treated almost as a character of the play. The film directly presentsthe ~Iamourof Maxims and the Bois de Boulogne, Trouville, the sidewalk cafes and thePalals de Glace.

Program NotesOverture to ITALIAN IN ALGIERS Rossini (1792-1868)

Rossini had very little formal musical training. It is said that his first music teacherplayed the piano with only two fingers, and went to sleep during lessons! A move toBologna meant better teachers. Remarkably talented, he learned several instrumentsand his fresh soprano voice was in much demand, mainly in churches.

From 1810-1850 Rossini composed almost 40 operas, sometimes at the rate of fivea year. He achieved performances at Italy's two leading theaters: Naples and Milan.

In 1813 Rossini obtained his first grand success with the opera, TANCREDI. Thiswas followed by THE ITALIAN IN ALGIERS, a comic opera produced in Venice. The success of his operas was in part due to giving the orchestra a more important andexpressive role than Italian composers usually did. He may have been following theexample of Mozart. A music critic called the Italian in Algiers with its echoes of Haydn,Mozart and Cimarosa,

Kevin has a younger sister who is studying piano, and finds time to be on theSt. Barnabas swim team and basketball team, as well as play trombone inthe band.

JAY ANDRESNarrator

Mr. Andres is a staff announcer for Radio StationWNIB-FM, a station dedicated to the presentation of music of the classical format. Jay beganhis career in radio almost immediately upongraduating from high school, starting with theonly station in Marinette, Wisconsin in 1941. In ..1944 he entered the U.S. Air Force and waseventually stationed in England as a B-24Bomber Pilot. Following his service tenure, heentered Marquette University, in his home townof Milwaukee, to study Journalism. He becamestaff announcer for Radio Station WBBM in

1953, hosting the "MusiC'TiI Dawn" show for American Airlines. Following, in1968, he spent 15 years with WGN as late night and early morning announcer,with such shows as "Tunes from Talman" and "Great Music from Chicago,"the latter which he inherited upon the passing of another late night musicstation emcee, Franklin McCormick. He has now been with the FM radiostation, WNIB for over four years. Jay lives in Lake Forest, is married and has7 children as well as 11 grandchildren.

"one of the glories of Rossini's youthful years when melodiesbubbled as birds sing, when his slyness and his incomparablewit had all of their joyous recklessness."

The Overture has survived precisely because it crystallizes those qualities.

BALLET MUSIC Glazounov (1865-1936)

Born in St. Petersburg, Russia, Alexander Glazounov grew up in a home where "wehad a great deal of music, and everything we played remained firmly in my memory... I could construct, even to the smallest details, all that I had heard earlier in anevening." His aptitude for theory was equally exceptional. Before he was 13 years oldhe was writing chamber and orchestral music. He became an apt pupil of RimskyKorsakov in 1880. Together with Korsakov, Glazounov reconstructed the unfinished majorwork of the Russian Borodin, PRINCE IGOR - all from sketches, and played and sungexcerpts of the work.

Although Glazounov was more a conventional composer, as professor of the St.Petersburg Conservatory, he encouraged the Russian Dimitri Shostakovich, andrepresented the rising generation of nationalists "continuing toward those 'new shores'first pointed out by Balikirev and his disciples."

THE SNOWMAN Howard Blake

The Snowman is based on the children's book of the same name written andillustrated by the English author, Raymond Briggs. It is a gentle, fanciful story withoutwords which tells its story using soft, pastel pencil crayons.

The story is about a young boy who buillds a snowman that comes to life onemagical midnight. Invited inside the house, the snowman goes exploring with his newfound friend. The boy introduces the snowman to the marvels ofT\/, the sleeping parentswith their teeth in a cup, and the snowman clowns around in the father's clothes..

The 2nd Symphony, which is often called his "Pastoral" Symphony, is clear in itsscoring and rhythmic structure. The instrumentation is unusually transparent. One ofthe great beauties of Brahms' style lies in his manipulation of rhythms to result in freeflowing lyric expression and to challenge the attentive listener.

Then it's turnabout when the snowman spots a motorcycle outside the window andtakes the boy for a ride through the wintry woods. Later, the snowman takes the boy'shand and flies northward through the snow-filled skies, accompanied by a hauntinglybeautiful song.

Arriving at the land of the Northern Lights, they discover a holiday party in progress,attended by a festive crowd of snowmen and presided over by none other thanSanta Claus.

After much merrymaking, Santa presents the boy with a gift - a lovely blue scarf.Then the boy and the snowman fly home. The final scene in the morning is indescribablytouching.

Mr. Briggs won the Dutch Silver Pen Award, the Lewis Carroll Shelf Award, and theBoston Globe Horn Book Award for the Snowman.

The 2nd Symphony is considered the most cheerful of his larger compositions. Twoof his most seductive melodies appear in the first and third movements. The entireallegretto, a theme and variation form, enjoys a popularity of its own.

The adagio (second) movement effects a serene and beautiful mood through thecomposer's disregard of bar lines.

The third movement is folklike and somewhat angular: a short triple-meter allegretto,twice interrupted by contrasting "trios," one in fast duple meter, another in fast triplemeter.

The fourth movement provides the concentration and brilliance which the symphony had lacked up to this point. Themes are exploited in its long opening section.Brahms rises to new heights of instrumental effectiveness in the final closing section.The moods of the earlier movements are here transformed into a final mood of triumph.

The video, which used the same delicate sequence of color and line, has been airedon wnw, and won the British Academy Award for Best Children's Drama and the ALANotable Film Award.

Symphony No.2 ............................•.•....Brahms (1833-1897)

The power and convincing emotional effect of Brahms' larger works are achievedthrough the perfect balance of heart and brain. Everything is the result of consideredjudgment, keen knowledge of the effect of details upon the listener, appreciating thatart results from the meaningful manipulation of materials.

Intimidated by the success of Beethoven's symphonies and an innate lack of selfconfidence, Brahms burned or destroyed much of his total compositional output. Aconservatism and mixture of warmth and restraint directly relate to the character andpersonal experiences of Brahms.

Brahms' four symphonies are the most eloquent and decisive commentary on theprophecy of Robert Schumann. In hailing Brahms as the 'Messiah of music, he who wasto come' Schumann suggested him as the successor of the great classical composers,specifically, Beethoven.

The first and scond symphonies of Brahms - differing markedly in content - werecompleted close to each other: (1876 and 1877).

Johannes Brahms, who was born in Hamburg, Germany, remained faithful to themethods, purposes, and expression of the classical forms of l;3eethoven (the Bonn-bornGerman who had died less than a decade before Brahm's birth.)

Mr. Deal arranges his own sacred hymn transcriptions and has releaseda professional recording entitled, "The Piano Artistry of G.Richard Deal."

Program NotesOverture "In Springtime" Karl Goldmark (1830-1915)

The Hungarian-born Karl Goldmark-already at the age of 17-was admitted to the ViennaConservatory of Music where he studied violin and composition. He later had two years of studyin Budapest. However, he returned to Vienna at the age of 30 where he established himself asteacher of piano, composer, and concert artist.

Goldmark's fame was derived from his first opera. His importance lies chiefly in his operaticworks. His musical language was determined by Hungarian folk culture, by his childhood memoriesof the synagogue and by the multiplicity of musical influences from Mendelssohn and Wagner toearlier idioms of Impressionism.

Karl Goldmark's works contain passages of wonderful tone-color and a glowing melodic stylerich in sequences. In some of his instrumental works he sometimes used and even surpassedLisztian and Wagnerian musical language.

The Overture to "1m Fruehling" (IN SPRINGTIME), Opus 36 was composed in 1888.

Piano Concerto No.2, Opus 18 Sergei Rachmaninoff (1873-1943)

Rachmaninoff, the fourth of six children, was first taught by his mother and later studied inMoscow. At his home he rubbed elbows with world-famous musicians as Anton Rubenstein andTchaikovsky. At the outbreak of the Russian Revolution, Rachmaninoff decided to concentrate ona concert career. By the middle of 1918 he prepared concerts basically programmed of hisown compositions.

No less than three attractive offers reached him from America. Although not accepting theseoffers specifically, he was confident in settling in America, where he quickly rose to an eminencewhich he maintained until his death. He made between 50-100 appearances every year throughoutEurope, the United Kingdom, and the United States. He died in his Beverly Hills home in 1943 afew days before his 70th birthday.

The Second Piano Concerto was first played in Moscow in incomplete form in 1900. Thisconcerto in C Minor-together with NO.1 in D minor, is an outstanding contribution to pianoliterature. It has proven an attractive vehicle for even the youngest generation of interpreters. Arefined performance can still rediscover much more than superficial beauty in the colorful score,its broad lines, glorious melodies, and exciting orchestral support.

The steady measured tread of the first movement, the almost immobile, dreaming melodies ofthe second movement, the apotheosis of the principal theme at the end of the finale; - all theseand many other memorable features have combined to grant the work a lasting popUlarity similarto the A minor Concerto of Edvard Grieg and Concerto No.1 of Tchaikovsky.

Rachmaninoff has left us a whole library of piano compositions rich in melodic invention,harmonic warmth and unsought effectiveness.

Rudolf Ganz (who died in Chicago in 1972 at the age of 95) says this of his close friend andcontemporary, Rachmaninoff:

Those of us who knew Rachmaninoff learnedto respect his incorruptible artisticintegrity as highly as we admire hiscreative and pianistic genius.

THE ORCHESTRA GRATEFULLY ACKNOWLEDGESTHE FOLLOWING RECENT GIFTS:

Andalucia Suite •.....••...••.......•.•...•..•......Ernesto Lecuona (1896-1963)

This outstanding Cuban composer graduated from the National Conservatory in Havana in1913. He was born into a musical family. He made several tours of the United States as the leaderof a dance band, Lecuona's Cuban Boys. For some years he lived in New York where he wrote formusicals, films, and the radio. In his concerts he usually performed his songs and dances for piano,as well as light pieces by other late 19th century and early 20th century Cuban composers. Hissalon piano pieces using "white", peasant, and Afro-Cuban rhythms, found wide favor.

Lecuona's beautiful melodies became very popular in the United States; most popular is his"Malaguena" from the suite you will hear at this concert.

Hungarian Rhapsody No.2 ...•.....•.•...........••....... Franz Liszt (1811-1886)

Liszt-like Karl Goldmark-was Hungarian-born. This child prodigy was presented by his fatherbefore an assemblage of Hungarian magnates at one of the Esterhazy palaces where the fatherwas employed as a steward and an amateur cellist. (This fact may recall similar actions of LeopoldMozart in promoting and presenting his son, Wolfgang, to the Viennese royalty.)

Liszt also had "Viennese connections," for, after 1820, the family moved to Vienna whereFranz-as he later acknowledged-laid the foundations of his legendary technique during two yearsof study with Carl Czerny.

Because Liszt incorporated Hungarian gypsy band music into his compositions, a misconception of Hungarian folk art music persisted up until the time of Bartok (1881-1945).

Medley from SOUTH PACIFIC ....•••..........•...••••Richard Rodgers (1902-1979)

The prolific collaborators Richard Rodgers (music) and Oscar Hammerstein II (lyrics) openedtheir popular musical SOUTH PACIFIC at the Majestic Theatre in New York on April 7, 1949. It starredMary Martin and Ezio Pinza in the leading roles. The musical ran for almost Five years on Broadway,and it was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for drama. Also, it was the first time that the committee hadincluded a composer in the prize.

The story-an adaptation of a story, "Our Heroine" in James Michener's TALES OF THESOUTH PACIFIC-had to do with the unlikely attraction between Nellie Forbush, a naive Navy nursefrom Little Rock, and Emile de Becque, a worldly French planter living on a Pacific island, whofall in love. De Becque accompanies Lt. Joe Cable on a dangerous mission behind Japanese lines,from which only de Becque returns.
