a note from riccardo muti zell music director

The word emotional is not enough to express what it is to be reunited with my musical family, my friends. Music is not only a profession for us; it is our mission. It touches our souls and activates our intellectual curiosity. It improves the health of our minds and, in so doing, cultivates the health of our society. As musicians, our work is never finished. We know the notes, but it is what is behind the notes that is most important: a mystery that will never be discovered but one always worth pursuing. This is why we return to the works of the great composers and explore new music—both “ I T IS WHAT IS BEHIND THE NOTES contemporary music and music that has been neglected and merits our attention. THAT IS MOST These different voices express aspects of our humanity that should be heard, for we IMPORTANT.” all seek the spiritual healing of culture. We live in a modern world where the value of human connection must be celebrated. This season will be the beginning of a new future for the Orchestra, for Chicago, for the world.

a note from the chair and the president

We are delighted to welcome you to Symphony Center for the Chicago Symphony Orchestra’s 131st season. For musicians and audience alike, hearing the powerful sound of the full orchestra again within these walls symbolizes a profound and longed-for return to cultural life. Leading this homecoming is Riccardo Muti, the CSO’s Zell Music Director. Happy to be reuniting with the musicians in person, as you can read in Phillip Huscher’s article on page 6, Muti returns to Chicago to perform works that showcase the strengths of their artistic collaboration. His three weeks of opening concerts feature beloved works by Beethoven, Brahms, and Tchaikovsky, as well as compositions receiving their first CSO performances. These opening programs set the tone for a season designed to be a joyful reunion and a celebration of beautiful sound, as well as a resounding of all voices. In addition to concerts with Muti, the Orchestra is joined by distinguished guest conductors and soloists, including the CSO’s new Artist-in-Residence Hilary Hahn. CSO Concertmaster Robert Chen and Principal Cello John Sharp also appear as soloists this fall. Special programmatic focal points this fall include the world premieres of CSO-commissioned works by Magnus Lindberg and Gabriela Lena Frank, as well as performances marking centenary moments of the composers Sergei Prokofiev and Astor Piazzolla— anniversaries celebrated on both CSO and Symphony Center Presents concerts. The Symphony Center Presents series welcomes violinist Leonidas Kavakos and pianist Yuja Wang in a duo recital, and pianists Lang Lang and Daniil Trifonov in solo performances. Quintetto Astor Piazzolla makes its Symphony Center debut to celebrate its namesake’s anniversary. In addition, Thomas Wilkins returns to the podium to conduct the Civic Orchestra of Chicago and CSO for Kids concerts. November 1 marks the opening program of the CSO’s MusicNOW, curated by the recently appointed Mead Composer-in-Residence Jessie Montgomery. Thank you for once again making live music part of your life, and for your unyielding support during the pandemic. We promise a season of memorable performances that will heighten your senses, lift your spirits, and collectively enrich our lives.

Family Reunion Riccardo Muti, now in his twelfth season as music director of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, returns to his musical family in Chicago By Phillip Huscher

n September 19, when Riccardo Muti arrived at O’Hare International Airport, where for years he has entertained the surprising questions of customs agents (“Are you a dancer?”), he had been away from Chicago for 574 days. Even at a time when everything about the life of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra was unprecedented, such a protracted separation of the music director and his musicians was exceptional, and Muti’s return had long been awaited,

arguably by no one more than Muti himself. “The word is emotional,” Muti said in anticipation over the summer, “but it’s not enough to express the moment when I will be onstage and have again my entire musical family—and my friends, because in all these years, the musicians have been my friends also.” He would try, he said, to give the impression that this estrangement had not existed—that it had been only days since he last led the Orchestra, in an urgent, impassioned

performance of Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony that in fact took place on February 23, 2020. But already, by mid-July, only days before celebrating his eightieth birthday, Muti knew that despite his lifelong reputation as a man who does not show his emotions, he would be unable to hide “how much I love the Chicago Symphony, the musicians, the hall, the city.” In those nineteen months away from Chicago, Muti slackened his interaction with musicmaking, but never let up. Unflagging dedication is one of the hallmarks of his career—a life, he says, that has been so consumed with studying scores, rehearsing, and giving concerts that it has often left time for little else. “At this point,” he said at the thought of turning eighty, “it is

not the age that worries me; it is the fact that I would like to have some new experiences in life.” Today, Muti is still in fighting form. He insists he can run like a forty-year-old, which any of the Chicago musicians who have raced him down the hundred-foot hallway outside his dressing room can attest. And his energy is unflagging. Characteristically, the morning after his birthday on July 28—Mayor Lori Lightfoot declared it “Riccardo Muti Day” in Chicago—he sped off to Rome, to conduct the Luigi Cherubini Orchestra at the first-ever G20 cultural summit, convened to underline the role the arts play in the health of the global economy, as well as in daily life. The day after that, he was feted in Naples, where he once studied at the storied conservatory, and was given the Guido Dorso Prize, just one in a long line of awards he has received during the pandemic for his influential advocacy of art. In the first months of the pandemic, Muti stayed at home in Ravenna, Italy, studying the

complex and mysterious pages of Beethoven’s monumental Missa solemnis, which he had intended to conduct for the first time in Chicago in September 2020—an honor that went instead to the Vienna Philharmonic at the Salzburg Festival this August. As expected, those performances, in the legendary Grosses Festspielhaus, proved to be a highlight of Muti’s illustrious career and a capstone of his fifty-year relationship with the Vienna orchestra: the New York Times called the concert “radiant, intense, dignified, grand.” In Salzburg, Muti received the Great Golden Decoration of Honor for services to the Republic of Austria, the government’s highest award to a civilian. As Helga Rabi-Stadler, the festival president said, “His high musicality, his passion, his relentless claim to perfection make him an impressive constant in a cultural landscape threatened by superficial events.” It was with the Vienna Philharmonic that Muti had marked his return to the podium, before a small invited audience, in June 2020, after four months of lockdown with his family and a stack of musical scores. Later that month, when he opened the Ravenna Festival with the Cherubini Orchestra in his hometown’s Rocca Brancaleone, a fifteenth-century fortress, it was widely publicized as the first live performance given by an orchestra in Italy since the pandemic began. That gesture set the key for Muti’s own agenda over the next months—active and authoritative at a time many musicians remained silent— demonstrating again and again the universal need for the spiritual food of culture. He and the young Cherubini musicians—he founded the orchestra in 2004—performed all over Italy—in Spoleto, where he publicly presented a prize to

one of Italy’s heroic frontline nurses; in Rome’s Quirinale Palace, in a program designed to honor the seven-hundredth anniversary of Dante’s death; in the Apennine hill town of Marradi, where he reopened the restored Teatro degli Animosi. Muti also ventured further afield—to the Salzburg Festival, with which he enjoys a close, half-century relationship; to Yerevan, Armenia, for the most recent installment in his annual Roads of Friendship project; to Japan for the latest edition of his Italian Opera Academy, focused on Verdi’s Macbeth; and, for the sixth time, he led the Vienna Philharmonic’s New Year’s Day concert, which reaches a larger audience on television than any other classical music event each year. Chicago was never far from his mind. He sent messages to the members of the Orchestra (one, delivered as a holiday greeting, was a video of him playing Schubert’s touching Kupelwieser Waltz at the piano in his Ravenna studio). He hosted “virtual” coaching sessions for Chicago

musicians—four members of the Orchestra in Rossini on one occasion, highly accomplished teenage fellows from Chicago Musical Pathways playing Verdi and Mozart on another—masterfully overcoming the limitations of Zoom and the nearly five thousand miles that separated him from the performers. And he began to work his way through the stack of new scores he has picked to conduct in Chicago this season—some are older works that are new to him and the Orchestra, some are new pieces that have never been performed before in Chicago, and two of them are commissions from the Orchestra that will receive their world premieres under his baton this spring. “We have a multitude of many different composers who write in completely different ways,” he says of today’s musical world. “I think that we have to be open to all possibilities.” For the first time, he will conduct music by Philip Glass, the popular so-called minimalist, in February—Symphony no. 11—to honor the composer’s eighty-fifth birthday. Later in the season, Muti will premiere two scores by the

Orchestra’s Mead composers-in-residence, past and present: Missy Mazzoli’s Orpheus Undone, originally scheduled for the spring of 2020; and a new work by her successor, Jessie Montgomery, who begins as our resident composer this fall. Characteristically, Muti picked both Mazzoli and Montgomery solely by studying their scores— surveying their musical skill and looking for the rare ability to convey the “spiritual substance” that comes from genuine feeling. “I didn’t even want to know the names of the composers, or if it was a man or a woman.” For Muti there is just one guiding light: “What is important is that the choice of the repertoire must always be based on merit.” Also in Chicago this season, Muti will conduct the first Chicago performances of a work by a composer who is now enjoying a long-overdue rediscovery: the Third Symphony, completed in 1940, by Florence Price, the Chicago composer whose career was launched by the Chicago Symphony under Frederick Stock in 1933 at the Century of Progress world’s fair—a historic moment that is now acknowledged as the first

Jessie Montgomery Mead Composer-in-Residence What are you looking forward to as the CSO’s new Mead Composer-in-Residence? I’m very excited to be embarking on this journey and to get to know the Orchestra, the arts community in Chicago, and hometown to be participating in the incredible New York City legacy of the CSO.

When did you begin composing?

a ppo i n t m en t July 2021 through June 2024

I was able to go to a wonderful music school called the Third Street ed u cat i o n Music School Settlement in New The Juilliard School, New York University, York City, where I started on violin. Princeton University Then, when I was about in junior high, I started writing music. I had been practicing improvisation a bit with my primary violin teacher, Alice Kanack, and it was a natural segue at a certain point, when I began junior high school, to experiment with writing.

Is there a piece that has inspired you? One of the biggest influences on me in terms of orchestral music has been Bartók’s Concerto for Orchestra. I became obsessed with that piece when I was in college and wrote a paper on it and studied it when I was writing my first orchestral works. . . . Stylistically, pacing-wise, the way in which the orchestra is divvied up—I found it really educational in terms of how to think about using the orchestra.

How would you describe your style? I think there is a sense that there can be a lot of order in music, but then there can be total chaos and cacophony: that’s exciting. . . . There are often elements of improvisation within my music that are clearly mapped and then also discussed in rehearsal to make sure that musicians are comfortable with taking things off course. I love the idea that you take things off course, but then you always come back to something. . . . There’s a way to make room for that kind of playfulness.

16 CSO.ORG

What are your plans for the MusicNOW series? One of the things I’m looking forward to most is connecting to the world of composers who have inspired me along this artistic path, and hopefully bringing them into the MusicNOW orbit. It’s been, of course, a hugely challenging year for many of us, and I really hope . . . to keep us optimistic about what’s coming. New music is a really good way to do that. You never know what to expect, and it can be something bright, fantastic, and inspiring. I love that new music is an opportunity for us to imagine new possibilities. The 2021–22 CSO MusicNOW series opens at Orchestra Hall on November 1 with a program curated by Mead Composer-in-Residence Jessie Montgomery that celebrates composers with ties to Chicago.

Arabeske in C Major, Op. 18 composed 1839

By the middle of 1838, Robert Schumann’s parallel passions for music, writing, and Clara Wieck had brought the twentyeight-year-old composer to a crucial point in his life. Denied by the adamant intervention of Clara’s father from having her hand in marriage, resigned to never becoming the piano virtuoso that he had dreamed since childhood, and seeking a more vibrant musical milieu than Leipzig as the base for the journal Neue Zeitschrift für Musik (New Journal for Music), which he had edited since its inception in 1833, Schumann decided that a move to Vienna might improve his fortunes. On August 5, 1838, he wrote to his friend Joseph Fischhof, then living in Vienna, Don’t be frightened, if, in two months, somebody knocks at your door—my ghost, my very self; still more, if he tells you that he shall probably settle in Vienna next year and forever. Hoping both to reestablish the Zeitschrift and to achieve sufficient financial and artistic success to force Papa Wieck into consenting to his marriage to Clara, Schumann arrived in Vienna at the end of September. “I have been received with great kindness, even by the minister of police, who gave me an audience day before yesterday,” he reported to his brother Eduard in Zwickau, the family’s hometown.

He said that there was no objection to my living here, and that I might set to work as soon as an Austrian publisher could be found. If I could not find one, however, I might meet with great difficulties, being a foreigner, & etc. . . . You would hardly believe how many petty factions and coteries there are here: to get a firm foothold, one must have a great deal of the snake about him, which I don’t think I have. He found rooms with a family named Cavalcabo, whose daughter Julia was taking lessons from Franz Xaver Mozart, Wolfgang’s son, and demonstrating some talent as a composer for piano and voice. Schumann became friendly with Franz Xaver and was warmly greeted by a number of other prominent local musicians and artists, but he remained cautious about Vienna. “I shouldn’t like to live here long and alone,” he confided to Eduard. “Serious men and Saxons are seldom wanted or understood here.” By Christmas, it had become clear to Schumann that his Viennese venture would fail—he could find no significant way in which to advance his career, there was no promising situation for the Zeitschrift, and he missed Clara terribly, all the more since the Viennese adored her playing and continually interrogated him to learn more about her. He lingered in the imperial city until March 30, 1839, when news that Eduard had become seriously ill took him posthaste to Zwickau; he arrived just after his brother had died. Saddened by his loss and by the disappointment in Vienna, Schumann returned to Leipzig, where, after six more months of waiting to outlast Papa Wieck’s intransigence and legal obstacles, he finally

for the first time, at Schumann’s insistence, at Felix Mendelssohn’s Leipzig Gewandhaus concert of December 12, 1839. In addition, Schumann composed several piano works in Vienna, including the finale of the G minor sonata (op. 22), Arabeske (op. 18), Blumenstück (op. 19), Humoreske (op. 20), Nachtstücke (op. 23), the opening sections of the Faschingsschwank aus Wien (Carnival Jest from Vienna, op. 26), and a number of smaller pieces.

married his beloved Clara on September 12, the eve of her twenty-first birthday. Though Schumann did not realize his most immediate goals during his Viennese incursion, the enterprise was not without value. He brought home with him two important souvenirs—a steel pen that he found on the grave of Beethoven, with which he wrote his First Symphony in 1841; and the manuscript for the late Franz Schubert’s never-performed Ninth Symphony, unearthed from the piles of manuscripts preserved by that composer’s brother Ferdinand, and heard

he word “arabeske,” or “arabesque” in French, has been used in the West since the Middle Ages to describe any ornamentation consisting of flowing traceries of sinuous, undulating, or geometrical designs. The term was inspired by the Arab tradition, which forbade the representation of living creatures and so instead developed intricate artwork around elaborate geometrical and botanical patterns that carefully interlaced scrolls and curves and spirals with dazzling virtuosity. Schumann borrowed the word as the title for one of his most ingratiating piano pieces, the Arabeske, composed in Vienna early in 1839. The work is arranged in a rondo form, in which the elegant, whispering principal theme is twice interrupted by wistful minor episodes. Added as a coda is a thoughtful paragraph in slow tempo, “a final message for the listener to turn over in his mind” according to the British critic Kathleen Dale, which reflects the dreamy and romantic side of Schumann’s personality. A tiny wisp of the principal theme rises from the closing measure.

Goldberg Variations, BWV 988 composed 1741

Johann Gottlieb Goldberg, who died at an early age, lived long enough to give his name to the most famous set of variations written before Beethoven. We know little of his life, and much of the remaining evidence is contradictory. He apparently was a pupil of both Johann Sebastian Bach and his son Wilhelm Friedemann. Young Goldberg showed considerable talent as a keyboard virtuoso, but much less as a composer, although it was his patron’s chronic insomnia that made him famous. The familiar story, as told by Bach’s early biographer Johann Forkel, is brief: Count Hermann Karl von Keyserlingk, who kept Johann Goldberg in his employ so that he might have music whenever he chose, once remarked to Bach that he wanted some keyboard music to entertain him during his many sleepless nights. Bach took this suggestion to heart, and wrote these thirty variations for Goldberg to play as nocturnal solace. The count was thrilled (he rewarded Bach with a golden goblet filled with one hundred louis d’or, the largest sum Bach ever received for his work) and often, in the middle of the night, is said to have summoned poor Goldberg (who had no trouble sleeping save for these interruptions) saying, “Do play me one of my variations.” This lovely story, like many in music history, is hardly substantiated by the evidence, which, in this case, indicates that Johann Goldberg may have been only fourteen years old at the time the variations were written, and that when they were published the next year, they were not dedicated

to the count, as one might reasonably expect under the circumstances. We have come a long way since 1741 when these variations were written—there are now more effective cures for insomnia, for example, and it is no longer acceptable to treat hired help, whether musicians or housekeepers, as slaves— but we have yet to fashion a more impressive set of variations than these thirty by Johann Sebastian Bach. Like a number of works written during the last years of Bach’s life, the Goldberg Variations encompass nearly all that he knew about music. There are canons at each interval from the unison to the ninth, a four-voice fugue, a siciliana, a French overture, a quodlibet, a number of inventions and dances, a grand aria for the right hand; there is music for crossing hands, music of deceptive plainness, and much that requires extraordinary virtuosity; there is music both profound and delightfully witty. And, in the final variation, there is that miraculous sleight-of-hand—attempted by only the very greatest of musicians—of transforming two silly popular songs (one of which freely translates as “higgeldy-piggeldy”) into music of timeless majesty. It is like a great Mozart finale, and eighteenth-century listeners, who were likely to get the joke, no doubt did not know whether to laugh or cry. What is most remarkable about this great encyclopedic collection (particularly if the circumstances of its composition are true) is its great formal beauty and extraordinary architectural purity. The Goldberg Variations are, on one hand, a handy anthology—ideal for dipping into, like a favorite book of poems—and also a precisely structured, unified piece. Like The Art of Fugue and the Musical Offering, the Goldberg

COMMENTS

Variations demonstrate how musical genius is inspired rather than limited by basing a large work on one theme. Bach chose as his theme a sarabande written years before for his second wife, Anna Magdalena. Although it is the elegant ornamental melody that first catches the ear, Bach takes the thirty-two-measure bass line as the foundation for all that follows. Those who look for mathematical perfection in Bach will note that each of the variations is composed in thirty-two or sixteen measures (except for the expanded sixteenth variation, which marks the halfway point), and that there is a nice symbolism in the fact that thirty variations plus the aria itself, played both at the beginning and at the end, provide thirty-two pieces—one for each measure of the theme. Beginning with the third variation, and at every third variation thereafter, Bach gives us a demonstration of the art of writing canons—strict imitative pieces like rounds, except that they are longer and more complex, and that the second voice here enters not at the same pitch as the first, but at increasingly higher intervals. Between the canons, Bach placed wide-ranging variations in a number of styles, followed by pieces for crossing hands. The overall form, then, looks like this: Aria 1. Two-part invention 2. Three-part invention 3. Canon at the unison 4. Four-part invention 5. For crossing hands 6. Canon at the second 7. Siciliana 8. For crossing hands 9. Canon at the third 10. Fughetta 11. For crossing hands 12. Canon at the fourth, inverted 13. An accompanied solo 14. For crossing hands 15. C anon at the fifth, in contrary motion, in the minor (andante) 16. Overture in the French style to signify the beginning of the second half; followed by a fugue

17. For crossing hands 18. Canon at the sixth 19. Dancelike 20. For crossing hands 21. Canon at the seventh, in the minor 22. Alla breve, in four voices 23. For crossing hands 24. Canon at the octave 25. A long accompanied solo, in the minor 26. For crossing hands 27. Canon at the ninth 28. A study in trills 29. Tempestuous 30. Q uodlibet, combining two German folk songs with the theme Aria da capo Despite the perfect order of the piece, there is no evidence that anyone ever played the Goldberg Variations through from beginning to end during Bach’s lifetime. This practice came only with later generations for whom the discovery of Bach was both joyful and inspiring. It was Anton Diabelli who recognized that Beethoven’s dazzling variations on his common waltz tune were unthinkable without the Goldbergs as a model. A couple of postscripts. After writing thirty variations, Bach’s appetite was apparently only whetted—the composer’s own 1742 copy of this music was recently found, and it includes, as a kind of appendix, fourteen additional canons of increasing complexity on the first eight notes of the bass line. Johann Goldberg did not accompany Count Keyserlingk when he moved to Potsdam in 1745. It is not known whether the count continued to suffer from sleepless nights. Goldberg died at the age of twenty-nine, only six years after Johann Sebastian Bach, the man who would keep his name alive for generations to come. —Phillip Huscher Richard E.

profiles Lang Lang Piano Lang Lang is a leading figure in classical music today— as a pianist, educator, and philanthropist he has become one of the world’s most influential and committed ambassadors for the arts in the twenty-first century. Equally happy playing for billions of viewers at the 2008 Olympic Opening Ceremony in Beijing or just for a few hundred children in the public schools, he is a master of communicating through music. Lang Lang plays sold-out concerts all over the world. He has formed ongoing collaborations with conductors including Sir Simon Rattle, Gustavo Dudamel, Daniel Barenboim, and Christoph Eschenbach, and performs with all the world’s top orchestras. Lang Lang is known for thinking outside the box and frequently steps into different musical worlds. His performances at the Grammy Awards with Metallica, Pharrell Williams, or jazz legend Herbie Hancock were watched by millions of viewers. For nearly a decade, Lang Lang has contributed to musical education worldwide. In 2008, he founded the Lang Lang International Music Foundation aimed at cultivating tomorrow’s top pianists, championing music education at the forefront of technology, and building a young audience through live-music experiences. In 2013, Lang Lang was designated by the secretary-general of the United Nations as a Messenger of Peace focusing on global education.

32 NINETY-FIRST SEASON

Lang Lang began playing the piano when he was three years old, and gave his first public recital before the age of five. He entered Beijing’s Central Conservatory of Music at nine, and won first prize at the International Tchaikovsky Competition for Young Musicians at thirteen. He later studied with legendary pianist Gary Graffman at the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia. He was seventeen years old in 1999 when his big break came, substituting for André Watts at the Ravinia Festival playing Tchaikovsky’s First Piano Concerto with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Christoph Eschenbach—he became an overnight sensation, and the invitations started pouring in. Lang Lang’s boundless drive to attract new audiences to classical music has brought him tremendous recognition: he was presented with the 2010 Crystal Award in Davos and was selected as one of the 250 Young Global Leaders by the World Economic Forum. He is also the recipient of honorary doctorates from the Royal College of Music, the Manhattan School of Music, and New York University. In 2011, he was honored with the highest prize awarded by the Ministry of Culture of the People’s Republic of China and received the highest civilian honors in Germany (Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany) and France (Medal of the Order of Arts and Letters). In 2016, Lang Lang was invited to the Vatican to perform for Pope Francis. He has also performed for numerous other international dignitaries, including four U.S. presidents and monarchs from many nations. langlangofficial.com langlangfoundation.org
