Perspectivesfrom the Executive Director April 2014 Musical excellence — which has always been a hallmark of The Cleveland Orchestra — goes hand-in-hand with music education, which has been central to the Orchestra’s mission since its founding. This first week of April is a particularly busy time for The Cleveland Orchestra’s education department, with the Orchestra performing weekday Education Concerts here at Severance Hall, In-School Performances in Lakewood and Collinwood, and the season’s second Family Concert, “The Mozart Experience,” on Sunday afternoon, April 6. All children should have access to quality arts education at school, because a child’s education is not complete unless it includes the arts. We stand with teachers and music programs across Northeast Ohio, who are working every day to harness the power of music to engage, educate, and enlighten students of all ages. Throughout his tenure as music director, Franz Welser-Möst has been a great champion of music education. He led The Cleveland Orchestra back into the region’s public schools, performing concerts in local high schools for the first time in thirty years. And it is Franz who is spearheading our Make Music! program to promote active participation in music-making across Northeast Ohio. Musical Introductions. Many of The Cleveland Orchestra’s education programs give students their first opportunity to experience live classical music. PNC Musical Rainbows introduce pre-school and kindergarten students to the instruments of the orchestra. And specially designed Education Concerts, presented for school children each season at Severance Hall, introduce over 20,000 young people to live classical music performed by the Orchestra. Learning Through Music. Music has incredible potential and value as a tool for understanding and unlocking learning for other subjects. With programs such as PNC Grow Up Great and Learning Through Music, Orchestra musicians visit local partner schools and present lessons that utilize music as a catalyst to help teach classroom subjects in new and exciting ways — from math and science to poetry, social studies, and more. Making Music Together. We also believe in the value of nurturing young musicians — in teaching them how to grow and excel in their music-making, and how to benefit from the life lessons making music offers (teamwork, listening, collaboration, and self expression). Our youth ensembles and community performances all build upon the power of music as an activity to participate in directly, with your hands, voice, and spirit. Throughout the spring, these and other programs I haven’t yet mentioned are taking place as a regular part of the Orchestra’s annual schedule. The best way to learn more about these programs is to attend and observe them. Please contact Joan Katz Napoli, Director of Education & Community Programs, at 216-231-7348 to schedule a visit to witness our music education programs in action — and to experience the power of music to shape the lives of young people in our community.

SYMPHONY AND BASEBALL — In the summer of 1953, when Public Auditorium was undergoing renovations, The Cleveland Orchestra’s series of popular summer concerts became pre-game performances at Cleveland Stadium. In this photograph, Louis Lane conducts while Indians team members pose and listen.
and around the globe, The Cleveland Orchestra remains Northeast Ohio’s most visible international ambassador and one of the most sought-after performing ensembles in the world. In concerts at its winter home at Severance Hall and at each summer’s Blossom Music Festival, in residencies from Miami to Vienna, and on tour around the world, The Cleveland Orchestra sets standards of artistic excellence, creative programming, and active community engagement. With the 2013-14 season, Franz Welser-Möst marks his twelfth year leading the ensemble, with a commitment extending to the Orchestra’s centennial in 2018. This artistic partnership continues to move the ensemble forward through a series of new and ongoing initiatives, including: IN PE RFORMANCE S AT HOME
expansion of education and community programs in Northeast Ohio to feature music as an integral and regular part of everyday life for more people, including the launch in 2013 of an “At Home” neighborhood residency program that brings The Cleveland Orchestra to a single neighborhood or town for an intensive period of special activities and performances, as well as the broaden-

ing of the Orchestra’s ongoing education and community engagement initiatives to include Make Music!, a program of active and participatory experience and learning; the establishment of residencies around the world, fostering creative artistic growth and an expanded financial base — including ongoing residencies at the Vienna Musikverein (the first of its kind by an American orchestra) and in Florida under the name Cleveland Orchestra Miami (featuring an annual series of concerts and community activities, coupled with educational presentations and collaborations based on programs pioneered at home in Cleveland); creative new artistic collaborations with arts institutions in Northeast Ohio, including staged works, concerts, and chamber music performances; a concentrated and successful effort to develop future generations of audiences for Cleveland Orchestra concerts in Northeast Ohio, through research, targeted discounts, social media promotion, and student ticket programs, with demonstrated results at Severance Hall and Blossom; a variety of new concert offerings (including staged opera and ballet, as well as KeyBank Fridays@7 and Celebrity Series at Severance Hall and movie, themed, and family presentations at Blossom) to play more music for more people; continuing and expanded educational partnerships with schools, colleges, and universities across Northeast Ohio and beyond; ongoing recording activities, including new releases under the direction of Franz Welser-Möst, Mitsuko Uchida, and Pierre Boulez, as well as a series of acclaimed DVD concert presentations of symphonies by Anton Bruckner led by Welser-Möst. The Cleveland Orchestra was founded in 1918 by a group of local citizens intent on creating an ensemble worthy of joining America’s ranks of major symphony orchestras. Over the ensuing decades, the Orchestra quickly grew from a fine regional organization to being one of the most admired symphony orchestras in the world. Seven music directors have guided and shaped the ensemble’s growth and sound: Nikolai Sokoloff, 1918-33; Artur Rodzinski, 1933-43; Erich Leinsdorf, 1943-46; George Szell, 1946-70; Lorin Maazel, 1972-82; Christoph von Dohnányi, 1984-2002; and Franz Welser-Möst, since 2002. The opening in 1931 of Severance Hall as the Orchestra’s permanent home, with later acoustic refinements and remodeling of the hall under Szell’s guidance, brought a special pride to the ensemble and its hometown, as well as providing an enviable and intimate acoustic environment in which to develop and refine the Orchestra’s artistry. Touring performances throughout the United States and, beginning in 1957, to Europe and across the globe have confirmed Cleveland’s place among the world’s top orchestras. Year-round performances became a reality in 1968 with the opening of Blossom Music Center, one of the most beautiful and acoustically admired outdoor concert facilities in the United States.

Franz Welser-Möst Music Director Kelvin Smith Family Endowed Chair The Cleveland Orchestra
marks Franz Welser-Möst’s twelfth year as music director of The Cleveland Orchestra, with a long-term commitment extending to the Orchestra’s centennial in 2018. Under his direction, the Orchestra is acclaimed for its continuing artistic excellence, is extending and enhancing its community programming at home in Northeast Ohio, is presented in a series of ongoing residencies in the United States and Europe, continues its historic championship of new composers through commissions and premieres, and has re-established itself as an important operatic ensemble. Concurrently with his post in Cleveland, Mr. Welser-Möst is general music director of the Vienna State Opera. With a committed focus on music education in Northeast Ohio, Franz Welser-Möst has taken The Cleveland Orchestra back into public schools with performances in collaboration with the Cleveland Metropolitan School District. Mr. Welser-Möst’s championship of community music-making expands upon his active participation in educational programs and collaborative programming, including the Cleveland Orchestra Youth Orchestra and partnerships with music conservatories, universities, and other arts institutions across Northeast Ohio. Under Mr. Welser-Möst’s leadership, The Cleveland Orchestra has established an ongoing biennial residency in Vienna at the famed Musikverein concert hall and another at Switzerland’s Lucerne Festival. Together, they have appeared in residence at Suntory Hall in Tokyo, Japan, and at the Salzburg Festival, where a 2008 residency included five sold-out performances of a staged production of Dvořák’s opera Rusalka. In the United States, Mr. Welser-Möst has established an annual multi-week Cleveland Orchestra residency in Florida under the name Cleveland Orchestra Miami and, in 2011, launched a regular new residency at New York’s Lincoln Center Festival. To the start of this season, The Cleveland Orchestra has performed fourteen world and fifteen United States premieres under Franz Welser-Möst’s direction. Through the Roche Commissions project, he and the Orchestra have premiered works by Harrison Birtwistle, Chen Yi, Hanspeter Kyburz, George Benjamin, Toshio Hosokawa, and Matthias Pintscher in partnership with the Lucerne Festival and Carnegie Hall. In addition, the Daniel R. Lewis Young Composer Fellow program has brought new voices to the repertoire, including Pintscher, Marc-André Dalbavie, Susan Botti, Julian Anderson, Johannes Maria Staud, Jörg Widmann, Sean Shepherd, and Ryan Wigglesworth. Franz Welser-Möst has led a series of opera performances during his tenure P H OTO BY S ATO S H I AOYAG I

in Cleveland, re-establishing the Orchestra as an important operatic ensemble. Following six seasons of opera-in-concert presentations, he brought fully staged opera back to Severance Hall with a three-season cycle of Zurich Opera productions of the MozartDa Ponte operas. He led concert performances of Strauss’s Salome at Severance Hall and at Carnegie Hall in May 2012 and in May 2014 leads an innovative made-for-Cleveland production of Leoš Janáček’s The Cunning Little Vixen at Severance Hall. Franz Welser-Möst became general music director of the Vienna State Opera in 2010. His long partnership with the company has included acclaimed performances of Tristan and Isolde, a new production of Wagner’s Ring cycle with stage director Sven-Eric Bechtolf, and critically praised new productions of Hindemith’s Cardillac and Janáček’s Katya Kabanova and From the House of the Dead. During the 201314 season, his Vienna schedule includes a new production of Puccini’s The Girl of the Golden West, as well as performances of Tristan and Isolde, Verdi’s Don Carlo, Beethoven’s Fidelio, and Richard Strauss’s Ariadne auf Naxos and Der Rosenkavalier. Mr. Welser-Möst also maintains an ongoing relationship with the Vienna Philharmonic. Recent performances with the Philharmonic include appearances at New York’s Carnegie Hall, in concert at La Scala Milan, and in opera presentations at the Salzburg Festival. He also led the Philharmonic’s New Year’s Day concert, viewed by telecast in seventy countries worldwide in 2011 and again in 2013. Across a decadelong tenure with the Zurich Opera, culminating in three seasons as general music director (2005-08), Mr. Welser-Möst led the company in more than 40 new productions. Franz Welser-Möst’s recordings and videos have won major awards, including the Gramophone Award, Diapason d’Or, Japanese Record Academy Award, and two Grammy nominations. With The Cleveland Orchestra, he has created DVD recordings of live performances of five of Bruckner’s symphonies, presented in three acoustically distinctive venues (the Abbey of St. Florian in Austria, Vienna’s Musikverein, and Severance Hall). With Cleveland, he has also released a recording of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony as well as an all-Wagner album featuring soprano Measha Brueggergosman. DVD releases on the EMI label have included Mr. Welser-Möst leading Zurich Opera productions of The Marriage of Figaro, Così fan tutte, Don Giovanni, Der Rosenkavalier, Fierrabras, and Peter Grimes. For his talents and dedication, Mr. Welser-Möst has received honors that include recognition from the Western Law Center for Disability Rights, honorary membership in the Vienna Singverein, appointment as an Academician of the European Academy of Yuste, a Gold Medal from the Upper Austrian government for his work as a cultural ambassador, a Decoration of Honor from the Republic of Austria for his artistic achievements, and the Kilenyi Medal from the Bruckner Society of America. He is the co-author of Cadences: Observations and Conversations, published in a German edition in 2007.

Lakewood is known for its commitment to the arts. The Orchestra’s events will strengthen this commitment and showcase the city’s great quality of life, local organizations, restaurants, schools, and businesses that make our community special.” The Cleveland Orchestra introduced neighborhood residencies in May 2013 in the Gordon Square community of Cleveland. The activities, including a Cleveland Orchestra Concert at Saint Colman Catholic Church, were taped and aired by WVIZ/PBS ideastream. WCLV 104.9 also broadcast the concert on radio. The goals of the neighborhood residencies are to bring increased visibility and vibrancy to greater Cleveland’s neighborhoods, build community through arts and culture in tandem with local partners, and offer more people the opportunity to engage with the music and the musicians of The Cleveland Orchestra. The culminating residency week of activities will include solo and chamber music performances in unique locations, educational programs at local schools, and new artistic collaborations with neighborhood arts and cultural organizations — all in partnership with local businesses and community groups. Complete “at Home in Lakewood” details can be found at clevelandorchestra.com.
THE CLEVELAND ORCHESTRA
The Cleveland Orchestra and the Lakewood community are joining together to present “The Cleveland Orchestra at Home in Lakewood,” a neighborhood residency that features an intensive week of free public performances and events May 17-24. A series of prepartory events in partnership with Lakewood schools began in February and continue through the public residency week. The centerpiece of the Orchestra’s activities in Lakewood will be a free Cleveland Orchestra concert led by Music Director Franz Welser-Möst at Lakewood Civic Auditorium on Saturday evening, May 24, at 7:30 p.m. Tickets will be distributed at locations throughout Lakewood beginning on Saturday, April 26. (A delayed telecast of the concert will be presented by WVIZ/PBS ideastream; the concert will be broadcast live on radio by WCLV 104.9 ideastream. The television broadcast will feature a composite of community collaborations, musical performances, and joint events and activities throughout Lakewood.) “Creating a ‘grass roots’ opportunity for Lakewood to experience perhaps the greatest orchestra in the world at a very personal level is a cultural experience that we will remember for years to come,” commented Michael P. Summers, Lakewood’s mayor, in announcing resdiency details. “Our increasingly vibrant commercial corridors and neighborhoods will be made ever-more-so by the music and the musicians.” Ian Andrews, executive director of LakewoodAlive, Lakewood’s nonprofit economic development organization, said, “We are ecstatic to have been chosen as The Cleveland Orchestra’s destination for immersion into a Northeast Ohio community.

An accompanist is provided at the audition. The Cleveland Orchestra Chorus is one of the few professionally trained, all-volunteer choruses sponsored by a major American orchestra. Coming from nearly fifty Northeast Ohio communities, members of the Chorus perform with The Cleveland Orchestra in subscription and Christmas concerts each year. Previous choral experience and sight-reading skills are required. The Blossom Festival Chorus includes many members of the Cleveland Orchestra Chorus and other Northeast Ohio choral groups. It has established itself as a permanent annual part of the summertime Blossom Festival and has sung in more than 100 concerts since its 1968 debut. Both groups are directed by Robert Porco. Auditions for the Cleveland Orchestra Chorus and Blossom Festival Chorus will be held April 16 and April 19, by appointment only. Those auditioning are asked to prepare two pieces from the classical literature, one of which should be in a foreign language. Each piece should be approximately two minutes in length. Previous choral experience and sight-reading skills are required. An accompanist is provided at the audition. To schedule an audition, call the Chorus Office at 216-231-7374, or send an email to chorus@clevelandorchestra.com.

Spring audition dates for the choral groups sponsored by The Cleveland Orchestra have been announced. The auditions — for adults, youth, and children — are for membership in groups singing during the 2014 Blossom Music Festival and the 2014-15 Season at Severance Hall. Auditions will take place in May and June. The Cleveland Orchestra Choruses embody a long-standing commitment to choral music in which community members of all ages have the opportunity to participate. The Cleveland Orchestra Children’s Chorus is open to students in grades 6-8 and directed by Ann Usher, and the Cleveland Orchestra Children’s Preparatory Chorus is open to students in grades 5-8 and directed by Suzanne Walters. Both groups are holding auditions on June 2, June 7, and June 14. The Children’s Chorus, formed in 1967, provides musical training in vocal production and choral performance skills. The Children’s Preparatory Chorus provides children with initial choral experiences to which younger singers may not have been exposed, while establishing a solid foundation in vocal production techniques. To audition, children must sing one verse of “America” (My Country, ’Tis of Thee) with piano accompaniment in the key of his or her choice and one verse of “America the Beautiful” (Oh beautiful, for spacious skies) without accompaniment in the key of D. Singing scales and doing some rhythmic exercises may also be included in the audition, for which an accompanist is provided. Students in grades 9-12 are welcome to audition for the Cleveland Orchestra Youth Chorus, directed by Lisa Wong, on May 3, May 11, or June 11. Created in 1991, the Youth Chorus helps raise awareness of choral music-making in the schools of Northeast Ohio and encourages students to continue their choral activities through college and into adulthood. The Youth Chorus collaborates each season in performance with the Cleveland Orchestra Youth Orchestra. Youth Chorus audition requirements are to prepare a piece from the OMEA Solo & Ensemble list,

LEARNING MORE ABOUT THE MUSIC
Concert Previews The Cleveland Orchestra offers a variety of options for learning more about the music before each concert begins. For each concert, the program book includes program notes commenting on and providing background about the composer and his or her work being performed that week, along with biographies of the guest artists and other information. You can read these before the concert, at intermission, or afterward. (Program notes are also posted ahead of time online at clevelandorchestra.com, usually by the Monday directly preceding the concert.) The Orchestra’s Music Study Groups also provide a way of exploring the music in more depth. These classes, professionally led by Dr. Rose Breckenridge, meet weekly in locations around Cleveland to explore the music being played each week and the stories behind the composers’ lives. Free Concert Previews are presented one hour before most subscription concerts throughout the season at Severance Hall. The previews (see listing at right) feature a variety of speakers and guest artists speaking or conversing about that weekend’s program, and often include the opportunity for audience members to ask questions.

INTRODUCING THE CONCERTS
Mozart& the Concerto AS MIT SUKO UCHIDA
continues to revisit some of the works from her performances of all the Mozart piano concertos here at Severance Hall (2002-07), we can be doubly thankful. First, that we can hear these concertos again, with her clear and lucid playing illuminating the diversity of Mozart’s creativity within the concerto form. And, second, that these performances with The Cleveland Orchestra are being recorded by Decca for release — and re-listening. Mozart’s piano concertos represent an exceptional body of work, unique in the classical music cannon. In writing them, Mozart was working within a general set of expectations (for the musicians and listeners), of do’s and don’ts. Understanding the rules, he gladly and gleefully stepped over the line for perfect effect. And, in writing so many examples he helped define what a concerto could be. Later composers would embellish and improvise in more personal and obviously emotional directions. But none would write so many perfect gems in this single genre — so clearly filled with passion and crafted in an identifiably Mozartian way. —Eric Sellen

Introducing the Concerts

Mitsuko Uchida Mitsuko Uchida is a performer who brings deep insight into the music she plays through her own search for truth and beauty. She is particularly noted for her interpretations of Mozart, Beethoven, and Schubert, both in the concert hall and on recordings, but has also illuminated the music of Berg, Schoenberg, Webern, and Boulez for a new generation of listeners. Ms. Uchida made her Cleveland Orchestra debut in February 1990, and since that time has performed with the Orchestra at Severance Hall, at its annual Blossom Music Festival, and on tour in Europe and Japan. She made her Cleveland Orchestra conducting debut in March 1998, and subsequently led performances from the keyboard of all of Mozart’s solo piano concertos as artist-in-residence across five seasons (2002-07). She is currently in the midst of an ongoing recording project with the Orchestra and Decca, revisiting select Mozart concertos. In February 2011, she performed in a special solo benefit concert at Severance Hall to raise funds to support the ongoing maintenance of The Cleveland Orchestra’s pianos. In the autumn of 2010, she travelled to Asia for performances with the Orchestra in Japan. A year earlier, she appeared as soloist during the Orchestra’s 2009 European Tour and Vienna Musikverein Residency with Franz Welser-Möst. Mitsuko Uchida performs throughout the world with many different partners. In addition to playing with The Cleveland Orchestra, this season features engagements with the Berlin Philharmonic under Simon Rattle’s direction, with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Riccardo Muti, and a recital tour from Paris and Vienna to Chicago and New York. Recent years have included a series of the five Beethoven piano concertos (spanning two seasons) with the London Symphony Orchestra and Colin Davis, performances with Amsterdam’s Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, a series of concerts in Spain and Portugal with the Mahler Chamber Orchestra, and performances in Japan with the Hagen Quartet and with soprano Magdalena Kožená across Europe. Ms. Uchida was featured in the Amsterdam Concertgebouw’s Carte Blanche series, with the same programs also forming the core of series in Cologne and London. In addition, she was the focus of a Carnegie Hall “Perspectives” series titled Mitsuko Uchida: Vienna Revisited. In February 2010, she performed all five Beethoven piano concertos with conductor Simon Rattle during a month-long residency with the Berlin Philharmonic. Mitsuko Uchida records exclusively for Decca. In April 2008, BBC Music Magazine presented its Instrumentalist of the Year and Disc of the Year awards to Ms. Uchida. Her recording of Schoenberg’s Piano Concerto with Pierre Boulez and The Cleveland Orchestra won four awards, including one from Gramophone for Severance Hall 2013-14

best concerto recording. Three of her most recent recordings were recorded live at Severance Hall with The Cleveland Orchestra and feature six of Mozart’s piano concertos. The album featuring concertos Nos. 23 and 24 received a Grammy Award in 2011 for “best instrumental soloist with an orchestra.” Ms. Uchida’s discography also includes the complete Mozart piano sonatas and piano concertos (with the English Chamber Orchestra), the complete Schubert piano sonatas, Debussy’s Etudes, the five Beethoven piano concertos with Kurt Sanderling and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, an album of Mozart violin sonatas with Mark Steinberg, the song cycle Die schöne Müllerin with Ian Bostridge for EMI, the final five Beethoven piano sonatas, and a 2008 recording of Berg’s Chamber Concerto with the Ensemble Intercontemporain, Pierre Boulez, and Christian Tetzlaff. Mitsuko Uchida has demonstrated a long-standing commitment to aiding the development of young musicians and is a trustee of the Borletti-Buitoni Trust. She is also co-director, with Richard Goode, of the Marlboro Music Festival in Vermont. In June 2009, she was made a Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire. A variety or Mitsuko Uchida’s recordings are available for purchased at the Cleveland Orchestra Store, located on the ground floor of Severance Hall.

golden years of Viennese music were, of course, those that saw the birth of the great classical masterpieces of Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven. Likewise, Mozart’s own “golden years” were those during which he composed his unparalleled series of piano concertos for the Imperial capital. Among these works, the Concerto No. 18 in B-flat major, K456, is unusual in that Mozart is believed to have written it with a performer other than himself in mind — the blind virtuoso Maria Theresa von Paradis. It is probably for this reason that, unusually for Mozart, the composer wrote out solo cadenzas for this concerto. More often, he kept the cadenzas for his concertos mostly in his head to help guarantee his primacy as a performer-composer. For Concerto No. 18, in fact, there are no fewer than three different original cadenzas (two versions for the opening movement and one for the last) written out by the composer, attesting to repeat performances for several years after the premiere. And, indeed, Mozart played this concerto himself on several occasions. We have a vivid description from his father Leopold, who, visiting from Salzburg, heard him play it. In an oft-quoted letter to his daughter Nannerl, Wolfgang’s sister, Leopold wrote: “I . . . had the great pleasure of hearing so clearly all the interplay of the instruments that for sheer delight tears came into my eyes.” Leopold’s reaction is not surprising. Two hundred and some years later, it is still difficult not to be moved by the intense emotions of the second movement, a set of variations in Mozart’s “romantic” key of G minor. Also, no matter how many times one hears this masterpiece, one can’t help but admire the interplay of instruments — Mozart’s inimitable way of dividing his musical material between the strings, winds, and soloist in such a way as to bring out the individuality of each body and, at the same time, ensure a perfect blend throughout the concerto. Equally perfect is the blend between themes of different characters — the music moves effortlessly from march-like rhythms to singing melodies to delicate virtuoso passages. Harmonically, the opening Allegro contains numerous unexpected “detours” into minor keys or major tonalities with more flats in the key signature.

At a Glance Mozart composed this piano concerto in B-flat major (designated long after his death with the Köchel number K456 and numbered as No. 18) in the summer and early autumn of 1784, recording it in his own catalog of works on September 30. The date of its first performance is unknown; Mozart introduced it to Vienna on February 12, 1785. This concerto runs about 30 minutes in performance. Mozart scored it for flute, 2 oboes, 2 bassoons, 2 horns, strings, and solo piano. The Cleveland Orchestra first performed this concerto in October 1949, with George Szell conducting and Leonard Shure as soloist. The most recent performances were in February 2012, at Severance Hall, with pianist Pierre-Laurent Aimard conducting from the keyboard.
breaks through the clouds. The second movement is a set of variations in G minor, a key that in Mozart’s music always denotes melancholy — if not outright tragic — emotions. The theme has a definite protoRomantic quality to it. It is a double phrase whose halves are treated differently in the subsequent variations, so that although the double phrase is repeated only five times, the character of the music changes twice as often in terms of the textural and harmonic changes. The figurations of the solo piano, unaccompanied or with the original theme played in the background by the strings, alternate with coloristic studies for the woodwind section. There is a dramatic variation by the full orchestra (tutti) in the middle, counterbalanced by a lyrical maggiore (majorkey) episode soon afterwards. A valedictory coda closes this special gem among Mozart’s slow movements. The third movement starts with a hunting signal upon which is built a spirited rondo movement. However, there is a rather stunning central episode — a lengthy moment in the remote tonality of B minor, where duple and triple meters are heard simultaneously as an agitated bassoon melody in 2/4 is accompanied by piano figurations in 6/8. Then the piano continues the melody and the strings take over the accompaniment. The movement ends with the tonal and metric balance perfectly restored, with a happy return of the initial hunting signal. As Leopold Mozart reported to his daughter, when Mozart finished playing the concerto, Emperor Joseph II, who was present, “waved his hat and called out ‘Bravo, Mozart!’” Evidently, the monarch found the number of notes entirely to his liking this time (unlike a few years earlier, at the premiere of the opera The Abduction from the Seraglio, when he famously complained that there were “too many notes”). —Peter Laki Copyright © Musical Arts Association

Symphony No. 23 in D major, K181 composed 1773
by
Wolfgang Amadè
MOZART born January 27, 1756 Salzburg died December 5, 1791 Vienna
At a Glance Mozart wrote this symphony in the spring of 1773, with its premiere possibly taking place soon thereafter in Salzburg. This symphony runs about 10 minutes in performance. Mozart scored it for 2 oboes, 2 horns, 2 trumpets, and strings. The Cleveland Orchestra has presented this symphony on two previous occasions, in a weekend of concerts in January 1984 with Kurt Masur and in July 2003 with Jahja Ling conducting.
Severance Hall 2013-14
T H I S S H O R T S Y M P H O N Y , written in 1773 when Mozart was 17 years old, has the peculiarity of having no breaks between the movements — the last chord of the first movement (“Allegro spiritoso”) resolves on the first downbeat of the “Andantino grazioso,” which in turn moves seamlessly into the final “Presto assai.” Symphonies at the time, as musicologist Neal Zaslaw has explained, were often “written as curtain-raisers, fanfares to herald the beginnings of plays, operas, cantatas, oratorios, and public and private concerts. . . . Symphonies were heard in church punctuating High Mass or embellishing Vespers. In Salzburg and Vienna they even appeared on mild summer evenings as outdoor serenades. . . . Symphonies thus provided an indispensable but subsidiary framework for other things.” In other words, the symphony was not yet the complex and ambitious genre it was to become in the later works of Haydn, Mozart, and especially Beethoven and subsequent generations of composers. At 17, Mozart knew exactly what the form called for as something pleasant and interesting, but not the main attraction. And he was able to work within those conventions with a sure hand and boundless imagination. The oboe solo of the second movement is a great moment, as are the excited tremolos (rapid repeated notes) syncopations (off-beat accents), and minor-mode colorings in the first. Yet there is no comparison between this piece and, for instance, the “Prague” Symphony (No. 38), written more than a dozen years later at the height of Mozart’s artistic maturity and one in a group of works that helped give the word “symphony” a whole new depth and breadth of meaning. —Peter Laki Copyright © Musical Arts Association

Piano Concerto No. 19 in F major, K459 composed 1784
by
Wolfgang Amadè
MOZART born January 27, 1756 Salzburg died December 5, 1791 Vienna
Severance Hall 2013-14
I N T H E S I N G L E Y E A R of 1784, Mozart wrote six piano concertos, more than in any other year of his life. In fact, between 1782 and 1785, he was enjoying the most prosperous period of his entire career. He had his own subscription series in Vienna, for which he wrote most of his greatest piano concertos. In addition, he was in high demand as a composer, performer, and teacher around town, with invitations to some wealthy patron’s house just about every night. When Mozart’s father Leopold, himself a noted musician, came to visit from Salzburg, he was amazed to see all these hectic goings-on, and, in a famous letter to his daughter Nannerl, gave a vivid account of Mozart’s busy professional life during what was without a doubt his heyday. The F-major concerto, given the “No. 19” and cataloged as K459 long after Mozart was dead, is one of the happiest products of these happy times in Vienna. It was the last concerto Mozart finished in 1784, entering it in his own chronological catalog on December 11, 1784. (Before the winter was over, he would write two more concertos, K466 in D minor and K467 in C major.) We know that the F-major work was one of Mozart’s own favorites among his concertos. It was the one he chose to take on tour six years after it was written, when he participated in the festivities in honor of Emperor Leopold II’s coronation in 1790. At a special concert in Frankfurt on October 15, 1790, Mozart performed this work along with the more recent Dmajor concerto (K537). It is this latter work that is generally known as the “Coronation” Concerto, but the name could apply to K459 equally well and Concerto No. 19 has, in fact, been occasionally referred to as the “First Coronation Concerto.” There is definitely something regal about the opening theme of this concerto’s first movement. Its opening theme sounds like a solemn entrance march, in large part from the characteristic dotted rhythm. It is possible that Mozart originally included trumpets and timpani in the instrumentation — he lists them in his catalog, but no parts for those instruments have survived. We shall never know whether Mozart made an error in his catalog entry or whether the trumpet and timpani parts were written on separate pages (as they were in at least one other case) and subsequently lost. At any rate, it seems About the Music

that these “festive” instruments would not be out of place in the present concerto. This dotted theme dominates the entire first movement. Its variants and derivatives appear even after the second theme appears, in a section of the movement that is supposed to, and to a large extent does, provide an element of contrast. Leading Mozart scholar Neal Zaslaw has described this movement as “a kind of debate between this ‘strict’ rhythm and the more ‘galant’ triplets that also occur with great frequency, especially in the solo part.” Concerto No. 19, like No. 18, is one of the few from his catalog for which Mozart wrote out his own cadenzas, both for the first and the third movements. In addition to a full cadenza, the finale also includes a written-out Eingang by Mozart — a cadenza-like introduction to one of the refrain’s returns. The second movement is not a slower Andante or Adagio as one might expect, but a relatively brisk “Allegretto.” It is a piece of great delicacy, with subtle asymmetries in the melodic structure and extended visits from the bright C major (the main tonality) to the darker realms of G minor and C minor. As in several of Mozart’s piano concertos, there are prominent woodwind solos in this movement. Here, the ascending scales at the end of the movement are almost identical to the ones found in Susanna’s aria “Deh vieni, non tardar” from The Marriage of Figaro, written about a year and a half later. The operatic heroine sings that aria as she is waiting for her lover in the garden at night; it is hard not to feel the presence of a similar sensual and idyllic mood in the concerto movement. In his lectures on Mozart’s piano concertos, later published in book form, Olivier Messiaen described the finale of the Fmajor concerto as a most unusual mixture of scherzo character, fugal writing, and sonata-rondo form. In fact, Mozart builds a movement of considerable complexity from a rather unassuming, playful main theme. (Commentators have pointed out the close connection between this melody and a theme from Haydn’s Symphony No. 78 of 1782, which was well known to Mozart.) Zaslaw calls this theme a “contredanse treated in the spirit of opera buffa,” and notes that it “is the perfect foil for a fugato that appears three times, once worked out at some length as a development section, and that is also alluded to in Mozart’s cadenza for the movement.” —Peter Laki
At a Glance Mozart wrote his F-major Piano Concerto, later designated as “No. 19” and cataloged as K459, in Vienna shortly before December 11, 1784. The date of the first performance is unknown, but probably took place in February or March 1785. This concerto runs about 25 minutes in performance. Mozart scored it for an orchestra of flute, 2 oboes, 2 bassoons, 2 horns, and strings, plus solo piano. The Cleveland Orchestra first performed this concerto in April 1952, under George Szell’s direction and with soloist Arthur Loesser. The most recent performances took place in November 2003, with Mitsuko Uchida conducting from the keyboard.

TEXT
Mozart’s Piano Concertos Altogether, Mozart created more than thirty separate works for orchestra and piano. Although a few were published during his lifetime, many did not become widely available until efforts in the 19th century to organize, catalog, and publish the composer’s output. Ludwig von Köchel reconstructed the chronology of Mozart’s compositions in the mid-19th century and published his cataloging of Mozart’s works in 1862. Following Köchel’s chronology, the music for Mozart’s complete works was published by Breitkopf & Härtel, with the piano concertos numbered chronologically from 1 to 27. The first four numbered concertos are early works now known to be arrangements of keyboard sonatas by various other contemporary composers (including Raupach, Honauer, and C.P.E. Bach). Not included in the list printed here are three additional concertos that Mozart completed in 1772 from music by J.C. Bach. NUMBER

He travels to Prague early in the year to see Figaro, where it is acclaimed a masterpiece. Prague asks him to write a new opera. Father Leopold dies on May 28. Don Giovanni, his second collaboration with librettist Lorenzo Da Ponte, is premiered in October in Prague. Wolfgang is appointed to the relatively minor (and not very well-paid) post of â&#x20AC;&#x153;chamber composerâ&#x20AC;? by Emperor Joseph II.
1788
Mozart composes what become his last three symphonies (Nos. 39, 40, and 41) in anticipation of a series of benefit concerts that never take place. His finances are increasingly limited and problematic, and he moves around Vienna several times in the next few years to find lodgings he can work in or afford.
1790
CosĂŹ fan tutte is premiered in Vienna. Mozart attends the coronation of Emperor Leopold II.
1791

Mozart Timeline
The Cleveland Orchestra
What’s his name? Mozart was baptized as Johannes Chrysostomus Wolfgangus Theophilus Mozart. His first two baptismal names, Johannes Chrysostomus, represent his saints’ names, following the custom of the Roman Catholic Church at the time. In practice, his family called him Wolfgang. Theophilus comes from Greek and can be rendered as “lover of God” or “loved by God.” Amadeus is a Latin version of this same name. Mozart most often signed his name as “Wolfgang Amadè Mozart,” saving Amadeus only as an occasional joke. At the time of his death, scholars in all fields of learning were quite enamored of Latin naming and conventions (this is the period of the classification and cataloging of life on earth into kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species, etc.) and successfully “changed” his name to Amadeus. Only in recent years have we started remembering the Amadè middle name he preferred.

The Cleveland Orchestra
Student attendance continues to grow at Severance Hall As The Cleveland Orchestra’s 2013-14 season has gotten underway, more Student Advantage Members, Frequent Fan Card holders, Student Ambassadors, and student groups are contributing to the continued success of these programs. The Orchestra’s ongoing Student Advantage Program provides opportunities for students to attend concerts at Severance Hall and Blossom through discounted ticket offers. Membership is free to join and rewards members with discounted ticket purchases. For this season, a record 6,000 students have joined. The Student Frequent Fan Card was introduced a year ago with great success. The program is continuing to grow, with the number of Frequent Fan Card holders tripling so far this season over 2012-13. Priced at $50, the Fan Card offers students unlimited single tickets (one ticket per card holder) to weekly classical subscription concerts all season long. The Student Ambassador program is also growing. These young volunteers help to promote the Orchestra’s concert offerings and student programs directly on campuses across Northeast Ohio. Also this year, a group of Student Marketing Advisors was formed to help the Orchestra incorporate student feedback and insight to programs, and give local marketing majors a chance to work closely with the Orchestra’s sales team. In addition, attendance through Student Group sales are also bringing in more and more young people to Cleveland Orchestra concerts. From as far as Toronto and Nashville, these groups make up an integral part of the overall success toward generating participation and interest among young people. All of these programs are supported by The Cleveland Orchestra’s Center for Future Audiences, through the Alexander and Sarah Cutler Fund for Student Audiences. The Center for Future Audiences was created with a $20 million lead endowment gift from the Maltz Family Foundation to develop new generations of audiences for Cleveland Orchestra concerts in Northeast Ohio.

The lotus blossom is the symbol of the Heritage Society. It represents eternal life and recognizes the permanent benefits of legacy gifts to The Cleveland Orchestra’s endowment. Said to be Elisabeth Severance’s favorite flower, the lotus is found as a decorative motif in nearly every public area of Severance Hall.

the world’s most beautiful concert halls, Severance Hall has been home to The Cleveland Orchestra since its opening on February 5, 1931. After that first concert, a Cleveland newspaper editorial stated: “We believe that Mr. Severance intended to build a temple to music, and not a temple to wealth; and we believe it is his intention that all music lovers should be welcome there.” John Long Severance (president of the Musical Arts Association, 1921-1936) and his wife, Elisabeth, donated most of the funds necessary to erect this magnificent building. Designed by Walker & Weeks, its elegant

Georgian exterior was constructed to harmonize with the classical architecture of other prominent buildings in the University Circle area. The interior of the building reflects a combination of design styles, including Art Deco, Egyptian Revival, Classicism, and Modernism. An extensive renovation, restoration, and expansion of the facility was completed in January 2000. In addition to serving as the home of The Cleveland Orchestra for concerts and rehearsals, the building is rented by a wide variety of local organizations and private citizens for performances, meetings, and gala events each year.

THE CLEVELAND ORCHESTRA Jane Glover, conductor Imogen Cooper, piano
THE CLEVELAND ORCHESTRA Giancarlo Guerrero, conductor Yuja Wang, piano
Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 3 — “Rach 3,” as fans call it — is one of the most famously difficult pieces of music there is. The sheet music goes on and on, with notes so dense the pages start to look like a Rorschach test. Audience and critics’ favorite Yuja Wang, who has recorded this concerto for her newest album, joins The Cleveland Orchestra for these blockbuster performances. Pop Culture Note: Rachmaninoff’s Third Piano Concerto was central to the plot of the movie “Shine.” Friday evening sponsor: KeyBankNew!
Multi-talented conductor, historian, and writer Jane Glover leads a program of gems from the Classical era — with works by Beethoven, Haydn, Vanhal, and one of Bach’s talented sons. Imogen Cooper matches her artistry to Beethoven’s delightful First Piano Concerto, a work sparkling with exuberance and originality. Glover brings the concert to a fitting conclusion with Haydn’s masterful “Drum Roll” Symphony. Pop Culture Note: Jane Glover is well known for her book “Mozart’s Women,” an insightful and readable look at the women who influenced Mozart’s life, art, and desires.
