“I HAVE TO LIVE IN FINLAND ,” Jean Sibelius once declared. “I could never fully leave this country; it would end me and mean the death of my art.” For decades, Finland has fostered an astonishingly prolific classical music culture. Some of today’s most successful composers, conductors, instrumentalists, and singers hail from this relatively small nation of 5.6 million people. Tonight’s program, led by Dalia Stasevska — also a product of Finland — presents a small taste of the voices that hail from this fascinating country.

Finland’s rugged natural beauty served as the launching point for Einojuhani Rautavaara’s Cantus Arcticus. Subtitled “Concerto for Birds and Orchestra,” this work combines Rautavaara’s characteristic musical language — a delicate mixture of neoromanticism and modernist techniques — with taped birdsong the composer himself recorded in northern Finland. The result is a striking, magical soundscape that pays homage to the over 400 species of birds that call Finland home.

In much of his work, Rautavaara followed in the creative footsteps of Sibelius, a composer so synonymous with Finland that he even appeared on the country’s 100 markka banknote (before the adoption of the euro). Sibelius instilled a sense of national pride and identity in a country that had long been dominated by Russian rule, and his optimistic Second Symphony has been viewed by some commentators as a musical protest, with the composer’s friend Robert Kajanus writing, “The finale develops towards a triumphant conclusion intended to rouse in the listener a picture of lighter and confident prospects for the future.”

Sandwiched between these two Finnish pieces is a work of a different sort by Julia Perry. Born in Kentucky and living most of her life in Akron, Perry forged an incredible musical career as a Black woman, studying with prominent European figures (including Nadia Boulanger and Luigi Dallapiccola) and cultivating an original, deeply expressive style. Though far removed from the landscapes of Finland, her Stabat Mater — sung here by mezzo-soprano Josefina Maldonado — paints an equally evocative scene, that of Mary weeping at the foot of Jesus’s cross, which Perry treats with tender pathos and shades of beauty.

▶ DURATION: about 20 minutes

THE CREATIVE IMPULSE to capture the sounds of the natural world in music has existed almost since a pencil was first put to staff paper. For centuries, composers have conjured babbling brooks, summer breezes, thunderstorms, and all manner of wildlife in their compositions, bringing evocations of nature into the concert hall. Birdsong, in particular, has provided a veritable treasure trove of musical material. The vocalizations of nature’s pint-sized melody-makers are so numerous and ephemeral that no two attempts to put them in musical notation sound quite alike. Indeed, the chirping birds of Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons are entirely different from the “cuckoos” of Beethoven’s “Pastoral”

Symphony, and both are worlds apart from the intricate warblings found in Messiaen’s Oiseaux exotiques.

Most attempts to translate birdsong into musical pitches are an approximation, created simply for aesthetic or emotional effect. However, some composers have taken the idea into further realms of realism. For his 1924 tone poem, Pines of Rome, Ottorino Respighi requested that a phonograph recording of a nightingale’s song be played at the end of the nocturnal third movement. Fortyeight years later, this idea was expanded upon by yet another composer —  Einojuhani Rautavaara.

Rautavaara was born in Helsinki, Finland, in 1928. He studied piano and

musicology at the University of Helsinki before composition studies at the Sibelius Academy. One of his first compositions — A Requiem in Our Time for brass and percussion — received international attention after winning the Thor Johnson Competition in Cincinnati in 1954, prompting none other than Jean Sibelius to recommend him for

a scholarship to Juilliard. Further studies in the US with Persichetti, Copland, and Sessions built upon a solid musical foundation and by the time Rautavaara graduated in 1957, he was poised to become a major figure in Finnish composition.

The rest of Rautavaara’s career continued on a similar trajectory. Successful and strikingly original works — including symphonies, operas, concertos, and chamber music — were supplemented by a lengthy teaching tenure at the

Sibelius Academy (where he counted Esa-Pekka Salonen as one of his students). In 1985, he received the prestigious Finnish State Prize for Music. He passed away in 2016 at 87, having completed his final work —  the Fantasia for violin and orchestra —  the previous year.

techniques. But Rautavaara quickly found this approach to be a creative dead-end. In the late ’60s and early ’70s, he adopted a neoromantic style that synthesizes various musical approaches, with a bent towards accessibility through simple harmonies and modal melodies.

It is out of this creative phase that Cantus Arcticus arose. Commissioned in 1972 by Finland’s University of Oulu, this three-movement “Concerto for Birds and Orchestra” — as the composer subtitled it — combines the sounds of a traditional symphony orchestra with taped birdsongs Rautavaara himself recorded in northern Finland. The work

THE MUSIC

is a natural outgrowth of the composer’s love for the rugged beauty of his homeland and a desire to foster a more “organic” approach to composition. (Rautavaara once stated, “[I] like to think that my compositions are rather like ‘English gardens,’ freely growing and organic, as opposed to those that are pruned to geometric precision and severity.”)

Even if one is unaware of Rautavaara’s “organic” approach, it can still be gleaned upon listening. In the first movement

of a shore lark, which Rautavaara called the “ghost bird.” This recording is split between two different audio channels, which creates an arresting call-andresponse effect. The violins soon enter with an ethereal chorale that is gradually joined by the rest of the orchestra before this — the shortest of the three movements — disappears almost as soon as it began.

Sounds of a flock of whooper swans herald the arrival of the final movement (“Swans Migrating”). A clarinet plays

[I] like to think that my compositions are rather like ‘English gardens,’ freely growing and organic, as opposed to those that are pruned to geometric precision and severity.

(“The Bog”), a pair of flutes pass a wispy line back and forth before a recording of marshland birds quietly emerges from the musical fog. (The opening performance instructions encourage the players to “Think of autumn and of Tchaikovsky.”) Other wind instruments begin to imitate the calls of various feathered fowl — in free, non-measured time — before the sun peeks through the mist and the rest of the orchestra introduces a gorgeously long-breathed melody. The recorded birdsong adds a fascinating sense of realism to this mysterious music, and sings harmoniously with the orchestral instruments.

The second movement (“Melancholy”) opens with a slowed-down recording

a rising and falling line that echoes the flutes’ from the first movement. More woodwinds enter the texture with similar figures, whipping up a cacophonous whirlwind. Horns and low strings introduce another broad, majestic melody — echoes of Sibelius are not far away here — as the tinkling of celesta and harp are layered on top. The whole ensemble crescendos to a glorious breaking point before fading away into nothing as the flock of swans flies into the distant beyond.

Stabat Mater

BORN : March 25, 1924, in Lexington, Kentucky

DIED: April 24, 1979, in Akron, Ohio

▶ COMPOSED: 1950–51

▶ WORLD PREMIERE: August 8, 1951, with the composer as soloist and Piero Bellugi conducting a student orchestra at Tanglewood

▶ This weekend’s performances mark the first presentations of Julia Perry’s Stabat Mater by The Cleveland Orchestra.

▶ ORCHESTRATION: strings and contralto

▶ DURATION: about 20 minutes

See page 16 for the sung texts and translations.

“AH, THEY’RE GRAND GIRLS, ” Dr. Abe Perry of Akron told the Cleveland Call & Post in 1945. “They’re grand! Never gave me a minute’s trouble and more’n that, they’ve really got talent.” And it’s easy to understand why he was so proud. Clara, Lucy, Julia, and Alice — or “Honey,” “Shoes,” “Johnny,” and “Snooky,” as he affectionately called them — were all highly accomplished musicians. Dr. Perry, a pianist-turned-physician who had accompanied the renowned tenor Roland Hayes early in his career, saw to their musical education and relished in their success.

Among the four daughters, the soprano Julia Perry stood out for her keen interest in composition. While a student at the Westminster Choir College in the mid-1940s, she wrote and arranged pieces for the school’s elite

42-voice ensemble, of which she was one of only three African American members. Her composition instructor, Henry Switten, was so impressed with her ability that he hired her to join his staff when he took over as head of the famed music department at Virginia’s Hampton Institute in 1948. There she taught orchestration, composition, and music theory while the choir frequently performed her works.

Perry had an irrepressible creative spirit that soon led her in new directions. She attended the Berkshire Music Center at Tanglewood on a composition scholarship in the summer of 1949 and then left Hampton to pursue further

studies in conducting at Juilliard and voice at Curtis, all while developing a large catalog of original works. “Later I want to write an opera,” she said in a 1950 interview. “I believe that in order to do that a composer should know all phases of music — vocal, including choral, instrumental, and conducting. This fall I want to study ballet and dramatics.” She returned to Tanglewood in the summer of 1951 to study with Luigi Dallapiccola, an anti-fascist Italian modernist, and it was there that

to write music conveying its gripping internal drama. The “Inflammatus” section of Rossini’s Stabat Mater is still a perennial favorite.

Divided into 10 connected movements of two stanzas each and dedicated to her mother, Perry’s score is sparse, even stark in certain moments, but no less expressive than those of her predecessors. Likely with Dallapiccola’s encouragement, she infused it with jagged chromatic melodies, dissonant harmonies, and unusual rhythmic groupings — devices

Miss Perry seems to be a gifted and schooled composer from whom we shall be hearing more and more. I hope so.
— Virgil Thomson

her newest piece, Stabat Mater for contralto soloist and string orchestra, received its premiere.

The Stabat Mater text, a Catholic hymn dating from the 13th century, reflects on the suffering of the Virgin Mary as she weeps during the crucifixion of Jesus. The poem’s emotionally rich 20 stanzas move gradually inward as the narrator seeks to unite with Mary in her agony while pleading for her intervention with Christ on Judgment Day. With a simple rhyme scheme and a regular trochaic meter, it has inspired dozens of composers, from Lassus and Palestrina of the Renaissance to Rossini and Dvořák in the 19th century,

that would become characteristic of her mature musical language. In this context, they become vehicles for capturing the text’s wide emotional terrain.

A sinewy counterpoint culminating in a cello drone opens the piece and grants it an archaic quality that pervades to the end. The vocalist enters with the stoicism of an objective narrator, but this sense of distance dissolves rapidly when, accompanied by shimmering strings, she sings of the pain rending Mary’s soul, as if it had been pierced by a sword (“Cujus animam … pertransivit gladius”). With an increasingly simmering backdrop marked by sighing gestures in the upper strings, the piece reaches its first climax

10 | 2023/2024 SEASON THE MUSIC

when the text mentions Christ’s commendation of his spirit to heaven (“dum emisit spiritum”).

The fifth movement (“Eia mater fons amoris”) begins tenderly, with the sparse archaism of the opening returning in full force through the end of the sixth (“Sancta Mater”). The musical character changes dramatically at the start of the seventh movement (“Fac me verum tecum”) as the music conveys the narrator’s intense psychological transformations — at one moment demanding to share in Christ’s pain while dreading it at another. This section builds slowly over three movements with exquisitely pictorial writing in the strings until the vocalist reaches the word “Inflammatus” in a moment worthy of any operatic climax. The piece closes with a stoicism reminiscent of the opening that sublimates into a vision of paradise.

Perry’s Stabat Mater quickly became her signature work. The proceeds from a performance in Akron in October 1951 enabled her to travel overseas for further

study with Dallapiccola in Italy, where she staged it frequently (and served as soloist), much to audience delight. After a 1954 performance in New York, the great critic Virgil Thomson wrote, “Miss Perry seems to be a gifted and schooled composer from whom we shall be hearing more and more. I hope so.” By 1960, the piece had even been performed and recorded in Japan.

Marking the 100th anniversary of Perry’s birth on March 25, The Cleveland Orchestra’s performances return us to where it all began. “These are girls whose names you’ll be reading tomorrow,” the Call & Post observed in 1945. “You’ll be able to say, ‘Why I read something about them when they were just getting started.’ It won’t be long either because the Perrys are fast coming into their own!”

▶ COMPOSED: 1901–02

▶ WORLD PREMIERE: March 8, 1902, in Helsinki, with the composer conducting the Helsinki Philharmonic

MANY OF US think of Sibelius primarily as a symphonist, yet he did not embark on his first symphony until he was well into his thirties. Like Richard Strauss, who was only a year older, he had dabbled unsuccessfully in opera but was best known for a series of tone poems —  in Sibelius’s case, tone poems with Finnish subjects. Strauss soon renewed his efforts in opera, to great success. Sibelius, instead, built a solid and lasting achievement in his seven symphonies, the last dating from 1924.

We could equally compare Sibelius to Beethoven, who also waited until he was 30 before producing the first of his immortal nine symphonies. (Sibelius’s own much-talked-about Eighth Symphony, so keenly anticipated and so lavishly discussed by music-lovers and journal-

ists, never appeared — or was perhaps purposefully destroyed by the composer — even though he lived a full 30 years after apparently retiring from composition.)

In fact, comparing Sibelius to Beethoven was a recurrent element of early 20th-century music criticism, in which the English critic Cecil Gray roundly declared Sibelius to be “the greatest master of the symphony since the death of Beethoven.”

While any symphonist in the last 200 years has known that his or her work would always be compared to Beethoven, Sibelius’s early symphonic thinking was more about contemporary models —

Borodin, Tchaikovsky, or Bruckner, whose works impressed him deeply. During a stay in Berlin in 1898, he also heard Berlioz’s Symphonie fantastique and noted in his sketchbook: “O holy inspiration! O holy goddess!”

Sibelius’s First Symphony appeared in 1899, almost simultaneously with Finlandia and following his Lemminkäinen Suite. Suddenly, he was known across Europe. He was invited to conduct his music in Stockholm, Paris, Heidelberg, and Berlin. He acquired a publisher in Leipzig and met Dvořák in Prague. He

quality in the opening movement and a sense of triumphant well-being in the finale. This music may very well reflect the optimistic state of the composer’s mind and his affairs at that time.

Returning to Finland, he completed the symphony at his mother-in-law’s country retreat and then gave the first performance at Helsinki University in March 1902. It was an immediate success, played soon after in Hamburg, Chicago, Boston, and beyond — and it has remained a familiar and popular concert work ever since.

The [Second Symphony] encompasses many moods, but there is a sunlit quality in the opening movement and a sense of triumphant well-being in the finale.

was awarded a Finnish state pension for life and was thus able to resign his teaching post at Helsinki University to devote his energies to composing and promoting his music through concerts and conducting.

There were to be dark times ahead —  when poor health, alcoholism and depression, money problems, and anxiety about his standing in contemporary music dogged him — but for the first few years of the 20th century Sibelius was riding high.

In 1901, he travelled south and took a villa in Rapallo, Italy, and there began his Second Symphony. The music encompasses many moods, but there is a sunlit

The first movement has been much acclaimed for its subtle handling of conventional symphonic form. The themes are clear — fragmentary at first, but soon melding into an organic shape. Particularly characteristic is the theme that begins on a long-held note, like so many Sibelius themes, finally moving into a flourish and a falling fifth. There are phrases when the woodwinds find themselves wrapped up in trills, there are solid passages for the brass alone, and constant running, fidgety figures in the strings. Sibelius shapes all this with masterly control, and the close of the movement has the same quiet serenity as the opening.

14 | 2023/2024 SEASON
THE MUSIC

The slow movement is a fine example of Sibelius’s skill with tempo. Andante, ma rubato at the head of the movement is little indication of the diversity of ideas that will come. The most surprising passage is the wandering tread of double basses and cellos at the beginning, which turns out to be the accompaniment to a melancholy tune on two bassoons. The tempo quickens and a sense of agitation seizes the music. After some stern opinions from the brass, a divinely beautiful entry of the strings restores calm, for a brief period at least. The movement is long, varied in mood, but always tightly controlled and balanced.

A speedy scherzo third movement follows, alternating with a sunny middle section when the oboe gives us another of those themes that start on a single note, many times repeated, and finally rounded off. Its second appearance leads directly without a break into the finale fourth movement, perhaps in homage to Beethoven’s Fifth, where a triumphant finale similarly emerges from its preceding scherzo.

While alternating tempos play a major part in the first two movements of this symphony, here it is the steady broad pulse that creates the tension. There is also a competing juxtaposition between the simple opening theme in the major and the second subject in the minor key (first played by the woodwinds over a surging figure in the violas and cellos). The unsophisticated contour of these two main themes has drawn criticism even from Sibelius’s

admirers, but that is surely the secret to the movement’s overwhelming effect. For when the minor theme returns, it builds and builds towards the inevitable, unforgettable moment when the major key breaks out like sunshine bursting through the clouds. Sibelius’s later symphonies are filled with a sense of mystery, but here it is impossible not to hear the grand uplifting feeling that a great performance of this work conveys.

Stasevska was bestowed the Order of Princess Olga of the III degree by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in October 2020 for her significant personal contribution to the development of international cooperation, strengthening the prestige of Ukraine internationally, and popularization of its historical and cultural heritage. Since February 2022, she has actively been supporting Ukraine by raising donations to buy supplies and, on a number of occasions, delivering them herself.

Josefina Maldonado

mezzo-soprano

Dallas-born mezzo-soprano Josefina Maldonado has been critically acclaimed by Texas Classical Review and Theater Jones as “vocally superb” with a “remarkably rich timbre.” Maldonado was a young artist with the Dallas Opera Outreach Program in 2019, singing multiple roles. That year she also made her European debut as a principal artist in the modern-day premieres of two 17th-century serenatas by Johann Heinrich Schmelzer — Le veglie ossequiose and Die sieben Alter stimmen zusammen —  for the Olomouc Baroque Festival in the Czech Republic.

In May 2022 she made her debut with the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra at the Cincinnati May Festival in

John Adams’s El Niño, conducted by the composer, followed by her debut with The Cleveland Orchestra in the same role in November 2022. She now returns to The Cleveland Orchestra to sing Julia Perry’s Stabat Mater, conducted by Dalia Stasevska.

Maldonado holds a Bachelor of Music degree from the University of North Texas where she was a frequently featured soloist with the UNT Symphony Orchestra. Her roles with UNT Opera included Dorabella in Così fan tutte, Ruggiero in Handel’s Alcina, Cherubino in Mozart’s Le nozze di Figaro, Siébel in Faust, and Mother Marie in Poulenc’s Dialogues of the Carmelites.

ABOUT THE CLEVELAND ORCHESTRA

NOW IN ITS SECOND CENTURY

, The Cleveland Orchestra, under the leadership of Music Director Franz Welser-Möst since 2002, is one of the most sought-after performing ensembles in the world. Year after year, the ensemble exemplifies extraordinary artistic excellence, creative programming, and community engagement. The New York Times has called Cleveland “the best in America” for its virtuosity, elegance of sound, variety of color, and chamber-like musical cohesion.

Founded by Adella Prentiss Hughes, the Orchestra performed its inaugural concert in December 1918. By the middle of the century, decades of growth and sustained support had turned it into one of the most admired globally.

The past decade has seen an increasing number of young people attending concerts, bringing fresh attention to The Cleveland Orchestra’s legendary sound and committed programming. More recently, the Orchestra launched several bold digital projects, including the streaming platform Adella, the podcast On a Personal Note, and its own recording label, a new chapter in the Orchestra’s long and distinguished recording and broadcast history. Together, they have captured the Orchestra’s unique artistry and the musical achievements of the Welser-Möst and Cleveland Orchestra partnership.

The 2023 – 24 season marks Franz Welser-Möst’s 22nd year as music director, a period in which The Cleveland Orchestra earned unprecedented acclaim around the world, including a series of residencies at the Musikverein in Vienna, the first of its kind by an American orchestra, and a number of acclaimed opera presentations.

Since 1918, seven music directors — Nikolai Sokoloff, Artur Rodziński, Erich Leinsdorf, George Szell, Lorin Maazel, Christoph von Dohnányi, and Franz Welser-Möst — have guided and shaped the ensemble’s growth and sound. Through concerts at home and on tour, broadcasts, and a catalog of acclaimed recordings, The Cleveland Orchestra is heard today by a growing group of fans around the world.
