Welcome to Abravanel Hall and todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s concert featuring the Utah Symphony. Since 1985, March has been designated Music in Our Schools month (MIOSM) across the nation. Sponsored by the National Association for Music Education, the purpose of MIOSM is to raise awareness of the importance of music education for all childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and to remind citizens that school is where all children should have access to music. Schools and community groups celebrate with creative activities and events. Here at USUO, our Education and Outreach initiatives provide the citizens of Utah with one of the most extensive arts education programs by a professional musical arts organization in the United States. Students enjoy the gift of live classical music and the inspiration to develop their own creative capabilities to enhance their lives. Genuine enthusiasm, confident determination, and artistry are vital skills demonstrated in our outreach programs, and we believe every student receives a unique experience by participating.

The support we receive from the Utah State Legislature for our education programs is augmented by many individuals, corporations, and foundations, and we are very grateful to all those who believe in arts education. Nevertheless, especially at the district level, some public school music programs face budget cuts and are no longer considered essential, and we urge you as parents and residents to speak to your school education representatives as well as your legislators to emphasize the importance of supporting music in our schools. The arts in schools are one of the reasons Utah is such a wonderful place to live, and we want to keep it that way! Thank you for joining us today. When we see the excited faces of people entering and leaving Abravanel Hall, it is a wonderful reminder of the legacy of our education and outreach programs which have connected our community through great live music for several generations.

Music Director

Music Director of the Utah Symphony since 2009 and currently extended to 2019, Thierry Fischer has revitalized the orchestra with creative programming, critically acclaimed performances, and new recordings. Highlights of his tenure include a multi-season Haydn symphony cycle; Mahler, Beethoven and Nielsen cycles; and a tour of Utah’s five national parks. In celebration of its 75th anniversary season, the orchestra appeared at Carnegie Hall in April 2016 to critical acclaim and released an album of newly commissioned works by Nico Muhly, Andrew Norman, and Augusta Read Thomas on Reference Recordings. Following a well-reviewed Mahler 1 CD, they recorded Mahler’s 8th Symphony in Utah with the world-renowned Mormon Tabernacle Choir, due for release later this season.

Thierry Fischer Music Director The Maurice Abravanel Chair, endowed by the George S. and Dolores Doré Eccles Foundation

In September 2016 Fischer was appointed Principal Guest Conductor of the Seoul Philharmonic Orchestra, starting January 2017 and running concurrently with his Utah position for an initial three years. He will visit Seoul at least four times a season and will play an important role in the artistic planning. In Summer 2016 Fischer toured with the Chamber Orchestra of Europe, and debuted at the Mostly Mozart Festival in New York and at the Maggio Musicale Festival in Florence. Guesting in the past couple of years has also included the Boston, Atlanta, Cincinnati and Detroit Symphonies, Oslo Philharmonic, Rotterdam Philharmonic, Salzburg Mozarteumorchester, Munich Chamber, Swedish Chamber and the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, as well as the BBC Symphony at the Barbican and the London Sinfonietta. In Autumn 2016 he conducted the Sao Paulo Philharmonic—his first visit to South America. Fischer started out as Principal Flute in Hamburg and at the Zurich Opera. His conducting career began in his 30s when he replaced an ailing colleague, subsequently directing his first few concerts with the Chamber Orchestra of Europe where he was Principal Flute under Claudio Abbado. He spent his apprentice years in Holland, and became Principal Conductor and Artistic Advisor of the Ulster Orchestra 2001–06. He was Chief Conductor of the Nagoya Philharmonic 2008–11, making his Suntory Hall debut in Tokyo in May 2010, and is now Honorary Guest Conductor.

On the Brandenburg Concerto No. 5 By Mercedes Smith, Principal Flute

A native of Texas, Mercedes Smith served as the Principal Flutist for Houston Grand Opera and Houston Ballet Orchestras for nearly a decade before joining the Utah Symphony as Principal Flute in 2012. She describes her instrument’s role in Brandenburg Concerto No. 5, performed during “An Evening of Bach” March 24 and 25 with guest conductor and pianist Richard Egarr and Utah Symphony Concertmaster Madeline Adkins.

Intimate Conversations The flute is one of three solo instruments featured in Brandenburg Concerto No. 5, along with the violin and harpsichord. The second movement is written very intimately for only the trio of solo instruments without string accompaniment. In this movement each voice is of equal importance and the music is very conversational in nature.

Love at First Sight I actually started out playing the recorder (the historical predecessor of our modern day flute) simply because my mother had one stowed away in the piano bench from her own childhood. I taught myself the recorder for a year or so before switching to the flute when I began playing in my public school band program. I can’t remember what exactly drew me to the flute, but it was certainly love at first sight!

Getting the Low Down The Brandenburg Concerto No. 5 was one of the first works to be specified for the transverse flute instead of recorder during the Baroque era. The transverse flute during Bach’s time, made of wood with seven finger holes and only one key, produced a very mellow and sweet tone. The range of the transverse Baroque flute was somewhat more limited than that of the modern flute we hear today, and thus, in this work, you will hear the flute played mostly in the lower and middle registers.

Pre-concert Rituals By Renée Huang, Public Relations Director

Professional musicians often spend much of their lives on the road performing in concert venues around the globe. Amid the hectic travel schedules, rehearsals, practice time and adjustments to a different time zone, culture and climate, regular routine is sacrificed. We asked three of our guest artists to share what pre-concert rituals help keep them grounded. “I don’t really do anything special but eating chocolate is always nice before the concert. And I just need to talk to somebody around me before going on stage. It makes me feel calm.” FUMIAKI MIURA, Violin

“My main focus before going on stage is always to get to the hall with plenty of time to warm up my fingers. Being quiet and calm helps my concentration so that I can give my best in the service of the music.” YEFIM BRONFMAN, Piano

“You’ll always find a banana and nuts in my dressing room before a concert, and fresh ginger tea, which I carry around in the thermos I travel with. It helps to keep my body warm when the backstage is cold, which is quite frequent. I’ve become more and more aware of the body-mind-soul connection, and am finding that strengthening my body, away from the violin, matters almost as much as the time I spend practicing and warming up before a concert. Generally I do the more vigorous workouts in the days leading up to the concerts, but on the day of the concert, I do a gentle and sweet version of yoga, and give myself a moment to meditate. Also, my phone tends to get neglected on concert days; I like to stay in my quiet, focused little bubble!” KAREN GOMYO, Violin

Music from Bach with Richard Egarr British conductor Richard Egarr, Music Director of the Academy of Ancient Music, is known for his “muscular and strong Bach performances” (Audiophile Audition). On March 24–25, Utah audiences experience his joyful sense of music-making first hand as he leads an evening of Bach’s music, including his Third and Fourth Orchestral Suites, Piano Concerto in D Minor, and Brandenburg Concerto No. 5.

Yefim Bronfman completes the Beethoven Piano Concerto cycle Witness the astonishing talent of pianist Yefim Bronfman, whose playing has been described as “a finely spun whirl of notes that verged on the unbelievable” (The Los Angeles Times), on April 14–15 as he performs Beethoven’s Third and Fourth piano concertos in a single evening.

A Look Ahead Karen Gomyo performs Barber’s Violin Concerto Violinist Karen Gomyo has been hailed as “a first-rate artist of real musical command, vitality, brilliance and intensity” (Chicago Tribune). On April 28–29, she returns to perform Barber’s Violin Concerto—a piece so explosive, the composer had to prove to his commissioner that the finale was not, indeed, unplayable.

A Post-Concert Talkback in Your Own Living Room

We hope you take this performance home with you. If not in the shape of something from the Utah Symphony Guild Gift Shop, then in continued conversation with your friends, family and those who shared in your experience. Keep the discussion going! Here are some topics we can suggest:

• March 24–25 | The music of J.S. Bach serves as a perfect vehicle for an analysis of social, cultural, intellectual, and religious changes in Europe from the 17th to the 18th centuries, and reveals fascinating elements of both European and world history. Is there a modern composer that you feel inspires the same analysis today? • April 7–8 | Modest Mussorgsky composed his Pictures at an Exhibition to perpetuate the memory of a friend. What pictures or pieces of art would you place in a gallery to represent your life or a friend’s? • April 14–15 | Playing until your fingers bleed isn’t just an expression. After Yefim Bronfman played Bartók’s Third Piano Concerto at the Konzerthaus in Vienna, his piano was left with bloody fingerprints due to an earlier injury and a determination that the show must go on. Is there a piece of music that would inspire this dedication on your part? • April 28–29 | Critics and musicologists say that Samuel Barber transcended the stylistic trends of the mid-20th century. This soft-spoken, modest composer had the integrity and sheer will to write the best music he knew how to write, ignoring fads and fashions. What composers or artists do you see fighting fads and fashions today and what is your opinion of those swimming figuratively upstream? Visit “The Musicians Lounge” to read behind the scenes interviews with our artists and musicians which might inspire additional conversations. utahsymphony.org/blog/

Who We Are

Founded during the Great Depression as a Works Progress Administration orchestra under Roosevelt’s New Deal, the Utah Symphony today is the premier provider of symphonic music in the Intermountain West and one of only 15 year-round professional orchestras in the nation. Recognized as a leading American ensemble largely because of the efforts of Maurice Abravanel (Music Director 1947–1979), the Utah Symphony released over 100 recordings during his tenure, including the first complete recording of all of Gustav Mahler’s symphonies by an American orchestra. Named the orchestra’s seventh music director in 2009, Thierry Fischer renewed the orchestra’s commitment to Abravanel’s legacy of artistic excellence and an active recording schedule, as evidenced by the recent, live recording of Mahler’s Symphony No. 1 “Titan” (2015) and the release of three Utah Symphony commissions by American composers Andrew Norman, Nico Muhly, and Augusta Read Thomas (2016). Building on a history of seven international tours, Maestro Fischer and the Utah Symphony presented the nationally covered Mighty 5® Tour in 2014, visiting all five national parks

in Utah and, in 2016, impressed audiences at New York City’s esteemed Carnegie Hall. Under Maestro Fischer’s inspiring leadership, the Utah Symphony features leading musicians and internationally recognized soloists through refreshed and ambitious programming; as a result, the orchestra is attracting increased audiences and unprecedented community support. In addition to more than 65 subscription concerts in its home venue, Abravanel Hall in Salt Lake City, the Utah Symphony plays for Utah Opera’s four annual productions for 20 opera performances; presents the six-week Deer Valley® Music Festival each summer in Park City, Utah; and performs numerous outreach concerts throughout the state, drawing an audience of over 350,000 each year. The 40+ education outreach programs developed by Utah Symphony | Utah Opera (USUO), the orchestra’s parent organization, reach approximately 140,000 students annually from all Utah school districts in more than 240 educational outreach performances and activities. With its many subscription, education, and outreach concerts and tours, the Utah Symphony is one of the most engaged orchestras in the nation.

Arrive early and enjoy a fun, behind the music lecture for each of our Masterworks concerts. 6:45 PM in the First Tier Room, Abravanel Hall

Opera becomes overwhelmingly personal in this contemporary story of an American soldier coping with blast-induced traumatic brain injury after he returns home from duty in Iraq. Based on the book The Long Walk: A Story of War and the Life that Follows, Brian Castner’s best-selling memoir, this opera offers a visceral look at the realities of modern warfare and the unseen battles that rage inside our hearts.

Jun Märkl has long been known as a highly respected interpreter of the core Germanic repertoire from both the symphonic and operatic traditions, and more recently for his refined and idiomatic explorations of the French impressionists. He has long-standing relationships at the state operas of Vienna, Berlin, Munich and Semperoper Dresden and has held music directorships of the Orchestre National de Lyon and MDR Symphony Orchestra Leipzig as well as the Basque National Orchestra and Pacific Music Festival (Japan). He guest conducts with the world’s leading orchestras, including the Cleveland Orchestra, Philadelphia Orchestra, NHK Symphony Orchestra, Czech Philharmonic, Munich Philharmonic, Oslo Philharmonic, and Tonhalle-Orchester Zürich. He made his Royal Opera House debut with Götterdämmerung in 1996 and at the Metropolitan Opera with Il Trovatore in 1998, has conducted complete Ring Cycles at the Deutsche Oper and at the New National Theatre in Jun Märkl Tokyo, and toured to Japan in 2007 with the Semperoper Conductor Dresden (Tannhäuser). Born in Munich, his (German) father was a distinguished Concertmaster and his (Japanese) mother a solo pianist. Märkl studied violin, piano and conducting at the Musikhochschule in Hannover, going on to study with Sergiu Celibidache in Munich and with Gustav Meier in Michigan. In 1986 he won the conducting competition of the Deutsche Musikrat and a year later won a scholarship from the Boston Symphony Orchestra to study at Tanglewood with Leonard Bernstein and Seiji Ozawa. Soon afterwards he had a string of appointments in European opera houses followed by his first music directorships at the Staatstheater in Saarbrücken (1991–94) and at the Mannheim Nationaltheater (1994–2000).

BACKGROUND

Today, as we hear and enjoy a diverse range of music in the concert hall, it’s hard for us to imagine just how factionalized American composers were during the early- and mid-20th century, when Samuel Barber was most actively composing. As a group, American composers simply had not found a distinctive voice in the classical world that would be consistent with the European-style nationalism furthered by composers such as Dvořák and Bartók. The natural wellsprings for such composition, American “roots music,” are incredibly rich, but composers and academics bickered over traditional melody versus atonality and European versus American influences. So when critics and musicologists say that Samuel Barber transcended the stylistic trends of the mid-20th century, they are saying a great deal. This soft-spoken, modest composer had the integrity and sheer will to write the best music he knew how to write, ignoring fads and fashions. As a result, works 40

such as his sumptuously beautiful Violin Concerto have endured ups and downs in popularity. His celebrated Adagio for Strings, however, maintains a constant presence in public settings throughout the U.S. Barber’s early upbringing in exurban Pennsylvania brought European and American cultural traditions together in an idyllic setting. Bourgeois values have a bad rep these days, but growing up in the then-rural town of West Chester, Barber’s upbringing was bourgeois in the best tradition: He was well educated and had plenty of culture at home. (Ironically, West Chester later became the home of online retailing powerhouse QVC.) His aunt, the esteemed Metropolitan Opera contralto Louise Homer, enhanced his musical understanding and worked with him on his own singing. (Barber was a gifted baritone.) Gentility and refinement prevailed; the arts and philosophy were valued. Barber was among the earliest crop of students at Philadelphia’s ultra-prestigious Curtis Institute of Music, where he met his longtime romantic and artistic partner: the Italian-born opera composer Gian Carlo Menotti, who greatly influenced his work. Samuel Barber’s moving Adagio for Strings is one of the most popular and frequently programmed American compositions in the standard repertory. Elemental and beautiful, the Adagio has qualities that are rarely found together: a spacious, quintessentially American sound, but also a melancholy, ruminative mood that offers both insight and solace to the listener. Barber originally composed this work in 1936 as the second movement of his String Quartet, Opus 11. It seems likely that Menotti, a phenomenally intuitive composer MASTERWORKS

Barber’s Violin Concerto

program notes

with a sure sense of drama and popular appeal, was instrumental in its success; knowing that Barber had a potential hit on his hands, Menotti ensured that its manuscript would be seen and programmed by Arturo Toscanini when the reticent Barber was less sure of its appropriateness. It was premiered by the NBC Symphony Orchestra under Toscanini’s baton in 1938. Today, almost 80 years later, Barber’s Adagio for Strings is more than just a staple of the orchestral repertory; it is almost always turned to when American orchestras seek a musical work to provide beauty, solace and inspiration for their audiences. This was first noted in November 1963, after President John F. Kennedy’s assassination, when hundreds of ensembles throughout the U.S. spontaneously chose to play the Adagio in tribute; it was equally true in the days following 9/11. It is revered not only for its sensual appeal, but also for the way it seems to evoke a prayerful feeling of solemn contemplation—and, ultimately, of inspiration. Writing about Barber’s Concerto for Violin and Orchestra, musicologist Paul Horsley calls the composer “a born romantic,” an apt description for the creator of this cherished and deeply romantic concerto. Barber’s 20s were a decade of extensive travel; he had won the Rome Prize and Pulitzer Traveling Scholarship, and his travels helped develop his mature compositional style. He received the commission for the concerto from Samuel Fels, of “Fels Naphtha” fame, in late 1938 or 39, for Fels’ adopted son, a Russian-born violinist. He wrote the first two movements in Switzerland, but with World War II looming, was forced to return to his native Pennsylvania. There he composed the third movement, a brisk “perpetual motion” that brings the concerto to a rousing close. MASTERWORKS

2/3

But after relatively uneventful work on the first two movements, developing the third— where the showiest playing was expected— proved troublesome. Creative differences plagued the project as Barber approached his 30th birthday. All the while, the horrors of World War II were engulfing Europe and the starkness of spiky, atonal music was coming into vogue. In the face of all that, Barber never flinched from writing music “as tonal as it needed to be” to express heartfelt emotion. If you think this sounds like an ideal aesthetic for a concerto, listeners agree: This sumptuously melodic concerto is one of Barber’s most frequently performed works, and is recognized as the most important violin concerto by any American composer. WHAT TO LISTEN FOR

In the Adagio, Barber spins a long, flowing, deeply voiced melodic line that remains a constant presence throughout the work. It is both elegiac and hopeful as it passes from one string choir to another—first in the violins and then, a fifth lower, in the violas. As the violas continue with their heartfelt voicing of the theme, it is taken up by the cellos and further developed, eventually building to a climax in which the basses underline it, adding a sense of depth and timelessness with their unique resonance. A fortissimo climax, like a cry from the heart, is followed by silence, leading to the restatement of the original, with an inversion of its second statement offering perhaps the possibility of healing and hope. In the concerto, we hear a traditional threemovement work with singing lines for the soloist along with suitably virtuosic display passages. But oddly, Barber’s strict musical philosophy included an aversion to the traditional cadenzas, in which soloists get their chance to play the spectacular solo 41

variations we love to hear. The interplay between soloist and orchestra is superbly crafted and technically refined, but for the showmanship that audiences love in a concerto, we have to wait for its incendiary last movement. That movement was the subject of much argument and delay among the work’s original performance team. After private performances resolved all disagreements and put the concerto’s merits beyond dispute, it received its public premiere with soloist Albert Spalding and the Philadelphia Orchestra conducted by Eugene Ormandy at the Academy of Music—months later than originally scheduled. Like any concerto worth its salt, it was once called “unplayable” and is now indispensable. Johannes Brahms (1833–1897), arr. Arnold Schoenberg (1874–1951)

BACKGROUND

43 minutes

As we enjoy Brahms’ mastery of orchestral and chamber forms, it’s easy to forget his affection for Magyar melody and folk energy that was known as “Gypsy music” in his day. He composed his large and ambitious Piano Quartet No. 1, the third of his 26 great chamber works, in 1861, when he was 28. Its popular appeal comes in large measure from the “Gypsy rondo,” or Rondo alla zingarese, that concludes the work. But it is gorgeous throughout—a claim that could apply to all of Brahms’ chamber music. Brahms wrote

3/3

the piano part for his beloved friend Clara Wieck Schumann, who was the pianist at its premiere in Hamburg in 1861; Brahms himself was pianist in a performance the following year in Vienna. WHAT TO LISTEN FOR

The piano quartet unfolds with luxuriously expansive development sections in its first three movements, then comes to a flashing finale in the form of an extremely fast, energetic rondo—a pattern that Brahms also followed in a number of other chamber works. In this instance, the fourth movement is built on simple, catchy motifs with a Magyar flavor and thumping double rhythms—one of the most technically challenging movements in all of Brahms’ chamber music. In 1937 Arnold Schoenberg arranged all four movements for full orchestra, explaining that he wanted to hear every part of it, not just the piano: “…the better the pianist, the louder he plays, and you hear nothing from the strings.” His superb arrangement remains popular today. The brilliance of Schoenberg’s arrangement carries some irony along with it. In his own lifetime, Brahms was considered by many to be the prime exponent of musical conservatism—a throwback to the late Romantic era whose music ideology ran counter to that of Wagner, the great revolutionary. We might guess Schoenberg, the great pioneer of atonality and modernism who followed Wagner, to be Brahms’ arch-antagonist. But Schoenberg was a superb orchestrator whose knowledge of music theory and craft was encyclopedic. He appreciated the past as he looked to the future, creating this arrangement in 1937— some 40 years after Brahms’ death and 25 years after his own landmark work of atonal weirdness, Pierrot Lunaire.
