Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Born 1756, Salzburg, Austria Died 1791, Vienna, Austria

Symphony No. 29 in A Major, K. 201 (1774) When Mozart was seventeen years old, he and his father, Leopold, traveled to Vienna, ostensibly in search of employment with the Imperial Court. The Mozarts cloaked their true intentions for the trip by also seeing friends and performing, but in the end, a position for the younger Mozart was what they sought. No such position was offered; possibly because Mozart was getting a little “long in the tooth” to play the role of wunderkind, and his antics were not nearly as adorable as they had been when he was a child. Regardless, the duo returned to Salzburg in the fall of 1773. While Mozart did not obtain a position in Vienna, the center of European culture at the time, he did procure a deeper understanding of the musical traditions and the musical future by surrounding himself in the music the city had to offer. Such luminaries as Gluck, Salieri, and Haydn were in their heyday at the time, and the composer took note. Revitalized and invigorated, almost immediately upon his return, Mozart composed his Symphony No. 25, often referred to as the “Little g minor.” This symphony was a great departure for the composer and incorporated the new concept of “Sturm und Drang,” made popular by Haydn. The following April came the Symphony No. 29 in A Major. It is this symphony that most scholars point to as Mozart’s first mature symphony. Mozart scholar Georges de Saint-Foix stated that, “In invention and scope, the A major Symphony is the most perfect product of the whole first period of Mozart’s career … After it, he will not do better, only different things.” And the British musicologist and critic Stanley Sadie describes the symphony as “a landmark… personal in tone, indeed perhaps more individual in its combination of an intimate, chamber music style with a still fiery and impulsive manner.” The Symphony is scored for the usual Salzburg instrumentation: two oboes, two horns, and strings. The first movement, written in sonata form, begins softly and

subdued and is characterized by an opening downward octave leap, repeated notes, and heavy use of the appoggiatura. The overall mood is light and joyous. The second movement is written for muted strings and the use of winds is fairly limited. It features dotted rhythms and the string writing is more chamber music than symphony. The Minuet offers great dynamic contrasts and, as in the second movement, features dotted rhythms, but in this turn, they offer a courtly and driving character. The Finale is spirited and filled with impressive violin flourishes; it hearkens back to the first movement with the use of the descending octave leap as a thematic element. ●

Johann Sebastian Bach Born 1685, Eisenach, Germany Died 1750, Leipzig, Germany

Clavier Concerto No. 4 in A Major, BWV 1055 (1738) Most likely written in the early 1720s as a concerto for the oboe d’amore, the Clavier Concerto No. 4 in A Major, BWV 1055 was reworked for harpsichord in 1738. In fact, all of Bach’s concertos for the harpsichord were originally written for other instruments, most likely the oboe, oboe d’amore, or violin. The original versions of these concertos in most cases did not survive. As with most works by the Baroque masters, little is known about the composition or premiere of their pieces. It is surmised that these concertos were most likely written for and premiered by the Leipzig Collegium Musicum, a group comprised of amateur instrumentalists and vocalists that Bach directed from 1729–1741. To be clear, “amateur” is not meant in the pejorative sense here: the Collegium’s members were highly skilled amateurs, students, and the occasional professional. The group performed weekly at Zimmerman’s

Coffee House in Leipzig, and while no official programs of the performances have survived, it is assumed that much of their repertoire included works by their director. The Collegium was fortunate to receive a new harpsichord in 1733, and it was heralded to be “the likes of which no one here has ever heard.” It is most likely for this instrument that Bach composed his harpsichord concertos of the late 1730s. The Concerto is written in the usual three-movement configuration of fast-slow-fast. The outer movements are lively and virtuosic, both employing ritornellos. The second movement, written in the relative minor, uses sparse accompaniment to let the fantasia style of the solo line sparkle. ●

Franz Joseph Haydn Born 1732, Rohrau, Austria Died 1809, Vienna, Austria

Missa Sancti Nicolai, Hob. XXII:6 (1772) The Missa Sancti Nicolai was written in 1772 for the name-day celebration of Prince Nikolaus Esterházy. The mass was written very quickly, within the span of about two weeks. Austrian folk song plays a large role in the mass, as Prince Esterházy was a fan of the music of his country. The work is noted for its “pastoral” quality with lilting rhythms and the idyllic key signature of G Major. The mass contains the standard six movements, although in his haste, Haydn did not write a Dona nobis pacem for the last movement. Instead, the players probably improvised it during the first performance. In later editions of the work, a Dona nobis pacem is included, written by Haydn’s copyist, Joseph Elssler. The work is scored for two oboes, two horns, strings, and organ, and the revised 1802 version adds trumpets and timpani. ● Program Notes ® Lori Newman

Program Notes Lori Newman

Frédéric Chopin

Born 1810, Żelazowa Wola [near Warsaw], Poland Died 1849, Paris, France

Piano Concerto No. 1 in e minor, Op. 11 (1830) Frédéric Chopin wrote only six pieces that required orchestra, all of them included solo piano, and they were all written before his twenty-first birthday. There’s much debate as to why Chopin composed so little for the orchestra: some say he didn’t have the chops for orchestration or the ability to write in large-scale classical forms, some say his particular brand of concertizing didn’t lend itself well to battling the orchestra for attention, and others think that it boiled down to the fact that he just didn’t have to. Let’s delve a little deeper into each of these. With regards to the question of Chopin’s talents, it is possible that Chopin has gotten a bum rap. His works for piano and orchestra are compared and contrasted with the piano concerti of Mozart and Beethoven. When Chopin was studying at the Warsaw Conservatory, the works of neither of these composers would have been part of his education. Chopin would instead study the works of Carl Maria von Weber, John Field, and Johann Nepomuk Hummel. Those names would have composed their works for piano and orchestra as vehicles for the soloists, not with the interplay that

the orchestra and soloist would share in the works of Mozart and Beethoven. And that is exactly one of the major complaints with Chopin’s piano concertos: too much piano, not enough orchestra. With regards to the classical forms with which Chopin uses, he is criticized for not sticking to the structural rules of sonata form. True enough, but again, his models were more concerned with the soloist’s role in the concerto and perhaps, to a small degree, less about the rules of sonata form. Could Chopin not compete with an orchestra? Possibly. During the first part of the nineteenth century, the “virtuoso composer” came into fashion with the likes of Paganini and Liszt. These touring soloists were expected to play virtuosically as well as compose their own music as a vehicle for their touring. The revolutionary nature of Chopin’s piano works is not doubted, but his virtuosity was more subtle, less flashy than the aforementioned virtuosi. The famous composer Hector Berlioz once said of Chopin’s playing, “It is necessary to hear him at no great distance, rather in the salon than in the theater.” So, perhaps writing bombastic works in which he would be in direct competition with the orchestra was just not for Chopin. The third consideration of why Chopin wrote so little orchestral music was that he just didn’t have to. Well, no, he didn’t. Chopin left Warsaw in 1830 at the age of twenty, and by the mid-1830s, he had settled comfortably into the Parisian social scene. He was a mainstay in the Paris salons, and his solo concerts in these venues were very

popular. There was no need for him to write in a genre in which his particular talents would not shine. Chopin’s Piano Concerto No. 1 in e minor premiered on October 11, 1830, in Warsaw with the composer as soloist. This was the last performance Chopin would give in Warsaw, and the concerto was met with “deafening bravos,” in Chopin’s words. The First Piano Concerto was actually written after the Second Piano Concerto, but published first, thus its numbering. The first movement opens with an extended orchestral introduction: a full four minutes of orchestral introduction (Decades later, Johannes Brahms would also be blasted for the long introduction in his First Piano Concerto). But after the orchestra’s moment in the sun, it is really all about the piano thereafter. The piano dances and sings in contrasting virtuosic and lyrical sections. Because of the all-consuming solo part, Chopin felt no need to include a first movement cadenza as tradition would dictate. The second movement is a stunning Romance in the style of a Nocturne. Again, the piano dominates. So much so, there are less than fifteen measures in which the piano is not playing. Chopin said of this contemplative movement, “[It is] of a romantic, calm and partly melancholy character. It is intended to convey the impression which one receives when the eye rests on a beloved landscape that calls up in one’s soul beautiful memories, for instance, of a fine moonlit spring night.” Chopin’s Polish heritage shines in the finale. The basis for the syncopated and stylized Rondo is the krakowiac, a Polish folk dance. Again, the soloist is front and center with dizzying and dazzling piano writing. ●

Christoph Willibald Gluck

Born 1714, Erasbach [now Berching], Germany Died 1787, Vienna, Austria

Selections from Orfeo ed Euridice (1762)

Orfeo ed Euridice is one of the most significant and historical operas in music history. While Gluck’s name may not be as recognizable as many other composers, in his time, he was an extremely successful and influential composer. What makes Orfeo so revolutionary is that it is the first of the socalled “reform” operas of Gluck, along with the librettist Ranieri de’ Calzabigi. continued on 10

Program Notes . continued from 9 What was opera reform? It was brought about by Gluck who was troubled by the state of opera in the mid-1700s. In his mind, opera seria (serious opera) had become too convoluted and revolved far too much around the singers and their egos, and opera buffa (comic opera) was just plain stale. He and Calzabigi created a manifesto, and in it, they outlined their new operatic vision. Briefly, here were the items they were most concerned in changing: 1) Removing da capo arias. Da capo arias repeat already performed music and text to stick to an established form. Gluck argued that singing the same thing again, just for the sake of tradition, stalled the drama. 2) No more extended and virtuosic cadenzas that served only to strut the singers’ vocal chops. 3) Keep the drama center stage with simple and direct expression. He did this by making recitatives and arias more similar in nature by making the recitatives less choppy and more lyrical. 4) Making the overture an integral part of the opera. 5) Bringing back the chorus to help serve the drama. So, Gluck’s main interest was enhancing the drama and creating new forms and models which did so. He stated, “I believed that my greatest labor should be devoted to seeking a beautiful simplicity … and there is no rule which I have not thought it right to set aside willingly for the sake of an intended effect.” We can find an obvious manifestation of Gluck’s opera reform in the small cast, containing only three characters and a chorus. The players include: Orfeo, a musician and poet, whose instrument is the lyre (harp); Euridice, his beloved and deceased wife; and Amore, the goddess of love. The opera opens with a gathering of mourners at the gravesite of Euridice, among them: shepherds, nymphs, and Orfeo. The opening aria, “Ah! se intorno a quest’urna funesta,” is a lamentation of Eurdice’s death and is sung by the chorus. Orfeo is so grief-stricken he is only able to painfully call out Euridice’s name.

“I believed that my greatest labor should be devoted to seeking a beautiful simplicity … and there is no rule which I have not thought it right to set aside willingly for the sake of an intended effect.” —Christoph Willibald Gluck

Orfeo sends the mourners away and sings his own lamentation in “Chiamo il mio ben cosí.” He then castigates the gods for taking his wife away from him and vows to rescue his beloved from the underworld. Hearing Orfeo’s cries, the god of love, Amore, enters and tells Orfeo that Jove has heard and been moved by his plight. He will allow Orfeo to go to the underworld to retrieve Euridice. There’s a catch, however: Orfeo must not look at Euridice, nor explain why he avoids her gaze, or Euridice will immediately die again (“Gli sguardi trattieni”). Orfeo accepts the challenge and begins his journey. Act II opens at the gates of Hades. The chorus, acting on behalf of the specters and furies that guard the entrance to the underworld, asks who dares to try and cross the threshold (“Chi mai dell’Erebo”). His request for entry is rebuked. Orfeo begins playing his lyre and begging for admittance (“Chi mai dell’Erebo”), while the furies question why anyone would want to be granted access to the underworld (“Misero giovane!”). Eventually, they allow Orfeo to go through to the Elysian Fields. Scene II opens in

the splendor and beauty of the Elysian Fields. Euridice sings of the happiness she feels living in Elysium and the peace it brings her (“È Quest’asilo ameno e grato”). Meanwhile, Orfeo is also taken by the exquisite surroundings, although, since he is experiencing this without Euridice, his happiness cannot be complete (“Che puro ciel!”). Orfeo beseeches the spirits to bring Euridice to him, and they do. Without looking at her, he leads them out of the underworld. Act III opens in a dark labyrinth back to Earth. Euridice is excited to be going back home but questions Orfeo about his refusal to look at her. Orfeo can’t explain, and Euridice worries that her beauty has faded and Orfeo no longer loves her. Orfeo fights the urge to look at her despite her pleas and protestations. Finally, as she comes closer to him, he steals a glance. As promised, Euridice immediately dies. In despair, Orfeo wonders how he will live without her (“Che farò senza Euridice?”). He decides life without Euridice would be unbearable, and the only thing he can do to stop his pain is to kill himself. Scene II opens with the return of Amore, who stops Orfeo from harming himself. She is so taken by his devotion that she returns Euridice to him, and the three of them return to Earth (“Gaudio, gaudio son al cuore”). Scene III takes place in the Temple of Love where the newly returned trio and the nymphs and shepherds sing and dance to the power of love (“Trionfi Amore, e il mondo intero”). ● Program Notes ® Lori Newman

Florida Weekly described ten-year-old Umi Garrett’s performance of Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 23 in A Major, K 488 with the Charlotte Symphony and Toshimasa Francis Wada: “Umi Garrett wowed the sold-out crowd with her masterful performance. She simply blew this reviewer and the audience away with her performance, her fluid runs and countless trills flawlessly performed, joyous at one moment, prayerful at another.” An appearance with the Missouri Symphony and the conductor, Kirk Trevor, garnered young Umi Garrett an impressive review from The Columbia Daily Tribune that stated, “She played with the poise and supreme confidence of a veteran five times her age. She, the conductor, and the orchestra worked as one. The power of her tiny hands on the keys was mesmerizing. ‘Genius’ seems the best description.” Umi’s past engagements include the Wuhan Symphony Orchestra in China; the Liepaja Symphony Orchestra in Latvia; the Thayer Symphony in Massachusetts; the Indiana Chamber Orchestra in Indianapolis, Indiana; and solo recitals in Italy, Poland, England, Germany, Japan, and Panama Republic. Umi’s most recent season’s highlights include a return engagement with Kirk Trevor and the Missouri Symphony Orchestra, a debut concert with Nicholas McGegan with the Pasadena Symphony and Pops, and the Winnipeg Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Alexander Mickelthwate, as well as performing at La Ciudad de las Ideas, an international conference in Puebla, Mexico. In addition, Umi gave solo recitals during her concert tour in thirty cities in fourteen states throughout the United States during the 2013/2014 season. She also gave solo recitals on the transatlantic Crystal Cruise ship from Spain to Miami. Umi was also chosen as one of “The 12 Most Talented Prodigies” for 2013 by The Huffington Post. Umi is a frequent guest artist at the Festival Lato z Chopinem, the Chopin Summer Festival in Busko-Zdroj in Poland. ●

As the 2002 competition winner at the Music Academy of the West, Ms. Domanski became the Marilyn Horne Foundation Awardee and was presented in recital, on national radio, and in a World Wide Web broadcast in October of that year. In January 2005, Deborah made her Weill Concert Hall debut as part of the Horne Foundation’s “The Song Continues” recital series at Carnegie Hall. She maintains her passion for the art of song recital and presents concerts and education programs around the world. In 2007, Deborah presented a recital in Delhi, India, entitled “Shaping the Invisible: Leonardo da Vinci’s Principles in Song.” After completing two years with the Pittsburgh Opera’s Young Artist Program, Deborah spent the summers of 2005 & 2006 with the Santa Fe Opera Apprentice Program, where her responsibilities included performing Mercedes in Carmen and covering Susan Graham in the role of Cecilio in Mozart’s Lucio Silla. ●

Ottmar Liebert Meet the Musicians Virginia Lawrence viola Virginia Lawrence, who prefers to be called Ginger, grew up in Michigan in an educated white-collar community where arts and culture were treasured. When she was in second grade, a violinist came to perform at her school. She was captivated by the sound of the instrument and began studying violin in the school music program. In high school, she transferred to viola, seduced by its warm sound and supporting harmonic role in the classical literature. As a student at Carleton College, Ginger concentrated on Music Theory and History, while pursuing viola studies with Dr. Harry Nordstrom. After three years, she ran away to join the Pink Garter Theatre in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, where she met and married her hippie partner. The couple came to New Mexico where Ginger attended UNM as a Music Ed major, studying with Dr. Kurt Frederick and playing in the Albuquerque Symphony Orchestra. They returned to Wyoming and dropped out for a few years, living off the grid in a primitive log cabin and raising two small children. However, summertime playing in the Grand Teton Music Festival was not enough to feed her soul through the long, cold winters spent skiing to and from the hovel in the woods, so the family returned to the beautiful skies and warmer climate of New Mexico and the New Mexico Symphony Orchestra. Ginger was librarian for the NMSO and performed with the Orchestra of Santa Fe, the Chamber Orchestra of Albuquerque, and the Santa Fe Symphony, where she was principal viola for a number of seasons. She continues with the Sunriver continued on 16 The New Mexico Philharmonic nmphil.org

Charitable Giving

Alternative Chartiable Gifts Options. We would like to invite you to consider an alternative way to make a charitable gift that might be very beneficial to you as well as to your New Mexico Philharmonic: the gift of stock. Gifting stock can provide huge tax advantages. Stock which you may have purchased at a very low cost can be gifted and be taken as a deduction at fair market value which can be much, much higher. You do not have to sell it nor pay capital gains tax on it, you simply gift it and receive a significant tax deduction. The NMPhil has an account with the Morgan Stanley/Smith Barney Brokerage Firm in Albuquerque, into which charitable gifts of stock may be received on our behalf. Several donors have already given the New Mexico Philharmonic shares of stock from their financial portfolios, based on their individual financial counseling. Perhaps the most meaningful benefit you will receive is knowing that you are helping to ensure that great symphonic music, performed by world-class artists, will continue to touch the souls of tens of thousands of music lovers as well as new generations of young musicians who will benefit from all the educational programs the NMPhil has to offer.
