noteS on the progrAm

sergei prokofiev (1891–1953) Symphony no. 5 in b-flat major, op. 100 following the german invasion of russia in 1941, prominent Soviet artists, including Sergei prokofiev, were evacuated from moscow. they were relocated first to the caucasus and later, when that area became endangered, further east into central Asia and Siberia.

All these wanderings, however, did not hinder prokofiev from accomplishing a prodigious amount of work: music for the film Ivan the Terrible and four other films, the opera War and Peace, the Second String Quartet, the Seventh and eighth piano Sonatas, the ballet Cinderella, and the flute Sonata. with the turn in the fortunes of the war in the winter 1943– 44, prokofiev was able to return to moscow and immediately set about composing his Symphony no. 5. it was a time of national elation as the Soviet union anticipated the impending victory over nazi germany. the composer considered the work a milestone: “i was returning to the symphonic form after a break of 16 years. the fifth Symphony is the culmination of an entire period in my work. i conceived it as a symphony on the greatness of the human soul.” whether this comment represents his true intent or a statement for official consumption we will never know. mindful of the Soviet authorities, who maintained tight control of all the arts, prokofiev, like Shostakovich, composed the Symphony in the patriotic, “officially-sanctioned” language that he had used in the dramatic works of the late 1930s and early 1940s, the film scores Alexander Nevsky and Ivan the Terrible, and the opera War and Peace. his model was Shostakovich’s Symphony no. 5, in which traditional symphonic structure, broad dramatic themes and conservative harmonies—the “Soviet reality” demanded by the authorities—still allowed for

adequate personal expression. prokofiev conducted the premiere of the Symphony in the great hall of the moscow conservatory on January 13, 1945, in what turned out to be his last appearance as a conductor and one of the most dramatic premieres ever. everybody who was anybody was in the audience. the event is best described in the words of pianist Sviatoslav richter: “the great hall was illuminated, no doubt, as it always was, but when prokofiev stood up, the light seemed to pour straight down on him from somewhere up above. he stood like a monument on a pedestal. And then, when prokofiev had taken his place on the podium and silence reigned in the hall, artillery salvos suddenly thundered forth. his baton was raised. he waited, and began only after the cannons had stopped. there was something very significant in this—something symbolic.” the salvo was a tribute to the red Army which that day had crossed the vistula river in poland in its march into germany. A few days later prokofiev suffered a fall and concussion, never to regain his full health. like Shostakovich, prokofiev’s stock declined in the west during the period of the cold war, not so much with music directors and the public, but rather in the music academies, where strict atonality and the austere 12-tone works of Schoenberg and his disciples of the Second viennese School reigned supreme. the issue was less one of political ideology than musical; the trend-setting composers of the west regarded the tonal, melodic style of the russians passé in the relentless onward progression of “serious” music. the eminently singable themes of the fifth Symphony have made it, along with the first, the most popular of prokofiev’s instrumental works. it is one of the symphonic repertory’s most dazzlingly orchestrated works with wonderful solos, section solos and brilliant percussion writing. As befitted the occasion, the Symphony opens with a grand Andante movement with a sweeping main theme supported by the timpani and brass that

The AusTin symphony

Sergei prokofiev

overpowers the lighter subsidiary themes. the second movement provides a sharp contrast, a scherzo marked allegro marcato that consists of two main themes, which are passed around the orchestra. the trio, featuring the upper winds, temporarily slows the pace, but a new theme brings in more orchestral solos. the brilliantly dramatic transition back to the scherzo begins slowly, gradually accelerating and restating increasingly longer bits of the theme. like mozart and Shostakovich, prokofiev was a master of the gut-wrenching slow movement. but the Adagio of the fifth Symphony is not an intimate expression; in its formality it is more funereal, perhaps recalling the millions of the russian fallen. it is in conventional A-b-A form, the first part a gentle, sinuous extended phrase over pianissimo triplets in the violins with cellos basses bowed to sound like deep russian church bells. the second section includes the first instance in this work of typically

russian folk-like themes and builds to a climax with the sound of the tolling bells. the return to the first theme is varied but recaptures the contemplative mood of the opening.

A quiet reprise of the opening of the Symphony serves as an introduction to the finale, an exultant celebration. while the first part of the movement is subdued, it is clear that the composer has deliberately withheld the biggest sound for last. the coda alone lasts a full two minutes, a buildup of tension using a gradual crescendo that adds more and more instruments, delayed harmonic resolution Download the app: Connect: and an unexpected final pianissimo—all over an ostinato in the violins and upper winds—leading up to the final “big bang.”

A World Apart, A Moment Together One World & TRIAD funds of the San Antonio Area Foundation Connecting Central Texas Military Families One World’s innovative performing arts summer camp program provided scholarships through TRIAD funds of the San Antonio Area Foundation to give kids the opportunity to be a part of the musical production of “Wizard of Oz.” When the campers took the stage every parent, no matter where they were located, including Iraq was able to see their child perform.

Using amazing video technology generously provided by a partnership with LifeSize Communications, seven military bases were connected to One World Theatre, so that parent and child could see, talk and interact with each other as if they were in the same room. After the performance, each child and their family was given the opportunity to talk privately with their loved one, keeping the bond of family alive across the miles.
