Robert schumann (1810 –1856) manfred overture, op. 115
edward macDowell (1861–1908) piano concerto no. 2 in D minor, op. 29
the arch-romantic robert Schumann was captivated by the poetry of lord Byron, in particular with the gloomy self-indulgent poem, manfred. the poem has no real plot or action. rather, it describes a Faustian anti-hero consumed by guilt over an unnamed sin involving his half-sister, Astarte. Manfred conjures seven ghosts to cast a spell of forgetfulness, but they cannot change the past, and he commits suicide by jumping off the Jungfrau summit in Switzerland. (Byron himself was forced to flee england because of a scandal over his incestuous affair with his own half-sister, Augusta leigh; the poem was written shortly thereafter.) not surprisingly, the poem appealed also to tchaikovsky—tortured by his own sexual conflicts—who used it as the inspiration for his manfred Symphony. in 1848–49 Schumann composed an overture, 15 accompanied recitations, and choruses for the poem. the overture, which was first performed and published in 1852, is the only segment currently in the repertoire. the rest of the music has rarely been performed, mainly because of the questionable value and lack of drama of the text. From the start, Schumann considered the overture one of his most successful orchestral works, “one of the finest of my brain-children.” Among his other “brain-children” at the time of its composition were auditory hallucinations, manifestations of the mental disorder that led to his confinement and death. the music begins with a slow introduction that highlights Manfred’s brooding nature and leads into an Allegro labeled, “in a passionate tempo.”
edward MacDowell was the first American composer of concert music to gain wide acceptance in europe. Born in new york, he moved with his family to paris and, later, germany so that he could receive european training in both piano and composition. influenced by the german late romantic tradition, his music reflects the language of one of his main supporters, Franz liszt, then the resident guru in weimar, and that of his composition teacher in Frankfurt, the composer Joachim raff. MacDowell returned to the United States in 1888 teaching, composing and performing his own music. in 1896 he was appointed as the first professor of Music at columbia University but resigned in 1904 amidst a growing public conflict with the university administration. He died four years later from complications of neurosyphilis. MacDowell was active in the founding and promotion of several academic societies, including the American Academy of Arts and letters and the American Academy in rome, which are still flourishing. At the end of his life, MacDowell founded an artists’ colony at his summer residence in peterborough, new Hampshire, that remains a haven for emerging and established artists in all fields to pursue their work in this quiet retreat.

All the same it reminds me of dark times.” the unusually long, slow introduction to the Symphony combines and interweaves two themes: a slow horn fanfare combined with a dark theme on the strings. there follows a brief duet for the oboes in a motive that will recur throughout the movement and even later in the Symphony. one of the most interesting features of this symphony is the way in which Schumann incorporates the motivic material from the introduction into the Allegro. the tempo and tension increase until the aggressive main allegro theme erupts, immediately incorporating the oboe duet from the introduction. the movement ends with a coda that incorporates all the themes, including a triumphant statement of the opening horn theme—now blasting out on a trumpet. the following Scherzo continues the battle of the contrasting moods. the theme is extremely agitated—perhaps reflecting the composer’s mania. He then repeats his innovation from his “Spring” Symphony (no. 1), in having two contrasting trios: the first lively and staccato, the second dreamy and legato. those who doubt a psychological interpretation of the musical material need only venture into Schumann’s writings and his early piano music, especially carnaval, where Schumann devotes two of the movements to the manic and contemplative aspects of his own personality, actually giving them names, Florestan and eusebius, respectively. the third movement is one of Schumann’s most moving utterances. Marked Adagio espressivo, it is based on a single passionate melody introduced on the violins and immediately picked up by a solo oboe. But it is the motive created by the opening four notes, with their intense unresolved pathos that the composer dwells on, continually returning to it in the course of the movement, often using different pitches but retaining the same languorous sighing shape. orchestrating this

movement sapped Schumann’s emotional energy and he had to put the symphony aside for an extended rest. As he wrote to a friend in a letter accompanying the manuscript, “it will tell you of many joys and sorrows.” Schumann spent much of his convalescent time in 1845 intensively studying the music of Bach, and some scholars have remarked on the similarity between Schumann’s adagio theme and the first movement of the trio Sonata from Bach’s A Musical offering. After the heart-felt Adagio, the Finale bursts forth with a joyous voice, corresponding to Schumann’s statement that he was feeling himself again. it is extremely unusual for its time, in that it does not correspond to any of the classical structures for symphonic movements. in sharp contrast to the monothematic Adagio, the Finale consists of a series of themes, including a transformation of the Adagio melody. Schumann ties the Symphony together by restating the opening horn call and theme from the introduction. program notes by: Joseph & elizabeth kahn wordpros@mindspring.com www.wordprosmusic.com

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.
