PROGRAM AT A GLANCE LOUISE FARRENC

Overture No. 1 in E minor, Opus 23 Louise Farrenc was born in Paris, France, on May 31, 1804, and died there on September 15, 1875. Farrenc composed her Overture No. 1 in 1834, and it was premiered in Paris in 1835. At age 15 she made history by attending the previously all-male composition class of Anton Reicha at the Paris Conservatoire. During the 19th century, she was also the only woman to hold the permanent position of piano professor at the Paris Conservatoire. These performances mark the Pittsburgh Symphony premiere of the Overture, as well as the first time performing a work by Louise Farrenc. The score calls for two flutes, two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons, four horns, two trumpets, three trombones, timpani, and strings. Performance time: 8 minutes

EDVARD GRIEG

Concerto in A minor for Piano and Orchestra, Opus 16 Edvard Grieg was born in Bergen, Norway, on June 15, 1843, and died there on September 4, 1907. Grieg composed his Concerto in A minor for Piano and Orchestra in 1868 – 1869. It was premiered in Copenhagen by the Royal Danish Orchestra with conductor Holger Simon Paulli and pianist Edmund Neuport on April 3, 1869. Grieg’s Concerto is most recognizable by its spectacularly bold opening that draws all attention to the piano soloist. The Pittsburgh Symphony first performed the Concerto with conductor Victor Herbert and soloist Fannie Bloomfield-Zeisler at Carnegie Music Hall in 1900, and most recently with conductor Mark Elder and pianist Yulianna Avdeeva at Heinz Hall in March 2020. The score calls for piccolo, two flutes, two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons, four horns, two trumpets, three trombones, timpani, and strings. Performance time: 32 minutes

JOHANNES BRAHMS

Symphony No. 2 in D major, Opus 73 Johannes Brahms was born in Hamburg, Germany, on May 7, 1833, and died in Vienna, Austria, on April 3, 1897. Brahms composed his Symphony No. 2 in D major in 1877, and it was premiered by the Vienna Philharmonic and conductor Hans Richter on December 30, 1877. The Pittsburgh Symphony first performed the Symphony with conductor Victor Herbert at Carnegie Music Hall in November 1898, and most recently with Manfred Honeck at Heinz Hall in September 2018. The orchestra released a recording of the Symphony with conductor Marek Janowski in 2007, as well as with William Steinberg in 1961. Steinberg's recording of Brahms Symphony No. 2 was nominated for a GRAMMY® Award for Classical Album of the Year in 1962. The score calls for woodwinds in pairs, four horns, two trumpets, three trombones, tuba, timpani, and strings. Performance time: 41 minutes

LOUISE FARRENC

Overture No. 1 in E minor, Opus 23 (1834)

There are few better examples in the history of music of innate genius, rigorous training, steadfast ambition and sheer hard work overcoming seemingly insurmountable obstacles than Louise Farrenc. She was born Louise Dumont in Paris on May 31, 1804 (five months after Berlioz arrived in the world) into a distinguished artistic family — her father and brother were both Prix de Romewinning sculptors — and started studying piano and music theory at age six. She so impressed the piano virtuosos Moscheles and Hummel with her playing when they performed in Paris that they gave her lessons, and at fifteen she broke a significant gender barrier by being accepted into the previously all-male composition class of Anton Reicha at the Paris Conservatoire. Two years later she married Aristide Farrenc, a flutist at the Théâtre Italien, a respected teacher and the recent founder of a music publishing firm. During the 1830s, Louise Farrenc established an impressive career in Paris as a pianist, composer and teacher, and undertook several concert tours around the country with her husband, which often included pieces of hers he had published.

Farrenc began composing seriously during those years, not just character pieces, variations and études for her own instrument but also large-scale chamber and orchestral works — two piano quintets, two piano trios, a nonet and sextet for mixed ensembles, and sonatas for cello and violin, as well as two overtures and three symphonies, which received notable performances. After the premiere of her Symphony No. 3 in April 1849, the male-centric Gazette Musicale allowed that “she revealed, alone among her sex in musical Europe, genuine learning united with grace and taste.” She was honored in 1861 and 1869 by the Institut de France with the Chartier Prize for her “contributions to chamber music.” Farrenc’s achievement in the challenging abstract classical genres was even more remarkable because hardly any other significant French composer was then writing such pieces, concentrating instead on band music, trifles for home entertainment or, principally, works for the state-subsidized Opéra and Opéra-Comique. (Berlioz did write four iconoclastic symphonies, but they were all formed around an external program and remained problematic for him to perform in Paris throughout his life.) In 1842, Farrenc was appointed piano professor at the Paris Conservatoire and she distinguished herself in that capacity for the next three decades as the only woman to hold such a prominent permanent position at the school during the entire 19th century. (After she had established herself there, she demanded and — remarkably — received equal pay with the comparably senior male members of the faculty, nearly doubling her salary.) She also became known as a historical musicologist, collaborating with her husband in researching, editing and publishing two dozen volumes of Le trésor [treasure] des pianistes, a comprehensive anthology of harpsichord and piano music encompassing 300 years. When Louise Farrenc died in Paris on September 15, 1875 she was regarded as one of the foremost female musicians of her time.

Farrenc first broached the orchestral genres in 1834 with two concert overtures: the first (E minor, Op. 23) was finished that summer, the second (E-flat major, Op. 24) by December. No. 1 was performed in Paris in 1835 and No. 2 in 1840, when Farrenc was in the midst of writing her three symphonies. The “concert overture” — a piece not associated with a stage production — was still a brand new form at that time. The ones that did exist — Berlioz’s Waverly (premiered 1828), King Lear (1833) and Rob Roy (1833), Mendelssohn’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream (1827), Hebrides (1832), Calm Sea and Prosperous Voyage (1832) and The Fair Melusine (1834) — had drawn on literary sources, so Schubert’s three overtures of 1817 (D. 556, 590, 591) were among the few earlier such pieces without referential qualities. The pioneering spirit of Farrenc’s overtures is even more remarkable because only Berlioz’s works and A Midsummer Night’s Dream had been performed in Paris by 1834.

8

Each of Farrenc’s overtures follows a well-crafted and finely orchestrated sonata form. The Overture No. 1 opens with an introduction whose broad gait and noble gravity pay homage to the opening of many of Haydn’s mature symphonies. The main theme is swift and agitated; the complementary subject, begun by the clarinet, is lyrical and more relaxed in mood. The development section skillfully weaves the lyrical phrases of the second theme with the agitated rhythms of the main theme. After a full stop, the materials of the exposition are recapitulated to close this too-littleknown work by one of France’s most gifted 19th-century musicians.

EDVARD GRIEG

Concerto in A minor for Piano and Orchestra, Opus 16 (1868-1869)

Grieg completed his studies at the Leipzig Conservatory in 1863. Rather than heading directly home to Norway, however, he settled in Copenhagen to study privately with Niels Gade, at that time Denmark’s most prominent musician and generally regarded as the founder of the Scandinavian school of composition. Back in Norway, Grieg’s creative work was concentrated on the large forms advocated by his Leipzig teachers and by Gade. By 1867, he had produced the Piano Sonata, the first two Violin and Piano Sonatas, a Symphony (long unpublished and made available only as recently as 1981) and the concert overture In Autumn. He also carried on his work to promote native music, and gave an unprecedented concert exclusively of Norwegian compositions in 1866. Grieg arranged to have the summer of 1868 free of duties, and he returned to Denmark for an extended vacation at a secluded retreat at Sölleröd, where he began his Piano Concerto. He thoroughly enjoyed that summer, sleeping late, taking long walks, eating well, and tipping a glass in the evenings with friends at the local inn. The sylvan setting spurred his creative energies, and the new Concerto was largely completed by the time he returned to Norway in the fall.

Grieg’s Piano Concerto closed the youthful period of his life devoted to large-scale compositions.

In 1869, a year after the Concerto was written, he discovered Aeldre og nyere fjeldmelodier, Lindemann’s collection of Norwegian folk tunes. Grieg turned his attention thereafter to the idealization of the folk song in miniature musical works, producing only three compositions of sonata length during his remaining forty years. The Concerto exhibits some of the folk-influenced characteristics that mark Grieg’s later works, but it is also firmly entrenched in the German Romantic tradition of Schumann’s Piano Concerto.

The first movement opens with a bold summons by the soloist. The main theme is given by the woodwinds and taken over almost immediately by the piano. A flashing transition, filled with skipping rhythms, leads to the second theme, a tender cello melody wrapped in the warm harmonies of the trombones. An episodic development section, launched by the full orchestra playing the movement’s opening motive, is largely based on the main theme in dialogue. The recapitulation returns the earlier themes, after which the piano displays a tightly woven cadenza.

The stern introductory measures are recalled to close the movement.

Hans von Bülow called Grieg “the Chopin of the North,” and that appellation is nowhere more justified than in the nocturnal second movement. A song filled with sentiment and nostalgia is played by the strings and rounded off by touching phrases in the solo horn. The soloist weaves elaborate musical filigree above the simple accompaniment before the lovely song returns in an PROGRAM NOTES 2021-2022 SEASON

enriched setting. The finale follows almost without pause. Themes constructed in the rhythms of a popular Norwegian dance, the halling, dominate the outer sections of the movement. The movement’s central portion presents a wonderful melodic inspiration, introduced by the solo flute, that derives from the dreamy atmosphere of the preceding movement. The dance rhythms return and gather increasing momentum. A grandiloquent restatement by the full orchestra of the theme of the movement’s central section brings this evergreen work to a stirring close.

JOHANNES BRAHMS

Symphony No. 2 in D major, Opus 73 (1877)

In the summer of 1877, Brahms repaired to the village of Pörtschach in the Carinthian hills of southern Austria. He wrote to a Viennese friend, “Pörtschach is an exquisite spot, and I have found a lovely and apparently pleasant abode in the Castle! You may tell everybody this; it will impress them.... The place is replete with Austrian coziness and kindheartedness.” The lovely country surroundings inspired Brahms’ creativity to such a degree that he wrote to the critic Eduard Hanslick, “So many melodies fly about, one must be careful not to tread on them.” Brahms plucked from the gentle Pörtschach breezes a surfeit of beautiful music for his Second Symphony, which was apparently written quickly during that summer — a great contrast to the fifteen-year gestation of the preceding symphony. He brought the finished manuscript with him when he returned to Vienna at the end of the summer.

After the premiere, Brahms himself allowed that the Second Symphony “sounded so merry and tender, as though it were especially written for a newly wedded couple.” Early listeners heard in it “a glimpse of Nature, a spring day amid soft mosses, springing woods, birds’ notes and the bloom of flowers.” Richard Specht, the composer’s biographer, found it “suffused with the sunshine and warm winds playing on the waters.” The conductor Felix Weingartner thought it the best of Brahms’ four symphonies: “The stream of invention has never flowed so fresh and spontaneous in other works by Brahms, and nowhere else has he colored his orchestration so successfully.”

To which critic Olin Downes added, “In his own way, and sometimes with long sentences, he formulates his thought, and the music has the rich chromaticism, depth of shadow and significance of detail that characterize a Rembrandt portrait.”

The Symphony opens with a three-note motive, presented softly by the low strings, which is the germ seed from which much of the thematic material of the movement grows. The horns sing the principal theme, which includes, in its third measure, the three-note motive. The sweet second theme is given in duet by the cellos and violas. The development begins with the horn’s main theme, but is mostly concerned with permutations of the three-note motive around which some stormy emotional sentences accumulate. The placid mood of the opening returns with the recapitulation, and remains largely undisturbed until the end of the movement.

The second movement plumbs the deepest emotions in the Symphony. Many of its early listeners found it difficult to understand because they failed to perceive that, in constructing the four broad paragraphs comprising the Second Symphony, Brahms deemed it necessary to balance the radiant first movement with music of thoughtfulness and introspection in the second. This movement actually covers a wide range of sentiments, shifting, as it does, between light and shade — major 10

and minor. Its form is sonata-allegro, whose second theme is a gently syncopated strain intoned by the woodwinds above the cellos’ pizzicato notes.

The following Allegretto is a delightful musical sleight-of-hand. The oboe presents a naive, folklike tune in moderate triple meter as the movement’s principal theme. The strings take over the melody in the first Trio, but play it in an energetic duple-meter transformation. The return of the sedate original theme is again interrupted by another quick-tempo variation, this one a further development of motives from Trio I. A final traversal of the main theme closes this delectable movement.

The finale bubbles with the rhythmic energy and high spirits of a Haydn symphony. The main theme starts with a unison gesture in the strings, but soon becomes harmonically active and spreads through the orchestra. The second theme is a broad, hymnal melody initiated by the strings. The development section, like that of many of Haydn’s finales, begins with a statement of the main theme in the tonic before branching into discussion of the movement’s motives. The recapitulation recalls the earlier themes, and leads with an inexorable drive through the triumphant coda (based on the hymnal melody) to the brazen glow of the final trombone chord.

PABLO HERAS-CASADO Pablo Heras-Casado enjoys an unusually varied and broad-ranging career, encompassing the great symphonic and operatic repertoire, historically informed performances, and contemporary scores. A musical character best reflected by the quality of the long-term relationships nurtured with prestigious orchestras around the world, he continues to develop new connections and exciting programming each year.

In great demand as guest conductor, he regularly appears in Europe with the Philharmonia and London Symphony orchestras, Orchestre de Paris, Münchner Philharmoniker, Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks, Staatskapelle Berlin, Orchestra dell’Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia, Tonhalle-Orchester Zürich and Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, amongst numerous others. He has also conducted the Berliner and Wiener Philharmoniker, the Mariinsky Theatre Orchestra, while in North America he is seen with the symphony orchestras of San Francisco, Chicago, Pittsburgh, Minnesota, Philadelphia, the Los Angeles Philharmonic or the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal. Heras-Casado was Principal Conductor of Orchestra of St. Luke’s in New York between 2011 and 2017, having performed at Carnegie Hall and recorded together with it.

In the operatic field, he currently leads Wagner’s complete Ring Cycle over four consecutive seasons, at Teatro Real in Madrid, where he is Principal Guest Conductor, reaching its conclusion this season.

“The Music coloured the colours. I painted the picture and made the colours quiver with the rhythm of the music.” Edvard Munch, from The Origins of the Frieze of Life, Oslo 1890, published 1928.

Celebrate two of Norway’s most noted Edvards, composer Grieg and artist Munch, whose creative spirits shaped Norway’s cultural and national identities. Grieg, a Romantic era composer, elevated traditional Norwegian music weaving tunes in and out of his classical interpretations. Munch led Norwegian visual arts into the modern era first as a Symbolist painter then as a pioneer of Expressionism for which he is best known today. Both continue to “colorfully” inspire and intrigue.

FRANZ JOSEPH HAYDN

Concerto in E-flat major for Trumpet and Orchestra, H.VIIe:1 Franz Joseph Haydn was born in Rohrau, Austria, on March 31, 1732, and died in in Vienna on May 31, 1809. Haydn wrote his Concerto in E-flat major for Trumpet and Orchestra in 1796, and it was premiered in Vienna by soloist Anton Weidinger and the Vienna Court Orchestra in 1796. After the creation of a so-called “keyed trumpet,” Haydn was so inspired that he wrote the Concerto to demonstrate this new instrument – which has now become a core part of trumpet literature. The Pittsburgh Symphony first performed the Concerto with conductor William Steinberg and soloist Charles Hois at Syria Mosque in November 1961, and most recently performed it with conductor Jerzy Semkow and soloist George Vosburgh at Heinz Hall in March 2002. The score calls for flutes, oboes, bassoons, horns, and trumpets in pairs, and timpani and strings. Performance time: 13 minutes

IGOR STRAVINSKY

Suite from Pulcinella (1919-1920)

The idea for Pulcinella originated with impresario Serge Diaghilev for the 1920 Paris season of his Ballet Russe. He engaged Léonide Massine to choreograph the piece and devise the scenario, Pablo Picasso to do the decor and costumes, and for the work’s musical substance suggested that Stravinsky mine the music of Giovanni Battista Pergolesi (1710-1736), a musical meteor who flashed briefly across the Italian artistic firmament and created several important instrumental and operatic pieces that laid the foundations of the Classical style. Stravinsky selected for Diaghilev’s new ballet several movements from Pergolesi’s trio sonatas and arias from two operas, and added to those musical bits by some of Pergolesi’s contemporaries. In general, he kept the bass lines and melodies of his models intact, but added to them his own spicy harmonies and invigorating rhythmic fillips, and then illuminated the whole piece with a brilliant orchestration.

Stravinsky’s role in Pulcinella, however, was far more than that of simply transcriber or arranger.

He not only created a cogent work of art from a wide variety of previously unrelated pieces, but also gave a new perspective to both his own and Pergolesi’s music. “Pulcinella,” he recalled in Dialogues and a Diary, “was my discovery of the past — but it was a look in the mirror, too.” With this music, Stravinsky found a manner in which to apply earlier styles and techniques to his own compositional needs, a discovery that was to provide the inspiration for his works for the next thirty years. “Art about art” is American composer and critic Eric Salzman’s perfect phrase describing the essence of Stravinsky’s neo-classical aesthetic during the ensuing three decades.

The plot of Pulcinella was based on an 18th-century manuscript of commedia dell’arte plays that Diaghilev discovered in Naples. Stravinsky provided the following synopsis: “All the local girls are in love with Pulcinella; but the young men to whom they are betrothed are mad with jealousy and plot to kill him. The minute they think they have succeeded, they borrow costumes resembling Pulcinella’s to present themselves to their sweethearts in disguise. But Pulcinella — cunning fellow! — has already changed places with a double, who pretends to succumb to their blows. The real Pulcinella, disguised as a magician, now resuscitates his double. At the very moment when the young men, thinking they are rid of their rival, come to claim their sweethearts, Pulcinella appears and arranges all the marriages. He himself weds Pimpinella, receiving the blessing of his double, who in his turn has assumed the magician’s mantle.”

The movements of the suite from Pulcinella, based on movements by Pergolesi and his contemporaries, serve as a précis of the ballet’s music and story. The exuberant Sinfonia (Overture) is based on the opening movement of Pergolesi’s Trio Sonata No. 1 in G major. The movements that follow accompany the entrances of the Neapolitan girls who try to attract Pulcinella’s attention with their dances. (The Serenata derives from a pastorale in Act I of Pergolesi’s opera Flaminio; the Scherzino, Allegro and Andantino are all borrowed from trio sonatas by the Venetian violinist and composer Domenico Gallo.) The Tarantella (from the fourth movement of Fortunato Chelleri’s Concertino No. 6 in B-flat major) portrays the confusion when Pulcinella is apparently restored to life. The five movements that close the suite accompany the events from the point when the young men claim their sweethearts until the end of the ballet. The Toccata and Gavotte are based on anonymous harpsichord pieces; the Duetto on Pergolesi’s F major Cello Sonata; the Minuetto on a canzone from his comic opera Lo frate ’nnamorato; and the Finale on a trio sonata by Gallo.

FRANZ JOSEPH HAYDN

Concerto in E-flat major for Trumpet and Orchestra, H.VIIe:1 (1796)

When Haydn returned to Vienna from the second of his two triumphant stays in London, he was the most famous and lionized musician in Europe. He had achieved his renown by straddling the fine line between conservatism and experimentation, and the Trumpet Concerto shows that he had no intention of changing his ways, even though he was well into his seventh decade.

Sometime in the 1790s, Anton Weidinger, a trumpeter in the Court Orchestra in Vienna, developed a new instrument, the so-called “keyed trumpet” — rather like a bugle with saxophone keys — which was only one of the many mechanical and acoustical experiments of the time intended to expand the range and chromatic possibilities of the brass instruments. The inventor demonstrated his new keyed trumpet to Haydn, and the composer was so taken with it, and with Weidinger’s skill as a performer, that he agreed to write a piece for him. Haydn’s enthusiasm notwithstanding, Weidinger’s invention was flawed in that its tone quality was dulled by its key mechanism. It never found much acceptance among players, and hardly outlasted its maker. The splendid Concerto that Haydn composed for it, however, is among the jewels of the trumpet literature, and is one of the outstanding examples of his creative art.

Haydn’s concerto output was not large, probably because he himself was no virtuoso performer and did not need such works for his own concerts, as did Mozart. He had not written a concerted work for over ten years when he tackled this one for trumpet in 1796, and it was to be not only his last piece in the genre, but also his final symphonic composition — “a fitting farewell to Haydn’s orchestral career,” according to the eminent Haydn scholar H.C. Robbins Landon. The work is in the traditional three movements, but the style of writing for the trumpet is decidedly advanced for its date of composition. No longer is the solo part restricted to only the notes available on the natural instrument (a limitation which produced the chordal, fanfare-like melodies that characterize the trumpet concertos of the Baroque era), since Haydn instead reveled in the new instrument’s expanded possibilities for scalar and chromatic figurations.

The first movement opens quietly with an orchestral presentation of the thematic material. The trumpet then takes up the principal subject before launching into the chromatic adventure that is the second theme. The development section and the recapitulation further exploit the agility and range of the solo instrument, and are an enduring testimony to the excellent ability of Haydn’s trumpet-playing friend. The slow second movement is a lovely flight of serene melody whose chromatic middle section owes much to the touching Andantes of Haydn’s younger colleague, Wolfgang Mozart, already dead five years in 1796. The spirited finale is a sonata-rondo, the hybrid form of which Haydn was fond for closing movements. It is not only a fine specimen of the perfect balance and structural clarity of a master composer at the height of his powers, but also a sparkling showpiece for the soloist.

PIOTR ILYICH TCHAIKOVSKY

Symphony No. 2 in C minor, Opus 17, “Little Russian” (1872-1873)

Looking back through the mists of time to the closing decades of Imperial Russia, it might at first seem that an unwavering unanimity joined together the music from Glinka through Borodin, Mussorgsky, Rimsky-Korsakov and Tchaikovsky to Scriabin and Rachmaninoff. Upon closer examination of the lives and philosophies of those men, however, bitter enmities are revealed.

The group of musical nationalists known in the West as “The Five” — Cui, Borodin, Mussorgsky, Balakirev and Rimsky-Korsakov — were all amateur musicians determined to establish a distinctly Russian school of composition based upon native folk and church music, history and lore. In this, they followed the lead of Mikhail Glinka, revered as the father of Russian concert music. They belligerently defended their untutored status on the basis that their lack of formal training freed them from German musical hegemony, and allowed them to penetrate more directly into the heart of the Russian ethos. They looked upon the Russian graduates of the leading conservatories almost as traitors to the nationalistic cause they espoused, and Tchaikovsky was among their especially favored targets. For his part, the well-trained Tchaikovsky could hardly help but look down on the rough-hewn music of The Five. He once castigated Mussorgsky’s work in a letter to his brother Modeste as “the lowest, commonest parody of music; it may go to the devil for all I care.”

Still, there was inevitably frequent contact between these two factions, and eventually a laissez-faire understanding was achieved. Rimsky-Korsakov decided to forsake the ranks of the uneducated, and taught himself the techniques of music well enough to eventually become Russia’s most respected pedagogue, numbering Stravinsky and Respighi among his students. Tchaikovsky, though critical of their lack of professionalism, always respected the raw talent of the little group of nationalists, and he even agreed with their ideal of fostering Russian music. Like them, he felt drawn to the native traditions of his homeland, and once wrote to his benefactress, Mme von Meck, “As regards the Russian element in general in my music (i.e., the instances of melody and harmony originating in folksong), I grew up in the backwoods, saturating myself from earliest childhood with the inexplicable beauty of the characteristic traits of Russian folksong.” Unlike The Five, however, who felt that a free fantasia form could best express their ideas, Tchaikovsky believed that the Russian influence should be channeled into the traditional, Classical form of the symphony. It is not hard to understand, therefore, why Tchaikovsky was the first Russian composer widely appreciated in the Western world, whose tastes had so long been dominated by German music.

Despite their underlying differences, there were at least two significant instances in Tchaikovsky’s early life when he was musically drawn to The Five. One was when Balakirev suggested the topic and even the structure for his 1869 tone poem, Romeo and Juliet. Another was in this Second Symphony. After an exhausting year of teaching, composing and writing music criticism in Moscow, Tchaikovsky visited his beloved sister, Alexandra, in Kamenka in Ukraine in June 1872. He was refreshed during the summer months not only by the time spent with his family, but also by the chance to return to the country and its people. Among the things that he enjoyed most was hearing the peasants sing, and it may have been this rustic music that inspired the Second Symphony, just as it did many of the works of The Five. It was Tchaikovsky’s use in this Symphony of three folk tunes that he may have heard in Kamenka that caused the work to be nicknamed “Little Russian” by the critic Nikolai Kashkin in 1896. (The diminutive referred not to any characteristic of the work but rather to the Ukrainian region from which Tchaikovsky borrowed his themes, known in Tsarist days as “Little Russia.”)

20

The Symphony’s first movement is prefaced by a slow introduction based on a variant of the traditional Russian song Down by Mother Volga. The body of the movement’s sonata form begins with a quickening of the tempo and the presentation of the main theme, a vigorous, stormy strain; the lyrical second theme is presented by the clarinet. In the energetic development section these two melodies are intertwined with the folk tune from the introduction. A massive climax ends the development and leads into the recapitulation of the stormy main theme and the yearning complementary melody. The closing pages contain a quiet reminder of Down by Mother Volga from the horn and bassoon. The second movement was taken whole from Undine, Tchaikovsky’s unsuccessful opera of 1869. In the opera, this music was used as a wedding march, and in the Symphony it takes the place of the slow movement. The center of this three-part movement (A–B–A) is a treatment of Spin, My Spinner, one of the Fifty Russian Folksongs Tchaikovsky arranged for publication in 1868-1869. The third movement is a quicksilver Scherzo, whose central trio shifts rhythmic gears into a jaunty duple meter. The finale, a dazzling display of orchestral color and rhythmic exuberance, is a set of variations on the Ukrainian tune The Crane. A slow introduction for full orchestra presents the basic shape of the melody before the variations are begun by the strings. The tiny tune is presented over and over, each time appearing in a different orchestral vestment so that the variations are based as much on changing tone color as on melodic manipulation. As a foil to the movement’s propulsive rhythmic energy, Tchaikovsky added a lyrical melody, first heard in the violins and then repeated by the flutes. Joyous festivity, however, is at the heart of this music, and it is not kept long at bay by tender sentiment.

LEGACY OF EXCELLENCE

In addition to income from the Annual Fund, the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra is dependent on a robust endowment to assure its long-term financial stability. Gifts from Legacy of Excellence programs are directed to the endowment to provide for the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra’s future.

The Steinberg Society honors donors who have advised the Pittsburgh Symphony in writing that they have made a provision for the orchestra in their will. Endowed naming opportunities for guest artists, musicians’ chairs, concert series, educational programs or designated spaces allow donors to specify a name or tribute for 10 years, 20 years or in perpetuity. For additional information, please call 412.392.4880.

DAULER HEARING LOOP: A system to provide better sound to hearing aid and cochlear implant users.

If you use a hearing aid or have a cochlear implant, you can have an improved listening experience at Heinz Hall concerts and events!

The Dauler Hearing Loop runs throughout the auditorium, with the exception of the Orchestra pit, first four Orchestra level rows and Grand Box left. The hearing loop system also is installed at the Heinz Hall Box Office windows, allowing you to hear the amplified voice of Box Office personnel directly through t-coil enabled hearing aids.

VISIT OR CALL THE HEINZ HALL BOX OFFICE AT 412.392.4900 WITH ANY QUESTIONS. The Dauler Hearing Loop is named for late Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra trustee L. Van V. Dauler, Jr and was made possible through a gift from Randi & L. Van V. Dauler, Jr. and the Emma Clyde Hodge Memorial Foundation.

TO USE THE DAULER HEARING LOOP: If you have a hearing aid or cochlear implant with a telecoil (t-coil) you need to make sure the t-coil is activated and properly set by your audiologist. You can then activate the setting once in Heinz Hall. If you are not sure if your hearing aid has a t-coil or if you experience difficulty and require assistance, please contact your audiologist.

Sound heard through telecoils can vary from hearing aid to hearing aid and according to position in the theater. Generally, the best signal is found when you sit in the center of a row and facing toward the stage. If you need further assistance in selecting the best seats, please contact the Heinz Hall box office.
