Schubertiade projects

s_barton — 2021-03-13 17:36:39 UTC

Each group will prepare a mini Schubertiade.

Individual assessment.

Each student will perform an individual selection:

- an instrumental piece

- a vocal selection

- a poem

Preference (but not requirement) for music and poetry from the romantic, or an earlier time period.

The entire group will perform 'Die Forelle' (only the part that we have practiced).

'Die Forelle' sheet music can be found on the below (complete piano score), as can the chords for guitar, ukulele or piano. If you need any help: s.barton@ejm.net

Notes to be taken

Come to a Schubertiad! Schubert gave only one public concert in his life, and that was in his final year. But he gave dozens - maybe hundreds - of private, informal performances in the homes of his friends around Vienna.These became known as Schubertiads - usually impromptu affairs where Schubert would play a piano piece he had written just that morning, join another pianist in a duet, accompany a singer in some songs, or perhaps pick up a violin or viola to play a string quartet with some other musicians.There would be dance music pounded out at the piano by Schubert (no DJs in those days!) and choral music for those who liked to sing. And some people in the room just listened. But everyone drank, ate, talked, joked and had a good time. You might even think of a Schubertiad as a kind of nineteenth-century“jam” session.Discuss with your classmates how you could create your own Schubertiad.

À Chloris is beyond doubt the summit of Reynaldo Hahn’s art as a pasticheur, and it ranks as perhaps the most successful example of musical time-travelling in the French mélodie repertoire (if one excludes that peerless masterpiece of the madrigal style, Fauré’s Clair de lune). À Chloris has charm, elegance, gravity and the ability to move audiences—what more could one ask of a song, whether or not it is a pastiche? The fact that it is based on the striding bass line of Bach’s ‘Air on the G-string’ seems irrelevant: one smiles at the composer’s audacity at the beginning, but one stays to listen to the music, Hahn’s music, in its own right. It uses one of his favourite devices where the accompaniment is a piano piece with its own momentum; over this the voice embroiders an inspired overlay which seems half sung and half spoken, moving with conversational grace between whispered confidences and declarations of love in full voice. Here is a different world from the Charles d’Orléans settings—this is seventeenth-century France where the medieval has ceded to the baroque. All the grace of Louis XIII’s epoch seems encapsulated here, but there is also an undertone of sadness.
