Eine ›heroische‹ Neunte? Dmitri Schostakowitschs Neunte Sinfonie im Vergleich mit Ludwig van Beethoenvs Sinfonien Nr. 3 und 9
Full text linkVon Dmitri Schostakowitsch wurde zum Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs eine Siegessinfonie erwartet. Dass es sich zudem um die Neunte handelte – jene Zahl die seit Beethoven einen ganz besonderen Glanz ausstrahlt –, verstärkte diese Erwartung noch. Schostakowitsch aber unterlief diese Vorgaben – und scheint sich doch, wie hier gezeigt wird, an Beethoven (genauer: dessen Sinfonien Nr. 3 und 9) zu orientieren

To Play or Not to Play
Full text linkThe present volume brings together the results of a multidisciplinary research project on corrosion inside historical brass instruments. In this SNSF-funded project Brass Instruments Between Preventive Conservation and Use in Historically Informed Performance, the Hochschule der Künste Bern collaborated with the Swiss National Museum, the Paul Scherrer Institute, the Institute for Building Materiales at ETH and Klingendes Museum Bern, among others. The results – here complemented with further contributions on the topic of conservation of brass instruments, especially in museum settings – have been presented at the Fourth International Romantic Brass Symposium (2017), organised together with the International Committee for Museums and Collections of Instruments and Music (CIMCIM). Musicological and organological questions meet chemical and physical analyses, which in turn are considered in terms of their manageability and practical relevance in the museum context
Beethoven and the Piano
No full textTogether with the symphonies and the string quartets, Beethoven’s piano works constitute the core of his output both in terms of their compositional ambitiousness as well as their reception. This book reflects the state of the art for research on these topics on the occasion of the Beethoven jubilee year 2020. Beethoven’s piano works are considered from three main perspectives: performance practice, philology, and the technical development of the piano. The relationship between the notated score and its realisation is a key issue in performance practice studies: how much and what kind of information is implied in the presence or absence of certain notational signs ? If no indication is present, the performer is expected to resort to common standard practice. But what was the standard practice in the time of deep transformation in which Beethoven lived? And was the composer himself not constantly unsettling the rules and consciously working against expectations of all kinds
