Full textIn the second half of the 19th century Mendelssohn’s music played a prominent role in treatises upon composition. Especially the volumes on socalled „free composition“, including recommendations concernig musical forms, instrumentation and orchestration, often quote from his works. Mendelssohn claimed the figure of a model-composer. The paper concentrates on Mendelssohn as a model for young composers, as it was given by teachers at the Leipzig conservatoire. Treatises upon musical forms and instrumentation, written by Mendelssohn’s successors at the conservatoire show how the teachers on the one hand try to continue Mendelssohn’s compositional attitude and on the other hand try to part themselves from certain aspects of Mendelssohn’s music

Full textWhen Robert Spano joined the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra as music director in 2001, he brought with him a mission to change the soundscape of the American concert hall. His goal, to gradually change the public’s perception of new music by introducing accessible works of lesser-known living American composers, led to sustained partnerships with the composers that came to be known as the Atlanta School. In this project I trace the formation of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra up to Spano’s appointment as Music Director. I then examine Spano’s model for commissioning new works as both an effective means of disseminating new music and an attempt to “plug into” the standard repertoire. Finally, I explore the notion of “accessibility” as it emerged in the nineteenth century to distinguish between classes of music and to show how the term is wielded in much the same way today to keep modernist ideologies in control of the canon.

Full textPh.D.;
Contemporary classical concert music could be part of the solution to build a just and sustainable future. My research demonstrates that such music, despite its niche, elitist positioning in contemporary American society, can contribute to social movements and change the world in meaningful, tangible ways when attention is paid to social movement strategy and structures of power. To reconsider the potential power of this music, I apply a range of methodologies from ethnography to hermeneutic analysis to nonviolent direct action strategy, drawing on the work of musicologists, ethnomusicologists, and social movement theorists. Given the elitism of the classical concert hall, it is a non-obvious genre in which to convey a social justice or leftist political theme, yet many composers try to do so. I examine five of these composers in depth: Laura Kaminsky, David Lang, Curt Cacioppo, Ludovico Einaudi, and Hannibal (who goes by other names but used the mononym Hannibal in the concert which I discuss). Concurrently with my research, I composed a large-scale experimental work to be used in a protest to demonstrate the potential for contemporary classical music to support nonviolent movements. I organized a pilot performance that brought together music students and community members in the lobby of a large utility headquarters as part of an ongoing campaign for local green jobs in Philadelphia.
