Scherzo Capriccioso, Op. 66 | Antonín Dvorák Scherzo Capriccioso expanded upon the sound world of Dvořák’s “Slavonic Dances” in the same way an artist would expand a small pencil sketch into a full-size oil painting on canvas.

Hungarian Dance No. 4 | Johannes Brahms Brahms began his touring career at the age of 17! While on tour, the Hungarian and Romani folk music he heard eventually inspired the “Hungarian Dances.”

Brahms wrote two books of “Hungarian Dances,” initially intended as piano duets with fellow composer and pianist Clara Schumann.

Slavonic Dance Op. 46 No. 8 | Antonín Dvorák “Slavonic Dances” established the young composer as a distinctively Czech musical voice.

For more Dvořák join us on February 20th for “Lubbock Symphony Presents: Filharmonie Brno” and on February 25th for “Catch Me With Dvořák!”

Brahms’ “Hungarian Dances” originally inspired Dvorak’s “Slavonic Dances.”

Piano Quartet No. 1 in G minor | Brahms/Schoenberg

In the original Piano Quartet, the instrumentation consists of piano, violin, viola, and cello.

Schoenberg’s orchestration allows the audience to hear the string instruments versus the piano in a perfect balance.

Brahms’ unique style of alteration to music inspired Schoenberg’s radical thinking of the melodic and harmonic language.

We hope you were able to participate in ClefNotes with John Clare prior to the concert this evening!

The first Native American to lead an all-classical radio station, John Nasukaluk Clare is comfortable behind a microphone, streaming video or playing violin. He is currently the Classical Music Director at WGUC in Cincinnati, and is the weekday morning drive host on SiriusXM’s Symphony Hall. In 2005, he earned the Deems Taylor Award from ASCAP for radio broadcasting, citing his work on 20/20 Hearing. An avid chamber music lover, Clare founded the Las Vegas Chamber Music Society in 2004.

PROGRAM NOTES Antonín Dvořák: Scherzo Capriccioso, Op. 66 Shortly after graduating from the Prague Organ School, Antonin Dvořák earned a job as a violist in Prague’s Provisional Theater Orchestra, where he gained invaluable experience as a performer, and where he heard the latest operas and concert music. While performing under the baton of Richard Wagner was a watershed experience for the young composer, even more important was his work with Bedřich Smetana, the father of Czech nationalist music, who became the principal conductor of the Provisional Theater Orchestra in 1866.

Through Smetana’s operatic and orchestral works, Dvořák discovered the rich possibilities of incorporating elements of Czech folk music into his own musical language. His early music captured the attention of Johannes Brahms, and, more importantly, Brahms’ publisher Simrock. With the enormous critical and commercial success of Dvořák’s Slavonic Dances, the young composer established himself as a distinctively Czech musical voice, and his concert and operatic music soon became popular all over Europe.

Dvořák’s mother passed away in December of 1882, and the composer responded with one of his most heartfelt works, the Piano Trio in F minor, Op. 65. While grieving the end of one life, Dvořák’s spirits rose with the beginning of another: the birth of his son Antonín in March of 1883. Buoyed by the affirmation of new life and the success of his choral Stabat Mater in London, Dvořák began work on his Scherzo Capriccioso, a work that would expand upon the sound world of the Slavonic Dances in the same way an artist would expand a small pencil sketch into a full-size oil painting on canvas.

In Scherzo Capriccioso, Dvořák explores a more dramatic style than in the earlier Slavonic Dances, though the newer work bears the same melodic and harmonic stamps. Melodies and rhythms are now more angular, and there is a greater reliance on symphonic development (alteration and manipulation of previous musical material), contrapuntal textures, and orchestral virtuosity, resulting in a musical language of greater depth and sophistication. The textures are further enhanced by the warm sounds of the English horn and bass clarinet, two instruments Dvořák used sparingly in his other music.

The work is a large-scale A-B-A form, but with elements of a symphony movement where ideas are presented in slightly altered form with each subsequent appearance. The brash opening horn call ushers in bouncy, quirky rhythms in the same spirit as the Slavonic Dances. The boisterous opening leads to a lilting waltz tinged with a hint of melancholy, and it is these two ideas, one dramatic, one lyrical, that will form the basis of the entire work. A central chorale-like passage transforms into a second waltz, by turns lyrical and syncopated. The opening music returns, developing the original material in new and colorful ways. A brief cadenza for horn and harp precedes the final rush to the end, and the work ends in ebullient high spirits, with thrilling trumpet fanfares leading the way to the joyous final chords.

Johannes Brahms: Hungarian Dance No. 4 in F-sharp minor, WoO 1 Most of us probably imagine that the life of a touring musician is filled with fame and glamour – the best hotels, packed houses, and unending adulation from legions of devoted fans. While this may be the case for a tiny number of touring musicians, the reality is more prosaic, full of travel delays, poor venues, bad lighting, apathetic or belligerent roadies, and many other problems. The stress is made tolerable only by the chance to bring one’s art before a new audience and hopefully leave them feeling a little better after the concert than they did before they arrived.

Johannes Brahms experienced the life of an itinerant musician early in his career when he agreed to undertake an extended European tour with the violinist Ede Reményi. The two musicians first met in 1850 when Brahms was only 17, and Brahms remained the Hungarian violinist’s collaborator for several years thereafter. While their touring life was at times grueling (and Brahms encountered a sordid side of life that kept him a confirmed bachelor for the rest of his days), the young composer was exposed to a wide variety of new music, especially the Hungarian and Romani folk music which Reményi was fond of including in his recitals.

Later in life, with one symphony and numerous songs, piano works, and chamber music to his credit, Brahms returned to his love of these Hungarian melodies, writing two books of Hungarian Dances for piano, four hands. While Brahms originally intended them just for musical evenings with his good friend Clara Schumann, he eventually gave in to the wishes of his publisher Simrock and published them in two volumes, the first in 1869 and the second in 1880.

Brahms orchestrated several of the dances; other versions later appeared for orchestra, solo piano, and violin and piano.

While some of the melodies contained in the Hungarian Dances are of Brahms’ own invention, he freely admitted that he had employed many traditional folk tunes in the work. On the title page of the first edition, Brahms insisted that he be listed as an arranger rather than a composer, feeling that his versions were only embellishments on music that he had learned in his youth and had been playing his entire life. He once told a friend that the Hungarian Dances were “genuine gypsy children, which I did not beget, but merely brought up with bread and milk.” Brahms remained fond of these works through his entire life, choosing to record the first dance on a wax cylinder for the Edison Talking Machine Company in 1889.

The fourth dance opens with ardent violins singing passionately over a sighing woodwind accompaniment. Livelier dance music soon dispels the gloom, with a frenzied violin fiddling leading to playful woodwind figures. It is the smoldering opening that has the final say, concluding the lively dancing with a final impassioned flourish.

Antonín Dvořák: Slavonic Dance in G minor, Op. 46, No. 8 Long before Facebook, YouTube, Instagram and TikTok, a young musician, especially a budding composer, had to put forth extra effort to be noticed by critics and audiences. Antonín Dvořák was just such a musician, with the additional challenge of growing up in small villages rather than in a cultural mecca like Vienna, Paris or London. Yet his rigorous training and hard work through his youth earned him the post of Principal Viola in the orchestra of the National Theater in Prague, where he spent a decade learning the orchestra from the inside out, continuing to study and compose when his orchestral duties permitted. In 1871, he took a leap of faith and left his secure position with the National Theater to devote more time to composition.

Dvořák achieved his first taste of success in 1873 with a performance by the Prague Choral Society of his patriotic choral work The Heirs of the White Mountain, but even with this triumph his fame as a composer still barely extended beyond the outskirts of Prague. Having married at the end of 1873, he was desperately in need of both a steady income and a career boost.

When he learned of a competition for the annual Austrian State Music Prize, he jumped at the opportunity and took no chances concerning the outcome.

Most composers would have submitted a composition or two; Dvořák entered fifteen works. His strategy paid off handsomely, winning the 33-year-old composer the first prize of and praise from the judges for his “genuine and original gifts.” Dvořák’s win was no fluke; he entered and won the prize for the following three years.

His music impressed a judging panel consisting of Johann Herbeck, director of the Imperial Opera, the influential (and often acid-penned) music critic Eduard Hanslick, and, most importantly for Dvořák’s career, Vienna’s pre-eminent composer, Johannes Brahms. Brahms introduced Dvořák to his publisher, Fritz Simrock, who published most of Dvořák’s music for the rest of his life.

As a result of Brahms’ advocacy, Simrock was persuaded to publish Dvořák’s Moravian Duets, which achieved sufficient sales that the publisher requested a set of dances for piano duet. Dvořák responded with the first set of his Slavonic Dances, patterned after Brahms’ Hungarian Dances. Dvořák’s dances proved to be so popular that Simrock asked him to arrange them for orchestra. His initial set of eight dances first appeared in 1878 and were given their premiere in Dresden in their orchestral arrangement. Both the orchestral version and the piano duet version were published as Dvořák’s Op. 46. Owing to the continuing popularity of both settings, Dvořák produced a second set of Slavonic Dances in 1886, also in editions for piano duet and for orchestra and published as Op. 72.

Where Brahms borrowed popular Hungarian and Romani melodies for his Hungarian Dances, Dvořák created original tunes in the style of Czech folk music, absorbing the style features of this indigenous music into his own musical vocabulary. Each dance has its distinctive character, from slow and languorous to wild and frenetic, each modeled on dance forms like the mournful dumka and the passionate furiant.

The eighth dance from the Op. 46 collection leaps energetically from the outset, alternating between major and minor in consecutive phrases. Dvořák makes much of the dance’s sophisticated rhythmic interplay; what starts out sounding like a forthright statement in three slower beats suddenly shifts in the ninth bar to a rapid waltz-like idea, an effect known as hemiola. This opening idea permeates the entire dance, alternating between loud and soft, boisterous and playful. The exuberant energy only briefly subsides for a lyrical melody led by flutes and oboes. At the end, the music slows as though giving the dancers time to catch their breath, but suddenly bursts into one final frenzy of jubilant dancing.

Johannes Brahms/Arnold Schoenberg: Piano Quartet in G minor, Op. 25 The phrase “old wine in new bottles” seems particularly appropriate in the realm of classical music, where the art of transcribing older music for newer instruments and ensembles is commonplace. Leopold Stokowski brought the music of Johann Sebastian Bach to a whole generation of listeners through his transcriptions of that Baroque master’s organ music for the modern symphony orchestra. Ottorino Respighi’s three suites of Ancient Airs and Dances reclothed lute and keyboard pieces from the Renaissance in the colorful fabric of a chamber orchestra, proving that such a transcription didn’t have use the kitchen sink in order to be musically effective. The British composer Gordon Jacob even titled his wind band reimagining of British folk tunes “Old Wine in New Bottles.” This repurposing of older music was part of the 20th-century trend towards neoclassicism, viewing music of the past through the lens of the present.

For most listeners, the name Arnold Schoenberg conjures up an image of uncompromisingly dissonant music, and perhaps the image of elderly patrons fleeing from concert halls while covering their ears. Yet Schoenberg’s music, radical as it was, grew out of the Classical and Romantic traditions. His earliest works bear the earmarks of Brahms, Wagner, and Mahler, and he was a keen student of the music of the Renaissance and Baroque.

In his 1933 essay “Brahms the Progressive,” Schoenberg argued that Brahms should not only be revered as part of the musical past, but as a harbinger of the music of the future, including Schoenberg’s own innovative compositions.

Schoenberg specifically mentioned his admiration for Brahms’ use of “progressive variation,” altering musical material after its initial presentation instead of reserving and restricting those alterations to a particular section of a piece (the development section of textbook sonata/symphonic form). This technique would become a cornerstone of serialism, Schoenberg’s radical rethinking of melodic and harmonic language, a rethinking that would influence concert music for the remainder of the twentieth century.

Schoenberg greatly admired Brahms’ G minor piano quartet, and in 1937 he orchestrated the work at the request of the conductor Otto Klemperer, who gave the first performance of the new version with the Los Angeles Philharmonic that same year. In writing to Alfred Frankenstein, the music critic of the San Francisco Chronicle, Schoenberg explained his rationale behind the orchestration:

1. I like the piece 2. It is seldom played 3. It is always very badly played, because the better the pianist, the louder he plays, and you hear nothing from the strings. I wanted once to hear everything, and this I achieved.

In his orchestration of Brahms’ quartet, Schoenberg manages to achieve a balance between a deep respect for the original work and the innovation of presenting that work from a new perspective. In the opening two movements, a casual listener unfamiliar with the original quartet might well mistake Schoenberg’s version as part of a long-lost Brahms symphony. While more reactionary critics view the inclusion of the unusual sounds (for Brahms) of xylophone and glockenspiel, several orchestral versions of Brahms Hungarian Dances include similar exotic touches. If Schoenberg did not adhere to the letter of Brahms’ style, he certainly honors the spirit of the work, especially in the Romani-inspired finale.

The opening four bars of the first movement, heard in clarinets and answered by strings, serve as the basis for almost the entire movement. A hymn-like melody, presented after a highly agitated transition, sings nobly in the woodwinds over a bustling string accompaniment. While the central development is full of its share of contrapuntal storm and strife, the return of the opening offers no lasting relief from the accumulated tension until the final bars fade to an uneasy silence.

The second movement follows a familiar thread found in Brahms symphonies.

Though formally a Classical scherzo with a trio, the movement functions more as an interlude after the storms of the first movement, even though the outer sections are pervaded by a quiet restlessness. The central Animato transforms the initial nervous energy into a lighthearted dance, with strings sighing over burbling woodwinds. The cheerful spirit reaches a lively pinnacle and suddenly collapses, returning to the somber opening section. The more optimistic music returns at the coda, and the movement evaporates in a final gentle flourish.

The warm lyricism of the third movement harkens back to a similar movement in Brahms’ first Serenade of 1858. The real surprise here is the epic processional that appears in the middle of the movement, starting softly in the woodwinds and growing to an epic climax. Schoenberg presents this majestic parade in orchestral splendor reminiscent of Elgar’s “Pomp and Circumstance” marches, surrounding the central theme with rousing trumpet calls, woodwind trills, and

exuberant percussion. At the height of the celebration, the music gradually softens, making a gradual transition into the opening bars, and concluding the movement in the same serene atmosphere in which it began.

The final rondo (marked alla Zingarese, “in the gypsy style”) is a brawnier cousin to Brahms’ Hungarian Dances. It springs to life as an exuberant fiddle tune, but varied and developed in the manner of a symphonic movement. The movement is a kaleidoscope of different textures and colors, bursting with exuberance that pauses only for a pompous strutting dance and a lyric theme full of reflective melancholy, but each time returning to the madcap energy of the rondo theme. A brief contrapuntal interlude for solo woodwinds and solo strings ushers in the coda, where the frenzied dance whirls faster and faster, racing headlong to the triumphant final bars.
