WOLFGANG AMADÉ MOZART
Symphony No. 40 in G minor, K. 550 (1788)
At no time was the separation between Mozart’s personal life and his transcendent music more apparent than in the summer of 1788, when, at the age of 32, he had only three years to live. His wife was ill and his own health was beginning to fail; his six-month-old daughter died on July 29th; Don Giovanni was given a disappointing reception at its Viennese premiere on May 7th; he had small prospect of participating in any important concerts; and he was so impoverished and indebted that he would not answer a knock on the door for fear of finding a creditor there. Yet, amid all these difficulties, he produced, in less than two months, the three crowning jewels of his orchestral output, the Symphonies Nos. 39, 40 and 41. The G minor alone of the last three symphonies may reflect the composer’s distressed emotional state at the time. It is among those great works of Mozart that look forward to the passionately charged music of the 19th century while epitomizing the structural elegance of the waning Classical era.
The Symphony’s pervading mood of tragic restlessness is established immediately at the outset by a simple, arpeggiated figure in the violas above which the violins play the agitated main theme. This melody is repeated with added woodwind chords to lead through a stormy transition to the second theme. After a moment of silence, a contrasting, lyrical melody is shared by strings and winds. The respite from the movement’s driving energy provided by the dulcet second theme is brief, however, and tension soon mounts again. The wondrous development section gives prominence to the fragmented main theme. The recapitulation returns the earlier themes in heightened settings. The Andante, in sonata form, uses rich chromatic harmonies and melodic half-steps to create a mood of brooding intensity and portentous asceticism. Because of its somber minor-key harmonies, powerful irregular phrasing and dense texture, the Minuet was judged by Arturo Toscanini to be one of the most darkly tragic pieces ever written. The character of the Minuet is emphasized by its contrast with the central trio, the only untroubled portion of the entire work. The finale opens with a rocket theme that revives the insistent rhythmic energy of the first movement. The gentler second theme, with a full share of piquant chromatic inflections, slows the hurtling motion only briefly. The development section exhibits a contrapuntal ingenuity that few late-18th-century composers could match in technique and none surpass in musicianship. The recapitulation maintains the Symphony’s tragic mood to the close.

PROGRAM NOTES BY DR. RICHARD E. RODDA
ANTONÍN DVOŘÁK
Concerto in A minor for Violin and Orchestra, Opus 53 (1879; revised 1880 and 1882)
Dvořák composed his Violin Concerto during the first flowering of his representative Czech style. His biographer Otakar Šourek wrote, “The national character of Dvořák’s music became strongly marked when he began to make his appeal outside his own country, and felt impelled to emphasize his national origins and characteristics. This was about the beginning of 1878.” In this Concerto, Dvořák was influenced by several facets of the Czech personality — the blending of sadness and determination in the first movement, the tenderness of the second, and the boisterous peasant joy of the finale. The main theme group of the Concerto’s first movement comprises a bold, almost tragic, opening statement, a lamenting phrase with a prominent triplet rhythm presented by the soloist and (after a repetition of the first two motives) a lyrical woodwind strain above a simple string accompaniment. These three motives are treated at some length before the smoothly flowing second theme is introduced as a duet for oboe and solo violin. The development section is a challenging exercise in broken chords for the soloist. The recapitulation is greatly truncated, and brings back only the lamenting theme from the exposition. A delicate woodwind chorale leads without pause to the second movement, a song of sweet nostalgia sung by the soloist. The bucolic mood is twice interrupted by stern proclamations from the orchestra. The finale is a scintillating rondo whose main theme is reminiscent of the fiery Czech dance, the furiant.

PROGRAM NOTES BY DR. RICHARD E. RODDA
BEDŘICH SMETANA
“Šárka” from Má Vlast (“My Country”) (1875)
It is one of the great ironies in 19th century music that Smetana conceived the first melody for Má Vlast (“My Country”), the splendid cycle of six tone poems inspired by the land and lore of his native Bohemia, at the same time he lost his hearing. Had he not been able to look to the example of the deaf Beethoven, he might well have abandoned this work, but he pressed on and completed Vyšehrad by November 1874 and immediately began The Moldau, which was finished in less than three weeks, on December 8th. Šárka dates from 1875; From Bohemia’s Woods and Meadows was composed between June 3rd and October 18th of the same year; Tábor was finished in 1878 and Blaník in 1879. The first complete performance of Má Vlast, on November 2, 1882 in Prague (the cycle is dedicated to the city of Prague), was the occasion for a patriotic rally, and, like Sibelius’ great national hymn Finlandia, this music has since become an emblem of its country’s national pride. Má Vlast is the traditional music played every year on May 12th, the anniversary of Smetana’s death, to open the Prague Spring Festival.
Of the third movement of Má Vlast, the composer noted, “This poem depicts the story of Šárka. It begins with the enraged Šárka [one of the girls at the court of the Přemysl, the founding family of Bohemia, who rebelled at being ruled by men after the death of Queen Libuše] swearing vengeance on the whole male race for the infidelity of her lover. From afar is heard the arrival of armed men led by Ctirad, who has come to punish Šárka and her rebellious maidens. In the distance, Ctirad hears the feigned cries of a girl (Šárka) bound to a tree. On seeing her, he is overcome by her beauty and so inflamed with love that he frees her. By means of a previously prepared potion, she intoxicates Ctirad and his men, who fall asleep. As she sounds her horn (a pre-arranged signal), the rebel maidens, hidden in nearby rocks, rush to commit the bloody deed. The horror of general slaughter and the passion and fury of Šárka’s fulfilled revenge form the end of the composition.”
Šárka, the most graphically detailed movement of Má Vlast, is divided into five continuous, almost cinematic, sequences. The first section (marked “with fire” in the score) portrays the fury of the avowed manhater. Next comes a swaggering march to accompany the entry of Ctirad and his knights. A solo clarinet intones the duplicitous cry of Šárka, to which Ctirad (solo cello) gives an impassioned response as he loosens her bonds. An episode of warmly lyrical music suggests Ctirad’s wooing of the cunning maid before a soft, trilled string chord introduces the scherzo-like fourth section, which depicts the drunken revels of the warriors. Šárka’s philter has its effect, and the festive music dies away as the men fall asleep (the low C’s on the bassoon suggest their snoring). Šárka sounds her horn and exhorts her followers (another clarinet solo) to undertake the slaughter that fills the last chapter of this dramatic tone poem.

PROGRAM NOTES BY DR. RICHARD E. RODDA
LEOŠ JANÁČEK
Taras Bulba, Rhapsody for Orchestra (1915-1918)
By 1914, the Habsburg dynasty had ruled central Europe for over six centuries. Rudolf I of Switzerland, the first of the Habsburgs, confiscated Austria and much surrounding territory in 1276, made them hereditary family possessions in 1282, and, largely through shrewd marriages with far-flung royal families, the Habsburgs thereafter gained control over a vast empire that at one time stretched from the Low Countries to the Philippines and from Spain to Hungary. By the mid-19th century, following the geo-political upheavals of the Napoleonic Wars, the Habsburg dominions had shrunk to the present territories of Austria, Hungary, Czech Republic and Slovakia, a considerable reduction from earlier times but still a huge expanse of land encompassing a great diversity of national characteristics. The eastern countries continued to be dissatisfied with their domination by the Viennese monarchy, however, and the central fact of the history of Hungary and the Czech lands during the 19th century was their striving toward independence from the Habsburgs. The Dual Monarchy of 1867 allowed the eastern lands a degree of autonomy, but ultimate political and fiscal authority still rested with Emperor Franz Joseph and his court in Vienna. It was not until 1918, following the ravages of World War I, that the centuries-long Habsburg rule over central Europe finally came to an end.
Leoš Janáček was among those many Czechs at the turn of the twentieth century who longed for freedom for their native land from the Habsburgs. The son of a village schoolmaster, Janáček became a chorister in Brno at age eleven before going to Prague, Vienna and Leipzig for advanced musical training. He did much to further the musical life of his country, founding the Brno Philharmonic Society in 1881 and later serving as professor at the Prague Conservatory. In addition, Janáček not only gave much time to collecting folk music, which he considered an indispensable component of his country’s national character, but he also developed a specifically Czech vocal style based on the sounds, rhythms and inflections of the local spoken dialects, comparable to that achieved by Mussorgsky in Russia. (The opera Jenůfa — his first international success, at age 50, in 1904 — solidified his unique style, and was followed by a remarkable series of stage works that contain some of the most powerful music drama ever conceived: Katya Kabanova, The Cunning Little Vixen, The Makropoulos Affair and From the House of the Dead.) Just as he wanted a music free from Germanic domination, so Janáček wanted his country politically free from the Habsburgs. He believed that this end could best be accomplished by an alliance of all the Slavic peoples led by Russia since, as he wrote in a letter to his friend Richard Vesely, “In the whole world there are to be found neither fires nor tortures strong enough to destroy the vitality of the Russian nation.” Soon after war broke out in 1914, Janáček, then sixty years old, expressed his sympathy for
the Russians who were fighting the Germans and their Austrian allies by creating a threemovement symphonic poem. He based his work on episodes from Nikolai Gogol’s 1839 novel about the heroic Taras Bulba, who led the Zaporozhye Cossacks, the warlike people of the lower Don River valley who were frequently utilized by Russian rulers in the late Middle Ages for their prowess as fighters, in a victorious battle against the Poles in 1628. Janáček began the piece in 1915, but, as was usual for him, work went slowly and the score was not completed until Good Friday, March 29, 1918. It was to be another three years before it was performed; František Neumann conducted the Brno National Theater Orchestra in the premiere of Taras Bulba on October 9, 1921.
The three movements of Taras Bulba, which depict Taras killing his own son for betraying his people (The Death of Andri), the martyrdom of his second son (The Death of Ostap), and his own execution and vision of ultimate victory and the coming of a great Czar to rule all the Russians (The Prophecy and Death of Taras Bulba), are dramatic in form, and follow closely the narrative of Gogol’s story.
DENIS MATSUEV
Denis Matsuev has become a fast-rising star on the international concert stage since his triumphant victory at the 11th International Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow in 1998, and he is quickly establishing himself as one of the most sought-after pianists of his generation.
Laureate of the prestigious Shostakovich Prize in Music and State Prize of Russian Federation in Literature and Arts, Matsuev has appeared in hundreds of recitals at the most prestigious concert halls throughout the world.
Matsuev is collaborating with the world’s best known orchestras, such as the New York Philharmonic, Chicago Symphony, Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, London Symphony, London Philharmonic, Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra, Bavarian Radio Symphony, National Symphony, Pittsburgh Symphony, WDR of Cologne, Frankfurt Radio and BBC Symphony, Philharmonia orchestra of London, Verbier and Budapest Festival Orchestra, Filarmonica della Scala and Zurich Opera House Orchestra, Maggio Musicale Fiorentino and Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia, Orchestre National de France, Orchestre de Paris, Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France, Orchestre National du Capitole de Toulouse, NHK Symphony, Rotterdam and Netherlands Radio Philharmonic, Israel and Helsinki Philharmonic and the European Chamber Orchestra; he is continually reengaged with the legendary Russian orchestras such as the St. Petersburg Philharmonic, the Mariinsky Orchestra and the Russian National Orchestra.
Matsuev appears regularly with the most prominent conductors on the stage today, including Lorin Maazel, Valery Gergiev, Zubin Mehta, Mariss Jansons, Yuri Temirkanov, Kurt Masur, Paavo Jarvi, Leonard Slatkin, MyungWhun Chung, Antonio Pappano, Semyon Bychkov, Ivan Fischer and Adam Fisher, Gianandrea Noseda, Jukka-Pekka Saraste, James Conlon, Vladimir Spivakov, Mikhail Pletnev, Vladimir Fedoseyev and others.
Matsuev is a frequent guest of world famous musical festivals such as Ravinia Festival and Hollywood Bowl in the United States, BBC Proms and Edinburgh International Festival in Great Britain, Schleswig-Holstein,
Rheingau, Festspielhaus Baden-Baden in Germany, Chopin Festival in Poland, Maggio Musicale Fiorentino and Mito Festival in Italy, Les Choregies d’Orange and Festival de la Rogue d’Antheron in France, Verbier and Montreux Festivals in Switzerland, Enescu Festival in Romania, Budapest Spring Festival in Hungary, Athens and Epidaurus Festival in Greece and Stars of the White Nights Festival in Russia.

Return to world famous musical festivals such as: Ravinia Festival and Hollywood Bowl in the United States; Schleswig-Holstein; Festspielhaus BadenBaden; Rheingau in Germany; and Verbier Festival in Switzerland.
In 2007, Sony BMG released a disc featuring Matsuev entitled Unknown Rachmaninoff, which has received strong positive reviews praising his execution and creativity.
Matsuev’s recital at Carnegie Hall in November 2007 was recorded and released in 2009 as an album entitled Denis Matsuev – Concert at Carnegie Hall. The New York Times praised his performance, writing, “…his
poetic instincts held fast in tender moments, with trills as thrillingly precise as one might ever hope to hear.”
In 2009, the new Mariinsky Label released Rachmaninoff Concerto No. 3, which Denis Matsuev recorded with Valery Gergiev and the Mariinsky Orchestra in the Mariinsky Concert Hall in St. Petersburg, Russia. ClassicsToday. com (US) wrote, “Denis Matsuev is an amazing pianist. He shapes the Third Concerto’s fistfuls of notes with consummate mastery…”
In 2011, the anniversary year of Franz List RCA Red Seal released Matsuev List, an album recorded together with the Russian National Orchestra and Mikhail Pletnev. The Independent rated this album as “Album of the week” and concluded: “This impressive double-CD of Liszt’s concertos, plus his Orpheus and Heroide, is an all-Russian effort. Matsuev’s pianism has heroic force and finely calibrated control…”
In early 2012, Matsuev, Valery Gergiev and Mariinsky Label featured their new project of Shostakovich Concertos No. 1, No. 2 and Shchedrin Fifth Concerto which granted the Five Star rating of BBC Music Magazine: “Denis Matsuev may be betterknown internationally as a Rachmaninoff expert, but these new accounts of the two Shaostakovich Concertos must be among the best currently available.” Norman Lebrecht continued: “Neither is a virtuoso vehicle and, the composer apart, there is no pianist who has stamped these works decisively as his or her own. Denis Matsuev, a Siberian who
made his name in Rachmaninov is perhaps the first to come close.”
Over the past five years, Matsuev has collaborated with the Sergei Rachmaninoff Foundation and its president Alexander Rachmaninoff, the grandson of the composer. Matsuev was chosen by the Foundation to perform and record unknown pieces of Rachmaninoff on the composer’s own piano at the Rachmaninoff house “Villa Senar” in Lucerne. This unique program has been in high demand around the world. In 2013, the anniversary year of great composer, the Serge Rachmaninoff Foundation will percent series of concerts in some of the most prestigious concert halls throughout Russia and Europe.
Matsuev is Artistic Director of three important international festivals: Annecy Music Festival in Annecy, France; “Stars on Baikal” in Irkutsk, Siberia; and “Crescendo,” a series of events held in many different international cities, such as Moscow, St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg, Tel Aviv, Kaliningrad, Paris and New York City. These remarkable festivals present a new generation of young musicians by featuring gifted soloists from around the world performing with the best Russian orchestras. The “Crescendo” festival has had incredible resonance in Russia and abroad. Additionally, Matsuev is the president of the charitable Russian foundation “New Names” that supports children music education in regions of his native Russia.
Denis Matsuev last performed with the PSO in February 2011.

LEGACY OF EXCELLENCE
In addition to income from the Annual Fund, the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra is dependent on a robust Endowment to assure its financial stability. Gifts from Legacy of Excellence programs are directed to the endowment to provide for the PSO’s future. The Steinberg Society honors donors who have advised the PSO in writing that they have made a provision for the orchestra through their estate plans. Members of the Sid Kaplan Tribute program have made a planned gift to the endowment of $10,000 or more to commemorate a particular person or event. Endowed naming opportunities for guest artists, musicians’ chairs, concert series, educational programs or designated spaces allow donors to specify a name or tribute for ten years, twenty years or in perpetuity. For additional information, please call Jan Fleisher at 412.392.3320.
