S ING A P OR E N AT ION A L YOU T H OR C HE S T R A The Singapore National Youth Orchestra (SNYO) occupies a special place in Singapore’s music community, having produced a strong alumni contributing significantly to both seeding the Singapore Symphony Orchestra and other community orchestras in Singapore as well as teaching the next generation of budding musicians, thereby boosting Singapore’s music and cultural scene.

As a leading orchestra dedicated to the training and development of young orchestral musicians in Singapore, the SNYO is recognised by the Ministry of Education as a National Project of Excellence. Entry into the SNYO is by a rigorous audition process.

In April 2015, the SNYO started a new chapter in its musical journey with the transfer of its management and operations from the Ministry of Education to the Singapore Symphony Orchestra. The impetus behind this change is to provide high quality leadership and artistic development for local musical talent to excel at the national level by drawing on the knowledge and expertise of Singapore’s premier professional orchestra.

Currently led by Principal Conductor Dr Leonard Tan, the SNYO is made up of over 180 talented young musicians representing more than 60 schools across Singapore.

The Orchestra boasts a unique music talent development programme where selected members receive individual instrumental tutoring from professional musicians such as those from the Singapore Symphony Orchestra.

VISION To inspire a lifelong love for music and a dedication to exceptional orchestral performance.

MISSION Through the playing of orchestral classical music, we nurture future generations of musicians and build a vibrant music community for Singapore.

T R AG IC OV E R T UR E , OP. 81

Johannes Brahms Born 7 May 1833 (Hamburg, Germany) Died 3 April 1897 (Vienna, Austria)

Instrumentation Piccolo, 3 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 bassoons, 4 horns, 2 trumpets, 3 trombones, tuba, timpani, and strings

About the composer - Characterised as one of the “Three Bs” of great composers which included Ludwig van Beethoven and Johann Sebastian Bach.

- Wrote four symphonies that were recognised as masterpieces of the canon.

- Fell in love with Clara Schumann but their love for each other did not lead to marriage.

Significance of the work - One of the most tragic musical expressions from the 19th century.

- Written as an antithesis to his Academic Festival Overture which was lively and energetic. Brahms also described to his friend Carl Reinecke that “one of them weeps, the other one laughs” when comparing the two works.

- Ironically, Brahms did not suffer any tragedy or misfortunes when he composed the piece. Also, it was titled “Dramatic Overture” for a period of time before being called “Tragic Overture”. Although Brahms was not particularly fond of the name, his friends failed to provide an alternative, and thus the name “Tragic Overture” remained.

C E L LO C ONC E R TO NO. 1 IN C M A J OR HOB V IIB: 1 Franz Joseph Haydn Born 31 March 1732 (Rohrau, Austria) Died 31 May 1809 (Vienna, Austria)

Instrumentation 2 oboes, 2 horns, and strings

About the composer - Prolific and prominent Austrian composer of the Classical period.

- Earned the epithets of “Father of the Symphony” for his work developing the symphony as a musical form over the span of 104 symphonies; and “Father of the String Quartet” for similar reasons.

- Mentor of Mozart and teacher of Beethoven.

- Widely celebrated composer in Europe during his lifetime and one of the three composers characterised as “The First Viennese School”, which included Mozart and Beethoven.

Significance of the work - Composed between 1761-1765 for his longtime friend, Joseph Franz Weigl, who was principal cellist in the orchestra of Prince Nikolaus Esterházy’s court.

PA S TOR A L E D’É T É (S UMME R PA S TOR A L E ) Arthur Honegger Born 10 March 1892 (Le Havre, France) Died 27 November 1955 (Paris, France)

Instrumentation Flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, horn, and strings

About the composer - Born in France to Swiss parents and studied at both the Zurich and Paris Conservatoire.

- One of the composers in the prominent group of French composers named “Les Six”.

- Had deep veneration for and considered J.S. Bach as his “great model”.

Significance of the work - Influenced by the Alpine surroundings during his trip to the Swiss Alps.

- Won the Prix Verley, a prize decided by the audience members present at the concert.

F R A NC E S C A DA R IMINI, OP. 32 Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky Born 7 May 1840 (Votkinsk, Russia) Died 6 November 1893 (St. Petersburg, Russia)

Instrumentation Piccolo, 3 flutes, 2 oboes, English horn, 2 clarinets, 2 bassoons, 4 horns, 2 cornets, 2 trumpets, 3 trombones, tuba, timpani, percussion (bass drum, cymbals, tam-tam), harp, and strings

About the composer - One of the best-known composers, noted for writing luscious melodies and grand works such as the 1812 Overture.

- Spent time travelling outside of Russia from end-1875 until 1877, a period where he seemed to be in low spirits. This period included Francesca da Rimini (1876) as one of his great works.

- Wrote many of his famous works between 1878 and his death in 1893, including his famous ballet, The Nutcracker (1892).

Significance of the work - A fantasy for orchestra, often described as a symphonic poem, written in 1876, and premiered in Moscow in 1877.

- One of Tchaikovsky’s compositions based on a story about doomed lovers.

- Based on a specific tale told in Canto V of Dante’s Inferno, a seminal 14th century work describing “The Poet” Dante’s allegorical journey through Hell. In the Second Circle of Hell, Dante sees people who have committed the sin of lust being tossed about in a whirlwind.

- One of them is Francesca (from the town of Rimini), who tells of how she was tricked into marrying Giovanni Malatesta, but then fell in love with his handsome brother Paolo. One day the couple was reading the story of Lancelot and Guinevere and in the throes of love when they were caught by Giovanni, who kills them in anger.

- Known for its vivid depiction of Dante’s scenes, and one of Tchaikovsky’s most beautiful melodies, the clarinet solo represents Francesca’s telling of her story.

Programme note by Chng Hak-Peng

B R A HM S: T R AG IC OV E R T UR E , OP. 81 EXPOSITION

The development section begins similarly to the exposition but without the march-like rhythm.

After two forceful chords, the solo timpani roll leads to a theme with two distinct characters: a rising arpeggio melody answered by a descending line and a contrasting march-like dotted rhythm.

After strong declamatory restatements of the opening motifs, the texture changes with the oboe tossing snippets of the opening thematic material and the strings accompanying with tremolos.

DEVE

The violins play the melody over busy accompaniment in the lower strings. Before long, the music turns turbulent again with the brasses pitted against the strings.

The plaintive oboe plays a rising three-note phrase to a syncopated rhythm in the strings.

The music evolves into a slow quiet march with a dotted rhythm relentlessly driving it forward.

ELOPMENT

RECAPITULATION

The recapitulation is marked by the return of the quiet timpani roll with the rising arpeggio fragments from the opening theme being heard in the lower strings.

CODA

A brief respite occurs before the music builds up to the two forceful chords that opens the overture.

A brass chorale transitions to the lyrical melody previously played by the violins, this time appearing in the violas. This is followed by the turbulent section of the music with the full orchestra in outbursts of energetic playing.

With the woodwinds playing in hushed tones, the quiet does not last and is interrupted with the insistent entries in the strings leading to an exciting close.

The strings and brass are pitted against each other and an emphatic statement of the opening theme is augmented via doubling of the note values.

H AY DN: C E L L O C ONC E R TO NO. 1 IN C M A J OR , HOB . V IIB: I All three movements of this concerto are written in Ritornello form. Ritornello means ‘little return’ in Italian. This musical structure, often used in Baroque concertos, alternates full orchestra sections with contrasting passages featuring the soloist. You can listen out for the important cadences, sometimes marked by a long trill, signalling the end of the each “return”.

R = Ritornello

S = Solo

1st movement: Moderato R1: The orchestra introduces a spirited main theme.

S1: The cello makes its opening gesture with a full C major chord.

The fast scales showcase the agility of the soloist.

R2: The main theme is now presented in the dominant key of G major.

S2: The large leaps in the passages shows off the virtuosity of the cello. Listen out for a change from major to a ‘darker’ minor mode.

R3: The orchestra ‘return’ shifts the mode back to the major key.

S3: After stating the main theme with much embellishment, the cello plays a cadenza, an unaccompanied improvisatory passage, reprising musical ideas in this movement.

R4: The main theme is presented again.

2nd movement: Adagio R1: A tender lyrical melody is played by the violins.

S1: Unlike the first movement, the entry of the cello begins as an accompaniment with a long sustained pedal note. The end of this section finds the cello playing in the high registers.

R2: The orchestra makes a short statement before the next solo cello entry.

S2: The calm of the music is interrupted with the shift to the minor mode together with dynamic contrasts.

3rd movement: Allegro molto R1: The orchestral introduction begins in a vivacious lighthearted character. The musical wit and humour, typical of Haydn, comes in the form of the use of (mostly large) interval leaps and fast repeated scale passages. In the middle section, the music shifts to the minor mode.

S1: The cello joins in the fun, seemingly extemporising on the material, with large leaps over an octave and double stops (playing of two notes at a time).

R2: This short ‘return’ echoes the dominant key of G major established by the cello in the previous section.

S2: The cello’s virtuosity and agility is on full display even as the tonal centre of the music shifts into the minor key.

R3: This return has both the orchestra and cello playing together.

R4: The orchestra comes in to bring the movement to a close.

S3: The cello makes its final entry playing the opening melody which leads to the cadenza.

R3: Starts in minor key and modulates back to the tonic key of C major.

S3: In this final entry of the cello, the solo starts with a long sustained note over the expected theme and reprises most of the material in this movement. In the minor mode passage, the cello plays in an even higher register, adding much drama to the music.

R4: The final orchestral section is marked by a prominent horn entry. However, the cello refuses to take a backseat and snatches control of the proceedings to lead the movement to a rousing end.

HONEG G E R : PA S TOR A L E D’É T É

The strings open with soft murmurings before the horn plays a simple soaring melody.

The mood changes in this transitional passage when the murmuring strings shifts into another pattern to accompany cascading notes in the flute and clarinet.

The imitative birdcalls gets repeated.

The flute and clarinet add to the atmosphere of the pastoral awakening with their flutterings representing birdcalls.

The oboe takes over from the horn with a descending melody line.

The oboe takes over from the horn to play in canon with the violins.

The violins take up the soaring melody with the horn following in canon.

The middle section is a jovial dance with each of the woodwind instruments taking turns with a solo.

The opening soaring melody and murmuring strings returns with sprinkles of birdcalls and the dance theme.

The texture thickens with full participation of the entire orchestra in the dance theme.

The music quietens down with the soaring melody and dance theme played in the woodwinds to sustained notes in the strings.

Walking into hell

The whirlwind

The music here, with its ambiguous harmonic progression, describes the Poet’s ominous further descent into the Second Circle of Hell.

The running scales depict the whirlwind vividly. The whirlwind is hurling those who have committed the sin of lust.
