MUSICIANS OF SORROW AND
ROMANCE.
(Continued from last issue.)
I 'ETER TSCH AIKO W SIC Y —R U SSI A.
The enormous size of Russia and
the many points of difference be
tween the various parts of the
country, gives an endless variety
of Russian music. The most origi
nal and interesting songs have
come from what is known as "Lit
tle Russia," the district bordering
on Poland.
In Russian churches no instru
ments are allowed, so that we find
the deepest bass voices in the
world in Russia today.
With the constant oppression of
tyrant rulers and the invasion of
enemies, it is but natural that the
best songs of Russia are sad and
favor the minor mode.
I'vter Tsellaikowsky (1840-1893)
was the greatest of the composers
of Russia in the so-called Modern
School (which school is the out
growth of the Romantic Period as
the Romantic Period was the out
growth of the Classical).
Of a morbid temperament,
Tschaikowsky reflects in his coin
positions the deep brooding sad
ness of the Russian heart. His life
forms an interesting story; one of
its singular episodes was the be
stowal upon him of an annual in
come by an admirer, a woman, on
condition that lie should never try
to see her; this made him inde
pendent of drudgery. He travelled
and gained inspiration for some of
his works in Italy; but they are
mostly intensely Russian in feel
ing and embody much of Russia's
wild,,sad, tender spirit.
His greatest works are written
for the orchestra and are brilliant
and daring; his piano works are
graceful and melodious; his songs,
though few in number, are of ar
tistic value and it is in these that
he shows much of the innate sad
ness of his nature.
EDWARD GRIEG — NORWAY.
The deep forests, sunny mead
ows, high mountains and rugged
sea-coast of Norway inspires a
love which makes the tales and
music of this land most fascina
ting. The Norse songs are divided
into two classes; one hold and vig
orous, the other tender and plain
tive.
Edworcl (iricg (1843-1007) is to
day regarded as tiie most impor
tan master of the Norwegian
school. He was especially success
ful in small piano compositions
and in his songs. He is one of the
most popular and deeply beloved
of all modern composers, and his
work deserves a place beside Chop
in's and Tseha ikowsky's, as being
thoroughly representative of the
spirit of a nation and its song.
EDWARD MACDOWELL — AMERICAN.
Much has been written of the
characteristic music of America
in the past few years, and many
musicians believe that the future
of our American School rests on
THE GUILFORDIAN
llio ase of Indian melodies only,
while many others argue that the
songs of the American negroes are
our national music.
America has been settled by all
nations, and the musical knowl
edge of the American musicians
has been "imported," as it were,
from Germany, France and Italy.
While Europeans schools of music
were giving us their greatest
works we were struggling to gain
our freedom and establish our
form of government.
Edward MacDowcll (18(11-15)08)
was i devoted student of American
music and in several of his larger
works incorporated Indian themes.
MacDowell and Schumann may
be profitably compared; both men
lived the same number of years—
about 10; entered the musical
world as pianisns, taught in con
servatories, wrote critical essays,
and both men suffered the tragedy
of becoming insane several years
before their death. But the strik
ing similarity lies not so much in
their lives as in their tempera
ments and their music.
Macl>owell said of Schumann,
"llis music is the reverie of a great
poet to whom nothing seems
strange and who has the faculty of
relating his visions." The same
words have been ased concerning
Mac Dowel mystic, a dreamer,
a poet—yet there is as much dif
ference in their expression of the
same moods as between German
and Scottish brogue.
