Correspondence: June 23, 2010, Roland Jackson Jan 2012

Correspondence: June 23, 2010, Roland Jackson

Performance Practice Review

The recent article by Dorottya Fabian and Eitan Ornoy, “Identity in Violin Playing on Records: Interpretation Profiles in Recordings of Solo Bach” (PPR 2009)—which considers mainly the twentieth-century violinists Heifetz and Milstein (with reference as well to Szigeti, Menuhin, and others)—is unusual in that it generally avoids any discussion of Bach’s original performance practice. As the authors state at the outset, “when studying the performances, we are not concerned primarily with how they may relate to historically-informed performance and Bach’s intentions or presumed intentions.” In this they depart from all the studies that have appeared thus far in PPR from …

Some Misconceptions About The Baroque Violin, Stewart Pollens Jan 2012

Some Misconceptions About The Baroque Violin, Stewart Pollens

Performance Practice Review

Much has been written about the baroque violin, yet many misconceptions remain most notably that up to around 1750 their necks were universally shorter and not angled back as they are today, that the string angle over the bridge was considerably flatter, and that strings were narrower gauge and under lower tension...

Realizing The Continuo In Monteverdi's Lamento Della Ninfa And Its Implications For Early-Seventeenth-Century Italian Continuo Practice, Roland Jackson Jan 2012

Realizing The Continuo In Monteverdi's Lamento Della Ninfa And Its Implications For Early-Seventeenth-Century Italian Continuo Practice, Roland Jackson

Performance Practice Review

Monteverdi’s “Amor, dicea” (Lamento della ninfa), appearing in his Eighth Book of Madrigals published in 1638, is regarded as among his most emotionally moving works, Denis Arnold (for one) calling it “unforgettable” and “almost unbearably intense.” Nonetheless, our full sense of it and of its expressive potential, remains uncertain in that its accompaniment has come down to us in incomplete form, consisting of but a single bass line on a descending fourth, A – G – F – E, repeated throughout. How this line is to be interpreted has not been agreed upon among scholars or performers, despite its critical …


Identity In Violin Playing On Records: Interpretation Profiles In Recordings Of Solo Bach By Early Twentiety-Century Violinists, Dorottya Fabian, Eitan Ornoy Jan 2012

Identity In Violin Playing On Records: Interpretation Profiles In Recordings Of Solo Bach By Early Twentiety-Century Violinists, Dorottya Fabian, Eitan Ornoy

Performance Practice Review

Performance studies relying on sound recordings as evidence have often focused on establishing trends and traditions in various periods and repertoire. So far little attention has been paid to individual artistic profiles and idiosyncratic expression. Yet if performance is as significant as the notated work, as has often been argued, musicologists must be able to show what identifies a particularly famous interpreter just as they can state what characterizes the works of a prominent composer. This paper investigates the individual differences between two famous violinists. The solo Bach recordings of Nathan Milstein and Jascha Heifetz - two of Leopold Auer's …


The Violin Concerto Soloist’S Orchestral Role, From Mozart To Beethoven, Carey Campbell Jan 2012

The Violin Concerto Soloist’S Orchestral Role, From Mozart To Beethoven, Carey Campbell

Performance Practice Review

The relationship between soloist and orchestra is central to the way many listeners, scholars, and performers understand the concerto. In particular, the juxtaposition of solo and tutti sections often guides our perceptions of form, dialogue, and meaning for the genre. Some regard the soloist and orchestra as conceptually separate entities, and this is reflected onstage in most modern performances by the physical separation of soloist and orchestra, whose interactions are mediated by a non-playing conductor. This strict division between soloist, orchestral player, and leader was not necessarily what late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century composers had in mind. The bulk of …


Improvisation In Sixteenth-Century Italy: Lessons From Rhetoric And Jazz, John Bass Jan 2012

Improvisation In Sixteenth-Century Italy: Lessons From Rhetoric And Jazz, John Bass

Performance Practice Review

Saying that embellishment was a big deal for sixteenth-­century musicians is hardly a bold move; evidence abounds in treatises, music collections, and written accounts from the time. It has also been the subject of a fair amount of keen musicological scholarship over the years. But making sense out of what musicians of the time actually did in performance and trying to reproduce it today has proven to be more difficult, mainly because improvisers, by nature, do not tend to record what they do. The modern prevailing view seems to be that ornamentation was important, mainly because evidence suggests it was …


Prove It!, Kenny W. Moran Jan 2012

Prove It!, Kenny W. Moran

Journal of Humanistic Mathematics

A dialogue between a mathematics professor, Frank, and his daughter, Sarah, a mathematical savant with a powerful mathematical intuition. Sarah's intuition allows her to stumble into some famous theorems from number theory, but her lack of academic mathematical background makes it difficult for her to understand Frank's insistence on the value of proof and formality.

M.C. Escher's use of dilation symmetry in Path of Life III gives rise to a pattern of logarithmic spirals and an oddly ambiguous sense of depth.


The Day Without Evening: Leo Perutz, Evariste Galois, And Augustine, Andrea Albrecht Jan 2012

The Day Without Evening: Leo Perutz, Evariste Galois, And Augustine, Andrea Albrecht

Journal of Humanistic Mathematics

The biography and historiography of Galois abound with conterfactual imaginations of how the course of mathematics would have been altered, had he not died so young. In the little know short story „The Day Without Evening,“ published in 1924, the Jewish-Austrian writer Leo Perutz essentially reiterates the usual narrative of the events leading to Galois‘ death, masked only by changing the name of the protagonist to Durval and transposing the setting to the Vienna of the beginning of the 20th century. But he is also wary of such counterfactual imaginations. This can be understood in the context of Augustine‘s …
