5 MSO CHORUS For more than 50 years the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra Chorus has been the unstinting voice of the Orchestra s choral repertoire. In 2017 the Chorus joins forces with the Orchestra on more than 20 different occasions to perform some of the most moving and inspiring repertoire from the canon, as well as once again presenting its own a cappella performances. The MSO Chorus sings with the finest conductors including Sir Andrew Davis, Edward Gardner, Mark Wigglesworth, Bernard Labadie, Vladimir Ashkenazy and Manfred Honeck, and is committed to developing and performing new Australian and international choral repertoire. Commissions include Brett Dean s Katz und Spatz, Ross Edwards Mountain Chant, and Paul Stanhope s Exile Lamentations. Recordings by the MSO Chorus have received critical acclaim. It has performed across Brazil and at the Cultura Inglese Festival in Sao Paolo, in Kuala Lumpur with the Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra, with The Australian Ballet, Sydney Symphony Orchestra, at the AFL Grand Final and at Anzac Day commemorative ceremonies. WARREN TREVELYAN-JONES Warren Trevelyan-Jones was born in the United Kingdom, and began his singing career as a Choral Scholar and Lay Clerk in Exeter Cathedral Choir, graduating in music at the University in Warren is a regular member of many of the leading early music ensembles both in Britain and abroad. These include Vocalconsort Berlin, the Gabrieli Consort, Taverner Consort, Orchestra of the Renaissance, The Kings Consort, Dunedin Consort and La Chapelle Royale of Paris. He has also performed with The Sixteen and the Tallis Scholars. PAUL STANHOPE (born 1969) The Heavens Declare A Choral Symphony for large chorus and orchestra Inspired by a camping trip on a remote part of Fraser Island, The Heavens Declare is Australian composer Paul Stanhope s response to the spectacular and moving sight of the night-time sky and blanket of stars. In Stanhope s own words, 'the work is a setting of four Old Testament texts in their Latin translations: a section from the creation story in Genesis (which I imagined as a dreamtime story), two joyful Psalm excerpts, and a more angstridden passage from the Book of Job. 'The two Psalm settings are joyful, rhythmic choral dances, while the central setting of the Job text agonises over the insignificance of humankind in relation to the vastness of the universe.' The Heavens Declare was commissioned in 1999 by Sydney Philharmonia Choirs. The 2016 revision performed this evening was commissioned by Juliet Tootel for the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. Adapted from a note by Paul Stanhope 2016 *The MSO and the MSO Chorus will perform The Heavens Declare in Hamer Hall only 5
6 PROGRAM NOTES GUSTAV MAHLER ( ) Symphony No.7 in E minor Langsam Allegro risoluto, ma non troppo Nachtmusik: Allegro moderato Scherzo: Schattenhaft Nachtmusik: Andante amoroso Rondo-finale In 1904, within weeks of completing the Sixth Symphony, Mahler was busily sketching his next symphony, and had soon made architectural drawings of the two Nachtmusik (night music) movements. Given his heavy conducting schedule in Vienna, Mahler had to wait until the following summer s vacation before he could return to serious composition. He then experienced a composer s block that he tried, as ever, to exorcise through vigorous physical activity such as hiking in the Dolomite mountains. This had no effect, so Mahler gave it up, and returned home. However he found that once he ceased concentrating on the work, the ideas started to flow: he got into a boat on the lake at Maiernigg to return to his holiday retreat and, as he wrote to his wife, Alma: At the first stroke of the oars, the theme of the introduction to the first movement came into my head and in four weeks the first, third and fifth movements were written. Mahler then turned to orchestrating his longest and most detailed score. The instrumentation requires an expansion of the conventional orchestra, particularly the wind and percussion and two very unusual instrumental visitors. Some critics have treated the work with suspicion. After the existential bleakness of the Sixth, the Seventh seems to retreat into a more conventional optimism and, in doing so, resorts to 'gimmickry' such as the inclusion of guitar and mandolin in the orchestra. But it could equally be seen as representing the transition from the despair of the Sixth to the joyful paean to divine creativity in the Eighth. The work s trajectory passes through various nocturnal worlds but finally reaches a world of light. And it is significant that Mahler s description of that opening theme was Here Nature roars! Gordon Kerry 2010 Sir Charles Mackerras conducted the first performance of Mahler s Symphony No.7 by the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, on 4 May The Orchestra most recently performed it on March 2011 under the direction of Mark Wigglesworth. 6
7 PROGRAM NOTES SIR ANDREW DAVIS ON MAHLER 7 Mahler's Seventh Symphony was long regarded as the most puzzling of all his works. While the three middle movements have always been favourably received, the first movement and the Finale were but little understood. Some of the objections to the former have included the fact that the theme of the introduction remains as the first idea of the Allegro what's wrong with that?! and the moments of time standing still in the central section (the march theme slowed almost to a stop) were seen as impeding the music's momentum - again this is something that Mahler had been doing for as long as he'd been writing symphonies! Nevertheless the shape of the movement is complicated and the mood veers between introspection and manic energy in a way that challenges interpreters. I hold to the view that in this movement, which is the one that gave the composer the most trouble, he is struggling to emerge from the bleak world of the Sixth Symphony with its dreadful hammer blows of fate, and that the real sense of triumph of the almost schizophrenic relish of the finale s mastery has only been won by passing through the strenuous effort of the first movement and the twilight world of the middle three. Mahler conducted a performance of the symphony in Amsterdam, preceding it with three works by Wagner the Faust Overture, Siegfried Idyll (his love song to his wife) and the Prelude to Die Meistersinger (whose shadow in the symphony's finale is hard to miss). I must confess to being attracted to the theory put forward by Niall O'Loughlin that this is a Faust symphony, in which the first movement portrays the tensions between Faust (main theme), Mephistopheles (march) and Gretchen (lyrical second subject). The second is Faust wandering in the countryside at night, the scherzo the nocturnal meeting between Faust and Mephistopheles in Goethe's Walpurgisnacht, the fourth Mahler's own love song, and the Finale the triumph of love over the devil in this context the unexpected brass chord in the penultimate bar would, I suppose, be Mephistopheles displaying his horns one last time before being obliterated by C major! Fanciful but intriguing! However, whatever extra-musical notions may be inspired by this work, for me at least it is one of Mahler's most extraordinary creations. And I am most eager, as we continue our remarkable symphonic journey, to convince you too! Sir Andrew Davis Chief Conductor Melbourne Symphony Orchestra 7
