2 ABOUT THE BOSTON CONSERVATORY The Boston Conservatory trains exceptional young performing artists for careers that enrich and transform the human experience. Known for its multi-disciplinary environment, the Conservatory offers fully accredited graduate and undergraduate programs in Music, Dance, Theater and Music Education, and presents more than 200 performances each year by students, faculty and guest artists. The intimacy of our class settings provides a student-centered atmosphere that is uniquely intensive and supportive. Since its founding in 1867, The Boston Conservatory has shared its talent and creativity with the city of Boston, the region and the nation, and continues to grow today as a vibrant community of artists and educators. Moreover, our Conservatory Connections outreach program brings student performances to more than 50 homeless shelters, hospitals, senior centers, schools and public libraries in Boston annually. This performance has been made possible in part by gifts from individuals, foundations, corporations and government agencies who support the hard work and extraordinary talent of our students, faculty and guest artists.

5 Program Notes VORES- Harmonie du Soir Baudelaire s poem is in the form of a pantoum, where the second and fourth lines of one stanza become the first and third lines of the next, but with altered meaning or emphasis (it actually is an irregular pantoum because it departs from the expected rhyme scheme). This form seems to me to lend itself so well to Baudelaire s subject matter waves of sound and scent in the evening air. In this setting the women s chorus sing simple alternating arpeggiated chords (essentially G major and F major triads) while the strings provide a hazy backdrop of buzzing and coiling activity. The rhythm of the vocal line is taken directly from Debussy s setting of this poem while the pitches and melodic contour are my own and quite different from Debussy s. The music of both the strings and the chorus becomes plainer, stiller, darker and calmer as this short work continues; the three-part chorus becomes unison and the lower strings take over from the high swirls heard at the opening. Andy Vores FAURÉ & MESSAGER- Messe des Pêcheurs de Villerville This little mass had a quite unexpected origin. In 1880, Fauré and Messager were often guests of their friends Camille and Marie Clerc, manufacturers in Le Havre. Devoted amateurs of music, the Clerc s received many musicians during the summer months at their villa in Villerville on the Normandy coast. The two men were long-standing friends, Messager having been Fauré s first pupil when the latter had taught, briefly, at the Ecole Niedermeyer in Both later became choirmasters. It was during their stay at Villerville, in late August 1881, where they had the idea of collaborating on a new work for a performance by ladies from the village and some girls on holiday, in aid of the local fishermen s association. The original manuscript of 1881 shows the improvised nature of the enterprise: the final Agnus Dei is a comprehensive sketch by Fauré, just sufficient for the planned performance on Sunday, September 3 rd in the parish church still redolent with the honor of having greeted Charles Gounod in earlier days. The state of the manuscript leads one to think that Fauré played the harmonium while Messager conducted. Ten or so voices accompanied by a humble harmonium and a violin solo gave an excellent account of this music, according to Marie Clerc, who was one of the second sopranos. The parish mass, preceded by a procession of fishermen with banners in the streets of the village, lived up to expectations. The collection came to 560 francs, which is nice for a poky place like Villerville, commented Madame Clerc. In September 1882, Fauré was again in Normandy: I have had a long and very pleasant stay in Villerville with my friends the Clercs, he wrote to Henriette Fuchs. I have found a group of very good musicians and some pretty voices and with this keen ensemble gave a performance of a little mass I wrote, accompanied by a small orchestra. Despite the high spirits of the rehearsals, or perhaps because of the high spirits of the rehearsals, the performance was excellent and this improvised choir, as fine to the eyes as to the ears, was welcome relief to my solemn Madeleine! The success of the 1881 performance of the Messe des pêcheurs led to another, one year later (September 10, 1882). It was decided that the score would be orchestrated for a small ensemble, something which turned out to be difficult to put together. Messager in fact wrote to Camille Clerc on August 18, in an unpublished letter: Do I orchestrate, do I not orchestrate? I confess I am in a quandary. The Kyrie and part of the Gloria are already done; but I shall not continue if we cannot find the necessary performers. This must be settled. Please drop me a line, therefore, to help me out.

6 [ ] If we have not got an orchestra for our mass, it would be annoying if we do not set up a new one for this year. The same twice over is not the done thing! Messager, an expert in the field, had, as we have seen, dealt with the orchestration, with the exception of the Agnus Dei which Fauré orchestrated from his own sketch, almost illegible for anyone other than himself. The ensemble consisted of flute, oboe, B flat clarinet (one of each), double string quintet and harmonium. The two composers shared out the parts of the mass as follows: Kyrie: Messager; Gloria: Fauré; Sanctus: Fauré; O Salutaris (motet): Messager; Agnus Dei: Fauré. Each made skillful use of the little three-part choir of sopranos I, sopranos II and altos, varying the vocal writing and including, in a very natural manner, short unison passages for the more forceful moments (Gloria, end of the Kyrie), and polyphonic passages in two parts, or in responsorial style (the voices alternating), Fauré more often using three-part polyphonic writing, notably in the admirable Agnus Dei that concludes the mass. The violin solo from the original version appears in the course of the two Messager movements and Fauré s Gloria, but in the orchestral version it occurs only in Messager s O Salutaris. This Messe des pêcheurs was composed by Fauré and Messager as music from the heart; it is delicate, melodious and gentle, revealing a conception of religious music fairly close to the Messe breve for children s voices of Leo Delibes or the motets of Gounod. The religious faith of a Gounod is quite different from that of a Franck or a Bach. Gounod is all heart and Franck is all mind, declared Fauré in this connection. In an interview on his Requiem that one critic qualified as pagan, he protested: People have criticized Gounod s religious music for leaning too much towards human tenderness. Yet his nature predisposed him in this way; with him religious emotion took that form. Should one not accept the nature of an artist? After the two performances at Villerville, the score of the Messe des Pêcheurs de Villerville remained in the shade until, under pressure of a contract with his publisher Heugel, Fauré decided, in 1906, to publish extracts of it, while making fairly extensive modifications: a new Kyrie was substituted for that of Messager; only the gentler passage Qui tollis (adapted to the words of the Benedictus) was retained from the Gloria, judged to be somewhat too martial. Here and there, the Sanctus and the Agnus Dei were modified as to the melodic line, the prosody and, sometimes, the harmony. The work was published in 1907 under the title Messe basse with organ accompaniment. [The Messe basse will be performed by The Boston Conservatory s Women s Chorus April 18 th, 2009.] Having discovered the original Villerville version in the house of Jacqueline Ceillier, the grand-daughter of Caille and Marie Clerc, I had the pleasure of hearing it a hundred years after its first performance, in the church of Saint-Saens, a village in Normandy, sung by the Maltrise de Radio France under the direction of Henri Farge (9 June 1980), then at Strasburg under Roger Delage (22 March 1984), before Philippe Herreweghe recorded it on CD in 1988 with the Requiem (first recording of the 1893 version). These various performances were sufficiently convincing for it to be decided to publish the version for small orchestra (1882), including Messager s pieces, which had not hitherto been published. In the meanwhile, the autographed copies and the original parts had been added to the Fauré collection in the French Bibliotheque Nationale in 1985, thanks to the generosity of Mesdames Ceillier and Maspero. It may well be thought that the version published by Fauré (Messe basse) is more temperate and musically more perfect. I am however convinced that many people will be attracted by the charm of the original version, so limpid, so lyrical, of this little rustic mass, this little holiday mass, far removed from the pomp and ceremony of worship at the Madeleine.

7 MOZART-Mass In c minor, k. 427 Mozart, in a letter to his father in 1777: "God is ever before my eyes. I realize His omnipotence and I fear His anger, but I also recognize His love, His compassion and His tenderness toward His creatures. He will never forsake His own. If it is according to His will, so let it be according to mine. Thus all will be well, and I must be happy and contented." Distinguished Harvard professor of music Robert Levin, a noted Mozart authority, said Mozart s spirituality also shines through his more than sixty pieces of church music. Mozart s Catholicism is a powerful, affirmative force, without being subject to the stick of terror, threatening eternal damnation to those who didn t believe, Levin said. It s (the c minor mass) overwhelmingly music of tenderness, empathy and at times of grandeur. The Mass in c minor could certainly be described using all of Levin s terms and many others agree that the music borders on the operatic with its extreme dramatic contrasts and bold harmonic language not found in any works of the same period. The music also embodies the pomp and ceremony associated with the Salzburg traditions of the time while showing clear influences (especially the fugal writing) from Bach and Handel, whose music Mozart was studying at the time. Although incomplete, (the work is missing most of the texts from the Credo, musical portions of the Sanctus, and all of the Agnus Dei) the grandeur of its conception has been compared to other musical monuments such as the B minor mass of Bach. It is likely that Mozart spliced in additional movements from his earlier Masses for the premiere in October Our performance will include only the music from movements originally conceived as part of this torso masterpiece. Mozart began work on the Mass in c minor in the summer of To fulfill a promise to his wife Constanze, he would perform a Mass in her honor when he took her to Salzburg to meet his father, who had not given the marriage his blessing. The Mass was rehearsed on August 23rd and performed in the Benedictine Abbey of St. Peter on August 26, 1783 with Constanze herself singing one of the solo soprano parts. William Cutter

Every flower exhales perfume like a censer; The violin quivers like a tormented heart; Melancholy waltz and languid vertigo! The sky is sad and beautiful like an immense altar. The violin quivers like a tormented heart, A tender heart, that hates the vast, black void! The sky is sad and beautiful like an immense altar; The sun has drowned in his blood which congeals...
