He attended the University of Maryland and continued his studies at the Cleveland Institute of Music. His teachers have included Elizabeth Morgan and Gerald Fischbach. A passionate educator, Barltrop has served on the faculties of the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra School of Music, and also taught at the University of British Columbia, National Orchestral Institute in Maryland, Australian National Academy of Music and Australian Youth Orchestra. 3

4 PROGRAM NOTES JOHANN SEBASTIAN BACH ( ) Brandenburg Concerto No.3 in G, BWV1048 for three violins, three violas, three cellos and continuo (Allegro) Adagio (Cadenza) Allegro Brandenburg Concerto No.1 in F, BWV1046 for two horns, three oboes, bassoon, violino piccolo, strings and continuo (Allegro) Adagio Allegro Menuet Trio Menuet Polonaise Menuet Trio Menuet The Brandenburg concertos were grouped together, dedicated and sent to the Margrave of Brandenburg by Bach in March 1721 a carefully copied presentation manuscript headed Six concertos with several instruments. However, these concertos were written at different times and scholars still have differing opinions as to exactly when each was written. The great 19th-century Bach scholar Philipp Spitta started referring to the six concertos in shorthand by the name of their dedicatee, and so they became known as the Brandenburg Concertos. Despite the pairing of these concertos in related keys (Nos. 1 and 2 in F, 3 and 4 in G, 5 and 6 in D and B flat both keys with two accidentals), there is so much formal variety and individuality that any sort of monotony is avoided should all six works be played in the same performance. Now that the Brandenburgs are well known, each evokes instant recognition. This is partly a matter, of course, of the variety of Bach s instrumentation. There is a different and unusual concertino (solo group) in each concerto. More importantly, such individuality also rises from the range of styles the Brandenburgs reveal: from the old type of concerto for multiple choirs of instruments (No.3), to an innovative concerto for solo harpsichord, with other obbligato instruments (No.5). Bach s adaptation of the Italian concerto grosso pattern preserves the opposition of concertino and ripieno (orchestral) groups, but the interaction of the instruments within his solo passages are often as rich and detailed as are the tutti. The string writing of Concerto No.3, which we hear first tonight, is similar to many other works produced when Bach was in the service of the court of Anhalt-Cöthen ( ), string writing which was suited to particular players available there. Therefore, it is supposed that No.3 dates from this time. In this concerto, although the strings are arranged in three groups of equal strength, the writing for each instrument is virtuosic at times. The density of texture creates a wall of sound, quite different from the other five concertos in the set. Indeed, the Baroque cellist and scholar Nikolaus Harnoncourt asserts that he knows of no other collection of instrumental compositions in which the individual works have less in common with each 4

5 other than the Brandenburg Concertos. It is certainly the case that every other concerto in the set has significant solo contributions from wind, strings or harpsichord. No.3 seems to be either a concerto grosso or a work for three string choirs, though the first violin does take a lead in setting the themes and has significant solo work in the third movement. This concerto is the most symphonic of the Brandenburgs, but at the same time hearkens back to the traditions of consort music, with its continual conversation between the string groups. The interchangeable themes are continually tossed between the three sections while beneath them the basso continuo maintains a steady dignity. The two Adagio chords linking the outer fast movements probably call for an improvised cadenza, either from the leader of the violins or the continuo harpsichordist. There is, however, a not uncommon practice of interpolating a movement from another of Bach s works. The last movement does approach the manner of a violin concerto, with the leader taking a more independent role, but the violins and violas are still divided into three groups and even though all the basses are now united they still have soloistic contributions. That pleasing wall of sound remains but the wall is always somewhat fluid, sweeping listeners along for an exhilarating ride amongst the waves of sound. Concerto No.1 is the longest and formally the most complex of the set. As well as the standard manuscript form, it also exists in an earlier, shorter version without the solo violino piccolo, a small violin tuned a third higher. It is a three-movement concerto followed by an almost independent sequence of dances around a minuet. The two horns, appearing it seems for the first time in a concerto, make their interventions in the first movement playing in triple time against the duple time of the rest of the band as though heard from outside. They remind us of the hunt (indeed they play various hunting calls), and the horn players were not regular members of Bach s Cöthen ensemble which leads to some interesting speculation as to their usual employment! Adapted from notes David Garrett The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra first performed Brandenburg Concerto No.1 on October 1961 under conductor Georges Tzipine, and most recently in June 2011 with Bernard Labadie. The Orchestra first performed Concerto No.3 on 19 September 1939 with Bernard Heinze, and most recently in February 2006 under the direction of Markus Tomasi. CARL VINE (born 1954) Smith s Alchemy My Third String Quartet was commissioned by the Smith Quartet (London) and first performed by them in The work more or less disappeared from view until 2000, when the Goldner String Quartet played it at the opening of the City Recital Hall, Angel Place in Sydney. It was this performance that caught the ear of Richard Tognetti, and he asked whether I thought it could be arranged for the Australian Chamber Orchestra. The intention of the original work was to transform four players into 5

6 a single super instrument while also capitalising on the natural singing qualities of their instruments a kind of aural alchemy. Although the very structure of the original was predicated on the writing techniques used to create certain effects, this remains much the same in the new version for string orchestra, and some parts required little amendment. The potential to share difficult techniques across more than one instrument has in many ways liberated the music, allowing greater emphasis on its lyrical qualities. Carl Vine 2001 This is the first performance of this work by the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. PĒTERIS VASKS (born 1946) Vox amoris fantasy for violin and string orchestra I started composing the fantasy for violin and orchestra Vox amoris in autumn 2008 and finished the score in early spring What is the message I wanted to announce? It is about the greatest power in the whole world love. Love is, was and will be as long as we will be. I believe that solo violin and string orchestra is the best combination for a love story. The composition, consisting of one single movement, starts with a muted string tremolo. Then the solo violin appears searching, asking, until it blossoms in a broad melody which is supported by a gentle orchestral accompaniment. The solo violin Cadenza I links the introductory part with the central episode. The central part of the composition is built up from two sound waves. The first wave starts softly, slowly, and then the intensity increases, becomes stronger, and then decreases. The second wave is broader, more dramatic. The solo violin part becomes more challenging; the string orchestra plays an active role here. Cadenza II emphasises the way to culmination the highest point is reached when the solo violin and the orchestra meet in a high register, in the highest intensity. A quiet organ point is then the background for images from the beginning. The solo violin once again sings a cantilena of the glory of love. The piece ends in a melancholic yet light mood. Vox amoris was composed for the Australian Chamber Orchestra and its leader Richard Tognetti. I hope this work will reach the listeners making the world a little brighter and more open to love. Pēteris Vasks 2009 This is the first performance of Vox amoris by the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. 6
