AUSTRALIAN CHAMBER ORCHESTRA PRESENTS DIRECTED BY MALIN BROMAN 14 23 JUNE VIC TOUR PRINCIPAL PARTNER: ACO COLLECTIVE PRESENTING PARTNER

MESSAGE FROM THE MANAGING DIRECTOR It is hard to fathom that Schubert lived for only 31 years. During his short life, he composed some 1,500 pieces. On average, assuming he wasn t composing from birth, he wrote more than one piece per week for his entire life. This is even more impressive when you consider the timeless quality of his compositions, three of which are being performed on this tour. You will hear both the original Death and the Maiden lied (song), in an arrangement by Marco Mazzeo, as well as his majestic String Quartet in D minor, which uses the lied as its inspiration, in an arrangement by ACO Artistic Director Richard Tognetti. The program begins with a short Rondo, composed when Schubert was just 19. Rounding out the program, we have pieces from a pair of British composers, separated by some 300 years or so. Two songs by John Dowland will be followed by pioneering 20th-century musical icon Benjamin Britten s homage to Dowland, written for violist William Primrose. For this tour, ACO Collective Artistic Director Pekka Kuusisto has entrusted our six Emerging Artists to accomplished Guest Director, Malin Broman. We are delighted to welcome Malin to the ACO family. I thank Virgin Australia for supporting ACO Collective on this tour. As the ACO s Principal Partner, we rely heavily on Virgin to enable us to fulfil our performances across the country, and for this, we are eternally grateful. Special and significant thanks also to Wesfarmers Arts, ACO Collective s Principal Partner. Their vision and generosity enables tours such as these to come to fruition. I do hope that you enjoy the concert. Richard Evans 2 AUSTRALIAN CHAMBER ORCHESTRA

ABOUT THE MUSIC FRANZ SCHUBERT Born Vienna 1797. Died Vienna 1828. RONDO IN A MAJOR FOR VIOLIN AND STRINGS, D.438 This concert is called Death and the Maiden after the nickname for Schubert s great D minor string quartet. But there is a subtext of death and youth behind much of the other music as well. Franz Schubert... [H]e was a model of childlike affection and brotherly good nature. All who knew him were attracted to him... so said an obituary for Schubert, when he died at the age of just 31, in the Wiener Zeitschrift für Kunst, 11 December 1828. But this Rondo is a work from Schubert s 20th year. It is thought to have been written to highlight the violin skills of either himself or his brother, Ferdinand, another member of a family so musical it had had its own string quartet, formed in 1811. We get a very strong sense of the convivial nature of the young Schubert from the memoirs of his friends. Anselm Hüttenbrenner has given us the memorable visual description of the 18-year-old: short of stature, with a full, round face, rather stout, and... spectacles, which he did not take off even during sleep... But what is most remarkable about the young Schubert is the way he teemed with music. The teenage Franz wrote a new song roughly every three days. So, what is this piece like? In two clearly-defined movements, it begins with an Adagio so lyrical we can well understand that Schubert s teacher, Salieri, had urged him to find models in Italian opera. A tripping folk-dance-like theme begins the Rondo whose episodes are formally enlarged through developmental passage-work and changes of key. Perhaps this rondo gives few hints of darker currents that might lurk in Schubert s music, but the previous year Schubert had written his Erlking, the great song that, like Death and the Maiden, conveys death in a harrowing personification. 6 AUSTRALIAN CHAMBER ORCHESTRA

JOHN DOWLAND Born London 1563. Died London 1626. FLOW, MY TEARES IF MY COMPLAINTS COULD PASSIONS MOVE arr. Marco Mazzeo John Dowland [N]ow recognised, according to New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians, as the greatest English composer of lute music and lute songs, Dowland s music is often associated with melancholy. One of his most famous numbers is Semper Dowland semper dolans, which translates as Always Dowland, always sorrowful. But life could be truly precarious life for a catholic in Elizabethan times. Writing to Lord Robert Cecil from Nuremberg in 1595, he pleaded I never loved treason nor treachery nor never knew of any after having incautiously fallen in with anti-elizabethan plotters in Italy. The greatest setbacks he actually suffered though were probably the continual failure to secure appointments in England. Flow, my teares was originally composed as a lute piece called Lachrymæ pavane in 1596, with words subsequently added when it was published in his Second Book of Songs in 1600. This luxuriously beautiful arye would become Dowland s most famous, and has been called probably the most widely known English song of the early 17th century. The song, which uses the dance form of a pavan, begins with a descending motif (a-g-f-e) popularly known as the tear motif (hence the Latin: lachrymæ), which has been used in numerous laments throughout history both as a melody and as a ground bass (e.g. in Monteverdi s Lamento della ninfa). In 1604, Dowland would publish a set of instrumental variations on the theme called Lachrimae, or Seaven Teares, evoking tears shed not only in sorrow, but in joy and gladness. Benjamin Britten would quote the work in the sixth variation of his own Lachrymae, itself a set of variations on another song of Dowland s. If my complaints could passions move, from Dowland s First book of Songs from 1597, would be the inspiration for Britten s Lachrymae. If my complaints uses the rhythms of a galliard to express not only the joys but the sorrows of love. AUSTRALIAN CHAMBER ORCHESTRA 7

BENJAMIN BRITTEN Born Lowestoft 1913. Died Aldeburgh 1976. LACHRYMAE, OP.48A Benjamin Britten and his dog Clytie Extraordinarily partial, Benjamin Britten so loved Dowland s music that a mild joke about it could see a friend frozen out. In 1950, the great violist William Primrose (later to move to Wollongong, and one of ACO Artistic Director Richard Tognetti s first teachers) visited the music festival that Britten and his partner Peter Pears and Eric Crozier (director of Britten s opera, Peter Grimes and librettist for Albert Herring) had founded at Aldeburgh in England s east. As a reward to Primrose for coming, Britten composed a series of variations for viola and piano on a song of Dowland s If my complaints could passions move. Britten s title for the work, Lachrymae, plays to the public s doleful view of Dowland. At the technical level however, the work is a miniature masterpiece of variation. After an introduction using one of Dowland s later phrases, the variations begin with Dowland s song in the bass but the song breaks off as it begins to generate Britten s variations. Thus Britten only uses the first two lines of the song so that each variation ends as if referring to the music for Or make Love see wherein I suffer wrong. In the sixth variation Britten quotes the Dowland song, Flow, my teares. Then he continues working the opening strain of the Dowland song until the final bars of Dowland s song appear entirely in their original harmonisation. The effect is reminiscent of the poignant quotation of the Corinthian folksong in the Violin Concerto ( To the memory of an angel ) of Alban Berg, whom Britten also much admired. The arrangement for viola and string orchestra was made by Britten in February 1976 to honour a promise he had made to violist, Cecil Aronowitz. Britten knew by this stage that his heart valve replacement had not worked but he was probably too weak to undergo another operation. He made his will in March. 8 AUSTRALIAN CHAMBER ORCHESTRA

FRANZ SCHUBERT DEATH AND THE MAIDEN, D.531 arr. Marco Mazzeo Like The Erlking, Death and the Maiden, is a harrowing account of a young person s encounter with Death. The single page of music sets two stanzas only. The simple form is chilling. After a spare chordal introduction, the agitated maiden sings, Pass me by, wild man of bones... Then Death replies in his heavy D minor: Give me your hand... I am a friend and come not to punish you... The music modulates to major tonality (D major in the last bars). The brightening of tone actually increases the sense of finality. Franz Schubert But Schubert wrote this piece in February of 1817, not long after he d written the Rondo. Could a 20-year-old really have such sober apprehension? But death was a familiar presence in the 19th century. The deaths of nine of Schubert s siblings in infancy was only slightly worse than the general 50% infant mortality rate of the time. FRANZ SCHUBERT STRING QUARTET IN D MINOR, D.810 DEATH AND THE MAIDEN arr. Richard Tognetti I. Allegro II. Andante con moto III. Scherzo: Allegro Trio IV. Presto Prestissimo Schubert had been hospitalised in 1823, probably with the syphilis that would eventually claim his life. In February, he wrote to Leopold Kupelwieser: Think of a man whose health can never be restored... ask yourself if such a man is not truly unhappy. This 1824 quartet gets its nickname from the 1817 song, Death and the Maiden, which is used as a source of material for the second movement. The second movement s theme is based essentially on the song s solemn chordal introduction and Death s reply to the girl. The harmonic rhythm of the theme is retained in each variation, only one of which turns to the major key, a rare lightening of mood in this pervasively minor-key work. AUSTRALIAN CHAMBER ORCHESTRA 9

But is it too far-fetched to hear Death s insinuations in the lyrical second subject of the ferocious first movement? The piece begins with a powerful D minor tattoo, whose triplets underlie much of the next 15 minutes. When the music turns to the major for the second subject, can we really relax? The first violin takes flight with almost hysterical semiquavers and hammering semiquavers serve also with triplets as impulses for further development of the ideas. The movement ends quietly, but the sinister note continues with several chromatic inflections before the final soft thuds. To read this movement as a wrestling with Death could be a huge overstatement, but certainly the music is a statement of defiance. The tight organisation of ideas represents intense intellectual control. Franz Schubert by Gustav Klimt The second movement has ended quietly, but quiescence is short-lived as the music plunges into the scherzo. It has been suggested a presentiment of Wagnerian sword-forging music can be heard here. The Trio, however, contrasts very dramatically with arguably the most benign music of the whole work. The next and final movement is a wild and exhausting tarantella. Death obviously appears when an invigoratingly expansive melody transforms into an echo from 1816 of the Erlking s response: You lovely child, come with me. Perhaps this work was composed under cover of great despair, but there is much to celebrate as well. 1824 saw the production of some of Schubert s greatest masterworks not only this, but the A minor and G major quartets and the Great C major symphony, No.9. Finally, this work is also an overwhelmingly impressive piece of musical architecture all achieved against the grain of real-life setbacks and fear. O Death, where is thy sting?
