The First Walpurgis Night Op.60 : Ballade by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

The First Walpurgis Night Op.60 : Ballade by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

During the summer of 1799, Goethe wrote his ballad “Die erste Walpurgisnacht ” and asked his friend Carl Friedrich Zelter to set the work to music. Zelter however, felt unable to do this, and so Goethe’s wish was only realisedthirty years later by Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy.The “heavenly words” of the pagan ballads had impressed the composer so much after a visit to Weimar, that he was inspired to set them to music. In 1832 thecomposition took shape and was performed a year later in the Sing- Akademie in Berlin.Mendelssohn was, however, unhappy with the first version of the work and held it back, until he decided on a radical revisionofthe work ten years after its premiere. Die “erste Walpurgisnacht” was first performed in 1843 in Leipzig in the presence of Robert Schumann and Hector Berlioz, in the form in which the work is still performed today. Thepublication of this edition by John Michael Cooper, Associate Professor of Music History at the University of North Texas (Denton), makes the work available in an Urtext edition for the first time in time for the 200thanniversary of the composer’s birth.

Ballet Music

Ballet Music

This volume is the second of three planned volumes of ballet music composed between 1759 and 1769 in Vienna. They represent only a small portion of Viennese ballet music attributed to Gluck for which musical sources have been preserved. The volumes form a compendium that offers comprehensive editorial coverage of Gluck’s activities as “Compositore von der Music zu denen Balletten” (composer of the music to the ballets). The present volume contains compositions from the years 1759 and 1760 (and, accordingly, the 1759/60 and 1760/61 seasons).The ballets have been passed down only as sets of parts. They were commissioned by Count Joseph Adam Prince of Schwarzenberg andoriginated around the time of the premiere performances from the workshops of Viennese copyists. Today, they are housed in the State Regional Archive Ceský Krumlov (with the exception of the sinfonia for “Le Prix de la Danse”, which has also been handed down as a composition by Ignaz Holzbauer.)The ballet music works consist of a series of mostly short but occasionally lengthier movements that can be repeated or joined into larger musical units. “Les Corsaires” and “Le Prix de la Danse” were both premiered in December 1759 at the Kärntnertortheater in Vienna with choreographies by Charles Bernardi, while Gasparo Angioloni most likely created the choreographies for “Le Berger magicien”, “Les Miquelets espagnols”, and “Le Naufrage” (premiered in 1759 at the Burgtheater), as well as those for “Les Faunes” and “Les Trois Couleurs” (premiered in 1760 at the same venue).The two Bernardi ballets are the only examples for which scenic descriptions have been recorded in the chronicle of theatrical performances by court dancer and ballet master Philipp Gumpenhuber. However, telling titles and works with similar contents help to reconstruct the thematic orientation of the respective ballets.
