I would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge MaestroR.JosephScott,whosetirelesseffortsinbringingthe Sammamish Symphony to its present artistic estate canneverbeunderestimated.His resignation as our Music Directorafewmonthsagoforreasonsofhealthhasresonatedthroughout the musical community, a community which hasimmeasurablybenefittedfromhispresencefornearlyfivedecades.Iamdedicatingourentire 2015-16 season to Maestro Scottinrecognitionofhisrarecombinationofmusicianship,guidance,vision,andspirit;ifanyoneeverexemplifiedthephrase“Ahardacttofollow,”itishe.

Program Notesby Adam Stern

whichcomposersoflatergenerationsrecounted their travels in sound, or at least demonstrated their familiaritywith the music of another countryeven if they hadn’t been there.Imaginetherepertoirebereftoftheseimmortal masterworks:

Mozart:ViolinConcertoNo.5inA,K.219,“Turkish”Mendelssohn:SymphonyNo.4inA,Op.90,“Italian”Brahms: Hungarian DancesBizet: CarmenTchaikovsky: Capriccio ItalienRimsky-Korsakov: Capriccio EspagnoleDvořák:SymphonyNo.9ine,Op.95,“From the New World”Elgar: In the South (Alassio)Ravel: BoléroCopland: El Salón Mexico

(Would you wish to be without any ofthese?...Me,neither.)

The five works on today’s programare the results of very differentstimuli, and all are worthy offrequent inclusion on symphonyconcerts whether they have achieved thisstatusornot.

Nicolas Slonimsky (1894-1995 [sic]) was one of the 20th century’s mostbrilliant musicians, a composer-conductor-pianist-author whose versatility and skills were more than matched by an ever-ready wit and pixieishsenseofhumor(theoriginaltitleofhisautobiography,eventuallypublished as Perfect Pitch, was Failed Wunderkind, a Rueful Autopsy). In a 1986interview,hehadthefollowingto say about My Toy Balloon:

...the only piece that I ever wrote of any significance is a series of variations on a Brazilian tune, which I heard during my travels in South America in 1941. It’s a set of variations on a tune that is called “My Toy Balloon” in English; of course the original words are in Portuguese. It’s a Carnival song during which young men and women send up balloons, and if they can catch those balloons when they fall back then he or she would get married during the Carnival that year. If not, then he or she would have to wait till next Carnival.

A quick perusal of the works’individual movement titles will give some idea of what’s to come. More

Composers of classical music havealways enjoyed creating the musical equivalentsofpostcardsand journalentries, detailing their travels to foreign landsandthemanydelightsto be found there. (In at least oneinstance, a composer chronicled something that decidedly did not delight him: Ottorino Respighi,in the second movement of hisBrazilian Impressions, painted a grim and nightmarish musical portrait of the Butantan Institute wheresnakes are raised and researched; his widow Elsa said that he lost sleep over his visit there for yearsafterward.)Inparticular,themusicofaforeigncountryhasoftenpromptedcomposers to celebrate and emulate it. As far back as the first decadeof the 18th century, Georg PhilippTelemann wrote a “Polish” Concerto fororchestra,inspiredbythepeasantbands he had heard there; his desire to commemorate, as he put it, the folk music’s “true barbaric beauty”and “the inventiveness with which thesepipersandfiddlersimprovise”resulted in a rowdy little concerto grosso that’safarcryfromthefestivebutmore“proper”musicofthetime.Following is a short list ofworks in

than that I won’t say, as there are some delightful surprises along thewaythatarejusttoogoodtospoil.

The106knownsymphoniesofFranz Joseph Haydn(1732-1809)constituteoneofthegreatesttreasure-trovesinsymphonic literature (the qualifier“known” is used in the event [crossing fingers!] that another oneor more come to light some day).There is virtually nothing that anyonecouldcovetfrommusicthatcannot be found in these riches, beit humor (No. 60, “Il Distratto” or No.94,“Surprise”), lyricism(No.44,“Mourning”orNo.49,“La Passione”), stormy drama (No. 52), celebration(No. 48, “Maria Theresia”) musical verisimilitude(No.101,“The Clock”), uniqueness of key and structure(No.46inB[!]major),oranyotherdesideratumonemightharbor.

The Symphony No. 92, “Oxford”,

acquired its nickname due to itsappearance on a 1791 concert thatHaydn conducted as a requirementof his receiving an honorary degreefrom Oxford University. Interestingthat,inspiteofatitlethatbindsittoLondon, it is not one of the twelve“London”symphonies(Nos.93-104);none of these latter were finishedwhen Haydn came to England’s capital to accept his honor and begin an extended residency, so Haydn introduced to British audiences a recently-completed symphony that had actually had its premiere in Paris not long before. There isn’t a singleHaydn symphony that doesn’t boast unique features; in the present caseone can cite an introduction that, short though it is, is ofmelting beauty, aslow movement that combines reverie with temperamental outbursts, and a fleetfinale whose puckish main theme isfirstheardover thebarestofcelloaccompaniments. It is theMenuetto,

however, which has elicited the most comment from enthusiasts, inthat Haydn’s penchant for comedyis given such free rein. One of thedistinguishing features of a minuet,derived as it is from a peasantdance called the Ländler, is a steady and readily discernible ONE-two-three, ONE-two-three pulse; Haydn has a jolly good time turning this expectation on its head throughout the movement, arbitrarily stressing thesecondorthirdbeatofthemeasureto the point where one’s rhythmic sense is totally discombobulated.There are also some unexpected and delicious pauses in the music, proving that Haydn was well ahead ofhistimeintermsofcapitilizingontheeffectivenessofsilence(takethat, adherentsofJohnCage!).

Although not remembered to the legendary degree as is Niccolò Paganini, Pablo de Sarasate (1844-

1908)was one of themost honored,respected and sought-after violinsoloists of the 19th century. Aprodigy, his gifts were recognizedwhen he was still a child and his musical educationwas funded by awealthypatron.Onceestablished,heled the peripatetic life of a touringvirtuoso, invariably leaving awed fans and superlative-seeking criticsin his wake. Several notable staplesof theviolin repertoirewerewrittenfor him: Lalo’s Symphonie espagnole, Brush’s Scottish Fantasy, Wieniewski’s Violin Concerto No. 2 and, perhaps most loved of all, both Saint-Saëns’Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso and Violin Concerto No. 3. (One piece that did not grace Sarasate’s repertoire was the Brahms Violin Concerto, whichhe refused toplaydue to hisfamousassertion,aproposthesecondmovement, that “the oboe has the onlyrealmelodyintheentirework.”)

Sarasate’s “Carmen” Fantasy is very much a product of its time,when virtuosi on all instruments would take familiarpieces andbasevariations, fantasies, suites andpotpourris after them. (The practicecontinued until well into the 20th century; perhaps the last great such piece was Rachmaninov’s Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini,written,aswasall of Rachmaninov’s piano music,withhimself inmind.)AppreciatingtheFrenchmanBizet’sassimilationofSpanish folkmusic within his greatopera, Sarasate returned the favorand fashioned a medley comprised

of some of Carmen’s greatest hits, while not incidentally pushing the violin to its technical limits in the process. The listener is affordedthe enviable opportunity to revisit, courtesy of Sarasate’s inventivenessand prodigious demands, such beloved moments as the Aragonaise, the Habanera, and the Danse Bohème. (Note: Please observe that there is no tilde over the “n” in “Habanera”, one of the most oft-mispronouncedwords in music. If you ever hearsomeone say “Ha-ban-yer-a”, please correctthemwithmycompliments.)

Sir Malcolm Arnold (1921-2006)wasa much-honored and -performedEnglishcomposer.LikecompatriotsRalph Vaughan Williams, Benjamin BrittenandWilliamWalton,hewrotemusic in virtually every genre: ballet and opera, orchestral (including nine symphonies), choral, chamber music, and a staggering amount (severaldozen)offilmscores,amongthem Hobson’s Choice, The Inn of the Sixth Happiness, thefirstfilmversionof Nineteen Eighty Four, and, most famously, The Bridge on the River Kwai.Hispersonallifewascomplexand troubled, yet his fecunditysurvived intact for the duration ofhislonglife;hislastworksdatefromthe1990s,whenthecomposerwasinhiseighthdecade.

The Four Scottish Dances date from1957; although written for the BBCLight Music Festival, these are by no means insubstantial miniatures.

Arnold’sgiftsasavividorchestratorare well in evidence in each dance (he spent years as a professionalorchestral trumpet player, and thus knew theorchestra“from the insideout”), whether in the foot-stompingPesante first movement, the “How-dry-I-am” central episode of theVivace, the pastoral and romantic Allegretto or the whirlwind finaldance, Con brio. In paying homage to music he obviously cherished, ArnoldmadeuseofsomeofScottishfolk music’s most significant traits,including the “Scotch snap” (the musical counterpart to a trochee) and some remarkable orchestral replicationsof thebagpipes. So trueto the sound and feel of Scottishmusic are Arnold’s Dances that many listeners are surprised to learn that the tunes are not settings of extantoriginals,butareArnold’sown.

Unarguably the most famous workon our program, An American in Paris by George Gershwin (1898-1937)hasbeenahitsinceitspremierein 1928; its popularity was furtherbuoyed (as if it needed to be) bythe immortal 1951 film with GeneKelly (Gershwin’s music and Kelly’s dancing and choreography were made for each other). AlthoughGershwin’s ego was not exactly ofmodestdimensions,intheopinionofthe present writer he may have sold An American in Paris short when he commented:

A final personal note: I regardthe passing of George Gershwinat the age of 38 as one of music’sgreatest tragedies, along with the before-40deathsofMozart,Schubert,Mendelssohn,BizetandChopin.Hadany of these geniuses been affordedeven one more decade, we would

know... It’s a humorous piece, nothing solemn about it. It’s not intended to draw tears. If it pleases symphony audiences as a light, jolly piece, a series of impressions musically expressed, it succeeds.

Itcertainlypleasesforthosereasons,but not only for those reasons.The tender solos for English hornand oboe, representing the titular American’s“spasmofhomesickness”(toquotethecomposer’sownprecis), and the great, celebrated bluesy tune for trumpet, are some of themost poignant moments in all ofAmerican music, period. Gershwin

have been the beneficiaries of thatmuch more beauty in a world that so desperatelyneedsit.
