23年コンサート#54
4月22日 NHKホール
パーヴォ・ヤルヴィ指揮NHK交響楽団 第1981回定期演奏会
ルーセル 弦楽のためのシンフォニエッタ
プーランク シンフォニエッタ
イベール 室内管弦楽のためのティヴェルティスマン
フランス新古典主義、第二次大戦前後の作品特集。パーヴォのシャープでソリッドで、しかも抉るところは抉る、巧みさが存分に発揮されたプログラム。ふつうなら、曲の長さと編成の大きさからプーランクのシンフォニエッタを最後に据えるのだろうが、あえてイベールをトリに持ってきた。心にくいセンス。
爽快なプーランクも勿論素晴らしかったが、やはり今日はこれ、イベールのディヴェルティスマンだろう。もともと喜劇につけられた音楽からまとめられた組曲という曲の性格に相応しい、シャープでスタイリッシュでかつ遊び心いっぱいの演奏だった。近年、度々N響公演に出演するちょっと強面(でも熱く優しいひととお見受けする)長尾洋史氏の活躍も目覚ましい。そしてフィナーレではパーヴォのホイッスルに加えて楽員のパフォーマンス(坂口弦太郎さんの大ジャンプにびっくり、若手じゃないぞ)。その伏線には、サプライズの少し前、客席の思わ��笑い声を引き出したパーヴォのちょっと大袈裟な溜めがあった。楽き哉。

Comoedia, 5 February 1934 (note the picture of Harry Baur by the masthead!)
So I learned that the 1934 Les Mis film premiered two nights before a far-right anti-government riot! And you can feel that there was a crisis about to happen in this account of the movie's premiere:
A rough start to the night: there’s the taxi driver’s strike and there’s the parliamentary crisis. The latest information passed from mouth to mouth and most journalists arrived late, bearing the most recent news.
“So Emile Fabre is jumping ship?” [Fabre was the director of the Comédie-Française and was apparently being pressured to leave.]
“It’s a scandal!”
“It’s disgraceful!”
“What folly!”
“And who is replacing him?”
“George Thomé.” [Thomé was a musician as well as the former director the Sûreté.]
“Seriously?! They’re going to be cuffing the Comedie-Francaise.”
Emile Fabre makes his entrance, followed by his charming daughter. He is just as soon surrounded and interrogated.
“I don’t understand! I don’t understand!”
“No one understands.”
“There is too much to understand.”
Our editor-in-chief, who has not always been fond of Emile Fabre, is spotted by his side; he shakes his hand cordially and I note that Pierre Lazareff [editor-in-chief of Paris-Soir] notes this effusive sympathy.
A political star enters!...M. [François] Piétri [briefly the Minister of Finance]…thoughtfully and hurriedly, he passes by on swift feet which recently exercised a wise retreat that was, if I dare say, a step ahead of wisdom. He joins Mme. Piétri….It’s impossible to get him to open up!...
Caught up in the commotion of the crowd, I hear this brief dialog between a political columnist and a deputy:
“And how are your ‘misérables’ doing?”
“They are waiting for their Monseigneur Myriel!”
The huge Marignan theater is too cramped for this crowd of guests. Luckily Jean-José Frappa and his second in command, Mme. Audibert, thought of everything, took care of everything… And everyone is able to get to the coat check and find his place easily. Because the taxi strike and political events delayed hundreds of people, who then arrived all at once and with haste, this was not an easy task.
Who was there? Tout-Paris...I randomly noted with my pencil:
Messueirs Paul Abram, Achard, De Adler, Berneuil, Archimbaud, André Aron, Arnaud, Louis Aubert, Aubin, Kujay, Kertée, Azaïs, Bacré, Barthe, Baschet, Baudelocque, Harry-Baur, Bavelier, Robert de Beauplan, Antonin Bédier, Pierre Benoit, Mme Spinelly, Charles Delac and Marcel Vandal, Léon Benoit-Deutsch, André Lang, René Lehmann, Bellanger, Mag Bernard, Tristan Bernard, Jean-Jacques Bernard, Louis Bernard, Dr. Etiënne Bernard (all the Bernards!)...Bernheim, Bernier, Guilaume Besnard, Bétove, Bizet, Blumsteien, Mme Rocher, Boesflug, Pierre de la Boissière, Bollaert, Bouan, Boucher, Robert Bos, Pierre Bost, Paul Brach, Henry Roussell, Charles Burguet, Pierre Brisson, Simone Cerdan, Henry Clerc, Albert Clemenceau, Pière Colombier, Germaine Dulac,Henri Diamant-Berger, Julien Duvivier,Jean Epstein, Fernand Gregh, Mary Glory, René Heribel, Tania Fédor, Alice Field, Jacqueline Francell, Mary Marquet, Florelle, Marguerite Moreno, Françoise Rosay, Becq de Fouquière, Jean Servais, Vidalin, Maria Vaisamaki, Orane Demazis, Rachel Deviry, Rosine Deréan, Jacques Deval, Christiane Delyne, Renée Devillers, Jean Chataigner, Germaine Dermoz, Léon Voltera, Robert Trébor, our director, Jean Laffray, Lucie Derain, Paul Gordeaux, Jean Narguet, Parlay, Suzet Maïs, Antoine Rasimi, Renée de Saint-Cyr, Jean Toulout, Mady Berry, Yolande Laffont, Jean Max, Parysis, Charles Gallo, Léo Poldès, Jean Fayard, Edmonde Guy, Mario Roustan, Paul Strauss, Cavillon, Emile Vuillermoz, Josselyne Gaël, Charles Vanel, S. E. Si Kaddour ben Gabhrit, the duke and duchess of Mortemart, Madame Henry Paté, Marcel Prévost, Louise Weiss, Alfred Savoir, Henri Duvernois, Paul Gémon, magistrate Maurice Garçon, magistrate Campinchi, Sylvette Fillâcier, Jean Heuzé, Pierre, Heuzé, Mona Goya, Simon-Cerf, W.E. Hœndeler, Georges Midlarsky, Michel, Nadine Picard….and others I must be forgetting…pardon me!....Silence!....
In the glow of the half-light from the screen….there are applause! Not since les Croix de bois has a movie been so highly anticipated and now it is time for the verdict….Raymond Bernard can be sure that the audience is rooting for him.
Our eyes are full with light and pretty colors. This Paris night is practically magical…and departing from that magic, we are plunged into the great river of les Misérables, into the furious waters of this social storm.
Luckily André Lang and Raymond Bernard have made the trip for us.
What contrast! From the spectacle of an elegant and distinguished gathering, we move to the misfortunes of Jean Valjean.
The audience picks up on everything that could be an allusion to the present times. But of all these allusions, one stands out. It’s the lament of two gossips, at the moment when the barricades are rising.
“What sad times!”
“We’ve barely made it through the cholera…and here is the Republic!”
Thunderous applause and mad laughter.
When, on the barricades, the Republic calls on us to act, the spectators think of other promised actions which haven’t happened and they forget to applaud.
But the whole audience is prodigiously virtuous; whenever a good deed is shown on the screen, when some sentence about the heart graces the white canvas, it is punctuated by applause.
After the first film, stop!... Time to eat! There’s a mad dash to the punchbowl. In the haste of this day of crisis and running late, many in the audience did not have time for dinner….the buffet, in the blink of an eye, is emptied and the dry drinks make vindictive and impassioned discussions flow. High and low, here and there, everyone was speaking of the Parliment's chances and the intermission bell sounds in an atmosphere charged with electricity.
The two other parts of the film, cut by another intermission, each end with a double ovation for Harry Baur, both in the lobby and in the theater.
The little Gaby Triquet is passed from person to person towards a chocolate eclair, which she leaves a trace of on the cheeks of Harry Baur.
And then as usual everyone rushes to the coat check.
Then we go to the fifth floor of the Marignan building. There, in an unoccupied apartment, dinner waits for us. There are more than a thousand of us around little eight-person tables.
Ten thousand meters of film, that will make you hungry! Three orchestras pour out waltzes, tangos, and other tunes, while the masters of the hotel fill up our cups.
And that continued to six thirty in the morning, in an atmosphere of charming cordiality as each person attested to the pleasure of seeing French cinema accomplish such a feat.
Bernard Natan and Raymond Bernard were too surrounded for me to speak to them. Besides, what could I say to them that they haven’t already heard ten times, a hundred times, a thousand times that evening, which was the apotheosis of cinema and of Les Misérables.
-Jean-Pierre Liausu

Alexander Voormolen (1895-1980) Een zomerlied : voor orkest (1928) Orchestra: Omroeporkest Conductor: Kenneth Montgomery dedicated to Albert van Raalte
Alexander Voormolen was a Dutch composer. He studied composition in Utrecht with Johan Wagenaar and with Willem and Martinus. In 1916, on the recommendation of Rhené Baton (who conducted his overture to Maeterlinck's La mort de Tintagiles at The Hague in 1916), he went to Paris, where he worked with Roussel and became close to Ravel, Casella, Delius and Florent Schmitt. He returned to settle in the Netherlands in 1920, first in Veere and moved to The Hague in 1923. For many years he was music critic for the Nieuwe Rotterdamsche Courant, and then from 1938 to 1955 he was librarian of the Conservatory of The Hague.

OTD in Music History: Composer and pedagogue Vincent d'Indy (1851 – 1931) died in France.
As a young man, D'Indy studied under composer Cesar Franck (1822 - 1890) at the Paris Conservatoire in the 1870's; for the rest of his life, he idolized Franck as his musical ideal, and ultimately wrote a celebrated biography of his cherished mentor in 1912.
But in some ways, the entire decade of the 1870's was a veritable whirlwind of artistic inspiration for D'Indy -- during the summer of 1873 he visited Germany and met with met both Franz Liszt (1811 - 1886) and Johannes Brahms (1833 - 1897), and in 1875 he played a minor role – "The Prompter" – in the world premiere of Georges Bizet's (1838 - 1875) opera "Carmen." Finally, in 1876, he attended the very first production of Richard Wagner's (1813 - 1883) "Ring cycle" at Bayreuth; this made a great impression on him, and he quickly became a fervent Wagnerian.
D'Indy's influence as a teacher was considerable: In 1894, he co-founded the "Schola Cantorum de Paris" (an important private music school), and he also taught at the Paris Conservatoire. His students included Erik Satie (1866 - 1925), Albert Roussel (1869 - 1937), (1866 - 1925), Arthur Honegger (1892 - 1955), Darius Milhaud (1892 - 1974), and -- of all people -- American Broadway composer Cole Porter (1891 - 1964).
As a composer, unfortunately, d'Indy has languished. Few of d'Indy's works are performed regularly in concert halls today, and the Grove Dictionary of Music observes that his famed veneration for Ludwig van Beethoven (1770 - 1827) and Franck "has unfortunately obscured the individual character of his own compositions, particularly his fine orchestral pieces descriptive of southern France." Among his best-known pieces are the "Symphony on a French Mountain Air" for piano and orchestra (1886) and "Istar" (1896), a symphonic poem in the form of a set of variations in which the theme appears only at the end...
PICTURED: A 1910 autograph letter written out and signed by d'Indy on his Scholar Cantorum letterhead, addressed to an unnamed friend and regarding various musical matters.
