For more information see, http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/. Title A name given to the resource Reinhardt Promptbooks Description An account of the resource Who is Max Reinhardt? The celebrated Austrian theater director <a href="https://www.binghamton.edu/libraries/about/special-collections/research-and-collections/reinhardt/">Max Reinhardt</a>, recognized in America primarily for his elaborate productions of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Franz Werfel’s The Eternal Road, and Karl Vollmoeller’s The Miracle, was born in 1873 at Baden near Vienna, Austria and died in New York City in 1943. Reinhardt’s illustrious career takes on added significance because it coincides with a major shift in the evolution of the modern theater: the ascendancy of the director as the key figure in theatrical production. Reinhardt’s reputation in international theater history is secured by the leading role he played in this transformation, as well as by his innovative use of new theater technology and endless experimentation with theater spaces and locales, which together redefined traditional relationships between actor and audience toward a new participatory theater. What is a prompt book? The prompt book is a master copy of the production script and contains a wealth of instructions and information alongside the basic text of the play. As well as the actors’ lines, you will often see cues for music, movement, light, and many other aspects of stage business. It may also contain sketches of how a piece of staging is supposed to look, or which costume a character should wear in a scene. Why are his important? Reinhardt’s directorial prompt books reflect the ways in which he made plays by major playwrights, including Ibsen, Shakespeare and Wilder, his own. The prompt books contain notations denoting changes in the script, actor moves and technical cues, instructions on how sound, props and scenery were used, and stage drawings. They help us to reconstruct Reinhardt’s techniques and directions in productions.

Flocidia felt that these songs exempliﬁed “the ﬂuidity and harmonious character of the Italian language,” but suﬀered from “melodic decadence” and outmoded accompaniments. He took grmt creative license with several arrangements, shedding a romantic light upon the original melodies. Flosidia revered the original composers, though he felt they fell victim to the conventions of their times. He hoped for his versions of their songs to be seen as collaborations, not appropriations. Some latcr musicologists and critics called Floridia’s work extreme and ﬂorid, even “licentious.” Presently, most o f Floridia’s music has fallen by the wayside, due in large part to the disdain o f current editors and scholars. But Floridia said that he strove to please his own sensibilities, unconcemed with “musical erudition.” Though his songs are perhaps musicologically “incorrect,” we ﬁnd them very winning. Tonight’s selections progress from Floridia’s simpler style to his more infamous expansiveness. Se bel rio, with its broad melodic line, playful meter changes and quirky rhythmic energy, shows the “modem sense” o f melodic expressivity, “bold...rlaring spirit” with “a touch of humor” that Floridia admired in Rontani’s compositions. This song dedares that the world “smiles” by making beautiful things in nature, and yet the beauty o f all the smiling world cannot compare with the most gracious smile o f the speaker’s beloved. In Selve, voi c h e le speranze, the poet seeks solace in the woods, as though they are “rooms” full o f h ope. The melancholy yet hopeful melody is supported by a simple accompaniment that evokes both the quiet comfort o t “blessed hours” in the woods, and the speaker’s pensiveness. The speaker ol’A morire is Mary Stuart, Queen of Scots. Brought up in France. where her artistic and academic talents ﬂourished, Mary developed little political savvy. Her ﬁrst husband died, and her second and third betrayed her. Many Catholics believed Mary was the true sovereign of Elizabeth I’s throne. Mary became part of three plots to assassinate Elizabeth 1, her cousin, who in turn, put Mary in captivity for nearly twenty years until ﬁnally having her beheaded for treason. Reportedly, Mary made the most a t her unpnsosuncnt, and faced her excruciating death with great dignity. Here she laments that her crown can no longer protrct her, but she takes consolation in the fact that she lived for her ideals, despite her mistakes. Carissimi’s original cantata has a much longer text, and showcases ﬂorid vocalism over sparse sccosuparnmcut. Floridia expands upon a small excerpt of the original cantata. With a considerably slower tempo, and a weightier, more complex accompaniment, he delves deeper into this particular dramatic moment. Aprn il nun verde s e n o celebrates dawn, spring, and the hyacinth ﬂower (a symbol of both playfulness and sorrowful nostalgia). Floridia’s accompaniment creates musical tableaus to conjure the images of each verse: The ﬁrst tall chiming chords evoke the freshness o f spring ﬁelds and n ew ﬂowers, like the emerging rose. The second verse’s undulating arpeggios emulate the ﬂ ow o f water and breezes. The trllls and rolled chords of the third verse mimic birds singing and ﬂuttering. In the spirit o f the arranger, l have taken liberty in my interpretation o f these songs, imagining Mary Smart as the speaker of each piece – ﬁrst, as a young girl studying arts and letters, falling in love, then in captivity, wishing for freedom and hope, then facing death, and ﬁnally, unnsﬁgured after life into a spirit of the spring. Many of Robert Schumann’s songs were inspired by the love of his life, Clara Wieck Schumatul, a musiml genius in her own light. Her father, Friedrich Wieck, was Robert’s teacher, and though fond of his pupil, obiected strongly to Clara and Robert’s relationship. Wieck made their courtship as diﬀicult as possible and, in a lengthy legal battle, tried to prevent their marriage. Robert’s Opus 25, Mjyrthen, was a wedding gift for Clara, much o f it written while the couple awaited the court’s permission tor the marriage. The eponymous myrtles are bunches of star shaped ﬂowers that srgntu love and peace. Indeed, the songs are like a bouquet tor the bride, some dark, some light, some grand, some simple, all given with devotion. Some seem to be directly written from Robert to Clara, while others depict scenes ot‘ imagined characters singing of their beloveds. Probably Schumann’s facility for creating characters, as in his famous “Davidsbund” (a group o f imaginary music critics, all representative of diﬀerent sides of Schumann’s own opinions), his ability to envision himself partitioned into many diﬀerent people contributed to his creativity and to his madness. Yet in Myrthen it only helps to show the many colors of his great love for his wife. Our group is a microcosm of the cycle, following the order a t the opus. The ﬁrst and last pieces of the opus, the “Lieder der Braut” (“bride’s songs"), are the ﬁrst and last o f rhis group, beginning with Widmung, a “Dedication” t o the speakers love, his everything, “soul... heart... ecstasy... pant,” etc. A n example o f Schumann’s masterful ability to marry musical and textual poetry: when the speaker calls his love “a grave” for his “sorrows,” the music alliannonically transforms into a lower key, ready for the text that describes the beloved as “rest” and “peace.” At the very moment the speaker says that his beloved raises him above himself, the music rises back to the original key. Jemand is based on a Scots dialect Robert Burns poem.! It is the sort of song an ebullient young girl would sing about her secret “crush.” (Perhaps the character for this song was modeled after young Clara, who was sixteen when her romance with Robert began.) Her heart is, as Burns wrote, “sair,” o r sore as though wounded by cupid’s arrow: Gerhardt’s choice o f the German word “betriibt,” for “sair,” cmmotes cloudiness, storminess in the heart. The speaker declares her love for “someone” she cannot name, and revels in her secret. The erratic nature of the lovestruck heart manifests in quick changes in key, meter and tempo. Suddenly serious, the speaker sends good wishes to her love from afar, then, inst as suddenly, returns t o gleeful celebration o f h er secret. T h e sensual D i e L otosblume descnhes the lotus tlower and the moon as lovers who meet when night falls. The tender unfolding of the text mirrors the unfolding of the lotus in her lover’s light. The speaker o f Nier’nartdz (the companion to “Jemand”) is a gruﬀ and “jolly card” who deﬁes the world, not to be bothered, es ‘ y in his marriage. One imagines that Schumann felt especially close to the speaker of Aus den ballichcn Rosen, who sends good wishes to his love from afar, greetings like the “fragrance of roses” and “spring’s caress.” This poem, like “Jemand,” speaks of the heart’s storms, but those of a “joyless man” who hopes the darkness in his heart will not “touch” his beloved “ungainly.” Z u m schluss dislills the same basic chord structure and melodic ideas of “Widmuug.” If the opening of the opus is an ecstatic declaration of love, the conclusion is a solemn vow of love, the quiet devotion that lay a t the root o f all o f love’s other expressions. The speaker says that in this ﬂawed world he has “woven an imperfect wreath” for his bride, the best he can do, and promises that when he and she are received in heaven, love itself will weave them a “perfect wreath,” a sentiment made more poignant in retrospect, as Robert died forty years before Clara. Schumann wrote to his bride, “While 1 was composing [these songs] I was quite lost in thoughts o f you. If I were not engaged t o such a girl I could not write such music.” At an eady age, Francis Pmllenc was struck by the beauty o f German lieder, a genre that would have a profound inﬂuence upon his hundreds of mélodies. H e knew from his early teens that he was a composer, but his father discouraged him from pursuing a music career, insisting he focus o n academics. l’oulenc developed his musical talents o n his ow n until later i n his life, when he received formal training in conlposiﬁoth The “rough edges” (such as “wrongnote” dissonances) of his ‘ “My heart is sa i” 2“Naebody™ My heart is sair, 1 daurna tell, 1 hae a wife o’ m y a m. For the sake o’ somebody. I’l gie Cuckold to naebody. My heart ts saic for somebody, I could wake a wmtsr’r night, O h , h on! for somebody! 1 could range the world around For the sake o’ somebody. Ye powers that smile o n victuous love, Oh! sweetly smile on somebody; Ftsr ilka danger keep him free, And send me safe my somebody. Oh, hon! for somebody! l wad dae what wad l no?

I’l be merry and free, I’ll b e sad for nacbody; Naebody cates for me, l cate for usebody. �music, perhaps attributable in part to his selftaught style, brought criticism and admiration. Eady on, some critics suggested that Poulenc’s accessible, even catchy, music did not beﬁt a “serious composer,” as though accessibility and sophistication are mutually exclusive qualities! It seems, on the contrary, that some o f Poulenc’s greatest genius lay in his ability to mix complexity and intelligence with a vernacular, popular ﬂair. The content of Poulenc’s music was informed by a lite full o f contradictions. Poulenc was openly homosexual from his early twenties, yet he remained a pious Catholic, had romantic relationships with several women, and had a daughter. He spent much of his life touring, living in hotels. He greatly enioyed his work, especially his collaborations with singers, yet he was so lonely in this vagabond existence. All his life he suﬀered manicdepressive cycles. Appropnately, Poulenc’s music takes o n dramatically diﬀerent characters and atmospheres, portraying extreme moods, ranging between grave seriousness and terriﬁc ﬂights of whimsy. Tonight’ s group samples some of the many sides of this composer. Most of Poulenc’s songs, and all those on tonight’s program, were dedicated to singers and friends with whom he worked, written with particular voices and personalities in mind. The enigmatic text o f Audela concerns the act of “choosing in the hour of pleasure,” and says that, “to choose is not to betray,” in a romantic game so fragile it could be destroyed by “a breath.” These things considered, it is easy to think of Poulenc’s own sexual ambiguity, yet the piece approaches the topic in a saucy, lighthearted manner. A constant, speedy pulsation underlies a melody that runs into and out of the home key, evoking the lusty ﬂuctuations of the game described. The text suggests the vitalness of play, which we might surmise was especially immediate tor Poulenc, considering the intensity of his inner lite. The song was written to MarieBlanche de Polignac, who premiered many of Poulenc’s songs in her home, and in whom Poulenc conﬁded his diﬀiculty coping with soliulde and anxiety. Cimetiére (dedicated to Madeleine Vhita) is full of wistful romance. It speaks o f innocence, yet laments the loss of innocence. It is hopeful yet foreboding, slipping between major and minor keys. The ﬁrst motive the piano plays on its own is a hopeful, major, ascending phrase. This is restated at the end of the piece, in a strange minor, as if questioning its earlier optimism, with the added troubling presence of two dry staccato tones near the lowest end of the keyboard. Hétel (dedicated to Marthe Bosredon) contains similar contradictions. The ﬁrst line compares the hotel room to “a cage,” reiniu ' one of Poulenc’s depression. Yet, the song is to be sung “lazily,” and passes as ﬂeetingly and nonclnalanlly as a puﬀ of smoke from the speaker’s cigarette. The opening chords, radiant, vastly spaced blocks of tone, evoke the sun’s “arms” stretching through the window panes. The last chords, suddenly settled, suggest the pleasure of taking a muchdesired mouthful o f s moke to escape dreary mundanity and work. Perhaps the song allows us to glimpse a t private moment in the life of the composer. Les Chemins tie I’ A mour was written for Yvonne Printemps, a glamorous stadet o f operetta and ﬁlm, named for her perennially bright disposition. Printetups performed into her sixties, and lived a lavish, sexually adventurous life. The song is ﬁttingly optimistic despite some of its text, full of longing for the past, as in “Cimitiére.” It ﬁnds icy in nostalgia, even in sorrow, and celebrates the experience of love, even love that has “ﬂown.” Poulenc took special care to consider the intrinsic music of texts. H e would pore over a poem before setting it, and o n November 7, 1939, wrote “ I f I were a singing teacher I would insist on my pupils reading the poems attentively before working at songs.” Yet, “Above all,” he said, “d o not analyze my music Love it!” Charles E. Ives grew up in a middleclass Connecticut town. His father, George Ives, was Chades’ ﬁrst music teacher and mentor in composition, encouraging and inspiring Ives’ remarkably modem ear and sonic experimentalism, though he discouraged his son ﬁ'orn attempting to support himself solely with a career in music. In addition t o composing proliﬁcally, Ives became a successful insurance salesman. Though he produced revolutionary and now highly revered music, Ives gained no fame as a composer until after his death. He grew up loving the music o f ordinary people in church or in town hands, “They didn’t always play right and together and it was as good either way.” His music is sometimes deliberately unpolished. For a short time, Ives took singing lessons with a teacher who had him practice speaking the lyrics of songs, and then sing them according to spoken inﬂection. This greatly informed Ives’ voml writing, illuminating the ties between speech and melody. Ives’ songs incorporate modernism (on par with that of Stravinsky’s ilk) with the inﬂuence o f traditional American music (like that o f Stephen Foster). Ives merges the ﬁercely intellectual with the spontaneous and visceral, the sublime with the everyday. Slugging a Vampire is an abstruse iab at yellow iout’nalism, a great example o f Ives’ intensity and sense of humor. Its odd intervals and rhythms capture the raucous ﬁsttight it describes. Ives wrote that it should be performed “as fast and hard as possible.” Canon I is, indeed, a canon between voice and piano, with the melody starting in the voice. and echoed in the piano. The sprightly triple time, animated melody, and sharp contrasts of legato and staccato articulation show the speaker’s eﬀusive, eﬀulgent admiration for his beloved. The “unison chant,” Serenity, harkens back to some of Ives’ earliest compositional experiments, church music with untraditional accompaniments and voice leadings. Switching between meters and divisions o f the beat into twos and threes, the voice seems to ﬂoat freely over the steady piano part. The accompaniment rocks back and forth between two mysteriously serene tall tertiau chords, and on the ﬁnal phrases oﬂlie chant’s two sections becomes suddenly traditional, quoting a Samuel Sebastian Wesley hymn setting, until the last word of each section, where it returns to the twochord alternation. The vocal part of Tw o Little Flowers ﬂoats in a similarway. The text is set in four, while the phrases o f the piano drift in and out of the meter, achieving a dreamy interplay between singer and accompanist. The “two little ﬂowers” that surpass all the others are Ives’ daughter, Edith, and her friend Susanna. The poem is by Ives himself and his wife, Hammny, who wrote many song texts for her husband. The folksy verse of At Parting frames a more urgent, operatic middle section. In valedirtion, the speaker conﬁdes that the rose shegives to her beloved represents all herlove, that the toseis not iust a msqbutherveryhurl. ThcyAreTheteisaprime example of Ives’ rough, textdriven style. It is a wild patchwork quilt o f quotations from patriotic songs such as “Tenting Tonight” and “The Bartle Cry of Freedom,” that parodies patriotism while espousing a radically patriotic ideal oft’reedom. Ives said, it “is not a song for pretty voices—ifthe words are yelled out, regardless—so much the better.” He recorded himself singing the song, accompanying himself o n piano, indeed, yelling out the words, disregarding many notes and rhythms he so speciﬁcally notated, intrriecting extemporaneous exclamations. Fortyeight years betore Ives came into the world, Stephen Foster was born to another middleclass American family, in Lawrenceville, Pennsylvania (now part of Pittsburgh). Though Foster was always musically inclined, his father pressured him to go into a more ﬁnancially stable career. Stephen attended, detested, and dropped out of several schools before entering the family business. He eventually received formal training in composition. Ultimately deciding to devote his life entirely to music, he composed over 200 published songs over the course of about 20 years, many of which are now mistaken for folk songs. Foster’s idiom, so quintessentially American, brilliantly simple and earnest, had a profound inﬂuence o n later American composers like Ives, Copland and Rorem. Foster also paved the way for the likes of the Guthsies, Dylan and Baez, with socially conscious, folkstyle songs like, “Hard Times Come Again N o More,” Perhaps a subtler example o f the same category, Ahl May the Red Rose Live Alwayl meditates upon beauty and innocence, lamenting their ephemerality and vulnerability, and wishing they could endure. It seems an especially poignant piece considering the cotltposer’s short, tragic life: Foster had a tumultuous, unhappy marriage and became an alcoholic (like his father), falling deep into debt, his success waning, though he continued composing all his life. He died in a New York City boarding house, possessing less than forty cents, and a scrap o f paper on which he had written, “Dear friends and gentle hearts” and nothing more. We’ll end in happier commemoration o f Foster’s great spirit with The Camptown Races, one of many songs he wrote for minstrel singers. Though one might never guess it, Fosters lofty aim in such songs was to gain sympathy for slaves, endeavoring to give them less crass lyrics than traditionally written for them, and music that would move the audience to compassion, even through humor. While “The Camptown Races” was originally written in a minstrel dialect (as printed in the Texts and Translations section), we’ll perform it i n standard contemporary English. As I studied the music o f tonight’s program, I was struck by the diﬀerent forms o f subversion contained in each group: Floridia’s assumption of the right to collaborate with dead composers, Schumann’s ode to his forbidden love, Poulenc’s deﬁance against categorization, Ives’ simultaneous homage to and upending o f established musical forms and associations, Foster’s hope to transcend societal “givens” through the use of popular music. I also became interested in the rose as a gni at least once in each group, signifying similar ideas throughout the recurrent motif, aj program, especially cycles of love, hope, loss and rebirth. As I selected this repertory it seemed to emerge as the emblem of the evening. I also like the idea of giving songs, like roses, to an audience as a simple yet deeply felt gesture of love.

Stephen Sondheim (b. 1930) Green Finch and Linnet Bird (from Sweeney Todd) Take Me to the World (from Evening Primrose) On the Steps of the Palace (from Into the Woods) �Stefano Donaudy aspired to be a great opera composer, finding popular success in the genre from ·the age of 14. His composition teacher said he had an "effortless melodic spirit." Donaudy's operas did not endure at a time when the works of Verdi and Puccini dominated the operatic landscape, but his Arie di Stile Antico are now quite popular for recitalists. These pieces are in the traditional vein for which Donaudy is best known. Biographical material on the composer is strangely limited. We can only guess at the origins of the passionate intensity of his songs (giving some credit to Donaudy's Sicilian roots!), but, for whatever reason, they convey a tells of budding love l great generosity of heart and soul. Venuto è l'Aprile between mythical nymphs and wood spirits. The voice begins alone, followed by the piano in the same sprightly melody, and they seem to chase each other and dance, like the song's characters. Bittersweetly, Luoghi sereni e cari recalls youth and the pain of a first heartbreak. The accompaniment is at times wistful and music-box-like, and at other times swelling with more mature colors. A deeper, unresolved loss is mourned in the operatic Quando ti rivedro. The speaker asks when she will see her unfaithful lover again, but the music tells us that she knows he will not return. Ending the set with lighter fare, Ognun ripicchia e nicchia tells the familiar story of a promising date gone awry. When Franz Schubert was eight, he studied with organist Michael Holzer, who reportedly said, with tears in his eyes, ''Whenever I wished to impart something new to him, he always knew it already." Schubert is perhaps the Giant of German lieder. With astonishing speed he wrote hundreds of songs in addition to a myriad of other compositions in his short life. Everything in the gamut of emotional experience has probably been expressed in a Schubert song. Additionally, these musical gems evoke images and sensations of water, breezes, sunset, and the like. Schubert's idealism comes through in music that elevates the human experience. "The important elements of Schubert's character were a love of truth, and a marked hatred of jealousy, tenderness with firmness, sincerity and affection ... " These qualities are exemplified in An die Musik. This song is like a duet between the voice and the piano's melodic bass-line. Schubert wrote the last two songs in this set while struggling with illness and depression. Equivocation between minor and major in Auf dem Wasser zu singen expresses awe, sadness and ultimately joy in the face of life's ephemeral beauty and the speaker's own mortality. The speaker of Friihlingsglaube comforts her own "poor heart" and welcomes the promise of spring heralded by "gentle breezes." One supposes that the composition of such songs must have helped Schubert cope with his illness. After he died, his tomb was given Grillparzer's famous epitaph: "The art of music has entombed here a rich treasure but even fairer hopes." �Though Fanny Mendelssohn-Hensel displayed prodigious talent early on, her family strongly discouraged her pursuit of a musical career. She transferred much of her creative energy into advising her brother, Felix. Nonetheless, she composed prolifically, developing a distinct musical voice. In 1846, she summoned the courage to publish, announcing it in an apologetic letter to her brother, "I hope you won't think badly of me ... if the pieces are well liked and I receive additional offers ... it will be a great stimulus to me, something I've always needed in order to create ... " She died soon after. Today, the majority of her works remain in family archives, unavailable to performers and listeners. These three songs represent some of her great emotional range, and ability to create richness through relatively simple, clean melodies with novel twists. An ironic major-minor conflict, and rhythmically crowded phrases embody the broken-hearted turmoil of Verlust. Sehnsucht begins on a long note that fades away like the distant "dance tune" it describes. Its melody moves primarily in descending scales, but at times rises and holds our expectation, mirroring the speaker's unfed yearning. Evoking the brilliance of nineteenth century Italian opera, ltalien soars, dance-like, in an outburst of pure, triumphant joy. About a month before Hensel died, she wrote of such bliss in her diary. Perhaps beginning to share her work with the world gave her a new freedom and lightness of heart. "Yesterday the first breath of spring was in the air. It has been a long winter ... indeed a winter full of suffering ... My inmost heart is ... full of thankfulness.... I am quite overcome with my own happiness." Carrie Jacobs-Bond was a piano prodigy, but did not pursue music professionally until after the death of her second husband, when she lost nearly everything. She fought poverty for years, .providing for herself and her son by writing, selling and performing songs "unpretentious as a wild rose." She suffered stage fright, and was criticized for being "plain and angular." An untrained vocalist, she courageously sang and played her songs on her own at first because she could not find anyone else to do it. Ultimately she became quite famous and successful for her music and earnest performances. Upon hearing her most famous song, At the End of a Perfect Day, in concert, a Viennese composer visiting the United States stood up, thinking it was the national anthem, so revered and beloved it was. It is easy to imagine Jacobs-Bond delivering these pearls of wisdom, the HalfMinute Songs. They are infused with her uprightness, forthrightness, and most of all, her consciousness that in making music, she was giving a muchneeded gift: "I wonder what the world would be like if there were nobody to do the simple things!" Bond wrote, "I wonder how folks would get along without snappers, and hooks and eyes, and pins. Nothing could be much commoner than they are, but they fill a very much-needed place. You see, lots of folks can get along without a point lace collar, but I should hate to see folks try to get along without the other commodities I've spoken of. And sometimes songs (simple songs) like pins keep folks together." �Gabriel Fauré was reportedly very charming and seductive, like so many of his melodies. He was quite busy as a teacher and organist, and could not devote the majority of his time to composition. Fauré's life spanned the musical developments of greats like Berlioz, Berg, and Shostakovich, and he was educated with a wide range of musical voices from an early age, giving him an extensive palette. The musical language he created out of all that he absorbed was one of the most modern of its time. Mandoline is an excellent example. Its melody seems to begin simply, as does the picture of the archetypal lovers it describes, but falls into a colorful and amorous reverie, destabilizing our sense of the key. Au bard de l'eau describes the infinite richness of the moments two people can share when they live and love in the present. Les berceaux juxtaposes the rocking of large ships in a harbor with the rocking of cradles. Both are represented in the music: long phrases stretch over a shorter constant rocking figure in the piano's right hand. The set closes with the breathless Chanson d'amour. In it, the poet ecstatically enumerates everything he loves about his fiery lover, from head to feet. One of our greatest living composers, Stephen Sondheim is a lover of words, internal process, and impeccability of speech and expression. Through his songs we enter vast emotional and intellectual landscapes, each rich and unique; but no matter how smart, novel, or dark, they are simply human at the core. Sondheim trained with Oscar Hammerstein, and followed in his footsteps to earn a place in the Pantheon of musical theatre composers. In Sondheim's work one hears the influence of opera (Puccini in his crowd scenes) and musical theatre (Hammerstein in his love songs). Additionally, there is an incredibly current, vernacular and bitingly intellectual use of language. The composer has an uncanny ability to tap into a character's soul and mind, often through the musicality of natural speech patterns: An extended rest may be a moment of clarity, a dotted rhythm a hesitation, and so on. These three songs are full of such telling moments. They present three young women coming of age, seeking freedom. Johanna, from Sweeney Todd, is in the care of an oppressive and lascivious ward, kept in her room all day, listening to the songs of the caged birds outside her window. She sings back to them in Green Finch and Linnet Bird Johanna sings a tuneful and light melody, yet a persistent, somewhat dissonant, beat in the piano belies her growing dissatisfaction. The second selection is from an episode of ABC's "Studio 67 ," Evening Primrose, that tells the story of a group of people who have decided to separate from society by living in a department store. Ellen was brought to the store by her mother when she was very young, and has always wished to leave. When a disillusioned poet comes to stay in the store, Ellen and he fall in love. She pleads him to escape with her in Take Me to the World The melody evokes classic musical theatre, but the accompaniment is ominous and harmonically "crunchy." The last character is Cinderella, from Into the Woods, who tells how she really came to leave her glass slipper On the Steps of the Palace. �In selecting this program, I noticed that the pieces I was drawn to shared common threads such as nature, dance, water, flowers, birds, positive existentialism, idyllic settings and awakenings. Such themes and motifs are hardly surprising to find in art songs and musical theatre pieces. However, I want to highlight them in celebration of Spring and all it represents. If I titled this evening, I might borrow from Schubert and Uhland and call it Frühlingsglaube (Spring-Faith). I wish you all the best in the new season and forward ...

Venuto è l' Aprile Text: Alberto Donaudy (1880-1941) April has come Venuto è l'Aprile tessendo ghirlande, E ninfee silvani sulprato raunando. A ccordan gli ontani i loro strumenti E ai primi concenti de/ vento Fra i rami comincia la danza. Prima un fauno s'avanza... La sua ninja lo mira... S ospira... E volano insiem! April has come, weaving garlands, And nymphs and sylvans are gathering on the meadow. The alder trees are tuning their instruments And at the first harmony of the wind Among the branches, the dance begins. First a faun advances .. . His nymph looks at him .. . Sighs .. . And they fly away together! Folleggian le coppie tra ifonti e le rive, E poi nelle selve scompaion furtive ... Ma Clori, che intanto gelosa è di Nice, Aspetta infelicee so/a, nelpianto, Che cessi la danza. The couples frolic among the fountains and streams, And then into the forest disappear furtively . .. But Clori, who meanwhile is jealous of Nice, Waits unhappily and alone, in tears, For the dance to stop. Maun pastore s'avanza... E già Clori lo mira... S ospira... E volano insiem! But a shepherd advances . . . And Clori looks at him .. . Sighs . .. And they fly away together! Luoghi sereni e cari Text: Alberto Donaudy Places serene and dear Luoghi sereni e cari, io vi ritrovo Quali ai bei dì lasciai digiovinezza! Gli stessi amati aspetti Ovunque iipasso io muovo... Sol non mi punge ancor Che l'amarezza dei mesti giorni In cui i tormenti d'un triste inganno Insegnato m'hanno pei primicosa Al mondo è dolor! Places serene and dear, I find you again Just as beautiful as I left you in the days of my youth! The same beloved sights Wherever I tum my step ... Only now do I not sting with The bitterness of mournful days During which the torments of a sad deception Taught me for the first time what In the world is griefl Lungi da voi fuggitoal/or Cercai di trovar pace al mio tradito core. Andaifin oltre mare, ed altre donne amai... Ma nu/la può /enire quel do/ore Ch'è piaga viva in ogni core d'amante Che nell'amore aveva ugualfade Che pregando ii Signor! Having fled far from you, then Trying to find peace for my betrayed heart. I went beyond the sea, and loved other women ... But nothing can lessen that pain Which is a living wound in every lover's heart Who had as much faith in love As in praying to the Lord! �Quando ti rivedrò Text: Alberto Donaudy When shall I see you again Quando ti rivedrò, Infida amante che mifosti si cara? T ante !agrime ho piante Or che a/trui ci separa, Che temo sia fuggita ogni gioia Per sempre di mia vita. Eppur più mi dispero, Più ritorno a sperare. Più t'odio ne/pensiero, E più ancora l'anima mia ti torna ad amar. When shall I see you again, Unfaithful lover who was so dear to me? So many tears have I wept Now that another separates us, That I fear every joy will be gone Forever from my life. And yet the more I despair, The more I return to hoping. The more I despise you in my thoughts, Then once again my soul turns to loving you. Quando ti rivedrò, Infida amante che mifosti cara cosi? When will I see you again, Unfaithful lover who was dear to me like that? Ognun ripicchia e nicchia Text: Alberto Donaudy Ognun ripicchia e nicchia ognor Su un caso strano a dir. Ma perchè, ma cos'è, Che tanto amor dovea cosifinir? Orio voglio la mia storia raccontar T anto bujfa ell'è: Me ne givo un di con Monna Lapa insiem, Che si cara m'era al cor, Peri campi a raccoglier.ftor. .. Ma la storia comincia qui. Everyone repeats and hesitates each time Over a case strange to tell. But why, but how is it, That so much love must end this way? Now I want to tell my story So funny it is: I was walking one day with my lady Lapa, Who was so dear to my heart, Through the fields to pick flowers ... But the story begins here. U'! cos'è quel ch'io veggo là? Un grillo o un rusignuol? Più be! ve'! Più be! ve'! La mia beltà sedette su un poggiuol. Lei sperava di poter cosi Coder ii divin cantor, Ma al trillar de/ grillo E al pronto suo balzar Diede un grido, e nelfuggir, Sù ove prima seggea cascò.... E la storia.ftnisce Ii. Ooh! What is that I see there? A cricket or a nightingale? Look- more beautiful! Look- more beautiful! My beauty sat on a little hill. That way she hoped to be able To enjoy the divine singer, But at the trill of the cricket And his quick leap She gave a shriek, and as she fled, I fell on the place where she had sat, And the story ends there . �II. An die Musik Text: Franz von Schober (1797-1828) Du ho/de Kunst, in wievielgrauen Stunden, Wo mich des Lebens wilder Kreis umstrickt, Hast du mein Herz zu warmer Lieb' entzunden, Hast mich in eine beßre Welt entrückt! To Music Oft hat ein Seufzer, deiner Harf'entjlossen, Bin süßer, heiliger Akkord von dir Den Himmel beßrer Zeiten mir erschlossen, Du ho/de Kunst, ich danke dir dafür! Often has a sigh, flowing from your harp, A sweet, holy chord from you Unlocked the heaven of better times for me, You dear art, I thank you for that! Auf dem Wasser zu singen Text: Graf zu Stollberg (17 48-1821) To be sung on the water Mitten im S chimmer der spiegelnden Wellen Gleitet, wie S chwäne, der wankende Kahn; Ach, auf der Freude sanjtschimmernden Wellen Gleitet die S eele dahin wie der Kahn; Denn von dem Himmel herab auj die Weflen Tanzet das Abendrot rund um den Kahn. Amid the shimmer of the mirroring waves Glides, as swans do, the wobbling little boat; Ah, on joy's soft-shimmering waves, Glides the soul there like the boat; Then from the heavens down on the waves Dances the evening's red glow around the boat, Ober den Wipftln des westlichen Haines Winket uns.freund!ich der rötliche Schein; Unter den Zweigen des ostlichen Haines Säuselt der Kalmus im rötlichen Schein; Freude des Himme!s und Ruhe des Haines Atmet die Seel im erriitenden Schein. Over the treetops of the westerly wood The red glow winks to us friendily, Under the boughs of the easterly wood Rustle the reeds in the reddish shine; Joy of the heavens and peace of the woods Breathes the soul, in the reddening shine. Ach, es entschwindet mit tauigem Flügel Mir auf den wiegenden Wellen die Zeit. Morgen entschwinde mit schimmerndem Flügel Wieder wie gestern und heute die Zeit, Bis ich auf höherem strah!enden Flügel Seiber entschwinde der wechselnden Zeit. Ah, with dewy wings, time vanishes From me, on the rocking waves. Tomorrow, time flies on shimmering wings, Again, like yesterday and today, Until I, on higher sparkling wings Myself will vanish in the changing time. Friihlingsglaube Text: Ludwig Uhland (1787-1862) Spring-faith Die linden Lüfte sind erwacht, Sie säuseln und wehen Tag unt Nacht, Sie scha.ffen an a/fen Enden. Duft, o neuer Klang! 0 frischer Nun, armes Herze, sei nicht Bang! Nun muss such al/es, al/es wenden. The gentle breezes are awake, They rustle and waft day and night, They are at work everywhere. 0 fresh scent, o new sound! Now, poor heart, be not afraid! Now must everything, everything change. Die Weft wird schöner mitjedem Tag, Man weiss nicht, was noch werden mag, Das Blühen will nicht enden; Es blüht das ftrnste, tieftte ta!, Nun, armes Herz, vergiss der Qua!! Nun muss sich al/es, alles wenden. The world grows lovelier with every day, One does not know what yet may come to be, The flowering will not end; The farthest, deepest valley blooms, Now, poor heart, forget your pain! Now must everything, everything change. III. Verlust Text Heinrich Heine (1787-1856) Loss Und wüßten's die Blumen, die kfeinen, Wie tief verwundet mein Herz, Sie wßrden mit mir weinen, Zu heilen meinen Schmerz. And if they knew, the flowers, the little ones, How deeply wounded my heart is, They would weep with me, To heal my pain. You dear art, in how many gray hours, Where I was ensnared in life's wild circle, Have you kindled warm love in my heart, Have you moved me to a better world! �Und wüßten's die Nachtigallen, Wie ich so traurig und krank, Sie ließen fröhlich erschallen Erquickenden Gesang. And if the nightingales knew, How I am so sad and sick, They would happily let ring out Refreshing song. Und wüßten sie mein Wehe, Die goldnen Sternelein, Sie kämen aus ihrer Höhe, Und sprächen Trost mir ein. And if they knew my pain, The golden little stars, They would come from their height, And speak consolation to me. Die a/le können's nicht wissen, Nur Einer kennt meinen Schmerz; Er hatja selbst zerrissen, Zerrissen mir das Herz. They all cannot know it, Only one knows my pain; He has, yes, himself ripped apart, Ripped apart my heart. Sehnsucht Text: Johann Gustav Droysen (1809-1884) Longing Fern undferner schallt der Reigen. Wohl mir! um mich her ist S chweigen a Flur. Aufder Zu dem vol/en Herzen nur Will nicht Ruh' sich neigen. Far and farther sounds the round dance. Well to me! around me here is silence On the land. Only to my full heart Will rest not come. Horeb! die Nacht schwebt durch die Riiume. Ihr Gewand durchrauscht die Bäume Lispelnd leis'. Ach, so schweifen liebeheiß Meine Wiinsch' und Träume. Hark! The night soars through the space. I ts robe rushes through the trees Murmuring softly Ah, thus roam, love-hot, My wishes and dreams. Italien Text: Franz Grillparzer (1791-1872) Italy Schöner und schöner schmiickt sich der Plan, S chmeichelnde Lüfte wehen mich an! Fort aus der Prosa Lasten und Müh' Zich' ich zum Lande der Poesie. Fairer and fairer the plain decks itself, As coaxing breezes blow me along! Away from the burden and trouble of prose Drawing me toward the land of poetry. Gold'ner die Sonne, blauer die Luft, Grüner die Grüne, würz'ger der Duft! Dort an dem Maishalm, schwellend von Saft, Sträubt sich der Aloe störrische Kraft; More golden the sun, bluer the air, Greener the green, more fragrant the scent! There by the cornstalk, swelling with sap, Struggles the aloe's obstinate strength; Olbaum, Cypresse, blond du, du braun, Nickt ihr wie zjerliche, grüßende Frau'n? Was glänzt im Laube,funkelnd wie Gold? Hal Pomeranze, birgst du dich hold? Olive tree, cypress, one blond, and one brown, Don't you nod like dainty, greeting ladies? What gleams in the foliage, sparkling like gold? Ah! Oranges, are you lovelies hiding there? Trotz'ger Poseidon, wärest du dies, Der unten scherzt und murmelt so süß? Und dies, halb Wiese, halbAther zu schau'n, Es wär des Meeres furchtbares Grau'n? Defiant Poseidon, were you the same one, Who below now jokes and murmurs so sweetly? And this, half meadow, half ether, it seems, Was the sea's fearsome horror? Hier will ich wohnen, Göttliche du: Bringst du, Parthenope, Wogen zur Ruh'? Nun denn versuch' es, Eden der Lust, Eb'ne die Wogen auch dieser Brust. Here I would live! Godlike one: Can you Parthenope bring the waves to rest? Now then, try it, Eden of Joy, And ease also, the waves in this breast. �V. Mandoline Text: Paul Verlaine (1844-1896) Les donneurs de sérénades Et !es belles écouteuses Echangent des propos fades Sous !es ramures chanteuses. The givers of serenades And the lovely listeners Exchange vapid words Under the singing branches. C'est Tircis et c'est Aminte, Et c'est l'éternel Clitandre, Et c'est Damis qui pour mainte Cruelle [fait]* maint vers tendre. There's Thyrsis and there's Amyntas, And there's the eternal Clytander, And there's Damis who, for many a Cruel woman, wrote many a tender verse. Leurs courtes vestes de soie, Leurs longues robes àqueues, Leur élégance, leurJoie Et leurs molles ombres bleues Their short coats of silk, Their long dresses with trains, Their elegance, their joy And their soft blue shadows Tourbillonent dans l'extase D'une lune rose et grise, Et la mandolineJase Parmi !es frissons de brise. Whirl in the ecstasy Of a moon pink and grey, And the mandoline prattles Among the shivers of the breeze. *originally "fit" Au bord de l'eau Text: Sully-Prudhomme (1839-1907) S 'asseoir taus deux au bard du flat qui passe, Le voirpasser; Taus deux, s'ilglisse un nuage en l'espace, Le voir glisser; À /'horizon s'ilfume un toit de chaume, Le voirfumer; Aux alentours si quelqueJleur embaume, S 'en embaumer; At the edge of the water Entendre au pied du saule ou l'eau murmure L 'eau murmurer; Ne pas sentir tant que ce rêve dure, Le temps durer; To hear, at the foot of the willow where the water murmurs, the water murmuring; Not to feel, as long as this dream lasts, The passage of time; Mais, n 'apportent de passion profonde, Qu 'à s 'adorer, Sans nu! souci des querelles du monde, Les ignorer; But, bringing no deep passion, Except to adore one another, With no worry of the world's quarrels, To ignore them; Et seul taus deux devant tout ce qui lasse, Sans se lasser, S entir !'amour devant tout ce qui passé, Ne point passer! And alone, us two, before all that causes weariness, Without wearing, To feel love, faced with all things that pass away, Not passing away! To sit, us two, at the edge of the stream that passes, To watch it pass; Us two, if a cloud glides in the sky, To watch it glide; On the horizon, if a thatched roof smokes, To watch it smoke; Around us, if a flower imbues the air, To be imbued; �Les berceaux Text: Sully Prudhomme The cradles Le long du quai, !es grands vaisseaux, Que la houle incline en silence, Ne prennent pas garde aux berceaux, Que la main des.femmes balance. All along the port, the big vessels, · That the swell sways in silence, Pay no regard to the cradles That the hands of women rock.

But it will come, the day of goodbyes, As it is necessary that women weep, And that curious men Attempt the horizons that lure them! Et ce jour-là !es grands vaisseaux, Fuyant le port qui diminue, Sentent leur masse retenue Par l•âmedes lointains berceaux. And that day, the big vessels, Fleeing the vanishing port, Feel their bulk held back By the soul of the distant cradles.

HARPUR THEATER �PROGRAM Sinfonietta, Op. 1 Poco presto ed agitato Variations : Andante lento Tarantella: Presto vivace B. Britten (1913 ) The Sinfonietta was written in 1932 and is the earliest published composition by England’s leading composer. It is a rather complex wor based on short the matic motives which are heard in the olpening measures and then ref erred to i n various contexts throughout the piece. his resourceful manipulation of tiny me lodic cells continues in the slow movement, titled “Variations. ' A short viola pas sage leads into the fast Tarantella, a moto perpetwo, in which the various mo tives of the whole work are summarized. Piano Concerto in Cma jor K. 467 Allegro maestoso . W . A. Mozart (numu) Andante Allegro vivace assai Finale; Presto This symphony is one of six written by Hadyn on a commission from a Parisian concert organization. It was nicknamed La Reine because Marie Antoi nette is said to have ressed a special fondness for it. In its second movement une Lisette.” The lym Haydn makes use of m a c h folk song, “La Gentille et Je phon is a cheerful work combining references to popular styles, humor, and classical grace with the most sophisticated technical writing. Program notes by Harry Lmeo’ la MEMBERS OF THE ORCHESTR A Violins : Ralph Wade Marianne Wallenberg Mozart devoted much eﬀort to his twenty piano concerti and they represen for many critics, the highest achievement amon his instrumental works. Th e Major Concerto was completed in March 1785. The structure of the work is quite complex, including motivic relations between the movements. The ﬁrst move ment is introduced by a rather solemn, marchlike theme in the orchestra, a n atmosphere which soon gives way to the prevailing brilliance of the piano solo. In the slow movement, one of the most famous in the entire piano concert literature, a beautiful and haunting melody is heard in a wide range of keys and colors. A jovial mood returns in the ﬁnale, a rondo based on a chromatic theme. IN TERMISSION Capriccio for Piano and String Orchestra op. 49 . Allegro con fuoco Vivace scherzando Adagio ; Allegro molto . R. Casadesus (1899 ) In addition to a long and distinguished career as a pianist, Robert Casadesus has composed a number of attractive works for piano. As its title implies, the Cappriccio, although for piano and orchestra, is a lighter. work than a formal concerto. It was written in 1953 in Paris and ﬁrst performed in New York in 1954. The style has elements of both classic and modern and in a sense is a French counterpart of the neoclassic piano music of Prokoﬁef. .The. four movements have traditional structures and display a brilliant pianistic idiom. The scherzo, with its emphasis on high register writing for the piano and eﬀective cross rh ythms between piano and orchestra, is especially interesting. .. J.

Title A name given to the resource Binghamton Community Poets' Big Horror Reading Series Subject The topic of the resource American poetry -- 20th century; Oral interpretation of poetry Description An account of the resource The Binghamton Community Poets were founded in 1983 by native Binghamton poet, educator, and Harpur College alum Richard Martin. That year he started the The Big Horror Reading Series at a local coffee house. People associated with the series changed throughout the years but always included local writers who were dedicated to the idea of creating a space where literary art could flourish. For fourteen years, readings took place at various venues around the Triple Cities featuring nationally and internationally known writers while continuing to provide “open mike” time for local community writers and sometimes musicians. The series received funding from the New York State Council on the Arts, the Broome County Arts Council, and Poets and Writers, Inc., as well as public donations. Many of the readings between 1987 and 1996 were videotaped. Some of the writers who are featured on the videotapes include (in alphabetical order) Tish Benson, Charles Bernstein, Barney Bush, Wally Butts, Adrian Clarke, Suzanne Cleary, Robert Creeley, Joel Dailey, Jim Daniels, Jack Dann, Diane di Prima, Safiya Henderson-Holmes, Lance Henson, Bob Holman, Pierre Joris, Dave Kelly, Sylvia Kelly, Bill Kemmett, Peter Kidd, Dorianne Laux, Ed Ochester, Kate Rushin, Pamela Sargent, Patricia Smith, Lloyd Van Brunt. Also featured are former and current members of the Binghamton University faculty (in alphabetical order): David Bartine, Martin Bidney, Milton Kessler, Bob Mooney, Liz Rosenberg, Jerome Rothenberg, John Vernon. People associated with the series at one time or another (in alphabetical order): Ken Bovee, Alexis Cacyuk, Jerry Caswell, Tom Costello, Gerry Crinnin, Terry Day, Paul Dean, Zack Grabosky, Tom Haines, Connie Head, Michael Kelly, Tom Kolpakas, Richard Martin, Kate McQueen, John Miller, Bern Mulligan, Doug Paugh, Susan Prezzano, Phil Sweeney, Mike Tarcha. Venues for recorded readings (in chronological order): Swat Sullivan’s Hotel*, Benlin’s, Mad Murphy’s, The Tazmanian Embassy, The Amsterdam, Java Joe’s, Amp’s. The collection also <a href="https://omeka.binghamton.edu/omeka/collections/show/31">includes twelve excerpted poems</a> that serve as an introduction. They are linked not only to the full individual readings in Rosetta but also to the catalog records for the books in which they are published. This creates a unique convergence experience, as the catalog record “comes alive” and users can see the writer and hear a poem from the book before they take it off the shelf to read. Digitization and DVD Production After the series ended in 1996, the videotapes sat in boxes for ten years. In 2006, since they were most likely degrading and losing both video and audio fidelity, a Memorandum of Understanding between the BCP and the Libraries was agreed on and the process of converting the videotapes to DVD-quality MPEG files for preservation and access purposes was begun. Many of them had glitches and dead spots and several others were not originals but copies, further adding to loss of video and audio fidelity. After the conversion, both the video and audio quality were enhanced to a degree from what was on the tapes.  Phase Two involved producing individual DVDs from the MPEG files. The files were literally “raw”: they started when the camera was turned on and continued without interruption until it was turned off, which meant there was often video of silent microphones and audio of irrelevant crowd noises and conversations. Editing these out made the DVDs much better than the raw files. Preservation and Expanded Access Due to copyright restrictions, the DVDs have been housed in Special Collections and had to be viewed there. This has definitely curtailed their usage. However, a recent development in Rosetta, our digital preservation system, has allowed us to offer a new form of access. Rosetta added a built-in video viewer, which allows the videos to be both preserved and streamed at the same time. In order to accomplish this, the DVDs had to be converted to MP4s to be compatible with the new viewer. The streaming versions are copies of the DVDs, which is why they contain menus and chapters which are not functional but are continuous play. The streaming versions will allow more users to be able to view and listen to this diverse, wide-ranging collection of readings. (N.B.: They are only accessible on campus or via campus VPN.) *The image on the item records is the iconic Swat Sullivan's Hotel, which was located on Binghamton's South Side. Swat's was the venue for the earliest readings in the video collection. The building was torn down in 1990.

For more information see, http://dublincore.org/documents/dces/. Title A name given to the resource Reinhardt Promptbooks Description An account of the resource Who is Max Reinhardt? The celebrated Austrian theater director <a href="https://www.binghamton.edu/libraries/about/special-collections/research-and-collections/reinhardt/">Max Reinhardt</a>, recognized in America primarily for his elaborate productions of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Franz Werfel’s The Eternal Road, and Karl Vollmoeller’s The Miracle, was born in 1873 at Baden near Vienna, Austria and died in New York City in 1943. Reinhardt’s illustrious career takes on added significance because it coincides with a major shift in the evolution of the modern theater: the ascendancy of the director as the key figure in theatrical production. Reinhardt’s reputation in international theater history is secured by the leading role he played in this transformation, as well as by his innovative use of new theater technology and endless experimentation with theater spaces and locales, which together redefined traditional relationships between actor and audience toward a new participatory theater. What is a prompt book? The prompt book is a master copy of the production script and contains a wealth of instructions and information alongside the basic text of the play. As well as the actors’ lines, you will often see cues for music, movement, light, and many other aspects of stage business. It may also contain sketches of how a piece of staging is supposed to look, or which costume a character should wear in a scene. Why are his important? Reinhardt’s directorial prompt books reflect the ways in which he made plays by major playwrights, including Ibsen, Shakespeare and Wilder, his own. The prompt books contain notations denoting changes in the script, actor moves and technical cues, instructions on how sound, props and scenery were used, and stage drawings. They help us to reconstruct Reinhardt’s techniques and directions in productions.
