�About the Music
Bedrich Smetana is a heroic ﬁgure in Czech culture, and even today is
seen as the founder of a Czech national school of music composition. Vitava
(1874) is the second symphonic poem in M4 Vlast, and portrays the river, called
the Moldau by German­speaking Czechs such as Smetana, which rises in the
forest and ﬂows through the Bohemian countryside and the city of Prague before
joining the River Elbe. For Smetana, the course of the river provided a ready­
made musical structure; Vltava is a sort of rondo, with the ﬂowing theme of the
river recurring in diﬀerent forms between colorful episodes depicting Bohemian
life and folklore along the riverside. Two brooks, portrayed on two ﬂutes, form
the sources of the river; these ﬂow into the main stream of the river itself, the
surging string melody which Smetana is said to have derived from a Swedish
folk­song but which now sounds quintessentially Czech. Hunting horns are
heard in the forests, before the river ﬂows past a rustic wedding celebration
where the guests are dancing a polka. Smetana led the way (here and in his
String Quartet “From my Life") in introducing this light­hearted dance to
symphonic music. The next episode portrays moonlight shimmering on the river
in magical orchestral colors, and Smetana evokes the legend of the Rusalkas, the
water nymphs who feature prominently in Slav folklore and would later form the
subject of Dvordk’s best­known opera. The music accelerates and grows
agitated as the river crashes over the Rapids of St. John, above Prague, and
ﬁnally sweeps through the Czech capital itself. The majestic chorale­theme of
Vysehrad, the great rock­fortress that is the symbol of the Czech nation, towers
over the closing bars, as the Vltava ﬂows unstoppably onwards to the Elbe.
R.G. Bratby 2001
Mozart’s return from Paris in 1779 opened a diﬀicult period in the
composer’s life. Following hard upon the death of Mozart’s mother and his
broken romance with Aloisia Weber, Mozart’s last two years working for the
Archbishop of Salzburg were, on the whole, unhappy ones. Nonetheless, his
need to express his own inner exuberance found outlet in a number of
surprisingly bright compositions including this evening’s concerto.
The E­ﬂat concerto K. 365 was written in early 1779 and inﬂuenced by
the splendid sinfonia concertante  K. 364 for violin and viola that had been
written for his trip to Mannheim. The concerto, designed in part to showcase
Mozart’s sister Nannerl (she performed the ﬁrst part), shows a strong holdover
of Mannheim character in its sturdy orchestral tuttis. Entering afterlan

introductory tutti, the solo parts are the main show here, quite conversational
and competitive in a friendly spirit of virtuosic one­upsmanship. Mozart uses the

pianos together only sparingly, perhaps realizing their percussive potential, but
several passages suggest mechanical musical instruments and, in the minor keys,
deeper interior passions. The middle movement in B­ﬂat suggests a relaxed
pastorale , while the ﬁnale runs ahead with all the enthusiasm of youth. Mozart
interpolates a large section in c­minor in the ﬁnale, which teeters on but not over

i

�the edge of seriousness. Mozart later borrowed a bit of this section for the mock­
tragic trials of Papageno in The Magic Flute. With the rounding oﬀ of the rondo,
the sun re­appears and the concerto concludes in high spirits.
T. Perry 2004

In the summer of 1889, at the age of 48, the struggles of D vorék’s early
career were ﬁnally over. His music had been performed across Europe, he had
an assured income, numerous oﬀers of honors and engagements, the friendship
and esteem of his idol Brahms, and perhaps most importantly, he had proven
himself artistically. And so he wrote his Eighth Symphony, more freely and
imaginatively structured, more abundant in melody and color, more song­and­
dance like ­ in short, more truly his own.
The symphony opens with a broad, hymn­like melody for ‘cellos and
violas ­ almost an opening “prayer” or invocation before the sun comes out,
birdsong is heard from the ﬂute, and a dancing rhythm builds to a huge climax
that really launches the symphony on its way. A string of melodies pours out, by
turns tender, dance­like and grandiose; and again and again woodwind birdsong
brightens the texture and lightens the heart. The development section is at times
stormy, but the energy unleashed is life­aﬀirming rather than menacing, and as
the movement ends Dvordk’s exuberance seems to have burst its banks in a
joyful torrent of G­major. The lovely Adagio comes as a calm contrast,
beginning in a subdued c­minor. But once again, birdsong and folk­dance begin
to creep in, lightening the mood ­ and a sweetly lyrical violin solo ushers in the
unmistakable strains of the “village music” Dvordk loved so much. Once again,
there are rumbles of summer thunder and a torrential outburst at the centre of the
movement, but all is radiant C­major calm as the Adagio ends. The Allegretto
grazioso is too measured and graceful to be a scherzo ­ it more closely resembles
one of Brahms’ intermezzi complete with meter­ and tempo ­ change in the
coda. Its lilting, Slavonic strain of melody and wistful, limpid Trio section need
no elaboration. The Finale begins with a stirring fanfare, and proceeds through a
colorful, increasingly lively set of variations on a theme announced by the
‘cellos. As in the “Eroica” this gives way to a bustling minor­key development
section, and then a recapitulation of the variations, with a brief, reﬂective
interlude before the symphony speeds to a brilliant, exuberant ﬁnish in sunlit G­ ­

major.

The Eighth Symphony was premiered in February 1890 in Prague, and
then given in London shortly before Dvorak traveled to Cambridge to receive an
honorary doctorate. For this reason, it has sometimes been called the “English”
symphony ­ a strange twist of fate, for, although Dvordk had another great
symphony in him yet, no other work of his would ever so embody the truth of
what he once said about himself ­ “In spite of the fact that I have moved about in
the great world of music, I shall remain what I have always been ­ a simple
Czech musician.”

William S. Pike to Annie Wilcox.
Posted from Fort Federal Hill, Baltimore, Maryland.

One 8” x 10” sheet folded to form four 5” x 8” pages.
Written in black ink on blue-lined stationery paper, page four appears to
have been unlined. Embossed with a seal in the upper left hand corners of pages
one and three. The seal is in the shape of a shield containing three circles
separated by a chevron, the chevron contains the word “CARSON’S.” The blue
lines of the paper are quite faded. Ink appears unfaded. Moderate foxing. Some
dark gray staining of unknown origin appears in the upper third, center, of page
one. There are two small (&lt; 1/16”) holes where the two horizontal creases cross
the single vertical crease and slight tears at the free ends of the horizontal creases
of page one/two. There are three creases: one vertical and two horizontal.
Folded size is 5” x 2.75”.

Dear Cousin
1863
Your Welcome Letter
I now seat myself to answer.
it found us all well. the weather
this Evening is rather unpleasant.
it is raining a little and I
am afraid that we are a going
to lose our sleighing. last week
the snow fell a nmber of inches
deep. and the sleighs have been
very busy Ever since it is the
first sleighing we have had
this winter. and I hate to
see it go away so soon. Minnie
has just gone and lain dowm
on the lounge. to take a nap
while I am writing. she does not

know that I have another letter
that I meanto write tonight
after I finish yours. This is
the second one that I have
written tonight or will be
when I get It done. has
Will written to you yet. if he has
not I will give him a bit of
a talking to in my next to him.
Leroy called in here tonight and
he and Meloin have gone to
Pekin. I suppose Minni in her
letter told you that she and
I were keeping house for him.
we are enjoying ourselves first
rate. but how long will it
last she will go to Michigan
in a few weeks. and Mell talks
of going home next week so this
Establishment will be broken
up. Hopson does not go to house
keeping intill spring. did you
see his wife when they were at

home. she is very good looking
just nineteen years old with
a skin as fair as a lilly black Eyes
and black curly hair. she has
always worn it curled since
she was a little girl. and
indeed it is pretty. so much
for her. Mell has been flirting
around with several of the
girls here. but I think that
his heart is with a young lady
in Earlville. We have an
Excellent School in Pekin this
winter better that we have
had before in a nunber of
terms. the Teachers name is
Daniel Wright of Albion.
How glad I would be if I could
come down there and stay awhile
perhaps I may some time when
I get rich Enough. shouldbe
pleased to see you here write soon
good bye. from your Cousin
Janette

Emory Wilcox to Anna Wilcox
Fort Federal Hill, Baltimore, Maryland.
This letter was enclosed in a 5.[25]” x 2.875” white envelope, with a cancelled
three cent stamp in the upper right corner; postmarked Ma[y] 4, BALTIMORE.
The postmark is 1.25” in diameter, blue ink, and overlays the stamp. The upper
left corner is occupied by an illustration of Fort Federal Hill in black ink. Printed,
in black ink, below the illustration:
FORT FEDERAL HILL, Baltimore, Md.

Garrisoned by 8th N. Y. Artillery,
Col. P. A. PORTER, commanding.
Addressed in blue ink to:
Miss Annie W
Smyrna
Chenango
N.
The envelope was opened by tearing off the right side. The tear removed the right
half of the stamp and postmark. Also torn off are most of the name ‘Wilcox,’ the
‘Co.’ from ‘Chenango Co.’ and the ‘Y’ from ‘N.Y.’ Very slight foxing along the
edges. There are blue ink stains on the back, probably from postmarks on other
letters.
Written in black ink, in a different hand, on the back:
Smyrna
June 10
Two and one-half pages.
One 7.5” x 9” sheet folded to form four 4.5” x 7.5” pages.
Written in two distinct black inks on blue lined stationery paper, page four
appears to have been unlined. The top of page one has “Co.B. 8th N.Y.Art.”
printed in black ink. The ink changes halfway down page two. The earlier ink is
more faded than the later ink. Very slight foxing, mostly along the single vertical

�crease. The lower third of pages 3/4 has been cut away. There are three creases:
one vertical and two horizontal. Folded size is 4.5” x 2.625”.

Dear Cousin

I received
your very welcome letter
of the 10th̤ inst in due
time and was glad to
hear from you also fro 54
to get your Photograph
of which I think a great
deal
I am well as
usual in fact I have not
been sick but two weeks since

54

Word crossed out.

�Letter 28
Page 2

I enlisted and then I
had the mumps
Russel wrote to
me that Ona had gone
home with Uncle Ben so
I wrote her a letter a day
or two before I received
yours and directed it to
Smyrna
We have been
relieved at Patterson Park
the convalescents doing their
own guard duty there
is considerable activity
in this department at
the present time I do
not think the rebels
will attempt to take
this city if they would
I think they would have
a fine time in getting

�Letter 28
Page 3

back to Virginia. if they
should take the city
which is very doubtful
they would not hold
it long and the time
taken for them to come
here would give us time
to get ready for them
What so people
think about the war
about Smyrna Yesterday
morning we could hear
guns here quite plain
I think they were practicng
at the Relay house about
10 miles from here
No more at present
Write soon
From your Cousin
Annie. E. Wilcox. Emory. Wilcox
