The Published Music of LEOPOLD GODOWSKY

By Leonard South. Saxe

Leopold Godowsky was built-in in the village of Soshly near Vilna (then Russian Poland) on February 13, 1870, and died in New York City on November 21, 1938. He began to compose when he was seven years old. When he first came to New York on October 31, 1884, he had already been before the public equally a pianist Wunderkind for 5 years. He had just run abroad from the Berlin Hochschule fur Musik afterward spending four months in that location. His American debut occurred in Boston on Dec 7, 1884, with the Clara Kellogg Concert Visitor. Early the next year he appeared at the New York Casino, alternating weekly with Teresa Carreno. In 1886, he toured the northeastern Usa and Canada with Ovide Musin, the Belgian Violinist. Later that year he returned to Europe, intending to report with Liszt, only Liszt's expiry led Godowsky to earn his living playing in the salons of London and Paris. There he became a protege of Saint-Sa�ns who wanted to adopt him legally.

When Godowsky returned to the United States in 1890, Alexander Lambert, Manager of the New York College of Music, added him to the faculty at that place. His first pupil was Leonard Liebling. On May 1, 1891, shortly after reaching the age of twenty-ane and the day after he had married a New York girl, Frederica Saxe, Godowsky became a denizen of the United states. In lodge to satisfy the five year residence requirement, the date of his first inflow in this state was plain used.

In 1894-1895 he commuted to Philadelphia where he was Director of the 8 Piano Department of Gilbert Reynolds Combs' Wide Street Conservatory of Music. In 1895 Godowsky moved to Chicago where he remained until 1900 as head of the Pianoforte Department of the Chicago Solarium of Music, succeeding William H. Sherwood. In that location he developed his pedagogic theories of "weight and relaxation" in piano playing and gained repute equally a teacher. His praises, as a pianist and composer were sung with enthusiasm by his friend H.S.B. Mathews in Mathews' magazine, "Music". Late in the nineties, after listening to the get-go set of Godowsky's 'Studies on Chopin�due south Etudes', old Dr. William Mason marched into Schirmer's and insisted that the firm publish them � thus offset that series of 50-iii remarkable, transcendental pieces whose limerick ran over twenty years.

At a concert in Berlin on December half-dozen, 1900, Godowsky presented himself to the test of European stance, and attained such a phenomenal success that he was literally recognized overnight every bit 1 of the wor1d'south neat pianists and composers for the pianoforte. He thereupon settled in Berlin until 1909, education privately and making annual concert tours of Europe and the Near Due east. For those tours, he equanimous during the summers such works as the 'Metamorphoses on Johann Strauss' Themes', the 'Renaissance' transcriptions, and the 'Walzermasken'.

From 1909 to 1914 he was Director of the Klaviermeisterschule of the Imperial Regal Academy of Music in Vienna, succeeding Emile Sauer and Feruccio Busoni. He toured the U.s. during the winters of 1912- � 1913, and 1913-1914, and at the outbreak of Earth War I returned to live in the United States. Because Godowsky thought that by taking the oath as kbnigliche und kaiserliche Professor in Austria he might have forfeited his United States' citizenship, he became naturalized for a second fourth dimension in 1921. Meanwhile in 1912 he had begun his clan equally Editor in Chief of the Progressive Series of Piano Lessons, a piano teaching text for which West.S.B. Mathews had recommended him. That text and the accompanying edited exercises, studies and compositions occupied a substantial part of his fourth dimension for the years ending in 1922, the year in which he gave his last concert in the United States. It was during this menstruum that he equanimous the lyrical 'Triakontameron', which contains 'Alt Wien', the piece of work by which he is best known.

After 1922, Godowsky deliberately devoted himself primarily, to com- posing for his chosen musical instrument, although he made concert tours in Europe and other places that interested him, such as Central and South America, the Nearly and Far Due east. The Far Eastward gave him the inspiration for some of his loveliest music, the 'Java Suite'.

In June 1930 while Godowsky was in a London studio making a phono- graph recording, he suffered a stroke. He never played the piano again. Until his death, although his colleagues and pupils and myriads of personal friends worshipped him and his genius, he was a cleaved man and a tragic figure - a concert pianist who could no longer play the piano, a composer for the piano whose works were not widely appreciated. Yet Godowsky believed that after his death his compositions would be heard with growing frequency and that with those hearings would come appreciation and love for them. As a first step to the appreciation of Godowsky's music, information technology is my privilege to present a complete listing of all his published compositions. Godowsky's composing may be divided roughly into four periods - the first, to 1893, juvenilia and developing years; from 1893 to 1912, a menstruum of virtuosity and concert works; from 1912 to 1922, years in which his educ- ational works were stressed, including as such the 'Miniatures'; and finally the years from 1922 to 1930, the period of his reflective maturity. Throughout much of his life, Godowsky made many arrangements of piano pieces that appealed to him as of great beauty, but which he felt must be redone to accept full reward of the modern piano. Many were transcriptions of songs and orchestral works. He ofttimes wrote both original works1 and arrangements with a view to their add-on to the literature for the ' concert pianist.

In composing, Godowsky was a traditionalist. Only he developed tradition to the nth degree in its awarding to music for the piano. Completely familiar with all schools and styles he developed his ain singled-out idiom, including a new counterpoint for piano music. "Bach and Chopin", said Huneker. Although the intellectual mastery of his compositions has long been recognized, their poetic qualities remain virtually unmentioned. And even so in everything he composed, Godowsky created beauty in music. I fervently hope that my list will help accelerate the inevitable recognition of that great and cute music.

Listing OF PUBLICATIONS

(The publications have been bundled in three main groups, plus two smaller appendages.)* The main groups consist of Godowsky'due south Original Compositions, his Concert Paraphrases, Studies, Transcriptions and Arrangements, and finally his Educational Materials that he edited for the Fine art Publication Society in Saint Louis. A grouping of Cadenzas volition be plant at the end of the second main group, and the listing ends with a section of Arrangements by others of works by Godowsky.

With only a few exceptions, the dates when the works were registered for copyright have been supplied. With the early English publications, these dates are those when the work was entered at Stationers' Hall in London, but later on 1891 they are the dates of copyright registration in the United States Copyright Role. In only a few instances has it been necessary to requite only the year of publication.

In the group of Original Compositions, the works accept been arranged chronologically, except where a part of parts of a serial appeared at a subsequently appointment, and in such instances the parts have been reassembled and entered under the appointment when the series was started. In the other groups, the dates of publication have been disregarded, and the works arranged alphabetically nether the names of the composers on whose compositions Godowsky based his own. Within the terminal two main groups, there are pocket-sized modifications of this general dominion which will become obvious on consulting the listing. All compositions are for piano solo unless otherwise indicated. Unpublished compositions take non been included, except where their titles were entered as part of a series on the covers of published works, and in such instances information technology has seemed best to give the title, if but to specify that the prospective publication did not in fact appear.
