Talk:Music for the Royal Fireworks

message: The shops and houses were cleared from the Old London Bridge, and a new central span constructed, a decade after the Royal Fireworks.  There must surely be something wrong with the anecdote about the bridge collapsing.  If the source is the same as for some other details, this might cast doubt on them too.

thread_title:  Tempo and interpretation 

message: I have been doing research on James William Windsor (b. 4 Feb 1776 in London; d. 28 Jan 1853 in Bath), the pricipal organist at Saint Margaret's Proprietary Chapel in Bath, and accomplished professor of the piano forte. Some fairly recently published books, found in Google books through a Google search, say that he was nicknamed "The Harmonious Blacksmith" due to his frequent performances of the air and variations of Handel suite in E major. He apparently already had this nickname by 1798 or so, when he was just 22 years old. He was by that time already the organist at Saint Margaret's and a subscriber to technical musical letters. He was also called "Professor of Music." He had a huge and impressive collection of original musical scores (some of them copied from sources that are no longer extant), which were donated to the Royal College of Music by his eldest daughter after her death in 1890. I have several musical scores that were presented to his niece Louisa Daniels (his wife Alicia was born Daniels), one of which was "The Creation: An Oratorio" Composed by Joseph Haydn Adapted for Voices and Piano Forte by Muzio Clementi, published by Clementi, Banger, Hyde, Collard and Davis in London.

Non-free former logo being used in a :WP:DECORATIVE manner in :KRPT#Previous logo which fails :WP:NFCC#8. Non-free former logos can be used as long as their use complies with :WP:NFC#cite_note-4 and this almost always means the logo itself about the logo and the associated change in brandling that led to its replacement is the subject of sourced critical commentary. Simply adding the logo to "show" what it looks like is not considered sufficient to satisfy :WP:NFC#CS, except in cases where the logo is being used for primary identification purposes at the top of or in the main infobox of an article about the organization the logo represents.

replies: text: Thanks for this, I'd already started a hunt for online references, but was coming up dry. I've also taken a copy of your revised text to look at offline as I feel that the article needs a serious re-writing. For one thing the description of the structure needs to make clear that this composition is structurally closer to Rossini's one-act operas than to the Mass proper. Graham1973 (talk) 06:38, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Improvements

message: Here is my current proposal for how the description of the structure of the mass should appear.
The Messa di Gloria is not structured as a traditional mass, but like an opera and is split into eight "numbers".
The first of these is the "Kyrie" which is divided into three portions, the first a dotted-rhythm "Kyrie eleison" for chorus in E flat minor, the second, a more lyrical E-flat major "Christe eleison" for two tenors (unusual scoring, and likely forbidden for ecclesiastical purposes), with the first minor-key section rounding out the prayer.  
The remaining seven "numbers" form the "Gloria", starting with a setting of the opening lines of the Gloria text in a manner not dissimilar to one of the composers overtures. This is followed by a series of arias with soprano soloists alternating with tenors, basses, etc.  The high point, emotionally, comes at the "Qui Sedes", which begins with a slow portion for chorus and tenor, then concludes with a brilliant cabaletta, showing off the extreme upper end of the tenor's range.  Critics of the time were slightly scandalized by Rossini's morphing of sacred ceremony into opera seria, and even buffa, at times.  Suffice it to say that this Mass sounds nothing like Mozart's Great Mass, Beethoven's Missa Solemnis, or Haydn's last twelve "name day" masses.Graham1973 (talk) 13:57, 11 May 2010 (UTC)

message: Is this song REALLY "A Blacksmith Courted Me"?  I know there are citations, but "A Blacksmith Courted Me" is a song that's very easy to find at least 10 recordings of, and I'm having a hard time convincing myself that it's the same song I'm hearing in this piece.  To summarize:
* The tune seems to be different
* The words don't seem to match this piece, rhythmically
* The Wikipedia article for "Courted" says that it is not to be confused with this song.
I've noticed that Holst also set that song for chorale in a different piece, so I'm wondering if there is some confusion among the community.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.214.44.114 (talk) 00:50, 2 October 2019 (UTC)

message: More accurate English translations for the titles of these songs would be an improvement.  The English versions of the titles currently listed are from a Universal Edition score (linked in the article) which offers English language translations whose syllables sync with the music as an alternative for those not wishing to sing them in the original German.  They are neither the most accurate nor the most common translations of the titles, as discussed in the following article: https://www.theguardian.com/music/tomserviceblog/2009/aug/21/mahler-lucerne.

message: Craft reports that Stravinsky admitted that when he was writing the work the score of Tchaikovsky's First Symphony was always on his piano.  Perhaps the abstract music into which it is suggested he retreated with this work was a little more recent than the sources suggested.   it's not an easy work to conduct - it can sound very sectional, as it did, for example, as late as the mid 1960s under Dorati at the Royal Festival Hall.   For the recording with the Chicago Symphony orchestra under the composer, a dozen or so years after the premiere, the orchestra was apparently rehearsed by Georg Szell.
