He was the son of a choirmaster and teacher, Johann Gänsbacher +••.••(...)), and as a boy sang in church choirs in Sterzing, Innsbruck, Hall and Bolzano; he also had lessons in piano, organ, violin, cello and thoroughbass. In 1795 he went to the university at Innsbruck and studied first philosophy, then law, supporting himself by giving music lessons, playing the organ, singing in church choirs and playing in the theatre orchestra. His first compositions date from this period. While at university he took part in four campaigns against Napoleon. In 1801 he went to Vienna to continue his musical studies, and was relieved of financial worries when Count Firmian, who further promoted his career as a musician, took him into his family as a son in about 1803. In Vienna he had lessons from the Abbé Vogler +••.••(...)) and from Albrechtsberger (1806). A Mass in C, composed through the offices of Vogler for Nikolaus Esterhazy in 1806, established his reputation as a composer. Nevertheless, he returned to Vogler in Darmstadt for a short period in 1810, where his fellow-pupils and friends included Weber and Meyerbeer, who admitted him as a founder-member of the ‘Harmonische Verein’, for which he was active until 1813. In January 1813 he met Weber in Prague and recommended him for the post of Kapellmeister of the theatre. In the summer of the same year Gänsbacher returned to the Tyrol to join the fighting to liberate the province from the Bavarian occupation. After the end of the war he did not return to the Firmian family but joined the army as a first lieutenant (1814). He was stationed first in Italian garrisons, in Trient, Mantua and Padua then at Innsbruck in 1815, where he again tried to gain a foothold as a musician. He worked as a conductor and director of a church choir, and helped to found the Musikverein, though he did not gain the position of chief conductor. He did not accept the post of director of music in Dresden, offered him at the instigation of Weber in 1823, since (after representations against the election of Joseph Weigl), he was appointed Kapellmeister of the Stephansdom in Vienna as successor to Josef Preindl in September 1824. One of the choristers was his nephew Anton Mitterwurzer +••.••(...)), later famous as an opera singer. From this time on Gänsbacher composed mainly church music, and only a few homage cantatas. By the time of his death he was one of the most famous musicians in Vienna. Some of Gänsbacher's early instrumental compositions, such as the Clarinet Concertino and the sonatas in F major (1803) and G minor (1810), are remarkable for the individuality of their ideas and their unconventional structure, while his Italian canzonettas and terzetti are effective for their reticent simplicity. Yet the works he composed later for social performance clearly show a deterioration of quality. Even before his 20 years at the Stephansdom, sacred music was becoming central to his output. Starting with the masses in C and B and the Requiem (1812), he wrote some creditable and well-regarded works in this field. Although they do not stand out from the manner of their time, and show little stylistic innovation, they nonetheless show Gänsbacher's considerable skill as a composer. His son Josef Gänsbacher +••.••(...)) studied the piano, the cello and singing, and went to university to read law, graduating in 1855. He practised law for a number of years, but concurrently gave piano and singing lessons, and in 1868 devoted himself entirely to teaching singing. From 1875 to 1904 he was a tutor at the conservatory of the Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde, becoming by the turn of the century the most highly-regarded singing teacher in Vienna. Some of his pupils achieved international recognition, including Maria Wilt, Milka Ternina, Leopold Demuth and Julius Liban. Brahms dedicated his cello sonata op.38 to him. He was a composer, chiefly of songs but also of piano and choral pieces, and was a co-editor of the Schubert complete edition.

Horowitz showed enough prodigious talent to play for Alexander Scriabin in 1915, just before the Russian composer-pianist’s early death. Horowitz would become a superlative interpreter of Scriabin’s music, which the pianist described as “mystical… expressionistic.” Horowitz also became friends with another great Russian composer-pianist (and Scriabin’s former schoolmate), Sergei Rachmaninoff – who was the acme of Romanticism. He also made a benchmark recording of Rachmaninoff’s Piano Sonata No. 2. Emigrating from Russia in 1925 and eventually settling in New York City, Horowitz made his American debut with Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No. 1 in 1928 at Carnegie Hall, which would become his home venue, the site of many recordings. Impressed by the pianist’s tonal dynamism, conductor Thomas Beecham, who led that concert, reportedly said: “Really, Mr. Horowitz, you can’t play like that – it shows the orchestra up.” Horowitz made a series of solo recordings for HMV at London’s Abbey Road Studios in 1932, including several Chopin pieces and an electrifying take on Liszt’s B Minor Sonata, helping to establish the piece in the standard repertoire. A review of a 1933 London concert declared Horowitz “the greatest pianist dead or alive.” Horowitz would make hit recordings with Toscanini of the Tchaikovsky concerto and the Brahms Piano Concerto No. 2 in 1940–41. Over the course of his career, Horowitz’s recorded repertoire stretched far beyond those early specialties of Chopin, Brahms, Liszt, Tchaikovsky, Scriabin and Rachmaninoff; in long associations for RCA, then Columbia and, finally, Deutsche Grammophon, Horowitz also ranged from Scarlatti, Haydn and Clementi to Beethoven, Schumann and miniatures across the ages with artistic and commercial success; in a period of applying himself to modern music, he premiered Samuel Barber’s Sonata in 1950, along with recording sonatas by Prokofiev and Kabalevsky. Driven to “grow until I die,” he said, the pianist reapplied himself to select Beethoven sonatas in his middle period and then several Mozart works as he grew older. Horowitz also crafted his own transcriptions and arrangements, including such showstoppers as his variations on Carmen and Stars and Stripes Forever. In his book The Great Pianists, critic Harold Schonberg wrote: “As a technician, Horowitz was one of the most honest in the history of modern pianism. Famously high-strung, his art always a mental-physical high-wire act, Horowitz took four sabbaticals from public performance to deal with various issues, his returns much-ballyhooed events. The first layoff was for two years in 1936; the longest was 1953 to 1965, followed by a tremendous homecoming to Carnegie Hall. But even over his later breaks, he recorded regularly at home in his Manhattan townhouse, documenting his art as it subtly evolved even beyond great venues and the recording studio. A 1985 film, The Last Romantic, captured the pianist in his last years, performing at home as well as reminiscing about Scriabin and Rachmaninoff. The next year, Horowitz returned to Russia, 61 years after leaving — a hugely emotional event for both artist and audience, documented in the concert album and film Horowitz in Moscow. In 1987, he played his final recital, in Hamburg; he died two years later. “Piano playing consists of intellect, heart and technique,” Horowitz said. “All should be equally developed. Without intellect, you will be a fiasco; without technique, an amateur; without heart, a machine. The profession has its perils.”

Many composers view the act of composing as, somehow, above social conditioning. I contest that. How you arrange your musical material, the techniques you use, and the instruments you score for, are largely determined by your own social circumstances and listening experience, and the availability of financial support. I do agree, though, that abstract musical material - pitch, duration, and rhythm - are beyond social conditioning: it is found in nature. However, the moment the musical material is ordered it becomes culture and hence a social entity. I have used passages from Plato to illustrate these points. His text is politically controversial, if not downright negative: Everyone can see the absurdity of Plato's statement that the Mixolydian mode should be banned as it would have a damaging influence on the development of character. My second reason for writing De Staat is a direct contradiction of the first: I deplore the fact that Plato was wrong. If only it were true that musical innovation could change the laws of the State! I could write beautiful symphonic music, but then I'm not doing what I want to do, which is to develop a musical language which has other roots. In De Staat, you will recognize scales and pitches from Indonesian music, for example. Early bop and cool jazz have also influenced me very strongly, much more than Mozart, Bach, and Brahms. De Staat has nothing to do with Greek music, except perhaps for the use of oboes and harps and for the fact that the entire work is based on tetrachords, groups of four notes, which also explains the scoring for groups of four.
