Alfred Schnittke Alexander Raskatov Irina Schnittke Gennady Rozhdestvensky Nikolai Korndorf Monk Brodsky Cape Philharmonic Orchestra Dresden Philharmonic 1808 1958 1994 1996 1998 2001 2007
Cape Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Owain Arwel Hughes I - [Andante]: 0:00 II - Moderato: 18:08 III - Presto: 26:10 Schnittke's final ninth symphony was composed between 1996-7, finishing it before his death in Hamburg on 3rd August 1998. In July 1994, Schnittke had suffered a stroke, which left him unable to speak and move the right side of his body. However, he could still write music using his left hand, but the original score was very difficult to read. After the composer’s death, his wife Irina Schnittke decided to find a composer who would be able to decipher Schnittke’s score. The first one was Gennady Rozhdestvensky, who colaborated extensively with the composer before. He completed a version in a few months, and it was premiered in the Great Hall of the Moscow Conservatory on 19th June 1998. Rozhdestvensky’s version of the Ninth Symphony, however, had very little in common with the original score. As he later explained in an interview in the Russian magazine Ogonyok, his work on the original score was "an attempt (within one’s powers) to decipher a musical abracadabra". Schnittke himself heard the performance's recording and was not happy with the result, rejecting Rozhdestvensky’s version and banning it to prevent more performances. Irina then decided to find a composer who would remain faithful to the original score. The Russian-Canadian composer Nikolai Korndorf began a second version with great energy and determination, trying to be as close as possible to the late style of the composer. Unfortunately, Korndorf was unable to finish the work, as he died in 2001. Alexander Raskatov then agreed to continue the deciphering process, taking several years to complete ir. Finally, Schnittke’s Symphony No.9 in Raskatov’s version was premiered in Dresden on 16th June 2007, with the Dresden Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Dennis Russell Davis. The first movement originally had no tempo marking. Raskatov added Andante following Irina Schnittke's suggestion that the composer's idea was to escalate from a slow movement at the beginning to a faster one in the middle and a very fast movement at the end. The movement constitutes a kind of testament from the composer. His style is ascetic, reflecting a deep spirituality. A slow theme, full of pain and melancholy, is presented by the strings and followed by the clarinet and trombone, constituting the basis of the movement. Raskatov called that section: "voice from beyond". In the central part the drama increases and the music takes on a harsher character. Brass fanfares shows a feeling of protest. It ends with the slow theme that constitutes a sober coda. The second movement begins with the strings followed by the wind instruments and harpsichord. The horn plays a delusive solo and the drum beats out a rhythm announcing a fast finale. Brass interventions become more aggressive, using a harsh atonal language. That movement is a transformation from the first movement's lamentation into the third movement's impetus. Schnittke's style is taken to its last consequences, seeking a new form of expression. The third movement begins with the strings presenting a vigorous atonal theme, later in dialogues between brass and woods. The strings and the piccolo carry on the dialogue, presenting a chromatic lyrical contrasting theme. The harpsichord comes back for a while. A short wind chorale increases and collapses, dissonant pianissimo chords close the work. Raskatov, who not only provided a thorough score but, convinced that Schnittke had intended to write a fourth movement, also developed the idea to add an independent epilogue, the “Nunc Dimitis” (“Lord, let thy servant now depart into thy promised rest”) for mezzo soprano, vocal quartett and orchestra. It is based on the famous text by orthodox monk Starets Siluan and on verses by Joseph Brodsky, Schnittke’s favourite poet. Picture: "The Banquet" (1958) by the Belgian painter Rene Magritte.
