Lumry, Lincol SEPTEMBER 1898, WAS HIS LAST GREAT WORK Beethoven Wrote His Symphony. When Last MANUFACTURED MANY MUSICAL MELODIES Dr. Hnetens Concludes Min Diseuss slon of the Great Muslieal Come poser and His Efforts—Intro- ction of the Ode, In the following article Dr. Bieiens con- cludes his discussion of Beethoven's sym- phony. 1In this paper the doctor says: L. Sonnleithner related in 1864, on the au- thority of Carl Czerny, that shortly after the first performanca of the symphony, Beethoven admilted to a small co'erio of his mo:t intl- mate friends that he percelved that he had erred in the matter of the last movement of the symphony. He said he would cut it off and replace it with an instrumental move- ment, for which he already had a subject in his mind. This subject was probably the ons which haunted him all through tte last of the year 1521, occurring no less than thr e times in the midst of the work on other parts of the symphony. This subjeet, on itv first appearance, he identifie] by writing above it “Finale Instromentale.” Subsequently he used it in the quartet in A minor (Op. 132). Not- tabohm fixes the date of its fir:t appesra e» among the sketches as June or July of 1823 Among the sk-tches of th's cata is (o be found this significant observation Perhaps after all the chorus, “Freude Schoner” (the first words of Schiller's ode), 100Ks as if he had once abandoned the idea of a choral finale allogether and now again questioning whether he had not better use t In composing the finile Becthoven fi-st worked out the choral part. The me ody, sim ple and ing:nlous as it now app ars, was the Tesult of many experimenis and chinges, These occur more froquently in con-ection with the second period of the melody, “Freude,” in the prges da’ing the last mont's of 1822, than that even then the mooly we know had not been accapted without re- course. The date of the first of these cfforts is fixal by Nottebohm as July, 1823; tve others are later. The plan of using ““Turkish music” is given comical promin ne: in tie sketches. Among those last quot:d thore is a memorandum sugg s'ing the use of Turkish music in the setting of the lines: ‘Werdas nie gekonnt, acr stable Weln:na sich avs d esem Bund.” And agiin on the stulies for the alla Marcia,” already referrol to, he outlines a pan, which, afterwards exccated, is 2s fol- lows: “Turkish mus c—frst pianissimo— rests—then the full strength!” Whan the sketches for the choral movement mak - their appearance in the sketch beok they ttrong'y corroborate the test'mony of Schniler con carning the difficuity which Beethoven fouad in introducing the “Ode.” HIS FIRST PLAN.

State Convention of the W. O. 1. U, in Seswlon at Deatrice. BEATRICE, Sept. 28.—(Special)—Last ovening’s sesslon of the Stats Woman's Chris- tlan Temperance unfon convention was taken up with what was termed a “Crusade Camp Fire,” and the evening was made a most in- teresting one by reminiscences by old-time erusaders in the temperance work. Mrs. A, F. Newman of Lincoln and Mrs. M. M. Pugh of Omaha wero among the speakers, both talking in an entertaining manner. At this morning's session Mrs. G. W. Clark re- ported for soclal purity, reporfing ninety-one unfortunate girls in the state home. Mrs, M, A. Wakelin reported 220 “mothers’ meetings’ held during the past year. A memorial service was held at 10 o'clock, conducted by Mrs. Brokefleld. A telegraphic greeting from the Malne State Woman's Christian Temper- anco union convention, now in session, was recelved. A pleasing featurs of the morning session was the adoption by the convention of Francls Root, a baby “Y," and a rising vote of thanks to the mother. A report from the credentinls committee showed eighty-five delegates present. It has been decided not to bring the body of George Brewster, whose aceldental death was reported In The Bee this morning, to this city, and it will be taken dfrectly to the old home at Elmwood, 1L, for burial. The news of W. U. Reed’s horrible death was received in this city this morning with profound regret, the deceased having been an honored citizen of Gage county, and pos- sessing to an unusual degree the esteem of all_who knew him. Rev. T. 8. Leonard, a former pastor of the First Baptist church of Beatrice, has cepted a call to return and will preach his first sermon here October 6. A meoting of the Beatrice Industrial league, a business men’s organization recently of ganized, is called for Monday evening, to consider a proposition from one of the most extensive manufacturing plants in southeast- ern Nebraska, the proprietors desiring to lo- | cata here 1f satisfactory inducements are forthcoming.

Schindler relates in his blography: “When the work of elaborating the fourth movement was reached, a siruggle began, such as I have hardly ever seen. The diffi- culty lay in finding a fitting mode of intro- duction for Schiller's ode. One day as 1 entered the room he called out to me, ‘I have it! T have it? and extended a skefch- book in which he had written ‘Lot us sing the song of the immortal Schiller,’” stc. The leaf afterward fell into the possession of Schindler and was. by him preserved. It is now in the Royal library in Berlin. A number of the sketches made by Beetho- ven in groping for the path which would tead him back to the domain he had left when he took up with the plan of using voices are very interesting. (I have them but can not publish tmem here.) They are supposed to have been written in October, 1523. In the first line we recognize the sub- ject of the noisy ritornel that ushers in the last movement, and is interrupted by the first recitative’ of the basses. Then come the words, partly set to a_declamatory mel- ody: Today is a solemn d let it be cele brated with song and—illegible word.”) The ritornel is continued, and a reminiscence of the first movement introduced. Then again the voice enters with comment: “Oh, no, not this! Something differsnt, pleasing, 18 what I demand;" four bars of the scherzo pass in review, and the voice continues: “Nor this; it is not better, only a little merrier.” ~ The adagio Is suggested, fol- lowed by the words, "I shall see that I my- selt intone something, which * ¢ # re- peat (?) after me.’ Then come the bars which, in the instrumentai introduction as | it stands, suggest the melody of the ode, after which, “This it is! Ha! Now It Is found! ‘Freude seh.’” and the joy melody is | sung two bars. After this, still set to music, | comes: “This, too, is too' tender; something animated must be hunted for like the (il- legible word.”” Another setting gives the words of approval which follow the joy mel- ody (Ha! that is it! Now it is found! Kreude), shortly afterward, and this time they are given the very melody which is given out in the last recitative and by the baritone soloist as the work now stands. SINGING THE MELODY. To appreciate fuliy the interesting character | of thesa sketches the reader must be fa- wiliar with the last movement of the sym- phony. It opens with a turbulent “Presta” by the wind instruments, which is interrupted by Beethoven's original invention, a recita- tive of the cellos and basses; then the presto is repeated with angry emphasis, and again comes an expostulation from the speaking instruments; then in succession comz remin- {scences from the first three movements, with Intervening declamatory passages for the bass instruments; after the movements have thus been passed in review, the wood instruments sing the opening strains, which suggest the melody of the ode, and the bass instruments express their satisfaction as plainly as in- struments can. They act upon the sugges- tion of the wood instruments and sing the melody through to the end in union and alone; and then deliver it to the orchestra for variation. A very similar performance is then gone through in introducing the voices. The nofsy ritornel is heard again, but this time the expostulation comes from human lips, and is elothed with human lan- guage. It is the baritone soloist who ad- dresses the instruments: “O friends, not these tones! but let us unite tn more pleasant ones!" and then like the bass instruments before, he sings the melody to the end, and transférs it to the chorus. The remainder of the work s made up of variations on the melody. Now tho significance which we see In the sketches Is apparent to all; they form a plan in wo.ds which Beethoven carried out in the | music. ~ The problem he had set by in- trodueing voices in the sympheny was a | difficult one, the mor» so since the first three | movements were designed en'ire’y indepnd- ent of such an outcome. To attach a choral part to a symphony, with nothing more than en instrumental prelude, would have de- stroyed the form of the work, and left it wanting the essential spirit of unity. To accomplish the ionovation and yet at the same time erown the work with a finale that should seem an essential part of the whole, was the great problem, and we know how he solved it. He united three movements by the marshaling of their subjects at the close, and bridged the charm between the instru- ments and the voices with the Instrumental recitatives, Interpreting by their aid the sentiments which, as we have sesn, he out- lined in the plans as shown in the sketches, - - Teeumseh Appreein terprine.
