The MV Tapes - Matthijs Vermeulen: Symphony 6, °1958 (Haenchen)

Matthijs Vermeulen (°1888-1967) was the central composer of the Holland Festival of 1997 during which all symphonic works were performed by various major orchestras of the Netherlands (with the exception of the Concertgebouw Orchestra which has statutorily banned this composer from its programmes). As 2017 and 2018 are both "Vermeulen years" (in 2017 it is 50 years ago the composer died, in 2018 it will the composer's 130'th birthday) I would like to pay my homage by presenting this series of performances to an international audience. The installments will be published in the order the concerts were given. Now: Symphony 6, "Les minutes heureuses", by the Holland Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Hartmut Haenchen, a live recording from June 10, 1997.

Recommended reading for all interested in what is behind the notes, especially (beginning) composers. In this introduction to the Symphony, Vermeulen reveals the basic elements of his composing technique. "This technique may be formulated easily enough in theory, but to put it into practice is more difficult and makes great demands upon the composer. First, he must be able to hear and think in terms of this technique, an accomplishment that can be acquired, though it demands a particular turn of mind. Secondly, he must have at his disposal a fertile imagination and a robust gift for melodic invention. Thirdly, he must have just as great a command of counterpoint as Palestrina and Bach. Finally, he must have a complete grasp of the chordal possibilities of contemporary music." At the end he concludes: "So, contrary to my intentions, I am for the second time in my life in the paradoxical position of being thirty years in advance of the times. For I am well enough aware of what is lacking in contemporary music to feel an ardent desire to supply the deficiency. And in this I shall persist." !!
