Title: Friedrich Gernsheim (1839-1916)
Post by: Chafing Dish on February 15, 2009, 04:28:48 PM
Anyone know about this composer? I have seen a few scores and am intrigued. It's not the least imaginative chamber music I've ever seen.

AFAIK my library contains 0 recordings and I'm wondering if I should convince them to order something... the four Symphonies seem to be available on Arte Nova, and more scores at the IMSLP.org

Thanks for any tips

Yes, I have this disk:

and find it to be a most enjoyable listening experience. The music is reminiscent of Mendelssohn and other Middle Romantic composers, with nice dramatic touches and plenty of forward momentum. Good horn parts too, if you like horns as I do. If the music of that era intrigues you, you won't be disappointed. :)

Also own the same 'double-disc' set described by Gurn; in addition, I have a Cello Concerto set (pic inserted above) w/ a work by the same composer - have not really checked into other offerings since these purchases -  :)

Thanks for putting that back on my radar. I heard it once and something about it bored me to tears, I think a reappraisal is due...

It's a big chunk of music to just sit and listen to the whole thing. I generally listen to one or another of them at a time. Works a lot better that way, at least for me. :)

A brief update to say that I've located the 4 symphonies in score in my library. I checked them out and will pore through them.

Also the String Quartet in A major, but not a score, just the parts. (Grump)

The Gernsheim Symphonies need repeated listenings, before you get the hang of it. Complicated thickly scored works, with more than a hint from Brahms and Schumann to be found.
In some parts original, but if not great music, its interesting nevertheless.

Well, Gurn, you & I both concerning chamber works!  Just getting back online this morning and checking over in Amazon, 'slim pickings'!  There is a CD being offered for $20 (by Amazon) w/ one Brahms & one Gernsheim String Quartet - I'd rather have all Gernsheim - oh well,  :-\

I have the symphonies on Arte Nova. It's an inexpensive way to get acquainted with the lesser symphonists of that period, but hardly essential.

Just a quick note even at the risk of appearing to be a 'Johnny one-note'

I have been listening to the Gernsheim symphonies on cpo ARTE nova. They are the works of a real craftsman, but I don't see what distinguishes him from Brahms.

Not that this makes him inconsequential... but if I wanted Brahms symphonies 5-8, I would have kept Brahms alive a little longer.

Let me put it another way. The liner notes of the CD, as well as the programme notes in the scores, indicate (in response to people like me) that he has a 'distinct' voice and should not be thought of as a mere Brahms epigone. Oddly enough, I need more evidence than the music itself to concur with that.

Just TTT!  ;D  Seems to be increased interest in this composer and since my last comments, I've acquired the two chamber discs shown below - although I like his Symphonies, these 'small group' compositions are quite excellent, and will likely bring Gernsheim some belated respect - this is well-crafted Romantic music -  :)

LOL!  ;D  Same initials -  8)  Frank Gorshin (1933-2005) as the Riddler - when I was an undergrad student at the U of Michigan in the 1960s, the TV room in the dorm would fill up when that series came on - remember it well!  :D

An excellent composer in the Schumann-Brahmsian mold.    :)
In 1877 he married Helene Hernsheim from Karlsruhe.
His music was admired by his contemporaries, Brahms, Bruch, Mahler, Clara Schumann, and many others.
Due to his Jewish background, his work was banned in Nazi Germany, and his papers and a biography written on him by Karl Holl were removed from music libraries.

Not that this makes him inconsequential... but if I wanted Brahms symphonies 5-8, I would have kept Brahms alive a little longer.

The symphonies are basically Brahms epigone material, yes—specifically, imitations of Brahms's 1st and its "big tune". (Though I am rather fond of G's 4th)

A work that seems more interesting and original to me, at first glance anyway, is the fourth Violin Sonata Op. 85, which suggests that in addition to Brahms and Mendelssohn Gernsheim absorbed no small amount of the influence of Wagner. (Check out the score on IMSLP) It can be heard on a Brilliant 2fer of all four sonatas, as well as a SWR release with Hummel and Schubert. Gernsheim's other late compositions, e.g. the later cello sonatas and concerto, may also be worth examination, but I don't know them yet.

Gernsheim's first symphony was published before Brahms' first.
Gernsheim's 2nd symphony has an obvious homage to his great friend, Brahms, in its first movement before moving off into its own path.
The oft-opined view that there were "imitations" in this symphony to Brahms' third, is, of course, untrue - Brahms had not yet started his 3rd symphony.

Gernsheim's first symphony was published before Brahms' first.
Brahms's first symphony was started around 1854, first shown to his friends around 1862 and mostly finished by 1874, when Gernsheim's first was published and Brahms began revising and correcting his first for performance. (Remember that Gernsheim was a close friend of Brahms's and likely heard drafts of the symphony at the piano before it was formally premiered.)

However it's true that his 1st is relatively less touched by that melody (actually what it reminds me most of is Berwald's Sinfonie sérieuse in the same key), while it remains almost an obsession through the finales of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th.
Title: Re: Friedrich Gernsheim (1839-1916)
Post by: Scion7 on August 26, 2014, 03:59:38 AM
That's one view. 

However, others disagree, for example:

But where Brahms was ponderous and stern with a particular inclination in the directions of melancholy and tragedy, Gernsheim's music displayed an entirely different character, one that was filled with lightness, not to mention Mediterranean inclinations and even fantasy. However, both Brahms and Gernsheim were rooted in the Classical tradition. Where Brahms looked to Beethoven for his inspiration, Gernsheim was influenced by Spohr, Mendelssohn, and Schubert, and to a lesser degree Beethoven.

Lost in the shadow of his great colleague and friend Brahms, Gernsheim is described in a 1928 biography by Karl Holl as "a meistersinger who made the best of his talent in his own particular way." Holl also offered a description of Gernsheim's four symphonies, noting that the first was "impassioned," the second "idyllic," the third "heroic," and the fourth "joyful."

If you're expecting Brahms, then don't buy these discs, for Brahms simply isn't there. On the other hand, if you're looking for a different view of his era, then you will find the inspired playing and impeccable musicianship in this two-disc set just what the doctor ordered. Siegfried Kohler steers his fine orchestra through these uncharted waters with confidence and commitment, and his performances leave no stone unturned and nothing to be desired. This is unquestionably magnificent music with much to say, and it more than occasionally knocks on the door of greatness!

Gernsheim TTT!  Last posts from 2014 - quoted below is a post of mine from 2010!  The works in bold are my present holdings and the only new one that I added and put in bold also are the Violin Sonatas (a 2 CD set).  In perusing Amazon, appears that some newer recordings have appeared (now, a number are duplicates already in bold and mentioned previously, such as the Piano Quintets & Symphonies):  Cello Sonatas (CPO), Piano Music (Toccata), Piano Quintets 1 & 2 (CPO), Piano Trios 1 & 2 (Antes), String Quartets V.1 (CPO), Symphonies 1 & 3 (CPO), Symphonies 2 & 4 (CPO) & Violin Concertos (CPO) - below I've added the non-duplicates from this list in italics.

Title: Re: Friedrich Gernsheim (1839-1916)

Friedrich TTT! - just left the post below in the listening thread, some new piano additions to my Gernsheim collection - looks like more are 'in the works'?  Dave :)

Quote from: SonicMan46 on February 02, 2023, 01:10:59 PMSeveral more recent arrivals:

Gernsheim, Friedrich (1839-1916) - Piano Works, Vs. 1 & 2 w/ Jens Barnieck, apparently more to be released which piqued my interest as to 'how much' he wrote for the piano (on which he was a child prodigy)?  So, checked out his list of works HERE (https://imslp.org/wiki/Category:Gernsheim,_Friedrich) - at the bottom are those w/ Opus numbers which did not include the 3 juvenilia sonatas from his mid-teens but all are on the 2 CDs, along with the others in BOLD - thus there appears to be a LOT left for more recordings.  BTW, Barnieck had to 'reconstruct' these early sonatas from manuscripts.  Dave :)
