Did not compose a single symphonic poem- not sure about that?- hrm. My notations from searching various catalogs for a partial Klughardt worklist some months back (I'm list-happy) include the cryptic and probably incorrect note 'a tone poem, on CD' but there is an 'Im frühling' op. 30 in the Library of Congress. Don't know what it is though. (And the Tonbilder 'Zerstörung Jerusalems' (the Destruction of Jerusalem) op. 75, don't know what sort of piece this is either. I will transfer what I can (sufficiently...) verify of my list though, including the cello concerto, the oboe concertpiece, the Schilflieder op 28, e.g. though... perhaps, and keys and opus #s for several of the symphonies (not the sixth though, I don't have that one - str op 62 & pno quintets in G minor, sym 3 in D op 37, sym 5 in C minor op 71, sym (1? 2?) in A minor op 34, yes- the one with its own page in DE wikipedia is sym 4 I recall?... a trio pno/str in B-flat op 47, quartets for strings op 61 and in F, concert ov op 45, conc op 68 (instr unknown to me at this time), for cello op 59 has been recorded, oboe concertpiece op 18, etc - various piano pieces etc., in LoC catalog and British Library) Schissel : bowl listen 22:01, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
- The list of works in MGG (this is an important German music encyclopedia) does not name a symphonic poem. Die Zerstörung Jerusalems is an oratorio. I don't know: perhaps it is called "Tonbilder" (in English Tone Pictures) in the subtitle. Im Frühling (In spring) is a Concert Overture according to MGG. You are right, Symphony No. 4 has an own page in DE wikipedia. I have to look at it once more. --Holger Sambale 16:40, 14 October 2005 (UTC)
Ah, thanks- this does clarify matters. (There's a L. Gerlach August Klughardt, sein Leben und seine Werke. which I hope someone has access to which may help even more, of course, pub. in 1902.) I also see that the Schilflieder is a trio, piano/ob/vla, not a set of songs. Whoops.) (Piano qnt. is op.43 it seems, from a source that has the occasional- hrmph- typo ;). But which also suggests that op #s go up as far as 88 at least.) (Hrm. Operas incl. Gudrun, Die Hochzeit des Mönchs, Iwein,)... also, according to Yale Lib., the quartet in F is op. 42. Hadn't seen anywhere with the op. # before; they have the Bote & Bock publication apparently in score and parts. Cornell in whose plant sciences dept. I work as scanning ass't, has - one recording of the wind quintet, and that's it. Good library generally, mind... Schissel : bowl listen 03:36, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
Whoops - Really need to read the article (yours and the de:...) before posting what I think is new information ;) ) right! (NY Public Library does have a vocal score of Zerstorung Jerusalems, and I very occasionally go there, so I might have a look. Only a few other works of Klughardt's in New York libraries that I can find - some chamber music, two of the symphonies, some vocal music. Schissel : bowl listen 16:54, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
- Hello Eric, it might be a good idea to look for the years in which the works were composed in the scores. In most cases, MGG only lists the year in which they were published, perhaps the scores can give us some additional information. As well, I don't know some Opus numbers (Die Zerstörung Jerusalems seems to be Opus 75 according to your list...). --Holger Sambale 15:13, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
That's how it's listed in the library catalog or two in which I've seen it for some reason, where 1903 is given as the date of publication- not of composition naturally enough- and C.Giessel jun. as the publisher to the vocal score (of the edition with Constance Bache as translator, at University of Rochester. There's a German vocal score at NY Public Library.) Since his opus #s do go well into the 80s or 90s I'm supposing there's something wrong there, yes... it might be a republication, and the composition date may be in the score, so next I'm at NYP(ub)L(ib) I need to write down to have a look...
