September, 2000 Amy Beach: The First Great Woman Composer of America by Gail Smith This month we celebrate the birthday of America's first great woman composer, Amy Beach. Amy Beach was born on September 5, 1867 in Henniker, New Hampshire. Her mother was her first piano teacher. Amy was a child prodigy who composed her first song when she was only four years old. She was very sound sensitive and heard music in colors. To Amy, the key of G was red, E flat was pink, A flat was blue, the color green was the key of A and E Major was yellow. Amy made her debut at the age of sixteen with the Boston Symphony Orchestra. She was a prolific composer during her twenty-five year marriage to Dr. H. H. A. Beach. After his death she went to Europe for four years. During this time Amy performed the concerto she had written in concerts with major orchestras all over Europe. Upon her return to America she became the most famous composer-pianist of her time. Amy spent many summers composing at the MacDowell Colony in Peterborough, New Hampshire. She was a close friend of Edward MacDowell's widow, Marian. The concert with the Boston Pops Recently, on a beautiful summer evening at Boston's famous Hatch Shell, the Boston Pops paid tribute to Amy Beach. Her name was added to the granite wall on "The Shell". The unveiling took place on July 9th, 2000. Now Amy Beach's name is carved into the granite facade along with the names of 86 other composers such as Bach, Handel, Chopin, Debussy, MacDowell and Beethoven. Amy Beach is the only woman composer on the granite wall!

25. Amy Beach And The American Symphonic Movement Article by Adrienne Fried Block detailing the composer's ideas for a national voice in orchestral music, showing how she put these into practice in the Gaelic Symphony. http://www.americancomposers.org/beach_article.htm

FOR TICKETS CALL CarnegieCharge: aco homepage concert schedule How to Write an American Symphony: Amy Beach and the birth of "Gaelic" Symphony In 1894, Amy Beach (1867-1944) began work on her Symphony in E-minor, ("Gaelic"), completing it in 1896. Four of the symphony's themes are traditional Irish-Gaelic melodies, hence the designation, "Gaelic." In choosing Irish music, Beach tapped into a rich heritage that had been part of the American musical mainstream for at least a century, and by the 1890s, was assimilated into the new genre called popular music. Beach, who signed all her music "Mrs. H. H. A. Beach," was the youngest member of the Boston composers' group, the country's first school of art music. Born Amy Marcy Cheney in the small town of Henniker, New Hampshire, at age four she began playing piano and composing. The family relocated to Boston in 1875, where she made her piano debut at sixteen, playing Moscheles Piano Concerto in G minor with orchestra. Critics found her musicianship and technical equipment superb. At her debut with the Boston Symphony Orchestra in 1885, she earned glowing reviews for her performance of Chopin's F-minor Concerto . Equally gifted in composition, her first big success came when Boston's Handel and Haydn Society gave the premiere of her Mass in E-flat, op. 5, a 75-minute work for solo quartet, chorus, organ, and orchestra. The premiere of the "Gaelic" Symphony, on 30 October 1896 was given by the Boston Symphony Orchestra. She was now "one of the boys," or so composer George Whitefield Chadwick wrote, signaling acceptance by the established Boston composers: men were symphonists, not women.

Amy Beach and Her Chamber Music: Biography, Documents, Style a review by Juanita Karpf as published in the June 1995 issue of the IAWM Journal Amy Beach and Her Chamber Music: Biography, Documents, Style by Jeanell Wise Brown, Tennessee Temple Universty, Chattanooga, Tennessee, published in 1994 by The Scarecrow Press, Inc. 52 Liberty Street, P.O. Box 4167, Metuchen, New Jersey 08840; (908) 548-8600; FAX: (908) 548-5767; ISBN 0-8108-1884-7 (hardback); 407 pp. Published as No. 16 in the Scarecrow Press series, "Composers of North America," Jeanell Wise Brown's Amy Beach and Her Chamber Music is the sixth volume in the series to chronicle the life and works of a woman composer. Curiously, however, much of the material found in Brown's work is covered in an earlier study, No. 2 (1987): Energy and Individuality in the Art of Anna Huntington, Sculptor, and Amy Beach, Composer , by Myrna G. Eden. While none of us desires to slight Amy Beach's prodigious creative output and her undeniable influence on American music, why publish two full length studies on Beach in such a short period of time? Surely there are other women composers whose careers merit the attention of this series. Numerous other problems mar Brown's work, and oversights and inaccuracies appear with regularity throughout her book. Writing about American composers active during the late 1800's, Brown states, "It may be said of the New England group, for example, that most of them studied extensively in Europe..."(20). To which members of the "New England group" does Brown refer? She never makes their identity known. Other seemingly significant figures also remain anonymous. Brown writes that Beach's "compositions were being introduced in major European cities by prominent singers and chamber music groups. As mentioned previously [40], for example, the Violin Sonata was successfully performed in Berlin with Teresa Carreño at the piano..." (47-48). Surely a performer of Carreño's reputation would have teamed up with other world-renowned musicians, yet we never learn the name of the violinist.

Beach, Amy Marcy Cheney (1867-1944), composer and pianist Born in Henniker, New Hampshire, on September 5, 1867, Amy Cheney had already demonstrated precocious musical talent when the family moved to Boston in 1870. She began taking piano lessons at age six, although she had been composing simple melodies on the keyboard since age four. In October 1883, at the age of 16, she gave her first public recital at Boston Music Hall. Several more successful recitals followed, and in March 1885 she played the Chopin Piano Concerto in F Minor with the Boston Symphony Orchestra. In December 1885 she married Dr. Henry H.A. Beach, an eminent surgeon, Harvard professor, and devoted amateur musician. He encouraged his wife to concentrate on composition, and, curtailing her public performing, she undertook a rigorous course of self-instruction in musical theory and composition. Her first efforts were in smaller formsmusical settings of favorite poems and other piecesbut in February 1892 she heard the Boston Symphony and the Handel and Haydn Society perform her Mass in E-flat (written 1890), her first major work (numbered Opus 5) and the first by a woman to be performed by those organizations. Her subsequent important compositions include "Eilende Wolken" (1892), an aria based on text by Friedrich von Schiller;

September 1867 in West Henniker, New Hampshire geboren und starb am 27. Dezember 1944 in New York City. Zu einer Zeit, als alle Welt davon überzeugt war, daß nur Männer gut komponieren können, nicht aber Frauen, brach Mrs. Amy Beach in die Domäne der Orchesterschaffenden ein. Amy Beach war die erste nordamerikanische Komponistin, die es gewagt hat, eine Symphonie zu schreiben. Amy Marcy Cheney Beach begann ihre Karriere als Wunderkind: Schon als Einjährige - so heißt es - konnte sie 40 verschiedene Melodien singen, im Alter von 2 Jahren improvisierte sie die zweite Stimme, und mit 3 brachte sie sich selbst das Lesen bei. Auch als Komponistin verließ sie sich auf ihre autodidaktischen Fähigkeiten: Die Kunst der Orchesterinstrumentation eignete sie sich mit der Instrumentationslehre von Hector Berlioz an.
