Concerto funebre

''Concerto funebre'' (''Funereal Concerto'') is a violin concerto by the German composer Karl Amadeus Hartmann. Written in 1939 and substantially revised in 1959, it is by far Hartmann's best known work, especially noted for its lyrical final movement. It is scored for string orchestra only. (The title is Italian, not French; hence there is no accent on the first 'e' of funebre.)
Unlike many of his works, which the composer did not consider completed before they had been substantially reworked as part of an ongoing process after the end of World War 2, the ''Concerto funebre'' was completed in a relatively short timespan, principally in autumn 1939. Originally entitled ''Musik der Trauer'' (''Music of Mourning''), after only minor revisions it was retitled in 1959.〔Rickards, Guy (1995) ''Hindemith, Hartmann and Henze'', Phaidon ISBN 0-7148-3174-3〕 It is cast in four movements:
# Introduktion. Largo
# Adagio
# Allegro di molto
# Choral. Langsamer Marsch
The final chorale is directly based on a popular German song ''Unsterbliche Opfer'' () (), (Victims ), knowledge of which Hartmann had almost certainly acquired from his mentor, the conductor Hermann Scherchen - Scherchen had heard it while interned in Russia during World War 1, and had published his own translation and arrangement in Berlin, for use by the choirs he was then conducting. In Russian it appears to have originated as a song of mourning for the victims of the 1905 Revolution, which explains its appearance in Shostakovich's 11th Symphony, op. 103 (1957), whose subject is the same traumatic episode. It is also likely that Hartmann knew a well-known 78 rpm recording of ''Unsterbliche Opfer'': it was made by the violinist Eduart Soermus〔available on CD Brüder, zur Sonne, zur Freiheit - Arbeitermusik in der Weimarer Republik in Originalaufnahmen. Dortmund, Edition Pläne nr. 88775〕 who came originally from Tartu in Estonia, then under Russian domination. Soermus was known in Germany, between the Wars, as der rote Geiger, the Red Violinist, because of his left-wing links and his association with the labour movement. Eduart Soermus gave regular workers and children’s concerts in Germany and was notoriously arrested on at least one such occasion.
Hartmann said in a letter to Scherchen that the structure of ''Concerto funebre'' was designed to reflect:
The intellectual and spiritual hopelessness of the period ... are contrasted with an expression of hope in the two chorales in the beginning and at the end. The opening Chorale is sustained for the most part by the solo voice ...〔Quoted in liner notes to Orfeo CD C718 071 B, trans. Stewart Spencer〕

It was premiered at St. Gallen, Switzerland in the Grosser Saal of the Tonhalle on Thursday 29 February 1940 by the St. Gallen Chamber Orchestra under the direction of Ernst Klug; the soloist was the violinist Karl Neracher.〔Liner notes to Hyperion CDA67547.〕 Despite the difficulties of wartime travel, the composer managed to obtain permission to travel from Munich and be present.
Hartmann's later (minimal) revision was first performed at Braunschweig on 12 November 1959, conducted by Heinz Zeebe. The soloist at that performance was Wolfgang Schneiderhan, one of the work's strongest advocates: a later performance survives on record (Orfeo label). The first recording was made by the Swiss violinist Ulrich Lehmann with the Zurich Chamber Orchestra conducted by Edmond de Stoutz (Amadeo label). Other soloists who have taken the work into their repertoire and made recordings include André Gertler, Michael Erxleben, Isabelle Faust, Ida Haendel, Alina Ibragimova, Suyoen Kim, Susanne Lautenbacher, Gordan Nicolic, Theo Olof, Nilla Pierrou, Benjamin Schmid, Vladimir Spivakov and Thomas Zehetmair.
The piece bears a dedication (added only in 1959) to Hartmann's son, Richard P. Hartmann.
