Hugo Hünerfürst

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hugo Hünerfürst (1862)

Hugo Raban Hünerfürst (born February 22, 1827 in Reichenbach im Vogtland , † April 17, 1867 in Dresden ) was a German composer , violinist , conductor and Kapellmeister . As music director, he achieved great popularity, especially in Dresden and Rostock ; in Dresden he was described as an “energetic innovator of concert life”. His friendship with the Waltz King Johann Strauss (1825–1899) and various publications of an anecdote about the composer Richard Wagner ensured further fame (1813–1883), who referred to him in 1863 as "Prince of the Chickens".

Hugo Hünerfürst was born in Reichenbach in Vogtland in 1827 as the third child of the cantor August Willhelm Hünerfürst (1794–1879) and his wife Johanne Rosine, née Pabst. The father, who came from Neukirchen bei Borna , studied theology and music in Leipzig from 1812 to 1818 and in the meantime also worked as a violinist at the Leipzig Gewandhaus . Musically shaped in this way, Hugo Hünerfürst was accepted on April 2, 1843 as one of the first students at the Leipzig Conservatory founded by Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy (1809–1847) . Around 1848 he was the conductor of the "Gungl'schen Kapelle". The band, originally founded by the Austrian conductor Josef Gung'l (1809–1889), gave concerts once a week in Berlin's Kemper-Hof . 1851 Hünerfürst ran his own private orchestra, the most important of the five of the city of Berlin was one, which on 24 February 1851 during a benefit performance for the benefit of the damaged by a terrible fire Kroll chapel united into an instrumental orchestra and the local audience with a " great “mass effect.

In Dresden he worked from 1851 as music director of the music corps of the Dresden Communal Guard, which had been transformed into a civil band , and as a young musician surprised the local music world with sophisticated events that included symphony concerts and soirées musicales in addition to dance and light music . At that time he wrote numerous compositions which, actually intended for his own music corps, were soon adopted by other bands in their programs. His musicians were well trained, and he was strict with the audience, for example by simply interrupting the concerts if the background noise was too loud. He also conducted open-air concerts on the Brühlsche Terrasse and in the Lincke'schen Bad , which enjoyed great popularity.

Hünerfürst himself was very popular in Dresden and won over audiences not only as a conductor, but also as a violinist. He was considered an “excellent soloist” on the violin and viola, and his excellent sound memory was praised, also because he sometimes conducted without notes. The venues for his performances were sometimes so overcrowded that “hundreds couldn't find accommodation”. In the Lincke'schen Bad, where there was also a large concert hall and Hünerfürst had a concession as a conductor, he acted as a "train piece". Among other things, the Morgenblatt for educated readers reported in its edition of June 11, 1854:

“Hugo Hühnerfürst is the bouquet of the day; where he played [] the admission price is increased a little and his admirers read exactly in the Tagblatte where they can hear him today and where they cannot hear. You follow him and at the same time find the change in this loyalty. "

But he was also admired because with him a significantly higher quality of the concerts in the restaurants and other public venues of the city prevailed. He himself pushed for the increase in admission prices in order to raise the status of his musicians. Hünerfürst resolutely counteracted the overly exploitative or merciless business practices of the local landlords towards the musicians, which were quite common at the time and which were sometimes compared to "white slavery" .

But he also gave concerts outside the city of Dresden, for example in August 1853, when he made a guest appearance with 27 members of his orchestra in Prague on Sophieninsel and in Hraba's garden .

Friendship with Johann Strauss (son)

Johann Strauss: Postcard to Hugo Hünerfürst (1853)

In 1852 Hugo Hünerfürst became friends with the bandmaster and composer Johann Strauss (son) (1825–1899), who later became known as the “Waltz King” . When he was on a concert tour in Dresden that year, Hünerfürst introduced him to his circle of friends. The Strauss researcher Franz Mailer claims that the Zehner Polka , which was performed for the first time on November 24, 1852 in the Viennese dance hall Zum Sperl , was dedicated to this. On the title page of the work, which has also appeared in print, there is a dedication: “Zehner-Polka, composed in honor of a society of 10 people in Dresden, and dedicated to them in friendship”, but Mailer's view is that it is about the Circle of Friends Hünerfürst, meanwhile refuted.

Strauss (son), however, entrusted “his friend” Hugo Hünerfürst with the instrumentation of his Annen-Polka op. 117, as he was not satisfied with the results so far. Hünerfürst created a very delicate and transparent instrumentation of this polka, for which Strauss thanked profusely. Hünerfürst's score of the Annen-Polka was sent by him to Vienna and Strauss' publisher Carl Haslinger published it under the name of Strauss (son) and based on it published numerous arrangements.

In the following year, Hünerfürst composed his waltz “Souvenir de Strauss à Dresde”, in which he was inspired by Strauss waltz melodies.

The 27-year-old Strauss himself described the stays in Dresden and the friendship with Hünerfürst as the "happiest time of my life".

This friendship between men and musicians continued later; so Johann Strauss and Hugo Hünerfürst continued to be in correspondence. A postcard that Strauss had sent to Hünerfürst in 1853 and in which he jokingly targets the cabs of the transport company “Phönix”, which were unpopular in Vienna at the time, has been preserved in the Vienna Vienna Library . In another letter to Hünerfürst, Strauss reported from Pavlovsk near St. Petersburg , where he gave guest performances every summer from 1856 to 1865: “Now I have to rush to my poetic love”, by which the Russian composer Olga Wassiljewna Smirnitskaja (1813–1920) meant was. In January 1857, the Dresdner Nachrichten reported that Strauss had commissioned Hünerfürst to hire musicians for the next summer season in Saint Petersburg .

Change to Rostock

The Rostock City Theater, which burned down in 1880

In 1858, Hugo Hünerfürst was the designated candidate for the new position of music director in Gera . Probably on the recommendation of the Dresden Kreuzkantor Julius Otto (1804–1877), Hünerfürst went to Rostock that year , where he immediately worked as city music director . Before that, however, he had to prevail against twelve other applicants and was elected by the city council on October 4, 1858.

At the time, people in Dresden deeply regretted Hünerfürst's upcoming move to Rostock. The renowned Dresden music critic Heinrich Mannstein (1806–1872) even feared “an immediate step backwards and subsequent decline in local concert music”. One of Hugo Hünerfürst's last concerts in Dresden took place on October 15, 1858 in the Hotel de Saxe , where he performed together with the pianist Marie Wieck (1832–1916, half-sister of Clara Schumann ) and the Polish violinist Henryk Wieniawski (1835– 1880) occurred. He gave his farewell concert a few days later on October 26, 1858 in the "packed" Lincke'schen Bad. Hünerfürst's music corps in Dresden was then taken over by Hermann Mannsfeldt (1833-1892).

From December 29, 1858, Hünerfürst was officially appointed as city music director in Rostock. He was also highly valued on the Mecklenburg coast. When the “II. Mecklenburg Music Festival ”took place, Hünerfürst acted as festival conductor alongside the Schwerin court conductor Georg Alois Schmitt (1827–1902). In addition, in his role as Rostock City Music Director, he was a member of the seven-person board of the association that organized the festival. From 1862 he was also director of the Rostock city theater.

"Prince of the Chickens"

The tenor Josef Tichatschek (1863)

He was aware that Hünerfürst's name sometimes caused amusement and he took it with humor. Even the composer Hans von Bülow (1830-1894), who among other things stayed in Dresden in August 1854, called him in a letter to the composer Alexander Ritter (1833-1896) "Prince des Poulets" (German: Prince of the Chickens) as well in a letter dated December 13, 1857 to the composer Felix Draeseke (1835–1913) with a benevolent background "le prince des poules". The famous composer Richard Wagner (1813–1883) also found joy in it. When Wagner's opera Lohengrin was to be performed in the small and financially not exactly lavish city theater in Rostock in 1863 , Hünerfürst asked the well-known tenor Josef Tichatschek (1807–1886), a friend of his, for a reduction in the performance fees. Tichatschek, who was to make a guest appearance in Rostock and also take on the title role, wrote to Wagner, among other things, that only his guest appearance would enable the opera to be performed in Rostock. Wagner, who was in Budapest and was obviously in a good mood due to a successful performance the day before at the Pest National Theater, finally approved this with the somewhat coarse humorous verse:

The prince of the chickens and the roosters,
the knight of noble singing swans,
I give Lohengrin as raw material
for the performance in Rostock.
Not pampered with a fee,
a poor devil always,
to Germany's honor it be paid to me
what does not appear on the screen.
I'll do it for my Tichatschek;
that's why I put the pegs back:
otherwise I say, 'because it just happened' here ',
probably' Bassama teremtete '.
(Pest, Jul 24, 63)

According to another anecdote, however, a few years earlier, Hünerfürst had already been described by Tichatschek himself in a funny group as the “Prince of the Chickens” and replied with a laugh: “Anyone who has a name like mine must be prepared for jokes. It just depends who does it. One likes to put up with a Joseph Tichatschek. "

In the end, Tichatschek did not only appear in the Lohengrin at this guest appearance in Rostock . He also appeared in performances such as Ferdinand Hérolds (1791–1833) opera Zampa and in the opera La Juive by Jacques Fromental Halévy (1799–1862). Another well-known guest in Rostock in 1864 was the famous pianist Clara Schumann (1819–1896), who took part in Hünerfürst's first subscription concert.

death

Hugo Hünerfürst's grave at the Trinity Cemetery in Dresden (2021)

Due to health reasons, Hugo Hünerfürst finally had to give up his office in Rostock and on June 6, 1866, to request his dismissal. Previously ailing for a long time, in the end he was mostly only represented by the Potsdam violinist Adolph Fiering, so that the Rostock orchestra soon presented itself in a poor condition, even considered "overgrown". Hünerfürst returned to Dresden with his family the following year, where he died of a stroke just three days after his arrival on April 17, 1867 at the age of only forty .

The not forgotten and still very popular musician was buried three days later at the Trinitatisfriedhof in Dresden-Johannstadt, with great sympathy from the Dresden residents . The funeral procession that began at Hünerfürst's house at Mathildenstrasse 7 was accompanied by his former music corps, which was now led by the city's music director Moritz Erdmann Puffholdt (1827–1890) and played Beethoven's funeral march, among other things . Several hundred mourners were waiting in and around the cemetery. Pastor Fischer gave the eulogy.

His widow Julie Friederike Hünerfürst (1817–1884), née Sommer, whose first marriage was to the Dresden wine merchant, innkeeper and patron Johann Gottfried Dauch (1816–1854), later lived with their children from their first marriage for several years at Falkenstrasse 4 in Dresden's Seevorstadt district - an address that is also associated with the renowned writer Karl May (1842–1912). (See also: Hugo Hünerfürst in the literature .) Even if his tombstone disappeared a long time ago, the grave site can still be found today in Section 1A of the Trinity cemetery. It is still owned by the family and is now home to the tomb of a descendant of his stepdaughter Ida Dauch (1846–1918).

Hünerfürst's compositions remained part of the program of his former band after he left Dresden. However, his successors as the conductor and conductor of the band were never able to repeat its success. Before the chapel was taken over in 1867 by Puffholdt, she was in 1861 under the direction of from Jülich originating Karl Witting come (1823-1907), as Mannsfeldt, the first strong criticism got to Chemnitz moved to work as a city of music director. Witting handed the ensemble over to his concertmaster H. Strauss as early as 1865 . For a while, Puffholdt performed under the name of the Stadtmusikchor (formerly Witting'sches Chor) . 1870 Dresdner Gewerbeverein on the built Ostra-Allee , the commercial building , one of which also includes a concert hall, which was opened with the assistance of the City Music Choir under Puffholdt. This became the headquarters of the Gewerbehaus chapel founded the following year, today's Dresden Philharmonic . The already well-known Hermann Mannsfeldt became the first music director here, and he poached a large part of the Puffholdt orchestra . Moritz Erdmann Puffholdt dissolved the band and his contract as town music director in 1873 due to economic difficulties.

Similar difficulties were encountered in Rostock after Hünerfürst's departure. In 1867 Karl Müller-Berghaus (1829–1907) became city music director, but was never really able to assert himself there and finally succeeded Hermann Mannsfeldt as city music director in Chemnitz two years later. From 1872 there was no more city music director in Rostock.

Hugo Hünerfürst in literature

Historical illustration for the novel The Way to Happiness (1886)

The little anecdote about Richard Wagner's 1863 verse has been published many times up to the present day. One of the first publications was a print in the August 24, 1863 edition of the Innsbrucker Nachrichten . And in July 1907 it was also published in the evening edition of the Leipziger Tageblatt on the occasion of Josef Tichatschek's 100th birthday.

Wagner and Tichatschek were not the only ones who liked his strange surname. Already at the end of 1858, the Dresden company JB Trautmann brought out a New Year's card on which a fat domestic cock standing on a drum was depicted, holding a sheet of music with the title “Heimathklänge” in his claw. At the end of the 1880s, the writer Karl May also created a small literary monument for him in his great serial novel Der Weg zum Glück . Here he had two of his protagonists talked about Hünerfürst and music in a short dialogue:

"'[...] But now. I cannot deny that. That means: a fizzlifazzlo of chicken sausage. It's such a snappy title that you should never think of it as possible! A fizzlifazzlo! What kind of thing is that! And I've never heard of chicken sausage either! '
'Just pronounce it correctly, dear Sepp! It is called: A pizzicato from Hühnerfürst; Hühnerfürst is a composer from Dresden. And a pizzicato is a piece that is not played with the violin bow, but rather strummed with the finger. '
'When ten times! Why use these strange words! You could print: A Klimperei instead of a Fizzlifazzli. [...] '"

- Karl May : The way to happiness

Hünerfürst is mentioned in John Brinckman's (1814–1870) seafaring novel Von anno Toback und dat oll Ihrgistern . Since Brinckman wrote the novel in Low German , he is referred to here as music director Hohnefürst . The actor Emil Thomas (1836–1904) also mentions 40 years of acting as an actor in his memoirs, published in 1895 . Memories from my life a visit to a concert on the Brühlsche Terrasse, where Hünerfürst “let his wonderful tunes sound”.

Several photographs and daguerreotypes by Hugo Hünerfürst have been preserved, among others in the Hermann Krone Collection of the TU Dresden and in the Dresden City Museum .
