For more on his biography, including the controversy\nsurrounding the role he played in Stokowski’s transcriptions, the reader is\nreferred to our first volume (PASC 444).\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nIn Bach’s Toccata and Fugue in D minor, Cailliet seems intent on distancing\nhimself from the famous Stokowski version, at a couple points adding a\nbrass counterpoint over the arpeggios of the lower strings. The recording\ndates from Cailliet’s Hollywood days, and comes from the soundtrack of a\n1946 nature film short which presents a day in Bryce Canyon, Utah.\nJanssen’s orchestra plays with vigor, although with an occasionally scrappy\nensemble that would never be confused with Stokowski’s Philadelphians.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe orchestra in the following track, however, might well be confused with\nthe Philadelphia – appropriately so, as they were the same ensemble playing\nunder a nom-de-disque. Charles O’Connell was a conductor, arranger and\norganist in addition to being Victor’s Classical A\u0026amp;R Director, and led\nthe Philadelphia Orchestra on some of its 1936 cross-county tour dates.\nCailliet here expands the strings-and-continuo of Bach’s original to\ninclude winds and brass.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nEugene Ormandy was a champion of Cailliet’s transcriptions even while he\nwas still leading the Minneapolis Symphony. The third selection was\nCailliet’s first credit in the recording logs as an orchestrator, even\nthough the side remained unissued until the LP era. Ormandy continued his\nefforts on his behalf in Philadelphia, recording several of his\narrangements and commissioning Cailliet’s orchestration of Mussorgsky’s \u003cem\u003ePictures at an Exhibition\u003c\/em\u003e. The Prelude and Fugue in B minor was\nprobably recorded to follow up Ormandy’s recording of Cailliet’s\ntranscription of Bach’s Prelude and Fugue in F minor (one Volume 1), but\nit, too, was unpublished on 78 rpm.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe next two transcriptions feature works by Bach’s contemporaries.\nBuxtehude’s Organ Passacaglia in D minor has often been cited as an\ninspiration for Bach’s Passacaglia and Fugue in C minor. Cailliet\nemphasizes the connection by adding a preface stating the unadorned bass\nline. And at a time when Vivaldi was known almost exclusively for his\nConcerto Grosso in D minor in various modern arrangements, Cailliet sought\nto widen the composer’s renown with a full-orchestra version of one of his\nviolin double concertos.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nTaking leave of the Baroque era, Cailliet’s Debussy transcription was\nrecorded three times by Ormandy; this is his first. By contrast, Ormandy\nonly recorded the three Rachmaninoff preludes once, on a 10-inch LP. When\nthey were reissued as a filler on a later 12-inch disc, the Prelude in C\nsharp minor was omitted. (Could someone have felt it was too over-the-top?)\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nCailliet’s efforts were appreciated not only in Philadelphia. Arthur\nFiedler recorded several of his works with his Boston “Pops”, including the\nfamous Tchaikovsky song heard here and his “Pop! Goes the Weasel”\nVariations (on Volume 1). Our program ends with Fiedler’s recording of\nanother of Cailliet’s fantasies on a well-known tune, “Happy Birthday to\nYou”, a work which also inspired Stravinsky to write his \u003cem\u003eGreeting Prelude\u003c\/em\u003e.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMark Obert-Thorn\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_cover_thumbnail1_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_cover_thumbnail2_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_cover_download_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample1_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample2_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample3_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample4_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample5_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab1_sample6_s3_locationfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab2_labelfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5fFull Track Listing578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab2_typefb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5ftrack_listing578a9379d1e540bd96d26f03a79628d9tab2_contentfb55cd020f0643f08418183279e63a5f\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 20px;\"\u003eThe Music of Lucien Cailliet\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 20px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 17px;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTranscriber \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 17px;\"\u003e∙ \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 17px;\"\u003e\nArranger ∙ Composer\n\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 17px;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVolume Two\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e1. \u003cstrong\u003eBACH-CAILLIET: Toccata and Fugue in D minor, BWV 565 \u003c\/strong\u003e\n(9:06)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12px;\"\u003eRecorded in 1946 in Los Angeles\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12px;\"\u003eMatrix nos.: WJ-1001, WJ-1002-1-RE (Artist Records AR-1001\/2)\n\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2. \u003cstrong\u003eBACH-CAILLIET: Air from Suite No. 3 in D major, BWV 1068 \u003c\/strong\u003e\n(3:47)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12px;\"\u003eRecorded 5 May 1939 in the Academy of Music, Philadelphia\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12px;\"\u003eMatrix no.: CS 035849-1 (Victor 36233)\n\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3.\n\u003cstrong\u003e\nBACH-CAILLIET: Organ Prelude, “Herzlich tut mich verlangen”, BWV 727\u003c\/strong\u003e (2:47)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12px;\"\u003eRecorded 8 January 1935 in the Northrop Auditorium, Minneapolis\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12px;\"\u003eMatrix no.: BVE 87510 (Unissued on 78 rpm)\n\n\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4. \u003cstrong\u003eBACH-CAILLIET: Prelude and Fugue in B minor, BWV 544\u003c\/strong\u003e\n(8:46)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12px;\"\u003eRecorded 9 May 1938 in the Academy of Music, Philadelphia\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12px;\"\u003eMatrix nos.: CS 022374\/5 (Unissued on 78 rpm)\n\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e5.\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eBUXTEHUDE-CAILLIET: Passacaglia in D minor, BuxWV 161\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\n(6:54)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12px;\"\u003eFrom the NBC broadcast of 28 March 1937 from the Academy of Music,\nPhiladelphia (Previously unissued)\n\n\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\n\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVIVALDI-CAILLIET: Concerto for Two Violins in A minor, Op. 3, No. 8\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e (from L’estro armonico)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e6.
