حياته

عازف بيانو محترم ومكرم وعازف تشيللو ومايسترو ومدرس في فيينا وجد شميت ايضا الوقت ليكتب بعض الأعمال المبهرة واسعة النطاق. هذه الاعمال دائما تعكس الاثر المجري لانه كان من اسرة المانية تتحدث المجرية وايضا تعكس انجاز رومانسي-كلاسيكي وفي الاعمال الرائعة للارغن تعكس تأثير يوهان سباستيان باخ. لم تكن حياة شميت سهلة فكان يحارب ضد الصحة المعتلة طوال حياته وزوجته الاولى المريضة عقليا قلتها النازيون وابنته خلد ذكراها في السمفونية رقم 4 (والاخيرة) ماتت بعد وقت قصير من الميلاد. كانت سمفونياته هي التي حققت له اكبر شهرة رغم ان اوبراه Notre Dame وهي إنترميتزو أوركسترالي باسلوب غجري كانت ايضا نجاحا دوليا.


The Book with Seven Seals

Symphonies

  • Symphony No. 1 in E major.
    Written in 1896 at age 22. The scherzo of this precociously accomplished symphony (which shows a mature absorption of Bruckner and Richard Strauss) is especially noteworthy, while Schmidt demonstrates his contrapuntal skills in the Finale.
  • Symphony No. 2 in E flat major.
    Written in 1913 in a style reminiscent of Strauss and Reger, with homage to the grandiosity of Bruckner. This is Schmidt's longest symphony in terms of duration and employs a huge orchestra. The central movement (of three) is a highly ingenious set of variations, which are grouped to suggest the characters of slow movement and scherzo. The complex scoring of this magnificent symphony renders it a considerable challenge for most orchestras.
  • Symphony No. 3 in A major.
    A sunny, melodic work in the Schubert vein (although its lyricism and superb orchestration do much to conceal the fact that it is one of the composer's most harmonically advanced works). Winner of the Austrian section of the 1928 International Columbia Graphophone Competition, it enjoyed some popularity at the time (1928).
  • Symphony No. 4 in C major.
    Written in 1933, this is the best-known work of his entire oeuvre. The composer called it "A requiem for my daughter". It begins with a long 23-bar melody on an unaccompanied solo trumpet (which returns at the symphony's close, "transfigured" by all that has intervened). The Adagio is an immense ABA ternary structure. The first A is an expansive threnody on solo cello (Schmidt's own instrument) whose seamless lyricism predates Strauss's Metamorphosen by more than a decade (its theme is later adjusted to form the scherzo of the symphony); the B section is an equally expansive funeral march (deliberately referencing Beethoven's Eroica in its texture) whose dramatic climax is marked by an orchestral crescendo culminating in a gong and cymbal crash (again, a clear allusion to similar climaxes in the later symphonies of Bruckner, and followed by what Harold Truscott has brilliantly described as a "reverse climax", leading back to a repeat of the A section).
