Composer Index Affiliates Arthur Honegger In the 1920s, Honegger became part of the French group Les Six. Along with Poulenc and Milhaud, he is still treated seriously. Jazz and Le Sacre du printemps also get brought into this mix. Honegger developed slowly: many years passed before he found his mature style. Accordingly, we have a Ravel-like Prelude to "Aglavaine et Selysette" , the Stravinskian Mouvements symphoniques (including Pacific 231 and Rugby ), the jazzy cello concerto, and the flip piano concertino. We see this eclecticism all at one go in the oratorio Le Roi David (1921), still one of his most popular works. Here Bach rubs shoulders with Stravinsky, Ravel, and even Massenet. It took Honegger some time to assimilate these strands. Les Six were never all that close artistically and soon broke up into individual careers, although Honegger remained friendly with Poulenc and Milhaud. In particular, Honegger rejected Satie and strove after high seriousness in a way alien to the rest of the group. Where others were epigrammatic, favoring the short, direct, jewel-like statement, he was expansive. He began a long association with Paul Claudel and got caught up in the twentieth-century Christian revival in France. This culminates in his masterpiece

Arthur HONEGGER (1892 Le Havre - 1955 Paris) Arthur Honegger fait partie des compositeurs majeurs du XXe siècle. De nationalité suisse, mais né en France et ayant essentiellement vécu à Paris, il est au croisement des influences françaises et germaniques. Membre du fameux Groupe des Six en compagnie de Poulenc et Milhaud, son art se caractérise par un grand sens de l'architecture qui lui permet de mêler tous les langages et les techniques musicales de son époque. Sa musique est au service d'une conception humaniste en phase avec les grandes questions du XXe siècle. Arthur Honegger est né le 10 mars 1892 au Havre ; il est et restera néanmoins de nationalité suisse toute sa vie, puisque ses parents sont helvétiques et de religion protestante ; son père s'est installé au Havre où il pratique le commerce du café. Le jeune Arthur n'a rien d'un enfant prodige, mais la musique fait parti du cadre familial. Il apprend le violon, tandis que sa mère joue du piano; l'ensemble s'accroît parfois d'un ami d'Arthur, également violoniste. Comme les partitions pour deux violons et piano sont assez réduites, l'adolescent est amené à composer pour cette formation des essais malhabiles. Il se lance aussi dans l'écriture d'un opéra et d'un oratorio. Bach et Beethoven sont alors ses deux idoles. En 1918, Honegger reçoit la commande d'une partition pour un ballet-pantomime, Le Dit des Jeux du monde sur un poème de Paul Méral et avec des décors et costumes de Guy Fauconnet. La création a lieu le 2 décembre 1918 au Vieux-Colombier et suscite un scandale qui assure au musicien une certaine célébrité. En janvier 1920 a lieu la fameuse naissance du Groupe des Six : pour faire connaître les jeunes compositeurs, on organise chez Darius Milhaud une soirée musicale regroupant Louis Durey, Georges Auric, Germaine Tailleferre, Francis Poulenc, Arthur Honegger et Darius Milhaud, en compagnie de Jean Cocteau.

20. Arthur Honegger Was A Composer Born In Le Havre On March 10, 1892 A) arthur honegger was a composer born in Le Havre on March 10, 1892. While still at a young age, he was sent to the Zurich Conservatory by his father. http://www.easternx.com/honegger.htm

The Library Resource Page for this project Arthur Honegger A) Arthur Honegger was a composer born in Le Havre on March 10, 1892. While still at a young age, he was sent to the Zurich Conservatory by his father. While at the conservatory he studied violin, conducting, and harmony under Freidrich Hegan, who was, among his many talents, a very distinguished musician. With Honegger under his instruction, Hegan immediately recognized the massive potential of the young man. After spending a few years in Switzerland from1914-1915, Honegger began the composition of his final series of orchestral works. Along with being a noted lecturer, conductor, and accompanist, he was also a member of Les Six which was a group of composers who were against Romantic music. Three years before his death in 1955, Honegger finished The Christmas Cantata in 1952. C) Neo-classicism is a 20 th century style of composing brought by the reintroduction of balanced forms and clearly perceived thematic processes of earlier styles to replace the over-exaggerated gesticulation and absence of form of the late Romanticism. A neo-classicist is prone to reject the structural tonal system found in true classical music and instead use expanded tonality, modality, or atonality. Just the term "neo" itself implies a deviation from the traits of true classical music. The whole idea of neo-classicism was a direct result of anti-romanticism in an attempt to refine and control expressionism. Neo-Classicism is less known for its reinstitution of the technique of composers like Mozart and Haydn, but known more-so for its power in the manipulation of previous elements. The three schools of neo-classicism are those of Stravinsky, Shoenberg, and Hindemith.
