Symphony No. 1 in D minor for Large Orchestra and American Rhapsody. Dohnányi’s First Symphony was written just three years or so after the First Piano Concerto and here we are beginning to be aware of a more individual style developing. He scores the orchestra adroitly. Unlike the First Piano Concerto it is less derivative; although, like that work, it is portentous and intense and is a marathon indulgence, sprawling over almost an hour. It begins in the manner of Bruckner and its opening movement spreads over a glut of moods from no-nonsense harshness and martial heroics through eerie and mysterious stuff to intimate sentimentality visiting folk material on the way and indulging in fist-shaking bombast towards its end. The middle movements impress most. The second movement (of five) is clever and lush, beginning with feather-light balletic music that would not have disgraced Tchaikovsky. Later there are martial rumblings again, an eerie episode and a rather appealing consolatory melody. The writing for divided strings impresses. There follows a short Scherzo, presto that is mercurial in character and not unlike Berlioz or Liszt. A brief Intermezzo is effectively a miniature rhapsody for solo viola supported by a reduced orchestra of strings, oboes and bassoons. The Finale brings back the bombast and includes a set of variations: nobly heroic, then tranquil. It also embraces a sort of fanfare and a stately brass chorale. There is a vigorous fugue and the whole work ends blazingly.
Dohnányi spent the last years of his life in America where he had fled unacceptable Nazi and communist regimes in his native Hungary and in Austria. He was appointed as a piano professor and composer-in-residence at Florida State University in Tallahassee in 1949 and four years later composed his last work for orchestra – his American Rhapsody which is reminiscent of Dvořák’s New World Symphony in that there are elements that suggest a homesickness for his beloved Hungary. Included are references to American folk tunes: Turkey in the Straw, On Top of Old Smokey and I Am a Poor Wayfaring Stranger.
