  JMM: The Journal of Music and Meaning - Siglind Bruhn - In the Arms of Lady Death
Gottfried von Einem, born in Berne, Switzerland in 1918 and since 1945 working in Salzburg and Vienna, spent the first half of his professional life under the influence of his admired teacher Boris Blacher, the second half under that of his indirect mentor, Mozart.
Einem builds the music for the prologue entirely from only four different pitches: E supplies the pedal that sustains the entire 33-measure passage in the lowest instruments (including the timpani); also, Magdalena temporarily adopts the E for those of her lines that are pronounced in Sprechstimme.
The point of departure, Gottfried von Einem seems to suggest, is the man Jesus; the goals are eternity beyond time and space as well as the fulfillment of light and love in the ineffable oneness that transcends all we know and understand.

 GMCD 7261 Stravinsky Von Einem Engel
Although von Einem’s reputation rests largely on his music for the stage - five ballet scores and seven operas — he also wrote around a dozen chamber works, all except one composed during the last 15 years of his life.
Born in Berne where his father was serving as military attaché at the Austrian embassy, Gottfried von Einem was educated in Austria, Germany and England and from his very earliest childhood was determined to pursue a career in music.
Von Einem’s blend of jazz, popular tunes, biting rhythms and occasional bursts of atonality, which some have described as “naïve and primitive”, is nowhere more vividly displayed than in the Sonata.

 Gottfried von Straßburg: Tristan (45-6148)
In the very elaborate prologue to his poem, Gottfried tells his readers that for the good of the world, but in particular for the group he calls «edele Herzen», he wants to tell the story of two lovers who suffered for love but also found great joy.
Gottfried’s style has a classical lucidity and purity, yet it is deliberately charged with double meanings.

 Austrian Nobility since World War One
The famous conductor Herbert von Karajan - an Austrian - told Austrian officials that he would not conduct concerts in Austria if he would not be allowed to use his "von" on posters - in my eyes a clear case of ignoring the aforementioned law.
As Austrian officials naturally were interested in Herbert von Karajan continuing to conduct in Austria, they found a brilliant solution: In Karajan's passport a note was made that his stage name was "von Karajan" - and the problem was solved.
His father was the very famous composer Gottfried von Einem and his mother was a born von Bismarck, a Prussian family.
