	Honegger, Arthur (1892 - 1955) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Swiss by nationality, Arthur Honegger was born and died in France, and was for a time associated with the group of Paris composers known as Les Six, although they were not bound together by ideals such as those of the Five in 19th century Russia.
		Honegger was a prolific composer in many genres, writing for the theatre and concert hall, as well as for the cinema.
		Honegger's stage oratorio Jeanne d'Arc au bûcher (Joan of Arc at the Stake), completed in 1935, using a text by Paul Claudel, is an equally moving work, powerful in its use of the human voice, whether in speech or song.

	Classical Net Review - Honegger - Film Music
		Honegger's arrived at his method of movie scoring by practical experience from the early days of sound, where the recording equipment couldn't capture orchestral depth and thus everything sounded cramped and muddy.
		Honegger invests the double suicide of the Archduke and his mistress with both irony at the frivolity of their lives and with pathos toward their deaths.
		Honegger's score for Regain is one of his best, although in its film incarnation it was manhandled, snipped, and removed with no regard for the composer's input.

	Biographie (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		The life of Arthur Honegger, on the face of it, seems to have been fairly calm and straightforward: he lived in Paris, studied at the Conservatoire, travelled as his career required it, lived comfortably from his work, and had a private life free from scandal...
		Yes, Arthur Honegger is a complex individual, impossible to label, but whose music, nevertheless, is immediately recognisable: the work of a craftsman in his trade, who federates the diversity of his talents with an artistic personality that is both strong and powerful.
		Arthur Honegger was born on the 10th of March, 1892, in Le Havre; he maintained his Swiss nationality all his life, as his parents were Helvetian and protestants; his father settled in Le Havre where he traded in coffee.

	Gitta Honegger & JJ Long
		Honegger says he wrote the memoir as a record of his victory over that death and the attempts at metaphorical suffocation by his upbringing in particular, and Austrian society in general.
		Honegger says he "came between couples", which suggests one conclusion, but what she means is that both sexes were drawn into an ambiguous relationship with the writer.
		Whereas Honegger bizarrely accuses Bernhard of being a solipsist - someone for whom the world is merely a projection of their own mind - Long stresses the "narrative strategies" and "hermeneutic sequences" employed to undermine such narrow interpretations of Bernhard's monological prose.

	Thomas Bernhard - Gitta Honegger
		Honegger strikes a good balance here, and given the dearth of other information about the author available in English Thomas Bernhard is a welcome study.
		Honegger actually writes of Bernhard's plays that: "None of them was a popular success." Given that he wrote seventeen full-length plays, and never seemed to have much trouble getting them produced this seems...
		Honegger compresses a great deal into this book, offering a solid survey of this very complex character, his challenging art, and the many games he played with the public (and with his friends).

		(Honegger needed to be alone to compose.) They did so until the last year of his life when he was too ill to manage on his own (and in that year he produced not a single note of music.) Clearly both women were hurt.
		Honegger could have claimed immunity and settled in Switzerland for the duration; instead he chose loyalty to Paris and shared in the depravations of the Occupation earning the undying affection of its people.
		Halbreich goes on to discuss the tug between Honegger's Swiss and French backgrounds and in a revealing analytical table demonstrates that many commissions and the majority of Honegger's premieres came from, and were held in Switzerland.

	Honegger: Concerto da Camera (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Honegger was an activist on behalf of his fellow composers, often decrying in print the treatment (or, in his view, the mistreatment) of modern music.
		Starting in the Twenties, and continuing until his death, he wrote and spoke of the difficulties of earning a living, of satisfying a public enamored with the past, and of the demands placed by the practicalities of too-short rehearsals under tyrannic conductors.
		In 1947, while on a tour of the United States, Honegger suffered his first bout of the angina that would eventually end his career.

		The Swiss born composer, Arthur Honegger, was for a time associated with the group of Paris composers known as Les Six (with Poulenc, Milhaud, Auric, Durey and Tailleferre).
		Honegger made some impression with his three symphonic movements, the first being the masterful "Pacific 231" a portrait of a steam engine, followed by "Rugby", and a third with the simple title "Mouvement symphonique".
		The dramatic psalm "Le Roi David", completed in 1921, is an impressive work, originally intended for theatre in the open, but transferred effectively to the concert-hall as an oratorio.
