[Joachim, Joseph. (1831-1907)] Hauptmann, Moritz. (1792 - 1868). Autograph Musical Manuscript of the 'Joachim Canon': "O! - O! - Och - im Canon." . Undated autograph manuscript, presumably October 1845, a 4-voice canon in F Major, notated in brown ink on twelve staves, with a number of alterations in the texts visible. 1 page, 25.5 x 33 cm, 12-stave paper. Verso features an additional four measures on the bass notes G-A-D-E, a reference to the Danish composer Niels W. Gade (1817-1890), a friend of Mendelssohn and Schumann from Leipzig in the 1840s, and the dedicatee of a short piano piece by Schumann based on the same pattern.
The present manuscript is a draft of the canon written by Hauptmann for his prized student, Joseph Joachim - then, only 14 yeard old - and relates to a similar copy (“Von Ihrem Sie herzlich liebendem M Hauptmann;” transposed, dated 12 October, 1845) in Moser’s biography: Andreas Moser, Joseph Joachim: Ein Lebensbild, (2 vols.), Berlin: Verlag der Deutschen Brahms-Gesellschaft, vol. 1: 1908, opp. p. 69. The final version with the words:
Joachim Canon singen wir
dass du gebst fort von hier
O! das ist sehr schlimm.
Joachim Canon singen wir
bist du bald wieder hier
O! dann ist es nicht so schlimm.
The German music theorist, teacher and composer Moritz Hauptmann studied composition under Grosse and Francesco Morlacchi, (the rival of Carl Maria von Weber) and completed his education as a violinist and composer under Louis Spohr. In 1842, Hauptmann became Kantor of the Thomanerchor at St. Thomas Church, Leipzig (a post made famous by Johann Sebastian Bach) as well as professor of music theory at the newly founded conservatoire at the invitation of Felix Mendelssohn. His own pupils included Joseph Joachim, Ferdinand David, Friedrich Burgmüller, Friedrich Kiel, Ernst Naumann, Oscar Paul, Isidor Seiss and others.
