Eugen Suchon“
(1908 - 1993)
The composer Eugen Suchon“ (pronouced EH-oo-gen
SOO-hchawnyah (ch as in Bach-soft n as in onion) ranks
dominantly chamber and orchestral works, eg. the
song cycle for soprano and orchestra or piano, Ad
among the most prominent representatives of
Astra, the mixed choir cycle On Man, Poeme Macabre
contemporary Slovak music. Named National Artist,
for violin and piano, Contemplations for narrator and
the composer received the fourfold Laureate of the
piano, Six Compositions for Strings, Rhapsodic Suite
State Prize, and won many distinctions and awards both for piano and orchestra, and Symphonic Fantasy on Bin Czechoslovakia and abroad. His compositions
A-C-H for organ, string orchestra and percussion. The
acquainted the European musical scene with the typical cycle for piano, Kaleidescope, deserves special attenpsychological world of the Slovak man and national
tion since this work is performed also by piano, string
ethics on a high artistic level.
orchestra and percussion.
Eugen Suchon“ was born on September 25, 1908, in
Pezinok to an organist\s family, a musical milieu which
fostered his talents. At twelve (1920), he started to
study piano at the Bratislava School of Music under the
accomplished pianist, composer and teacher Frico
Kafenda. From 1927-1931, he continued his studies at
the newly established Academy of Music in Bratislava
under the same professor. In 1931, Sonata in A flat for
Violin and Piano and String Quartet completed his
piano and composition studies. Suchon“ completed the
Academy which corresponded to Conservatory first as
a piano student and later as a student of conducting.
The European-standard professor, Frico Kafenda,
instilled in him such a thorough education in piano performance and composition that his further two years of
study at the Masters School of the Prague Conservatory
under Vâte“slav Nova;k only underlined the qualities he
developed under his Bratislava teacher.
Suchon“ began teaching music theory at the Academy of
Music and Drama in Bratislava, was appointed secretary, and in 1948, became professor of composition.
His pre-war works became the cornerstone of the new
Slovak musical culture, especially the cycle of male
choral songs, Balladic Suite, Sonatina for Violin and
Piano, Overture to King Svatopluk, and especially his
monumental cantata, the Psalm of Sub-Carpathian
Land. From 1948-1960, Eugen Suchon“ was the professor and head of the Department of Music Education at
the Teacher Training College in Bratislava. The
numerous works of this period are dominated by the
Fantasies for Violin and Orchestra and the symphonic
suite for orchestra, Metamorphoses. Between 19521959, Suchon“ had worked on his second historical
opera, King Svatopluk, representing the monumental
dramatic fresco from the period of the Great Moravian
Empire. Its premiere took place in Bratislava, Prague
and Kos“ice in 1960.
Suchon“ is a pensive composer driven by a powerful
creative passion. He lives by Michelangelo\s principle
that it is necessary ||to exert the greatest effort to work
and study very hard in order to make the work, created
with painstaking labour, look as if it were created
quickly, without any effort, and with the greatest of
ease.\\ Suchon\s work has become a symbol of outstanding quality in Slovak music. ||His principle is to
complete each composition in such a way that there
would be neither a missing note nor one to spare.\\
(Jozef Krasa;nek) His work ranges from a transition
from late romantic chromatism to his own typical
modality influenced by characteristic features of old
Slovak folksongs to his later affinity to chromatism.
