Fryklöf, Harald (Leonard)

(b Uppsala, 14 Sept 1882; d Stockholm, 11 March 1919). Swedish composer, organist and teacher. He studied the organ, counterpoint and composition with Lindegren at the Swedish Royal Academy of Music, the piano with Andersson (1904–10) and orchestration with Scharwenka in Berlin (1905). In 1908 he was appointed organist of the Stockholm Storkyrka and teacher of harmony at the conservatory. A self-critical composer, he was particularly concerned with form; his music frequently has a Regerian richness of harmony. The most imaginative of his compositions is the Sonata alla leggenda for violin and piano. He published a study, Harmonisering av koraler i dur och moll jämte kyrkotonarterna (Stockholm, 1916).

ROLF HAGLUND

Fryklund, (Lars Axel) Daniel

(b Västerås, 4 May 1879; d Hälsingborg, 25 Aug 1965). Swedish musicologist and collector. He studied Romance languages at Uppsala University, where he took the doctorate in 1907, and was a music pupil of I.E. Hedenblad and L.J. Zetterqvist. Subsequently he taught French in schools in Sundsvall (1910–21) and Hälsingborg (1921–44). He devoted himself to a scrupulous study of the history and etymology of various instruments, but is best known for his unique music collection, the largest private collection of its kind in Sweden, now housed in the Musikmuseet and Statens Musikbibliotek (Stockholm) and the Helsingborg Stadsmuseum. It includes 900 instruments, books, posters and music editions, and 10,000 music manuscripts, autographs and letters. Of special interest are the Marseillaise collection of 3000 items, the correspondence of Fétis and the August Bournonville collection. A catalogue of this collection can be found in Collection Fryklund 1949 (Hälsingborg, 1949). Fryklund was elected an associate of the Swedish Royal Academy of Music in 1932.

LYNDESAY G. LANGWILL/VESLEMÖY HEINTZ

Fubini, Enrico

(b Turin, 1 Nov 1935). Italian musicologist, aesthetician and historian of ideas. He studied both philosophy and music at Turin University, where he graduated in philosophy in 1959. He later became professor of musical aesthetics, and has taught the history of modern and contemporary music at the university. He was appointed to the editorial boards of International Review of the Aesthetics and Sociology of Music (1970), Musica/Realtà (1980) and Revista Italiana di Musicologia (1992); in 1998 he became editor of Revista Italiana di Musicologia.

Fubini discusses music in a broad cultural context. He does not restrict himself to a narrow range of explicitly philosophical texts, but includes in his compilations and histories any documents which have a bearing upon the discussion of musical values at a given time. These synoptic writings give a perspective of continuity to the debates held in different periods of European musical history. His disciplinary approach, as a historian of ideas, is distinct both from that of a historical musicologist, who is most interested in whether a given debate influences the course of music history, and from that of an analytical philosopher, for whom questions about the identity and expressive qualities of music can be abstracted from any historical context and treated in general terms. His historicism is consistent with that of Benedetto Croce, who viewed all philosophical problems as historically situated, and in his aesthetic thought he accordingly places importance on detailed descriptions of the historical circumstances in which ideas arose.
