Noëlli, Georg(b ?Amsterdam, 1727; d Ludwigslust, Mecklenburg, 24 Sept 1789). Portuguese composer and pantaleonist. He studied the pantaleon with its inventor, Hebenstreit, counterpoint with Geminiani and with Martini at Bologna, and composition with Hasse at Dresden. During April and May 1752 and September 1757 a ‘Mr Noel(l)’ was listed as a composer and performer on the ‘cymbalo’ at the New Haymarket Theatre in London where, according to Schilling, he became a friend of Handel. In 1765 he was court musician at Brunswick, and in 1766, according to Pohl, a ‘Noel, Spieler des Pantaleon’ appeared again in London. In 1775 he met C.P.E. Bach at Hamburg. From 1776 until his death he was Cammermusikus and pantaleonist to Duke Frederick of Mecklenburg-Schwerin at Ludwigslust, where he performed on a new pantaleon purchased for him and played the violin, viola and cello in the chamber orchestra. As a pantaleon virtuoso, he made tours to France and Italy in 1782 and to Sweden and Denmark in 1778–9, turning down a lucrative offer from the Swedish court to remain there. In 1786 he travelled to Münster in Westphalia; he made his last visit to Hamburg in 1789. Gerber called him ‘the greatest and almost only master’ of the pantaleon; his improvisational ability was considered by his contemporaries comparable to that of W.F. Bach. Of his compositions a Pastorella and Sonata in C for harpsichord, violin and continuo survive in manuscript (D-SWl). Breitkopf published a sinfonia in Musikalisches Magazin in Sonaten, Sinfonien, Trios und änderen Stücken für das Klavier bestehend, vii (Leipzig, 1765); other sinfonias, quartets and trios, mentioned by Gerber, are lost.

Indonesian composer. Self-taught as a composer, his career started when he began creating music for shows by Teater Kecil (‘Small Theatre’), a group led by his brother, the director Arifin C. Noer. He has become one of the foremost composers of music for the theatre in Indonesia. In 1979 Noer wrote the music for the film Yuyun Pasien Rumah Sakit Jiwa (‘Yuyun, a Patient in a Mental Hospital’) and in 1982 won the Citra trophy at the Indonesian Film Festival for Serangan Fajar (‘The Dawn Attack’); both films were directed by his brother. Noer's theatre compositions from the 1980s and 90s often feature traditional percussion instruments. His works aim to blend a Western musical aesthetic with traditional music, especially that of his native region of Cirebon. The most striking example of this is the group of pieces Teknotarling (1994), in which Noer collaborated with traditional musicians from Cirebon who play Tarling music, itself an amalgam of Western and traditional Cirebon music deriving its name from guitar and suling (bamboo flute); he added an electronic keyboard to the ensemble. Noer's works are strongly influenced by the Islamic culture of Cirebon. FRANKI RADEN Noetel, Konrad Friedrich(b Posen [now Poznań], 30 Oct 1903; d Berlin, 9 April 1947). German composer. He studied engineering and law, and began musical training in 1925, first in Hanover and from 1927 in Königsberg. Most important among his studies were those with Hindemith during the early 1930s at the Berlin Hochschule, where he taught from 1936 until his death. Noetel remained in Germany during the war years, but only after the overthrow of the Nazi regime was he made professor. His predilection for polyphony and his traditional approach to form recall, respectively, Reger and Brahms, but from a tonal standpoint his music shows a distinct affinity with and indebtedness to Hindemith. Noetel’s style, however, has an individuality in which a degree of late Romantic expressiveness plays a part. WORKS(selective list)
