Piano Master Competition March-April 1992 Israel the Arthur Rubinstein International Music Society THE SEVENTH INTERNATIONAL PIANO MASTER COMPETITION MARCH-APRIL 1992 ISRAEL THE ARTHUR RUBINSTEIN INTERNATIONAL MUSIC SOCIETY THE SEVENTH INTERNATIONAL PIANO MASTER COMPETITION MARCH-APRIL 1992 ISRAEL ARTHUR RUBINSTEIN’S ADDRESS AT THE PRIZE DISTRIBUTION CEREMONY — SEPTEMBER 1974, JERUSALEM Your Excellency, the President of Israel. Her Excellency, Mrs. GoldaMeir, my old friend and most admired woman in the world, spoke to you in Hebrew, apparently about me. I guessed from her voice, from the expression of her eyes, that she did speak too well about me. I felt that because she has in her heart a generosity which is unequalled; I cannot answer what she said, because I do not, unfortunately, understand Hebrew. I know only the Hebrew prayers as a little boy, and I never learned your new wonderful Hebrew language. I am very ashamed of it. So please pardon — excuse me please — if I answer in English. This Government: the President; Mrs. Golda Meir; Mr. Koi, Minister of Tourism — they have all taken to heart to make this competition for pianists in my name, which was a little bit too muchfor me to take. I was afraid of it, I thought it might be difficult — the country suffers so much; there are countries always ready to fight; it must be always ready to defend itself— it has so many things to face, so many more difficult than any country in the world just now, and yet, the pride of my heart is that it has never lost sight of culture, of music, of art, of love of life, of high spirit, of magnificent humanity. This is the pride of this country. This is one of the reasons why I love it so dearly, and so much, and so deeply. This competition was on the highest level of all the competitions at which I have ever been present. And I am old enough to say that I have been at very many. I must say it is a pride for Israel to have such a high level of pianists. My friend Bistritzky gave the name to this competition of “Master Pianist.” I was a little bit against that very high word” Master,” but I must admit it was rightly used. Indeed, all of them show that they are master pianists. I am very happy to be allowed to give them the prizes which they deserve. One thing, you must excuse me, that they put so much weight on my poor old name. I attribute it really to my old age maybe. Iam byfar the dean of oldest living pianists tonight. And so you couldn’t find anybody better for the moment. In any case, let me thank you from the bottom of my heart to give me so much honor, which I do not deserve, but accept humbly and with love. Thank you. Maestro Arthur Rubinstein about the Competition: ".. .NEVER, NEVER, NEVER have I met such a concentration of talent before; everyone, at a lesser contest, would easily have won first prize. .." (The Jerusalem Post, Sept. 13, 1974). "... Congratulations and many thanks for the brilliant organization of the Piano Master Competition in Israel, success of which was due to your relentless enthusiasm and expert handling of everything and everybody, in spite of great difficulties. Your wonderful thoughtfulness and great warmth made our stay an unforgettable experience. ." (Maestro Rubinstein's cable to J. Bistritzky, Director; dated Sept. 19, 1974) 2 oinyoi wo..."

CHAIM HERZOG, TO THE SEVENTH ARTHUR RUBINSTEIN INTERNATIONAL PIANO MASTER COMPETITION It is ten years since Arthur Rubinstein breathed his last, but he was one of those rare, irreplaceable, superbly gifted persons who cannot be forgotten. Admired world-over as one of the very greatest pianists of the century, he was notable, too, for his charm, his human warmth, his concern with fostering talent. For Israel he was the wonderful performer we eagerly heard on his visits here, aid and ally to our own musicians, and he was the guide par excellence of the gifted young. Both these aspects of Arthur Rubinstein’s personality are expressed in the eighteen year old International Piano Master Competition named for him. From among the youthful participants over the years,, fine new pianists have already emerged on the world scene. There could not have been a more appropriate way to commemorate Arthur Rubinstein than this tri-ennial competition. Given his special, profound attachment to Israel and the Jewish people, it is difficult to imagine its being held elsewhere. We are more than delighted that Israel is the venue and that our music-loving audience has the opportunity to be present. The Arthur Rubinstein Piano Master Competition has made a firm place for itself in the world of music, and we now look forward expectantly to the seventh competition. Like its predecessors, it will give the gift of continued life to the radiant memory of that extraordinary musician and man, Arthur Rubinstein. 4 n V ® n n n w K i Jerusalem, February 9, 1992. Dear Friends, I send my greetings to the Arthur Rubinstein Piano Competition that your•distinguished Association has organized for the seventh time. In these days when we are in the midst of a peace process between Israel and her neighbours and we are absorbing waves of immigrants - among them many composers, musicians and talented performers - when Israel's status in the international community has been enhanced, we should not forget the spiritual and cultural life of our country. This Competition is an expression of the vitality of the State of Israel. The participance in the competition - performers from many nations, including Israelis - will carry in their minds the image of this great Jewish pianist who was deeply attached, with all his affection and heart, to the Jewish State. His contribution to our musical life was invaluable and I wish that the participants will attain the heights of beauty and sensitivity of Arthur Rubinstein. Isra'el, which is one of the most important centers of musical life and creativity, is proud of this Festival in our midst. It is a tribute to cur State, to our musical life and to the memory of the beloved pianist whose accomplishments will inspire future generations. It is good that this Competition, bearing the name of Rubinstein, continues and will continue. I congratulate the/Arganizers and all the participants. We look forward, with enthusiasm/ tp hearing the wonderful sounds that their hands will create.

  • Sardinian Composers of Contemporary Music
    Interdisciplinary Studies in Musicology 12,2012 © PTPN & Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, Poznań 2012 CONSUELO GIGLIO Music Conservatory, Trapani Sardinian composers of contemporary music ABSTRACT: The meeting point between the school headed by Franco Oppo and the rich traditional music of the island gave birth in Sardinia to an intense flowering in the field of New Music, with a strong feeling of belonging and a constant call for a positive concept of identity. Thus, since the time of Oppo (1935) and his contemporary Vittorio Montis, we come across many composers that differ between each other but are almost always recognizably “Sardinian”. Oppo has been one of the most interesting figures on the international scene during the last few decades. After his studies in Rome, Venice and Poland in the early 1960s, he remained, by his own choice, in his home territory, sharing his “Sardinian-ness” in a free and dialectic manner with the avant-garde. After formulating his own particular aleatory approach, Oppo reached a turning point halfway through the 1970s: in Musica per chitarra e quartetto d’archi, Praxodia and, finally, in Anninnia I, the meeting point between avant-garde research and the special phonic quality of tra­ ditional music became more and more close-knit and organic, at the same time also acting on the founding language structure whilst still remaining under the control of incisive and informed dis­ ciplines (during the same period, moreover, he put forward new methodologies of analysis which were also necessary for his teaching). In this sense the most important works are chamber pieces like Anninnia I and II (1978, 1982), Attitidu (1983) and Sagra (1985), the theatrical work Eleonora d’Arborea (1986), some piano “transcriptions” - the Three berceuses (1982), Gallurese and Baroniese (1989; 1993) - Trio III (1994), Sonata B for percussion and piano (2005) and the two Concerts for piano and orchestra (1995-97; 2002).

  • Symposium Zwischen Zeiten Und Welten. Leben Und Werk Von Béla
    Symposium in memoriam Lory Wallfisch Zwischen Zeiten und Welten. Leben und Werk von Béla Bartók und George Enescu. Delmenhorst, 18.-20. November 2011 Organisation: Prof. Violeta Dinescu und Roberto Reale Carl von Ossietzky Universität Oldenburg 1 6. Zwischen Zeiten Symposium in memoriam Lory Wallfisch (1922-2011) Carl von Ossietzky Universität Oldenburg in Kooperation mit dem Hanse-Wissenschaftskolleg Delmenhorst/HWK Delmenhorst Zwischen Zeiten & Welten Leben und Werk von Béla Bartók und George Enescu 18.-20. November 2011 In diesem Jahr ist der 130. Geburtstag von zwei der schillerndsten musikalischen Persönlichkeiten des 20. Jahrhunderts zu feiern: Béla Bartók und George Enescu. Deswegen widmet sich das 6. Zwischen Zeiten-Symposium an der Universität Oldenburg diesen beiden Komponisten. Bartók und Enescu verbindet viel: Beide sind im osteuropäischen Raum geboren, beide haben ihre Heimat verlassen und dies als existentielles dramatisches Erlebnis empfunden, beide waren nicht nur Komponisten, sondern hervorragende praktizierende Musiker (Bartók als Pianist, Enescu als Violinist, Pianist und Dirigent), und schließlich haben beide in ihrem Werk das Eigene ihrer Herkunft bewahren können und Fremdes assimiliert. Bartók war ein angesehener Musikethnologe, dessen Recherchen bis heute Gültigkeit haben. Seine Transkriptionen und Analysen der traditionellen Musik Osteuropas sind Meilensteine der Forschung und haben zugleich seine eigene Musik inspiriert. Dass (und wie) diese Quellen seine Musik beeinflusst haben, bleibt in seiner Vielfalt noch zu entdecken. George Enescu hingegen hat keine wissenschaftlichen Feldforschungen wie Bartók betrieben, doch hat er, kaum weniger auf die traditionelle Musik seiner Heimat Bezug nehmend, eine Tradition begründet, die sich gänzlich von der Bartóks unterscheidet. Enescu wie Bartók haben mithin musikalische Sprachen entwickelt, die bei allen Gemeinsamkeiten außerordentlich individualisiert sind.
