Bernd Franke Bernd Franke © Bernd Franke Bernd Franke Contemporary BIOGRAPHY Bernd Franke Bernd Franke was born in 1959 in Weissenfels/Saale and grew up in an open, tolerant, and, with regard to music, an undogmatic family home. There, as a child, he came into contact with classical music, jazz and pop music, which were regarded as completely equal. Such a musical understanding still characterizes him to this day, which explains his passion for improvisation. Characteristic of his œuvre since the 1980s is the crossing of borders, both musically and by incorporating socially relevant themes. Between 1975 and 1981 he studied composition with Siegfried Thiele and conducting with Wolf-Dieter Hauschild at the Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy Musikhochschule Leipzig. In 1980 he founded the ensemble ‘Junge Musik’ Leipzig and continued to lead the group until 1983. Since 1981 he has taught at the Institute of Musicology at Leipzig University and the Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy Musikhochschule Leipzig. Since 2003 he has been Professor for composition, music of the 20th and 21st century, music theory and analysis at the University of Leipzig. He was also the recipient of the Hanns Eisler Prize and Mendelssohn Scholarship in 1981. From 1981 to 1985 he was Meisterschüler at the Academy of Arts in East Berlin. He began regular correspondence with Stockhausen, Nono, Ligeti and Henze in the mid-80s, visiting Lutosławski in Warsaw too. In 1987 he was awarded the Composition prize at the 9th Boswil International Composition Seminar (Künstlerhaus Boswil Foundation, Switzerland) and the Kucyna International Composition Prize, Boston (USA). His association with the Künstlerhaus Boswil Foundation continued in the form of a number of long-term work residencies. In 1988 he was involved in composer workshops at the Gaudeamus Foundation Amsterdam working with Ton de Leeuw and Chu Wen Chung among others, and in the same year he began work on his cycle half-way house - SOLO XFACH (for Joseph Beuys) with Solo 3fach. The piece was premiered that year by the Kölner Horntrio at the Alte Oper, Frankfurt. He received the Leonard Bernstein Fellowship from the Tanglewood Music Center, USA in 1989 and studied with Bernstein, Lukas Foss, Louis Krasner and Oliver Knussen, amongst others. His first meeting with Hans Werner Henze, who was to become his mentor in the early 90s, came at the world premiere of the West-Eastern German Songbook at the Alte Oper Frankfurt. Franke’s Wann wird Friede sein, based on a text by Karl Vollmoeller, was included in the project. He continued to exchange letters with Henze and was to meet him regularly in Berlin, Munich, London and San Marino. In 1993 he received study grants and delivered a series of lectures in the USA, including in Atlanta, Baton Rouge, Carrollton and Minneapolis. In 1994 Henze invited Franke to sit on the jury at the Munich Biennale for New Music Theater. Between 1996 and 1998 he was Artistic Director of the ‘New Music at the Beck Galerie’ (Leipzig/Düsseldorf) series and in 1998 founded Ensemble SOLO XFACH with the aim of promoting authentic performances of the cycle of the same name. Since 1998 he has undertaken a number of long-term study trips and working stays in Southeast Asia and India. Leipzig London New York C. F. Peters Ltd & Co. KG Peters Edition Ltd C. F.

In 2001 Franke began work on his CUT cycle; CUT I-III was given its world premiere by Ensemble Modern. 2002 marked the beginning of Franke’s association with C.F. Peters and since then his works have been exclusively published by the company. Franke became a member of the ‘Sächsische Akademie der Künste’ Dresden in the same year. Since the beginning of the nineties he has been in close cooperation (lectures and concert tours) with the Goethe Institute (including Pittsburgh, Atlanta, New York, Toronto, Winnipeg, Prague, Helsinki, Stockholm, Kolkata, Bangalore, Tokyo, Taipei, Lithuania, Estonia). Since 2017 Franke has been a Member of the Austrian Society for New Music. His international orientation and his experiences with different cultures are also reflected in the fact that some of his works were premiered in Asia, including in Tokyo (2013), India / Kolkata (2013) and Taiwan (2014). He was Composer in Residence in Finland / Kaustinen (2003), in Sweden (2004), and in Copenhagen / Ars Nova / Paul Hillier (2008 and 2009), at the Land of the Disobedient Festival in Lithuania (2009), in Kolkata, India (2011), in Taiwan (National Chinese Orchestra Taipei) (2013). In the area of vocal-instrumental works, his interest in intercultural cooperation is also expressed in intensive direct collaboration with lyricists such as David Bengree-Jones (UK), SAID (Iran/Germany), Christian Lehnert (Germany) and Adel Karasholi (Syria/Germany). Collaboration and Commissions received include those by and with Riccardo Chailly, Kurt Masur, Paul Hillier, Lukas Foss, Michael Sanderling, Joel Sachs, Gabriel Feltz, Andrey Boreyko, Fabian Panisello, Howard Arman, Stefan Blunier, Yukiko Sugawara-Lachenmann, Ueli Wiget, HR, Jürgen Ruck, Wu Wei, and renowned orchestras such as the Gewandhausorchester, the MDR Orchestra, BSO Berlin, Ensemble Modern, London Sinfonietta, Kings Singers, BR/Musica Viva, MDR, NDR, Calmus Ensemble, Raschèr Saxophone Quartet, Amarcord and the National Chinese Orchestra, as well as festivals such as the Darmstädter Ferienkurse. Many of Franke’s works are produced as cycles, among others SOLO XFACH (for Joseph Beuys), since 1988, CUT I-XII (since 2001), in between (since 2001), and VEIL (since 2013). In his work, he is particularly interested in the processes of the deconstruction of orchestral and ensemble structures, and the further development of organic aleatoric as well as the cultures, philosophies and religions of Asia. www.berndfranke.de WORK LIST Orchestra BlueGreen (2004) 18’ for saxophone quartet and orchestra SaxQua - 2.2.2.2 - 4.3.3.1 - timp - perc(3) - hp - vc solo - str (min.12.10.8.6.4) Commissioned by Kiel Philharmonic Orchestra First performed 26 September 2004, Kiel (D), Raschèr Saxophone Quartet and Kiel Philharmonic Orchestra, cond.: Georg Fritzsch EP 10989 Contrapunctus XI - Die Kunst der Fuge (2019) 8’ for chamber orchestra 2.1.1.1.bcl.2 - 2.2.3.0 - acc - strings First performed 18 June 2019, Leipzig, St. Thomas Church, Bachfest, by Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie, cond.: Omer Meir Wellber EP 14407 On The Square (2006/07) 21’ for orchestra 3.3.3.3 - 4.2.3.1 - timp - perc(3) - hp - str - offstage: ob, tp, vib, va Commissioned by Musikalische Akademie des Nationaltheaters Mannheim First performed 14 May 2007, Mannheim (D), by the Orchestra of the Nationaltheater Mannheim, cond.: Axel Kober EP 12601 open doors (2002) 14’ for bandoneon or accordion and orchestra band/acdn solo - 1(picc).1.1(clEb).1 - 1.1.flghn.1.1 - timp - perc(3) - hp - pf - str - CD Commissioned by Mitteldeutscher Rundfunk (MDR) First performed 21 January 2003, Leipzig, Gewandhaus, by Per Arne Glorvigen (bandoneon) and MDR Symphony Orchestra, cond.: Rolf Gupta Version for Accordion First performed 17 April 2012, Freiburg (D), by Theodoro Anzellotti (acc) and Philharmonisches Orchester Freiburg, cond.: Fabrice Bollon EP 10985 Praya Dubia (2009-2011) 17’ for orchestra For Esbjörn Svensson 3.3.3.3 - 4.3.3.1 - timp - perc(3) - hp - str (14.12.10.8.6) Commissioned by Musica Viva and Bayerischer Rundfunk First performed 27 May 2011, Munich, by Orchester des Bayrischen Rundfunks, cond.: Lukas Vis EP 12597 Raschèr Fanfare (2002) 14’ for saxophone orchestra sopr sax(2), alto sax(4), ten sax(2), bar sax(2), bass sax(2) Commissioned by Kaustinen Chamber Music Festival First performed 01 February 2003, Kaustinen Chamber Music Festival (FIN), by the Raschèr Saxophone Orchestra, cond.: Bruce Weinberger EP 10986 The way down is the way up II (2010) 21’ for orchestra 2.2.2.2 - 4.3.3.1 - timp - perc - hp - pf - str Commissioned by Stuttgarter Philharmoniker First performed 07 October 2010, Stuttgart, Liederhalle, by Stuttgarter Philharmoniker, cond.: by Gabriel Feltz EP 12596 WORK LIST Three Marches for C.

    WOLFRAM LATTKE Tenor ROBERT POHLERS Tenor FRANK OZIMEK Bariton DANIEL KNAUFT Bass HOLGER KRAUSE Bass Unverwechselbarer Klang, atemberaubende Homogenität, musikalische Stilsicherheit und eine gehörige Portion Charme und Witz sind die besonderen Markenzeichen von amarcord. Das äußerst Facettenreiche und breitgefächerte Repertoire umFasst Gesänge des Mittelalters, Madrigale und Messen der Renaissance, Kompositionen und Werkzyklen der europäischen Romantik und des 20. Jahrhunderts sowie A-cappella-Arrangements weltweit gesammelter Volkslieder und bekannter Songs aus Soul und Jazz. Dem Neuen gegenüber auFgeschlossen, legen die Sänger großen Wert auF die PFlege und Förderung zeitgenössischer Musik. So schrieben u.a. Bernd Franke, SteFFen Schleiermacher, Ivan Moody, James MacMillan, Sidney M. Boquiren, Siegfried Thiele und Dimitri Terzakis Werke für amarcord. Wenngleich reine A-cappella-Programme im Mittelpunkt der Konzerttätigkeit stehen, gibt es regelmäßig Projekte mit namhaFten Ensembles und Künstlern wie dem Gewandhausorchester Leipzig, der Lautten Compagney, dem Swedish Chamber Orchestra, dem Vogler-Quartett, dem Ensemble Modern, der Pianistin Ragna Schirmer, dem Bandoneonvirtuosen Per Arne Glorvigen, der Gambistin Hille Perl und Friend 'n Fellow. Das Vokalensemble ist Preisträger zahlreicher internationaler Wettbewerbe (Tolosa/Spanien, Tampere/Finnland, Pohlheim/Deutschland, 1. Chor-Olympiade in Linz/Österreich). Im Jahr 2002 gewann das Ensemble den Deutschen Musikwettbewerb, nachdem es bereits zwei Jahre zuvor mit dem Stipendium und der

    amarcord Wolfram Lattke • Martin Lattke • Frank Ozimek • Daniel Knauft • Holger Krause Sunday Concert Series: German Vocal Quintet amarcord Sings Romantic and World Music This Sunday, April 3, the Gardner Museumʼs Sunday Concert Series welcomes renowned German vocal quintet amarcord to MassArtʼs Pozen Center for an afternoon of a cappella song. @the gardner caught up with bass Daniel Knauft, a founding member of amarcord, by phone from Stuttgart, Germany, to ask a few questions about the group and the upcoming performance. amarcord has been singing together for nearly two decades now—in fact, 2012 will mark your twentieth anniversary. How did the group get its start? We first met as choirboys in the St. Thomas Boys Choir (or Thomanerchor) in Leipzig, where we all sang together from the age of nine to eighteen. The choir was made famous by Johann Sebastian Bach [Bach served as choir director from 1723-1750 and is buried in the churchyard], and his spirit is all around. We grew up performing Bach works by heart. You should also bear in mind that this was East Germany in the 1980s, on the other side of the Iron Curtain. Imagine what the music of Bach meant to people who werenʼt allowed to live their faith or travel where they wanted. In that atmosphere, protected by the work of Bach, we grew up pretty freely, touring to West Germany and Japan, among other places. Of course, as children you take this for granted, but the older you get the more you realize how special it was. We formed this group in 1992, when the oldest among us was aging out of the choir but we didnʼt want to stop singing together.

  • SILENT NIGHT SSAATB, Unaccompanied WW1893 Arr
    SILENT NIGHT SSAATB, unaccompanied WW1893 arr. Jēkabsone SILENT NIGHT SSAATB Arranged by Laura Jēkabsone About the Work Franz Xaver Gruber’s Silent Night was included in the repertoire of a cappella group Latvian Voices at the end of 2018, celebrating the 100th anniversary of the song. The idea to work on this piece’s arrangement arose already at the end of 2017, returning home from the Latvian Voices concert tour. In complete silence, I realized that the first bars of this song was playing in my head, again and again, so I sat down at the piano and started to write it down. Arranging this popular Christmas melody, I deviate from the song’s classical sound, dressing it in close harmony chords. -Laura Jēkabsone Silent Night Silent night, holy night! Silent night, holy night! All is calm, all is bright Son of God, love’s pure light, round yon virgin mother and child! radiant, beams from thy holy face Holy infant, so tender and mild, with the dawn of redeeming grace, sleep in heavenly peace, Jesus, Lord, at thy birth, sleep in heavenly peace. Jesus, Lord, at thy birth! Silent night, holy night! Shepherds quake at the sight: glories stream from heaven afar, heav’nly hosts sing, “Alleluia! Christ the Savior is born, Christ the Savior is born!” About the Arranger Laura Jēkabsone (1985) is a Latvian composer, singer, conductor, vocal coach, and artistic director and singer in the vocal group Latvian Voices. Laura graduated from Jāzeps Mediņš Riga Music High School and continued her studies at Jāzeps Vītols Latvian Academy of Music, where in 2009 she received her Bachelor’s degree in Music Education.
