In 2017, they were appointed co-directors of the Point Counterpoint Chamber Music camp and started a partnership with the Harpa International Academy and Icelandic Chamber Festival. In 2020 the partnership will be with the Music and More SummerFest in Bosnia- Herzegovina. Committed to expanding the repertoire for violin and viola, in 2010 they commissioned and recorded 3 new works for violin and viola by Belize-born British composer Errollyn Wallen, Argentinean composer Mario Diaz Gavier, and American "You would have composer Libby Larsen for their debut CD “Five Postcards.” Their second to go a long way CD, titled “Eight Pieces” and released in 2013, was deemed a “fine new to hear better recording” and praised for its “wonderfully smooth ensemble work” and “vibrant and focused” playing by Gramophone and Audible Audiophile duet playing than Magazines.

Photograph: Mike Hoban/ArenaPAL The distinguished Austrian conductor Dietfried Bernet, who has died aged 71, was a regular visitor to Britain, where he was much admired by the public and critics alike. Indeed, some of his best work was done in England, at the London houses, Glyndebourne and Opera North, though his permanent appointments were elsewhere: Vienna, Mainz and Copenhagen. Born in Vienna, he studied at the Academy of Music and Performing Arts there with Hans Swarowsky and Dimitri Mitropoulos. After making his debut in orchestral concerts in Austria, he went on to act as guest conductor with leading orchestras and at major opera houses. In 1962 he won first prize in the International Conductor's Competition at Liverpool, one of few such events at that time. The financial reward was less significant than the consequent representation by the leading artist management firm Ibbs & Tillett and the invitations to conduct the Royal Philharmonic and Liverpool Philharmonic orchestras in tours all over England. Appointments followed at the Vienna Volksoper (1964) and Vienna State Opera (1966), and numerous engagements with such orchestras as the Berlin Philharmonic, Chicago Symphony, London Philharmonic, Munich Philharmonic and Hungarian National orchestras. In 1974 he became Generalmusikdirektor of the city of Mainz, but continued to guest conduct all over Europe, as well as in North and South America.

  • The Blake Collection in Memory of Nancy M
    The Blake Collection In Memory of Nancy M. Blake BELLINI’S NORMA featuring CECILIA BARTOLI This tragic opera is set in Roman-occupied, first-century Gaul, features a title character, who although a Druid priestess, is in many ways a modern woman. Norma has secretly taken the Roman proconsul Pollione as her lover and had two children with him. Political and personal crises arise when the locals turn against the occupiers and Pollione turns to a new paramour. Norma “is a role with emotions ranging from haughty and demanding, to desperately passionate, to vengeful and defiant. And the singer must convey all of this while confronting some of the most vocally challenging music ever composed. And if that weren't intimidating enough for any singer, Norma and its composer have become almost synonymous with the specific and notoriously torturous style of opera known as bel canto — literally, ‘beautiful singing’” (“Love Among the Druids: Bellini's Norma,” NPR World of Opera, May 16, 2008). And Bartoli, one of the greatest living opera divas, is up to the challenges the role brings. (New York Public Radio’s WQXR’s “OperaVore” declared that “Bartoli is Fierce and Mercurial in Bellini's Norma,” Marion Lignana Rosenberg, June 09, 2013.) If you’re already a fan of this opera, you’ve no doubt heard a recording spotlighting the great soprano Maria Callas (and we have such a recording, too), but as the notes with the Bartoli recording point out, “The role of Norma was written for Giuditta Pasta, who sang what today’s listeners would consider to be mezzo-soprano roles,” making Bartoli more appropriate than Callas as Norma.

Over its long history many distinguished conductors and internationally celebrated instrumentalists have left their mark on this onetime court orchestra. Previous directors include Heinrich Schütz, Johann Adolf Hasse, Carl Maria von Weber and Richard Wagner, who called the ensemble his »miraculous harp«. The list of prominent conductors of the last 100 years includes Ernst von Schuch, Fritz Reiner, Fritz Busch, Karl Böhm, Joseph Keilberth, Rudolf Kempe, Otmar Suitner, Kurt Sanderling, Herbert Blomstedt and Giuseppe Sinopoli. The orchestra was directed by Bernard Haitink from 2002-2004 and most recently by Fabio Luisi from 2007-2010. Principal Conductor since the 2012 / 2013 season has been Christian Thielemann. In May 2016 the former Principal Conductor Herbert Blomstedt received the title Conductor Laureate. This title has only been awarded to Sir Colin Davis before, who held it from 1990 until his death in April 2013. Myung-Whun Chung has been Principal Guest Conductor since the 2012 / 2013 season. Richard Strauss and the Staatskapelle were closely linked for more than sixty years. Nine of the composer’s operas were premiered in Dresden, including »Salome«, »Elektra« and »Der Rosenkavalier«, while Strauss’s »Alpine Symphony« was dedicated to the orchestra. Countless other famous composers have written works either dedicated to the orchestra or first performed in Dresden.
