He also explores Spielberg's unusual foray into the world of animation with James Horner's score to An American Tail; Martin Scorsese's contribution to the cinematic landscape with Bernard Hermann's score to Taxi Driver and celebrates all things Disney too. Andrew includes Henry Mancini's triumphant music to The Great Mouse Detective and one of Alan Menken's many triumphs – The Little Mermaid.

The programme begins in sunny Seville with a Rossini overture, followed by more Spanish travels as Julian Bream plays Rodrigo’s Concierto de Aranjuez and Lise de la Salle is the soloist in a brand new recording of Piazzolla’s Libertango. Elsewhere, Beethoven explores the lush Bavarian countryside in his ‘Pastoral’ symphony and there’s something a little closer to home, with music written for a gentle journey down the River Thames. Gioachino Rossini The Barber of Seville – Overture Rinaldo Alessandrini conducts Concerto Italiano Ludwig van Beethoven Symphony No.6 in F major Opus 68 (‘Pastoral’) Simon Rattle conducts the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra Ronald Binge Sailing by Ronald Corp conducts the New London Orchestra Johann Sebastian Bach Violin Concerto in A minor BWV.1041 Daniel Lozakovich directs the Bavarian Radio Chamber Orchestra from the violin Joaquin Rodrigo Concierto de Aranjuez Guitar: Julian Bream Colin Davis conducts the Melos Ensemble George Frideric Handel Water Music Suite No.2 in G major Marc Minkowski conducts Les Musiciens du Louvre Felix Mendelssohn A Midsummer Night’s Dream – Scherzo Ivan Fischer conducts the Budapest Festival Orchestra Astor Piazzolla Libertango Piano: Lisa de la Salle Continued… 2 SATURDAY 14TH AUGUST 4pm to 7pm: MOIRA STUART’S HALL OF FAME CONCERT Continued… Claude Debussy Prélude a l'après midi d'un faune Kurt Masur conducts the New York Philharmonic Orchestra Franz Schubert Piano Quintet in A major D.667 (‘The Trout’) Zukerman Chamber Players 7pm to 9pm: SATURDAY NIGHT AT THE MOVIES with ANDREW COLLINS Andrew continues his summer of cinema with his favourite film scores from the 1970s and 1980s.

There are offerings from Hugo Alfven and Eric Coates, alongside Rimsky Korsakov’s lively Cappricio Espagnol. performed by the London Symphony Orchestra. 3 SUNDAY 15TH AUGUST 4pm to 7pm: JOHN HUMPHRYS John marks the birthday of British composer and conductor, Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, who made his debut in the Classic FM Hall of Fame this year. In his day, he achieved such success that contemporary musicians referred to him as the “African Mahler”. John chooses his Violin Concerto, played by Philippe Graffin, composed for the American violinist Maud Powell, and which was subject to rewrites as parts were lost during their transit to the United States. To celebrate the middle of August, John features music from the 2021 Vienna Midsummer Concert, held in June in the Schoenbrunn Palace Gardens and led for the first time by British conductor Daniel Harding. 7pm to 10pm: SMOOTH CLASSICS AT SEVEN with CHARLOTTE HAWKINS Charlotte’s Young Classical Star is Kian Soltani, a 29-year-old Iranian cellist. He was born in Bregenz to a family of Persian musicians from Iran and began playing the cello at the age of four. Kian has held the post of principal cellist in the West-Eastern Divan Orchestra and has performed as a soloist with the Tonhalle Orchester Zürich, Oslo Philharmonic and as part of Leonard Bernstein's 100th birthday celebrations at the Tanglewood Festival. In 2018, he released his debut album on Deutsche Grammophon and has frequently collaborated with Daniel Barenboim. 4 MONDAY 16TH AUGUST 8pm to 10pm: THE CLASSIC FM CONCERT with JOHN SUCHET: UNDERAPPRECIATED VIOLIN CONCERTOS – PART 1 / 5 All week on the Classic FM Concert, John is celebrating underappreciated violin concertos – those which perhaps stand away from the spotlight that was enjoyed by their more famous contemporaries, but which John thinks deserve more attention. Chouchane Siranossian is the soloist in the world premiere recording of Romberg’s Violin Concerto No.4. A big star in cultural Hamburg, Romberg wrote a large number of works for violin, but only 16 manuscripts from his whole oeuvre have survived. Later in the programme, the Staatskapelle Dresden play the uncharacteristically uplifting Symphony No.8 by Beethoven, who was born just three years after Romberg. There’s also a suite of music from Debussy’s only opera, Pelléas and Mélisande. Aaron Copland Fanfare for the Common Man Antal Dorati conducts the Detroit Symphony Orchestra Andreas Romberg Violin Concerto No.4 in C major Chouchane Siranossian directs the Capriccio Baroque Orchestra from the violin Richard Addinsell Warsaw Concerto Piano: Roderick Elms José Serebrier conducts the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra Ludwig van Beethoven Symphony No.8 in F major Opus 93 Colin Davis conducts the Staatskapelle Dresden Max Bruch Canzone Opus 55 Trumpet: Sergei Nakariakov Vladimir Ashkenazy conducts the Philharmonia Orchestra Claude Debussy Pelléas and Mélisande – Concert Suite Claudio Abbado conducts the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra 5 TUESDAY 17TH AUGUST 8pm to 10pm: THE CLASSIC FM CONCERT with JOHN SUCHET: UNDERAPPRECIATED VIOLIN CONCERTOS – PART 2 / 5 John’s showcase of underappreciated violin concertos continues with the music of Hungarian composer Jenő Hubay, a celebrated teacher and star violinist of his day. His Violin Concerto No.1 was dedicated to the celebrated musician Joseph Joaquim – also the dedicatee of works by Schumann, Dvořák and Bruch – and premiered in honour of the composer’s 50th birthday in 1908. Chloe Hanslip is the soloist in this recording, accompanied by the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra. There’s also music by two of Hubay’s musical supporters and admirers: Liszt and Brahms. Johann Pachelbel Canon in D major City of London Sinfonia Johannes Brahms Symphony No.1 in C minor Opus 68 Andris Nelsons conducts the Boston Symphony Orchestra Jenő Hubay Violin Concerto No.1 in A minor Opus 21 Violin: Chloe Hanslip Andrew Mogrelia conducts the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra Franz Liszt Liebestraum No.3 Piano: Sophie Pacini Antonin Dvořák American Suite in A major Libor Pešek conducts the Prague Symphony Orchestra 6 WEDNESDAY 18TH AUGUST 8pm to 10pm: THE CLASSIC FM CONCERT with JOHN SUCHET: UNDERAPPRECIATED VIOLIN CONCERTOS – PART 3 / 5 John shines the spotlight on Joseph White’s Violin Concerto in F-sharp minor in his week-long exploration of underappreciated violin concertos. Born to an Afro-Cuban family and sometimes known as José Lafitte, White was celebrated in his local community for his virtuosic violin playing – until a wealthy American sponsored him to study in Paris, where he gained fans in more fashionable society. Rachel Barton Pine, a champion of lesser-known composers, plays White’s work, after an overture by one of his admirers, Rossini. Later, there’s a charming Piano Quartet by Mozart, and music synonymous with enchanted broomsticks. Gioachino Rossini Semiramide – Overture Antonio Pappano conducts the National Academy of St Cecilia Orchestra Joseph White Violin Concerto in F-sharp minor Violin: Rachel Barton Pine Daniel Hege conducts the Encore Chamber Orchestra Edvard Grieg Holberg Suite Opus 40 Seiji Ozawa conducts the Mito Chamber Orchestra William Boyce Symphony No.4 in F major Kevin Mallon conducts the Arcadia Ensemble Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Piano Quartet No.1 in G minor K.478 Piano: Paul Lewis Leopold String Trio Paul Dukas The Sorcerer’s Apprentice Leonard Slatkin conducts the National Orchestra of France 7 THURSDAY 19TH AUGUST 8pm to 10pm: THE CLASSIC FM CONCERT with JOHN SUCHET: UNDERAPPRECIATED VIOLIN CONCERTOS – PART 4 / 5 John continues his celebration of lesser-known violin concertos with a piece well-known in China, but heard less often in the Western canon. The Butterfly Lovers’ Violin Concerto was written by Gang Chen and Zhanhao when they were both students, and it was briefly censored during the Cultural Revolution. Telling the story of

    The RECORDING Navigating, Coping & Cashing In Maze November 2013 Introduction Trying to get a handle on where the recording business is headed is a little like trying to nail Jell-O to the wall. No matter what side of the business you may be on— producing, selling, distributing, even buying recordings— there is no longer a “standard operating procedure.” Hence the title of this Special Report, designed as a guide to the abundance of recording and distribution options that seem to be cropping up almost daily thanks to technology’s relentless march forward. And as each new delivery CONTENTS option takes hold—CD, download, streaming, app, flash drive, you name it—it exponentionally accelerates the next. 2 Introduction At the other end of the spectrum sits the artist, overwhelmed with choices: 4 The Distribution Maze: anybody can (and does) make a recording these days, but if an artist is not signed Bring a Compass: Part I with a record label, or doesn’t have the resources to make a vanity recording, is there still a way? As Phil Sommerich points out in his excellent overview of “The 8 The Distribution Maze: Distribution Maze,” Part I and Part II, yes, there is a way, or rather, ways. But which Bring a Compass: Part II one is the right one? Sommerich lets us in on a few of the major players, explains 11 Five Minutes, Five Questions how they each work, and the advantages and disadvantages of each. with Three Top Label Execs In “The Musical America Recording Surveys,” we confirmed that our readers are both consumers and makers of recordings.

  • Musicweb International August 2020 RETROSPECTIVE SUMMER 2020
    RETROSPECTIVE SUMMER 2020 By Brian Wilson The decision to axe the ‘Second Thoughts and Short Reviews’ feature left me with a vast array of part- written reviews, left unfinished after a colleague had got their thoughts online first, with not enough hours in the day to recast a full review in each case. This is an attempt to catch up. Even if in almost every case I find myself largely in agreement with the original review, a brief reminder of something you may have missed, with a slightly different slant, may be useful – and, occasionally, I may be raising a dissenting voice.

Its first per­ formance was November 24, 1839, in Paris, the composer conducting. "There should be no doubt about the character of this work," wrote the composer in a preface to the score. "Although voices are frequently employed, this is not a concert-opera, a cantata, but a symphony with chorus. If song occurs in the beginning, it is for the purpose of preparing the mind of the hearer for the dramatic scenes in which sentiments and passions are to be expressed by the orchestra." The movement opens with an Allegretto (pianissimo) for the strings, to which horns and flutes are added.

    ANTONIO VIVALDI (Venezia 1678 - Wien 1741) CONCERTO RV 93 (F. XII n. 15) con 2 Violini Leuto, e Basso Del Vivaldi P.S.E. Il Conte Wrttby Urtext edition by Fabio Rizza based on the original manuscript housed in the Biblioteca Nazionale, Turin, Italy, "Renzo Giordani Collection", vol. 35, fol. 297 - 302 [email protected] PREFACE 3 CONCERTO RV 93 4 1. [Allegro giusto] 4 2. Largo 8 3. Allegro 10 BIBLIOGRAPHY/BIBLIOGRAFIA 13 DISCOGRAPHY/DISCOGRAFIA 14 PREFACE Probably this Concerto con 2 Violini Leuto, e Basso has been written in the early 1730s, when Vivaldi was in Prague, and it's dedicated to a Bohemian Count, Johann Joseph von Wrtby (Jan Josef Vrtba, according to the Czech form). The present edition is a faithful copy of the autograph housed in the Biblioteca Nazionale, Turin (Italy), "Renzo Giordani Collection", vol. 35, fol. 297 - 302. I've corrected only an obvious mistake (a C-sharp instead of a B) in measure 9 of the second movement. The music has been engraved in Finale 98. PREFAZIONE È probabile che questo Concerto con 2 Violini Leuto, e Basso sia stato scritto intorno al 1730, mentre Vivaldi si trovava a Praga, ed è dedicato al conte boemo Johann Joseph von Wrtby (o Jan Josef Vrtba, secondo la grafia ceca). Questa edizione è una copia fedele del manoscritto autografo conservato presso la Biblioteca Nazionale di Torino, fondo "Renzo Giordani", vol. 35, fol. 297 - 302. Mi sono limitato a correggere un palese errore (un do diesis al posto di un si) a misura 9 del secondo movimento.
