Maazel began his tenure as the Philharmonic’s new Music Director in September, and already has put his stamp of authority on the playing of the orchestra. Indeed he and the Philharmonic were rapturously received wherever they performed on a recent tour of the Far East. Celebrating the New Year with music is nothing new for Maazel: he holds the modern record for most appearances as conductor of the celebrated New Year’s Day concerts in Vienna by the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra. There, of course, the fare is made up mostly of music by the waltzing Johann Strauss family, father and sons. For his New Year’s Eve concert with the New York Philharmonic Maazel has chosen quintessentially American music by the composer considered by many to be America’s closest equivalent to the Strausses, George Gershwin.

    December 31, 2007, 8:00pm on PBS New York Philharmonic New Year’s Eve Gala with Joshua Bell In September Live From Lincoln Center observed one of its longtime traditions: the Gala opening concert of the new season of the New York Philharmonic. On December 31 we'll re-invent another longtime Live From Lincoln Center tradition: the Gala New Year's Eve concert by the New York Philharmonic. Music Director Lorin Maazel will be on the podium for a program of music appropriate for the festive occasion, and the guest artist will be the acclaimed violinist, Joshua Bell. I first encountered Joshua Bell at the Spoleto Festival, U.S.A. in Charleston, South Carolina. He was then barely into his teens but he was already a formidable violinist, playing chamber music with some of the world's most honored musicians. Not long afterward he burst upon the international scene at what was described as "a sensational debut" with the Philadelphia Orchestra and its Music Director of the time, Riccardo Muti. Joshua Bell was brought up in Bloomington, Indiana, where his father was a Professor at Indiana University. I.U., as it is known in academia, is an extraordinary university, with a School of Music that is world-renowned. Among its outstanding faculty was the eminent violinist Josef Gingold, who became Josh's inspired (and inspiring) mentor and devoted friend. Indeed it was the presence of Gingold in Indiana that led to the establishment of the Indianapolis International Violin Competition. One way for a young musician to attract attention is to win one of the major international competitions.

  • Lorin Maazel, Conductor
    LORIN MAAZEL, CONDUCTOR For over five decades, Lorin Maazel has been one of the worlds most esteemed and sought-after conductors. In spring 2011, he completed his fifth and final season as the inaugural Music Director of the spectacular, Santiago Calatrava-designed opera house in Valencia, Spain, the Palau de les Arts Reina Sofia. Music Director of the New York Philharmonic from 2002 to 2009, he assumes the same post with the Munich Philharmonic at the start of the 2012/13 season. He is also the founder and Artistic Director of a new festival based on his farm property in Virginia, the Castleton Festival, launched to exceptional acclaim in 2009 and expanding its activities nationally and internationally in 2011/12 and beyond. Maestro Maazels 2010/11 season was highlighted by productions of Aïda and his own opera 1984 at the Palau de les Arts; two concerts with the newly formed resident orchestra of Chinas National Center for the Performing Arts in Beijing; a NewYears eve marathon concert of all nine Beethoven symphonies in Tokyo; and return appearances with the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra and the Boston Symphony Orchestra. He completed a Mahler cycle in London with the Philharmonia (for the Mahler centennial year of 2011) in addition to touring extensively with the Orchestra in Europe. In September 2010, he marked the 100th anniversary of the première of Mahlers Eighth Symphony at the Ruhr Festival conducting the work with forces numbering in excess of 1,000 performers. In March 2011, he took two Castleton Festival Opera productions to Berkeley, California (Cal Performances) for the West Coast début of the company, with Brittens Rape of Lucretia and Albert Herring.

    LIVE FROM LINCOLN CENTER July 18, 2002, 8:00 p.m. on PBS Lincoln Center Festival/New York Philharmonic Kurt Masur's 75th Birthday & Farewell "Thank you, Kurt Masur" has been the season-long motto of the New York Philharmonic. Indeed, there is much for which to thank Mr. Masur. His 11 seasons as the Orchestra's Music Director have seen a dramatic improvement in the Philharmonic's performance standards as well as a discipline in its playing that have laid to rest the one-time canard that the players of the New York Philharmonic are an unruly bunch. Concert after concert during the Masur years the Philharmonic has shown that it can stand comparison with the greatest orchestras anywhere in the world. The 2001-2002 season has been Mr. Masur's final one as Music Director, though he will return for a number of weeks next season as a Guest Conductor. To put the seal on the Masur tenure, as well as to celebrate the Maestro's 75th birthday, a special concert by the New York Philharmonic has been scheduled in Avery Fisher Hall for Thursday evening, July 18. Characteristically, Mr. Masur has devised a program that beams a spotlight on a number of the orchestra's principal players. Happily, we'll be in Avery Fisher Hall that evening with our cameras and microphones to bring that concert to you live in our continuing Live From Lincoln Center series. The concert will begin with a demonstration of the corporate excellence of the players-the Overture to Candide by Leonard Bernstein (himself a former Music Director of the Philharmonic), performed by the orchestra without conductor! I remember a similar conductorless Candide Overture performance as a memorial to Bernstein in Carnegie Hall with musicians from several of the orchestras with whom he had particularly close associations, among them the Philharmonic, of course, as well as the Boston Symphony, the London Symphony, the Concertgebouw Orchestra of Amsterdam, and the Vienna Philharmonic.

GREGOR PIATIGORSKY written by S. and S. Applebaum for Celloheaven GREGOR PIATIGORSKY PART A – Biographical Details By Celloheaven One of the pre-eminent string players of the 20th century, Gregor Piatigorsky was born in Ukraine in 1903, and died in Los Angeles in 1976. His international solo career lasted over 40 years, and especially during the 1940's and early 1950's he was the world's premier touring cello virtuoso -- Casals was in retirement, Feuermann had died, and the three artists who were to succeed Piatigorsky (Starker, Rose, and Rostropovich) were still in their formative stages. His one true peer, Fournier, was limited in his travelling abilities by polio. Thus, Piatigorsky had the limelight almost to himself. He was gregarious, loved to travel and perform anywhere, and he hobnobbed as easily with farmers in small towns as he did with Toscanini, Stravinsky, Rubenstein, and Schoenberg.
