The Eleventh Season: from Bach July 18–August 10, 2013 The Eleventh Season: From Bach July 18–August 10, 2013 WELCOME TO MUSIC@MENLO Dear Friends, The most transformative musical experiences of our own lives inevitably surface at Music@Menlo. Whether they inspire a single concert or provide context for an entire festival, we bring you these musical revelations with tremendous excitement. This we promise you: if you find it at Music@Menlo, it has a story deeply rooted in our personal history. Such an experience occurred for us during Music@Menlo’s ninth festival, which illustrated Brahms’s wide range of musical sources and influences. A program opened with an eloquent performance of Bach’s Second Suite for Solo Cello and then moved to works by composers indebted to both Bach and Brahms. Bach is a composer we had long revered, and we spoke excitedly of this concert’s extraordinary effect. Had the music of Bach—which unquestionably laid the foundations for the flow- ering of classical music through the present day—transformed the works which followed it, by composers including Schoenberg and Harbison? Or had Bach’s music, through its cosmic logic, simply opened our ears to hearing everything that followed it more clearly and vividly? These questions blossomed into our dream of an entire Music@Menlo season programmed in this special way, and in due time From Bach was born. Once again, Music@Menlo is proud to offer a rich festival experience to be found nowhere else. What better way to inaugurate our second decade than with con- certs that begin with works by a composer without equal, created at the glorious dawn of great music?

To the ears of many modern listeners, the canon begins with Bach, and arguably every major musi- cal innovation has borne his influence. Whether in the craftsmanship of composers from Haydn to Mendelssohn, the sonic magnitude of Brahms, Bartók, and Shostakovich, or even the sensual allure of Debussy, Richard Strauss, and George Gershwin, Bach’s legacy endures. This season, Music@Menlo examines that legacy, mining the depths of Bach’s art from the perspective of the generations of great composers who followed.

The sonic breadth that Bach imagined, afforded by two modern Steinway pianos, is given voice in this explosive piano-centric performance—an anachronistic testament to the timeless resonance of Bach’s art. Schubert’s Rondo in A Major for Piano, Four Hands, coaxes orches- tral immensity from one keyboard, and Schumann’s Andante and Variations likewise exploits an alchemical ensemble of two pianos, two cellos, and horn to ravishing effect. The program concludes with the pathbreaking Sonata for Two Pianos and Percussion of Béla Bartók, one of the towering geniuses of early twentieth-century mod- ernism, and who counted Bach among his essential influences.

More than an academic two-part structure, the prelude and fugue, in Bach’s hands, spoke to something deeply human. The prelude is an invitation into Bach’s fantastical imagination, and the fugue is an extension of the prelude’s expression into the formal complexity of Bach’s contrapuntal mindscape. That Bach’s preludes and fugues capti- vated Haydn and Mozart is evident in their writing; two centuries later, Britten and Shostakovich, too, would call on the same Bachian tradition to give voice to a wholly distinct worldview.

    ANNUAL REPORT 2019/20 Fadi Kheir Fadi LETTERS FROM THE LEADERSHIP The New York Philharmonic’s 2019–20 season certainly saw it all. We recall the remarkable performances ranging from Berlioz to Beethoven, with special pride in the launch of Project 19 — the single largest commissioning program ever created for women composers — honoring the ratification of the 19th Amendment. Together with Lincoln Center we unveiled specific plans for the renovation and re-opening of David Geffen Hall, which will have both great acoustics and also public spaces that can welcome the community. In March came the shock of a worldwide pandemic hurtling down the tracks at us, and on the 10th we played what was to be our final concert of the season. Like all New Yorkers, we tried to come to grips with the life-changing ramifications The Philharmonic responded quickly and in one week created NY Phil Plays On, a portal to hundreds of hours of past performances, to offer joy, pleasure, solace, and comfort in the only way we could. In August we launched NY Phil Bandwagon, bringing live music back to New York. Bandwagon presented 81 concerts from Chris Lee midtown to the far reaches of every one of the five boroughs. In the wake of the Erin Baiano horrific deaths of Black men and women, and the realization that we must all participate to change society, we began the hard work of self-evaluation to create a Philharmonic that is truly equitable, diverse, and inclusive. The severe financial challenge caused by cancelling fully a third of our 2019–20 concerts resulting in the loss of $10 million is obvious.

  • Joyce Yang Piano Blessed With
    Joyce Yang Piano Blessed with “poetic and sensitive pianism” (Washington Post) and a “wondrous sense of color” (San Francisco Classical Voice), pianist Joyce Yang captivates audiences with her virtuosity, lyricism, and interpretive sensitivity. As a Van Cliburn International Piano Competition silver medalist and Avery Fisher Career Grant recipient, Yang showcases her colorful musical personality in solo recitals and collaborations with the world’s top orchestras and chamber musicians. Yang came to international attention in 2005 when she won the silver medal at the 12th Van Cliburn International Piano Competition. The youngest contestant at 19 years old, she took home two additional awards: the Steven De Groote Memorial Award for Best Performance of Chamber Music (with the Takàcs Quartet) and the Beverley Taylor Smith Award for Best Performance of a New Work. Since her spectacular debut, she has blossomed into an “astonishing artist” (Neue Zürcher Zeitung). She has performed as soloist with the New York Philharmonic, Chicago Symphony, Los Angeles Philharmonic, Philadelphia Orchestra, the Baltimore, Detroit, Houston, Milwaukee, San Francisco, Sydney, and Toronto symphony orchestras, Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin, and the BBC Philharmonic (among many others), working with such distinguished conductors as Edo de Waart, Lorin Maazel, James Conlon, Leonard Slatkin, David Robertson, Bramwell Tovey, Peter Oundjian, and Jaap van Zweden. In recital, Yang has taken the stage at New York’s Lincoln Center and Metropolitan Museum; the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC; Chicago’s Symphony Hall; and Zurich’s Tonhalle. Yang kicks off the 2015/16 season with a tour of eight summer festivals (Aspen, Bridgehampton, Grand Tetons, La Jolla, Ravinia, Seattle, Southeastern Piano Festival, and Bravo! Vail) before commencing a steady stream of debuts, return engagements, and notable chamber music concerts.

    PHILIPPE QUINT biography (updated July 2016) Lauded by Daily Telegraph (UK) for his “searingly poetic lyricism” violinist Philippe Quint is carving an unconventional path with his impassioned musical desire for reimagining traditional works, rediscovering neglected repertoire to commissioning works by contemporary composers. His dedication to exploring different styles and genres with an award winning discography has solidified him as one of the foremost violinists of today. Receiving several Grammy nominations for his two albums of Korngold and William Schuman Concertos, Mr. Quint is in constant demand worldwide appearing with major orchestras at venues ranging from the Gewandhaus in Leipzig to Carnegie Hall in New York. Philippe Quint plays the magnificent 1708 "Ruby" Antonio Stradivari violin on loan to him through the generous efforts of The Stradivari Society®. Highlights of the 2015/2016 season included performances with Colorado, Seattle & North Carolina Symphonies, Luzern’s Zaubersee Festival with pianist Marc-Andre Hamelin, and a first visit to Verbier Festival performing with Joshua Bell and Tabea Zimmerman among others. At the invitation of Maestro Vladimir Spivakov, Philippe opened the 28th edition of Colmar Festival dedicated to Jascha Heifetz with Tugan Sokhiev conducting the Orchestre National du Capitole de Toulouse in a performance of Korngold Violin Concerto. Earlier this year he was part of the opening of Mary B. Galvin’s new hall in Chicago hosted by Renee Fleming.
