Cristian Măcelaru Associate Conductor Cristian Măcelaru Associate Conductor 2013-2014 Cristian Măcelaru has established an exciting and highly regarded presence through his thoughtful interpretations, poise, and energetic conviction on the podium. Associate conductor of The Philadelphia Orchestra, he began his tenure at that ensemble as assistant conductor in September 2011; in recognition of his artistic contributions to the Orchestra, his title was elevated to associate conductor in November 2012. In addition to assisting Yannick Nézet-Séguin and leading several non- subscription performances, Mr. Măcelaru conducts his own subscription week in the 2013-14 season, after having stepped in unexpectedly to make his Orchestra subscription debut in April 2013 in place of Jaap van Zweden. Of the substitution, the Chestnut Hill Local said: “[Măcelaru] led a stunning performance of ‘Death and Transfiguration’ and a charming reading of the Suite from the opera ‘Der Rosenkavalier’. … And the Philadelphians sounded fabulous.” Mr. Măcelaru recently made two overwhelmingly successful appearances with the Chicago Symphony on subscription programs two seasons in a row as a replacement for Pierre Boulez. The first was in February 2012 and the subsequent was in March 2013, with the Chicago Sun-Times exclaiming: “Macelaru is the real thing, displaying confidence without arrogance and offering expressiveness without excess demonstration.” In addition to a subscription week in Philadelphia, Mr. Măcelaru’s 2013-14 season includes a subscription debut with the National Symphony and violinist Anne-Sophie Mutter as soloist, a return to the Chicago Symphony, and appearances with the Florida Orchestra, the Naples Philharmonic, and the Alabama and San Antonio symphonies. He also returns to his home country to lead the National Radio Orchestra of Romania in performances of Mozart’s Requiem. Mr. Măcelaru’s 2012-13 season began with his Carnegie Hall conducting debut and a return to Chicago’s Orchestra Hall in October, both at the invitation of the Solti Foundation, leading a work on the Solti World Orchestra for Peace program shared alongside Valery Gergiev in celebration of the centennial of Solti’s birth. The season continued with debuts at the Atlanta Symphony, the Orchestre Métropolitain, the Florida Orchestra, and the Alabama Symphony, plus returns to the Baltimore and Chicago symphonies. His 2013 summer appearances included the Houston and Baltimore symphonies and multiple performances with The Philadelphia Orchestra, at the Bravo! Vail festival, the Saratoga Performing Arts Center, and the Mann Center, including a special Van Cliburn tribute program. Highlights of previous seasons included engagements with the Baltimore, Houston, Pittsburgh, and San Diego symphonies; the Civic Orchestra of Chicago; the Banatul Philharmonic; DaCamera of Houston; the Syzygy Ensemble; the Oberlin Orchestra; and at the Sarasota Music Festival. Mr. Măcelaru made his professional debut conducting Puccini’s Madame Butterfly at Houston Grand Opera in November 2010, after collaborating with Patrick Summers on the world premiere of Jake Heggie’s Moby Dick as assistant conductor of Dallas Opera. With a passion for diverse repertoire, Mr. Măcelaru led the Tanglewood Music Center Orchestra in the US premiere of Colin Matthews’s Turning Point in 2010 as part of the Tanglewood Contemporary Music Festival. As the founder and artistic director of the Crisalis Music Project, Mr. Măcelaru spearheaded a program in which young musicians perform in a variety of settings, side-by-side with established, renowned artists. Their groundbreaking first season produced and presented concerts featuring chamber ensembles, a chamber orchestra, a tango operetta, and collaborations with dancer Susana Collins, which resulted in a choreographed performance of Vivaldi/Piazzolla’s Eight Seasons. An accomplished violinist from an early age, Mr. Măcelaru was the youngest concertmaster in the history of the Miami Symphony and made his Carnegie Hall debut with that orchestra at age 19. He also played in the first violin section of the Houston Symphony for two seasons. Formerly he held the position of resident conductor at Rice University’s Shepherd School of Music, where he was music director of the Campanile Orchestra, assistant conductor to Larry Rachleff, and conductor for the Opera Department. A proponent of music education, Mr. Măcelaru served as a conductor with the Houston Youth Symphony, where he also conceptualized and created a successful chamber music program. Last year Mr. Măcelaru received the 2012 Sir Georg Solti Emerging Conductor Award, a prestigious honor only awarded once before in the Foundation’s history. He has participated in the conducting programs of the Tanglewood Music Center and the Aspen Music Festival, studying under David Zinman, Murry Sidlin, Rafael Frühbeck de Burgos, Robert Spano, Oliver Knussen, and Stefan Asbury. Mr. Măcelaru’s main studies were with Mr. Rachleff at Rice University, where he received his Master of Music degree in conducting as well as a master’s in violin performance. He completed undergraduate studies in violin performance at the University of Miami. Mr. Măcelaru currently resides in Philadelphia with his wife, Cheryl, and children, Beniamin and Maria. 8/2013 .

  • Jean-Guihen Queyras Violoncello
    JEAN-GUIHEN QUEYRAS VIOLONCELLO Biography Curiosity, diversity and a firm focus on the music itself characterize the artistic work of Jean- Guihen Queyras. Whether on stage or on record, one experiences an artist dedicated completely and passionately to the music, whose humble and quite unpretentious treatment of the score reflects its clear, undistorted essence. The inner motivations of composer, performer and audience must all be in tune with one another in order to bring about an outstanding concert experience: Jean-Guihen Queyras learnt this interpretative approach from Pierre Boulez, with whom he established a long artistic partnership. This philosophy, alongside a flawless technique and a clear, engaging tone, also shapes Jean-Guihen Queyras’ approach to every performance and his absolute commitment to the music itself. His approaches to early music – as in his collaborations with the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra and the Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin – and to contemporary music are equally thorough. He has given world premieres of works by, among others, Ivan Fedele, Gilbert Amy, Bruno Mantovani, Michael Jarrell, Johannes-Maria Staud, Thomas Larcher and Tristan Murail. Conducted by the composer, he recorded Peter Eötvös’ Cello Concerto to mark his 70th birthday in November 2014. Jean-Guihen Queyras was a founding member of the Arcanto Quartet and forms a celebrated trio with Isabelle Faust and Alexander Melnikov; the latter is, alongside Alexandre Tharaud, a regular accompanist. He has also collaborated with zarb specialists Bijan and Keyvan Chemirani on a Mediterranean programme. The versatility in his music-making has led to many concert halls, festivals and orchestras inviting Jean-Guihen to be Artist in Residence, including the Concertgebouw Amsterdam and the Festival d’Aix-en-Provence, Vredenburg Utrecht, De Bijloke Ghent and the Orchestre Philharmonique de Strasbourg.

  • Dear Music Lover, Welcome to the 23Rd Year of Music at the National
    Dear Music Lover, Welcome to the 23rd year of music at the National Museum of Women in the Arts. We are delighted to have been able to reschedule two of the concerts cancelled last season due to COVID-19 and to have added a third. This season, concerts will begin in the spring of 2021. Our concern for audience and artist safety led us to delay the season with the hope that it will be safer to congregate in person at that time. However we anticipate at this time that the concerts will be virtual. If things do change, we will certainly notify you. Our season kicks off on March 31 with the acclaimed McDermott Trio, featuring Anne-Marie, Kerry, and Maureen McDermott, with master violist Paul Neubauer. The McDermott Trio has been recognized as one of the most exciting trios of their generation and Neubauer has been called "a master musician" by the New York Times due to his exceptional musicality and effortless playing. On May 12, we welcome the talented Stefania Dovhan, who has performed at many opera houses including the Royal Opera House, the New York City Opera, and the Baltimore Lyric Opera. We will close out the season on June 2 with the amazing violinist Jennifer Koh, who is known for her intense, commanding performances delivered with dazzling virtuosity and technical assurance. Since 1998, we have presented more than sixty-nine free concerts featuring emerging and established women musicians who have brought to life the halls of this great museum with their artistry and talent. Thank you for your continued support of the Shenson Chamber Music Concert Series.

Stravinsky, Tempo, and Le sacre Erica Heisler Buxbaum Performing the works of Igor Stravinsky precisely as he intended would appear to be an uncomplicated matter: Stravinsky notated his scores in great detail, conducted recorded performances of many of his works, and wrote commentaries that contain a great deal of specific performance information. Stravinsky's recordings and published statements, however, raise as many questions as they answer about the determination of tempo and the documentary value of recordings. Like Wagner, Stravinsky believed that the establishment of the proper tempo for a work was crucial and declared that "a piece of mine can survive almost anything but wrong or uncertain tempo." Stravinsky notated his tempi precisely with both Italian words and metronome markings and asserted on many occasions that the primary value of his recordings was that they demonstrated the proper tempi for his works.

It was produced on May 15, 1913, at the TIt/3d.tre des Champs Elysees, Paris, by the Ballets Russes of Sergei Diaghilev. The choreography was by Nijinsky, who also danced the role of the Young Man. f elix is Debussy's most "modern" composition, the most advanced in method and style , the most prophetic of such future d ~ vcJopm e nt s as the pointillism of Webern and the search for new sonorities by electronic means. The characteristic whole-tone scale of Debussy is here employed toward almost atonal ends. The gigantic orchestral apparatus is used with the utmost eco nomy as well as imagina­ tive subtlety. It is interesting to lea rn that the conductor of the present performances, Pierre Boulez, studied f eliX with special care when he was a student of Oliver Messiaen. For the sake of historical correctness, one must give the "argument" that was published at the time of the premiere, the synopsis of the action as conceived by Nijinsky and transformed into sound by Debussy.

  • A Listening Guide for the Indispensable Composers by Anthony Tommasini
    A Listening Guide for The Indispensable Composers by Anthony Tommasini 1 The Indispensable Composers: A Personal Guide Anthony Tommasini A listening guide INTRODUCTION: The Greatness Complex Bach, Mass in B Minor I: Kyrie I begin the book with my recollection of being about thirteen and putting on a recording of Bach’s Mass in B Minor for the first time. I remember being immediately struck by the austere intensity of the opening choral singing of the word “Kyrie.” But I also remember feeling surprised by a melodic/harmonic shift in the opening moments that didn’t do what I thought it would. I guess I was already a musician wanting to know more, to know why the music was the way it was. Here’s the grave, stirring performance of the Kyrie from the 1952 recording I listened to, with Herbert von Karajan conducting the Vienna Philharmonic. Though, as I grew to realize, it’s a very old-school approach to Bach. Herbert von Karajan, conductor; Vienna Philharmonic (12:17) Today I much prefer more vibrant and transparent accounts, like this great performance from Philippe Herreweghe’s 1996 recording with the chorus and orchestra of the Collegium Vocale, which is almost three minutes shorter. Philippe Herreweghe, conductor; Collegium Vocale Gent (9:29) Grieg, “Shepherd Boy” Arthur Rubinstein, piano Album: “Rubinstein Plays Grieg” (3:26) As a child I loved “Rubinstein Plays Grieg,” an album featuring the great pianist Arthur Rubinstein playing piano works by Grieg, including several selections from the composer’s volumes of short, imaginative “Lyrical Pieces.” My favorite was “The Shepherd Boy,” a wistful piece with an intense middle section.

  • Pierre Boulez Rituel
    PROGRAM NOTES by Phillip Huscher Pierre Boulez Born March 26, 1925, Montbrison, France. Currently resides in Paris, France. Rituel (In memoriam Bruno Maderna) Boulez composed this work in 1974 and 1975, and conducted the first performance on April 2, 1975, in London. The score calls for three flutes and two alto flutes, three oboes and english horn, three clarinets, E- flat clarinet and bass clarinet, alto saxophone, four bassoons, six horns, four trumpets, four trombones, six violins, two violas, two cellos, and a percussion battery consisting of tablas, japanese bells, woodblocks, japanese woodblock, maracas, tambourine, sizzle cymbal, turkish cymbal, chinese cymbal, cow bells, snare drums (with and without snares), guiros, bongo, claves, maracas-tubes, triangles, hand drums, castanets, temple blocks, tom-toms, log drum, conga, gongs, and tam-tams. Performance time is approximately twenty- five minutes. Bruno Maderna died on November 13, 1973. For many years he had been a close friend of Pierre Boulez (and a true friend of all those involved in new music activities) and a treasured colleague; like Boulez, he had made his mark both as a composer and as a conductor. “In fact, to get any real idea of what he was like as a person,” Boulez wrote at the time of his death, “the conductor and the composer must be taken together; for Maderna was a practical person, equally close to music whether he was performing or composing.” In 1974 Boulez began Rituel as a memorial piece in honor of Maderna. (In the catalog of his works, Rituel follows . explosante-fixe . ., composed in 1971 as a homage to Stravinsky.) The score was completed and performed in 1975.
