    History of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra

    HISTORY OF THE PITTSBURGH SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA For more than 119 years, the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra has been an essential part of Pittsburgh’s cultural landscape. The Pittsburgh Symphony, known for its artistic excellence, is credited with a rich history of the world’s finest conductors and musicians, and a strong commitment to the Pittsburgh region and its citizens. This tradition was furthered in fall 2008, when Austrian conductor Manfred Honeck assumed the position of music director with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra. Heading the list of internationally recognized conductors to have led the Pittsburgh Symphony is Victor Herbert, music director between 1898 and 1904, who influenced the early development of the symphony. Preceding Herbert was Frederic Archer (1896-1899), the first Pittsburgh Orchestra conductor. The symphony’s solidification as an American institution took place in the late 1930s under the direction of Maestro Otto Klemperer. Conductors prior to Klemperer were Emil Paur (1904-1910), Elias Breeskin (1926-1930) and Antonio Modarelli (1930-1937). From 1938 to 1948, under the dynamic directorship of Fritz Reiner, the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra embarked on a new phase of its history, making its first international tour and its first commercial recording. The Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra’s standard of excellence was maintained and enhanced through the inspired leadership of William Steinberg during his quarter-century as music director between 1952 and 1976. André Previn (1976-1984) led the Orchestra to new heights through tours, recordings and television, including the PBS series, “Previn and the Pittsburgh.” Lorin Maazel began his relationship with the Pittsburgh Symphony in 1984 as music consultant but later served as a highly regarded music director from 1988 to 1996.

    VENDREDI 6 SEPTEMBRE - 20H Piotr Ilitch Tchaïkovski Concerto pour piano n° 1 entracte Richard Strauss Une vie de héros septembre 2013 septembre | Vendredi 6 | Vendredi Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra Manfred Honeck, direction Yuja Wang, piano Concert diffusé le 2 octobre à 20h sur France Musique. Fin du concert vers 22h. Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra Orchestra Symphony Pittsburgh Piotr Ilitch Tchaïkovski (1840-1893) Concerto pour piano et orchestre n° 1 en si bémol mineur op. 23 Allegro non troppo et molto maestoso Andantino semplice Allegro con fuoco Composition : 1874-février 1875. Révisions : été 1879, décembre 1888. Dédicace : d’abord à Nikolaï Rubinstein, puis à Hans von Bülow. Création : 13 octobre 1875, à Boston, par Hans von Bülow au piano et le Boston Symphony Orchestra sous la direction de Benjamin Boston Lang. Durée : environ 35 minutes. La dialectique soliste versus orchestre, élaborée par le concerto classique et portée à son apogée par le romantisme, joue à plein dans le Concerto pour piano n° 1 de Tchaïkovski, qui est aujourd’hui l’un des concertos pour piano les plus aimés et les plus interprétés du répertoire, aux côtés du Concerto « Empereur » de Beethoven ou des Concertos n° 2 et 3 de Rachmaninov. La réaction du grand pianiste Nicolaï Rubinstein, lorsque Tchaïkovski soumit à l’automne 1874 la partition tout juste achevée à son approbation, ne laissait pourtant pas augurer d’un tel succès. Le compositeur, novice dans l’art du concerto, avait voulu l’avis d’un virtuose sur l’écriture de la partie soliste (Tchaïkovski était bon pianiste, mais n’avait rien d’un prodige du clavier à la Rachmaninov ou à la Prokofiev).
