Although it bears the name Rugby, the composer himself insisted that this work was not programmatic in a traditional sense. Despite what Honegger may have said, it takes little imagination to find oneself in the middle of the pitch dodging tack- les left and right from the very first note. Immediately from the downbeat it is apparent that Honegger is not alluding to two-hand-touch rugby, but rather the sport in its full contact, “hold no pris- oners” variety.

  • 25. Mai 2015 Programm Grusswort Der Gastgeber
    22. - 25. MAI 2015 PROGRAMM GRUSSWORT DER GASTGEBER Wir möchten Sie hier auf der Brunegg herzlich willkommen heissen. Esther Hoppe und Jürg Dähler haben mit ihren Kolleginnen und Kollegen ein Programm zusammengestellt, das schon bei der ersten Ankündigung begeisterte Kommentare ausgelöst hat. Wir freuen uns mit Ihnen auf ein hervorragendes musikalisches Erlebnis. Bis anhin hatten wir die Räumlichkeiten stets nur für private Anlässe benützt. Dass nun die Öffentlichkeit Zutritt hat, ist vollkommen neu, und wir wollen damit eine neue Tradition beginnen. Da wir hier unser privates Wohnen eingerichtet haben, bitten wir Sie um Verständnis, wenn Sie keinen Zutritt in unsere Wohnräume erhalten. Diese stehen übrigens zum Teil den Künstlern zur Verfügung. Brunegg war seit dem Beginn des 19. Jahrhunderts im Besitz der Familie Hünerwadel von Lenzburg und gelangte durch die Heirat von Marie Pauline mit Adolf von Salis, dem Vater von Jean Rudolf von Salis, in unsere Familie. Es wurde im Sommer sehr lebhaft zu geselligem Zusammensein genutzt; es wurde gewohnt, gespielt, geschrieben und diskutiert. Wir selber haben seit den 1990er Jahren Renovations- und Umbauarbeiten machen lassen; die Unterburg erhielt zwei moderne Wohnungen und den Festraum in der Tenne. Das Schloss oben und die Gartenanlagen wurden tiefgreifenden Restaurierungen und Erneuerungen unterzogen; die gesamte Anlage wurde von einem halb ruinenhaften in den heutigen, bequem bewohn- und bespielbaren Zustand umgewandelt. Wir hoffen, dass Sie das mit uns geniessen können und wünschen Ihnen ein gelungenes Pfingstfestival! Thomas und Elisabeth von Salis Gastgeber EDITORIAL DER KÜNSTLERISCHEN LEITUNG Die Historie des Schlosses Brunegg in seinem heute rundum erneuerten Gewand verführt und verpflichtet zu gleichen Teilen, an diesem geschichtsträchtigen Ort ein Festival zu gestalten, welches Tradition und Innovation in sinnlicher Art und Weise verbindet.

  • By Chau-Yee Lo
    Dramatizing the Harpsichord: The Harpsichord Music of Elliott Carter by Chau-Yee Lo “I regard my scores as scenarios, auditory scenarios, for performers to act out their instruments, dramatizing the players as individuals and partici- pants in the ensemble.”1 Elliott Carter has often stated that this is his creative standpoint, his works from solo to orchestral pieces growing from the dramatic possibilities inherent in the sounds of the instruments. In this article I will investigate how and to what extent this applies to Carter’s harp- sichord music. Carter has written two works for the harpsichord: Sonata for Flute, Oboe, Cello, and Harpsichord was completed in 1952, and Double Concerto for Harpsichord and Piano with Two Chamber Orchestras in 1961. Both commissions were initiated by harpsichordists: the first by Sylvia Marlowe (1908–81) and the Harpsichord Quartet of New York, for whom the Sonata was written, the latter by Ralph Kirkpatrick (1911–84), who had been Carter’s fellow student at Harvard. Both works encapsulate a significant development in Carter’s technique of composition, and bear evidence of his changing approach to music in the 1950s. Shortly after completing the Double Concerto Carter started writing down the interval combinations he had frequently been using. This exercise continued and became more systematic over the next two decades, and the result is now published as the Harmony Book.2 Carter came to write for the harpsichord for the first time in the Sonata. Here the harpsichord is the only soloist, the other instruments being used as a frame. In particular Carter emphasizes the wide range of tone colours available on the modern harpsichord, echoing these in the different musi- cal characters of the other instruments.

Très tôt «contaminé par le virus de la musique», il commence à jouer du jazz à la trompette. L’occasion lui est offerte d’entendre l’une des toutes premières interprétations du Sacre du printemps aux États-Unis, par le Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra – événement à l’origine de sa fascination profonde et durable pour Stravinsky et pour le rythme. Il s’installe ensuite à Boston, où il suit, en privé, l’enseignement de Roger Sessions, Walter Piston et Nicolas Slonimsky. Il est probable qu’il ait croi- sé la route d’Arnold Schoenberg qui avait fui l’Europe en proie au nazisme. Les sympathies communistes de Nancarrow le con- vainquent de participer à la Guerre civile d’Espagne en 1937– 1938 avec la Brigade Abraham Lincoln.

  • MARC ALBRECHT Conductor
    MARC ALBRECHT Conductor “With Marc Albrecht, a man of the late romantic era stands on the podium, a man who perfectly balances the exact dose of the Strauss agogics […] What a Strauss dream in the open air!” – concerti, 2018 Since 2011 Marc Albrecht has been Music Director of the Dutch National Opera, the Netherlands Philharmonic and the Netherlands Chamber Orchestra. In May 2016, the National Opera Amsterdam was awarded with the International Opera Award “Opera House of the Year”. Albrecht himself received the prestigious award 2019 in the category “Conductor of the Year”. His Music Director contract has been extended until the summer of 2020. Marc Albrecht is a highly requested guest in international opera houses. In March 2013, he gave his debut at the Teatro alla Scala Milan with “Die Frau ohne Schatten” (direction: Claus Guth), and in August 2017, he was invited back to conduct “Hänsel and Gretel”. He gave guest performances at the Bayreuther Festspiele (2003-2006) with “Der fliegende Holländer” as well as Janáček’s “From the House of the Dead” at the Teatro Real in Madrid. Marc Albrecht also maintains a close relationship with the Semperoper Dresden, where he has conducted “Wozzeck”, “La Damnation de Faust” and most recently, in 2009, “Elektra”, amongst others. At the Bayerische Staatsoper, he celebrated notable success with Henze’s “Die Bassariden” (direction: Christoph Loy) in 2008 and in the subsequent year at the Royal Opera House Covent Garden with “Der fliegende Holländer”. The Theater an der Wien regularly invites him to conduct, most recently Henze’s “Der Prinz von Homburg” in 2011 and “Elegie für Junge Liebende” in 2017.
