  • Celebrate Beethoven Catalogue Ludwig Van Beethoven (1770–1827)
    CELEBRATE BEETHOVEN CATALOGUE LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN (1770–1827) Born in Bonn in 1770, the eldest son of a singer in the Kapelle of the Archbishop-Elector of Cologne and grandson of the Archbishop’s Kapellmeister, Beethoven moved in 1792 to Vienna. There he had some lessons from Haydn and others, quickly establishing himself as a remarkable keyboard player and original composer. By 1815 increasing deafness had made public performance impossible and accentuated existing eccentricities of character, patiently tolerated by a series of rich patrons and his royal pupil the Archduke Rudolph. Beethoven did much to enlarge the possibilities of music and widen the horizons of later generations of composers. To his contemporaries he was sometimes a controversial figure, making heavy demands on listeners by both the length and the complexity of his writing, as he explored new fields of music. Beethoven’s monumental contribution to Western classical music is celebrated here in this definitive collection marking the 250th anniversary of the composer’s birth. ThisCELEBRATE BEETHOVEN catalogue contains an impressive collection of works by this master composer across the Naxos Music Group labels.

  • Encounter with Stradivari 2007
    The Châteauville Foundation 10th Anniversary Celebration Encounter with Stradivari 2007 Sunday, 7 October 2007 Theatre House Castleton Farms, Virginia Presenting Sponsor Supported by Maestro Lorin Maazel President, Châteauville Foundation c Andrew Garn Dear Friends, Dietlinde & I could not be more thrilled to have all of you with us for this extraordinary afternoon and evening, celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Châteauville Foundation and our Theatre House at Castleton Farms. Today’s “Encounter with Stradivari” has brought a magnificent collection of instruments, once in the hands of Paganini, Joachim, Heifetz and Piatigorsky, together for the first time in America. Even more thrilling is to hear them played in this welcoming space by artists who carry forward so beautifully the legacy of their predecessors, in a spirit of continuity and renewal that mirrors the vision we have had for Castleton from the start. That we have been able to realize this vision ever more fully in recent years is a testament to the uniqueness of our performance space and the magical setting here in Castleton. It is a place where world-class artists from Mstislav Rostropovich to Claire Bloom to James Galway have appeared with a warmth and intimacy that cannot be found elsewhere. Such presentations will always be part of our mission. What we have discovered most recently is the means to nurture young talent across a range of disciplines through The Castleton Residencies. Our first effort at presenting chamber opera at the Theatre House 18 months ago unlocked a potential almost without limit, bringing the stars of the future and experienced mentors to live and work together intensively, with the depth and breadth that the form demands.
