We had come (perhaps not alone) to the conclusion that our website www.universaledition. com needed a major update. So we listened very carefully to the people who matter most: you, the ensembles, orchestras, festivals, programmers etc. What resulted from our discussions was a completely new website, built from scratch. The aim of the website is not to be cool, hip and covered in web 2.0, but simply to work, be fast, clear, understandable, and give you better access to more information than ever before. We think our web team did an incredible job. The website will be live in time for the Frankfurt Music Fair on 24 March. 4 news UnivErsal EDiTion New editor's report Once again we have published a The full report can be downloaded new editors’ report, containing at www.universaledition.com/edi- details of all new music edited in torsreport.

  • Run Time Error Simon Steen-Andersen JACK Quartet
    Miller Theatre at Columbia University 2015-16 | 27th Season Opening Night Run Time Error Simon Steen-Andersen JACK Quartet Thursday, September 17, 8:00 p.m. From the Executive Director This September we begin Miller Theatre’s 2015-16 season with three incredible collaborations. Tonight you’ll see Danish composer and performer Simon Steen- Andersen join with one of our favorite ensembles, the JACK Quartet, on a very special project. Run Time Error, the video work that opens and closes this evening, invites us to broaden our sense of both sonic and spatial musical possibility, and it does so in a very personal way: by turning the theatre itself into an instrument. Throughout this new season, Miller Theatre will present performances that bring contemporary classical music out of the formal settings of a concert hall, and Steen-Andersen’s work makes for an exhilarating kick-off. Run Time Error is one of several new works created start-to-finish at Miller this month. As part of an annual collaboration with Deborah Cullen, director and chief curator of Columbia’s Miriam and Ira D. Wallach Art Gallery, this is our third time co- commissioning a visual artist to use our lobby as their canvas. This season, Scherezade Garcia has transformed the space with an amazing new work, inviting anyone who steps inside our doors to activate their imagination. Our largest artistic residency is just about to begin: Morningside Lights! A week of free arts workshops for participants of all ages begins this Saturday, and culminates in a magnificent illuminated procession through Morningside Park on September 26.

  • AUGUST 2013 LIST BLU-RAY NEW RELEASES Other Special Offers Still Available…
    tel 0115 982 7500 fax 0115 982 7020 AUGUST 2013 LIST See inside for valid dates Dear Customer Times are tough in many businesses at the moment, and this has been reflected in the record industry recently with the demise of some large distributors around the world. Harmonia Mundi’s Spanish arm and Qualiton in the US are two names that have sadly folded, but it is the loss of Codaex in Europe that has now affected the UK market due to the knock on consequences to Codaex UK. Although technically a separate company, several labels unfortunately became nervous and ‘jumped ship’, meaning that they had to take the difficult decision to cease trading in mid-July. Codaex UK have long supplied many independent labels including Haenssler, MDG and Pentatone, plus most of the popular historical labels such as Archipel, Andromeda, Gala, Myto, Preiser and Australian Eloquence. They provided us with excellent service over the years and will be sorely missed. Some of these labels already have new arrangements in place, and we hope that the rest will follow very soon. Watch this space... On a brighter note, we have managed to find plenty of special offers to present you with this month! See our Chandos Sale on pp.7-9, great reductions on Karajan recordings on p.10, plus much more from labels such as Orfeo, Audite, Naxos, Decca and DG. New releases are a little slim on the ground, but Harmonia Mundi certainly aren’t holding back, releasing brand new discs from both Isabelle Faust and Stile Antico - both can be found on p.2.

  • Biographic Sketch and Work Catalogue
    Biographic Sketch and Work Catalogue Jörg Widmann was born on 19 June 1973 in Munich, the son of a physicist and a teacher and textile artist. His younger sister is the violinist and violin professor Carolin Widmann. He began clarinet lessons at age 7, completing his education with Gerd Starke at the Munich Music Academy and with Charles Neidich at the Juilliard School in New York. His studies in composition began with Kay Westermann when he was 11 years old; they were continued in 1994-1996 with Wilfried Hiller and Hans Werner Henze and concluded in 1997-1999 with Heiner Goebbels and Wolfgang Rihm. Since the fall of 2001, Widmann has been teaching as professor of clarinet at the Musikhochschule Freiburg; eight years later the same institution additionally named him professor of composition. As a clarinetist, Widmann champions chamber music. He concertizes regularly with partners like the oboist Heinz Holliger, the violists Tabea Zimmermann and Kim Kashkashian, the pianists András Schiff and Hélène Grimaud, and the soprano Christine Schäfer. Moreover, he is celebrated at home and abroad as a soloist in clarinet concertos, and several contem- porary composers have dedicated works for or with clarinet to him. Thus he premiered Wolfgang Rihm’s Music for Clarinet and Orchestra in 1999, Aribert Reimann’s Cantus in 2006, Heinz Holliger’s Rechant in 2009, and Peter Ruzicka’s Three Pieces for Clarinet Solo in 2012. In the course of the years 1993 to 2013, i.e., the two decades between his twentieth and his fortieth birthdays, Widmann has written more than eighty compositions.

    Roch-Olivier Maistre, Président du Conseil d’administration Laurent Bayle, Directeur général Vendredi 10 février Ensemble intercontemporain Dans le cadre du cycle Des pieds et des mains Du 10 au 12 février Vendredi 10 février 10 Vendredi | Vous avez la possibilité de consulter les notes de programme en ligne, 2 jours avant chaque concert, à l’adresse suivante : www.citedelamusique.fr Ensemble intercontemporain Ensemble intercontemporain Cycle Des pieds et des mains L’Ensemble intercontemporain présente deux concerts dans le cadre du cycle Des pieds et des mains à la Cité de la musique. Inori (un mot japonais qui signie « invocation, adoration ») est une expérience totale. La mimique quasi dansée des deux « solistes » emprunte le code de ses gestes de prière à diverses religions du monde. À chaque mouvement des mains correspond une note : Inori est en 1974 l’une des premières pièces de Stockhausen à se fonder sur une « formule », sorte d’hyper-mélodie qui non seulement est entendue comme telle mais se retrouve pour ainsi dire étirée à l’échelle de l’œuvre dans son entier, dont elle dicte et caractérise les diérentes parties. Enn, chacune des sections d’Inori se concentre sur un aspect du discours musical – dans l’ordre : rythme, dynamique, mélodie, harmonie et polyphonie –, si bien que la partition, selon le compositeur, « se développe comme une histoire de la musique » reparcourue en accéléré, depuis l’origine jusqu’à nos jours. Dans le saisissant Pas de cinq de Mauricio Kagel, composé en 1965, les cinq exécutants, munis d’une canne, parcourent et sillonnent une surface délimitée en forme de pentagone couvert de diérents matériaux.

  • CURRICULUM VITAE September 2018
    CURRICULUM VITAE September 2018 Wolfgang von Schweinitz Wolfgang von Schweinitz was born on February 7, 1953 in Hamburg, Germany. After initial compositional attempts since 1960, he studied composition in 1968-1976 with Esther Ballou at the American University in Washington, D.C., with Ernst Gernot Klussmann and György Ligeti at the State Music Conservatory in Hamburg, and with John Chowning at the Center for Computer Research in Music and Acoustics in Stanford, California. Then he pursued his freelance composing work, living in Munich, Rome and Berlin, for twelve years in the countryside of Northern Germany and from 1993 to 2007 again in Berlin. In 1980 he lectured at the International Summer Courses for New Music in Darmstadt, and in 1994-1996 he was a guest professor at the Music Conservatory “Franz Liszt” in Weimar, Germany. He is currently based in Southern California, where he assumed James Tenney’s teaching position in September 2007 as a professor at the California Institute of the Arts. Since 1997, his compositions have been concerned with researching and establishing microtonal tuning and ensemble playing techniques based on non-tempered just intonation.
