Mozart - Mendelssohn Violin Concertos Schubert - Rondo Vesko Eschkenazy
Mozart - Mendelssohn Violin Concertos Schubert - Rondo Vesko Eschkenazy Concertgebouw Chamber Orchestra Marco Boni Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Violin Concerto No. 5 in A, KV 219 (1756-1791) Cadenzas: Joseph Joachim 1 Allegro aperto 10' 00" 2 Adagio 10' 25" 3 Rondeau (Tempo di menuetto) 8' 33" Franz Schubert Rondo in A for violin and strings, D. 438 (1797-1828) 4 Adagio – Allegro giusto 13' 59" Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy Violin Concerto in D minor (1809-1847) 5 Allegro molto 9' 15" 6 Andante 7' 59" 7 Allegro 4' 52" Vesko Eschkenazy, violin (Guarneri del Gesù, 1738) Concertgebouw Chamber Orchestra Conducted by Marco Boni Recorded August 2001, MCO Studio 1, Hilversum, The Netherlands Recording producer: Job Maarse Balance engineer: Erdo Groot Recording engineer: Matthijs Ruijter Editor: Dirk Fischer STROKES OF YOUTHFUL GENIUS In the year of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s birth, 1756, his father Leopold published one of the most influential of all violin methods: The School of Violin Playing. It was therefore hardly surprising that young Wolfgang was taught the violin from an early age – although no one could have predicted his astounding progress. During the 1770s, he made appearances as a violin soloist in several Austro-German musical centres (including Vienna), and following one concert in Munich in 1777, reported proudly to Leopold: "I played as if I were the greatest fiddler in all of Europe." – Four out of the five authenticated violin concertos by Mozart were composed during an eight-month period between April and December 1775, probably as a means of ingratiating himself with his employer, the Archbishop of Salzburg. -

GIOVANNI GUZZO, Violin
GIOVANNI GUZZO, violin “Guzzo’s technique was immaculate, and his Szymanowski was also stylish and driven. He ripped through the cadenza with terrific verve and left me wanting to hear much more from him”. Andrew Morris, Classicalsource 30 year old violinist Giovanni Guzzo is rapidly rising as one of the most versatile performers of his generation. Born in Venezuela to parents of Italian and Venezuelan heritage, he has captivated audiences around the world with his unique and passionate approach to his performances. Following his sensational solo debut with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in London, critics described him as a “wonderfully magnetic” and “commanding” performer. Giovanni started his musical studies with the piano at the age of five and violin at the age of six. At the age of 12 he became the youngest violinist to win the National Violin Competition “Juan Bautista Plaza” in Venezuela. A protégé of the renowned French virtuoso violinist Maurice Hasson, Giovanni was granted a scholarship to study at the Royal Academy of Music in London, from where he graduated with the highest honours. He previously studied with Zakhar Bron at the “Escuela Superior de Musica Reina Sofia” in Madrid. A keen recitalist and chamber musician, Giovanni has worked closely with some of today’s leading musicians, including Martha Argerich, Joshua Bell, Martin Fröst, Daniel Hope, Stephen Hough, Kristóf Baráti, Mats Lidstrom, Gábor Takács-Nagy, István Várdai, the Takacs Quartet and Maxim Vengerov, to name but a few. His talent has been recognised with numerous awards including Her Majesty the Queen’s commendation for Excellence, Gold medal at Marlow Music Festival, PROMIS award given by the London Symphony Orchestra, and the Manoug Parikian and Myra Hess award. -
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. -

Maar nadat de 58-jarige componist een solo-optreden had bijgewoond van de eerste klarinettist van de hofkapel van Meiningen (het top orkest van die tijd) vond hij dat het instrument een nog prominentere rol in zijn muziek ver- diende. Geïnspireerd door het spel van deze Richard Mühlfeld schreef hij een trio en een kwintet, allebei met een solopartij die het hart van klarinettisten tot in de verste uithoeken van de wereld nog altijd sneller doet kloppen. Ze waren Brahms even lief, die twee werken, heeft hij zelf herhaaldelijk gezegd. Maar mu- sici en publiek dachten en denken er anders over. Het Trio voor klarinet, cello en piano kwam al spoedig in de schaduw te staan van het immens populaire Kwintet voor klarinet, twee violen, altviool en cello met zijn herfstachtige, melancholieke ook troostende schoonheid.
