DIRECTORY / LIBRARY of FAMOUS HISTORICAL CELLISTS Volume I (Up to 1789) DIRECTORY / LIBRARY OF FAMOUS HISTORICAL CELLISTS Volume I (up to 1789) DIRECTORIO / BIBLIOTECA DE VIOLONCELLISTAS HISTORICOS FAMOSOS Volumen I (hasta 1789) johnstone-music ENGLISH - The johnstone-music DIRECTORY / LIBRARY OF FAMOUS HISTORICAL CELLISTS PRESENTATION: Throughout history a number of interesting books have been published on the Cello – its origins, the performers, the makers/luthiers, and the repertoire. However, when reference is made to cellists they are almost always classified and organized according to national music ‘schools’. There has always been a necessity to see a real list of those contemporary cellists in each era in chronological form, with details of professional positions or activities, and this is exactly what johnstone-music offers with this unique presentation. IMPORTANT PRELIMINARY NOTE: Many people will probably simply browse with curiosity through this wonderful list of cellists who had such important careers in their time. However, it’s always a good idea to be able to do an easy search for a particular cellist that interests you! All individual inclusions of this library of cellists are in chronological order, following the order of the year of death. Why this method, and not by the more commonly used birth-year as a guide? Well, some cellists were child prodigies and already famous in their teens, whilst others took several decades before establishing themselves. Some enjoyed a very long life, such as Pau Casals, and were very active after reaching 65 years old – others unfortunately did not even reach 65 years old (or a few even to barely half this number). That is to say that sometimes cellists of a same birth year often did not coincide musically at all. Therefore this present system is probably a much more accurate guide of their real working periods and their musical influences. The chances are that you will probably not know exactly where to find the cellist you are searching for, though you probably know his/her musical period. Therefore, each volume gives all names with life-spans of a particular period at the beginning in alphabetical order, and from this you will be easily able to ascertain the relevant years for a more detailed entry. If the cellist that you are looking for is not where you imagine it to be, then try the previous or following period/volume. Enjoy! The order of text information is as follows: it should be obvious to follow! Name : Dates : Country: Positions: Premieres given-Dedications received: Music/Publications: Friendships: Anecdotes: johnstone-music article (if applicable) johnstone-music ESPAÑOL - johnstone-music DIRECTORIO / BIBLIOTECA DE VIOLONCELLISTAS HISTORICOS FAMOSOS PRESENTACIÓN: A lo largo de la historia se han publicado un número de libros interesantes sobre el violoncello – sus orígenes, los intérpretes, sus lutieres y su repertorio. Sin embargo, cuando se hace referencia a los violoncellistas, están casi siempre clasificados y organizados según las ‘escuelas nacionales’ de violoncello. Siempre ha existido una necesidad de ver una lista real de los cellistas contemporáneos en cada época de forma cronológica (con sus respectivas posiciones o actividades), y esto es exactamente lo que johnstone-music ofrece con este trabajo único. NOTA IMPORTANTE PRELIMINARIA: Probablemente mucha gente va a ojear con cierta curiosidad esta lista maravillosa de violoncellistas quienes tuvieron unas carreras tan importantes en su tiempo. Sin embargo, es una buena idea poder hacer una búsqueda fácil para un violoncellista en particular que te interesa. Todas las inclusiones individuales de esta biblioteca cellística están en orden cronológico,siguiendo el año de fallecimiento del cellista. ¿Y por qué este método, y no el sistema más común del año de nacimiento? Pues, algunos violoncellistas fueron prodigios y ya celebres casi de adolescentes, mientras que otros necesitaban varias décadas antes de establecer sus nombres. Algunos disfrutaron de una vida muy larga, como Pau Casals, y fueron muy activos después de cumplir 65 años – otros no llegaban desgraciadamente ni a los 65 años de edad (algunos incluso apenas a la mitad de este número). Con todo esto queremos decir que algunas veces violoncellistas nacidos en el mismo año no coincidieron musicalmente para nada. Por tanto, este sistema utilizado es probablemente una guía mucho más fiel de sus periodos reales de trabajo y de sus influencias musicales. Probablemente no vas a saber exactamente dónde encontrar el violoncellista que buscas, aunque tal vez sabrás de su época musical. Así que el índice en cada volumen da todos los nombres (y fechas) al principio en orden alfabético, y de esto puedes averiguar fácilmente los años relevantes e ir a su entrada más detallada. Si el/la violoncellista que estás buscando no está donde lo imaginas, prueba el periodo/volumen anterior o posterior ¡Disfrútalo! El orden de información en los textos es el siguiente: ¡debería ser fácil de seguir!

  • Discographie - Tomaso Antonio Vitali – Ciaconna
    Discographie - Tomaso Antonio Vitali – Ciaconna Présentation Depuis l’époque romantique, tous les violonistes ont joué la fameuse Chaconne de Tomaso Antonio Vitali. Mais la partition dont ils disposaient était toujours basée sur l’édition complètement modifiée qu’en avait faite le virtuose Ferdinand David vers 1860. Certains aspects étranges et les modulations inattendues de cette Chaconne ont toujours surpris les « baroqueux » qui l’on toujours considérée comme un « faux ». Repartant du manuscrit original, Stéphanie de Failly, rend à cette composition boudée une lumière nouvelle, qui la relie aux autres compositions de Tomaso Antonio Vitali et à celles de son père Giovanni Battista, dont l’inventivité et les pièces et danses variées conduisent directement aux extravagances de la Chaconne ! Distribution Stéphanie de Failly, violon Benjamin Glorieux, cello François Joubert-Caillet, basse de viole Quito Gato, théorbe & guitare Thierry Gomar, percussions Marion Fourquier, Harpe Lionel Desmeules, orgue Articles de presse LA LIBRE BELGIQUE Date ? Nicolas BLANMONT La Chaconne de Tomaso Antonio Vitali La chaconne de Tomaso Antonio Vitali (1663-1745) est un classique dans le répertoire des violonistes, mais la version le plus souvent jouée est une version transformée en 1860 par le violoniste Ferdinand David, virtuose romantique et créateur du concerto en mi mineur de Mendelssohn. Au point qu’on avait fini par considérer cette chaconne comme un faux. Retournant au manuscrit original conservé à Dresde, Stéphanie de Failly, accompagnée de son ensemble Clematis, rend avec virtuosité et vérité son lustre original à la composition du Vitalino, le petit Vitali : c’est que Tomaso était le fils d’un autre violoniste virtuose de l’époque baroque, Giovanni Battista.

INTRODUZIONE La Serenata à 3, RV 690, nota anche con l’incipit «Mio cor, povero cor», compo‑ sta da Antonio Vivaldi presumibilmente verso la fine della seconda decade del Settecento, è dedicata al «Mar[quis] du Toureil». Nel 1982 Michael Talbot, in un articolo sulle serenate vivaldiane, avanzò l’ipotesi – accolta con favore dagli stu‑ diosi e fino a oggi mai confutata – che il misterioso dedicatario fosse identificabile con l’abate tolosano Jean de Tourreil e che il testo della serenata fosse l’allegoria del processo cui fu sottoposto per ordine del Sant’Uffizio romano a causa della sua affiliazione al giansenismo.1 Recenti studi, però, hanno rivelato che tra il 1715 e il 1726 a Venezia visse un certo marchese «Anna Marco de Torel», cavaliere francese, che nell’autunno del 1717 tenne a battesimo Daniel Mauro, nipote di Antonio Vivaldi, nato dal matri‑ monio tra Cecilia, sorella del compositore, e il copista di musica Giovanni Antonio.2 Il suo nome esatto era Anne‑Marc Goislard du Toureil e certamente questi è il «Mar[quis] du Toureil» citato da Antonio Vivaldi sul frontespizio della Serenata à 3.

  • TITOLO UNIFORME MUSICALE Titolo Uniforme Musicale
    TITOLO UNIFORME MUSICALE Titolo uniforme musicale _____________________ Questo documento nasce nell’ambito dell’attività dell’ICCU relativa alla redazione e alla promozione di normative e di standard sia a livello generale che specialistico. Il materiale musicale, cui l’ICCU ha dedicato attenzione sin dal 1987 con la nascita della base dati Musica, è stato integrato nella base dati unificata del nuovo Indice SBN, insieme a Libro Moderno e Antico. Questo ha fatto emergere sia aspetti problematici legati all’inserimento di dati specialistici in una base dati di carattere generale sia la mancanza di norme specifiche per tale materiale. Per seguire meglio tali problemi il Comitato di gestione SBN ha creato, nel 2004, il “Gruppo di studio sul materiale musicale” che ha ritenuto prioritaria l’elaborazione di indicazioni normative. Questo documento presenta le norme da seguire per l’elaborazione del titolo uniforme musica e viene pub- blicato in questa prima versione sul sito ICCU, proprio per dare subito spazio ad un aspetto catalografico che, per la musica, ha una valenza particolare, in quanto consente l’identificazione della composizione musi- cale. Il testo del documento, nato sulla base di una redazione effettuata dalla IAML-Italia1, è stato rielaborato e ampliato dal Gruppo di studio sul materiale musicale2 e successivamente sottoposto alla Commissione RICA. Si tratta dunque di un adattamento alla specificità delle opere musicali dei capitoli 0.1 e 0.2, parte II del testo della Commissione e rappresenta quindi un primo riscontro e soprattutto una prima applicazione della nuova normativa. Tale documento verrà poi naturalmente inglobato, per le parti pertinenti, nella “Guida alla catalogazione del- la musica in SBN” che è in lavorazione, sempre da parte del Gruppo di studio sul materiale musicale.

Rodda Chaconne in G minor Attributed to Tomaso Antonio Vitali Born March 7, 1663 in Bologna. Died May 9, 1745 in Modena. Tomaso Vitali’s father, Giovanni Battista, was an important figure in the development of Italian instrumental music and a leading musician in Bologna, where Tomaso was born on March 7, 1663. Tomaso learned composition and violin from his father, and went with him to Modena when Giovanni joined the court musical establishment of the Estes family in that city in 1674. Tomaso’s talent blossomed quickly in Modena: he was playing violin in the court orchestra by 1675, and was later appointed its concertmaster; he remained in the employment of the Estes until 1742, just three years before his death in Modena. In 1706, Vitali was honored with membership in the distinguished Accademia Filarmonica of his native Bologna. His creative output consists principally of four volumes of trio sonatas in the style of Corelli issued in Modena between 1693 and 1701, but his posthumous fame rests almost entirely on the well-known Chaconne in G minor, though his authorship of that work has been questioned.
