Beethoven 32 Plus
FREIES MUSIKZENTRUM STUTTGART FMZ Freies Musikzentrum Am Roserplatz Stuttgarter Str. 15 B e e t h o v e n 3 2 p l u s 0711 / 135 30 10 Die Konzertreihe im FMZ Saison 2008/2009 Die 32 Sonaten von Ludwig van Beethoven sind fester Bestandteil der Konzertliteratur. Immer wieder haben große Pianisten diesen Zyklus aufgeführt und auf unzähligen Schallplatten und CDs eingespielt. Bücher und Publikationen beschäftigen sich mit den Werken und den Interpreta- tionen. Und immer wieder hat es den Reiz, des Besonderen, wenn diese Werke wieder neu er- klingen. Als bekannt wurde, dass der österreichische Pianist Till Fellner sich für die nächsten beiden Kon- zertjahre diesen Zyklus als Projekt vorgenommen hatte, begann Andreas G. Winter, Leiter des FMZ und verantwortlich für die Programmgestaltung, als er Till Fellner dafür gewinnen konnte, diesen Zyklus, den Fellner auch in Wien, London, Paris, Tokio und New York spielt, auch im FMZ üeine Konzeption zu der Reihe „32 “zu entwickeln. Um die 32 Klavier- sonaten von Ludwig van Beethoven, deren erste 3 Abende Fellner in dieser Saison (weitere 4 A- bende in der nächsten) spielen wird, konnte Winter weitere namhafte Interpreten gewinnen, die Werke des großen Komponisten der Aufklärung in Zusammenhang mit Kompositionen von Schubert, Schumann und Brahms stellen werden. Paul Lewis wird die Diabelli-Variationen und Schuberts Impromptus D 935, der Geiger Erik Schu- mann mit Olga Scheps Violinsonaten von Beethoven und Brahms, das Trio Wanderer Klaviertrios von Beethoven und Schubert, der Tenor Marcus Ullmann in einem Liederabend neben „die ferne “Lieder von Schumann und Brahms und in einem Recital mit Mikael Samsonov, der frisch üSolocellist des SWR Radiosinfoieorchesters Stuttgart Sonaten von Beethoven und Schubert und Ben Kim, der dem Publikum bereits aus der letzten Saison in bester Erinnerung ist, mit einem Klavierabend Beethoven und Liszt interpretieren. -

The New York Times wrote of Mr. Eschenbach’s conducting Bruckner’s Symphony No. 9 with the New York Philharmonic in 2008: “Mr. Eschenbach, a compelling Bruckner interpreter, brought a sense of structure and proportion to the music without diminishing the qualities of humility and awe that make it so gripping. … the orchestra responded with playing of striking power and commitment.” Artists Christoph Eschenbach is in demand as a distinguished guest conductor with the finest orchestras and opera houses throughout the world, including those in Vienna, Berlin, Paris, London, New York, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, Milan, Rome, Munich, Dresden, Leipzig, Madrid, Tokyo, and Shanghai. -

Others used the medium as an outlet for fun and lighthearted entertainment. The music was traditionally performed in homes. The Flagler name has long been associated with great music, as Henry and Mary Lily Flagler frequently hosted musical performances in Whitehall’s elaborate Music Room. The Flagler Museum Music Series captures the spirit of traditional chamber music, and welcomes world renowned performers to the finest chamber music venue in South Florida. Here, performers and visitors can experience chamber music as it was intended in a gracious and intimate setting. Due to its intimate nature, chamber music has been described as “the music of friends.” Consequently it is frowned upon to use stages and amplifying devices. The audio devices you will see tonight record the performance for national public radio broadcast and archival purposes. -

Till Fellner | Biography Piano
Till Fellner | Biography Piano "There are pianists who cannot do much with Mozart’s piano works. And there are artists like the Viennese Till Fellner: musicians whose sound and musical understanding seems almost made for Mozart. Fellner's interpretation is slim and light, his cantabile shining with brightness" Till Fellner's international career began in 1993 winning First Prize at the renowned Clara Haskil Competition in Vevey, Switzerland. Since then, he is a sought after guest with major orchestras and in the great music centers of Europe, USA and Japan as well as at numerous renowned festivals. As soloist, he has appeared with orchestras such as the Berlin Philharmonic, Vienna Philharmonic, Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, New York Philharmonic, Boston Symphony Orchestra, Chicago Symphony Orchestra and the NHK Symphony Orchestra. The conductors with whom he has performed include Claudio Abbado, Vladimir Ashkenazy, Herbert Blomstedt, Semyon Bychkov, Christoph von Dohnányi, Christoph Eschenbach, Bernard Haitink, Nikolaus Harnoncourt, Manfred Honeck, Sir Charles Mackerras, Sir Neville Marriner, Kurt Masur, Kent Nagano, Jonathan Nott, Kirill Petrenko and Hans Zender, among others. In the field of chamber music, Till Fellner regularly collaborates with the British tenor Mark Padmore and the Belcea Quartet. In Fall 2020, he will go on tour with violinist Viviane Hagner. In recent years, Till Fellner has devoted himself intensely to two milestones of the piano repertoire: Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier and Beethoven's 32 piano sonatas. He played a seven-part cycle with all Beethoven sonatas in New York, Washington, Tokyo, London, Paris and Vienna. Till Fellner has premiered works by Kit Armstrong, Harrison Birtwistle, Thomas Larcher, Alexander Stankovski and Hans Zender. -

II wojna światowa zmusiła młodego, wówczas dwudziestoośmioletniego Hartmanna do podjęcia trudnej życiowej decyzji – stojąc bowiem u progu obiecującej kariery artystycznej, odmówił wszelkiej współpracy z nazistami, godząc się tym samym na zniknięcie z oficjalnego życia muzycznego III Rzeszy. Pozostał jednak w kraju, świadomie wybierając drogę „wewnętrznej emigracji”. Postawa ta była bardzo rzadkim zjawiskiem wśród artystów. Ci, którzy wyrażali sprzeciw wobec okrutnej polityki nazizmu, zazwyczaj podejmowali decyzję o opuszczeniu kraju, by móc swobodnie tworzyć. Pozostanie w samym centrum szalejącego hitleryzmu, z widmem artystycznego wyroku śmierci, musiało być podyk- towane niezwykłą siłą charakteru i sumienia. Nie był to jednak bierny akt rezygnacji. W zaciszu domu swoich teściów w Kempfenhausen pod Monachium, otoczony posiad- łościami nazistów, w tajem nicy przed sąsiadami, Hartmann komponował muzykę kipiącą od emocji, będącą zwierciadłem stanu jego duszy i świadectwem jego człowieczeństwa. -

Overture II. Ballet Music No. 2 LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN Concerto No. 3 for Piano and Orchestra in C minor, Opus 37 I. Allegro con brio II. Largo III. Rondo: Allegro Mr. Fellner Intermission WOLFGANG AMADEUS Symphony No. 41 in C major, K. 551, “Jupiter” MOZART I. Allegro vivace II. Andante cantabile III. Allegretto IV. Molto allegro PROGRAM NOTES BY DR. RICHARD E. RODDA FRANZ SCHUBERT Overture and Ballet Music No. 2 from the Incidental Music to Rosamunde, D. 644 (1820 and 1823) Franz Schubert was born in Vienna on January 31, 1797, and died there on November 19, 1828. He composed the music for Rosamunde during the years 1820 and 1823. The ballet was premiered in Vienna on December 20, 1823 at the Theater-an-der-Wein, with the composer conducting. The Incidental Music to Rosamunde was first performed by the Pittsburgh Symphony on November 9, 1906, conducted by Emil Paur at Carnegie Music Hall. Most recently, Lorin Maazel conducted the Overture to Rosamunde on March 14, 1986. The score calls for pairs of woodwinds, four horns, two trumpets, three trombones, timpani and strings. Performance tine: approximately 17 minutes Schubert wrote more for the stage than is commonly realized. His output contains over a dozen works for the theater, including eight complete operas and operettas. Every one flopped. Still, he doggedly followed each new theatrical opportunity that came his way. -
