  • Frédéric Vaysse-Knitter | Biography
    ERIC BENOIST CONSEIL Frédéric Vaysse-Knitter | Biography "[Vaysse-Knitter] is clearly following in the tradition of Chopin, Debussy and Liszt. Starting with the first book of Debussy's Images, he achieved a shocking, almost physical beauty, ringing with boundless clarity. (...) The power, gravitas and harmonic richness of his interpretation [of Liszt's Funérailles] cannot fail to impress, as Vaysse-Knitter elicits from this solemn work a diversity of sound that would rival a grand symphony orchestra. Then finally, there is Debussy's Poisson d’or (...), fluidly played, with the delicate touch of overwhelming virtuosity." Bruno Serrou (June 2016) "Every descent into the self is also an ascension, an assumption, a glance toward the true external reality." This quote from Novalis perfectly expresses the quintessence of Vaysee-Knitter's nature – his playing is characterised by an extreme intensity and sense of vital urgency that grips the listener, as the piano under his hands sings melodies of introspection and transcendence. This duality partly explains the fascination that the music of Karol Szymanowski holds for him: For several years, Vaysse-Knitter has devoted himself to Szymanowski's entire piano oeuvre, as well as to the works of his contemporaries, yet all the while, he has remained particularly attached to modern day music. His Szymanowski solo recording was highly regarded among classical music publications, receiving 4 stars from Fonoforum, 5 stars from Piano News and a "Maestro" rating from Pianiste. Similarly, his subsequent album Szymanowski-Stravinsky (released by Aparté), which he recorded with violinist Solenne Païdassi was awarded a "Choc" by Classica, their highest recommendation, as well as 5/5 by Diapason and 10/10 by Klassik Heute.

  • Copyright Yvonne Chen 2019
    Copyright Yvonne Chen 2019 Yvonne Chen: Lutosławski’s Piano Concerto ii ABSTRACT Lutosławski’s Piano Concerto by Yvonne Chen This document is a comprehensive study of Witold Lutoslawski’s Piano Concerto (1987-88), a masterpiece of the post-modern era. A biographical look into Lutoslawski’s fifty year gestation with the ideas for the music shows the inspirations, genesis, and processes of materials used in the piece, which straddles tradition and modernity in refreshing ways. An analysis of the work clarifies the many points of inspiration – from the pianism of Chopin to the woodwind timbres of Stravinsky, and his use of ad libitum sections to support his pragmatic approach to notation or his development of “chain form.” Following Lutoslawski’s ideas about music perception, this document includes performance observations from recordings including those by the work’s dedicatee and the composer himself. Finally, I provide a practical guide for pianists to discern and approach the technical and musical difficulties of the piece in Part Four. Yvonne Chen: Lutosławski’s Piano Concerto iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Many thanks to Yuri McCoy, friend, colleague, collaborator, organist-arranger extraordinaire, and birthday fellow, who was the first to introduce me to this piece. Without his enthusiasm for this piece and his persistence, I might have never come across it, let alone learn it. It is to him I have to thank for having the patience for spirited conversations while we figured out the piece note-by-note together in many rehearsals, and I want to thank him for taking it on the road with me to share it with people in Houston, Washington, DC, and Charleston thus far.

  • The Blake Collection in Memory of Nancy M
    The Blake Collection In Memory of Nancy M. Blake BELLINI’S NORMA featuring CECILIA BARTOLI This tragic opera is set in Roman-occupied, first-century Gaul, features a title character, who although a Druid priestess, is in many ways a modern woman. Norma has secretly taken the Roman proconsul Pollione as her lover and had two children with him. Political and personal crises arise when the locals turn against the occupiers and Pollione turns to a new paramour. Norma “is a role with emotions ranging from haughty and demanding, to desperately passionate, to vengeful and defiant. And the singer must convey all of this while confronting some of the most vocally challenging music ever composed. And if that weren't intimidating enough for any singer, Norma and its composer have become almost synonymous with the specific and notoriously torturous style of opera known as bel canto — literally, ‘beautiful singing’” (“Love Among the Druids: Bellini's Norma,” NPR World of Opera, May 16, 2008). And Bartoli, one of the greatest living opera divas, is up to the challenges the role brings. (New York Public Radio’s WQXR’s “OperaVore” declared that “Bartoli is Fierce and Mercurial in Bellini's Norma,” Marion Lignana Rosenberg, June 09, 2013.) If you’re already a fan of this opera, you’ve no doubt heard a recording spotlighting the great soprano Maria Callas (and we have such a recording, too), but as the notes with the Bartoli recording point out, “The role of Norma was written for Giuditta Pasta, who sang what today’s listeners would consider to be mezzo-soprano roles,” making Bartoli more appropriate than Callas as Norma.
