  • 09 Gould G. PIANIST GLENN GOULD's OFTEN DISMAL
    UDK 821.111(71).09 Gould G. PIANIST GLENN GOULD'S OFTEN DISMAL WRITING Jason Blake Abstract Glenn Gould was known to the world primarily as a pianist. His Bach interpretations were lauded, his Mozart generally lamented, and his often curious musical views met with suspicion. Despite the fact that it was his primary occupation, Gould considered himself to be much more than a pianist. He produced a number of radio and television documentaries on subjects ranging from musical topics, to life in the north of Canada. He considered himself to be only a part time pianist, and he longed to be recognized also as a writer. Aft_er briefly introducing Glenn Gould as a Canadian culturalicon, this paper examines the lesser-known part of his oeuvre, and points out some of the stylistic shortcomings of his writing, before addressing the following question: "Why bother to read him?" The Anthology From Ink Lake: Canadian stories selected by Michael Ondaatje reveals some questionable editorial choices. The problem is not the "Canadian," since Canadian literary tradition has always found room for those with tenuous links to Canada. Indian-born writer Bharati Mukherjee long ago chose the United States over Canada, her work regularly appears in anthologies of both American and Canadian literature. If Canadian pedantic types point out that Carol Shields and even Ondaatje were not born in Canada, it is generally to prove a point about a multicultural nation. The problem lies with the "stories" part of the title -Alice Munro and Mavis Gallant, two short story magicians, are included, but many of the works in From Ink Lake are extracts from novels rather than short stories proper.

DAQUIN Fantasia and Fugue in G minor, BWV 542 – J. S. BACH THREE FAMOUS TRUMPET TUNES Purcell, Clarke, Purcell FUGUE IN G major, BWV 565 – J. S. BACH These six trumpet tunes are taken from many standard French baroque trumpet pieces and indeed from famous English Baroque works. Some of you will recognize them from the “Masterpiece Theatre Show” and Britain's “Young Persons Guide to the Orchestra.” The Bach works are amongst his most celebrated and well-known works for the organ. The toccata in C features a lengthy pedal solo followed by a beautiful adagio made famous by Pablo Casals in transcription, and an extremely joyful fugue. The work by Cesar Frank is unabashedly romantic, quiet, and lyrical. Mozart's church sonatas were used to get the Archbishop from the epistle side of the Salzburg Cathedral to the gospel side. They are short wonderful little gems of pieces, and I have transcribed the three you will hear today as organ solos. My own work is based on the opening four notes of the Gregorian Te Deum and is one of my most successful works, having transcriptions for solo piano and violin.

  • The 2009/10 Concert Season Marks the 200Th Anniversary of the Births of Both Felix Mendelssohn and Robert Schumann
    May 5, 2010 at 9:00 on PBS Emanuel Ax, Yo-Yo Ma, Itzhak Perlman @ the Penthouse The 2009/10 concert season marks the 200th anniversary of the births of both Felix Mendelssohn and Robert Schumann. Musicians everywhere have been commemorating those anniversaries all season long. Our next Live From Lincoln Center, on Wednesday evening May 5, will join the world-wide celebration with a very special program originating in Lincoln Center's unique Kaplan Penthouse. More about the program and performers in a moment. Some 70 years ago RCA Victor Records brought together three of its reigning instrumental masters for the purpose of recording some of the cornerstones of the Trio literature for piano, violin and cello. They were violinist Jascha Heifetz, pianist Artur Rubinstein, and cellist Emanuel Feuermann. So important was that pairing that a feature article about their collaboration appeared in what was then the leading weekly publication in the country, Life Magazine. The writer dubbed the Heifetz-Rubinstein-Feuermann combination "The Million Dollar Trio", and the resultant recordings are regarded as classics to this day. And another spectacular threesome played together in the White House during the Presidency of John F Kennedy: violinist Isaac Stern; cellist Pablo Casals; and pianist Mieczyslaw Horszowski. If one were to try to emulate those combinations with artists of today, the choices inevitably would be Itzhak Perlman, violin; Emanuel Ax, piano; and Yo-Yo Ma, cello. And it is precisely those three who will form our Trio on May 5! The three of them are old friends who enjoy each others company socially as well as musically.

In 2019 Sharon curated a chamber music series, Live at the Quartet Bar, for the Adelaide Festival Centre, and made her debut as a radio presenter on ABC Classic.

Born in Kazakhstan, he immigrated with his family to Australia in 1981 and began studying the guitar with his violinist father Edward at the age of 6. By the time he was 17 he was signed to the Sony Classical Label. His relationship with Sony Classical, ABC Classic in Australia, ECM in Germany and his own label Which Way Music has led to the release of over 30 solo and collaborative albums – four of which have won ARIA Awards – spanning a vast range of musical genres.
