A Case of Mistaken Identity A Case of Mistaken Identity Release date: April 18, 2021, at 6pm (the concert is also available anytime for 30 days thereafter) A Case of Mistaken Identity In this concert, we demonstrate that great music can be written by lesser- known composers: so great, in fact, that their work can be indistinguishable from the masters. At the end of this program, the composers are revealed. We encourage you to let the mystery continue until after you have enjoyed the piece on its own merits, then consult the notes. Part I: The Baroque Era Violin Sonata in E minor, Op. 5, no. 8 SOUNDS LIKE George Frideric Handel (1685-1759) Largo (Preludio) / Allegro (Allemanda) / Largo (Sarabanda) / Allegro (Gigue) Stephen Redfield and Mario Aschauer Suonata in D major SOUNDS LIKE François Couperin (1668-1733) Performed as a single movement Grave / Vivace- e Presto - Adagio / Allegro / Adagio / Allegro / Aria affetusoso / Becarre allegro Marcus McGuff, Stephen Redfield, Eric Smtih, Mario Aschauer Trio Sonata in C major, BWV (sic) 1037 SOUNDS LIKE Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) Adagio / Alla breve / Largo / Gigue Marcus McGuff, Stephen Redfield, Eric Smtih, Mario Aschauer 2 A Case of Mistaken Identity Part II: The Classical Era Quartett in G major, Op. 8, no. 5 SOUNDS LIKE Wolfgang Amadè Mozart (1756-1791) Allegro / Rondo (Allegro) Stephen Redfield, Bruce Williams, Eric Smith, Anton Nel Piano Trio no. 4 in G major, Op. 65 SOUNDS LIKE Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827) Allegro con spirito / Andante quasi allegretto / Rondo alla russa Stephen Redfield, Eric Smith, Anton Nel * 3 Anton Nel, fortepiano, winner of the first prize in the 1987 Naumburg International Piano Competition at Carnegie Hall, enjoys a remarkable and multifaceted career that has taken him to North and South America, Europe, Asia, and South Africa. Following an auspicious debut at the age of twelve with Beethoven’s C Major Concerto after only two years of study, the Johannesburg native captured first prizes in all the major South African competitions while still in his teens, toured his native country extensively and became a well-known radio and television personality. A student of Adolph Hallis, he made his European debut in France in 1982, and graduated with highest distinction from the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg. He came to the United States in 1983, attending the University of Cincinnati, where he pursued his Masters and Doctor of Musical Arts degrees under Bela Siki and Frank Weinstock. Highlights of Mr. Nel’s nearly four decades of concertizing include performances with the Cleveland Orchestra, the symphonies of Chicago, San Francisco, Seattle, Detroit, and London, and many others. As recitalist he has appeared at Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, the Metropolitan Museum and the Frick Collection in New York, at the Ambassador Auditorium in Pasadena, Davies Hall in San Francisco, and the Library of Congress in Washington, DC. Internationally he has performed recitals in major concert halls in Canada, England, France, Holland, Japan, Korea, and South Africa. Eager to pursue dual careers in teaching and performing, he was appointed to the faculty of the University of Texas at Austin in his early twenties, followed by professorships at the Eastman School of Music, and the University of Michigan, where he was chairman of the piano department. In January 2010 he became the first holder of the new Joe R. and Teresa Lozano Long Endowed Chair in Piano at the University of Texas at Austin. Anton Nel became a citizen of the United States of America on September 11, 2003. He is a Steinway artist. 4 Stephen Redfield, violin, concertmaster, also leads the orchestras of Conspirare, Santa Fe Pro Musica, Arizona Bach Festival and Victoria Bach Festival. A long-time participant with the Oregon Bach Festival, he has performed there as concertmaster, principal and soloist, and has participated in numerous recordings includ- ing the Grammy® award-winning disc Credo. Stephen served for five years as Assistant Concertmaster with the Austin Symphony while earning a doctorate at the University of Texas. He also per- forms internationally as a soloist and a chamber musician on both modern and Baroque violin. Stephen teaches violin at the Univer- sity of Southern Mississippi School of Music, where he joins his colleagues in the Impromptu Piano Trio. In 2019, Stephen received the Austin Critics Table award for best classical instrumentalist. Eric Smith, gamba, has been praised by critics for his “flawless lightness and grace” and called “the very model of an elegant cellist”. Eric is a multi-faceted musician, performing early mu- sic on period instruments, to contemporary music. As a solo- ist, chamber musician, and continuo player, Eric has collabo- rated with the Dallas Bach Society, Orchestra of New Spain, Texas Camerata, Ars Lyrica Houston, Sonare, Ensemble VIII, Denton Bach Society, Dallas Chamber Players, Bach Society of Houston, New York’s Concert Royal, and the New York Baroque Dance Company. His recordings have been heard on both NPR’s Performance Today, and Public Radio Interna- tional, and he was featured in an interview in the 125th Anniversary issue of The Strad magazine. Marcus McGuff, Baroque flute (traverso), plays both modern and Baroque flute. He holds degrees in flute performance from the Eastman School of Music and Indiana University, as well as a Doctor of Musical Arts in flute from the University of Michigan. In addition, he holds degrees in mathematics from the University of Rochester. He has taught flute at Austin Community College and at Concordia University. Currently, he is Professor of Mathe- matics at Austin Community College and teaches flute privately. He has studied Baroque flute with Wilbert Hazelzet, Michael Lynn, and Jed Wentz and modern flute with Bonita Boyd. 5 Bruce Williams, viola, is principal violist with the Austin Symphony. In 2003, he won the Austin Critics Table award for Outstanding Instrumentalist for his performance with the Austin Symphony of “Harold in Italy” by Hector Berlioz. Mr. Williams is a founding member and manager of the Artisan Quartet, presenting the “Artisan Quartet Series” since 2012 in Austin. The Quartet has performed at Carnegie Hall presented by MidAmerica Productions. The AQ was recently named Quartet in Residence with the Mozart Festival Texas, the Texas Bach Festival, and also the Mason County Chamber Music Festival where he also serves as Artistic Director. Praised a performer with “unconventional ludic drive” by the press, Mario Aschauer works as conduc- tor, harpsichordist, and musicologist at the interface of music scholarship and performance. As Associate Professor of Music, Mario teaches music history, historically informed performance and early keyboard instruments at the Sam Houston State Uni- versity School of Music (Huntsville, TX). He holds an MA in harpsichord performance from the University of Music and Performing Arts, Vienna, an MPhil and a PhD in musicology from the University of Vienna, as well as a degree in conducting from the Linz Bruckner Conservatory. As a performer on historical keyboard instruments Mario has built up a diverse reper- toire specializing in Austrian Baroque music. He is member of the Calamus-Consort, which won first prize at the International H.I.F. Biber Competetion in 2009 and since then has been invited to numerous renowned early music festivals such as Reso- nanzen Wien, Bach Fest Leipzig (Germany), and Itinéraire Baroque en Périgord Vert (France). His book on German Keyboard Treatises in the Second Half of the Eighteenth Cen- tury (Kassel: Bärenreiter, 2011) is considered a standard reference in the field. 6 La Follia is deeply grateful to the following people and institutions La Follian Rebecca Baltzer Jane-Elizabeth M H Houston ($5000+) Scott Elkin, DO & Madison and Judd Eileen Houston Rogers Anonymous (1) Cherrie Smith Virginia Hyde & Rod The Jolly Family Anne & Ray Ellison Natalie Morgan, in Howard loving memory of Trust - in loving Joan Dean Robert & Babette memory of Kevin Jolly Harold Rutz Anne & Ray Ellison Laibovitz Diane Nousanen Sponsor Sarah Harriman Jennifer Loehlin ($2500—$4999) Charles & Betty Mikal Hart Judith Lundin Anonymous (2) Oltorf George & Linda Betsy & Bill Martino Mary Parse Sustainer Henderson Francine Mastrangelo ($1000 - $2499) Hans & Marie Tracy Reindel Carolyn McFarland Anonymous (3) Jensen Judd Rogers & Jane Katherine McIntyre Louis and Martha Jeffrey Kodosky -Elizabeth Madison Galie Catherine Melendez Pong & Muriel Lem Elise A Smith Michael McGinnis Karen Miller Charlotte Sullivan & Cate Miller Alaire & Tom Gail Minault in memory of Robert Lowry Manfred Trent Ronald Gene Parsons C.

  • Bach's Birthday Bash
    LA FOLLIA AUSTIN BAROQUE presents an online concert Bach’s Birthday Bash Concertos by the Master on his Birthday Anton Nel, harpsichord Stephen Redfield, violin Marcus McGuff, Baroque flute Release date: March 21, 2021, at 6pm Bach’s Birthday Bash Concertos by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685 - 1750) Violin Concerto in E major, BWV 1042 I. Allegro / II. Adagio / III. Allegro assai Stephen Redfield, violin Harpsichord Concerto in D minor, BWV 1052 I. Allegro / II. Adagio / III. Allegro Anton Nel, harpsichord Orchestral Suite no. 2 in B minor, BWV 1067 I. Ouverture / II. Rondeaux / III. Sarabande IV. Bourrée I/II / V. Polonaise / Double / VI. Menuet and Battinerie Marcus McGuff, Baroque flute 2 The Baroque Concerto The Baroque concerto generally, and concertos by Bach specifically, are different animals from their Classic and Romantic counterparts. While there are certainly many opportunities for the soloist to stand out alone in virtuosic passages, more typically the instrumentalist is engaged in either dialogue or integration with the ensemble acting as equals in developing or reinforcing thematic material. Notably, the soloist seldom rests (in fact never rests in these concerti). That requires considerable physical and mental stamina over the course of a 20-30 minute composition! The movements are organized in the Italian style, like Vivaldi’s concertos, which Bach intensely studied. Violin Concerto in E major, BWV 1042 Written when Bach was either at the court in Köthen or when he was in Leipzig , this is a joyful romp with a beautiful grace to it. We do not have an original manuscript in Bach’s hand, but we do have his own arrangement of this piece for harpsichord, so its authenticity is beyond question.
