The debut LP of Italianate concerti grossi had a monochrome photograph of a church porch on the cover and the modest title “A Recital”. Humble beginnings indeed, but in 1962 “The Gramophone” devoted a full page to an enthusiastic review, concluding that it was played “with more sense of style than all the chamber orchestras in Europe put together”. Even so, it was more than a year before the sequel, “A Second Recital”, appeared. Two more such concert programmes ensued [all four are on CDs 1-2] but by then the Academy had been taken up by another label with a shift in policy more attuned to record collectors than to concert goers.

Fifth Concert of the 109th Season Twenty-fifth Annual Chamber Arts Series Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750): Concerto in D minor for Two Violins This concerto is very likely the best known of all Baroque concertos for two instruments. Stravinsky once called it "the most perfect Baroque concerto in existence." Written while Bach was Kapellmeister at the small but musically active court in Kothen, from 1717 to 1723, it follows the pattern of the Italian concerto with its two fast movements and an aria-like slow movement in the middle. Arne Nordheim (b. 1931): Rendez-vous for Strings (1987) Rendez-vous for Strings is a brand new composition, written specially for the Norwegian Chamber Orchestra.

It was a collaborative effort that allowed me to combine all of my fields of study from my entire university experience.

    Musical Performance and Cocktail Reception September 08, 2011 The Consul General of the Czech Republic in Los Angeles, Michal Sedlacek, will host the Garden Party in his residence in honor of the 170th anniversary of the birth of classical composer Antonin Dvořák. The Salastina Music Society and Walden String Quartet will present a few samples of Dvořák’s work. Music Professors Robert Winter of UCLA and Nick Strimple of USC will speak briefly on the importance of Dvořák in American music. Film Producer/Actor Lenora May and Emmy Award winner Craig Heller will take you inside the fascinating world of independent filmmaking for a detailed look at their upcoming film project, Spillville, the true story of Dvořák's inspirational 1893 trip to Spillville, Iowa (participation upon invitation only). Deo Gratias (directed by Martin Suchanek), September 14 and 21 at 7:30 pm Film documentary depicting Dvorak´s life and work (English subtitles) Screening at the Consulate General of the Czech Republic 10990 Wilshire Blvd, Ste 1100, Los Angeles CA 90024 A documentary that portrays the world-renowned Czech composer as a man of strong character, sensitivity, education and Christian faith, as a patriot and a man whose talent took him from a very modest family background to the highest peak of fame. How was it that a musician unknown until the age of 33 became adored all over Europe, was invited to the USA to help create a national American music, and was awarded doctorates and honorary memberships from top international orchestras? From where did Dvořák draw the strength to preserve his own unique identity and not succumb to contemporary fashion trends? All these questions are addressed in this fascinating documentary.
