  • Clarinet Concertos Nos. 1 and 2
    WEBER Clarinet Concertos Nos. 1 and 2 Concertina Ernst Ottensamer, Clarinet Czecho-Slovak State Philharmonic (Kdce) Johannes Wildner Carl Maria von Weber (1786 - 1826) Clarinet Concerto No. 1 in F Minor, Op. 73 (J. 109) Clarinet Concerto No. 2 in E Flat Major, Op. 74 (J. 114) Clarinet Concertino in E Flat Major, Op. 26 (J. 118) It was natural that there should be an element of the operatic in the music of Weber. The composer of the fint great Romantic German opera, Der Freischutz, spent much of his childhood with the peripatetic theatre company directed by his father, Franz Anton Weber, uncle of Mozart's wife Constanze and, like his brother, Constanze's Father, at one time a member of the famous Mannheim orchestra. At the time of Weber's birth his father was still in the service of the Bishop of Lubeck and during the course of an extended visit to Vienna had taken a second wife, an actress and singer, who became an important member of the family theatre company established in 1788. Weber's musical gifts were fostered by his father, who saw in his youngest son the possibility of a second Mozart. Travel brought the chance of varied if inconsistent study, in Salzburg with Michael Haydn and elsewhere with musicians of lesser ability. His second opera was performed in Freiberg in 1800, followed by a third in Augsburg in 1803. Lessons with the Abbe Vogler led to a position as Kapellmeister in Breslau in 1804, brought to a premature end through the hostility of musicians long established in the city and through the accidental drinking of engraving acid, left by his father in a wine-bottle.

  • GIOVANNI GUZZO, Violin
    GIOVANNI GUZZO, violin “Guzzo’s technique was immaculate, and his Szymanowski was also stylish and driven. He ripped through the cadenza with terrific verve and left me wanting to hear much more from him”. Andrew Morris, Classicalsource 30 year old violinist Giovanni Guzzo is rapidly rising as one of the most versatile performers of his generation. Born in Venezuela to parents of Italian and Venezuelan heritage, he has captivated audiences around the world with his unique and passionate approach to his performances. Following his sensational solo debut with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra in London, critics described him as a “wonderfully magnetic” and “commanding” performer. Giovanni started his musical studies with the piano at the age of five and violin at the age of six. At the age of 12 he became the youngest violinist to win the National Violin Competition “Juan Bautista Plaza” in Venezuela. A protégé of the renowned French virtuoso violinist Maurice Hasson, Giovanni was granted a scholarship to study at the Royal Academy of Music in London, from where he graduated with the highest honours. He previously studied with Zakhar Bron at the “Escuela Superior de Musica Reina Sofia” in Madrid. A keen recitalist and chamber musician, Giovanni has worked closely with some of today’s leading musicians, including Martha Argerich, Joshua Bell, Martin Fröst, Daniel Hope, Stephen Hough, Kristóf Baráti, Mats Lidstrom, Gábor Takács-Nagy, István Várdai, the Takacs Quartet and Maxim Vengerov, to name but a few.

Figures and/or pictures may be missing from this format of the document. *** Abstract: Most numerous among the recordings of Bernard Greenhouse are those he made with the Beaux Arts Trio, the legendary ensemble of which he was the founding cellist in 1955 with pianist Menahem Pressler and violinist Daniel Guilet (later followed by violinist Isidore Cohen). With the Beaux Arts Trio, Greenhouse performed and recorded the entire standard piano trio repertoire before retiring from the group in 1987. However, Greenhouse’s career on the international chamber music stage represents only one dimension of his richly varied musical life. He was also a virtuoso cello soloist, a tireless musical collaborator, and the long-time cellist of New York’s Bach Aria Group. In order to demonstrate the breadth and depth of his recorded legacy, we have organized this discography in three sections: (1) Greenhouse As Soloist and Collaborator;

  • Music School Performing Two Operas Annually for Nearly Two Decades
    HARLES H. WEBB, dean emeritus of Indiana University Jacobs School of Music, says there is no mystery as to how Jacobs became the world’s largest school of music and one of the best. “The single most important factor is the quality of the faculty,” Webb says. “If you are an outstanding student, the foremost question (l-r) Susann McDonald, Violette in your mind is who will I study with? Who will be my mentor?” Verdy, Menahem Pressler, It’s been well documented that vaunted IU President and Chan- David Baker, and Stanley Ritchie. cellor Herman B Wells wanted to see the university develop a world-class school of music. During his presidency (1938–1962), The MASTERS Metropolitan Opera helped set the stage by traveling from its home of the in New York City to the small Midwestern outpost of Bloomington, music school performing two operas annually for nearly two decades. Webb and the current dean, Gwyn Richards, agree that the ap- pointment of Wilfred C. Bain as dean in 1947 set the music school on its path to greatness. “When he became dean, no school in the country gave a doctorate in performance,” says Webb. “He argued that people in performance needed to be able to complete their education as high as people who were seeking a Ph.D. in other fields. So a doctorate in performance became a reality.” The ability for a student to gain conservatory-quality training and take academic classes at a Research 1 university also enhanced the allure of IU. “Bain sought faculty who knew what it was to be successful on the world’s best stages.
