Das Land mit seinen Kunst- schätzen aus Mittelalter und Romantik, Aufklä- Srung und Moderne ist eine verheißungsvolle Heimat für Kreative. In Sachsen-Anhalt gilt es Räume zu erkunden, in denen es vor Kreativität brodelt und wo junge Talente ihre ersten Akzente setzen. An öffentlichen und versteckten Orten gibt es aufregende Kunst zu entdecken. Der Ausgangspunkt für Ihre Reise muss natürlich Halle (Saale) sein, die Stadt in Sachsen-Anhalt, in der die künstlerische Avantgarde zu Hause ist. In Halle (Saale) finden Sie Persönlichkeiten, die leidenschaft- Skulptur „Junge lich mit ihren Projekten die Zukunft gestalten wollen.

Nach Halle (Saale) sollten Sie nach Ascherleben weiterreisen, einer sachsen-anhaltischen Stadt mit über 1000-jähriger Geschichte. Hier startete mit der „DRIVE THRU Gallery“ der Beginn eines spannenden Kunstexperimentes. Zum ersten Mal wurde in Deutschland eine ganze Stadt in eine Galerie transformiert. Die Stadt beherbergt im Bestehorn- park außerdem die Grafikstiftung Neo Rauch, ein Künstler, der auch im Naumburger Dom drei Glasfenster gestaltete. Wenn Sie schon im Auto sitzen, dann sollte Sie die Reise auch in das Gartenreich Dessau-Wörlitz führen. Aber nicht nur für die aus der Aufklärungszeit stammenden Landschaftsgärten steht diese Region, sondern auch für das Bauhaus. Besuchen Sie in Dessau die von Walter Gropius entworfenen Meisterhäuser. Im rekonstruierten Direktoren- haus können Sie ab nächstem Jahr ein neues Meisterwerk von Olaf Ni- colai entdecken.

BUSONI) Relatively early in his career, Bach worked in Weimar as the court organist. While serving in this capacity, he produced his Orgelbüchlein (little organ book): a collection of 46 chorale preludes. Each piece borrows a Lutheran hymn tune, set in long notes against a freer backdrop. “Ich ruf’ zu dir,” a general prayer for God’s grace, takes a particularly plaintive approach. The melody is presented with light ornamentation in the right hand, a flowing middle voice is carried by the left, and the organ’s pedals offer a steady walking bassline. The work is further colored by Bach’s uncommon choice of key, F Minor, which he tended to reserve for more wrought contrapuntal works. In this context, though, it lends a warmth to the original text’s supplication. In arranging the work for piano, around the year 1900, Busoni’s main challenge was to condense the original three-limbed texture to two. Not only did he manage to do this, while preserving the original pitches almost exactly, he found a way to imitate the organ’s timbral fullness.

  • Simone Dinnerstein Long Bio (576 Words) Updated July 2020 Simone Dinnerstein Is an American Pianist. She Lives in Brooklyn
    Simone Dinnerstein Long Bio (576 Words) Updated July 2020 Simone Dinnerstein is an American pianist. She lives in Brooklyn, New York with her husband, son and dog, less than a mile from the hospital in which she was born. Simone has a distinctive musical voice. The Washington Post has called her “an artist of strikingly original ideas and irrefutable integrity.” She first came to wider public attention in 2007 through her recording of Bach’s Goldberg Variations, reflecting an aesthetic that was both deeply rooted in the score and profoundly idiosyncratic. She is, wrote The New York Times, “a unique voice in the forest of Bach interpretation.” Since that recording, she has had a busy performing career. She has played with orchestras ranging from the New York Philharmonic and the Montreal Symphony Orchestra to the London Symphony Orchestra and the Orchestra Sinfonica Nazionale Rai. She has performed in venues from Carnegie Hall and the Kennedy Center to the Berlin Philharmonie, the Vienna Konzerthaus, the Seoul Arts Center and the Sydney Opera House. She has made ten albums, all of which topped the Billboard classical charts, with repertoire ranging from Beethoven to Ravel. In recent years, Simone has created projects that express her broad musical interests. Following her recording Mozart in Havana, she brought the Havana Lyceum Orchestra from Cuba to the United States for the very first time, raising the funding, booking the concerts, and organizing their housing and transport. Together, Simone and the orchestra played eleven concerts from Miami to Boston. Philip Glass composed his Piano Concerto No. 3 for Simone, co-commissioned by twelve American and Canadian orchestras.

About the Program This is a program that explores time and counterpoint. Bach’s 15 Two-Part Inventions are pieces that he wrote in 1723 as a guide for keyboard players. It shows how to play counterpoint, beginning with two voices, one in each hand. The first note played is middle C and from that note on, Bach introduces us to techniques such as one voice imitating the other, or inverting what the other voice just played (essentially playing it upside down), or harmonizing in parallel motion. He shows what types of musical ideas best suit different treatments, how a melody can be broken into fragments and built up again.
