Winner of the most SEIXAS important competitions in her native country, she made her début with the São Paulo State Symphony (1704-42) Orchestra at the age of fifteen. Four years later the Critics Prize (APCA) named her the best soloist of the year for her interpretation of Rachmaninov’s Third Harpsichord Sonatas • 1 Piano Concerto. In 1989 she went with a DAAD scholarship to Germany, and since then has been invited to many European, South and North American Débora Halász Music Festivals and Concert Series. With her husband she established in 1993 the Duo Halász, for guitar and piano/harpsichord, arousing further critical acclaim. She has also partnered musicians such as Lavard Skou Larsen, Sebastian Hess and Patrick Gallois. Her ambitious recording of the complete piano music of Heitor Villa-Lobos, a project of some eight CDs, has been enthusiastically acclaimed by the international press. She has also recorded for BIS works by Ginastera, Shostakovich and Castelnuovo-Tedesco. Her passion for baroque music led her to a search for a historically accurate instrument for that repertoire, and she plays a historic copy of a Haas instrument, dated 1734, specially made for her. It is on this instrument that she has embarked on the recording of the complete works for harpsichord by the Portuguese baroque composer Carlos Seixas, a co-production between Naxos and Bavarian Radio. The harpsichord used for this recording is a copy of a 1734 Hass Harpsichord, built by Lutz Werum in Germany. 8.557459 4 557459 bk Seixas US 2/13/06 12:24 PM Page 2 Carlos de Seixas (1704-42) of a suite, at least in its varied movements.

  • As Sonatas Para Tecla De Carlos Seixas
    As Sonatas para Teclado de Carlos Seixas Interpretadas ao Piano Carlos Seixas é uma figura sui generis na tecladística européia do início do século XVIII. Fatores vários, que estão sendo tratados neste Colóquio, imprimem à parcela considerável da produção para instrumentos de teclado de Carlos Seixas valores outros a de seus ilustres coetâneos, quer pela maneira do emprego de materiais e até mesmo por determinadas ousadias escriturais. Poder-se-ia considerar que nas 105 Sonatas para instrumentos de tecla transcritas por Macário Santiago Kastner e publicadas pela Fundação Gulbenkian na coleção Portugaliae Musica em 1980 e 1992, assim como nas outras Sonatas atualmente a ele atribuídas, há certa desigualdade no conteúdo, mas a maioria dessa importante criação pode equiparar-se às melhores obras para cravo escritas por Jean- Philippe Rameau (1683-1764), Johan Sebastian Bach (1685-1750), Georg Friedrich Haëndel (1685-1759), Domenico Scarlatti (1685-1757) e alguns importantes compositores do período. Há que se considerar que Carlos Seixas (1704-1742) nasceu cerca de 20 anos mais tarde que os autores citados, precedendo-os alguns lustros na morte. Alguns fatores foram preponderantes no sentido do reconhecimento tardio da produção para instrumentos de tecla de Carlos Seixas. Poder-se-iam citar determinantes geopolíticas que durante séculos caracterizaram a prevalência de culturas às outras e entre estas aflora o “isolamento” de Portugal ao que se fazia musicalmente em França, Alemanha e Itália como um todo, tornando os contatos existentes escassos e pessoais. Acrescente-se o espírito sedentário de Carlos Seixas que, ao que consta, não ultrapassou as fronteiras geográficas de Portugal, assim como a comparação pejorativa que marcou e rotulou tantos autores no passado e que não foi diferente com o compositor de Coimbra, exemplificado como o Scarlatti português.

Às vezes apenas entreabertas, semiabertas, encostadas. As janelas são a melhor moldura para o mundo fora de nós. Enquadram-no sem que ele se aperceba. É bom para quem está do lado de cá, dentro do seu mundo. Esse mundo que é só meu, é um mundo cheio de mundo. Estranho, porque é, sobretudo, um mundo puramente abstracto. Abstracto porque musical. É! Feito de um incomensurável número de pautas gravadas na memória. De notas que sei de cor ou que, às vezes, invento, porque nada traduz melhor o sentimento do que a música. O que vejo, quando me deixo ficar à janela, à minha janela sobranceira ao mar, quase sempre é o que não está lá. Vejo toda uma corte, ouvindo Haëndel que passa de barco com os seus músicos. Vejo quadros soberbos, sabendo que Mussorgsky compunha para eles, quando visitava exposições. Vejo a preto e branco e a cores, enquanto recordo o Requiem de Liszt e o Hino mais célebre do mundo, o que celebra a Alegria. Vejo Jean-Baptiste Lully cortejando a Marquesa que sai do palácio que fica mesmo ao lado da minha casa.

  • The Pioneering Contribution of Macario Santiago Kastner
    nova série | new series 4/1 (2017), pp. 141-166 ISSN 2183-8410 http://rpm-ns.pt Programming Early Portuguese Repertoires Beyond the Pyrenees: The Pioneering Contribution of Macario Santiago Kastner Sonia Gonzalo Delgado [email protected] Resumo Macario Santiago Kastner (1908-92) é reconhecido como ‘o primeiro que entre nós soube escrever o nome de Portugal no mapa da musicologia internacional’ (Manuel Carlos de Brito 1989). Kastner estabeleceu-se em Lisboa, em 1934, e dedicou parte do seu percurso a descobrir a música portuguesa e espanhola dos séculos XVI a XVIII. Fascinado pela música ibérica desde o início da década de 30, dedicou-se à programação de repertório português para tecla por toda a Europa, desenvolvendo uma longa carreira como intérprete. Kastner foi, ao longo dessa década, o primeiro a interpretar Carlos Seixas em Sofia, Amesterdão e Helsínquia, também o primeiro a publicar uma colecção de peças portuguesas para tecla – Cravistas Portuguezes (1935) – e pioneiro na introdução do clavicórdio na interpretação desse repertório de acordo com a sua visão da prática instrumental historicamente informada. Existe um grande número de fontes por explorar (programas de concertos, recensões de concertos, correspondência com o seu mentor Joan Gibert Camins, o seu currículo pessoal e brochuras promocionais), preservadas na Biblioteca Nacional de Portugal e na Biblioteca de Catalunya, entre as quais se podem encontrar documentos relativos ao início da sua carreira. Pretende-se neste artigo analisar a actividade de Kastner na década de 30 na promoção da música portuguesa por toda a Europa, com particular ênfase nas estratégias de configuração dos programas – tanto do repertório, como da abordagem organológica – de forma a criar um nicho para a expansão no mercado da música antiga.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA RIVERSIDE Three Manifestations of Carlos Seixas (1704-1742): A Study of Historiographical Biography, Reception, and Interpretation A Dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music by Gary W. Barnett March 2012 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Rogerio Budasz, Chairperson Dr. Walter Clark Dr. Paulo Chagas Copyright by Gary W. Barnett 2012 The Dissertation of Gary W. Barnett is approved: _____________________________ _____________________________ _____________________________ Committee Chairperson University of California, Riverside Acknowledgments This dissertation was made possible in large part from a generous grant from the LUSO Foundation and the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation in association with the National Library of Portugal, Lisbon. This grant enabled me to live in Lisbon, where most of my days were spent researching in the music division of the National Library. At the music division, Silvia Sequeira and Maria Clara Assunção were an invaluable help in not only locating manuscripts, books, and editions, and calling archives and institutions throughout Portugal on my behalf for research trips, but in constantly providing me with suggestions, ideas, and research leads that were vital components of this dissertation. I am forever indebted to them. From my earliest days at the music library I met António Jorge Marques, an exceptional musicologist who has devoted much research into the composer Marcos Portugal and who generously lavished his time and expertise in introducing me to many pitfalls and difficulties of working with eighteenth-century manuscripts, early Portuguese reference materials, especially Portuguese music dictionaries, and difficult translations.

Marvão já faz parte, por direito próprio, do roteiro europeu dos festivais de Verão de música erudita. E esta quinta edição do Festival Internacional de Música demonstra uma vez mais ambição e diversidade. Quarenta concertos, três centenas de músicos de muitas nacionalidades, a Orquestra Estatal de Atenas, a Filarmonia das Beiras, o Coro Gulbenkian, a Orquestra de Câmara de Colónia, o Maestro António Victorino d’Almeida, elementos do Hilliard Ensemble, e obras de Haydn, Mozart, Schumann, Dvorák, Vianna da Motta ou Alexandre Delgado, sem esquecer a presença do fado, confirmam que aqui, em diversas localidades do Alto Alentejo, interior de Portugal, regiões tantas vezes esquecidas pelos grandes centros, encontramos não apenas a beleza natural e o património arquitectónico ancestral mas também uma possibilidade de formar e fidelizar públicos, locais ou visitantes. Uma aposta que tem contado com o trabalho e o entusiasmo de organizadores, patrocinadores e convidados, mas que, porque a Europa não tem fronteiras, se deve antes de mais à determinação de um amigo de Portugal, o Maestro Christoph Poppen, director artístico e fundador do Festival, a quem endereço as minhas felicitações, extensíveis a toda a equipa administrativa, técnica e artística.
