  • Furtwängler Broadcasts/Recordings
    Furtwängler Broadcasts & Broadcast Recordings 1927-1954 1st version: February 20, 2002 Latest revision: July 5, 2019 This list of Furtwängler broadcasts/broadcast recordings is based on various private and official lists in my possession. Most of the lists were given to me by Frau Elisabeth Furtwängler during visits in Clarens in the 1970s. I have not tried to verify stations missing from the lists. I have given RRG (Reichsrundfunk Gesellschaft) as source for many WWII broadcasts, which were transmitted from Berlin, Vienna, Bayreuth, or Prague. Many of the dates of these broadcasts stem from an Italian list (from Bologna), written in perfect German! Broadcasts of commercial recordings (78 rpms and LPs) are not included. In November/December 2003, I was asked by Angelo Scottini, Piacenza, Italy, to include his list of Italian broadcasts. January 1, 2004, René Trémine gave permission to include all broadcasts mentioned in his Furtwängler concert listing 1906-1954. April 21, 2008, Norbert Kleekamp forwarded information on the Meistersinger broadcasts from Bayreuth August 1943. February 1, 2010, I included the recorded broadcasts in my discography up to 1945. November 2012, René Trémine sent me a list of amendments, added on January 10, 2013. February 18, 2018, I added broadcasts from the Danish Radio (DR), from the BBC, and from the RRG. March 9, 2018, a few amendments by Stéphane Topakian were added. A few corrections were added on March 25, 2018. March 27, 2018 some broadcasts from the Swedish Radio (SR) were added. Broadcasts up to the end of 1947 from the Austrian database ANNO were added July 1, 2018.

  • My Early Years: Geneva, New York, Cleveland
    Chapter 1 My Early Years: Geneva, New York, Cleveland RA: Let’s begin with you saying something about your early years with your family, especially with regard to the historical context within which your early development took place, and how that affected your eventual musical, philo- sophical, and artistic pursuits. Michael: My life began on a hopeful note. I mean that literally. I was born on September 13, 1942, in Geneva, Switzerland, which was the second day of Rosh Hashanah—the second day of the Jewish New Year. My father was fond of tell- ing the story about it. While my mother and I were still in the hospital, my father came to visit us. After the visit, he went to Victoria Hall, the home of L’Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, where he was the principal violist at the time. The orchestra was already in rehearsal when he arrived. As he walked down the aisle toward the stage, the venerable conductor, Ernest Ansermet, turned around. After recognizing my father, he stopped the orchestra and asked the musicians to play a D major fanfare in honor of my birth! My father would tell that story as if a great good omen had been bestowed upon me and my family. I’ve internalized that story so much that I have always been partial to the key of D major! Still, it was a difficult time for my parents. The War was on. It would be three more years before it would come to an end, and anoth- er two years after that before our family could immigrate to America.

  • Roll Over Beethoven
    Museum für Musikautomaten Bollhübel 1 Tel. +41 58 466 78 80 CH-4206 Seewen SO www.musikautomaten.ch Seewen, in December 2020 Special exhibition from 16 December 2020 to 1 August 2021 Roll over Beethoven Automaton music marking the composer’s 250th birthday The name of Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827) became a byword for classical music in the 19th century. That being so, the fact that his compositions feature widely in mechanical musical instruments comes as no surprise. Over 150 rolls of music by the composer have been tracked down for the Welte Mignon reproducing piano alone. On the other hand, his music rarely appears on Swiss music boxes. To mark the 250th anniversary of the composer’s birth, the Museum of Music Automatons is looking for musical items of interest featuring Orchestrions, mechanical pianos and organs, as well as music boxes and other automatons. Ludwig van Beethoven is a representative person in a 19th century increasingly looking back with nostalgia. Although the virtuosic piano pieces by Romantic composers such as Franz Liszt and Frederic Chopin were particularly effective and more widely available on reproducing pianos, the major manufacturers of music scrolls for music automatons reproduced almost all of Beethoven’s piano works as well as arrangements of his main orchestral and chamber music works. Beethoven in mechanical music The 150-plus rolls of music by Beethoven for the Welte Mignon reproducing piano were recorded by famous artists such as Eugen d’Albert, Ferruccio Busoni, Frederic Lamond and Alfred Grünfeld. These pianists embodied disparate, powerful traditions of Beethoven interpretation that competed with each other in the 19th century for sovereignty of interpretation of the composer’s piano works.

  • VIDEO REVIEW "The Art of Piano
    ECHO: a music-centered journal www.humnet.ucla.edu/echo Volume 2 Issue 2 (Fall 2000) VIDEO REVIEW "The Art of Piano: Great Pianists of the 20th Century." Great Performances. PBS. June 2000. Music Video and DVD. Warner 29199-3, 1999. $26.99. 1. As a pianist I remember more vividly than many things from my youth hearing and seeing some of the great pianists presented here in live concerts. When one talks of an "unforgettable" concert by this or that artist, for me that has always included the visual as well as the aural component. To see clips of Horowitz, Rubinstein, and Cortot, for example, is not merely to hear different approaches to the piano and its repertoire, but one could almost speak of three different activities engaged in by these men. Horowitz seems to crouch at the piano, as if almost ready to pounce on it; Rubinstein sits quite straight, almost aloof, while Cortot grimaces and sways about. And the musical results always seem a direct outcome of the particular activity. After attending a concert by this or that great pianist (whose manner of playing was often totally different from my own) I would often go home to the piano and try to imitate that artist, not just his or her sound, but by adjusting the bench and virtually my whole stance at the piano—what better way to learn, after all, than by apprenticing oneself to a great master? 2. So a composite video such as this one is for me a veritable treasure trove, a true legacy of a large proportion of the great piano playing of the 20th century—much of which is still indebted to the 19th.

    For centuries, it has been regarded as the finest, the most valuable and untouchable form of high culture: Classical music. Mezzo-soprano Stephanie Szanto and pianist Simon Bucher know its stern reality as they passed the rigorous school of classical music. At night, however, they danced under the flashing lights of their hometown’s discotheques to the smashing hits of their youth, which all can be coined under the genre Eurodance. Music is music, and there is no limit to it: „No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no there’s no limit“. Szanto and Bucher appreciate the grandeur within the most trivial hits of the 80ies and 90ies, while respectfully finding humour in the deep seriousness of classical music. This is why The High Horse is a unique mix of both worlds. Their show feels like the love you’ve never been looking for, but realise you’ve been missing all along. Their noble- obscure original compositions and fascinating arrangements seem familiar, yet new and adventurous at the same time. This parody-album will give you goosebumps while at the same time making you cry with laughter. This is high art, this is freedom. The Swiss mezzo-soprano STEPHANIE SZANTO performs in the areas of concert, song and opera. She has worked, among others, with the Lucerne Symphony Orchestra, the Symphony Orchestra Biel, the Lucerne Chamber Orchestra, the Orchestra of Bach Collegium Zurich and the Human Rights Orchestra. Further engagements led her to the Biel/Solothurn Opera, the GAIA Festival and the Murten Classics Festival.
