    Auditorium du louvre Pompeo Girolamo Batoni, Apollon, la Musique et la Métrique UNE INVITATION À ÉCOUTER LE MUSÉE AUTREMENT : tel pourrait être l’esprit de votre nouvelle saison musicale. Les concerts qui vous sont proposés se déploient en quatre grands cycles pour illustrer les liens féconds que le musée du Louvre a toujours entretenus avec la musique. Un premier temps fort à l’automne redonnera ainsi vie aux musiques des XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles qui furent jouées dans l’enceinte ou aux alentours du Palais – comme la recréation d’un ballet de Delalande et Destouches dansé par le jeune Louis XV aux Tuileries en 1721. Une exposition dédiée aux chefs-d’œuvre des musées de Salzbourg sera ensuite l’occasion de révéler les relations tumultueuses de Mozart – l’enfant le plus illustre de Salzbourg – avec sa ville natale. Au début de l’année 2017, un cycle consacré aux œuvres de jeunesse des grands musiciens, de Bach à Rachmaninov, offrira de subtils prolongements aux collections du musée. Enfin, un ample programme imaginé autour de la question de l’atelier d’artiste vous fera pénétrer au cœur de la création, avec un volet musical qui donnera à entendre l’atelier de l’interprète et celui du compositeur. Au cours de ces différents cycles, vous retrouverez les rendez-vous auxquels vous êtes habitués : des concerts les mercredis et vendredis AUDITORIUM DU LOUVRE soir avec les plus grands artistes de la scène classique internationale, ainsi que des concerts d’une heure le jeudi à 12 h 30 pour découvrir les jeunes talents d’aujourd’hui.

    10e Festival des Pianissimes Saint-Germain-au-Mont-d’Or Vendredi 26 juin 2015 – 20h30 Trio Dali Jack Liebeck, violon Christian-Pierre La Marca, violoncelle Amandine Savary, piano Johann Sebastian BACH (1685 – 1750) Prélude & Choral BWV 639 Robert SCHUMANN (1810 – 1856) Trio n°1 op.63 en ré mineur Avec énergie et passion Vivant, pas trop rapide Lentement, avec recueillement Avec feu Johann Sebastian BACH (1685 – 1750) Prélude & Choral BWV 659 Félix MENDELSSOHN (1809 – 1847) Trio n°1 op.49 en ré mineur Molto allegro ed agitato Andante con moto tranquillo Scherzo: Leggiero e vivace Finale: Allegro assai appassionato Trio Dali Le patronyme du trio fait référence aux précieux marbres asiatiques de Dali, ce matériau que l’on taille progressivement et minutieusement de façon à confectionner des œuvres d’art. Ce travail, cette construction réfléchie et créative, symboles des marbres de Dali, reflètent les valeurs musicales essentielles du trio. Né d’une amitié doublée d’une passion pour le répertoire de musique de chambre, le Trio Dali est révélé à l’attention internationale en remportant successivement de grands Prix aux Concours Internationaux d’Osaka au Japon (1er Prix), de Francfort en Allemagne (1er Prix), de New-York aux Etats-Unis (2nd Prix) et de Vienne (3e Prix, Prix du Public et Prix Spécial). Dans le même temps, il reçoit le prestigieux Chamber Music Award par le Philharmonia Orchestra à Londres. Le Trio Dali est depuis lors devenu l’un des jeunes trios les plus demandés, adoubé par la presse et comparé aux légendes que sont le Beaux Arts Trio ou le Trio Stern/Istomin/Rose.

  • The 30-Year History of the Alliance Des Chorales Du Quevec and Its Impact on Choral Singing in the Province
    The 30-year History of the Alliance des Chorales du Quevec and Its Impact on Choral Singing in the Province Patricia Abbott Association of Canadian Choral Conductors, Quebec, Canada English Montreal School Board, Quebec, Canada McGill University, Quebec, Canada The year 2004 marked the 30th anniversary of Quebec's choral federation, the Alliance des chorales du Quebec (ACQ). Over the years it has grown from a membership of some 50 choirs to more than 200 (204 at the end of the 2004-2005 season). Its member choirs represent a wide range of repertoire, skill levels and age groups. Although there are other choral organizations in Quebec,l it is the only one officially recognized by the provincial government as the voice for the collective interests of choirs. This paper explores the federation's 30-year history, the growth and evolution of its mandate and programs and its impact on choral music in Quebec. The organization's publications and annual reports served as a major source of information. The Choral Landscape in French Canada Before 1974 Choral music has long been an integral part of French Canadian cultural activity. References to choral music written and arranged in Canada date back to the French colony at Port-Royal in 1606. The seventeenth and eighteenth centuries saw the performance of choral music imported from Europe, as well as a growing body of Canadian compositions, primarily for liturgical use. By the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century, singing in a choral society was a very popular activity in Canada, and Quebec was no exception.

  • Latin Derivatives Dictionary
    Dedication: 3/15/05 I dedicate this collection to my friends Orville and Evelyn Brynelson and my parents George and Marion Greenwald. I especially thank James Steckel, Barbara Zbikowski, Gustavo Betancourt, and Joshua Ellis, colleagues and computer experts extraordinaire, for their invaluable assistance. Kathy Hart, MUHS librarian, was most helpful in suggesting sources. I further thank Gaylan DuBose, Ed Long, Hugh Himwich, Susan Schearer, Gardy Warren, and Kaye Warren for their encouragement and advice. My former students and now Classics professors Daniel Curley and Anthony Hollingsworth also deserve mention for their advice, assistance, and friendship. My student Michael Kocorowski encouraged and provoked me into beginning this dictionary. Certamen players Michael Fleisch, James Ruel, Jeff Tudor, and Ryan Thom were inspirations. Sue Smith provided advice. James Radtke, James Beaudoin, Richard Hallberg, Sylvester Kreilein, and James Wilkinson assisted with words from modern foreign languages. Without the advice of these and many others this dictionary could not have been compiled. Lastly I thank all my colleagues and students at Marquette University High School who have made my teaching career a joy. Basic sources: American College Dictionary (ACD) American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language (AHD) Oxford Dictionary of English Etymology (ODEE) Oxford English Dictionary (OCD) Webster’s International Dictionary (eds. 2, 3) (W2, W3) Liddell and Scott (LS) Lewis and Short (LS) Oxford Latin Dictionary (OLD) Schaffer: Greek Derivative Dictionary, Latin Derivative Dictionary In addition many other sources were consulted; numerous etymology texts and readers were helpful. Zeno’s Word Frequency guide assisted in determining the relative importance of words. However, all judgments (and errors) are finally mine.

    SEPTEMBER 2016 –JULY 2017 Director’s Introduction Frances Marshall Photography One of Britain’s foremost singers, Sarah Connolly, opens the Hall’s new season with regular duo partner Malcolm Martineau, leading listeners through a programme rich in emotional contrasts, poetic reflections and glorious melodies. The recital includes Mahler’s sublime Rückert Lieder, the impassioned lyricism of Berlioz’s Les nuits d’été, the exotic subtle narrative impressions of Debussy’s three Chansons de Bilitis, and a selection of Schumann songs. Mark Padmore’s vocal artistry and ability to extract every drop of emotion from poetic texts have secured his place among today’s finest recitalists. Morgan Szymanski, described by Classical Guitar magazine as ‘a player destined for future glories’ joins him on 12 September. Critical acclaim for Angela Hewitt’s Bach interpretations bears witness to the pianist’s extraordinary ability to connect physically and emotionally as well as intellectually with the dance rhythms and expressive gestures of the composer’s keyboard works. The Bach Odyssey will highlight all of this over the next four years. Canadian soprano Barbara Hannigan performs like a force of nature, captivating audiences with her artistry’s presence and expressive vitality. She joins the Calder Quartet, winner of the 2014 Avery Fisher Career Grant, for the world première of The sirens cycle by Peter Eötvös. Beethoven’s piano sonatas occupied forty years of his life.
