  • Jordi Savall Talks About Grief, Memory and Building Bridges
    To marry the heart and the head By Julius Purcell . May 12, 2012 1:23 am The prolific Catalan musician Jordi Savall talks about grief, memory and building bridges ©Laia Abrill Jordi Savall at home in Barcelona It was a sound that few who heard it are likely to forget. In January, the church of Santa María del Mar in Barcelona was packed for the memorial concert of the singer Montserrat Figueras, who died last year aged 69. At the front, seated at the viola da gamba, Figueras’s husband Jordi Savall waited motionless as Armenian duduks launched into an opening lament. Then, from a balcony lit by three candles, came the voice of Figueras herself – “smoky, penetrating, flatly expressive”, as the music writer Alex Ross has described it. What we were hearing was one of her recordings of the Chant of the Sybil, a medieval Catalan text that she particularly loved. It was a charged moment, tinged with the realisation that recordings might endure, but the chance to hear this voice in performance had gone for ever. When I meet Jordi Savall a few months later, he is in the middle of producing a new disc that will tell the story, in music, of the humanist thinker Erasmus. The recording session in a chapel had finished at six that morning, Savall having returned only two days ago from an exhausting tour of Mexico and China with Hespèrion XXI, the ensemble he co-founded with Figueras in 1974. Six months after his wife’s death, and having turned 70 last year, Savall won’t, or can’t, slow down.

  • THE CONCERT of NATIONS: MUSIC, POLITICAL THOUGHT and DIPLOMACY in EUROPE, 1600S-1800S
    THE CONCERT OF NATIONS: MUSIC, POLITICAL THOUGHT AND DIPLOMACY IN EUROPE, 1600s-1800s A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Damien Gérard Mahiet August 2011 © 2011 Damien Gérard Mahiet THE CONCERT OF NATIONS: MUSIC, POLITICAL THOUGHT AND DIPLOMACY IN EUROPE, 1600s-1800s Damien Gérard Mahiet, Ph. D. Cornell University 2011 Musical category, political concept, and political myth, the Concert of nations emerged within 16th- and 17th-century court culture. While the phrase may not have entered the political vocabulary before the end of the 18th century, the representation of nations in sonorous and visual ensembles is contemporary to the institution of the modern state and the first developments of the international system. As a musical category, the Concert of nations encompasses various genres— ballet, dance suite, opera, and symphony. It engages musicians in making commonplaces, converting ad hoc representations into shared realities, and uses multivalent forms that imply, rather than articulate political meaning. The Nutcracker, the ballet by Tchaikovsky, Vsevolozhsky, Petipa and Ivanov, illustrates the playful re- composition of semiotic systems and political thought within a work; the music of the battle scene (Act I) sets into question the equating of harmony with peace, even while the ballet des nations (Act II) culminates in a conventional choreography of international concord (Chapter I). Chapter II similarly demonstrates how composers and librettists directly contributed to the conceptual elaboration of the Concert of nations. Two works, composed near the close of the War of Polish Succession (1733-38), illustrate opposite constructions of national character and conflict resolution: Schleicht, spielende Wellen, und murmelt gelinde (BWV 206) by Johann Sebastian Bach (librettist unknown), and Les Sauvages by Jean-Philippe Rameau and Louis Fuzelier.

  • The 2021 Guide
    FestivalsThe 2021 Guide April 2021 Editor’s Note Spring is in the air, vaccinations are in (many) arms, and our hardy crop of mountain, lakeside, and pastorally sited music-makers appear to be in major recovery mode from a very long, dark year. Our 2021 Festival Guide lists 100-plus entries, some still in the throes of program planning, others with their schedules nailed down, one or two strictly online, and most a combination of all of the above. We’ve asked each about their COVID-19 safety protocols, along with their usual dates, places, artists, and assorted platforms. Many are equipped to head outside: Aspen Music Festival, Tanglewood, and Caramoor Music Center already have outdoor venues. Those that don’t are finding them: Central City Opera Festival is taking Carousel and Rigoletto to a nearby Garden Center and staging Dido & Aeneas in its backyard; the Bay Chamber Concerts Screen Door Festival is headed to the Camden (ME) Amphitheater. Still others are busy constructing their own pavilions: “Glimmerglass on the Grass” is one, with 90-minute re- imagined performances of The Magic Flute, Il Trovatore, and the premiere of The Passion of Mary Cardwell Dawson. The Virginia Arts Festival has also built a new open-air facility called the Bank Street Stage, a large tent area with pod seating options. Repertoire range is as broad as ever, with the Cabrillo Festival priding itself on being “America’s longest-running festival of new orchestral music”; Bang on a Can will make as much avant-garde noise as humanly possible with its “Loud Weekend” at Mass MOCA and its composer trainings later in the summer.

GATEWAY TO EUROPE Belgium is a federal state in the heart of Europe. Flanders is the northern, Dutch-speaking part of Belgium. The Flemish Community counts more than 6 million inhabitants and is run by a government of its own with a number of specific competences, such as culture, education, media… Brussels, capital of Belgium and of Flanders as well, is home to the European Commission and many international cultural institutions. 5 PREFACE Smaller than a postage stamp! That’s how minute Flanders looks on a map of the world, if you can discover it at all. However, a felicitous turn of his- tory has made this region into an exciting crossroads of different cultures. This is why Flanders is so rich in creative talent and abundant with cultural activities.
