  • Intervju: Anna Vinnitskaya
    Intervju: Anna Vinnitskaya Jag vill lämna publiken med upplevelser som efter en bra film, med nya erfarenheter och upplevelser, snarare än att imponera med virtuositet Konsertpianisten Anna Vinnitskaya tog emot CAPRICCIO på Konzerthaus i Berlin i våras i samband medhennes framförande av Dmitrij Sjostakovitjs första pianokonsert. Vinnitskaya övar när jag anländer, och jag väntar avsiktligt med att knacka på dörren till repetitionsrummet för att inte avbryta mitt i en fras i Rachmaninovs tredje pianokonsert. Samma dag som vårt samtal ägde rum släpptes även hennes senaste skiva med Bachkonserter för piano, inspelad medEvgeni Koroliov, Ljupka Hadzi Georgievaoch Kammerakademie Potsdam (Alpha). Anna Vinnitskaya föddes 1983 i Novorossiysk vid Svarta havet. Båda hennes föräldrar var pianister och hon tog tidigt pianolektioner, från sex års ålder. Hon har gett konserter internationellt sedan hon var sju år gammal. När Vinnitskaya var liten fann hon glädje i musikutövandet; som tonåring blev pianospelandet dock alltmer en form av yrkesidentitet nästan i en slags sportslig riktning för den vänsterhänta pianisten. Hon gav sin första stora konsert – Sjostakovitjs andra pianokonsert – när hon var tolv år gammal. Vinnitskaya har vunnit ett antal tävlingar, första gången när hon var tretton, bland annat Queen Elizabeth Competition i Bryssel 2007 då hon vann första pris – hon var den andra kvinnliga pianisten någonsin att vinna tävlingen – och Leonard Bernstein Award 2008. Hon har även bland annat gett en Junge Wilde- konsert i Dortmund, och gav ut sitt debutalbum 2009. Vinnitskaya är ”Artist in Residence” vid Dresdner Philharmoniker innevarande säsong som kommer att avslutas med just Rachmaninovs tredje pianokonsert i juni 2020. Anna Vinnitskaya © Marco Borggreve Upplevde du att du egentligen någonsin hade något val? Valde du pianot? – För att vara ärlig, nej, valet var inte mitt.

Their next tour starts in Paris at the new Philharmonie on 11 April. This is followed by a five-city tour across Germany, with return concerts in Berlin, Hamburg, Frankfurt and Munich and their first visit to Hannover. Their programme includes Saint-Saëns’s Symphony No.3 (“Organ Symphony”), Beethoven’s 4th Piano Concerto performed by Hélène Grimaud and Rossini’s Cenerentola Sinfonia. In May, Pappano and the Accademia di Santa Cecilia will cross the Atlantic for their first tour to South America for concerts in São Paolo and Buenos Aires and there will be a much-anticipated return to the UK in the summer (to be announced in due course). Italian pianist Beatrice Rana, featured on the latest Warner Classics recording of Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No.1 and Prokofiev Piano Concerto No. 2 (her debut album), will join Maestro Pappano and the Accademia di Santa Cecilia on their South American tour. At a time of cultural instability and economic malaise, the Accademia di Santa Cecilia stands as a beacon of artistic excellence, progress and enlightened administration in Italy.

Across the board, European audiences and critics alike lauded the Fabulous Philadelphians under the leadership of Nézet- Séguin, with Vienna’s Der Standard commenting, “A cornucopia of perfection and dynamic fury—this is just a taste of what the Philadelphia Orchestra brought to its first evening performance of its two-day residence at the Wiener Musikverein. … Yannick Nézet-Séguin is considered by many to be one of the most thrilling conductors of our time, and his interpretation of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony with the Philadelphia Orchestra was a consummate masterpiece of sheer perfection.” Overall, the Tour’s successes were threefold: as an artistic venture, with the Orchestra and Nézet-Séguin receiving glowing reviews; as an opportunity for furthering the Orchestra’s educational mission through residency activities in Lyon and London; and as a moment for promoting Pennsylvania as a global destination for tourism, trade, and business development, alongside two delegations representing the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the City of Philadelphia.

  • Cleveland Orchestra with Antoni Wit & Jan Lisiecki (April
    Cleveland Orchestra with Antoni Wit & Jan Lisiecki (April 21) by Daniel Hathaway Poland was much in evidence at Severance Hall on Thursday evening, April 21, when Polish guest conductor Antoni Wit led The Cleveland Orchestra in Richard Wagner’s Polonia Overture and ​ ​ Frédéric Chopin’s f­minor piano concerto with Canadian pianist Jan Lisiecki (the son of Polish parents). Ludwig van Beethoven’s “Eroica” ​ Symphony may have been the outlier, ​ thematically, but it ended the evening on similar notes of proud dignity. While Poland may claim Chopin as its favorite musical son, France has almost an equal claim on the composer. Only a few weeks after the Warsaw premiere of this concerto in 1830, he decamped for Paris, never to return. Taking profit of the upward expansion of the piano keyboard and the technological innovations that made it possible to hear the instrument in large concert halls, Chopin wrote fantastically elaborate passages for the right hand that can contain more notes per square inch than the busiest moments of J.S. Bach. Those gnat­like clouds of notes can be difficult to organize into lucid musical phrases. Under the fingers of some pianists, Chopin’s music can sound glib and insubstantial. Jan Lisiecki, only 21, isn’t one of those. His performance on Thursday was poetic and virile, full of health and vigor. Lisiecki has strong fingers. His passagework was brilliant, his melismas clear, and his trills scintillating. He displayed a fine sense of musical rhetoric in the slow movement, and his playing in the finale was rhythmic and stately.

  • The Concert Series at the Frick Collection Th Celebrates Its 75 Anniversary with a Dynamic Season This Fall
    THE CONCERT SERIES AT THE FRICK COLLECTION TH CELEBRATES ITS 75 ANNIVERSARY WITH A DYNAMIC SEASON THIS FALL For press information on concerts at The Frick Collection, please contact [email protected]. All sales are final; programs, artists, and dates are subject to change. Tickets ($35 each, $30 for members) are available online, by mail, or by telephone at 212.547.0715. (publishable number) Ticket holders may visit the galleries up to one hour before the concert begins. The Frick Collection presents its seventy-fifth anniversary season of classical music concerts in the elegant setting of the museum’s Music Room. Debuting in 1938, just three years after The Frick Collection opened to the public; the concert series is one of the most celebrated in New York City and has delighted thousands of visitors over the years with world-class performances ranging from solo recitals to chamber music groups to early music ensembles. The Music Room, built in 1935 as part of the transformation of the private mansion into a museum and the setting for concerts since then, conveys the atmosphere of a private salon, offering performers and attendees a uniquely intimate environment and impressive acoustics. A New York Times critic described the spectacular setting of the Music Room as “probably the best place in New York to hear chamber music. It is certainly the most authentic; much of the repertory was written to be played in exactly such a room.” During its distinguished history, the concert program has been recognized for the special niche it fills in the highly competitive and rich world of music performance in New York.

  • The Dresden Philharmonic Introduces Their New Concert Season
    PRESS RELEASE Dresden, 5 April 2019 2019/2020 – The Dresden Philharmonic Introduces their new Concert Season As of the 2019/2020 concert season the logo of the Dresden Philharmonic will undergo a change. The new logo conveys the symbiotic relationship between the orchestra and its concert hall, incorporating the shape of the concert venue into the logo itself. The idea was initiated by Chief Conductor designate Marek Janowski in an attempt to draw public attention to the link between the orchestra and its new hall. As a result the new logo highlights both the traditional importance of the resonating hall in conjunction with a future perspective. Chief Conductor Marek Janowski In his first season 2019/2020 as Chief Conductor and Musical Director of the Dresden Philharmonic Janowski will conduct a broad and diverse range of repertoire. The performance of Anton Bruckner’s Symphony No. 8 not only marks the inauguration of Janowski’s new season as Chief Conductor but will furthermore showcase the maestro’s deep and intricate knowledge of the piece. The following program, which features various choral symphonic works composed by Giuseppe Verdi and Luigi Dallapiccola, provides a stark contrast to its prior counterpart. Lovers of concertante opera will have the chance to hear the first act of Richard Wagner’s The Valkyrie at the beginning of the season. The performance of Fidelio in the spring of the Beethoven Year marks yet another highlight of the season. Both Fidelio and the concertante version of the first act of The Valkyrie will feature excellent soloists and the MDR Rundfunkchor.

Il est d’ailleurs venu rendre visite en personne au conservatoire de Novorossiisk – d’après ce qu’on raconte, il s’est montré très aimable, en particulier avec les enfants. Quand je jouais à l’époque ses pièces pour enfants, puis quand, à onze ans, j’ai interprété pour la première fois son deuxième concerto pour piano, sa musique me paraissait pleine d’optimisme.
