GUY BOVET Biography GUY BOVET Biography Guy Bovet has become one of the most respected organists of our times. He is equally at home in any kind of repertoire from the earliest to the most recent, and combines scholarship, musicianship and originality with a constant curiosity and a delightful sense of humor. He keeps a busy schedule of over 50 recitals a year all over the world and often combines his performances with workshops on topics as different as Mediaeval music, early Spanish and French music, Brahms, Liszt, Franck, Jehan Alain, Bach, improvisation and organ transcriptions. He serves on the juries of the greatest organ competitions such as Geneva, Calgary, Dallas, Tokyo, and St. Albans, and has designed and advised for many new organs in Europe, the United States and Japan. Mr. Bovet’s organ compositions are becoming increasingly popular and are being performed and recorded by the world’s outstanding organists. Notable among his compositions are Three Preludes (including the popular “Salamanca”), his Suite for Souvigny and his Twelve Ecclesiastical Tangos. He has over 160 compositions in total including many works for stage and film, plus symphonic and chamber works. Mr. Bovet has just retired from the Musikhochschule of Basel, Switzerland, where he has taught students from five continents over the past 20 years. He has held positions at several American universities as well as the University of Salamanca, Spain. He still teaches improvisation (since 2005) at the Conservatory of Bologna in Italy. At home, Mr. Bovet is editor of the Swiss organ journal La Tribune de l’Orgue and a member of the Swiss Commission for Historic Organs. He is also curator of the organ built by Albert Alain, father of Marie-Claire and Jehan, which was restored and reinstalled in GUY BOVET Biography, page 2 Romainmōtier, Switzerland. This was the instrument that inspired Jehan Alain’s organ works and it has become a center for intensive workshop, teaching and concert activities when Mr. Bovet founded the Romainmôtier Organ Academy in 1970. The Academy draws more than 60 students per year from around the world for various seminars and workshops. Guy Bovet has made more than 50 recordings, most for the Swiss label GALLO, on historical instruments of Europe and Latin America. He has published works by various composers (including a new edition of the Facultad Organica by Francisco Correa de Arauxo), numerous articles in organ journals the world over and has done extensive research of colonial organs for UNESCO in Latin America and the Philippines. He speaks ten languages including Russian, Finnish and Japanese. Mr. Bovet is an Honorary Citizen of the City of Dallas, Texas and holds an Honorary Doctorate from the University of Neuchâtel, Switzerland. He has also been honored by the Japanese government for his extensive teaching activities in Japan. When not at the organ, he spends his time at the water where he enjoys fishing and swimming. www.guybovet.org Current as of June 2008 Karen McFarlane Artists, Inc. 33563 Seneca Drive • Cleveland, OH 44139 TOLL FREE (866) 721-9095 • FAX (440) 542-1890 • www.concertorganists.com GUY BOVET Press Notices “Guy Bovet … is a colorful, theatrical organist … he had serious Bach in him too, as he showed in the mighty Passacaglia and Fugue in C minor. ... And he could play with tripping, unostentatious grace, as in the delicate G Major Fugue. … Still, it was the colorful wit that stuck in the memory.” The New York Times “A stunning tour de force ...” The Washington Star “Bovet plays with intelligence and care … Bovet is known for his imaginative programming, and this disc (Gallo 987) is certainly a good example.” The American Record Guide “Guy Bovet transformed the king of instruments into a bubbling source of musical champagne ... The Swiss organist's playing was clear, dry and sparkling. He filled every phrase with rhythmic life and made every piece on his program into a song or a drama. Best of all, he showed a delightful sense of humor, a rarity among organists ...” The Plain Dealer (Cleveland) “Guy Bovet is a multifaceted musician, as well at home with searching out both structure and meaning of a piece of music and projecting it clearly as with exploring the instrument and using it in odd, and, often by itself, funny combinations that work. He is not only a scholar, musician and an organist par excellance, but a very good showman-performer.” The Toledo Blade “Mr. Bovet's playing was not colorful in sound alone, but also in spirit. His interpretations were vivid, expressive, spontaneous and full of character and personality. They added up to one of the most exciting organ recitals Kansas Citians have heard in a long time.” The Kansas City Times “Bovet brings to the organ world a rare combination of artistry, scholarship, enthusiasm and humor ... his playing reveals a polished technique and sensitive musicianship ... one detects an extraordinary ability to search out the essential structure of a piece and present it in a manner that anybody can understand.” Music “His playing conveyed the wonderful atmosphere of a small chapel in the woods; the sound was sublime and truly moving ... we welcome the opportunities to hear this witty and talented artist.” Southern California Early Music Journal “What a wonderful performer! Guy Bovet displayed the most convincing intelligence, superior and flawless technique, transparent playing ... The whole concert was one of the happiest events in this season.” L’Express (Neuchâtel) “The expression he elicited was expansive and handsomely phrased. One felt the grandness of the piece, its intellectual breadth and emotional depth.” Seattle Post-Intelligencer Karen McFarlane Artists, Inc. 33563 Seneca Drive • Cleveland, OH 44139 TOLL FREE (866) 721-9095 • FAX (440) 542-1890 • www.concertorganists.com Guy Bovet - Discography GALLO 1972 Organ of Vouvry (CH) Balbastre, Boëly LP 30-86 GALLO 1974 Organ of Visperterminen (CH) Telemann LP 30-102 GALLO 1976 LP 30- (3 Organ of Lutry (CH) The 30 Voluntaries by J.

  • Jean Langlais Remembered
    Trials and Joys ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !CHAPTER!10! !!Trials!and!Joys!(197021984)! The composer and concert performer between baroque and modernism The American tours represented only one facet, although certainly glorious, of Jean Langlais' concert career. Europe also sought and celebrated his concerts, and he performed in Great Britain, Germany and the Netherlands, in Switzerland, Italy and Scandinavia. These few headlines suggest the responses: "WONDERBAATLIJK ORGELSPEL VAN JEAN LANGLAIS IN GOUDA" ("Marvellous Recital by Jean Langlais in Gouda) Gerderlander, Gouda (The Netherlands), July 18, 1969. "A GREAT MASTER AT THE KEYS" Derek Robinson, Bristol (England), June 22, 1971. "OVATIONEN FUR GROSSEN MUSIKER" ("Ovation for a Great Musician") Neue Aachener Zeitung, Aix-la-Chapelle (Germany), December 11, 1972. True to his own aesthetic choices and sailing against the tide of current fashions, Langlais continued to honor, with brilliance, the music of his predecessors in Sainte-Clotilde, whose various anniversaries he celebrated with brilliance: in 1970, the centenary of Tournemire, and two years later, the 150th anniversary of Franck's birth. For the latter occasion, he played Franck’s complete Douze Pièces for organ in two concerts at Sainte-Clotilde, April 26 and May 3, 1972. As Langlais’ international reputation grew, foreigners thronged around him and his popularity in Europe as well as in America was at its zenith. Nevertheless, it was not until April 15, 1970 that his first organ recital devoted solely to his work took place--at St. Severin Church in Paris, organized by the French Association for the Protection of the Ancient Organ (A.F.S.O.A, created in 1967).

Bibliographie der Filmmusik: Ergänzungen II (2014–2020) Zusammengestell !on "ans #$ %ul& und 'udger (aczmarek Mit der folgenden Bibliographie stellen wir unseren Leser_innen die zweite Fortschrei- bung der „Bibliographie der Filmmusik“ vor die wir !""# in Medienwissenschaft: Berichte und Papiere $#% !""#& 'rgänzung )* +,% !"+-. begr/ndet haben. 1owohl dieser s2noptische 3berblick wie auch diverse Bibliographien und Filmographien zu 1pezialproblemen der Filmmusikforschung zeigen, wie zentral das Feld inzwischen als 4eildisziplin der Musik- wissenscha5 am 6ande der Medienwissenschaft mit 3bergängen in ein eigenes Feld der Sound Studies geworden ist. Eine ganze 6eihe themenbezogener wissenschaftlicher 7eit- schri5en erscheint inzwischen weltweit, 4agungen und 8emenbände zur Film- und wei- ter zur „Medienmusik“ haben geradezu e9ponentiell zugenommen. Es deutet sich an, dass die in der Praxis von ;unst, <nterhaltung und 1piel längst zusammengewachsenen 1in- nesmodalitäten auch in der akademischen 6e=e9ion endlich die Beachtung als multimoda- le und s2nthetische ;unstform >nden, die sie verdienen ? in der @ufnahme eines Aiszipli- nengrenzen übergreifenden ProBekts0 Aie Menge der <ntersuchungen nachzuhalten, ist aufwendig und erfordert enormen 6e- cherche-@ufwand0 Cir biDen darum alle Nutzer_innen, uns auf 3bersehenes hinzuweisen, uns auf Be eigene Beiträge aufmerksam zu machen und uns spezielle bibliographische 1ammlungen zur FerG/gung zu stellen. Es ist geplant, das bibliographische ProBekt der „Bi- bliographie der Filmmusik“ fortzuschreiben, weil es ? auch aufgrund der multidiszipli- nären Beiträge ? zunehmend schwieriger wird das Feld in seiner ganzer Breite zu doku- mentieren.
