  • Celebrate Beethoven Catalogue Ludwig Van Beethoven (1770–1827)
    CELEBRATE BEETHOVEN CATALOGUE LUDWIG VAN BEETHOVEN (1770–1827) Born in Bonn in 1770, the eldest son of a singer in the Kapelle of the Archbishop-Elector of Cologne and grandson of the Archbishop’s Kapellmeister, Beethoven moved in 1792 to Vienna. There he had some lessons from Haydn and others, quickly establishing himself as a remarkable keyboard player and original composer. By 1815 increasing deafness had made public performance impossible and accentuated existing eccentricities of character, patiently tolerated by a series of rich patrons and his royal pupil the Archduke Rudolph. Beethoven did much to enlarge the possibilities of music and widen the horizons of later generations of composers. To his contemporaries he was sometimes a controversial figure, making heavy demands on listeners by both the length and the complexity of his writing, as he explored new fields of music. Beethoven’s monumental contribution to Western classical music is celebrated here in this definitive collection marking the 250th anniversary of the composer’s birth. ThisCELEBRATE BEETHOVEN catalogue contains an impressive collection of works by this master composer across the Naxos Music Group labels.

  • Guiomar Novaes - by Emmett M
    AMICA International Automatic Musical Instrument Collectors' Association Honor Roll GUIOMAR NOVAES - BY EMMETT M. FORD From THE AMICA, August 1977 Guiomar Novaes, pianist, phonograph and piano roll artist and composer was born in Sao Joao da Boa Vista, Brazil, February 28, 1895. She showed musical talent at an early age. Piano study was in Sao Paulo with Chiafarelli and in 1904 she appeared as a child prodigy in a public appearance. In 1909 the Brazilian Government sponsored her entry into the Paris International Contest where she won first prize from among about 380 contestants. A two-year study was with the well-known French teacher and pianist, Isidor Phillip and his assistant, Helen Chaumont at the Paris Conservatory where she garduated with highest honors in 19i1, receiving the Premier Prix du Conservatoire. At the final examination of a contest dedicated to the improvement of music in France, Claude Achille Debussy was one of the judges. Debussy was exhausted from the numerous hearings during the examinations but mentioned one of the most artistic was a youthful Brazilian pianist of the age of thirteen, Guiomar Novaes.
