DECEMBER 2019 –– JUNE 2020 When Nothing Is Done, Nothing Is Left Undone DECEMBER 2019 –– JUNE 2020 When nothing is done, nothing is left undone. LAOTSE There are many ways to relax and recharge your batteries. While some already master the art of just doing nothing, others rather wish to decelerate slowly: by unwinding in spas and pools for adults or families; inhaling fresh mountain air while swimming in warm water; heating up in spacious saunas or an authentic Oriental Hamam; cooling off in crystal-clear mountain streams or lakes; being pampered with soothing treat- ments or the healing methods of TCM; practicing mind- fulness in Taiji, Yoga or Meditation Retreats; walking, hiking, climbing, jogging, trail running, forest bathing, e-mountain-biking or skiing in virgin nature – and of course, enjoying immaculate service and superb food. If in addition you want to clear your head, stimulate your imagination and release emotional tensions, I recommend you visit our bookstore and our concerts and festivals with great artists on the pulse of time. After all it is music and literature which not only give everything meaning, but also let us experience time truly suspended.

  • Kammerorchester Des Symphonieorchesters Des BR
    Kammerorchester des Symphonieorchesters des BR The Chamber Orchestra of the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra was founded by Radoslaw Szulc and Karl Wagner in 2000 to mark the 50th anniversary of the symphony orchestra. Thus emerged a flexible collective of virtuosic players dedicated to cultivating the chamber music ideal. As primus inter pares Radoslaw Szulc oversees the ensemble’s artistic direction. The ensemble has been hailed by the Sueddeutsche Zeitung ”…from the start a first-rate orchestra with its own character. Their sophisticated playing has differentiated structures of communication as well as musical verve…they give special attention to a full sound and achieve the aspired ideal with utmost instrumental precision.” TV and CD productions quickly followed, starting with Tchaikovsky´s works for string orchestra. The chamber orchestra became known early on for its homogenous and lush string sound. They appear frequently in the major musical centers of Europe as well as at international festivals. The chamber orchestra developed a close friendship with Hélène Grimaud and Frank Peter Zimmermann. In 2011 Mozart´s piano concertos in F Major KV 459 and in A Major KV 488 featuring Hélène Grimaud were released by Deutsche Grammophon and became number one on the US Classic Charts. In 2014 the chamber orchestra began recording all of the Mozart violin concertos with Frank Peter Zimmermann; even before completion of the project in 2015 the first part of the recordings appeared in the Classic Charts. The orchestra has also recorded several Bach violin concertos featuring Lisa Batiashvili for Deutsche Grammophon. The chamber orchestra frequently collaborates with other famous soloists such as Lang Lang, Julia Fischer, Mischa Maisky, Sabine Meyer, Pinchas Zukerman, Diana Damrau, Igor Levit, Vadim Repin, Janine Jansen und Maxim Vengerov.

  • Grigori Sokolov
    GRIGORI SOKOLOV at the Théâtre des Champs- Elysées - Paris, 2002 A dim light picks out the outlines of the hall. Suddenly a massive shadow appears and moves swiftly over to the keyboard, the only brightly lit surface to stand out from the large coffin- like box in the center of the stage. There follows the vaguest of unsmiling acknowledgments in the general direction of the audience, and then the music begins. Throughout the next two hours this music will keep its listeners enthralled with its extraordinary intensity as the audience senses the formidable physical, pianistic, musical and emotional presence of this most secretive of present- day pianists, Grigory Sokolov. S ecretive, he certainly is. A man of vast culture, cheerful and even mischievous offstage, he seems to be cocooned within his own irrefutable logic. Only his musical thoughts are susceptible of being imparted to the public, thoughts embodied beneath his fingers with the utmost interiority and within the ephemeral and exclusive framework of the concert hall. All other considerations, including those of career and self- promotion, are rejected as external to the music. They are, strictly speaking, irrelevant. The phenomenon of the artist retiring behind his art is both intriguing and salutary. It no doubt accounts partly to the fact that Sokolov is still relatively unknown to the public at large. Yet there are many people who are convinced that, following the deaths of musicians like Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli, Glenn Gould and Sviatoslav Richter, he is now the greatest

  • Ode to Joy Your Philadelphia Orchestra SPRING 2020 IMPACT REPORT
    Ode to Joy Your Philadelphia Orchestra SPRING 2020 IMPACT REPORT “We want to share the joy of music, the impact and the power of music, the music that we believe in. This is a journey, and we are the grateful caretakers of this magnificent orchestra.” —Yannick Nézet-Séguin, Music Director Walter and Leonore Annenberg Chair We were inspired to give this issue of your Impact Report a theme: Ode to Joy. Of course, the famous theme from Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony was an inspiration, but more broadly we want this issue to demonstrate how your generous support helps The Philadelphia Orchestra bring the joy of music to people around the world. Thank you! Music that Transforms A Philadelphia Orchestra season features performances of hundreds of musical works, ranging from beloved classics to new commissions. What ties this vast array of pieces together is their shared power to transform audience members and the musicians on stage. Every season includes several monumental works that demand something special from the Orchestra. They are symphonies, operas, and choral works that, in some cases, are rarely performed because of the special preparation required. This season’s transformative works include Richard Strauss’s highly charged opera Elektra, Gershwin’s beloved classic Porgy and Bess, Ravel’s enchanting fairy tale opera L’Enfant et les sortilèges, Bach’s epic Mass in B minor, and Mahler’s ever-popular Symphony No. 5. “There is this sense of awe,” said Yannick about the Mass in B minor, “and yet it’s about our own relationship with the divine or anything that is spiritual—the harmony of the world.

  • Bach's Goldberg Variations
    Bach’s Goldberg Variations - A survey of the piano recordings by Ralph Moore Let me say right away that while I am well aware that Bach specified on the title page that these variations are for harpsichord, I much prefer them played on the modern piano in what is technically a transcription and venture to suggest that Bach would have loved the sonorities and flexibility of the modern instrument, even though it inevitably involves essentially faking the changes of register available on a double manual harpsichord. I hardly seem to be alone in this, in that, just as every great cellist wants to engage with the Cello Suites, so almost every great pianist seems to want to record his or her interpretation of the Goldbergs for posterity and the public appetite for recordings and performances on the pianoforte seems undiminished. I have accordingly confined this survey to that category; doubtless more authentic accounts on an original instrument have great merit but they lie beyond my scope, knowledge and experience; I have neither the acquaintance with, nor appreciation for, harpsichord versions to attempt a meaningful conspectus of them; nor, indeed, do I have the recording on my shelves and leave that task to a better-qualified reviewer. Here, however, is a good collective survey of the harpsichord recordings from The Classic Review aimed at the average punter like me. In common with many a devotee of this miraculous music, my own first encounter with it was via the second Glenn Gould recording when, many years ago, a cultivated girlfriend introduced me to it; it was love at first hearing (assisted, perhaps by my attachment to said lady, but that’s another story…).
