San Diego Chamber Orchestra Concert to Include Music by Mozart, Beethoven, and Brahms
San Diego Chamber Orchestra concert to include music by Mozart, Beethoven, and Brahms March 30, 1973 A free program of music by Mozart, Beethoven, and Brahms will be presented by the San Diego Chamber Orchestra at the University of California, San Diego at 4:30 p.m., Sunday, April 8. The concert, conducted by Glenn Block, will be held in the Recital Hall, Bldg. 409 on the Matthews Campus. The program will include Mozart's "Overture to the Opera, 'Don Giovanni,"' and Brahms' "Serenade No. 1 in D Major, Op. ll." Beethoven's "Piano Concerto No. 3 in C Minor, Op. 37" will feature Mary Alderdice as pianist. A California born composer, Ms. Alderdice attended the Interlochen Arts Academy and the Eastman School of Music. She studied the work of Bach with Rosalyn Tureck and has also been a student of Leon Fleisher. She has been awarded an International Bach Society Fellowship and performed recently at the Marlboro Music Festival. The San Diego Chamber Orchestra is an ensemble dedicated to creating a new system of orchestral performance which acts as an alternative to the more traditional system of performance of most professional and amateur orchestras. To achieve this new system of performance requires the ensemble to be totally free of any divisive elements that would destroy the interpersonal structure and relationships among members and the various sections of the orchestra. Members feel that traditional orchestra has developed such a highly competitive system that these relationships are destroyed. Members of the Chamber Orchestra also perform as principal players and members of the Civic Youth Orchestra, the San Diego Symphony, and the California State University Orchestra. -
Yefim Bronfman
From: YEFIM BRONFMAN Jessica Duchen Yefim Bronfman is a heavyweight virtuoso: a musical force of nature whom Philip Roth described in The Human Stain , rather remarkably, as “Bronfman the Brontosaur” and “Mr Fortissimo”. The powerhouse pianist is now set to take the Proms by storm, joining the Berlin Philharmonic and its conductor Sir Simon Rattle for Brahms’s Piano Concerto No.2. One of the biggest works in the concerto repertoire, it seems an appropriately Olympian choice for the year in which the Proms have become a vital part of the London 2012 Festival. Despite Roth’s comparisons, Bronfman – ‘Fima’ for short – is soft-spoken and reflective as he talks to me from his home in New York. “I personally feel this is one of the hardest pieces to play,” he comments of the Brahms. “It presents musical and technical challenges like no other concerto: one has to overcome a lot of physical issues to perform it in such a way that the audience will not feel its difficulty. One has to make it seem effortless. At the same time, it’s such a fantastic piece of music with so many subtleties, wonderful harmonies and great, great moments. And in spite of its size – 45-50 minutes – it forms one wonderful long line from the first note to the last, which is a remarkable feat for the pianist to achieve.” Bronfman’s story began in Tashkent, where he was born into a musical Jewish family in 1958. Both his parents were pianists and his sister is a violinist. Inevitably, this being the Soviet Union, practising Judaism was not feasible in the religious sense, but Bronfman has always identified strongly with his background in terms of cultural context. -
