Haimovitz Plays Bach Matt Haimovitz, Cello
Miller Theatre at Columbia University 2015-16 | 27th Season Special Events Haimovitz Plays Bach Matt Haimovitz, cello Thursday, October 22, 8:00 p.m. Saturday, October 24, 8:00 p.m. From the Executive Director This October has been such a full and rewarding month so far. We celebrated John Luther Adams, recipient of the William Schuman Award, with three New York premiere concerts that captivated audiences with soundscapes inspired by the Arctic. We also opened our Early Music series with a screening of La Passion de Jeanne d’Arc accompanied by a medieval score devised and sung by the Orlando Consort. This week, Matt Haimovitz performs on the Miller stage and around Columbia’s campus, bringing Bach and new works to audiences in a myriad of spaces, and it has been lovely to see students and professors stumble upon a cello suite on their walks to class. Matt and I share a passion for bringing classical music to new audiences, and watching Matt deliver these suites to the Columbia community has been inspiring. Haimovitz Plays Bach culminates here at Miller with the presentation of the complete Bach Cello Suites and six accompanying new overtures. Each overture is a unique reflection of the composer’s experience with and interpretation of Bach. Next Tuesday, Ensemble Signal returns to continue our Pop-Up Concert series. This time, they’ll present pieces that inspire them as artists with an amazing repertoire that features solos for violin and cimbalom. In a few weeks, we kick off November and our Jazz series with the return of the incomparable Anat Cohen. -
MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL Recordings of the Year 2019
MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL Recordings Of The Year 2019 This is the seventeenth year that MusicWeb International has asked its reviewing team to nominate their recordings of the year. Reviewers are not restricted to discs they had reviewed, but the choices must have been reviewed on MWI in the last 12 months (December 2018-November 2019). The 128 selections have come from 27 members of the team and 65 different labels, the choices reflecting as usual, the great diversity of music and sources; I say that every year, but still the spread of choices surprises and pleases me. Of the selections, one has received three nominations: An English Coronation on Signum Classics and ten have received two nominations: Gounod’s Faust on Bru Zane Matthias Goerne’s Schumann Lieder on Harmonia Mundi Prokofiev’s Romeo & Juliet choreographed by John Cranko on C Major Marx’s Herbstymphonie on CPO Weinberg symphonies on DG Shostakovich piano works on Hyperion Late Beethoven sonatas on Hyperion Korngold orchestral works on Chandos Coates orchestral works on Chandos Music connected to Leonardo da Vinci on Alpha Hyperion was this year’s leading label with nine nominations, just ahead of C Major with eight. MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL RECORDING OF THE YEAR In this twelve month period, we published more than 2300 reviews. There is no easy or entirely satisfactory way of choosing one above all others as our Recording of the Year, but this year one recording in particular put itself forward as the obvious candidate. An English Coronation 1902-1953 Simon Russell Beale, Rowan Pierce, Matthew Martin, Gabrieli Consort; Gabrieli Roar; Gabrieli Players; Chetham’s Symphonic Brass Ensemble/Paul McCreesh rec. -

General director Mark Weinstein and artistic director Christopher Hahn announce the first opera of the 2007-2008 season, Puccini’s Madama Butterfly, in a shimmering production—it literally floats on water—from Opera Australia at the Sydney Opera House. While the production and conductor, music director Antony Walker, both hail from Down Under, Madama Butterfly’s dream cast blends American and international stars of the first magnitude: Chilean diva Verónica Villarroel, who has made Butterfly her signature role across the globe; and Chinese mezzo Zheng Cao, Suzuki in the 2002 Butterfly and Sesto in Giulio Cesare in 2004. A pair of Americans portray Pinkerton and Sharpless: Americans Frank Lopardo, who sang another bad- boy tenor as the Duke in Pittsburgh Opera’s Rigoletto in 2005 and makes his role debut as Pinkerton; and Earle Patriarco, a sensational Figaro here in The Barber of Seville in 2003. -

Framed by Gabriella Smith’s bare, a moving chorale to environmental turmoil and Lisa Bielawa’s Missa Primavera, a hopeful fantasy on Josquin des Pres’ cantus firmi, Vijay Iyer, David Sanford, Nkeiru Okoye, Jorge Sosa, and others bring a multitude of influences from the world of Jazz and Latin music to Vivaldi and Scriabin. Recorded in January 2021 at Charline von Heyl’s artist studio near downtown Marfa, Texas, the distinct and diverse contemporary compositional voices bridge the centuries, expanding and redefining the range and repertoire of the solo cello.
