Alexej Gerassimez, Percussionist & Composer
Alexej Gerassimez, Percussionist & Composer Percussionist Alexej Gerassimez, born 1987 in Essen, Germany, is as multi-faceted as the instruments he works with. His repertoire ranges from classical to contemporary and jazz to minimal music whilst also performing his own works. Alexej Gerassimez performs as a guest soloist with internationally renowned orchestras including those of the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra, the Konzerthausorchester Berlin, the SWR Radio Symphony Orchestra Stuttgart and the Radio Symphony Orchestra Berlin under the direction of conductors such as Gerd Albrecht, Tan Dun, Kristjan Järvi, Eivind Gullberg Jensen and Michel Tabachnik. In addition, Alexej Gerassimez creates solo programmes and participates as an enthusiastic chamber musician in a vast variety of ensembles. His partners include the pianists Arthur and Lucas Jussen, the jazz pianist Omer Klein and the SIGNUM saxophone quartet. In the new concept program “Genesis of Percussion” Alexej Gerassimez and his percussion group take the audience on a discovery voyage through a wide variety of rhythmic and stylistic cultures, making the origin of sounds and rhythms within our everyday environment visible. Concerts in 2019 lead the ensemble to the Prinzregententheater Munich, the Konzerthaus Dortmund, the Tonhalle Düsseldorf and the Heidelberger Frühling. Other highlights of the 2018-2019 season include his Japan debut, the beginning of a three-year residency at the Konzerthaus Dortmund as “Junger Wilder” and the beginning as a stART artist of Bayer Kultur in Leverkusen. His own compositions are characterized by the exploration of rhythmic and acoustic possibilities as well as by the creation of individual sounds and the joy of crossing borders. Accordingly, Alexej Gerassimez integrates not only the usual percussion and melody instruments but also objects from different contexts such as bottles, brake discs, barrels or ship propellers. -

Kalendár Výročí
Č KALENDÁR VÝROČÍ 2010 H U D B A Zostavila Mgr. Dana Drličková Bratislava 2009 Pouţité skratky: n. = narodil sa u. = umrel výr.n. = výročie narodenia výr.ú. = výročie úmrtia 3 Ú v o d 6.9.2007 oznámili svetové agentúry, ţe zomrel Luciano Pavarotti. A hudobný svet stŕpol… Muţ, ktorý sa narodil ako syn pekára a zomrel ako hudobná superstar. Muţ, ktorého svetová popularita nepramenila len z jeho výnimočného tenoru, za ktorý si vyslúţil označenie „kráľ vysokého cé“. Jeho zásluhou sa opera ako okrajový ţáner predrala do povedomia miliónov poslucháčov. Exkluzívny svet klasickej hudby priblíţil širokému publiku vystúpeniami v športových halách, účinkovaním s osobnosťami popmusik, či rocku a charitatívnymi koncertami. Spieval takmer výhradne taliansky repertoár, debutoval roku 1961 v úlohe Rudolfa v Pucciniho Bohéme na scéne Teatro Municipal v Reggio Emilia. Jeho ľudská tvár otvárala srdcia poslucháčov: bol milovníkom dobrého jedla, futbalu, koní, pekného oblečenia a tieţ obstojný maliar. Bol poverčivý – musel mať na vystú- peniach vţdy bielu vreckovku v ruke a zahnutý klinec vo vrecku. V nastupujúcom roku by sa bol doţil 75. narodenín. Luciano Pavarotti patrí medzi najväčších tenoristov všetkých čias a je jednou z mnohých osobností, ktorých výročia si budeme v roku 2010 pripomínať. Nedá sa v úvode venovať detailnejšie ţiadnemu z nich, to ani nie je cieľom tejto publikácie. Ţivoty mnohých pripomínajú román, ľudské vlastnosti snúbiace sa s géniom talentu, nie vţdy v ideálnom pomere. Ale to je uţ úlohou muzikológov, či licenciou spisovateľov, spracovať osudy osobností hudby aj z tých, zdanlivo odvrátených stránok pohľadu ... V predkladanom Kalendári výročí uţ tradične upozorňujeme na výročia narodenia či úmrtia hudobných osobností : hudobných skladateľov, dirigentov, interprétov, teoretikov, pedagógov, muzikológov, nástrojárov, folkloristov a ďalších. -

nn Arbor 'ummer >oc THE UNIVERSITY MUSICAL SOCIETY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN presents Junge Deutsche Philharmonic GERD ALBRECHT Conductor GIDON KREMER, Violinist Monday Evening, July 22, 1985, at 8:00 Power Center for the Performing Arts, Ann Arbor, Michigan Offertorium, Concerto for Violin and Orchestra ................ Sofia Gubaidulina In three parts, played without pause Gidon Kremer, Violinist I N.T E R M I S S I O N Symphony No. 3 in D minor ................................. Anton Bruckner Massig bewegt Adagio quasi andante Scherzo Finale: allegro Sofia Gubaidulina was born in 1931 in Christopol, a small town not far from the Ural Moun tains in the Tatar Autonomous Soviet Republic. She studied piano as a child and "immediately understood that music was to be my profession." After moving to Kazan for several years of study at the Kazan Conservatory, she transferred to the Moscow Conservatory for eight years of undergraduate and graduate study in composition. Her compositions include chamber music for a wide variety of instruments, orchestral works, concerti, and several works for voice and orchestra. Offertorium was completed in 1980, written for, and dedicated to, Gidon Kremer. Kremer introduced the score to the West in Vienna and later presented it in Berlin. On January 3, 1985, Kremer and the New York Philharmonic, under Zubin Mehta, gave the piece its United States premiere in New York's Avery Fisher Hall. Of Offertorium, Harlow Robinson wrote in Musical America: "Although in three parts, the work does not conform to the conventions of the classical-romantic concerto, and Gubaidulina prefers to think of it as a Marge symphonic piece with the violin simply the leading character.' It makes great demands on the soloist, who must produce a sound by turns dry and expansive. -

The turnover in UHM Music Department personnel in the last year has been awesome, and we kama'aina have been kept busy meeting and getting to know new colleagues. Last year Allen Trubitt and Armand Russell retired, leaving big pairs of big shoes to fill. Two new faculty members, Mark Scearce and Don Womack, were hired in their place, and a third, Douglas Bomberger, was hired to provide a much needed third member for the musicology faculty. J. Mark Scearce and Donald R. Womack, in addition to being composers and music theorists, have another interest in common-both received undergraduate degrees in philosophy. Mark says it was curiosity Left to right: Mark Scearce, Doug Bomberger, and Don Womack. about things in general that led him to philosophy; Don says it was an interest in epistemology (study of the methods and limits of human knowledge) that FM-AM News Needs Your Help initially kindled his interest in that direction. Mark's philosophical bent is still apparent in a recently As you can see, readers, FM-AM News is now being finished cantata, On the Fourfold Root of the Principle of printed in black and white only and on cheaper paper Sufficient Reason, on texts from Richard Wagner's to cut costs.

241. Saison Im Gewandhaus Konzerte Im SEP/OKT 2021 Vorverkaufsstart
SEP OKT 2021 Die 241. Saison im Gewandhaus zu Leipzig Die Beraterin, die tickt wie Sie. Silke Eisermann arbeitet als Beraterin total strukturiert. In ihrer Freizeit braucht sie dann aber viel Kreativität und für Mode interessiert sie sich sowieso. Genau wie Sie? Dann könnte es ja passen. Welche Beraterin oder welcher Berater so drauf ist wie Sie, erfahren Sie unter: 2 berater.sparkasse-leipzig.de SEP OKT 2021 Die 241. Saison im Gewandhaus zu Leipzig 3 Welchen Platz dürfen wir Ihnen anbieten? Normalerweise musizieren wir im Gewandhaus, in der Oper und der Thomaskirche, aber auch in Schulen und Kitas, in sozio-kulturellen Zentren der Stadtteile, in der Moritzbastei und auf der Rosental-Wiese. 4 Durch die Corona-Pandemie war dies nicht in normalem Maße möglich. Stattdessen musizierten wir in Hinterhöfen, vor Pflege- sowie Altenheimen und zur Weihnachtszeit auf einem Bus. Denn wir wollten da sein, wo Sie sind und Ihnen mit unserer Musik Freude bereiten. Im Zentrum unseres Schaffens stehen die Großen Concerte des Gewand- hausorchesters. Aber Sie können die Vielseitigkeit, Kreativität und Experimentierfreude unserer Musiker auch bei Kammermusikabenden, Chor-, Orgel- und Salonmusikkonzerte, Musikvermittlungs- oder Crossover-Projekten mit Künstlern der freien Szene erleben. Den Leipziger Bürgern ist es zu verdanken, dass es uns als Orchester seit der Bach-Zeit gibt und wir heute in Leipzig und der ganzen Welt musizieren. Wir revanchieren uns seit drei Jahrhunderten mit engagiertem Spiel auf Weltklasseniveau sowie ideen- und abwechs- lungsreich zusammengestellten Programmen. Und – unsere Herzens- angelegenheit – mit Benefizkonzerten für Leipziger Initiativen. Unsere Gewandhauskapellmeister haben Musik-, Zeit- und Stadtgeschichte geschrieben: Mendelssohn, Nikisch, Masur. Unser aktueller Gewandhaus- kapellmeister Andris Nelsons ist ein international gefeierter Star.
