  • Emmanuel Pahud & Eric Le Sage
    per Javier Pérez Senz 2018_2019 MÚSICA DE CAMBRA MÚSICA DE CAMBRA El flautista francès Emmanuel Pahud, solista de l’Orquestra Filharmònica de Berlín, torna a L’Auditori al costat del seu pianista predilecte, Eric Le Sage, per oferir dins COMENTARI la temporada de Cambra un repertori centrat en el Classicisme i el Romanticisme germànic en el qual brillen el virtuosisme, el lirisme i l’art de la transcripció. Obre el programa l’alegre i somiadora Sonata K. 296, de Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, escrita originalment per a violí i adaptada per a flauta pel mateix Pahud. Mozart va ser el veritable impulsor del modern duo de violí i piano concebut des del diàleg d’igual a igual entre tots dos instruments. El geni de Salzburg va compondre aquesta peça a Manheim el 1778, en tres moviments que ja busquen l’esperit concertant amb esplendor. Els lieder del compositor vienès Franz Schubert són una font d’inspiració que, pel seu cor romàntic i la seva bellesa melòdica, han impulsat arranjaments per a diversos instruments solistes com el piano, el violoncel, el violí i, naturalment, la flauta. Es tracta, doncs, de cantar, de respirar l’aire poètic i la riquesa de matisos EMMANUEL PAHUD & que Schubert ofereix en un lied tan encisador com Trockne Blumen (Flors seques), d’un dels seus cicles més emblemàtics, Die schöne Müllerin (La bella molinera), ERIC LE SAGE sobre poemes de Wilhelm Müller. Amb les Fantasiestücke, op. 73 de Robert Schumann, originals per a clarinet, violí o violoncel i arranjades per Pahud, entrem de ple en els paisatges del Romanticisme germànic.

  • Autumn 2018/3 by Brian Wilson and Dan Morgan
    Second Thoughts and Short Reviews: Autumn 2018/3 By Brian Wilson and Dan Morgan Reviews are by Brian Wilson unless signed [DM] Autumn 2018/2 is here and Autumn 2018/1 is here. My apologies that this edition is heavily weighted towards the baroque and earlier – it’s just that so many early music recordings have caught my attention recently. At least Dan’s reviews help to redress the balance. Emusic.com: readers may recall that I have sometimes pointed to this as a reasonably priced source for downloads – mp3 only, but at the full 320kb/s and usually with pdf booklets. Their £0.42 per-track charging policy often means a Bruckner or Mahler symphony for £1.68 (actually less with some of their monthly tariffs); conversely, albums with many short tracks work out more – often very much more – than the CD. I can no longer recommend taking out one of their monthly subscriptions because they have lost almost all their classical music practically at a stroke. As I write, only Audite, Berlin Classics, Linn (apparently nothing more recent than 2015), Naïve (some) and Supraphon offer anything that I find usable there; otherwise, there’s a lot of old material transferred from LP on labels which I cannot vouch for. Some of these can’t even spell the names of the composer or the music on the cover – stick with the likes of Beulah (eavb.com) and Naxos Historical for such material, neither label now available from emusic.com. I received an email from emusic which seems to be promising jam tomorrow; I’ll let you know if it materialises.
