  • Decca Classics Will Release the Recording of Janáček's Glagolitic
    Czech Philharmonic recordings JANÁČEK: GLAGOLITIC MASS Jiří Bělohlávek, conductor Release date: Friday 31 August 2018 (4834080) On 31 August, Decca Classics will release the Czech Philharmonic's recording of Janáček's Glagolitic Mass, Sinfonietta, Taras Bulba and The Fiddler’s Child conducted by the late Jiří Bělohlávek. With the release of Smetana’s Má vlast (My Homeland) at the beginning of the year, the recordings mark some of the last that Bělohlávek made with the Orchestra for Decca Classics. 90 years since Janáček’s death in 1928, the Czech Philharmonic continues to champion the music of its homeland as it has done since its inaugural concert in 1896 when it gave the première of Dvořák's Biblical Songs conducted by the composer. Of the works featured on this release, Janáček's The Fiddler's Child and Sinfonietta both received their world premières from the Czech Philharmonic, the former under Otakar Ostrčil in 1917 and the latter under Václav Talich in 1926. Talich also conducted the Czech Philharmonic in the Prague première of Taras Bulba in 1924. The Orchestra made earlier recordings of the Glagolitic Mass with Karel Ančerl, Václav Neumann and Sir Charles Mackerras, but this is the first under Jiří Bělohlávek who chose to conduct the work at the First Night of the 2011 BBC Proms. Jiří Bělohlávek's recordings with the Czech Philharmonic for Decca Classics include Dvořák’s complete Symphonies & Concertos, Slavonic Dances and Stabat Mater, which was chosen as Album of the Week by The Sunday Times. Under its new Chief Conductor and Music Director, Semyon Bychkov, the Orchestra have recently embarked on The Tchaikovsky Project – recordings of the complete symphonies, the three piano concertos, Romeo & Juliet, Serenade for Strings and Francesca da Rimini.

  • Botticelli Triptych
    RESPIGHI Botticelli Triptych November 2014 6 From the President J.D. Scott Dear Friends: Since the 1920s The Philadelphia Orchestra has engaged young people, and indeed people of all ages, with the joys and thrills of orchestral music through the presentation of numerous programs. Today that tradition continues with expanded offerings, which are more important than ever. November is School Concert month at The Philadelphia Orchestra. This year’s theme, Music and Art: Instruments of Expression, explores how these two artistic forms serve as a means for understanding ourselves and the world around us. The concert, led by our new assistant conductor, Lio Kuokman, will make powerful connections between music and other creative forms in a guided tour through vibrant sounds and images. This month also brings the first of our Open Rehearsals for Students, allowing high school and college students a behind- the-scenes peek at how a concert comes together, and a rare opportunity to observe first-hand the artistic collaboration between musicians and conductors. It’s a fascinating way to get even closer to the music. From Sound All Around (our award-winning program for 3-5 year olds) to Family Concerts, from PreConcert Conversations to Free Neighborhood Concerts, PlayINs, Side-by-Side rehearsals, and LiveNote (our recently launched interactive concert guide for mobile devices), our collaborative learning offerings are a key element of the Orchestra’s mission. Our community offerings take Orchestra musicians offstage, on the road, and into the lives of music-lovers throughout the Philadelphia region, celebrating the wealth of musicianship in this area.

  • Janáček, Religion and Belief
    MUSICOLOGICA BRUNENSIA 44, 2009, 1–2 JOHN TYRRELL (CARDIFF) Janáček, religion and belief Famously in his final year, Janáček repudiated his pupil Ludvík Kundera’s con- tention that the ‘old man’ had at last made his peace with God and become again a believer. ‘Not an old man, not a believer! Young man!’ he wrote indignantly to him.1 Leoš Janáček was baptized into the Catholic Church2 and given Christian names (Leo Eugen) that celebrated papal and saintly associations rather than fam- ily ones.3 Church-going was a part of his young family life, as vividly described in his famous feuilleton Without Drums JW XV/199, and it became even more so when at the age of eleven he was enrolled as a resident chorister at the Au- gustinian Monastery in Staré Brno. The adults who surrounded him there were mostly monks, including his music teacher Pavel Křížkovský; on the few occa- sions he managed to get away it was to stay with his priest-uncle Jan Janáček, who took over responsibility for him after the death of his father in 1866. It was at the Augustinian Monastery, presumably, that he was confirmed into the Catholic Church. If there is doubt about this it is only because of the lack of documen- tation.4 Janáček was due to be confirmed on the eve of his thirteenth birthday in June 1867, but in a letter to Jan Janáček he announced that he should have ‘gone for holy confirmation’, but ‘since I had no clothes, again I couldn’t go.’5 1 LJ to Ludvík Kundera (Prague, 8 February 1928; reproduced in Bohumír Štědroň: Leoš Janá- ček v obrazech [Leoš Janáček in pictures] (Státní pedagogické nakladatelství, Prague, 1982), 43.

  • Janącek's London Visit
    JanàCek's London Visit ZDENKA E. FISCHMANN Janacek and his music are not very well-known in the Anglo-Saxon countries, and have only begun to penetrate there since the end of World War II. Some reasons for this lack of popularity are common to all Czech music, not Janacek alone. To mention the most obvious reasons: there are unequal opportunities for performances in different musical media. Symphonic, instrumental, and chamber music have a readier audience than vocal music in as unfamiliar a language as Czech. Therefore, Dvorak is better known and better represented in the American repertoire than Smetana. The lack of numerous opera houses on the North American continent, as compared with Europe, is another reason why essentially operatic composers like Smetana and Janacek are less often heard. But these are well-known facts. The question of style is subtler and, perhaps, open to discussion, but one might say simply, that Dvorak is more generally Slavic, Smetana most purely Czech, and Janacek much more personal and original; and this has set the order of preference to date, although these composers are now being reevaluated. Lack of in- formation and difficulty to access to Czech-language sources are also serious obstacles to the popularization of Czech music, especially that of Janacek. Nevertheless, Janacek is at last becoming known; his music is played more frequently than before, and the chronological sequence of "Smetana - Dvorak - Janacek" as "The Big Three of Czech music" is beginning to be firmly established. In Janacek's case, achievement of international recognition during his lifetime followed a certain pattern.
