Dies war jedoch nicht der Fall. Eine Bekanntmachung zu einem neuen Band erreichte uns bislang ebenfalls nicht. Wer nicht abwarten möchte, könnte mit Der Weg des Heilers eine weitere Reihe von Isa Day lesen. Unser Faktencheck klärt, ob eine Fortsetzung der Sternenmagie Bücher mit einem 6. Teil wahrscheinlich ist: STRINGS ATTACHED. Michael Stern, one of three grown children of the late violinist Isaac Stern, knew something was amiss after a call from a violist he knew in the Philadelphia Orchestra. His friend told him to check out a Web site that was auctioning off several rare instruments. "It's your dad's stuff," he said. Michael, the music director of the Kansas City Symphony, couldn't believe what he was hearing. "That's not possible," he said. But it was. And for Michael; his brother, David; and their sister, Shira, it was one clue that led them to believe there was something very wrong with the handling of their father's estate after he died at 81 in 2001. They dug deeper, and say they discovered the executor was paying himself more than $300,000 in fees and transferring assets to Stern's third wife. The children are suing the former executor, William Moorhead, for $2.25 million. They claim that his friendship with the third wife, Linda Reynolds Stern, led him to cut the children out of their father's estate--money, as well as violins, memorabilia and family photos--and not pay off a debt their father owed to a family friend. The children's lawyer, Mark D. Schwartz, said in a court transcript that Moorhead was "manipulated by Ms. Stern and her greed.'' Michael says that he and his siblings are not in it for the money. He says, "We won't let our father's name be dishonored." (Moorhead declined to comment on any aspect of this story.) Because the case was filed in probate court in New Milford, Conn., near a Stern home, it has remained out of the public eye until now. The court documents open a window into the troubled affairs of a man known largely for his musical achievements. His children spoke for the first time publicly about the case to NEWSWEEK. Isaac Stern was married three times, but spent most of his life with his second wife, Vera, the mother of the three children. He divorced her to marry Linda Reynolds, a former employee of the Washington, D.C., Opera, when he was 77 and, according to Stern's children, she said she was 47 (Linda Stern did not return repeated calls for comments; her lawyer declined to comment). Stern's children believed his assets were worth about $12 million. But Moorhead, they say, told them he left far less, and not enough to cover debts. One reason for the discrepancy, the children say: Moorhead allowed a transfer of certain assets, including a $3.5 million apartment on Central Park West in New York, to Linda. Moorhead claims in court documents that Isaac decided "to put the apartment in Linda's name" shortly before he died. Shira recently said in court that her father had promised the children the apartment. She also said that when her father signed it over to his wife, he was ill and barely lucid. "He would talk about an impending invasion of men from Mars," Shira said in transcripts. The children also take issue with the way they believe Moorhead managed many items left by their father. Among them: signed photos, paintings, violin bows, violins, rare letters and Judaica. "If there was an item that Linda Stern wanted, she'd call it--Bill Moorhead would call it--'a personal effect,' not inventory it, and it was gone," says Schwartz. In response to the charges, sources close to the case say, Moorhead insists he had a fiduciary obligation to get top value for Stern's belongings, that he earned his fee because of negotiations that spared the estate money, and that he never found hard evidence that Stern wasn't competent to turn his apartment over to his wife. In the end, Linda Stern sold the apartment and gave half the proceeds to the estate. What the children still want, however, is a full accounting of their father's life's work. Says Shira: "He was a public figure, and it gave him power to do really great things. But we had to share him with a lot of people. Things that would have meant a lot to us, we don't have." Unpacking the many lives of Isaac Stern. David Schoenbaum spent nine months digging through dozens of boxes of personal papers belonging to the world-famous violinist Isaac Stern in the archives of the Library of Congress. Among the thousands of artifacts, Schoenbaum discovered 18 invitations to the White House; correspondence with Britain’s Prince Charles, Henry Kissinger and a fifth grader from Oregon; and a calorie-logging calendar Stern discarded after two days. Schoenbaum’s extensive research ultimately produced his newest book, The Lives of Isaac Stern , a close examination of the very public activities of one of the most famous violin players to ever live. “Every day was a surprise,” the author said of his time in the archives, noting that the trove of documents had never been sorted or catalogued. “I had no idea what I would find when I opened one of those boxes.” What emerged was a chronicle that led Schoenbaum, 85, to divide his book, and Stern’s life, into four categories: immigrant, professional, public citizen and chairman of the board. “There was a personal history and a professional history and a public history and a philanthropic history,” he said. “He did more and different than any other player I guess since [19th-century Hungarian violinist] Joseph Joachim.” Stern, who died in 2001, was born in what is now Ukraine, and moved with his Jewish parents to San Francisco when he was a baby. At age 8 he began studying the violin, at 10 made his debut with the San Francisco Symphony and by 18 he was criss-crossing the United States on tour. At 23 he took the stage triumphantly at Carnegie Hall — an event he referred to as his “professional bar mitzvah” in the 1999 memoir he wrote with Chaim Potok. While Stern quickly became one of the most in-demand violinists around the world, Schoenbaum focuses much of the book on his societal and philanthropic ventures, including his love for and extensive ties to the State of Israel, “where audience after audience overflowed the available space,” he writes. “The self-assured informality of Israeli audiences in shorts and khaki shirts, score in hand, immediately enchanted him.” Isaac Stern on his way to a concert in Caesarea, Israel, in 1961. “At some point he counted up his visits to Israel and it was in the hundreds,” Schoenbaum told JI. “He was attached to the place… it captured his imagination for the same reason it captured the imagination of all American Jewish liberals. It was just a very appealing kind of place,” he added. “Of course he was received like a national hero.” Stern visited so often that he became the centerpiece of a full-page ad for El Al in 1993. He met with Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion, developed a close friendship with Jerusalem Mayor Teddy Kollek, and repeatedly canceled concerts elsewhere to rush to Israel and entertain its war-weary citizens, in 1967, again in 1973 — and at an infamous 1991 concert interrupted by an air raid siren, and carried out with the audience wearing gas masks. Beyond his concerts there, he also left a legacy in the Jerusalem Music Centre, the institution he dreamed up, fundraised for and inaugurated in 1973. He served as president of the America-Israel Cultural Foundation, was a founding member of the National Council on the Arts, and led a campaign to save Carnegie Hall in the 1960s, becoming president of the Carnegie Hall Corporation from 1960 until his death. Schoenbaum, a prolific author whose most recent book was a 700-page treatise titled The Violin , was very familiar with Stern’s star turns and extensive time in the spotlight. But even he was surprised at the breadth and variety of the violinist’s public connections.

    Current Review Isaac Stern plays Tchaikovsky: Violin Concerto, Op. 35 and Bartók: Violin Concerto No. 2, Sz. 112 aud 95.624 EAN: 4022143956248 4022143956248 Fanfare (Jerry Dubins - 2014.02.12) This release is of particular interest to me, for as one who was born, raised, and lived most of my life in San Francisco, I probably saw and heard Isaac Stern perform live in concert and recital more times than any other single artist. That, of course, was because of Stern’s close ties to the city in which he grew up and studied violin under Louis Persinger, one-time teacher of Menuhin, and with Naoum Blinder, the San Francisco Symphony’s then concertmaster. In 1936, Stern made his debut with the orchestra under the baton of Pierre Monteux, and though he would soon leave San Francisco to pursue a career as one of the world’s most recognized and sought-after violin virtuosos, he returned often to the city that had nurtured him to appear with the orchestra and in recital with his long-time accompanist, Alexander Zakin. In 1945, Stern signed a recording contract with Columbia, an association that lasted uninterrupted for 40 years, one of the longest such artist/record company alliances in history. And during those years, Stern joined forces with famous conductors, orchestras, and chamber musicians to record the entire mainstream violin concerto and chamber music repertoire, and beyond, often more than once. If you grew up in the 1950s and began collecting records in junior high and high school, as I did, the chances are you grew up with Isaac Stern spinning on your turntables.

  • Lineage Curated by Julia Bullock Soundbox
    LINEAGE CURATED BY JULIA BULLOCK SOUNDBOX 1 julia bullock on lineage “I’ve found that musicians often share a lot about the various influences in their lives— whether they be historical, political, philosophical, personal, or based on other mediums of art. They let diverse influences not only impact their work, but find ways to let them register explicitly. It’s like musicians are hyper conscious of their lineage—they honor it and value it. So, as I continue to follow along the path and legacy of artists that came before me, lineage has become increasingly important—it’s a part of knowing from where I originated and letting that inform where I envision myself going. The musicians on this SoundBox program could not make music all together in one place, or even at one time, but the very nature of this program—which links material that spans across almost 900 years—captures an audio and visual snapshot of how lineage can inform, influence, impact, and express itself in a musical context.” 2 Esa-Pekka Salonen SAN FRANCISCO SYMPHONY MUSIC DIRECTOR San Francisco Symphony Music Director Esa-Pekka Salonen has, through his many high-profile conducting roles and work as a leading composer, shaped a unique vision for the present and future of the contemporary symphony orchestra.

  • The Role of the Arts in Relations Between Soviet Russia and the Republic Of
    JOURNAL OF SOCIAL EDUCATION AND INTERDISCIPLINARY SCIENCE UNIVERSITY "FEHMI AGANI" GJAKOVA The Role of the Arts in Relations between Soviet Russia and the Republic of Turkey 1922-1944 Hasan KARACAN Cyprus Science University, Tourism Faculty, North Cyprus [email protected] Abstract: In the period of their modernization, the USSR (Soviet Russia) and the newly formed Republic of Turkey used cultural relations to promote good relations between their countries, which in our twenty-first century translates to the use of “soft power.” In the period of 1922 to 1944, cultural exchange translated to mutual help with shaping new cultures. An awareness of uses and necessary restrictions regarding propaganda would emerge. According to the correspondence between the wives of Soviet politician and educationalist Lev Borisovich Kamenev and Turkish president Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the Russian-Turkish exchange started with cinema and theater, and progressed with other forms of art, especially music. The introduction of Marxist literary theory from the Russian side would expand to a whole new aesthetic throughout continental Europe, and eventually go full circle back to the Middle East in the modern trend towards mainstream literature. Therefore, this particular correspondence documenting these first cultural exchanges is of great interest. The author of the article has worked from both Russian and Turkish records, translating for the benefit of our English readers. Keywords: Soviet Russia, Republic of Turkey, good relations, performing arts, soft power, Marxist literary theory 1. Introduction Olga Kameneva,1 the wife of the prominent Soviet politician Lev Borisovich Kamenev,2 who would later become the head of the VOKS organization (All-Union Society for Cultural Relations with Foreign Countries) sent a letter to Mustafa Kemal Pasha's wife Latife Hanım on May 14, 1924;3 he gave her information about the arts and the situation of women in the Soviet Union.
